Fedora generally don't include patented codecs such as h264 as a matter of policy. You usually have to go to a non-fedora repo like rpmfusion for those codecs. Check which repo your x264 package came from - I bet it's rpmfusion or some other repo, not fedora. Blame laws on software patents for this situation.
The fedora-packaged linphone in F12 is rather old (2.1.1) and doesn't appear to have any video codecs installed, probably due to the patent policy. Rpmfusion don't appear to have it packaged, so the alternatives are to build it yourself or find some other precompiled version.
