Ekiga video stuck

[Michal Svoboda]

Hi,

Sometimes, in the middle of the conversation, Ekiga seems to give up on
video transmission and stops sending frames (or they somehow don't get
received). The net result is that the video seems stuck on the other
side and there is no way to unstick it unless you hang up and redial.

It seems, but I am not sure, that this is triggered when somehow the
line becomes cluttered and Ekiga can't push enough bandwidth through.

Anyone else seen this happen? Is/will there be a way to restart
transmitting video without hanging up? (Pause/unpause does not work.)

Thanks,
Michal Svoboda

I had it under Windows XP with libtheora-1.0 (but not with an earlier
git version) when Ekiga ate up more than 80% CPU. May be the rate
controls of Opal and Theora disagree somehow.
