Skype 3.6 beta includes high quality video support
Skype has released a public beta of Skype 3.6. As usual you can expect a bunch of bug fixes and general tweaks. But there's also one major new feature: support for high quality video chats.What do we mean by high quality? 640 x 480 resolution and 30 frames per second. You'll need a broadband connection and a webcam capable of 640 x 480 resolutions in order to make high quality video calls. Otherwise, you can always resort to and old fashioned 320 x 240 window displaying video at 15 frames per second.
While this is the first version of Skype to officially support VGA video chats, there's been a hack for enabling high quality video since February.
