Hi,

have you enabled video support in minisip and libminisip in 
build.d/build.local? It can be done with the following lines:

   ## override shared libminisip/minisip configure parameters
   set_configure_param(['minisip', 'libminisip'],
                       video => 1,
                      );

You also need to enter the name of you video4linux device in the device 
tab in the settings dialog. In my case "/dev/v4l/video0".

Minisip currently only support H.263+ video codec, check that the device 
  you are trying to call supports it, for example Grandstream 3000 only 
supports H.264.

Minisip should open a video window if you call a video capable sip 
phone, but if you still can't setup a video call, it will help if you 
post a SIP call trace.
