There used to be a service (bill-on-skype-video-echo) to check the video part of the call - not provided by Skype - but it was taken down about a year ago.

Best I can suggest is to use two PCs/smartphones/whatever and two accounts, and call one to another to check out your settings.

.....  wonder if it is a video codec problem ....
