Audio group calls #20

Open CapSel opened 8 years ago

CapSel commented 8 years ago

Since Feb22 '16 it does not work - no one (not even me) can join audio group call. One can host such group call. All of this with "fresh" new skype from m$... version 4.3 since 2014 (older?).

Probably this should be converted to support skype4windows@linux? https://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=version&iId=31461

I can't get IE8 to work in windows8 mode (winecfg -> Windows 8). Skype probably uses IE to show images, and it needs windows8 (or above) to support sound.

@CapSel Possibly we could install a specific (older) skype version that resolves the issue. If you are aware of the skype version that works, then do let me know. I'll see what I can do :smile:

Okay seems like downgrading skype isn't going to change anything http://mspoweruser.com/skype-for-linux-is-broken-and-users-arent-happy/. I think we just have to wait. I am not sure if I can get skype working in a container using wine. This is something I had tried (and failed) when I was hoping to install IE in the sameersbn/browser-box container.

I've found out that even skype4windows@linux can't join group calls. So please mark this issue accordingly.On nie, 2016-04-17 at 00:30 -0700, Sameer Naik wrote:
