Quoting Hugo Silva <[email protected]>:
Hi all,
I've been searching for a working solution to use audio+video and sip on
FreeBSD. So far the webcam is working with webcamd's/v4l help and that's
a good start.
I tried linphone and ekiga3, neither of which worked (both ports are
outdated as well). There are instructions to build ekiga4 from source @
their website but I have not attempted that yet.
Just wondering, and for future reference, what are FreeBSD users using
as a SIP client for audio+video these days? (skype is not an option for
me for various reasons not worth getting into -- please let's keep it on
topic lest it derails like this thread last year
http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-questions/2011-June/231017.html)
I suggest Jitsi [1]. It is an open source audio/video and chat
software written in Java that supports multiple protocols including
SIP. Specifically, the former name of it was SIP Communicator.
It was listed as a wanted port in Wiki and in the beginning of
December I submitted it as a new port in GNATS. If you want to install
it on your system and test it, please download from the PR [2] the
jitsi.shar file and install it as usual (make install clean).
