TeamSpeex 1.0 Beta 2

TeamSpeex TeamSpeex 1.0 Beta 2 is now available for download, it has alot of improvements over the previous public beta.

So go grab your copy from the downloads page now!

This beta now supports Voice Activation which was the most requested feature. Most of the client and admin commands are implemented as well, such as Sending Text Messages, Registering with the Server and Creating/Editing Channels.

And the most important is that I have fixed most of the critical bugs that were found in the previous beta. Thanks to all the testing and the bug reports from you guys and gals! :D

Unlike the previous beta, this beta build is compatible with Panther and Tiger, but it will probably not run on a Mac OS X version below 10.3.9.
For all the Jaguar users out there, I am sorry that this doesn’t run on your Mac yet. but don’t feel left out, I will work on it.

For the ones that still dont know about it, I have setup a forum where you can ask questions, report bugs or discuss anything regarding TeamSpeex. You may still use the blog comments for feedback but it’s recommend to use the forum for complicated questions.
I occasionally put new test revisions (non public release) on the forum as well, so keep an eye on it if you are interested in testing the latest revisions.

  4. Stefano Rota Says:

    GREAT!! Its improved, now I can see the people that are already logged in!! WAY TO GO! Now we need it to work right with XPLANE!!!

  5. helium Says:

    Great job! This is a big step forward even from your last release on 11/8.

    Now…how about Growl integration?

  6. James Thomson Says:

    Can you make a server applicatiom that will make us able to create our own server next….Please :P

  7. WhiteSavage Says:

    We all really appreciate what you’re doing. Thanks for the new features and I’m glad everythings going well with the developers of Teamspeak.

  8. sss4r Says:

    You do excellent work, bro! And at impressive speed, too. Just had to tell ya how much use I get out of your program and how much I like it.

    The voice activation works flawlessly. Got it set just right so people hear me talk but not eat :) And I’ve had no problems with the admin functions.

    My feature request now is for a cooler Connect to Server window

    Thanks!
    Shannon!lol!

  9. Kanfo Says:

    Yes TeapSpeex is indeed turning into a great app and the speed of ading new features is amazing.
    One thing im missing is a sound that would let me know that someone has joined or left the chanle. Or maybe a window that would pop up in the corner of the screen and showed the name of the person that just joined. Now that would be realy cool! 8)

    Keep up the great work.

  10. Jeff Piper Says:

    Great work. I’ll get you another mirror up shortly.

  11. SleePy Says:

    Jeff: I believe the new TeamSpeex open beta2 is both for Tiger and Panther (min 10.3.9) users. The non unicode version is no longer needed.

    //Rob

  14. Sbarello Says:

    Savvy U R my heroooooooooooo !! :yawn:

  15. Jeff Piper Says:

    Hey Rob. Yeah, I just kept the old ones online in case anyone wants to rollback. BTW, the feedback we’re getting from our Mac client base is amazing. Everyone is extremely pleased with the work being done on TeamSpeex!

  16. boolean Says:

    Awesome stuff. The voice activation works very well. The server admin controls work great. It’s a full package.

    I would like to add my request for Growl and/or voice notices when a user connects to channel.

    you da man, savvy! 8)

  17. PInKsnIpeR Says:

    um. . . to get into a server you must be registered but how do u do that???

  18. Jeff Piper Says:

    Pink,

    To get into a server you must be registered OR have the server password if the owner has one enabled. Regardless, the information is needed from the owner/admin.

  19. drherdman Says:

    Here is another mirror direct download from mem thx for the mac accessory http://www.chaossoldiers.com/TeamSpeex-1.0beta2.dmg

  20. Lozer Says:

    For the next version, try to implement sound files to be played when people leave/join the server/channel. Or a sound when you mute/unmute mic, etc etc. Or, “now in the “…” channel” when you switch.

    So far, I’m more than satisfied! Thank you :D

  21. marcus Daniel Says:

    you rock! KEEP IT UP! a real Mac os x app, following the UI rules as it should and soon to surpass the pc client in effectivity and usability (already easier to use).
    GO GO GO :D

  22. sss4r Says:

    feature request: ability to display channel descriptions (the only way i know how to do it now is to edit the channel)

    thanks

  23. Porce Says:

    When will there be a record feature?

  24. Porce Says:

    Crap. This app doesn’t support the iMic.

    Guess I’ll have to go back to the PC.

  25. SleePy Says:

    Porce. mine supports iMic… It must be your computer then. and from what i think Savvy said. that teamspeex would use any mic/speakers that your mac would recognize in system sound settings

  26. Porce Says:

    It might be my iMic, actually. Audacity doesn’t recognize it either.

    Even when it’s set as the default for sound input, only QuickTime Pro recognizes it. Oh well. :sad:

    The second beta is a great improvement, btw. I’m glad I’m able to use Teamspeak again (I switched to Mac back in July, and thought I’d never be able to use it again). Good app other than lack of record.

  28. Simon, "Civic" Says:

    Why do you need a record feature? The PC version doesn’t even have it, it’s totally unnecessary for an audiochat application.

  29. Porce Says:

    Actually, the PC version of TeamSpeak does have a record feature.

  30. Stefano Rota Says:

    Hmmm,

    Why cant I make a External MIC work on my Emac!!! I put AUDIO LINE IN, connect it and NOTHING!

    Stefano

  31. Civic Says:

    You need an “iMic” to be able to use a “LINE IN” (analog) mic/headset on a Mac. :up:

    Teamspeex (Teamspeak) für OS X

    jaja, das alte leid. beim world of warcraft zocken will die raid-gruppe mal wieder über teamspeak kommunizieren. ich habe bereits aufgegeben jedesmal und immer wieder meine mitspieler zu erklären, dass ich kein teamspeak nutzen kann.

  33. Blake Says:

    Thank you SO MUCH for your effort in writing this!!! I will definately be donating some money as a thank-you once my paycheck comes in.

    Did you have to reverse engineer the Teamspeak protocol, or did their developers cooperate with you?

  34. Matze Says:

    Thanks you very mutch!!!!!!!!:):):-D:-D

  35. doom4 Says:

    THANKS

    ur my hero!

  36. Rice Says:

    Hi, Looks like many of you are having a great time with the teamspeak.

    But I couldn’t hear a nothing. Does anyone why we get the “unsupported Codec” error? Because that means you will automatically muted an dyou cannot hear or speak nothin.” :down:

  37. Administrator Says:

    Rice, the channel codec must be set to a Speex codec. you will need to ask a Server or Channel Admin to change the codec. Or if you have the privileges you can create your own channel with the correct codec.

  38. LonelyWalker Says:

    :-D :-D :-D Thank you very much, its amazing how quickly this programme becomes better and better every day. i wish u all the best, keep goin:) good work!

  39. BlackLight Says:

    I can’t , install teamspeex , because , I can not handel .dmg files . It whould be mutch better if an exe install file whould be posted. Pls , if anyone could help me , or tell me where I can get an exe version. I really need the program , so pls help me. Thanks.

  40. Ken Says:

    Blacklight TeamSpeex is for Mac OS X only.

    You want TeamSpeak http://www.goteamspeak.com/

  41. Civic Says:

    What happened to this comments page? Kind of odd… aligned to the left. :|

    Intentional or an HTML mistake?

  42. Civic Says:

    And, as I just noticed… it only occurs when I access the comments page from the main page. After I posted a comment, it’s centered, as it should be.

    !hmm!

  43. Administrator Says:

    basaar’s trackback comment got messed up, looks it happens when a sentence is prefixed with 4 spaces.. anyway, I edited the comment, should be ok now :)

    thnx for letting me know !exclamation!

  44. Kikky Says:

    actually i have the same problem as rice but what do if no one can change the channel and i dont have priviliges to create a channel ? cant you change the way ts works with all channels ? cause a lot of pc users usually use other channels :( and as in wow everything has to go fast… http://www.savvy.nl/blog/wp-images/smilies/censored.gif

  45. Amped Says:

    @Kikky: There should be at least someone that can change the codec, especially if its your guild’s teamspeak server. Try asking your guild leader or officers, I asked mine and he changed the channel codec on the fly. It even improved the quality of the sound. !wow!

    The reason why TeamSpeex doesnt work with all channels is that it (currently?) only supports the Speex codec.

  46. emma Says:

    Wonderful job on TeamSpeex. The only issue I’ve noticed so far is that my name does not show up after I’ve logged in - I appear as “Guest1″ in the user/channel list. The same happens for the only other TeamSpeex user in my guild. Is there something we need to change server side or is there something I need to fix in my client configuration?

  47. Administrator Says:

    emma, did you specify a Nickname when connecting? even if you connect as a registered user you must specify a nickname or the server will auto assign you one like Guest1.

  48. Skyfisher Says:

    Thank you for your good work in allowing us Mac users to participate with the PC world on Team Speak. I’ve used it for several hours and it worked without problems.

    Keep up the great work!

  49. Bilingo Says:

    Please hurry up and get support for growl! That is the one thing that is missing.

  50. sss4r Says:

    I have a feature request!

    Often Teamspeex is not in the foreground but I would still like to know if I’m transmitting–could the dockbar icon somehow indicate when i’m transmitting audio?

    Just a thought.

  51. mattpatt Says:

    good job!

  52. fireglow Says:

    man, you’ve done such a great job, i love the app! keep up the good work! !yay!

  53. Andreas Says:

    GREAT! THANKS! :-D TeamSpeex is what I waited for a long time…goodbye Virtual PC with Windows and TeamSpeak ;-)

  54. OwlBoy Says:

    I would love growl support too.

    Specially for Who is talking (with an option to turn it off)

    -Owl

  55. Robin Says:

    Dude, ik vind het echt uber dat je aan dit projectje bent begonnen. Als het er niet is, dan maar gewoon zelf maken :p Zelf ben ik geen gamer, niet meer tenminste, maar volgens mij heb je er heel veel blij gemaakt met deze coole client :-D keep it up!!

  56. Jim Says:

    This is fantastic! So easy to use. You are doing a great job. :-D

    Thanks so much for all the effort!

  57. Light Briareos Says:

    Who makes this program? it sounds interesting.

  59. Tim Says:

    Well how do i MAKE A SERVER…i want to make my own 1….How do I do IT!question!!question!!question!

  60. Civic Says:

    There is no server application for Mac at this time… you can get one for Windows or Linux from GoTeamspeak.com, though.

  61. Majorpayne Says:

    whenever i hit the application icoon, it doesnt start up….help please

  62. Kanfo Says:

    So when can we expect a new version with more yummy options?

  63. aphrospice Says:

    You are a godsend. Thank you so very much.

  64. Bigf00t Says:

    OK, does anyone know how a Mac user like myself can use TeamSpeex with World of Warcraft?

  65. Civic Says:

    You need a TS server to connect to… it’s not integrated into the game.

  66. Bigf00t Says:

    ya i got that, now what?

  67. Billsy Says:

    It’s a separate application, open TS, connect to your server, hide the application, and start up WoW.

  68. Xaver Says:

    Hi
    my teamspeex for mac is shit it dont can load at my pc say the program is not right!!

  69. Civic Says:

    Your english is “shit”, too. :up:

  70. SleePy Says:

    Xaver try talking in complete sentences.
    and were are you getting pc?
    Teamspeex is for Macintosh only.. not pcs… windows.. xp… longhorn (for those who demo test it), or any of that.

  71. Kikky Says:

    worked perfect upto now (Actually it doesn´t even start the program anny more i reinstalled it du same problem) anny ideas, is this a bug or a problem with another update from apple ?

  72. Ken Says:

    You could try repairing permissions, or more specifically, make sure the Teamspeex applications permissions are CHMOD to 555, or 666.

  73. Adam Says:

    Thanks I love it!

  74. Bruno Says:

    2 words : “Great job” !
    I’m connected to a TS server 3-10 hours/day : no crash, no problems. Teamspeex is just working.

  77. Raymond shaw Says:

    TS works just fine with world of warcraft, My wife and i use it every day. Just get the information from your guilds TS admin and he can set you up. Configuration is actually very similar to the PC version, if not easier :)

  78. Joram Oudenaarde Says:

    Yay! I was waiting for someone to build a Macversion! :)
    I’m on an iMac G5 here, with Tiger installed (10.4.5), but although I can login on someone’s server without any problems, there seems to be no incoming or outgoing sound.

    I changed the soundsettings a couple of times, along with the settings from my systempreferences, and changed the “activate”button as well, but I can’t get the sound to work unfortunately. Could this be a bug perhaps?

    But thanks a million for keeping this baby in developement! :D

  79. Blink Says:

    Try the newest beta revision, you can find them in the forum.

    I think your problem is related with the channel codec though, TeamSpeex only supports the Speex codec. Check if your status icon is automatically set to muted (red) or not.

  80. Henning Says:

    Thanks for this nice Application!

    I use Teamspeex for a while and I am very happy with it.
    There is one little, but essential feature in the MAC version
    that I am missing - Key bindings and the whisper to separat channels/users feature.

    I’m no programer and I don’t know how hard
    it is to implement this in the MAC version, but it would be very great if it could be a part of a future release. ;-)

    Thanks for the great work.

  81. Tibert Says:

    Logitech ClearChat Pro USB headset mic. Mic will not work when I boot up another program besides Teamspeex so I can not play a game and have the mic work. It is clearly a software issue and LogiTech’s ‘drivers’ are built right in OS X…

    Hey. I can’t connect to the server i want to…and I’m 100 % positive that the IP and PW are the right ones. Anybody who got experience with a similar problem, and might even have a solution?
