Rep Power: 12  | ShaPlus Bandwidth Meter - Freeware to display bandwidth consumed for session, day and month Try this meter and check usage when using webcam /chat. You can reset the totals to zero. |

Rep Power: 5 | yes.. i think by band width meter only it will be easy to see.. as cams will 1 mpx will transfer more data than normal VGA cams.. and less than 2 or 5 mpx cams while chatting.. so difficult to preidict. best way will be check via bandwidth meter as above ppl said.. use shaplus bandwidth meter or DU meter.. |

Rep Power: 12 | @adi420 The BW used depends on the video audio codecs/ application MSN messenger/Yahoo Messenger/Skype, the web cam used at either end etc. Better not to guess the figure/s. can vary from user to user. |

Rep Power: 1 | i have 1.3 megapixel webcam and use skype and thats how much it costs me...yeah it will vary depending on how much we talk as well ...but thats my average usage. I dont have any incoming video from other end i.e. the user at other end doesn't have webcam. The best way to check usage is to use bandwidth meter as suggested. |
