Hello,
I'm using Skype v2.... with video on madriva 2008 on a HP pavilion Laptop with integrated webcam into the screen frame. It s works fine except:
- dark video in low light environment and no way to adjust it!?

- the video I receive: In nornal size I see only 25% on the screen size. The trick is to switch to fulll screen and to go back again to small screen to have a better view. However it does not show 100% on the video of the other party. Is there a way to resize the video window manually to fit it to the proper size?

re: dark issue. There are no great workarounds for this yet. Please read the other threads here for some ideas depending on driver.
re: scaling issue. This is a bug with Qt 4.3.1. You can downgrade, upgrade, or use the static build.

Andy.

As Andy said: down- or upgrade your qt library or use the static linux binary.
