Hi guys,
Is it just me or you also noticed, that video calls coming from the rear/front camera area really blurry? Those are ridiculously blurry on 3g and still very blurry on Wifi.
It seems, like the image is completely out of focus and focusing does not work at all on the camera in skype?
Has anyone have sharp video coming on skype video calls from their rear/front camera?

+1 same issue no solution
Sent from my HTC One using xda app-developers app
I was gonna post about this as well. For a 2mp front camera (which is what lots and lots of standard laptops come with), the video call quality is atrocious!

It must be 4.2.2 firmware or something because after searching the HTC One forum I see others are having the same problem on other roms, I can't receive a call on Skype without it force closing on me it's very frustrating because I use Skype a lot.

Ok, months have passed and we have a new version of Skype, which is 4.4 and... Rear camera is still blurry, in video chats...
Front camera is sharp and beautiful, though.
Anyone else having the same problem?
I had a test video call from HTC One to my friends PC, and then from Lumia 920 to the same PC.
Voice on HTC One was great and video blurry, while on Lumia 920 the video was sharp and beautiful, while sound came out "tinny" and silent.
If only this issue was resolved...

Yeah mate I have exactly the same issue & it's driving me crazy. I have to switch to the front facing camera to get a clear picture, which is balls since I spend a lot to time showing stuff to people on Skype and flipping the phone over means I can't see what the hell they see. I was hoping the stock 4.3 update would fix the issue...nope still super blurry.
I seriously can't believe so few have noticed the issue...unless it's just us...
I have both n5 and htc one. Skype is always blurry here. Use it at home, on wifi. Wifi is good speed. Hangouts video calls blurry as well. Such a bummer.
Same issue here I was hoping for an update but nothing solves this problem. On top of that when you try to leave a video message the picture from both cameras comes out distorted.
Hi, I recently baught a tablet Xiaomi Mi Pad 4 plus. And there is a strange issue with it. After installing some communication and chat software no matter what, everything is working perfecly with microphone, Camera can record video etc. But at some point (sorry can't spot the exact problem), when I plug headphones into the tablet or something else. When try to record video from normal camera or Open camera software the sound is gone. It seems like no microphone is present or something else suppress it. Every other app is working perfectly fine (skype, viber, messenger...), every of installed applications has full capabilities for talking with and without video. Camera and microphone are working fine there. Since I reset the tablet with factory settings all goes normal and camera can again record audio without issues. But at some point camera no longer can record audio. I also tried to change some app permisssions from settings but it doesn't help. So do you have any idea what can cause the problem?
Best regards
Hi,
I seem to be having trouble with background hardware services (specifically the cameras and bluetooth mics):
1. Bluetooth headset calls through messenger apps like viber or whatsapp loses use of the microphone around 1 minute into a call (like being muted). I have to unlock the screen and switch back to the app to get microphone use back.
2. The background video recording app (SCOS) loses control of the cameras (both front and back) and cannot use it (maybe cannot instantiate?) around a minute after the screen is turned off. Switching cameras or restarting the app is the only fix.
I have already disabled the Battery Optimization for the concerned apps, plus as many services as I can find, but still the problem persists. The only solution is to keep the screen on, which nullifies the point of using a headset and a background video recorder.
This seems to be connected with Android P's new privacy settings
Anyone have an idea how to solve this?
So I've been running an S21U (Exynos) for just over a week now, and I can't get past an odd issue which I'm assuming is related to the phone somehow.
Whenever I make or receive a WhatsApp video call, after about 1 minute the video and audio go out of sync (on the main screen - the picture in picture small display is ok). It doesn't matter who I call, I've reinstalled WhatsApp, and I even got my S10+ out of the cupboard and made a video call on that (same network) and that was fine.
Anyone else experiencing similar or have any ideas? I'm more than willing to be told I'm an idiot and for it to be something obvious!
**Thinking about it, my phone gets pretty hot when video calling. Could it be thermal throttling that causes this?

What's RAM+CPU usage like during this?
When I try to switch into back camera while in the video call in WhatsApp the app freezes and it crashes after some time. And on the other side it says "Poor connection. Paused video". This only happens in whatsapp. In other apps the back camera works fine. I've tried everything but nothing worked. I'm on pixel experience 11 (plus edition). Can anybody help?
