Hey, does anyone know of a simple way to force Skype to use standard resolution instead of HD. As I'm working on stuff for several hours with some teammates, I don't want to eat my bandwidth with HD video and it's making my computer work harder (activity monitor shows 100% out of my possible 400%), making it sound like I'm strapped to a 747 on the other end of the line.
 
There is something you can edit in a Skype preference/plist file to change the video resolution. Search on Google.
