Did you go into the settings in skype and enable video calling? I am on 2.3.3 overcome kratos and that's all I had to do. Last time I used it only the back camera would work for video chat, there wasn't even an option to use the front camera. But the rear camera was working for me.

2.3.4 supports both cameras.

Well, in my defense, you were incredibly vague in your original question...
You're looking for alternative video recording apps?
Another video related question....
Regardless of what app I'm using, I always have like a 15sec limit on video...how can I change the recording limit? Also, where is the option to change the saving location?
I am using a 32gb sd card, so I should have plenty of space. I'm still kind of new to Android, so these two things could be an easy fix and I just don't know how to do it.. Thank for any help.
Maybe you are on MMS setting, tap on upper left icon and change resolution from MMS to WVGA. It records always on microSD card, you cannot change that.
You nailed it, it was set on mms.. I figured it was something simple. Thanks for you help!

VideoCall from Tab to PC

I've seen a few threads on this but no solid answers so far....
Yahoo IM has a video call plug-in but it only utilizes the back side camera and is pretty spotty @ best and Skype doesn't seem to work at all...
Does anyone have a suggestion for an app that will do this?
There isn't a good way to do this right now. Hopefully Skype will add video chat like they did with the iPhone. But I wouldn't hold my breath that it will come anytime soon.
oovoo works. last version I tested had the tab users view of himself sideways but it did work.
note it also required latest version of oovoo on the pc

Yes oovoo is by far the best one out there to date but like you said the front facing camera orientation is 90 deg. off and unusable....

I have used Yahoo IM and i was able to use the front facing camera. Here is the only problem i have found. It will not work between a PC and the tab. I was able to use it to talk from the tab to an iphone w/ no problems.
You can use yahoo to video chat between the tab and any mobile device and between the tab and a windows pc.

He's right...you can't. You can see the PC person on the Tab but they can't see you. The video never initializes and the PC app reports that there is no video. Both ends can hear each other, though.
cant belive no one has said Fring, i use it to video call my gf and she has a iphone, quality is great.

That would be because Fring does not have a PC client as per the OPs request!

No he isn't right as I have done this and was able to see myself in both screens. Not sure why you don't believe me if I have to make a video to prove it I will. YM w/ video will work w/ the tab.
Oovoo works great...
Sent from my SGH-T849 using XDA App
tried oovoo for the first time tonight, it worked great except for one glaring issue.
The app defaults to the landscape orientation, this causes the image captured from the camera to be sideways.
If i rotate the tab to portrait, the image I send is correct, but the image i'm receiving is sideways.
Is anyone else experiencing this?
Yep, oovoo works but is rotated 90 degrees off. I'm sure it's something on their list of things to fix.
Regarding Yahoo messenger, it's not true that it does video with the tab... until now it still does not work. I've tried with some experimental beta versions and could make it partially work but far from being usable.

I have no problem. Working in portrait mode and everything is fine. Oovoo still the onliest app doing video chat tab pc. A shame that other apps are not further developed to suport this.

Video chatting on galaxy tab

Before I buy galaxy tab, can you use Yahoo messenger or skype to do video chatting?
I am always spending my time talking to my family on weekend talking using video conference using yahoo messenger and skype on my laptop
I normally ignore this but for the sake of this forum, do u know how to search?
If u dunno, u should take at least 5 min to view few paged as this question was repeated few days ago
Sent from my GT-P1000 using XDA App
Here I will answer it. You can video chat w/ yahoo from the tab to any other mobile device and to a windows pc. It will not work w/ a Mac yet.
Thanks for the replied, now I'l buy this tab next weekend. BTW is the cam quality good on video chatting?
I am still looking for an app that will do a video chat between my Tab and a PC.
I've tried Yahoo, Skype, oovoo and 2 others that I can't remember off the top of my head... NONE of them work.
Sent from my GT-P1000 using XDA App
Not for sure why yahoo didn't work cause I used a Mac w/ a windows vm installed and the video chat worked just fine between the tab and the computer. Did you install the video plugin for yahoo.

To legally use skype you have to have verizon network (can someone fact-check that?) or the app won't install.
The front camera of the tab is 1.3 mega pixels. It is adequate for the task. There is some microphone button issue - you use it like a walkie talkie, or art last you have to remember to push it sometimes. Can you please post back here your results?
I wouldn't see why skype would just limit themselves to vzw network. I will try and install skype tomorrow on my sprint tab.

I was mistaken - I downloaded skype from the market, and installed, then set up an account. But it only calls over wifi, not 3g. And you have to pay. I want to learn about voip.
That is because skype has not released a version w/ video chat for android.

Those of us with non-stock roms don't have Qik.
Tango in the market works great. My friend installed it on his ipod touch and we were able to have a video conference without issue. I was on 3G he was on wifi.

FYI - Skype calls work fine over 3G on a Euro Tab on Euro networks. If it is not working over 3G for you it is probably being blocked by your carrier.
O/T though as Skype doesn't support video calling on Android as yet.

..going back to the title of the thread, where the heck is video chatting?I installed the latest YM and the imVideo plugins but the video chat option is nowhere to be found. Apparently you can make a Video call (i tried it, it used the rear facing camera, was able to "connect" (i got this call timer thing go up) but then neither of us could hear anything over the line. This was thru 3G by the way, calling a PC.
Where indeed is video chat?
Video calling between tab and pc is working via oovoo. Install the latest oovoo for your pc and the oovoo app from the market. The screen orientation has been fixed.

I use oovoo and it has worked the best. Ive tried as many apps I could find. Oovoo works from app to app, app to pc, android to iphone, all for free unless you want to do conference calls; then you need to pay. 1 to 1 is free.

Nope! Oovoo doesn't work correctly. The orientation of the forward facing cam is 90 degrees out and there's no config to reorient it.
Short answer is Yahoo Messenger works, like crap. Oovoo works as well, with issues.. All of the other video chat (handset->pc and handset->handset) programs I've used suck, wifi, 4g no matter. I've tried on my HTC EVO, MyTouch4g and Galaxy Tab with most of the free ones available. Qik's quality is not very good at all but it tends to work between tablet and phone.
The galaxy tab's front facing camera is nice and clear though for it's purposes. You will probably find yourself in better luck using your headset as well.
Also, i'm not really sure if it was installed with cm7 or not but the t-mobile version of Qik is installed on the mytouch4g, seems to work as well as it did with the stock rom.

No Flash on KG1,Edit: Solution found

I am unable to open youtube videos on my web browser despite installing Adobe flash 10.3. Am i the only one ???
I am on KG1 rooted with CF-4.0 KG1.
EDIT: Solution
Ok guys. Got the solution. Go to settings--> Enable Plugins-->Always On.
And this works. By default it is "Always On" but still you have to select "On Demand" or "Off" and then select "Always On". Try this back and forth until it works. Also try updating the flash player to 10.3 from Market.
I hope it works for you as well.
Thanks to "tfn" for the idea.

Very strange, I just took a photo with the flash, watched a Youtube video and a video clip from the BBC website and all worked perfectly.
That's weird, flash works fine here just using the leaked version, no mods.

If i go to bbc website to watch a flash video it just states to update your flash version, but i am on the latest version 10.3.
I have flashed a few times, done a factory reset etc etc , still no good,
Very strange

The better the plicacion stock as long as you have a cooked rom, usually all usually have that option, which is very valid and no cumbersome.
If having to install soware seconds.

Did you ever figure out a way to record it?
I had used this app on my evo 3d with no issues.
(https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.record.my.call&hl=en)
..now it doesnt work on the Galaxy s4...records my voice only..
just wondering if you figured it out?
Using "another call recorder" on 9505 stock not rooted. Works flawlessly just have to set outgoing delay above 0. Recording via bt headset also works perfectly.
Slig, searched for that in google Play without any luck. Do you have a link?
Thank you in advance.

What are your settings for:
Recording format:
and
Audio Source:
defaults: 3gp and voice_call
The only setting in recording i've changed is that delay. I've set it to value of 2. When it was zero outgoing recording was failing from time to time.
I'm using this app in auto recording mode with few numbers excluded. My save folder is located on sd card.

Followed your exact instructions...doesnt work.
I made a few calls and it said it was recording. Now each recording is exactly 641 bytes and cannot be opened (the built in player opens and shuts right down), tried other media players and accessed the recording in the ACR folder without any luck as well...;. I'm on T-mobile service but i dont think it matters.... weird...
I downloaded version version 4.3 from the market. not sure which one you are using.
I have version 4.3 from the market. Don't know why it behaves so weird in your case. My rom version is MEA. There is also program called Galaxy Call Recorder which worked on my phone. Maybe try this one.
My phone isnt rooted....
I'm using this app now thanks to Slig.. works reliably with my unrooted S4

Not sure what phone you are using it on but it does NOT work on the galaxy s4.in fact each output file is 641bytes (even though the recording times differ) and EStrong audio player cannot even open them
