videoService canStart/canStop always returning false since 1.3.0.0 about skype-android-app-sdk-samples HOT 4 CLOSED

So the first time I glanced at the logs I could not really see anything useful. I stepped away and came back and did notice that canStart was throwing error codes. Initially it throws E_BootstrapInProgress which makes sense. Once the conversation data starts to flow though, it continues to throw E_ActionNotAvailable. I don't know if that's equivalent to saying "well, it has already started so it can't start again" but if that were the case, then canStop() would eventually return true. What are the other reasons canStart could throw E_ActionNotAvailable and why would that have changed from 1.1 to 1.3? Just thinking out loud, here.

Well, this is not an issue with 1.4.0.0 so ... case closed?

Follow-up note ... this "issue" is partially still present in 1.4.0.0 (I don't know why I got lucky on the first try but it hasn't worked since). The root cause however is that I was expecting a VideoService.CAN_START_PROPERTY_ID => true to trigger the unpausing of the video so that the connection can be considered "established". I have updated the code to also accept a VideoService.CAN_STOP_PROPERTY_ID => true as a trigger. The conclusion is, you may never be notified that the video service "can" be started but it may have already started. So, good news ... at least canStop will now return true.
