JPT Audio Recorder Example

Note
The legality of recording a phone call without disclosing the recording to the other party of the conversation differs from area to area. Please only use this feature in accordance with your local laws and, if in doubt, disclose the recording to the second party before recording.

Introduction
This script demonstrates recording a phone call using Audio Recorder from Ben Shanfelder <http://versiontracker.com/dyn/moreinfo/macosx/17392>. Audio Recorder allows you to record any audio that you can hear through your Mac’s speakers to an AIFF or MP3 file. Since JPT can dial the modem and pipe the audio through the speakers, it can keep the modem connected for your entire call and, using Audio Recorder, provide you with the ability to record your conversations (please see the note above). Normally, JPT will disconnect the modem 10 seconds after dialing but you can change this duration allowing you to record your calls for an indefinite duration.

The example scripts demonstrate making sure JPT is dialing through the modem with the sound on, changing the timeout to 24 hours, starting a recording in Audio Recorder, dialing, then waiting for you to manually tell the script that the call is finished. When you do, the script will stop the recording and disconnect the modem.
