When starting a video conversation with another user who is using Empathy on an updated Ubuntu 10.10 machine the quality is terrible. See attached screenshot to appreciate how bad the quality is. I have the same pixelated look to the conversation partner on the other end.
This is not an internet speed issue as video quality of Skype is reasonably clear.
