Version: (using KDE KDE 3.5.2) Installed from: Gentoo Packages OS: Linux With new MSN Live version if I enable in kopete Export emoticons theme option they can't see anymore any icon. Disabling exporting option they can of course see emoticons they own. (talking to older 7.5 versions, this kopete option works well of course).
I confirm the bug with Mandriva cooker kdenetwork-kopete-3.5.3-11mdv2007.0 Using this theme: http://www.kde-look.org/content/show.php?content=35561 Trying to connect to a Windows Live messenger V8.0.0792.00 I'm behind a nat router (WRT54GS with firmware dd-wrt latest release (v23sp1) with the following port range forwarding: - 6801 - 6801 Works fine with older MSN versions.
Hello, Can I confirm the bug also (as its still marked unconfirmed). Using kopete 0.12.2 Only Windows live messenger friends seem effected. Have sent animated emoticons to different friends, one (who uses live messenger) complains that the images are just 'blank'. Not quite sure what this description means, will see if I can get a SS or something, if it'll help. Let me know if I can help at all, Cheers, Liam. liam (at) eliam (dot) co (dot) uk
It seemed that my bug report 136274 is the same with this one. But I cannot mark it duplicated with this. Could somebody please help with it? And I have some tests for this problem (described in #136274) Maybe Messenger Live protocol has some changes?

I've the same problem. Users with Windows Live Messenger don't receive anything when I send an animated icon. Others with MSN Messenger 7.5 does receive them correctly. Runing Kopete 0.12.3 (using KDE 3.5.5 "release 50.1" openSUSE).
Confirming this bug. Live Messenger users see a white-filled blank box instead of the emoticon-filled box. On kopete 0.12.4 (KDE 3.5.6 from linuxpackages.net Slackware packages)
Same problem since Ubuntu 6.06. Now i'm using ubuntu 6.10, KDE 3.5.5 kopete 0.12.3 Can recieve emoticons but can't send
same on openSUSE 10.2
I have the same problem with Debian package 4:3.5.6-2 trying to send custom emoticons to a Live Messenger 8.1 client. They can send their own custom emoticons to me, however. I think (but don't really know) that the <msnobj ... Type="n" ...> code may have changed, since the new official client sends Type="2" instead of Type="3" for its own custom emoticons. When this change is made, the official client seems to start a P2P session and sends INVITE...MSNSLP/1.0 stuff, but Kopete doesn't seem to pick it up. I assume this means the protocol has changed. I do not know anything about MSN file transfers and I lack the expertise to make any changes to the source code myself, but I hope the above information is useful in some way.
You are right, Ben, the type for outgoing emoticons should be changed to 2 (according to http://msnpiki.msnfanatic.com/index.php/MSNC:MSNObject). I wonder why it is set to 3 at all, as this means "Display Picture". After making this change it worked for me and the network capture showed outgoing file transfers (I don't know the client versions of my peers though)
@Klunki: Do you have a patch for svn?
Created attachment 20981 [details] A fix for the type number in the msnobj. All i have done is change the type number for sending the emoticon. It appears to work and most people who couldnt recieve emoticons before can now. Please note that i normally edit my own stuff directly on the source so i rarely do patches and in addition this patch is against the fedora sources so please check it and modify to suit the svn version. The paths will almost certainly need changing but the patch does show the changes needed.
Well, this patch seemed not worked for me... Now people still can not receive my custom emoticons, including animatied and static ones. I applied this patch to the current svn version.
This patch works only if the receiver have the same emoticon. I think we have to reply to P2P invite as wrote in a previous comment
This problem still exist with Kopete 0.12.5/KDE 3.5.7, this bug should be marked as CONFIRMED because it happens to everybody.
It also exists at 0.12.6
Any news on this matter? The problem is still there. I know that most devs must be working on the 0.5 branch, but this will also affect that as well. Can you take care of this matter? And also I would like to see this patch: http://bugs.kde.org/attachment.cgi?id=16431&action=view implemented in kopete as a default.
This also affects me using: Kopete Version 0.50.80 Using KDE 4.1.00 (KDE 4.1.0) I cannot see custom emoticons using kde 4.1 and kopete. If i use the previous one that comes with kde 3.5.9 in kubuntu hardy. All is ok
Same problem here Kopete 0.50.1 KDE 4.0.4 on openSUSE 11.0
Is anything of this partially commited or something? #11 explains strange behaviour of kopete exporting display image instead of smileys!
We've completely replaced the current MSN implementation with a new MSN implementation which If you continue to experience this bug after testing the new implementation (which can be gotten from our subversion repository or with the KDE 4.2 Beta 1 release), PLEASE, open a new bug rather than reopening this bug. Thank you for your time and efforting in helping us find and fix problems in Kopete.
