[Freeswitch-users] How to use mod_skypopen with the new Skype-4.3 without Pulseaudio server?

[Jacek]

Hi

I read a tutorial by Giovanni Maruzzelli.
http://lists.freeswitch.org/pipermail/freeswitch-users/2014-August/107455.html
These are my notes:

Theoretically, Skype 4.3.x is demanding Pulseaudio audio output.
I write theoretically, because I noticed that Skype works without a
problem thanks to the ALSA library itself Apulse.
https://github.com/i-rinat/apulse

In connection with the question whether it is possible with the help of
this library to connect Skype with FreeSWITCH using
eg mod_alsa or directly mod_skypopen?
Skypopen once used the ALSA API (version 1.0.x, as I recall).
Under ideal conditions, it would be best to libraries based on Apulse do
fork - eg library FsPulse,
that sound from Skype headed straight to the driver interface Skyopen,
eg / dev / skypopen.
Unfortunately, I am not a programmer, and I do not know how to change
the ALSA library API to OSS compatible with FreeSWITCH.

But if someone could create such a library to integrate Skype - FreeSWITCH,
it for many years to solve the problem with Skype, and potential
problems with possible errors Pulseaudio,
Pulse which are patched often even after two years, such as the famous
error: 866
http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/pulseaudio-bugs/2010-October/004195.html
If the cooperation of Skype with FreeSWITCH to be stable and predictable,
Pulseaudio in the middle of it is not in my opinion a good idea too.

Also would be easier to control operation of Skype by FreeSWITCH,
if the sound from Skype went directly to the server, without mediators,
where the shape and function of FreeSWITCH developers have no effect.
