Use other protocol

[Xinnony]

Hi everyone !

I try to use skype protocol in FA.

I add skype in init_faf.lua (on protocols table)
And try use in FA but not work.

But i can use http, why ?!

you want to have an option to automatically make a skype call with the players in the game?

[Xinnony]

Yes, or Mumble, open Mail, open Link (work already), ect...

up ?

Doesn't the FAF lobby's mumble integration make this redundant?

since many Users are not familiar with Mumble but TeamSpeak/Skype I would appreciate some wider VoIP Support in FAF.

Xinno: May you can have some tricks at the Skype for Pidgin plugin, since it's open source you have all functions you need there.

Doesn't Skype register itself with the system as handling "skype://" URIs?
If so, it's sufficient to just dispatch a request for such a URI and let all the magic happen for you, instead of trying to do the sort-of-hard thing of talking to an external program yourself.
