[QUOTE="TesterBoy, post: 173257, member: 22382"] Hi Peter2 - The SkypeChatPlugin is no longer supported - most/all of its functionality is contained in the Skype4MP plugin provided here; also, the current version uses Skype4COM.dll (included in the Skype instllation), rather than the (rather old) ActiveS wrapper - you should probably uninstall/remove the ActiveS if you did install it. Get the latest version of Skype (3.5.0.xxx I think) from [url]www.skype.com[/url] and install it. (V1.4 is very old). Get Skype4MPv0110.zip from the post just above - unzip it then run the .exe. Open the MediaPortal Configuration, enable the Skype Plugin (down in the Window Plugins section), and set the parameters as you want... Note - the plugin has only been skinned for BlueTwo and BlueTwo Wide, so if you use another skin, you'll have to copy and/or modify the appropriate files (sorry!) Note: I've had one instance where the Skype4COM.dll wasn't installed - we couldn't work out why not, but I recommend selecting all Skype components - it may have been not installing the Skype Extras Manager that caused the problem... Copying the file from another PC and using regsvr32 worked fine to fix this problem. Let me know what happens! Andrew [/QUOTE]
