Hi Gerrit, if your domain company.com already points with either it's A record to your GnuGk's public IP, calling video1@xxxxxxxxxxx might already work (the syntax varies between endpoints as you noted). To be on the safe side, you should also configure an SRV record for your domain to point to your GnuGk. That way your A record can still point to something else (eg. your web server). The calling syntax varies: The H.323 standard (Annex O) says it should be <alias>@<domain> and thats what Tandberg uses. On Polycom or LifeSize systems you can do the same by dialing <domain>##<alias>.
