Bug Description
Binary package hint: empathy
Video calls seem to mostly work sometimes. This is not the user experience we want subject to the ubuntu users. It does seem to mostly work, but periodically crashes and frequently fails to connect.
Just tested this with empathy 2.28.0-0ubuntu1, libtelepathy-
We need to look into making this work better or perhaps disabling video call support in empathy.

In karmic, we are having trouble with video calls. After the telepathy-farsight update to 0.0.11-2 we are having more success, but currently when placing video calls we get just a black screen for the remote video. The local video preview is displaying video and audio seems fine.
telepathy- mission- control- 5 5.3.1-1 farsight0 0.0.11-2 .10-0 0.0.15-1ubuntu1
telepathy-gabble 0.8.3-1
libtelepathy-
libgstfarsight0
I am attaching logs for both gabble and empathy, let me know if there is other specific information that would be useful.
