I tried to add the following to endpoints configuration in my `pjsip.conf`:

```auto
allow=h263p
allow=h263
allow=h264
allow=vp8

```

and tried to make a video call, but the video was not displayed, but there was only the sound, see [here](https://developernote.com/2025/02/my-first-attempt-to-make-a-video-call-with-pjsip/) for more details and [logs](https://developernote.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/02/logCA-video1.txt). See the full configuration on [GitHub](https://github.com/dmitriano/DockerLemp/tree/master/asterisk/etc/asterisk).

The command

`core show channeltype PJSIP`

does not display video codecs:

```auto
-- Info about channel driver: PJSIP --
  Device State: yes
Presence State: no
    Indication: yes
     Transfer : yes
  Capabilities: (codec2|g723|ulaw|alaw|gsm|g726|g726aal2|adpcm|slin|slin12|slin16|slin24|slin32|slin44|slin48|slin96|slin192|lpc10|g729|speex|speex16|speex32|ilbc|g722|siren7|siren14|g719|opus|silk8|silk12|silk16|silk24)
   Digit Begin: yes
     Digit End: yes
    Send HTML : no
 Image Support: no
  Text Support: yes

```

What does it mean?

Should I add the codecs to `chan_pjsip` as mentioned [here](https://community.asterisk.org/t/pjsip-video-configuration/82415/3)?

Should I create `chan_pjsip.conf` or do something else?
