Thanks for the feedback. Contacts and presence would go beyond the scope of the gateway. If the user wants that he must use the Skype client itself.

SMS messaging via Skype and chat is planned for in future releases…

Excellent. Works really well, and so very, very easy to install.

Couple of questions to other users/the developers:
I am not sure, besides interoprability, what features and services are able to be passed between the Skype gateway Service, the application, the 3CX and the end user client? I.e.

1.Will the users still see his/her Skype contacts?
2.Will he/she still see their availability/presance?
3.Will he/she still be able to instant message via Skype?
4.Can they inport the contacts?

And if so how?

thank you
Jonathan Harrison

Hi,

The only thing you can try that might get it working is a virtual audio device/driver On the original version I did have some success with this with HyperV and Windows Server 2003 and XP but no luck at all with Windows Server 2008.

If you find a way of getting it to work I would really like to know. Thank you.

Hi,
We are running 3cx on Hyper-V.
Workingfine (with some minorproblems) but for the Skype connection i read the following.

“Audio drivers must be installed and configured correctly – this is a Skype pre-requisite.”

Does this mean it wil not run on Hyper-V as it has no audio capabilities?

Please make a post on our Skype gateway forum. In our tests it uses very little CPU, so it is probably a configuration issue. Let us know what CPU usage we are talking about, operating system etc. Version of Skype and so on

It runs perfect but there is a lot of CPU time involved so for me its unusable…

Hi, there,

Skype has its own audio control devices . Please access tool/option/audio setting/volume. Hope this helps. Thanks,

Hi,

Looks good and much easier to install than the original release. Just one question and one comment so far

1. How can I set this up to automatcally run when I reboot my server?

2. The computer I’m using has a built in speaker and running on Windows XP Professional SP3. Even though I’ve tried to turn this off I get the sounds for ring and call conversation over the speaker. Thought there might be something in the bios or windows control panel to disable this. Even when I select mute all and no speakers in Windows control panel I still get sounds as described. Any ideas how I can disable this?
