How to improve the quality of Skype video calls

Skype is by far one of the most popular ways to communicate by voice over the Internet. Millions of people use it every day. Recently, video calls are beginning to gain popularity, when you not only hear, but also see your interlocutor.

However, the video quality is low, since most users do not have very powerful computers, and the connection should be good. If you are the owner of a modern computer and a high-speed Internet connection (512 kbit/s uplink), then why not enjoy all the possibilities?

For Windows

In the Skype settings folder, find the file config.xml and open it in a text editor. Find the <Video> section. Add additional parameters:
<Video>
<CaptureHeight>480</CaptureHeight>
<CaptureWidth>640</CaptureWidth>
<Device>ATI T200 AVStream Analog Capture</Device>
<Fps>25</Fps>
</Video>

It is clear that instead of <Device> you need to specify the name of your device.

For Mac

The procedure is almost the same. You need to go to «~/Library/Application Support/Skype/yourskypename/», open the file config.xml , find lines:
<Video>
<Device>Built-in iSight</Device>
</Video>

and replace them with:
<Video>
<CaptureWidth>640</CaptureWidth>
<CaptureHeight>480</CaptureHeight>
<Device>Built-in iSight</Device>
</Video>

After that, you will get a picture with a resolution of 640×480 instead of 320×240.
