Palavatv works in local lan, but not in internet

[VosaXalo]

I have tried palava.tv with two PC that are identical:

• OS: Ubuntu 12.04 64bit
• Browser: Chromium version 31

The first time the two PC were connected on the same network. I mean that the two PC were connected to the same router, in other words on the same local network. In this case the audio and video conference has worked perfectly.

The second time the two PC were connected to the internet with two distant routers (as is the common situation between users on the net). In this case I can't see the other person, but only a black rectangle, or a rectangle with a black dot in the middle. The video doesn't work, nor the audio. It seems that something is wrong with the routers?, the firewalls?, router ports? It's strange as palavatv it'a a web page.

If this can help I have copied and pasted here some console messages from the browser during the second test (the two PC connected to different routers): DEBUG Arguments[1] all-767cd71c.js:27 DEBUG Arguments[2] all-767cd71c.js:27 DEBUG Arguments[2] all-767cd71c.js:27 event.returnValue is deprecated.

i experience the same. video/audio is only possible when a direct ip communictaion can be established. which is not possible behind two nat routers.

I have tried to start a conference between my Android smartphone with Google Chrome, and my PC with Ubuntu 12.04 and Chromium installed, but the issue is the same. I can't view, nor near, the other person. The problem is identical as the one with the two PC connected to the net as I explained above.
