[Ekiga-list] problems with video call using H263 codec

[<gsteng02 o2online de>]

Hi,

if I try to call X-Lite running on Win32 from Ekiga 3.0.1 I can't get a video 
connection. Audio works fine, though.
X-Lite only supports the H263 video codec, but it doesn't seem to harmonize 
with ekiga's h263-1998 which I can see in Preferences/video/codecs.

I had a look on the Session Description Protocol in the SIP/Invite frame with 
Wireshark:
When I call from ekiga, ekiga offers video  as a MIME type "h263-1998", when I 
call from X-Lite, the MIME type is "H263". Is it possible this doesn't match?


My second question is why I can't see any entry for H263+ as an available 
codec in Preferences/video/codecs.
When I run ekiga -d 4 it seems that everything is OK with H263+:
gerhard pfeil:~> ekiga -d 4
        dyna.cxx(111)   H263+   DYNA    Successfully loaded 'libavcodec.so.52'
        dyna.cxx(331)   H263+   DYNA    Successfully loaded libavcodec library 
and verified functions
   h263-1998.cxx(994)   H263+   Codec   Enabled

Is this normal?

best regards

Gerhard
