I cannot get video in either direction when communicating with NetMeeting through a Cisco 871. I need to use NetMeeting between remotes and XP Pro; sadly, I don't know much about NetMeeting or H.323.
From our LAN, behind the Cisco 871, we can initiate and receive calls with audio, use all the NetMeeting related features, but no video in either direction. If I use a Mac with XMeeting on my LAN, I also have video both directions with the NetMeeting clients on the remotes. Without the router, NetMeeting works fine, but of course I need the router.
Debugs show that the router is recognizing and fixing the H323 & H225 traffic; if the inside client is XMeeting, an H245 tunnel is found, if NetMeeting, there is no H245.
A typical log with XMeeting on my side looks like:

With NetMeeting inside the log looks the same, except for the line with "found h245Tunneling". With XMeeting, there is subsequent H245 traffic throughout the call.
What's special about NetMeeting? Any suggestions? I have followed the suggestions from other posts as to which ports to open - but without success.
