Use skype to see each other; but for audio connect with telephone on speaker. So audio does not get broken.

Re: Classes on skype....
I do not see the relevance of this topic to the main subject of this forum i.e., Sahitya Identification. Moderators may do the needful.
The main problem for reception is connectivity and the hardware. I have personally experienced this and have worked out a solution for myself. Based on this , the same technology combo has been successfully implemented on too many systems in the friends circel. The following helps definitely :
1. Have a broadband connection : Do not use skype for lessons on WiFi connection. Both audio and video get disrupted and distorted. Choose the best connection / operator.
2. Headset : Pls use standard headset with unidirectional high gain mic - a multimedia headset is the best ; Sony, Philips have good sets . The Philips headset costing just around Rs. 400/- gives excellent audio.
3. RAM : 4GB RAM is the optimum and gives best results.
4. Video : Use standard webcams like Microsoft, Sony, Philips, etc. The most optimum model is Microsoft VX2000 ( USB ) ( costs ~ Rs. 1200/- ) which also has an excellent omni-directional mic quite sufficient for music classes but a dedicated headset is preferred. Cams with lighting LED's are detrimental to the eyes.
The above combo is excellent and enjoyable at optimum cost.
