Skype Phone Recorder Software

Ned Goudy

I just wanted to chime in here and
say that I have tried 3 or 4 different
Skype recorders (paid for two) and
only found 1 that worked.

I run under Windows XP with ADSL
Internet connection at 1.5 mbps Download
and 750 kbps Upload.

I have found that Freecorder 2.3 does everything
it says it does and works. I used Gramophone
and paid for it and EVERY MESSAGE was garbled
and sounded like it was underwater EVEN if the
phone conversation sounded fine in Skype.

I used two other freeware programs with the same
result.

But Freecorder works great!

Only restriction is that you can only record in 64 kb
rate with Free version AND you can only record up
to 2 minute conversations. Thus, I did buy the program...
and before anyone of you a.c.f pursits or fascists gets started,
YES, I did buy it, and yes I am a happy camper.

PS: I have no financial interest in this company and provide
the above information as a public service to all the great
members and visitors to alt.comp.freeware. No flames please.

This program is free for 30 days and then
you pay. It looks good and I am encouraged
that many many developers are starting to
do add-ons for SKYPE.

The Pamela software looks like it might work,
but I must say that the Free Corder is very simple
to use and has a small footprint (fairly small.)

The Free Corder 2.3 seems to SLIGHTLY degrade
the quality of the SKYPE call but it is LIGHTYEARS
ahead of the poor, poor quality that I and all Gramo
users have experienced. (Even for the Paid Gramo unit.)

I expect the software and quality to continue to improve
as the number of people creating software for SKYPE
increases.

Thanks for this. I see is also records streaming audio which some
will find useful. Pity about the 2min VOIP limit in the free version.
