Background blur for video calls

Please enable Jami to blur the background when in a video call.

What is background blur in Skype?

When the focus belongs on you and not your room, you can choose to blur your background during a video call in Skype. The option to blur your background is available in Skype on Windows, Mac, Linux, and Skype for Windows 10 (version 14).

How do I blur my background during a video call in Skype?

To start your call with the background blurred, hover over the video button button and select Blur my background. To blur your background during a call, hover over the video button or select the More menu and then select Blur My background.

How do I blur my background for all video calls in Skype?

To turn background blur on for all calls, click your profile picture and click Settings. Click Audio & Video then toggle Blur my background for all calls to On.

Why don't I see the option to blur my video?

In order to blur your background in Skype, your computer processor needs to support Advanced Vector Extensions 2 (AVX2). For more information, check with your computer manufacturer.
