Skype Fixes TotalRecorder Issues
Version 1.1.0.79 appears to have finally resolved the conflict with TotalRecorder. I've downloaded this version and tested against TotalRecorder Professional v4.5 and it's working like a champ now. No more fatal errors when calling contacts!
UPDATE!
Apparently I blogged too soon. Though I was able to use TotalRecorder with Skype the other day, today I started receiving the same fatal errors that were occuring prior to the upgrade to version 1.1.0.79. So, for the time being, I guess this issue is (sadly) still unresolved.
