skype

I want to create a small console application to return current Skype status of the local Skype application if it's running (online / away / do not disturb / invisible / offline) and write history of its changes to the text file. How can I do this? Where to start? You can use Skype4Py for this: https://github.com/awahlig/skype4py It has GET/SET USERSTATUS command http://dev.skype.com/desktop-api-reference#COMMANDS tl;dr; The status checking URL is gone, your best bet is the API . Details There is an API aimed at web developers integrating call functions on their sites. It seems highly

Had quite an oddyssey tracking down the current location of the Skype data (found it in %AppData%/Local/Packages/Microsoft.SkypeApp\_<somehashcode>_/LocalState/<somegibberish>_<myskypeusername>.db ). A little more research to find out that it´s a SQLite database; installed SQLite Browser ; found all my contacts but no actual chat log. Tried other files in the subdirectory LocalState/DataRv without any satisfying results. Well, I wouldn´t wonder if there were no more local log files at all; but I gave it another shot: Installed Skyperious ; took a while to launch ... and it can´t find any data

I didn't find out how to login from a form in C# to Skype. Is there a possibility to do that? e.g. I type my username and password in a form and when I click sign in, an instance of skype will launch and log me with my credentials. Thanks a lot! You can launch skype with command-line arguments like this: skype.exe /username:your.username /password:your.password Found reference here , and tested working on my machine (Skype 5.1). It seems this is not officially documented, so it may disappear in future versions of Skype. Use System.Diagnostics.Process.Start to launch a program from C#. May be

I have a Skype bot attached to a working Skype instance in X (Linux). The problem is that the messageStatusChanged event is not always triggered when an incoming message comes. It does in most cases, but sometimes the messages are just "lost". I can see them appearing in the Skype client, but the Skype4Py's event is not triggered for some reason. There's no any difference for these messages in what they contain. Why can that be happening? No solution but I investigated this a bit further because I am asking myself the same question. You can use dbus-monitor to see if the incoming message had

I am using Delphi 6 with DSPACK to do several operations involving audio and DirectX. I have the "input" side figured out where I assign one of the enumerated audio input devices to a TFilter object and connect that filter to a TSampleGrabber object and that gives me the audio buffers I need to send audio to Skype. It is the logical inverse of that graph that I need to figure out. I receive audio buffers from Skype via a socket. I need to create a graph that has a filter that would be the complement to TSampleGrabber. In other words, a TFilter that instead of delivering audio buffers during an

I want my c# UWP App to support calling numbers. When I'm on W10 mobile I want it to use W10 PhoneCall API normal (this is working) Windows.ApplicationModel.Calls.PhoneCallManager.ShowPhoneCallUI(number, name); but on W10 Desktop/PC I won't have a GSM provider, so I thought, maybe use skype to call the number, the user pressed. Is that possible via UWP? Maybe similar like opening websites: await Windows.System.Launcher.LaunchUriAsync(new Uri(website)); Yes， it's possible and you're right about using Launch the default app for a URI to open Skype from your app. For the question what Uri can we

Does anybody know if it is possible open Skype.app to call phone via - (BOOL)openURL:(NSURL *)url UIApplication message? If it possible, what url a need pass to this message? Thanks Just for reference, this seems to have changed when multitasking support was added: starting at least with Skype 2.1.0, this URI works fine: skype:+33123456789?call By looking at Skype's Info.plist file (you can open it from the ipa file iTunes has downloaded), you can tell it has no URL registered, so you won't be able to call it from your application. You should look for a key called CFBundleURLTypes (you can

Newbie to using the Contacts Contract Content Provider. I'm trying to make a skype call from within my application, and I can't figure out how to get the skype info from the android contacts. I am running a query through a ContentResolver to get all of the data for the contacts, but I don't know how to find the skype name within the data. This is working for me: public String getSkypeID(Context mContext, String contactID) { Log.i("getContactNumber"); String returnID = "noMatch"; ContentResolver cr = mContext.getContentResolver(); Cursor skype = cr.query(ContactsContract.Data.CONTENT_URI, null,
