xmpp programs supporting audio and video calls?
siskin.im provides audio and video calls. Are there programs
which enables xmpp audio and video calls for
android and x86 gnulinux systems? No xmpp programs support
zero knowledge encrypted audio and video calls?
Thanks.
There's voip extensions for XMPP, but I don't know which free clients and servers support it.

If you mean Jingle, then plenty of them do. It’s not apparent which protocol siskin.im use, though.

There is not an established standard about xmpp
audio and video calls?

Well, XMPP is such a beast where _anything_ is a standard. There are four ‘standards’ for cryptography, for instance. :-)
I know some audio/video plugins for XMPP on Android (F-Droid) and tried them, yet I use XMPP primarily for texting.
If you need audio/video communication, then Jami may be more appropriate.

Is it already usable?
Anyway, if anybody need a audio-video talks over IP, there is an industrial standard for that, it’s called *SIP*. It does support ‘zero knowledge encryption’, and there are plenty of free clients and quite a few gratis service providers, but the only one, I am aware, that does not impose you to run nonfree software in your browser to register is https://www.linphone.org.

It is difficult to get people to install several different programs. What I
am investigating is if xmpp can become an universal solution for zero
knowledge encrypted xmpp messaging, xmpp audio calls and xmpp
video calls? It might be easier to get people to install a xmpp client and
register a xmpp account, if there was a xmpp client program that enables
omemo messaging while looking like an email client, maybe able to relay
emails, and enables zero knowledge xmpp audio and video calls.

Exactly! Thatʼs why Iʼm talking about industrial standards.

No, because it is difficult to get people to install several different programs. The industrial standards for messaging and calls over IP have been there for a long time and they are _not_ XMPP.

Do you get a message if you were off line when the message
was sent to you?
> install several different programs
What I suggest is one program. An xmpp program which
supports omemo encrypted messaging. And rss and
zero knowledge encrypted video and audio
calls.

SIP is not the industrial standard for _messaging_ (which is, obviously, email), but for _live calls_.

Sure, and someone else suggests the other one program. :-)
