Mic muted action/event?.. and T2S

[{XG} Acad]

First off i would just like to say what an awsome job you guys are doing with Team Speak. I have tried to use many voice chat utilities but none seem to work as well and have as much versatility as TS does. Good Work.

I only can think of 2 things that would make TS a better tool/program for me.

1. when microphone input is muted i wish some sound(action) would tell me... something like "Hey stupid your mic is muted"

ie. I really like the voice activated mic feature and it works really well the only problem is when you want to do something where others dont have to be anoyed by the noise you create. So i created a bind to mute my microphone. And it works really well, only problem is that sometimes you overhear something in a conversation and want to add in it or something of that nature and you forget that your mic is muted. I say this only because i only run TS in the background as im running a game, so i dont get the opertunity to see the Mic Muted icon.

Does this ever happen to anyone else? i tried searching the forums but i didnt see nothing like this.

Anyways my sugesting would be to add a sound notification event/action for when your mic is in mute and someone tries to use it.

Im not sure if that makes much sence but when i mute the mic with TS i can still hear my self (headset) but windows handles this differently, it totaly turns the mic input off. Would there be a way of implementing this?

2. Text to speach... i know this have been discused alot in the suggestions forums but this is the only major thing i would love to see implemented into TS. I know you guys like to have everything cross platform compatible but im sure the majority of the users are Windows, why not add MS's text to speach engine? (i know i made it sound really easy.. and im sure its more involved) but i dont think it would be that troublesom.

Like i mentioned previously i use TS in the background and really wish it would tell me WHO joined/left the channel.

All and all TS is an amazing program, keep up the good work i just wanted to mention my suggestions/support for somethings i would love to see implemented in future versions of TS

You will press it and you can talk and when you press it again you mute it. That has a sound. Push to talk has no sound but i guess you know when you push the button and when not. :rolleyes:

yes.. microphone activited and microphone muted

thats how it currently setup, i just wish it would add some musak (or add an action so that we could attach a sound for when the mic input is muted) that way you would easily know if your input is muted or if its activated.

like i said not a HUGE deal currently im always hitting the binded button to find out where im at. But if TS did played something while it was input was muted that would make this program so much better for me. i wouldnt be so paranoid.

Anyways i just though that it might a good action to add to the list and suggested it...

Hope this helps..

I agree with Acad on the mic thingy. You look like a fool when you try desperately to talk to someone and it's only you forgot to unmute the mic. But I think the sound should be a very short and not annoying one (a sort of soft beep) because you don't want a full speech to be triggered each time the mic receives some input.

Exactly!... glad to see im not alone on this one 8-)

just a little soft buzz or anything... when mic input is received i would love to see that implemented and i wouldnt think it would be that hard from a technical standpoint.
