O.P. Records don't store in folders [in skype 5.9]
I've used msng plus for skype first without problems.
After I reinstalled my laptop and installed msng plus for skype again, it didn't work like before:

It starts recording, show video compression dialog when stop recording, but it doesn't store local recordings where I want to.
After searching I found something in C:\Dokumente und Einstellungen\xxx\Lokale Einstellungen (local)\Temp\SkypePlus, but it isn't one file => 1 video file ("video"), 2 audio files ("yours" and "theirs").

It seems like encoding doesn't work.

I'm using skype version 5.9.32.114 and the newest msng, Windows XP SP 3.

***** What can I do? I would be glad if someone can help me in this case.


There seems to be others with the same problem.

Edith says "New situation":
When stopping the call, recording stops and encoding starts - and the file is available...

PS: Sorry for mistakes, English isn't my first language.


New situation/Solution:

It seems to be the solution... Downloading an old version of skype (5.8) - recording ok, encoding ok, file stores correct.

Hello asjhva,

Might the version of Skype you used when experiencing this problem be a beta version?

Nope, official version from skype page (5.9) - might be the business version.

Thanks ajshva, I will try and find out if it is the business version. I used to know a website where all them different versions were listed with version number and everything, but I can't find it anymore.

Officially Plus! for Skype only supports the regular free version.

oldapps provides every skype version, where I got the older skype version from.

Plus records without problems now (old version), but sometimes it crashes and open two or more icons in the taskbar.

If I have more time I'll try it with the newest skype version again.

RE: Records don't store in folders
hello again asjhva,

The buildnumbers of Skype are as follows:
5.9.0.114  - regular free version for Windows - http://www.skype.com/go/getskype
5.9.32.114 - business version for Windows - http://www.skype.com/intl/en/business/download/

After some testing (both versions) I found the following:
- It does record, encode/create a file if you let the recording stop on its own (end of call). This will work no matter if you keep the default folder or change it to one of your choice.
- If you stop the recording yourself (click stop recording button) the file does not get created, independant of which folder you store them in.

Can you confirm this?

Correct!

It was exactly the same when I used it.

Thank you for confirming :)

I've filed a report of these findings (#6276) so devs can have a look and fix.
