Thank you very much, Dane, for this information. I have some additional questions:
1. Can I just type Command-R a second time to stop the recording? 2. Is a recording automatically stopped when the Skype session is intentionally terminated? 3. I guess I am also wondering if Audio Hijack is always set to automatically record when it is launched. I am wondering this since you said to let it automatically record all the time and if this is the case, then why the need for the Command-R? 4. Lastly, will Audio Hijack work with the latest version of Skype? I always appreciate your insightful help. Thank you!
