I'm facing the problem that video stops working in Sk calls between
skype-2.1.0.81_1,1 (from the actual ports) and Windows Skype versions of
6.x; the call establishes fine, audio is fine but the video is
dropped/rejected; this is not a local problem because video works fine
between skype-2.1.0.81_1,1 and skype-2.1.0.81_1,1; it looks more that
there are changes in the protocol or codecs or whatever; for this a
working 4.x (congratulations!!!) could be a step to get it working
again;

net-im/skype4 would be really nice
