MacBook Pro 15-inch, Mid 2010
Osx 10.8.5
Displaylink 2.1 or 2.2beta
Sd3500v

Skype 6.15 (330)

Video chat not displaying on displaylink devices

Has anybody gotten their Skype to actually display video chat sessions on the displaylink monitors?

If the Skype window is on the main laptop monitor video chat works fine.

Move the Skype window to the one of the extended displaylink displays and the video freezes. Turn off video on the host and client will display standard Skype connection pictures. Turn on video again and back to black screens.

Move the Skype window back to the laptop monitor and video is still black. Turn off video on the host and client will display standard Skype connection pictures. Turn on Video again and the video chat works fine.

Thanks,

Same issue with Skype. The video chat only works on the main display and not the external displays.

Based on the Replies i am guessing nobody is using Skype for Video chatting :mad:
