For the problems listed below

Check the following areas

If Skype doesn’t start

Check the connection status between the Video Call Camera, USB Cable

and TV USB port.
Check the network connection status.

If the Notification Window is not
displayed when a call is received

Check ‘My status’ is “Do Not Disturb”.

When using certain TV functions, an incoming call cannot be received

(e.g. during a software update, etc.).
Check ‘Privacy Settings’ is “Allow calls from people in my contact list

only”.

If there is a problem with echo.
(When you can hear your own
voice back through the speakers)

Position the Video Call Camera at the top-center of your TV.

Change the home theater audio setting to stereo rather than surround.

Reduce the speaker volume.

When the other party is calling using a device other than an LG TV, we

recommend using a headset.
The quality of audio sound could be decreased in echoic space.

Test microphone using the ‘Echo / Sound Test Service’.

If the video is disconnected or
low quality

Internet or network congestion can degrade video quality.

Using wireless can also degrade video quality. We recommend using a

wired internet connection.
Screen quality can decrease when using Zoom-In. We recommend you

use minimum zoom during video calls.
Check ‘Call quality information’ is “critical” (see page 10). In this case,

video quality would be degraded.

If the call disconnects suddenly

When certain TV functions are activated, the call may be disconnected.

(e.g. Sleep timer, etc.)
Do not unplug the Video Call Camera during a call.

If the Skype menu does not
appear on the

menu

Check whether your TV supports the Video Call Camera (see page 2).

Connect the camera to your TV, then update the software. For details

about how to update the software, refer to your TV manual.

etc.

Abnormal operation may be due to network congestion or problems with

the Skype server.
