Already configure audio, video device in gstreamer-properties and Voice/Video settings in pidgin.
Am I missing anything?
]]>Already having the option "Media -> Video call, Audio call, etc." means that my Pidgin was compiled with webcam support?
When I want to enabled it, I get this message on the chat window:
"Error creating conference".
(I also have one plugin for webcam settings)
]]>Just an FYI to anyone who is wondering, gstreamer-properties can be used to select which audio and video devices pidgin uses.
I cannot find gstreamer-properties. What package provides that?
gnome-media

]]>@piezoelectric, it works. Make sure you have the correct packages installed (farsight2 and some gstreamer stuff).
Yeah, I had farsight2 as a dependency to pidgin. I needed gstreamer0.10-bad installed manually though.

Any possible solutons?
I found a solution - I didn't have gstreamer0.10-good and gstreamer0.10-bad, so I've just installed them and now pidgin works well. I can call to jabber users, but I didn't try to call to gtalk users, gonna test it tomorrow.
Update: Everything works: jabber-to-jabber (pidgin2pidgin, both video and voice calls), Gtalk to pidgin and pidgin to Gtalk (both video and voice calls). Olalala! :-)
]]>However, I have been able to voice chat myself (not sure if that's just narcissistic or schizophrenic) either direction, GTalk -> Jabber & Jabber -> GTalk, but video chat shows the initial window and after accepting, Pidgin quits. I have also tried multiple machines on the same network. Not able to create a chat that way at all.

Solution from ubuntu forum http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p= … stcount=93 doesn't work. Does anybody have the same problem? Any possible solutons?
]]>Perfect!, I've created the package from ABS. I've modified PKGBUILD with --enable-vv and I've enable "Voice and Video". But I try to chat with gtalk user (XMPP protocol) and the options of "medium" are disabled. I can't to select options, they are inactive.
Any ideas?.
did you installed optional dependency for farsight2? you _need_ that
