Video not working on HTC sensation and option is not in settings?

I have a new HTC sensation and have downloaded the new version of Skype via android market. Altho it says in the compatable phone list that the sensation can make video calls i am unable to? I have seen the posts saying to activate video calls in the skype settings menu but there is no option to?? Im confused!! - in the download notes it says if enable video calls is not visable in the settings menu then the phone is not compatable (but the sensation is in the list!!)

 

Please help?

I uninstall and install the new version 2.1 and now working fine. 

 

Get version 2.1 on the Android market. if you update it should now be possible to make video calls on your device. You may need to go to the settings menu and select "Enable video calling"

 I figured it out. All HTC Sensations must be held in landscape mode. Then go into your Skype settings and enable video chat
