Expert Advice to find missing app

[vdosports]

I am trying to find an application that is most likely PHP and allows users to go their personal page and have built in recording buttons to record and compress their talking and then let it be saved so they can listen to it later. They would need to be able to leave several different voice modules. WHat are my best options for doing this? Thank you!http://www.webdeveloper.com/forum/images/smilies/tongue.gif

you would have to use a java applet such as JavaSonics (http://www.javasonics.com/)

There are numerous flash scripts around to do this exact thing. Basically that's all Skype is, a flash app built to pick up the webcam and mic.

I really appreciate your post - are you able to lead me in the direction of some sites that would have those types of flash scripts? Thanks!

You have to consider the users who do not have flash media installed, those who shun the technology also, some people dont have it installed because their browser is too old to support it, eg on older operating systems or text only browsers! and some just dont want it installed...

so your going to have to cater for those people or atleast inform them that they need support for flash and give them an option to bail out.

I too am interested in finding the "best" open source (free) flash record / play buttons!

ricp, would you please post a recommendation?

Alternatively you can use a standalone windows application like this:

It records voice file and uploads it to the server. Then you can just insert links to the voice message into your webpages.

Message is played directly from the server, people who want to listen to it don't need to download the file.
