AMU-Skype
AMUSkype is a communication tool. It offers instant messaging, audio and video calls, or web conferencing
The whole university can benefit from this communication service. Staff, teachers, researchers and students can communicate with each other in a secure way.
Installation procedure
- Download the installation file here.
- Once installed, launch Skype.
- Authenticate yourself with your email address and your AMU password.
- If you know your username but it doesn’t work, try changing your password at this address : https://sesame.univ-amu.fr.
If you do not have AMU identifiers, ask your HR managers for them.
(Internal backup solution here : https://documentation.osupytheas.fr/restricted-access/amuskype/lyncentry.exe with Osupytheas login)
Audio/video configuration
With a Jabra headset
Go to the Skype Business menu / Preferences… then the Audio/Video tab and apply the settings below.
The microphone will be redirected to the headset as well as the sound. However, the ringing of calls will be done on the speakers, so you don’t have to keep the headset on your ears to hear a call.
Change your profile picture
To change your AMU Skype profile picture, go to ENT. Then log in to your mailbox.
Click on your profile picture at the top right of the screen and then on Edit.
Finally, click on Upload Photo.
All Skype documentation on the DOSI website
You will find at this address the complete documentation of AMUSkype.
Renavisio
Beyond 2 or 3 other calling sites (depending on the licence purchased), it is necessary to use a videoconference “bridge” or “gateway”. The CNRS provides such a bridge at the national level on https://renavisio.renater.fr.
On this site you just have to log in and book a videoconference date… all the connection information (videoconference identifier and password to participate) is sent to you by email.
Attention: in the video reservation panel you have a button “advanced settings” at the bottom. It is preferable to choose “Scopia” so that a maximum of configurations are compatible (Codian: Windows only, Scopia: Windows and Mac)
Example of a video conferencing appointment made via the Renavisio Gateway:
------------- CONFERENCE ----------------- -- Titre : comite_forma_BPU_80510 -- Date : 25 juin 2012 -- Heure : 14:00:00 heure locale -- Duree : 03:00:00 -- Numero a appeler : ---- IP : 193.48.95.81 ---- ISDN : +33 (0)4 26 68 73 01 ---- TEL : +33 (0)4 26 68 73 01 -- Identifiant numerique : 80510 (terminer par #) -- Code PIN : 7642 (terminer par #)
From a video system
After dialling the network address of the videoconference bridge, 193.48.95.81 in the above example, you will need to give :
- – the numerical identifier : 80510# et
- – the login password : 7642#
From a web browser (Windows and Mac only)
In your web browser type the IP address of the conference (e.g. 193.48.95.81) or click on the ‘direct link’ in the email.
- In the case of Codian: Click on the conference tab, then on the line for your conference on “conference me”. You will then be asked to install the latter (to be done once and for all).
- In the case of Scopia: you will need to install the Scopia software once and for all.
Attention: it will be necessary to indicate to your browsers to authorize the modules (ex: conference client dispatcher) for everything to work. Either you have a small banner at the top of the window asking you if you want to allow it or you have to go to your browser settings.
All you have to do is click on the link to start the video. Finally, enter the PIN code that was sent to you by email and the video is launched.

Videoconferencing with several people
On some sites it is possible to be called by several people simultaneously on video conferencing systems.
It is also possible to use a virtual room. This room allows you to connect with several people at the same time. Renavisio is one such service that offers a virtual room to chat with several people.
Renater’s appointment-based videoconferencing service (JITSI)
This service is an alternative to Skype that does not require any specific installation on your workstation.
This service works best with the “chrome” browser (rather than Firefox)
Simply click on create, log in and then invite people using the button in the top menu.
The menu at the top of the web page allows you to:
- protect the videoconference with a password
