A/V support was just recently added to the ToxCore, but it's not very usable yet. It's not integrated into ToxCore library, it's more like a consumer of it. It also lacks encryption and packet splitting.

A/V requires some time to become more usable, and Qt GUI has to implement some basic functionality before starting working on a/v. Such functionality includes reimplementation of message display widget https://github.com/nurupo/ProjectTox-Qt-GUI/issues/62, support of user accounts https://github.com/nurupo/ProjectTox-Qt-GUI/issues/67 and implement file tranfser widget https://github.com/nurupo/ProjectTox-Qt-GUI/issues/68 and other. So for now we can just discuss how a/v should work. Some implementation details, UI sketches, suggestions, etc.

Any updates so far?

Not much, besides that we have this listed as a GSoC project here, so depending on how many slots Google allocates us this project might get a student working on it over the Summer.
