I was recently asked how I record skype calls and what are the best ways to go about it. I’ve tried many apps/addons for skype and these are the two that I love the most:

## Call Recorder for Skype by Ecamm (Mac)

Call recorder is a great addon for Skype that allows you to record audio and video locally. Call Recorder has many options for the type of output and in various formats:

- **None (Audio Only):** No video is recorded.
- **Picture-in-Picture:** Record video from both sides of the call in picture-in-picture format. The recorded video will look exactly as you see it during the call, with your video inset within the remote video.
- **Side by Side:** Record video from both sides of the call, with each side taking up half the picture.
- **Local Only:** Only the local side (video from your camera) will recorded.
- **Remote Only:** Only the remote side (video from the other participant) will recorded.
- **Two Track:** Records Local and Remote onto two video tracks within the QuickTime movie. The tracks can then be split into separate video files using QuickTime Player Pro or the included [Split Movie Tracks](http://www.ecamm.com/mac/free?ref=jasontucker.blog) utility.

[Call Recorder for Skype sells for $19.99](http://www.ecamm.com/mac/callrecorder/?ref=jasontucker.blog) it is by far the cheapest and most feature rich setup out there. There is a demo version so you can try before you buy.
