Voice Clip Sender allows you to send Plus! Custom Sounds as voice clips and sound files as voice clips. It can also override the sending of Plus! Custom Sounds from the sounds panel and send them as voice clips instead. In addition to this, Voice Clip Sender provides new features for sending voice clips.

Download at Script Database (version 1.0.102): http://www.msgpluslive.net/scripts/view/243/
Voice Clip Sender requires Plus! version 4.11 or above.
Special thanks to TheSteve, who this script would not be possible without.

The currently supported commands in Voice Clip Sender are:

• /vc <time in seconds> <optional, delay in seconds> - sends a voice clip with the specified time and delay
  The input device is changed to the one specified in the options, there will be another command to not change it in a later release
  
  
• /vcplus <sound identifier> - sends a Plus! sound with the specified identifier as a voice clip
  In a later release it will accept keywords as well
  
  
• /plus <sound identifier or keyword(s)> - sends a Plus! sound as a Plus! sound
  Only is enabled if replacing custom sounds with voice clips is enabled

Cool, it works

Hello,
I have  problem with this script.
configuration
I also tried other audio inputs but didn't change my problem, which is this one:
Problem

The sound that I tried to send was the one I had sent previously (2 hit combo @ Ra_Ven).

Also, can't the script auto add all the plus sounds that i already had before? It would be a pain in the ass to add them all over again.

Regards,
Ace-_Ventura                                                       

For your configuration problem, which inputs are listed in the combo box other than wave? What does "select current device" select?

For your second two problems, I believe the script only works on the English versions of windows in the current version. I will do my best to change this soon

works well, have you thought about making other common audio types  work on the scirpt aswell such as .m4a .rma etc?

I have this options Input. Dunno how some of them are called in english, but it doesn't solve the problem.
"select current device" doesn't do anything -I think-.
If the problem is of my version being non-english, what does that change on the code? the folder where the sounds stay is different?

code:

'Documents and Settings\\All Users\\Application Data\\Messenger Plus!\\Custom Sounds\\'

ermm.. no it doesn't... if it does then you take a totally wrong approach in getting the directory.

Moreover, the custom sound directory isn't always located in the "documents and settings" directory either...

I didn't took a look at your script, but never ever hard code a path. Second, never ever use the "Special Folders" registry key to get to special folders like "Documents and settings". Never ever use environment variables to get to it. What you should do is using Windows API like SHGetSpecialFolderPath and the likes.

EDIT: after reading your post further I see you indeed hard code the path. This is the worst method you can do actually (even reading the special folders key in the registry is a better method than that).

it doesn't change after you've installed Plus!... but it is not always the same for everybody when they first install Plus!.

---

thanks, it's working now . Great script I must say

And even if nothing changed, you must never ever hard code a path.

I have changed the code to get the path using SHGetFolderPath. It will be changed in the next update . I have not accounted for (1) yet, and imo (2) is pretty unlikely -- wouldn't that screw up Plus! as well?

^^ trade secret here?

this still isn't correct....

...

no as Plus! uses proper methods to get paths like "documents and settings", "program files", etc, etc... it uses the SHGetSpecialFolderPath , SHGetSpecialFolderLocation, SHGetPathFromIDList, etc APIs like every program should (and does).

Wow, I really like this script. It works well.
Just one question- Is there any way to adjust the volume level of the voice clip?
Thanks!

This script's great! It looks, feels and works great! The sound of my speakers isn't that good, so the sound's quality is a bit less but it's an awesome way to send people who don't use Plus! a custom sound. Maybe Patchou should use voice clips as alternative for the Emotion Sounds?

Both thumbs up!

Nice script,congrats

Voice Clip Sender has been updated! If you have it installed, you should be prompted to update soon.

The new version contains support for multiple Windows languages, many more sound files, and more. There are also various bugfixes. It is recommended that you update immediately.

When Send Plus! Sounds in the menu is clicked., no sounds are displayed in the list although i have many. Here is the debug.

Error: Invalid root in registry key "HKCU\SOFTWARE\Patchou\Messenger Plus! Live\GlobalSettings\CustSounds\036831319C56\Name"..

Am too sleepy atm . Will look @ the code and let you know the mistake after some time .

Nice script btw .

PS: since you read sound ID from the registry, take in account that a user can have a private sound library instead of a public sound library.

Hi,

I have this problem when I try to send an VC.

Translated:

This command could not be loaded or there are to less vars used.

Between the command and the first var, there always need to be one space. If the tekst should not be send as a command then remove one slash ( the character: "/") on the start of the sentence or a add another slash.

Specs:
Windowslive in En/Us
Msgpluslive in Dutch

Greetings me.

This doesnt work in vista 32bit with wlm 8.1 and msgplus 4.11

almost 2 months ago. When will it be released?

---

nice but sounds are not sent and options doesn't work

anyone????

someone plz help i need that script to work badly  

Damn I needed this script badly too.

Is there any plans for you to continue working on it so that it works again?

Or at least, could someone tell me how can I manually set this script's options so that I can chose "What U Hear" without having to use the options menu (which does not work).

I have just found this script and installed it. But there are some problems and suggestions if you still want to work on it (I don't think so though.)

1- When I select "Send Plus! Sound" from script's menu in the conversation window, the Send Plus! Sound window doesn't list the custom emotion sounds that I have in my sound library.
2- When I send a custom emotion sound from sound panel (with the related option is checked in script's options) the voice clip recorder starts but the sound isn't played in my computer so nothing is recorded hence nothing can be sent to the contact. The same bug occurs when using /vcplus command with a custom sound's identifier.
3- Suggestion: Specifying a path of a sound file for the /vc command as well as the current parameters <duration> and <delay>

Sorry, I've been busy lately and working on other things, it probably won't be released for a while.

Is there anyway to make files longer than 15 seconds to be clipped on the next version?
