Description Dennis Schridde 2013-01-01 23:40:16 UTC

When I try to video-call a Google buddy, Telepathy/KDE opens a window for that. After a while it displays "Disconnected: Unsupported media-type" in the status bar. This message can easily be overlooked, as the main area still shows the unknown-file-type icon. In addition I would like to get further information which media-type is unsupported, and possibly how to fix that — i.e. which package to install.

Reproducible: Always

Thank you for the bug report.

As this report hasn't seen any changes in 5 years or more, we ask if you can please confirm that the issue still persists.

If this bug is no longer persisting or relevant please change the status to resolved.

Dear user, unfortunately Telepathy is no longer maintained.

Please migrate to another solution, e.g. for Jabber a possibility is Kaidan, for Matrix a candidate is NeoChat.
