Hi Barbara,

We're interested in this as well, but have run into similar problems.

The only (semi-) working solution we've found so far is SAM -
http://www.kishkish.com/sam/ - which is unfortunately a PC only
product. With SAM, in order to record two people having a conversation,
you need to do a 3 way conference call which includes a third computer
set up with a SAM account. The two people have their conversation, and
the third computer acts as an answering machine, recording the whole
thing. Since the computer with the SAM account can only record one call
at a time, you need an extra computer for every pair, making this a
workable solution only for single calls or small classes.

I'd very much like to hear other things people have tried.

Thanks!

Doug

Greetings:

We are having a devil of time trying to find a tool that will record 
*both* sides of a Skype conversation on a Mac running 10.3 and soon 
10.4.  We have tried Audacity (the stereo mix function does not exist
on 
macs as it does for PCs), we have tried Audio Hijack Pro, we have tried

Wire Tap,we have tried LineIn and JackOSX, and finally  Audio Recorder

(that one actually worked, but the user could not hear --either-- side

of the call while it was recording!).

We need something that would not involve too many cartwheels to make it

work, as we would like the students to be able to use this on the 
machines in the center.

Any suggestions?


Barbara
