Riviera for Skype

Riviera for Skype is a lightweight Windows application whose purpose is to help you automatically record your Skype conversations and output them to MP3 file format.

The utility is able to record any type of Skype calls, like Skype-to-Skype calls, SkypeIn / SkypeOut, conference calls, and calls to cells. The calls are stored in separate MP3 files and you can record Skype calls of any length.

In order to proceed with the recordings you need to have Skype installed on your computer and allow Riviera for Skype to connect to the instant messaging client.

Riviera for Skype sports an intuitive design that displays a list with all Skype calls directly in the main window. You can check out details about the full name, date, time, duration, and file size.

What’s more, you can start or stop the recording process and make use of the built-in audio player for starting, stopping or pausing the current audio recording, adjusting the volume, and seeking for a position in the audio streams. An online help manual is available in case you cannot decode the program’s settings on your own.

You can start Riviera for Skype at Windows startup, run Skype when you open the tool, ask for confirmation before you exit the utility, pick the saving directory where you can store the recordings, open the output folder directly from the configuration panel, as well as automatically start the recording mode when inbound/outbound calls are detected.

By default, the recordings are saved to MP3 file format. There’s no support for other audio formats, like OGG and WAV.

All things considered, Riviera for Skype comes packed with smart features for helping you record interviews, tech talks or conferences. The intuitive design makes it suitable for rookies and professionals alike.
