Re: [Linphone-users] There is no video in IOS app for 3rd party software, in iphone device

[Johan Pascal]

Dear Xavier,
you linphone iOS build support VP8 codec only which doesn't seem to be supported by Jitsi(see the answer message from Jitsi, the video mline is empty which means no compatible video codec has been found) which explains why you can't establish video call between jitsi and linphone as you built it.

To support video calls between linphone and jitsi, you must either found  a way to have jitsi supporting VP8 or enable other video codec(like open H264) in your linphone build.

regards,

johan

I have successfully installed Linphone on my Iphone 6 device, through this very helpful source (https://github.com/BelledonneCommunications/linphone-iphone). The app is deployed in my device, I’ve configured it to use “ostel.co” voip server online, and works like a charm. I can place calls and send messages. I cannot, however, place video calls. There is no video, whether I start an audio call and initiate video feed, or if I start a video call from the start. It doesn’t work. I am using linphone on Iphone, and a 3rd party app in the desktop. If I use linphone also on the desktop, the video call gets established but with POOR quality (another problem to solve later on). I wan't to use linphone with 3rd party software, what needs to be done?

Can you please help me solve the issue? I’ve configured my liblinphone-sdk for non third party, as there is a chance for commercial licensing later on. Linphone sdk has the following configuration, and I am surprised video does not work at all:

The app store does not work with the 3rd party application as well. Here attached are the logs of the source code.
