Converting Skype Voicemail to MP3

I discovered a neat trick with Skype does not offer a way that you can export a voicemail message to a universal file format such as MP3 or WAV. From the Hot Recorder for VoIP ($14.95), an app that lets you record both ends of a Skype phone call (and also works with some other messaging/VoIP applications). You can probably guess how it works: 1. Have Skype and Hot Recorder running 2. Get the voicemail you want to convert ready to play in your Skype app 3. In Hot Recorder, click the record' button. Wait a second or two to ensure it's started recording (the number counter will start advancing) 4. In Skype, click the play' button for your voicemail message 5. When the voicemail message has finished playing, click the 'stop' button in Hot Recorder. Fill in the details for file name, conversation with who, etc, as appropriate Now here's why you need the Pro version of Hot Recorder: 6. Launch the Audio Converter application - you only get this with the Pro version - and search for the file you want to convert (the file you've just recorded from the Skype voicemail) 7. Choose file type (in addition to WAV and Del.icio.us") | Yahoo! My Web Technorati: Neville Hobson is the author of the popular Crayon. Visit Neville Hobson's blog:
