API is not working any more - CommandFailedException while recording calls

[tatvaharshal]

Hello @taksan,

First of all, Thank you for the API.

I have been using skype-java-api successfully for call recording. But, now I am getting an exception while recording calls.

Below is the exception:

com.skype.CommandFailedException: ALTER CALL: unable to alter input/output at com.skype.Utils.checkError(Utils.java:77) at com.skype.Call.setStreams(Call.java:769) at com.skype.Call.setOutputStreams(Call.java:751) at com.skype.Call.setFileOutput(Call.java:645) at com.tatvasoft.skype.recorder.listners.AudioCallListener.actionPerformed(AudioCallListener.java:116)

Below is the sample code:

@Override public void callMonitor(Call call, Status status) throws SkypeException {

if(call.getStatus().compareTo(Call.Status.INPROGRESS) == 0) {
    try {
        call.setFileOutput(new File("speaker.mp3"));
        call.setFileCaptureMic(new File("mic.mp3"));
    } catch (Exception e) {
        e.printStackTrace();
    }
}

}

Although it is working sometimes with some versions of Skype for ex. 7.16.0.102, 7.28.0.101 ... But it's completely not working with latest Skype versions for ex. 7.29.0.101, 7.30.0.103 ...

OS Details : Windows 7, Windows 8, Windows 8.1 Java : jdk1.8.0_51 Skype version : 7.16.0.102 and above

Have you dropped all the support for this API? Is this a reason why I am not able to record calls ?
Could you please confirm this issue ?

TIA

I dropped all support, because Microsoft is phasing out desktop api (which is the basis for this library).

Sorry.

Thank you @taksan for your reply.

As we have a well developed desktop application based on this library which is now completely stopped working.

Is there any other work around or solution to achieve this ? If any please help me to find the solution for this.

TIA

You can use old versions of skype. Maybe you can also try to interface with skype web but that's all.
