Nope.
Linphone has video too.
Audio codecs are speex (16 and 8 KHz), gsm, pcmu, among others. I suggest

start even a single-player game, a server is started for the client to
connect to locally. The only real limiting factors in hosting a server
I know what a server is ;)
I assumed that you have to install those apps on a running _webserver_ and
that's what i didn't want to do if i can avoid it.
And yeah, i was mainly thinking about speed and connectivity..
i just checked my upload and it's about 800 kbit/sec,
so the resulting video

Just give her a link and surely Safari should work decently with it, no?

Also, don't forget to go to media encryption and choose ZRTP. You don't want

Hello.
Having had the same problems, I would suggest Linphone. Is free software and
it works very well in android, mac, linux, windows whatever.
Good luck with that japanese chick, I hear they are into kinky stuff ;-D good
luck my friend.
If you need help with linphone (which you probably
Thanks, but i would have to set up my own vmux server, right?
I don't have the hardware and time to setup my own server at the moment,
sadly.

Are all xmpp server fast enough to do voice and video?
She'll open the mail and just follow the instructions - everybody can do
that as long as he/she knows how to read
hmm sound easy in theory ;)
i hope she'll get it done.
But first i have to look for a working solution and maximize my chances of
succeeding fast by choosing the best programs...
oh and i forgot... the best microphone i have is installed on my cell phone
running replicant;
so solutions that work between android and iphone would be appreciated, but i

and/or voice chat with me msg me and i'll send my address. I'd like to
try it :).
tox didn't work the last time i tried it (a month ago). neither did hello

quantum - write your girl a mail and explain step by step the proceeding of

Have you tried with Mumble[1]? Don't know if is the kind of software that you
want as you can only talk (not a big deal if you think of it as a phone
call). There are servers in Japan and it's very simple to use (the hardest
