How to optimize Skype

I have an internet connection with 1 MB bandwidth, but Skype only uses about 64 KB. I want to know how Skype can be optimized to use the whole bandwidth.
Thanks.

This will record the video calls, I use it for family Skype calls.

  • I would like to know how to use Skype on my TV to ...

    What I'm finding out in the millions of Skype users is that there isn't anyone (so far) that knows how to use the Skype (which is installed on my SMART TV) to make a phone call or video phone call.  So, if there is anyone out there who knows how to use SKYPE on SMART TVs to make phone calls or video phone call - that would be great if you can help me.  I have awebcam which is compatible with my TV and can be use with Skype.  If anyone knows of classes where you can get training or online courses to help me learn how to use Skype that would be great.  I thank you for any response to this by sending an e-mail to [removed for privacy] .

    Use of Skype on a smart TV may vary from manufacturer to manufacturer.  However the interface should be rather basic and easy to use.  I don't see how a class would be really necessary.   The process may even be covered in a startup guide provided with your TV.
    Here's a link to a 2.5 minute video on it.  This one is specifically Samsung, but others should be similar.

    while i got 5000 documents in dicom container, the xquery execution time is close to 10 secs. i've tried to create indices using commands:

                        is.addIndex("", "docid", "unique-node-attribute-equality-string");
    and
                        XmlIndexSpecification iss = xcIns.getIndexSpecification();
                        iss.addIndex("imuba.med", "instanceid", "unique-node-element-equality-string");
    And then the execution time is nearly about 7-8 sec, but it's still big (the database contains only 5000 documents).
    Have you any idea how to optimize it ? I suppose the index on element i'm using in the WHERE clause would be helpful (dicom_item/dicom_body/dicom_tag[@group='0008' and @element='0060']). Well, i haven't found concept how to add index on element which can be shown using xpath expression.
    thanks for any help
    Darek

    Hi Darek,
    First off, why not try adding these indexes to see what happens:
    is.addIndex("", "dicom_tag", "node-element-equality-string");
    is.addIndex("", "group", "node-attribute-equality-string");
    is.addIndex("", "element", "node-attribute-equality-string");
    Secondly, what storage model are you using? I would expect you to get better query times using a NodeContainer, with the DBXML_INDEX_NODES flag enabled.
    Thirdly, your "instance" document is not very "XML" like, so you will struggle to get very good query times using that format. If you have control over the format of the document, I would suggest incorporating one or more of the "group", "element", and "vr" attributes into the name of the element - so that you will get multiple elements with different names, instead of one element name with multiple permutations of attributes. Selecting an element by name will always be faster than selecting it by some kind of value.
    Let me know how you get on with these suggestions,
    John

  • IPod w/Cassette Adapter-How to Optimize Sound Quality?

    I have I believe a G2 iPod (15 GB), and I play it in my car using a cassette adapter. I've found that to keep the sound from degrading at above average volumes, I have to make some adjustments. One, I have to set the EQ to 'Bass Reducer'. Two, I have to make sure the volume on the iPod is at about 80%. If I go above that, the sound distorts. The lower you go below that, the more hissing you get w/ the playback. I also turn the 'Sound Check' setting on.
    Any other recommendations on how to optimize the sound quality when playing it through your vehicle sound system? Also, I'm thinking about getting a G5 unit (most likely the 4 GB Nano). Anyone have any feedback on whether I can expect better sound quality, in particular in my vehicle with the setup outlined above, by upgrading to the newer unit?

    Various Methods to Connect to a Car Stereo System, or Listen to Your iPod in the Vehicle
    Best:
    Direct connection via the dock connector or headphone jack of your iPod, to the mini-jack input (or AUX RCA input jacks) of your car stereo. Not many low/moderate-end cars have this feature yet, but it is becoming more popular. Some aftermarket auto stereo units may have this feature.
    There are also some after-market, moderate to fairly expensive direct interfaces, that hook into your existing car stereo to provide a high-quality, direct connection. Most will also power/charge the iPod. Pretty slick, but can be pricey ($80-$300). If money is no object, a clean way to go. Not very portable from car to car – if at all.
    http://logjamelectronics.com/ipodproducts.html
    http://www.myradiostore.us/auxadapters/blitzsafe/blitzsafe-m-link-ipod-interface .html
    http://www.theistore.com/ipod2car.html
    http://www.mp3yourcar.com/
    Better:
    Connect your iPod to a cassette adaptor and play your tunes through your car's cassette player. Some new cars no longer come with a cassette player, so it may not be an option. It will provide even better audio quality if you can run the audio feed out of the dock connector (see the SendStation link below). Can be portable between cars that have a cassette player and also be used in your home cassette system. $5 to $20 for the adaptors, with large variations in quality (even with the same model).
    Good:
    Attach an FM transmitter to your iPod and play the tunes through an unused FM station. Convenient, but wireless FM transmitter signals are susceptible to static and outside interference, and can vary in strength and quality depending on your location. Some noticeable degradation and distortion, depending on the quality of the transmitter, the sensitivity of your ears and the airwave congestion in your area. Highly portable between cars, and may be used in a home system. FM transmitters that need to be plugged into a DC auto jack may not work in a home environment (without some sort of adaptor). You can pay from $15 to more than $80 for some of these.....but for FM quality audio, how much is too much?
    Marginal:
    Attach an external speaker system to the iPod and play it in the car. Workable, but not too good - unless you spring for a $300+ Bose (or similar) system. But why? Only if your vehicle has no Stereo system, perhaps.
    Brave Techno-Geek:
    This site gives some directions on adapting a car stereo by yourself. Risky, but it has been successfully accomplished by a forum member. Fairly inexpensive....unless you screw it up.
    Whichever you choose, power the iPod through your car’s DC power -- either from a power adapter, or as part of the combined audio adaptor. Have a method to secure the iPod to the dash/console/etc. See the reviews for all the various accessories at the iLounge
    You will also get better audio output if the dock connection plug is used, rather than the headphone jack. See Sendstation for a novel adaptor called a PocketDock. Others types are also available via this site.
    I have read positive and negative reviews of each method, and within methods there are great variations in performance of different manufacture's systems – and peoples’ opinions of their performance. Some cassette adaptors/FM transmitters work poorly, some better.
    FWIW: I have the iTrip Mini & the Newer Technology RoadTrip!+ FM transmitters, a Belkin cassette adaptor (used both with & w/out the PocketDock) and two vehicles with the BlitzSafe direct interface. Using the same song in the same car, I found that the FM transmitters worked, but not as good as the cassette adapter via the headphone jack. Using the PocketDock on the cassette adapter resulted in a significant audio quality improvement. As expected, the Blitzsafe direct connect was exceptionally better than everything else: less tinny, a more warmer/richer sound, and close to true CD quality.

  • Share how you keep Skype running

    I thought that it would be helpful for a lot of people if there was a thread written with the sole purpose of depicting ways to address Skype run-time issues, like how to keep Skype running despite its tendency to crash without having to manually restart it. 
    So, for the most part, try to only post comments--by comments I mean posts, I just didn't want to be redundant and say 'post posts'--that address some specific thing that you were trying to get Skype to do like
    Webcam support
    Sound Server support
    or V4Linux support (if that's not exactly the same thing as webcam support)
    and how you were able to get Skype to do it.  Please, do not post answers to unresolved, or otherwise partially fixed support, problems.  This is a place to share helpful, useful, and (at least mostly) automatic scripted workarounds.  The scripts can be in any programming language, not just scripting ones, although scripting ones are best suited for this kind of thing. 
    As to what I mean by 'partially fixed problems': I'm talking about problems that still require user intervention in order to keep the problem-fixing-script going.  Like, every time the script finishes running, you have to manually restart it.  This is different from a mostly automatic script that has to be started by the user (as opposed to being started by the system at start-up or when X is initiated), but that once started continues to run until the user forcibly terminates it.  Like 'killall -s KILL myscript.sh', for example. 
    I'll start off by posting a script that I use to handle a webcam support problem that I have with Skype.
    (Note, this is my first attempt at a really big thread/post, so I'm just keeping my fingers crossed because doing something like this is rather intimidating for me, a forum-newbie.  )

    I'm still using the beta version of Skype, that is version 2.2.0.35; it crashes every now and again because I have to run it with a v4l preload--its crashes seem to have a domino effect on itself, in that if it crashes once then it's twice as likely to immediately crash again.  So here's my little workaround that keeps Skype going; I hope that somebody will find it useful or will have some suggestions for how I can make it run better. 
    ## ensur.sh -- ENsure Skype continUes Running ##
    ## an answer to the continual crashes brought on by loading skype as 'LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib32/libv4l/v4l1compat.so skype &' ##
    ## Coded by DeFfunc't95 ##
    #clear
    echo
    echo
    echo "IS SKYPE RUNNING"
    if top -n2 | grep "skype" ; then
    echo "";
    echo " [T]";
    echo "EXITING NOW...";
    echo ;
    echo ;
    exit ;
    else echo ;
    echo " [F]";
    echo ;
    echo "STARTING UP SKYPE WITH PRELOAD" ; # the preload is necessary in order
    ## for webcam support to be enabled, or so it seems.
    echo ;
    echo ;
    LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib34/libv4l/v4l1compat.so skype ;
    # This mapping will need to be changed according to where ensur.sh
    #>> actually is.
    sh ~/:B/ensur.sh ; # the mapping
    fi
    My script works extremely well, most of the time.  Whenever Skype crashes because of a preload error, it just starts Skype right back up again.    However, it isn't so great at being able to tell the difference between when Skype is actually running and when it isn't.  In fact, 9 times out of 10, if Skype is already running and I start up my little 'ensur-skype' script: my script will start Skype up anyhow regardless of whether Skype is already running or not.  And I think it's because of my usage of
    if top -n2 | grep "Skype" ; then ...
      When I actually just run 'top -n2 | grep "skype"' in the terminal, it rarely actually manages to grep Skype from top, but I really don't know of any other way to determine whether Skype is already running.  Any suggestions as to how to check for a Skype run-time without risking the possibility of starting two instances of Skype in the process?

  • How to optimize this sql by writing MINUS function.

    Hi all,
    how to optimize the sql by writing MINUS function.
    these are my tables
    1. CREATE TABLE POSTPAID
    RECORD VARCHAR2(2000 BYTE),
    FLAG NUMBER
    Record format:

    select record record from POSTPAID where substr(record,9,10) NOT in (select PHONE_NO from SUBSCRIBER)
    Thanks

    Why are you very particular about using "MINUS". You can optimize the sql by using "NOT EXISTS" instead of "NOT IN" as below:
    SELECT RECORD FROM POSTPAID A WHERE NOT EXISTS (SELECT 1 FROM SUBSCRIBER B WHERE SUBSTR(A.RECORD,9,10) = B.PHONE_NO)

    Hi Arora,
    Using Package size is very simple and you can avoid the time out and as well as the problem because of memory.  Some time if you have too many records in the internal table, then you will get a short dump called TSV_TNEW_PAGE_ALLOC_FAILED.
    Below is the sample code.
    DATA p_size = 50000
    SELECT field1 field2 field3
       INTO TABLE itab1 PACKAGE SIZE p_size
       FROM dtab
       WHERE <condition>
    Other logic or process on the internal table itab1
    FREE itab1.
    ENDSELECT.
    Here the only problem is you have to put the ENDSELECT.
    How it works
    In the first select it will select 50000 records ( or the p_size you gave).  That will be in the internal table itab1.
    In the second select it will clear the 50000 records already there and append next 50000 records from the database table.
    So care should be taken to do all the logic or process with in select and endselect.
    Some ABAP standards may not allow you to use select-endselect.  But this is the best way to handle huge data without short dumps and memory related problems. 
    I am using this approach.  My data is much more huge than yours.  At an average of atleast 5 millions records per select.
    Good luck and hope this help you.
