Ok, I downloaded the code and started some debugging.
I already fixed a few bugs (e.g. incoming calls show answer request twice; IgnoreIncomingCalls was assigned the the wrong option ( m_IgnoreIncomingCalls = options["IgnoreIncomingCalls"], etc.).

Anyway there are a "few" things I would change completely.
Videohandling:
- it is completely disabled in the moment
- the available code would try to get the windowHandle of the skypeVideoWindow and copy the content to a different window.
- The way it is implemented would result very poor performance. Maybe the easiest way to display video at the moment would be to show the native fullscreenVideoWindow of skype.

UserInteraction:
I would like to change the UI a little bit.
On incoming calls a Dialog pops up which asks if you want to answer. After selecting "yes" nothing else shows up.
There should be a status-window which shows:
- current call duration
- 2 buttons: hang up / toggle video

Here are some files.
Attention: I just copied this dll out of my debug-folder. It will probably throw some exceptions here and there.

    could you set mediaportal-logging to debug and post "mediaportal.log"[DOUBLEPOST=1413038631][/DOUBLEPOST]Just had an idea!
    When you start it the fist time, skype shout show a little dialog and ask for permission.
    It is possible that this window is hidden behind MP.

    Never saw this, because MP always starts in fullscreen - how may I show this and answer with yes???

    You can give this permission in skype directly.
    German skype: Aktionen -> Erweitert -> Zugriffsverwaltung (externe Anwendungen)
    If you see MediaPortal.exe in this list, just give permission.

    Anyway some logs would help as there should be an error.

    That’s not possible, MP2 is not YouTube. There are several skins with different appearance and skin settings. I really recommend you check the wiki first. Most things you ask are documented. PS: A thumbnail should be shown if named correctly (see wiki again) and recognized by the importer. But it will be located within the OSD bar...

    That fixed the problem. I just manually installed VC_redist.x64.exe and reinstalled 1.32 64-bit. Thanks for that. A couple of things; the deployment tool for 1.32 doesn't remove the previous version when you're updating from 1.31 to 1.32 and "MediaPortal TV Server" gets installed even when you choose to install the client only.
