[asterisk-users] Video through IAX2 trunks

I never got video to work over IAX2 trunks, specifically with the GXV- 32xx
grandstreams. I've tested without success with asterisk 1.8 & 11.

I only managed video over SIP trunks and only at VGA resolution max over
DSL links (~80-100ms latency), with barly acceptable frame rate.
