TeamSpeex

The last revision had a small endian bug that caused some nasty sound input/output on Intel Macs, running it under Rosetta worked fine though.

I made a small adjustment to the audio code and Andreas Ley confirmed that it now works natively on his iMac Intel Core Duo 2Ghz with 2GB Ram running Mac OS X 10.4.4 (thanks for testing Andreas!). Here is what he had to say:

Works perfectly! And it’s quite a lot faster than under Rosetta. The native Version peaks at 4.7% CPU usage (out of 200%) when talking and listening while running it under Rosetta peaked at about 20%.

Thanks a lot!

So if you want to run TeamSpeex natively on your brand spankin’ new Intel Mac (lucky you), grab the updated Universal Binary from here:

TeamSpeex-1.0beta-r406.dmg

You may have wondered why you couldn’t reach this site the couple few days.

The reason was that due a Denial of Service attack the server didn’t come back online again, it actually didn’t boot into Linux anymore So the server underwent a complete new distro install, which is up and running perfectly now. It should feel a little “snappier” as well because the server got a small hardware upgrade too

If you haven’t got any email replies from me the couple of days, it was because of this unfortunate incident. I will try to catch-up with replying.
