I was recording a skype

I was recording a skype GROUP call and for some reason when I click record and stop it doesn't record anything what is the problem?

- You can check if the recording is in progress by checking status bar (bottom) of recorder. There should be changing figures shown actual size of mp3 file, it should be changing/increasing during recording.
- Allow MP3 Skype recorder automatically start and stop recording. Just leave recording button pressed to make it automatically record all calls.

When I go to a folder to look at the recording, it's gone.
Is there a setting where the program deletes mp3s of xxx days old?
Thank you

The recorder never deletes

The recorder never deletes files and there are no such settings. Probably you have changed target folder for recordings. Try searching for mp3 files on your hard drive.

Thanks for the reply

Skype recoder has correct permissions and used to record skype call automatically.
Everything indicates it is ready to record just waititng for Skype call, but does not launch.
Now, it is not working -- recording when I start a call.
Where should I look?

I've tested the recorder with

I've tested the recorder with this version of Skype, should be working fine. What is status of recorder, bottom string? Is it "Connected to Skype; Recorder:ON"?
Check that no personal firewall or security software is blocking connection between Skype and Skype recorder. Check that destination folder exist and you have permission to create files in there. Just try to create text file in that folder.
Try full reinstallation of recorder - uninstall, restart, install back. Try reinstalling skype.

Any idea what's causing that?

This may indicate that

This may indicate that Microsoft .NET Framework is corrupted. Try to update/reinstall it.

Hi, there -- I really love

Hi, there --
I really love your software and have used it for years. However the last two calls I've made -- calls around 30-45 minutes -- the recorder cut off about halfway through both times (at just after 15 minutes for one, around 17 minutes for the other). I have Windows 7, and the latest Skype and MP3 Skype Recorder. Nothing interrupted either call, and there was no indication that the recorder wasn't recording. Can you help?

Assuming that you've try to

Assuming that you've try to reinstall the recorder and using the latest version, check that nothing is blocking connection between Skype ans Skype recorder. Like personal firewalls etc, which is unlikely as there are some recordings done, but anyway check this.
Try to update/reinstall Microsoft .NET Framework. It is big framework and corruption of some files could lead to unexpected errors/behaviour. Upgrade to the latest version of Skype.
You can always check the recording progress if look on the bottom of recorder. There should red string showing current recording file size increasing during recording.

Hey, I just have one quick

Hey, I just have one quick question. I have the latest version of Skype and the MP3 Recorder. My friends and I record gaming footage for Youtube. While I'm talking, and if one of my friends talks at the same time (this happens even if there are only 1 other person in the call), it decides to cut out what I'm saying and keeps in what my friends say. Is there a way to fix this problem? Sorry if it's hard to understand my question, but it's hard to explain. It's as if my volume decreases dramaticly and my friends' volumes stay the same. It only happens if we talk simutaniously. I record with the Mono option with 64 bit rate. Thanks!

Try switching to stereo

Try switching to stereo mode. Each of your voices will be in separate channel. Stereo mode is better for sound editing as you can adjust levels for each voice separately. Anyway you can mix it to mono later and add to footage.

When i use the recorder to

When i use the recorder to record a call on skype the person i am talking to in the call cannot hear me while it is recording, but if i stop the recording and go back to listen to it in the .mp3 file i can hear myself and the other person on it fine, I also have the same problem when i try to record myself talking to the echo test service (cant hear myself in the call when it says i should). While if i dont use the recorder at all my microphone works fine and the other person can hear me.

That is strange. Try to

That is strange. Try to update Skype. Skype recorder is using Skype API to get audio stream and looks like somthing is going wrong in Skype in your case.

I love this program -- thank

I love this program -- thank you. There's one problem I've encountered, though, and it happened again today. I began recording a Skype call. Then I stopped the recording after 15 seconds and played it back just to make sure the levels were OK. Everything was great, so I started recording the call again. I clicked the Record button, and the message at the bottom of the recording read, "Recording: ON." But when I was finished with the call 20 minutes later, only one file showed up in my destination folder: this file was the original 15-second test; the 20-minute call didn't record. I've searched everywhere on my computer for this 20-minute call and I can't find it. In the future, if I stop a recording in the middle of a call, do I need to close MP3 Skype Recorder and then re-open it if I want to start recording again? Or is there something else I'm doing wrong? I'm using Windows 7 and Skype 5.10.0.116. Thanks--

I can't recreate the issue.

I can't recreate the issue. Start-stop-start working fine on my system. I'll perform more test

Thanks! Let me know if you

Thanks! Let me know if you find anything.

My Skype recorder stopped

My Skype recorder stopped working. I am using Version 3.1 for the recorder and the version right before 6.0.0.120 was the version of Skype right before where my Recorder stopped working. As I updated Skype, the recorder still is not working.

I am using Windows 7 home version for my OS.

I just noticed that 3 days ago was the last time that my recorder stopped working, if you need a time reference.

I've tested this Skype

I've tested this Skype version with Windows 7, no problems were found. Please check that recorder is allowed to access Skype:
Start Skype and sign in with the account you are going to record.
Choose Tools from the upper menu and click Options.
In the new window click Advanced tab on the right and click "Manage other programs' access to Skype" (bottom)
Look for MP3Skype recorder.exe in the list (could be few) and check that it is marked "Allowed to use Skype".
If not allowed click Change button, select allow and save your settings.
