ichat video

Was having the same problem but when trying to chat to someone on AIM.
Once they downloaded the latest version of AIM it worked.
It should work fine with both of you on iChat, I know there are issues when going across platforms.

anyone else having this problem/know how to fix it?

I just had a Snow Leopard video chat with my parents running Leopard and it worked fine.

Have you tried chatting with anyone else?

What happens if you try a connection to one or more of Apple's test accounts.

I have Snow on a Macbook Pro and can Video to Leopard users.

In System Preferences > Security an I have the Firewall ON and iChat in the List in the Advanced Button (Automatically allow Signed Software...)
Stealth is not set as iChat sends a Ping and stealth would block this.

I would also check your routing device.
If this is a fresh Install of Snow Leopard you may not have the same IP from the routing device and any Port Forwarding you were using may no longer be pointing at the computer.

In System Preferences > Network > Advanced Button > DNS tab make sure you make has DNS Servers listed.

Are you getting any sort of Pop up to send to Apple on the chat failure ?
(you don't always get it on the Declined message).

Katethesk8, what is the network setup between you and your friend? Do you use any router?

Also in the Connection Doctor (Video Menu) what does it report about your "router" in the Network Status item ?
