[Bug 657453] Re: Can't Establish Video Calls on MSN

 

David

This bug is about AV calls in MSN with MS Live Messenger users.  I
suppose it is possible to use an MSN connection with someone not using
MS Live Messenger, but using some other IM client, because you can then
negotiate a codec that will work.  However, as far as I understand it,
MS Live Messenger will only work with the proprietary WMV3 video and the
Siren audio codecs.   ebuddy is, of course, a web based IM client, so
who knows how it works.

If you have problems establishing AV calls with other protocols, then
please open a new bug for them.

Title:
  Can't Establish Video Calls on MSN

Status in “telepathy-butterfly” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: empathy

  When I try to establish a video call with an MSN user, I can see my
  webcam, but not the other user's. The other user see's two 'No Webcam'
  symbols. If they initiate the video call the same thing happens.
