What causes distorted video in a Skype video call?

[Android Central Question]

My contacts tell me my video is badly distorted with vertical lines during a video call using my cellphone (Motorola Droid Turbo, XT1254). It's so bad they cannot see me. This hasn't happened in the past and there is nothing wrong with the camera. A repair shop told me they don't know what's wrong either, but suspected the problem could be the result of a recent Skype update. Any thoughts or suggestions?

Here's another update to the problem I recently reported. Today I took a chance and updated the Skype app to version 8.53.0.104 on my Motorola Droid Turbo. To my surprise, the video call function is working perfectly again. I never got a response from Skype but somewhere along the line one of the recent updates must have fixed the problem. Just thought I'd let everyone know.

Thanks for the update ..
