H.263 profile 0 is the one I use. AFAIK, H.261 is better suitaed for 
high-quality circuit-switched networks, whereas H.263 is made for packet 
networks. I think that Simon plans to support Theora in the future, but 
I do not know in which timeframe.

This is a build-time choice (--enable-video), not a run-time one.

Picking Linphone from CVS is generally a good thing, especially if you 
want to have help from this list on experimental topics like video. I do 
not knwo whether the Debian package is built with video or not.
