i think pidgin doesnt yet have a support for audio/video chatting . you should hop to something better ; ekiga or skype.

Nope. Pidgin can't handle audio/video. You've got to use Ekige for SIP-based internet telephony, Skype - i thing you know what it is - or amsn if you look for audio/video inside MSN based chats.

Can you help with this problem?
