[Q] Skype 2.0 with Video calling - Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

skype recently released a new version of skype for video calling on android phones (Nexus S, Desire S, Xperia Neo and Xperia Pro). is there any way we could make the video feature work on our xperia arc's back cam? i installed it but currently theres no option to do video.

no replies yet.
anyway : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1148708
download skype from here. install on xperia arc. and start with an audio call and then enable video. never start with a video call or the fone will be stuck in landscape.
p.s the video call quality is very goood

Arc does not have a secondary cam maybe Skype software might look for it. That's why it doesn't load the video.

it works. after the video call starts, click the camera button and select back cam.

[Q] xperia Arc camera zoom function

hy developers as we all know arc does not have the zoom function in 8MP picture capturing and in HD video recording
and its not pause the video while recording i mean there was no pause video option while recording
please can you modify the arc camera settings for these two things for 2.3.3
thanks for your time

i think zoom cant be added...........even if the digital zoom is added it will not make any sense.........digital zoom is crap

Agreed, much better too take a shot then zoom in afterwards, less chance of blur etc
you are not right nokia n8 has a perfect digital zoom at video recording !!!! no blur!! very clear image!!!!
@mikemilos
Nothing can compare to optical zoom. Another point to note is that the N8 has a larger sensor and better optics. That's still the top dog when it comes to phone cameras.

The new Update sony ericsson is releasing for Xperia arc introduces Camera Zoom/Photo Zoom up to 2.62x i think. Check http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1199597 for more information
Zoom funtion is working on new 4.0.A.2.368 but as stated above it is really blurred (and don't work in video mode).
Digital zoom is crap.
It's just taking the pixels in the middle (the zoomed area) and blowing them up.
You can't beat physics.

Only way I could think of is skype, also don't you think it would be quite hard to video chat someone? Unless you want to show them something in specific.

Dear friends
how i can enable Vedio calling in my Sony Ericsson Arc S / Lt18i

You have to use the back camera.

There are lots of recorder apps I know, but Sony screen recording doesn't show the start and end off clipe, mostly when you are going to stop the record you have to pull down notification bar,I don't want that part in my video and I don't want to crop the video
@mhyr
try Screen Recorder - Free No Ads
it has an option to shake the mobile to stop recording

Screen Recorder - Record the video clip that plays inside the app

I tried with both adb screenrecord and 3rd party screen recorder app. It can record screen but whenever video appears on the screen. It show that area as blank screen.
Is that possible to custom rom to record video too? or is there anyother solution to record video too?
I am having the same problem on the OnePlus 5.. I'm curious did you just upgrade to the new open beta? I am asking because I just upgraded and now I can't find a screen recorder that works where before the update I was able to screen record fine.

I have DU Recorder app and it works everywhere. Give that a try cuz I just tested it before replying to you and it works with videos. But the mic records the ambient noises too so be careful if you're trying to record something cuz it will record even your breathing hahaha
No its not working. Just now i tried.
Thanks for the info.
