Hi,
I've got a script created in AutoIT, using the Skype4COM API to automatically dial another Skype user when a specific keystroke is pressed. Once the call is established, I then use the API to turn-on both video send and receive. As the call is between two pre-determined contacts, I also have the Skype options set at both ends to automatically start video sharing (this is for a point-to-point video setup).
Most of the time this works fine, but sometimes (perhaps 1-in-5 times), the PC establishing the call doesn't display the video window - it just stays on the Skype Home screen window. Video is still being sent and received, but just not being displayed in a window on the screen.
Is there a way to determine why this is happening or, even better, to ensure video is visible?
At the moment, I make the Skype screen active/focused, then send the ALT-ENTER keystroke to make it full-screen. The problem is that sometimes the video window isn't shown, so this can't work.
Any ideas?
Thanks
