  Adding support for Gtalk/Video in Ubuntu
posted by Michael Grunditz on 7th January 2010

Here is what you need to do to add Gtalk/Video in Ubuntu:

If you run into problems , please contact me on : michael.grunditz@genesi-usa.com

Be aware that installing "alien" packages can harm your Ubuntu install , so be prepared to reinstall it if anything goes wrong.

Happy chatting !

Michael Grunditz



1. Install libx264 and the corresponding developer package.
2. Get the source for the gstremer bad plugins.
3. Configure it with libx264 enabled , this is VERY important and add /usr as the prefix.
4. If you have the good gstreamer plugins installed , should be default in ubuntu-desktop, you are ready now.
5. Run Pidgin.

What works:

You can start a video session and be able to see the other part and yourself. You can also here the other part.

Not working:

Audio input. If you try to choose alsa in pidgins options the client will crash.
