Problem with video calling

Dear Skype community,
Last few days I have a weird problem with my Skype. I want to use the option video calling but my video is all messed up. I have included a screenshot so you can see what my problem is. In the screenshot its my webcam that messes up, but when I call a friend its their video that looks like that. I have no idea how to solve this probem and hope you can help. I have reinstalled skype already and installed the latest version but the problem stays. I also have tested my webcam with different chatting programs like Facebook video chat but there is no problem there. 
I hope my problem will be fixed because I really love using Skype!
P.S. Excuse me for some grammar mistakes. English is not my native languege

Elaine,There is a heap of discussion about video problems - you appear to know a lot about this subject. I suspect a lot of these people may be like me, still using an older version of skype (Windows PC), like many of my contacts - and everything works flawlessly and has done so for years, including video. The reason we all still use this older version is that it is so much simpler and easier to use than recent versions which have become extremely cumbersome and screen hungry.It has always been as simple as pressing the 'Start my Video' bar which appears at the bottom of the app.  Recently when connecting to newer contacts, and some old contacts who have bought new devices etc  - the  'Start my Video' bar no longer appears, and video no longer works in either direction and I can't find anywhere to turn it on.  I am on a netbook and my webcam is working fine.  I suspect these contacts would be using later (and latest) versions of Skype, because Skype has probably upgraded without them realising, as tends to happen these days. I have done some testing between 2 PCs myself (one old Skype version (3. and one new version) and confirmed that all the chat, etc and everything works fine, BUT NOT VIDEO. My question is (do you know?) have the latest version(s) of Skype purposely stopped supporting video with the older versions? I have searched and searched all the online help but can't find any specific confirmation of this fact.  Would much appreciate your help.

  • I cannot drop any pictures in iMovie 9 (no problem with video)

    I cannot add any pictures in iMovie 9. I have no problem with videos, but when I want to drag and drop pictures, it does not work. (Pictures do not drop..) Does anyone know how to do?
    Thank you a lot

    You need to create a play list of songs that you would use for movies - mine is called Music for Movies.  Then when you click on the music icon (the first box in the line of 5 in the grey bar across the lower third of the screen) and a drop down menu will appear showing all your play lists.  Then simply drag and drop, but make sure that you hover over the video clip that you want to add the music to.  If you don't the music will be added to the start of your presentation.  You can always move the position afterwards. NOTE - if you want to add to your play list do it before you start your video editing as the list does not always update when I Movie.

  • Problem with video playback with iTunes

    Several problems :
    Problem with video playback with iTunes -
    Since about a week, When I launch a video, it takes a long time to get started, then only the sound starts with no pictures - If I press pause then play the video is played normally. Did anyone face or heard about same kind of issue .
    Problem with permission disk errors
    After re-installing White Tiger and After I installed the last OSX 10.6.5 update
    I found the following problem
    Group differs on "Applications / Utilities / AirPort Utility.app / Contents / Resources / wanArrow.png", should be 0 instead of 80.
    Last but not least :
    My computer seems slow - I have 60gig free on My hard drive and I test my hard drive and everything seems all good .

    What was the fix for this? Everything has sucked for my itunes video playback since the last major revision release.

  • I'm having problems with videos, they shake and the images break up back and forth into striped colors, how do I fix this?

    I'm having problems with videos, they shake and the images break up back and forth into striped colors, how do I fix this?

    1) This is because of software version 1.1. See this
    thread for some options as to how to go back to 1.0,
    which will correct the problem...
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=3754
    59&tstart=0
    2) This tends to happen after videos. Give the iPod a
    minute or two to readjust. It should now be more
    accurate.
    3) This?
    iPod shows a folder icon with exclamation
    point
    4) Restore the iPod
    5) Try these...
    iPod Only Shows An Apple Logo and Will Not Start
    Up
    iPod Only Shows An Apple Logo
    I think 3,4, and 5 are related. Try the options I
    posted for each one.
    btabz
    I just noticed that one of the restore methods you posted was to put it into Disk Mode First rather than just use the resstore straight off, I Have tried that and seems to have solved the problem, If it has thank you. previously I have only tried just restoring it skipping this extra step. Hope my iPod stays healthy, if it doesnt its a warrenty job me thinks any way thanks again

  • Problem with Video capture Device

    i have a problem with FME. i am using Avermedia TV capture
    device and Canon 3ccd Digital Video Camcorder ( PAL ) when i open
    the FME interface the warning given for " Problem with Video
    Capture Device".
    i read all the topics in Flash Media Encoder Category, if
    this problem occures my capture device ( i expect MPEG ) how to
    solve this problem?
    Thanks,

    The Device Matrix is something we'll be updating in the
    future as we continue to test more and more equipement. Ideally, I
    would like for users such as yourselves to be able to add to it and
    tell us what has worked for you as well. If anyone has any ideas
    about what technology we should use to do this (e.g., this forum? a
    wiki?) please let me know.
    Regarding the devices not working - the main problem we see
    is that the system requirements are not being met. Here is what to
    check for:
    - are you running on Windows XP (only supported OS right
    now)?
    - do you have DirectX client runtime version 9c or higher
    installed?
    - do you have hardware acceleration enabled?
    - do you have 32bit graphics enabled?
    - do you have the latest direct show drivers from the
    card/device manufacturer?
    Thanks,

    The second message that you are getting "The selected audio device "Beholder Aud Capture (SAA7135)" doesn't allow setting volume intensity. Disabling the volume slider control." is because your device does not let you change intensity of volume. This warning message is just to tell user that volume slider will remain disabled for the selecetd device. This is new addition in FMLE 3.0 and was not there in FMLE 2.5
    Also for first message, please make sure that no other instance of FMLE is already running using this device. You can verify this from task manager. If any other instance of FMLE is running then please close that instance so that device gets free for new instance.

  • I have problems with outgoing call no audio, only works with speaker. I bought my iphone on december 2011.

    I have problems with outgoing call no audio, only works with speaker. I bought my iphone on december 2011.

    Had the same problem, no audio on incoming or outgoing calls and only could hear the conversation of the call if I put on speaker. It seemed to start after I did a recent IOS update this past month. I tried restart, reset and restore of my iPhone but nothing changed. It appears not to be a software issue but a hardware problem. I got my phone this past summer so it was still under warranty and got it replaced.

  • Problem with video games

    Hi all,
    I have a problem with video games on Windows 8.1.
    On my Windows 7 I could play all games without any problems.
    Now I installed Windows 8.1 and I have problems with running video games: lower FPS, game breakdowns and sometimes even texture problems inside the game.
    I tried to reinstall both Windows and Graphic drivers. I tried several versions of drivers.
    I have Radeon HD 6870 and AMD Phenom II X4 955, SSD disk, 12 GB RAM.
    The point is: the same games works perfect on Windows 7 but doesn't work right on Windows 8.1.
    Can you, please, tell me if is there any other solution except going back to Windows 7 ?

    Hi,
    Please verify if these games are compatible with Windows 8.1.
    If yes, please download and install the proper version of game file and driver.

    Exactlly which model iMac do you have?
    see > How to identify iMac models
    Unfortunately that is not all that uncommon for the Early Intel iMac's given there age and the fact that the air intakes are probably choked with dust. Then add the extra heat caused by running a more intense OS X which is causing it to run a little warmer than normal and putting extra stress on the graphic and display components.
    My 6½ year old 17" Early 2006 Core Duo w/2GB of RAM is also running 10.6.8 and is also starting to get a single line that (knock on wood) goes away after a few minutes, while many others started getting permanent ones after 2 or 3 years. One thing that I think has helped, is that about every 3 or 4 months I shutdown and vigorously vacuum out the bottom grill work and small vent under the stand to keep it running cool.
    On that note: unfortunately I can only suggest that you clean your intake vents and hope that no permanent or irreversible damage has been done.

  • Problem with 5800, call processing is too slow.

    i have a problem with rejecting calls and recieving as well as dialling. it takes to much time to process. when a caller calls me they hear the dial tone for about 5 seconds then i get the call on my phone.. when i use third party software for automatic rejecting calls, the caller hears the dialtone for like 10 seconds or more then it gets rejected which is really annoying. please help me. is there a solution for this? this is not the network problem coz my sim n rejecting calls on other phones work fine. AND ALSO wen someone calls me i get the call alert like after 10 seconds, its very slow!!

    Make sure you have upgraded to 1.1.1 which fixes volume problems.
    Note that it will NEVER be as loud as standard cell phones but it should improve the volume so you have no problem hearing it in the car.
