Dear Developers
I'm glad to use your client voip, currently I'm using "Linphone 3.5.2-10" on Debian Jessie (3.2.0-4-amd64 #1 SMP Debian 3.2.41-2 x86_64 GNU/Linux) and it works properly.
By default your client doesn't have the msx264 plugin so I downloaded the source of "msx264-1.4.2.tar.gz" from your website and installed correctly.

I installed the programm correctly with "checkinstall" package.
After restarted Linphone I couldn't find the new plugin inside the list of video Codec.
So I tried to resolve it but without lucky.
From the beginnig I encoutered this problem: if I use with the file ./configure this option --prefix=/usr/lib the installation create a wrong pattern: /usr/lib/lib/mediastreamer/plugins.
Well, I could resolve changing it in --prefix=/usr, but I preferred to leave the default configuration and creating a symbolic link from /usr/local/lib/mediastreamer/plugins to /usr/lib/mediastreamer/plugins and /usr/lib/linphone/plugins hoping to find the right pattern for showing the msx264 plugin inside the list of Video Codec of Linphone.
But nothing happened and the msx264 plugin is still missing inside the video codec list.
Thank for your attention,
Daniele
