Title: Over the last few days, skypeweb seems to not be able to log into skype very wel
Post by: thosrtanner on 11 12 2016, 17:52:04
Once I have poked it a few times its fine, but I need to go online in the main window two or three times for it to sort itself out, and get the correct status of my friends in skype, and for it to stick - it'll often go blue in the main window then complain I'm not logged in when I first try to chat.

I have these issues as well. Very often, I'll have to stop trying to log in and just wait a few minutes, then I can log in again normally. I thought it was related to having to restart miranda but it just seems to be (perhaps) some kind of flood control from skypeweb or I dunno. Basically if I don't log in on the first attempt, I have to give up for about 5 minutes. And Skypeweb also doesn't stay connected much at all. Not sure why this is.

Dunno if this is related but after today's updates, the skype status is now locked and doesn't follow the rest of the protocols (I assume it's the online/offline/etc status, rather than the account status. that possibly wasn't the best word to use).

*Update* No sorry, just me. Somehow I managed to click the name on the status sub-menu and lock it. It seems to be easier to do that than to work out how to undo it.

Same here.
Skypeweb does not login anymore since some time ago.

Hi guys,
I've been having the same problem for a while.Sometimes it can connect after 2-3-4-5 attempts.But sometimes it takes more than 15-20.Half of the time it changes status to online,and it actualy isn't.I'm using the latest versions of MirandaNG and skypeweb plugin.

I find it won't reliably log in unless I have the official skype client running, in which case it's fine. It will often log me out after inactivity and then I can't log back in unless I start the official (windows) skype client

In my case it doesn't matter if the skype app is runnig or not.It still can't connect until several attempts (sometimes more than 10).

Yeah the skypeweb protocol (but also the skype protocol itself) is utter garbage. I gave up on it... Discord/Tox/Steam for everyone.

I'm not nearly as patient as you!. I give up after two or three tries
