Post by Walter »

I am looking for a way to translate the signal of the MagicJack calls into a WAV or oher audio format on my computer as the calls are eing made. ANY help will be greatly appreciated.

after googling.....
I am currently using . The solution to recording calls via Mac or Vista is to download a program called 'Audacity'. once installed choose Preferences ->and change the device to: 'Unknown USB Audio Deivce', and each time you call someone and want to record them, you let the program run/record. Then save and export as .wav file. It works quite well
.

I've tried Audacity and it worked great.
However, you'll have to switch to the headset mode and use a microphone to conduct the conversation.
I've tried many recording applications and none of them worked, including Audacity, if you are using the real phone to make the call instead of doing it via the PC headset/microphone.
I have found a pretty cool program that seems to work. I have only used it for about an hour so I am still playing with it. The program's name is stepvoice and here is the link. »stepvoice.com/index.shtml

If you know where to look you can get stepvoice for free :)

Recording calls with CallN

Post by blazer123 »

Have you tried http://www.calln.com ?
It is all automatic and doesn't require skills with wireshark.
A standard mp3 file is created.

Magicjack simply uses the standard SIP protocol.

GoogleVoice creates a sound file and transcribes to text (with numerous errors usually). You create a new phone number on GoogleVoice and then link it to your MJ number.

Although a little more expensive, Magicfeatures state they have call recording -
