Created attachment 35506 [details] gabble debug log of a video call I'm running ubuntu lucid with the telepathy PPA, so these are the packages version telepathy-gabble 0.9.11-1~ppa10.04+1 mission-control-5 5.4.0-1~ppa10.04+1 empathy 2.30.1-1+ppa10.4 libgstfarsight0.10-0 0.0.18-1~ppa10.04+1 I'm unable to send my video to a gmail web client: I only see the other end's video. This happens every time, wither if I start the video chat or if it is started in the gmail web client. The attachment contains the gabble log obtained in the empathy debug menu.
Can you please attach the "empathy log" too (and the matching gabble log) for a call? Thank you
Created attachment 35561 [details] gabble.log I obtained all those logs by: - clicking on video call - answering on the other end (gmail on windows) - waiting fot the image to appear - closing the call
Created attachment 35562 [details] empathy.log
Created attachment 35563 [details] missino-control.log I don't know it if it's useful, but here's mission-control log too.
Also reported at: https://bugs.launchpad.net/telepathy-gabble/+bug/573845 It seems that video is not broadcasted for everyone. Nicolo, did you test it with pidgin?
What should I test? gmail -> pidgin or empathy -> pidgin?
gmail (windows) > pidgin or vicecersa
gmail pidgin = same problem
then we can assume this is not actually a telepathy bug... maybe google screwed with their servers ;)
What do you mean? gmail -> gmail works...
Oh, and chatting in #empathy showed up that this problem is not presend in debian (I'm using ubuntu)
(In reply to comment #11) > Oh, and chatting in #empathy showed up that this problem is not presend in > debian (I'm using ubuntu) Nicolo do you know which Debian version should I try to confirm the bug is not present? Does that mean it's an ubuntu bug? Thanks,
Well I don't know. But I remember I was chatting with "sjoerd"
I've asked him: he uses debian sid
(In reply to comment #14) > I've asked him: he uses debian sid Thank you so much!
moving to telepathy-farsight as that makes more sense
Ok, we found the cause of this problem. It is that the x264enc element defaults to the Main profile instead of baseline. But Google's stuff only does baseline. It probably means we need to set some more properties on the encoder.. That's done by Empathy.
Thanks, I'll forward it to empathy. but why it works in debian? Isn't this strange?

Debian has probably a different version of the H264 encoder.
