Ubuntu Multimedia :: Video Call With Empathy Using GTalk?

Apr 1, 2010

I'm trying to get video calls to work using Empathy 2.30.0. I'm running the 10.04 beta right now, but I've had this problem ever since I installed Empathy. The problem is essentially that I don't even see the option to do a video call with my contact. I can do an audio call, but the option to do a video call is greyed out.

My webcam is built-in (the computer is a Dell Inspiron 1545n). I know that it _can_ work under Linux, as I regularly use Skype. Also, just after I upgraded to 10.04, I briefly had the "video call" option, but when the program crashed I tried to call, and then the option was gone again. What was strange is that for a little bit, before it crashed, my webcam was working, and I could see the image it was receiving. So it can't even be that Empathy just can't use my webcam.

Does anyone know anything about this problem? Everywhere I've looked says that Empathy should be able to make calls using GTalk.

Ubuntu :: Turn Video Off In Empathy ?

May 19, 2011

How do I turn off video chat support in empathy. I know that this was a long awaited feature, but frankly the gmail voice browser plugin works better. The issue is when I log into my gmail account in the browser and someone "video calls" me empathy intercepts the call and rings. I would prefer that it not do this, and let the browser catch the call. Now I have to shut empathy down or log out of gmail in it first.

Ubuntu Multimedia :: Using Pidgin For An Audio/video Call?

Mar 19, 2010

I'm using a PS3 Eye, which seems to work out of the box on my Ubuntu 9.10 system (both Skype, and Cheese). When I have a pidgin chat window open for one of my contacts, in the media options (under Conversation) the audio, video, and audio/video option is ghosted out (non selectable).

I have the Video plugin checked (ticked), with the input video selected (the cam shows up in the list, and it's selected): for the Eye, I select for both the Audio and Video device. But when I close the plugin configuration window, it defaults back to "Default" which i'm guessing is part of the problem.The audio and video options in pidgin is relative to my system correct? So even if the other user doesn't have that capability, it'll still let me use audio/video for them?

Oct 1, 2010

Is there any application I can use on a Mac and people can use on their iPhones 4 to do video calls?

If beyond Mac OS X apps you can also mention Ubuntu Linux and WIndows apps that can do that too.

As far as I checked, skype is not an option.

Ubuntu :: Skype Video Call Is A Odd Shade Of Blue / Test Camera Outside Of It?

May 17, 2010

Ever sense i updated to 10.4 skype's video calling for me has turned a light shade of blue, nothing that really tampers with my call, just annoying the snot out of me because the person im talking to is blue.

Also I do not think its my cameras drivers because not only am I a shade of blue, but the person I am talking to is also blue and they say that I on their screen look fine. When i run a camera test with skype everything is a shade of blue as well.

I cannot for the life of me find a way to test my camera outside of skype.

Programming :: Make System Call From An Automatically Started Daemon?

Apr 2, 2011

i've written small tool in C which makes measurements on my router (OpenWrt White Russian).

It is working as a deamon. If the tool is started manually, everything works fine. If it is started per script on startup, the following system call doesn't work :

Code: sprintf(command,"/bin/cat /root/%s%s | /usr/bin/ssh -p2222 user(at)host -i /root/.ssh/id_rsa "/bin/cat >> result/%s%s"", apmac, source, apmac, dest);

rc = system (command); the returned rc in this case is 256.

first i thought it is a problems with the user rights for the tool, so i have added +s to it. but that didn't help. as i said, when the daemon is started by hand, the system call works fine.
