Part 1: What is Skype?

Skype is the software for instant communication. It covers all functions of instant communication software, such as voice call, video calls for multiple people, file transfer and text chat.

Skype, as one of the popular web calls, owns 663 million users in the world. If you make the international calls through Skype, the charges can be $0.01 per minute at minimum. Skype can be used in PC, phone, television and PSV. Besides, it charges for free when you make Skype voice/video calls, as long as you and your friends are under network connection.

Part 2: How to Record Skype Video Call?

1. Use Recoding Function in Skype

As a useful application of Internet telephony, Skype contains the recording function. You can record the video calls if necessary. Here are the steps:

Step 1: Open Skype and navigate to the column [Call]. Then, make video call with your friends. When it is connected, click on [+] to select [Start recording].

Step 2: Record the screen and then click on [+] again to select [Stop recording].

The recorded calls will be saved in the dialog box of the chat that you made just now. But it can be merely kept for 30 days. Please download to the computer before the expiration.

PC users shall click on […] at the corner and then select [Save to Downloads]. Then, the video will save as MP4 in the local folder.

Phone users can tap the same icon and then save it on phone. After that, go to Album to check the video.

Although the recording function is easy to use in Skype, you should manually save the video to the computer and you cannot decide the video format. We recommend you try Renee Video Editor Pro. It can not only record screen, but also save the contents in the designated folder with the specific format.
