Hey everyone! I’m trying to build a Telegram bot that can keep track of voice chat activities. I want it to log who joins the voice chat and also record the audio. I’ve been looking around online but haven’t found much info on how to do this.
I’ve already started working on a basic voice chat tracker bot, but I’m not sure how to add the audio recording feature. Has anyone here done something similar before? Any tips or advice would be super helpful!
I’m pretty new to bot development, so I’d appreciate any guidance on where to start or what libraries I should look into. Thanks in advance for any help you can offer!
yo, recording audio might be tricky legally. maybe try focusing on tracking who joins/leaves instead? You could use the pyrogram library for that. it handles voice chat stuff pretty well. just make sure you’re not breaking any privacy rules, ya know?
I’ve worked on similar projects before, and I can tell you it’s not straightforward. The main issue isn’t technical - it’s legal. Recording voice chats without consent is a big no-no in most places. Instead, I’d suggest focusing on tracking join/leave events. You can use the Telethon library for this - it’s pretty robust for handling voice chat events. As for implementation, you’ll want to set up event handlers for voice chat updates. These can log user IDs and timestamps when they join or leave. Just remember to be transparent with your users about what data you’re collecting and why. Good luck with your project!
As someone who’s dabbled in Telegram bot development, I can share some insights. Tracking voice chat activity is doable, but recording audio is a minefield of legal and ethical issues. I’d strongly advise against it.
Instead, focus on logging join/leave events. The pyrogram library is great for this - it’s what I used in a similar project. You can set up event handlers to capture when users enter or exit voice chats, storing user IDs and timestamps.
Remember, transparency is key. Make sure your bot’s purpose is clear to users, and only collect data you absolutely need. If you’re storing any user info, implement proper security measures.
One tip from my experience: consider adding a feature that generates voice chat usage reports. Users often find this valuable, and it’s a safer way to provide insights without crossing privacy lines.
