[Asterisk-video] Enabling Video

I am attempting to get a video call to work.. I am running asterisk 1.6.2.5, installed on an Ubuntu machine using apt-get install.


1)      In sip.conf I have videosupport=yes

2)      I have two extensions that look like:
[200]
deny=0.0.0.0/0.0.0.0
secret=xxx
dtmfmode=rfc2833
canreinvite=no
context=users
host=dynamic
type=friend
nat=yes
port=5060
qualify=yes
callgroup=
pickupgroup=
dial=SIP/200
permit=0.0.0.0/0.0.0.0
callerid=device <200>
call-limit=50
disallow=all ; better for custom-tunning codec selection
allow=ulaw
allow=h264 ;

But when I dial extension to extension, using Bria (h264 is enabled in the codec list of Bria) I have no video. In the CLI I see:

== Using SIP RTP CoS mark 5
  == Using SIP VRTP CoS mark 6
   -- Executing [200 at users:1] Dial("SIP/100-00000024", "SIP/200") in new stack
  == Using SIP RTP CoS mark 5
  == Using SIP VRTP CoS mark 6
    -- Called 200
    -- SIP/200-00000025 is ringing
    -- SIP/200-00000025 answered SIP/100-00000024

And if I look at the channels I see:

test*CLI> sip show channels
Peer             User/ANR         Call ID          Format           Hold     Last Message    Expiry
173.246.203.191  100              Y2U5ZDg1OTQ3ZTg  0x4 (ulaw)       No       Rx: ACK
173.246.203.191  200              4aa104971c4f930  0x4 (ulaw)       No       Rx: ACK
2 active SIP dialogs

But I do see that h264 is enabled.

Can someone point me in the right direction?

Thanks
David
