This reminds me, also, Debian users can find v4 in "experimental" -- it seems to solve a registration issue I'd been having with 3.2.7. Mark ___ ekiga-list mailing list ekiga-list@gnome.org https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/ekiga-list

[Ekiga-list] Snapshots repository? (Debian amd64)

I want to keep on top of 4.0.0 to see how the wrinkles are getting ironed out. (My current issue with the ekiga in Debian experimental is that often when I receive a call, I hear the ringing, and I see a quick flash of something, but I have nothing I can push to actually accept the call!) The snap

I am having trouble with ekiga not registering when behind a BT Home Hub running software version 8.1.H.U (Type A), whether or not I enable network detection in the preferences. The -d 4 log is pasted at http://pastebin.com/bd6kAWgp In probing the port forwarding I set up, I discover that it is d

I am still trying to have a call work. Both sites are behind NAT with the recommended ports forwarded, except that, from the caller, UDP 5060 can't be forwarded (though other ports can), so ekiga is configured to use port 5050 instead, and is compiled with Eugen's hack to not just give in when symm

Thanks to Eugen we now have calling mostly working, except that there are stability problems that seem very dependent on which codecs are chosen, especially video codec. For instance, theora often freezes and H264 lasts for maybe a minute before the call hangs up. I can even completely crash Ekiga
