Re: Skype on a smart TV?

I recently turned my 8 years old dumb plasma TV with a smart tv by hooking a smart dongle to it. I can install any app from Google play store and I did install but have not used it yet. I do not know how am I going to talk to someone. I will report back once I try it out. That dongle did not come with a user manual. It costed me only 12 dollars at Amazon.com.

If you don't have Skype on your smart TV, or if your TV is not a smart one, you can buy a webcam with built in Skype app.

I have a LG TV with Skype, its fine for basic Skype use, hard for them to hear me with the speakers on. Skype is much better on mobiles phones and Tablets than smart TVs
