I am trying to write an application that will record both sides of a phone conversation using my computers modem. I would like it to start listening as soon as a phone is taken off hook somewhere on the line. I would like to save this to a wav file on my hard drive. Anyone have any ideas??
Sounds sneaky ;)
hmmm. Well, It wouldn't be one of the easiest things to do. The wav part would require using low level multimedia API... wave* functions. To check if the phone is off the hook and getting the sound from it is somehting I can't help you with though.
It is an easier way to do this, but not very professional.
Anyway, it might work.Use a Comm control to access your modem(reference in VBHelp).
Then,use an OLE control and link it to SoundRecorder.It is
a little complicated recording the both-sides conversation,but you can solve this
conecting the microphone to the both speakers of the phone.
Now, you can easily record the conversation calling the Record event of the SoundRecorder when your modem(or the other one,but you must call through your modem) answers.
Can anyone tell me how to just 'lift the handset' on the modem so i can listen in on calls on the same line.
And yes, it is sneaky ;)
Sneaky bastards, if you find out let me know! LOL
