I read your earlier posts about lack of negotiation capabilities in 
asterisk..  I guess I'm a little confused about the current state of 
affairs..  Maybe you can enlighten me:  is any type of video call using 
iax2 possible in any publicly available version of asterisk?  If it's 
only possible using your 1.4 patches/hacks, are those available anywhere?

I've googled and found lots of vague comments that asterisk passes 
through video with no option for transcoding, which is fine by me... I 
assumed that this meant there is a way to do video, but maybe only when 
using sip?  Also references to patches backported to the 1.2 series that 
I have yet to find... very confusing.

Thanks for all the quick replies, it's a great help!
