Title: Message
I can
see my video in ekiga on the PC with camera (PC1). I can make a call to
another PC (PC2) either through my Asterisk Win32 server on my network, or
through ekiga. I have full duplex audio between the PC1 and PC2 but I
cannot see the video on PC2. I do see the options change in the video area
in ekiga on PC2 that determine the position of the incomming video (Picture in
Picture settings) but they do not change anything when I select
them.
I have
tested SIP video with several other SIP phones - one in particular - x-lite on
my network through asterisk so I know it works. I have also tested video
through my router web baised conferencing sites and it works fine
too.
Do I
have to do anything special to enable sending the video with ekiga
??
In fact I've received video on the Windows
2.0.11 beta too. The only thing I haven't had working is simultaneous
transmission and reception of video, since I only have one webcam
handy.
Windows XP Pro. This is on the company's LAN
where there is no SIP server of any kind and no SIP access to external
providers.

Yes; I can see my video; the far end can see my
video. I've not had a call with anyone who has a camera at their end
so I don't yet know whether incoming video works. This is the Windows
2.0.11 beta.
Dave
Anyone have video working on the Windows
Beta of EKIGA ?
Hi,
I am a new
Ekiga user. I have to compliment your efforts - Ekiga is a very
nice piece of software !!
I have
successfully installed Ekiga on 2 PCs (PC1 and PC2) on my home network
running Windows XP Pro on both PCs. The software installed
beautifully on both PCs. I was able to configure SIP through my
Asterisk Win32 Server (On a third Windows XP PC - PC3). I can make
full duplex voice calls through Asterisk WIn32 using Ekiga between PC1
and PC2 with no issues. What I really want to do is video
conference between PC1 and PC2 through Asterisk.
I have not
set up a SIP account on your web site - I just want to do SIP calls on
my private network.
PC1 has an
older analog video capture card - Pinnacle DC10+ installed. I have
an old VHS video camera plugged into it. It works very well
under Windows XP and is recognized by Ekiga. I can see the
video from the DC10+ on the local screen under
Ekiga.
PC2 has a
newer USB video camera installed. It also works very well under
WindowsXP - although it is slower and with much poorer resolution than
the DC10+. The USB camera is also recognized by Ekiga on PC2 and I
can see its video on the local Ekiga window.
When I make
a call from PC1 to PC2 I expected the video from PC1 to be visible in a
window on PC2, and of course the video from PC1 on a window on
PC2. This does not happen. I only see the local video on
both PC1 and PC2. Under the view on both Ekiga installations I see
the options for "Remote Video", "Both(Picture-in-Picture)", "Both
(Side-by-Side)", and "Both (Both in New Windows)" - but NONE of these
options can be selected - they are grayed out. Should this be
working ??? Do I have something configured incorrectly ? Do
I have to purchase an upgrade ?
I have
successfully configured another piece of Video conference software
(Zoomcall Pro) and the video from these same PCs works fine in video
conference mode. Unfortunately Zoomcall REQUIRES you to
communicate through their server on the Internet. I don't want to
do that - I want to stay on my private network.
Please help
any way you can.
Also - as
you might have guessed - I have quite an elaborate set up in my lab area
so I would be willing to test any new software you might need a third
party to test.
Thanks,
Kevin
