Recording Software and Skype Problems

[StoicDeviant]

When I try recording video, with the software provided by Loopy, it's fine. It works.

However, when I try to Skype AND record, the recording software cancels Skype calls if I have it running before a call, or if I have a call going already, then the recording software refuses to record anything. It auto-stops itself/Skype auto-ends calls, depending on which is running first.

If there's no real fix to this, I'll understand, but please let me know if there's a way around this issue. My friends and I were planning something, but with this issue, I'd have to pay for and use Xsplit, which leaves little room for editing call audio and game volumes.

Please get back to me when you're able, Loopy, and thanks for the fine work on my 3DS modifications.

I believe this is more an issue with Skype than the capture program. Skype tries to hook any capture devices (mics, webcams, etc) which, in turn, stops the devices from being used by other programs.
