I would rather see a listing of Ekiga's presence in various distros on the front page - rather than bottom of the roadmap page, also links to the debian/ubuntu/fedora etc repos. this would tell me that Ekiga was broadly available in my favorite ditros and it would also be nice if it lists the version in each repo. Even if it was just green light for current release, amber for stale release and red for not in repo. Snapshots are info for the developer community - which should have a separate "home" page - as part of Community maybe? I would also like to see, on the Ekiga.org page, a graph (RRDTool) and even RSS feed on the status of Ekiga.net - this should be the "designated offsite" goto notice location to get info on Ekiga.net when there may be problems. A graph of utilization would also go a long way in getting some well deserved credit for Ekiga.net. * a listing of latest minor revision changes followed by a major revision summary works best IMHO - you could even add a "coming milestones" section - more of a coming features set than the developer focus that the raodmap page seams to have. minor revisions changes summary (3.2.6 specifics & diff back to 3.0) major revision achievement summary (3.0) next major revision objectives (4.0) distro status listing & links ekiga.net graph & RSS ekiga.net news much thx for Ekiga - great stuff! download page made me laugh - Ponies! ___ ekiga-list mailing list ekiga-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/ekiga-list

This is a bandaid at best - while I'm happy to use Slackware & OBSD - it looks like both Fedora and Ubuntu have gone with Pulseaudio and it is my understanding that applications that work with pulseaudio essentially get their own interface to the sound system - rather than break all the other apps that work with Pulse audio for these distributions, you should be able to configure a bypass for Ekiga that takes it to Jack or Alsa directly. wish I knew enough to help at this stage - ss_ss If you do work it out, and Ekiga remains unhappy with Pulseaudio, I would appreciate it if you could post it to this list - I'm about to install Fedora9 and want to use Ekiga too.

[Ekiga-list] Scaling video in Ekiga?
Hi all For those who remember my requests for help in early January with problems calling from Windows to Linux and vice versa whilst on the same lan, thank you for all your help - everything worked fine once we were in different places. Phew! I now have a new help request. I have a 640x480 webcam built-in to my laptop running linux. My mother-in-law has a lower resolution webcam built-in to her laptop running WindowsXP. Her video looks clean and quick, with no blockyness on the default maximum video bandwidth. My video (from what she tells me and from using the 500 echo) is much slower if the Quality Setting is all the way to the right, and blocky as soon as you start going across to frame rate priority. This is the case even on higher bandwidth settings. However, if I don't move, the picture is lovely nice and sharp! Both video images are displayed at the same size, but the incoming 'looks' to be lower resolution. Monitoring the bandwidth usage on linux shows that the incoming data (her video) is much lower than the outgoing (my video), although that is after I have increased the max bandwidth of course! So I think that the problem must be that my webcam is transmitting video at full 640x480. Is this possible? Can it be downsized? Thanks for your help.

I have uninstalled ekiga, deleted the settings in gconf, reinstalled, added profile, seems behaviour is the same :-( I have attached the debug. Initial attempt at connection from linux to windows failed. Connection in the other direction seemed to work, but failed after 30 odd seconds on the linux end. Is it the same thing? Is my install somehow doomed? Thanks for your advice so far.

Re: [Ekiga-list] Windows/Linux: won't send video
Tried removing account, and setting up again, and had trouble with the video 'not working with the format'. Uninstalled, rebooted, installed again. Video now works locally again, but it remembers all my settings. Where are the settings for ekiga? I tried looking for /home/user/.ekiga, but there wasn't anything there. Currently, I can initiate the call from either computer, and it doesn't terminate at one end. However, it still only shows local video.

I have successfully run the echo test for both laptops(audio and video, linux and windows), and I am quite excited about the framerate/image quality control, which along with the control of max bandwidth control is going to be great! I presume this rules out a firewall issue? At the moment, both computers are on the same wlan, which is useful for testing. However, in real use the computers are going to be on opposite sides of the country. I have attached the debug from linux, and the stderr from windows. The stderr doesn't seem to contain much, and the stdout and the 'x' file are both empty. However, the linux file seems to have lots in. The behaviour described yesterday has swapped today, with a call started on linux never connecting, and a call starting on Windows connects, but quits after half a minute or so on linux. In the log, I have done as above. The first call is initiated on linux from ed.mcdonagh to hilary.sutherland. Windows never receives the call. The second call is initiated from Windows, and accepted on linux. The video is never transmitted either way (voice is harder to tell when they are both on my lap!) and the call is terminated by linux after half a minute or so. Windows doesn't know the call has stopped. Thanks.

[Ekiga-list] Windows/Linux: won't send video
Hi I have tried searching the archives to see if my questions have been answered, but it didn't look like it. Apologies if you have had this scenario a thousand times before! (Please do refer me to previous solutions if they exist.) And happy new year. I am trying to use ekiga to video calls from Linux to Windows. Sound would be useful too, but video is the main use as one party is deaf. Both installs seem to set up fine, and both happily show the local video using the built in webcams (both are laptops). The problem is that when in a call from Linux to Windows, you can still only see the local video, not the remote. Versions: Linux - Ubuntu Gutsy Gibbon, Ekiga install from the repositories, version 2.0.11 Video is using V4L2 plugin. Laptop is an Asus A8SC with the onboard VGA UVC WebCam Windows - Windows XP, Ekiga from the website, version 2.0.11 Video is using VideoForWindows plugin (same behaviour for DirectShow). Laptop is a Sony Vaio VGN-SZ2XP/C with the onboard webcam. Problem details: If the call is initiated from linux, windows offers to accept the call, and the connection seems to work. However, you only see the local video. In the Windows Ekiga General History it says (among other things, including stuff about opening speex) Opened codec H261 for transmission Opened codec H261 for reception Then about 30 seconds later it says Closed codec H261 which was opened for transmission Closed codec H261 which was opened for reception (and the same for SPEEX). Remote user is unreachable As far as the linux general history is concerned, the call is still open no problem! If the call is initiated from Windows, the general history log in windows says that the Remote user rejected the call. In reality, linux never comes up with an accept/reject option :-( I don't know if there are several different problems here, or if it is all the same cause. If anyone can help, or give some ideas of what to try, I would really appreciate it. We use video to communicate with my mother in law, so if I can get this working that would be great. Both systems can use Skype for video calls, but I can't get the picture quality I want, and would rather avoid skype and proprietary solutions if I can. With sign language, the frame rate is more important than the absolute image quality most of the time, so I was quite excited to see that you could set a preference for this with ekiga.
