Does anyone know how to do video chat in pidgin? I can't figure
it out
for the life of me. I click on a contact name and the chat window
opens. Then, under Conversation -> Media I have 3 options: Audio
call / Video call / Audio and video call. But all are inactive (grayed
out) and so they can't be selected.
I have wondered the same. I've come to the conclusion that only certain
IM protocols can support it, but not knowing which ones.
I have wondered if it were something that Pidgin could do, by itself,
using some particular protocol, and only use one of the instant
messenger messages to send the invite through.

All mail to my mailbox is automatically deleted, there is no point trying
to privately email me, I will only read messages posted to the public lists.
George Orwell's '1984' was supposed to be a warning against tyranny, not
a set of instructions for supposedly democratic governments.
