I think I posted my original question in the wrong forum. Can a mod please

The Skype4COM.dll wrapper has the ability to record the incoming and mic audio on an active Skype call. I have successfully used Airwolf's excellent but can not get the syntax right for the call recording.

I have tried many variations of the below :

$aCall.CaptureMicDevice($oSkype.TCallIoDeviceType.callIoDeviceTypeFile,"C:\test123.wav") ; Record Mic input

$aCall.OutputpDevice($oSkype.CallIoDeviceType.callIoDeviceTypeFile)="C:\test1234.wav" ; Record incoming audio

To aid in testing I have created this script. The script attaches to Skype and Skype will prompt to allow permission. Once running it sits in the tray waiting for the call status to change. When an incoming call is received a msgbox will prompt the incoming call. Answer the call first then click the msgbox, it will go to in-progress and should start the recording. I keep getting "Invalid number of parameters" or "Type mismatch" errors from the COM error handler.

I've included several pieces of code that I've found in my research that work for C# and VB. I just cant translate them to AutoIt apparently.

Any help greatly appreciated.

Hello. Have you ever found a solution to your problem? I am also using the Skype4COMLib and need to record a call. I've seen the code here but I don't have that much experience with C# nor autoit, coming from a web application developing environment. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks!

I know you might have solved the issue, but in case you did not here is the solution for recording streams on SKYPE

func StartMonitor()
ConsoleWrite(@CRLF& "startmonitor" &@CRLF)
if $oSkype.ActiveCalls.count > 0 then
  $CallId = $oSkype.ActiveCalls.Item(1).ID ;1 is the active call
  $CallObj= $oSkype.ActiveCalls.Item(1); this is the general object
  $FileAudio= @DesktopDir & "\Audio.wav"
  $FileMic  = @DesktopDir & "\Mic.wav"
  $oSkype.ActiveCalls.Item(1).OutputDevice(2)=$FileAudio ;$CallIoDeviceTypeFile
  $oSkype.ActiveCalls.Item(1).CaptureMicDevice(2)=$FileMic
  consoleWrite(@crlf & "skype ID:" & $CallID)
  consoleWrite(@crlf & "skype name:" & $CallObj.PartnerHandle)
  consoleWrite(@crlf & "Real Name in:" & $CallObj.PartnerDisplayName)
EndIf
EndFunc
