Enabling the auto answer feature in Skype

Asked By Dennis A Rech 0 points N/A Posted on - 05/17/2015

Dear all, I have two phones out of which one is an unused android phone (HTC Wildfire) which i would like to make use of as a surveillance camera at my home. My intention is to use Skype (as it is free). Whenever i want to view the scene, i will make a call to Skype. The Skype has to auto answer the call and enable video call by default. I need this solution for free. I will keep mobile for charging all the time. will that cause any problem? I have to check.

My Question: is it possible to enable auto answer with video facility in latest Skype software from Windows? Hints on any other alternatives for Skype for Android phones will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance!
