How to Get a Rocketfish Webcam to Connect With Skype
Rocketfish produces a standard and high-definition webcam, both of which are compatible with Skype. Skype is a VoIP (Voice over IP) program that allows you to call friends or family and chat with them via voice and video. After installing the Rocketfish webcam and its drivers it must be manually configured within the Skype program. If you have more than one webcam connected to the computer, the Rocketfish webcam must be assigned as the default webcam device in Skype before it will work.
