It has not worked previously for Yahoo or for Gtalk. I will have to look into it further.

Hello. Have you had this feature working in empathy at some point
before? As far as I can see, as per
http://live.gnome.org/Empathy/FAQ#For_which_protocols_does_Empathy_support_audio_and_video_chat.3F
and my testing, empathy does not support video chat with Yahoo. Video
chat should work with Gtalk though, so if that's not working for you
that may be a separate issue.

Title:
  empathy won't allow yahoo video chat

Status in “empathy” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: empathy

I right click on my Yahoo contact in Empathy and when the drop down menu appears, the only option that I can actually click on is "chat". Everything else is greyed out so that you cannot chose them.
