Teamspeak

[Gareth Hickling]

Just buy the same Gareth...but i got a problem. I 'm forced to go under the desk every time i don't want to use it ...so i just use a Logitech USB that was for a PS2 game, and it works well.

Do you have front panel with all the connections ?

No unfortunatly not!, So yes i have to crawl under my desk everytime i want to use them instead of my 5.1

this is why you should have your pc on your desk like i do - its just a simple walk...

TeamSpeak - Other users unable to hear me

When I'm connected to the TeamSpeak server and talk into the microphone people cannot hear me. I can hear them just fine.

I used the Windows Control Panel to test the microphone function and it appears to work fine as I can hear in the headphones what I'm saying into the microphone.

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Thanks...

in TS,
go to settings > sound input/output settings & check there if voice activation is checked

that should help

 

[Warren Dawes]

There is also a test section in the TeamSpeak software too. Did you test it there to see if you can hear yourself ?

 

[Steve Emmons]

Good idea, but it was already checked.

 

[Steve Emmons]

I did try the test section before, but this time noticed that the activation level sensitivity slider was far to the right. Moved it to the left, i.e. increased its sensitivity, and can now hear myself. Where do you find it works best, or is it pretty specific to the user?

I downloaded TeamSpeak 2 RC2. Is that what you're using?

Thanks...

 

[Christopher Aponte]

same

& sensitivity right in the middle for me

 

[Steve Emmons]

Thanks, I'll start there now that I know what the issue is.

Sounds stupid maybe, but do you have your microphone muted maybe? It happened to me once: installed TS2 all over new and it still didnt work, was about to throw away the whole pc when i noticed that little button

 

[Steve Emmons]

LOL. Great question and not too stupid for me...

I just bought my headset --- a Sennheiser --- and am not entirely familiar yet with its charactistics. It turns out that the microphone sensitivity in TeamSpeak was set very far to the right, i.e. the "yell" or "shout" end. Default I guess... I moved the slider a bit left of center and can now hear myself in test mode.

Thanks!

Perfect, hear you soon

Hi all!

I got a microphone for my birthday and was wondering how does Teamsepak work and when can you go on etc. Help would be much appreciated.

 

[Neil Gault]

nothing much to it Ross, download it from http://www.goteamspeak.com/
Use the link on the front page to connect to the server or enter the details manually like the image below.
No need to worry about codecs or such as all these are preset on the server, you can have a few shortcut keys saved within your keyfile for things like channel switch, mute and so on (like the one attached).

I know some guys find it distracting during a race so myself i tend not to use it during the race apart from when i need to say sorry so i have mine set for push to talk using one of the buttons on my wheel, this way no chance of any background noise annoying anyone else.

Hope this helps you.

 

[Ross Balfour]

Thanks for the info Neil! Ill be on it now

Ok tried that and it came up the server is offline??

Here is what I am typing in:

 

[Neil Gault]

ok you are using the wrong server ip address the up to date one is listed here http://forum.racedepartment.com/pre...7-important-racing-club-servers-password.html

also put in the port number 8767 after the address and tick the box allow server to assign a nickname

 

[Ross Balfour]

Ok did that and it now says Socket Error??

 

[Lee Downham]

Type the IP address then :8687 for the port number (the colon is used to specify the port number)

eg. 100.100.100.100:8687

I use the Steelsound. Good sound and better comfortable. I use this headphone on lan-parties for 15 hours non-stop gaming.. Never feels strange or does not irritate. Great device!
