Re: Does Group Video still work IF only one of you has a premium account?!

I do not see an answer to this question. Am I looking in the wrong place? 

I am looking into purchasing a premium account. I am a teacher and would like to use the group call and screen share for live sessions with my online students. 

If I purchase the premium account do all of my students need to purchase the premium account in order to participate in group call and screen share?

 

Thanks for any insight!

This is off topic, a little. I purchased SKype, but all I can do is make phone calls. There is video. And there is no tool bar, thus can't go to options+general;video

What have I done wrong, can anyone tell me?

One person having a premium account should be enough. It works fine with me.
