Asterisk's support forvideo over SIP is very rudimentary. Only to 
video codecs H.261, H.263, and H.263+ are supported, andeven then, not 
very well. There is no support for dynamic negotiation of frame rates, etc. 
Queries to the -dev list, as to progress on these features were recently met 
with silence. We will be looking to jump into the project to support our own 
initiatives in the area of video in a few weeks. 

Until things change, your best bet for connecting SIP video phones is 
SER.

You are very welcome to join the group that works with this. There is  
an open bug report in the SIP section of the bug tracker to enhance  
the videosupport setting, please test that code and add your test  
results to the bug report.


There are others out there that work with video in Asterisk and I  
have some new code from a developer that will be added to a separate  
branch soon, also for testing. Your input and additions is very much  
needed.


If we work fast, we might get some of the smaller additions into  
Asterisk 1.4, more substantial changes into the release after that.  
But that requires testing and a lot of help!
