Skype4MP with video (4 Viewers)

[mts]

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

Well, here it doesn´t work at all - only get a screen with property names
Can´t even open the hidden menu

probably the skin files are missing.

 

[catavolt]

skin file is there - what are the correct skinfiles for DefaultWide?

 

[mts]

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

 

[catavolt]

Yup, that are the same files
Still get this:

BTW: My Skype version is 6.20.0.104 - do I have to setup anything in Skype itself?

 

[mts]

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.
