Yahoo disconnects when requesting Video Call

[Dave M]

Binary package hint: empathy

Initiating any Video Call or Voice call to a Yahoo contact results in being disconnected from Yahoo.

That status says, "No Reason" for the disconnect.

thats because yahoo a/v calling is not supported in empathy and the fact that empathy is showing calling icon is a another bug that should be fixed soon.

   Thanks for the quick response.

   Is there any webcam support in Empathy -- for Yahoo or other IM
protocols (gtalk, msn?)

Regards,
  Dave
