Description Nicolò Chieffo 2010-05-27 07:49:00 UTC 
Currently empathy can't send video to gmail clients (but it can display the received one).
This issue was tested in the telepathy bugzilla, and a cause has been found: it is that the x264enc element defaults to the "Main" profile instead of "baseline", but Google's stuff only does baseline.

Empathy must set some more properties on the encoder
Comment 1 Guillaume Desmottes 2010-05-27 07:54:22 UTC 
This is currently blocked by gstreamer not having API to easily choose the profile. We are working on that.

Once gst is fixed, Empathy should be modified (trivial) to use these new settings.
Comment 2 Guillaume Desmottes 2010-05-27 07:58:32 UTC 
Oh there is already a bug depending on the right gst bug.
