Native voice call recorder for SailfishOS. The latest version is 0.7.4.

This application requires SailfishOS >= 2.0.4.

This application is designed for unattended usage. Once properly installed, it records every GSM call you make or receive. The UI application doesn't need to be run to make this happen.

Please refer to the wiki for usage instructions and troubleshooting.

There are support & discussion threads at TMO, jollausers, TJC.

Hi,

I did some clean up in recordings folder, changed settings for storage limit and problem disapeared.

In version 2.2.1, or more precisely in the latest 2.2.1.18, recording of incoming calls still does not work. Outgoing connections are recorded correctly.

Is there some way we users could help you dpurgin in getting around the issue of recordings being silent on SFOS X?

(edit: created an issue in github)

spacemanspiff's picture

On Sailfish X 2.2.0 recording files get created but there is no sound recorded in them.
It seems the sound recording function is not working

This issue appears to be fixed in SailfishOS 2.2.1

pasko's picture

Hi.

I have noticed the same, bit in my case it only happens with incoming calls: outgoing calls are recorder perfect!.

I'm wondering whether it is related to the updated version of pulseaudio in Sailfish 2.2.0.29.

Regards.

Hi,
During the bluetooth connection between headphone and smartphone is active, it is not working. Is there any fix about this case?
Thanks

Hi,
I don't have a Sailfish device to test it now but it definitely worked on Jolla 1 and Jolla C. What device do you have and what Sailfish OS version do you run?

Cheers

pkcon refresh

 

to update repositories?

Hello, thanks for great app.

Can you add feature to select for which SIM card calls will be recorded?

dpurgin's picture

Hi, 

as for now, both SIM cards are recorded automatically. I'm not developing the application actively due to absence of free time but some day I might get back to it!

Thanks & Cheers

Hi, i am unable to see the "ask to save or discard" dialog. In the logs, I see this: 

harbour-callrecorder: Thu Apr 20 04:35:24 2017: [0xb839ade0]: main.qml:167: : Subscribe result: undefined
harbour-callrecorder: Thu Apr 20 04:35:24 2017: [0xb839ade0]: EventsPage.qml:48: : file:///usr/share/harbour-callrecorder/qml/pages/EventsPage.qml:48: ReferenceError: header is not defined

ANy ideas?

ashakunt's picture

and while I realize that this ReferenceError might be unrelated, but I still see that the dialog asking for storage approval is not shown. I have to open the recorder to go and approve calls one by one. @dpurgin, any pointers?

 

Please note, I am using Intex aquafish and have disabled Sim2 on my phone.

dpurgin's picture

Hi,

seems like recent API changes in SailfishOS broke this dialog. You can still approve recordings from the app UI. Long tap on an item and it asks whether you want to approve or remove it

Cheers

I used pkcon install command and refresh before that but i wasnt succesfull. Still I dont have gst-plugins and no call recorder. Thanks for any help ! Sail On !  

dpurgin's picture

Hi!

You can install gst-plugins-good from https://dpurgin.github.io/, I've put it there just now

Marold's picture

Thank You Very much ! :D It works now. This app is a must have :) also thank you for your fast response and Sail On again ! :) 

paolomi's picture

Hi :) great app! could you make call recorder depend on gstreamer 1.x.y? now it depends only on gst 0.10. Many thanks

dpurgin's picture

Hi!

The plan was to introduce this dependency in the update for the next Saiflish version.

Are you experiencing problems with installing 0.7.1? Have you tried pkcon refresh in terminal?

Bysmyyr's picture

Hi,

thanks for great app. My dad said one thing to fix, it do record only calls from sim1, not from sim2

dpurgin's picture

Hi!

Thanks, it works in the latest version 0.7.1!
