[Steve88]

I already have a $12.95 subscription plan for "Unlimited World" but I been asked to get Skype Premuim in oder to share screens? So I need another plan to share my screen? Using Skype  5.8 beeing a customer for years.

Looking forward for an explanation.

GOT THIS ANSWER FROM "NormanMusgrave"

Hello Steve,

The recently released 5.8 version enables Group screen sharing. To take part in a Group video call, one participant needs to have "Premium".

Otherwise you don't need Premium and it's not required for 1 to 1 screen sharing.

Unfortunately they blocked the reply botton in my thread. Here is my answer:

Thank you for your answer, I wanted to do 1 to 1 sharing, no Group screen sharing. 1 to 1 sharing does NOT WORK with 5.8 but worked fine with previous versions.

Please help.

I just tried so share my screen with 2 other persons, one of them is a premium user

Unfortunately it didn't work, even if the premium user tried to share his screen

What did we wrong?

I want to attach also my question to this topic. I have bought subscription 'skype premium'. I called to my friend via 'call a group' (I have seleted only one person) and after the call was finished the skype credit on my basic account was reduced. Why my calls are not covered by the subscription for which I have paid?
