Groupcalling with video, when only one person has premium

Hey there Skype :happy:

 

I have two questions to group video calling:

 

If i upgrade to premium and makes a group for group videocalling; will I have to be online then, for the others in the group to talk or do I need to be there talking too everytime.

 

Second question is related, im wondering if anyone in the group i make, will be able to make a call to the group, even if its me having the premium account

 

Thanks in advance

Hi, bodyluno, and welcome to the Community,

 

Please see this information about video group calling:

https://support.skype.com/en-us/faq/FA10613/What-do-I-need-to-make-a-group-video-call

Here is an excerpt from the information within the above link:

"To make a group video call, at least one of the people on the call must have Skype Premium (for personal accounts) or a group video subscription (for business accounts). If you’re not sure which type of account you have, it’s easy to find out."

 

Best regards,
