Could you please specify your setup (Codec, Resolution, etc.) Also which version
of ekiga are you using? SVN trunk or stable 2.0.11?
As far as I know its possible to configure more that 1 Mbit/s in the SVN
version, however there is an architectural limitation in OPAL that would
prevent bitrates > 2.5 Mbit/s for now (provided using a fast CPU)

Hmm, are you actually offering money for someone to spend time on a specially
customized version of Ekiga for you? Or perhaps you would like to join the
people working on video? There are always helpful people around that are
willing to give you a hand provide you will also contribute something to the
community (that does not necessarily mean coding)

The wiki is a good start for information about compiling ekiga, both on windows
and on Linux. In case you are still missing some information feel free to ask
and add it to the wiki yourself.
