Hi again,

I've looked through the logs, and linphone is showing some sign of video

I find "message: Cannot open directory /usr/lib64/liblinphone/plugins:
No such file or directory" strange. Why is linphone expecting that
directory? The plugins are all in /usr/lib64/mediastreamer/plugins.
I also don't understand that it says "message: Plugin loaded
(/usr/lib64/mediastreamer/plugins/libmsx264.so.0)", but when I go to
Preferences and Video Codecs, the H264 codec is displayed as red.
 
What can I do?

Manuel
