Yes. Possibly needing to use a relay, it depends on the exact behavior
of each NAT device and their combination.  But in the presence of a
relay, we expect very high success rate, much over 99%.

libnice includes GStreamer elements. You may also be interested in
Farstream, which is a set of GStreamer elements that can be used to
implement video-calling type scenarios. Farstream includes a libnice
based "transmitter" plugin.
