I'm using Pidgin to communicate with my colleagues through Skype (yeah, I know, Skype... right)
Thing is, I seem to be unable to make video calls
debug log:
(15:58:16) mediamanager: gst pipeline error: Internal data stream error.

(15:58:16) media: Error with your webcam
(15:58:16) media: Conference error
or even audio calls as I get an "Unable to establish a call 488 Not acceptable here" error
Running Ubuntu 18.04.1 (64bit)
Pidgin from repo > 2.12
Webcam and sound work perfectly well on Wire or Cheese...
Any suggestions ?
UPDATE 2018-09-04
So came across this PPA:
https://launchpad.net/~sipe-collab/+archive/ubuntu/ppa
Updated pidgin-sipe and some gstream packages
Now the audio calls are working... nice
But no luck with video conferences yet...
Still getting:
(15:36:08) mediamanager: gst pipeline error: Internal data stream error.
