[BETA CHANNEL] TeamSpeak 3 Client 3.0.6 available

[PeterS]

The TeamSpeak client 3.0.6 beta version is available for public testing.

Please note that some of the new features require a TeamSpeak server 3.0.3 or above.

Unlike previous beta releases in the past, which were already feature-complete and offered to public shortly before release, we want to release beta clients a bit earlier in the development process in the future, so remaining issues can be resolved earlier and not just during the last week before a scheduled stable release, which often lead to delaying this planned release more than originally planned.

The changelog:

=== Client Release 3.0.6 18 Apr 2012
+ Added temporary server passwords, see contextmenu on server. Temporary
passwords are valid for a specified period of time and work in addition to
the permanent server password. The server requires a permanent passwords
set, else temporary passwords have no effect. Needs server 3.0.3 or above.
+ Plugin API updated to 16
+ Added context menu "Paste & Send" in chat line.
+ The away message is now shown beside nickname.
+ Added multiselection for "Permissions > Channel Groups > Clients", the DEL
key works too.
+ Added ban reason sorting.
+ Added line markers for each chat line. Can be disabled via chat display
context menu (default is enabled).
+ Added ability to delete other clients avatar if b_client_avatar_delete_other
is set. Requires server 3.0.3 or above.
+ Removed the confusing soundpack "None".
+ Added animated gif support for avatar and channel description. Can be
toggled in Settings->Options->Design (default is enabled).
+ Added new permission b_client_request_talker, this allows clients to
request talk power. Requires server 3.0.3 or above.
+ Added news browser, meant to point users to new features in the client.
* Added name of the user who granted talk power to the message: "Talk power
granted by X".
* Utilities (update, error_report and package_installer) are now dynamically
translatable.
* Plugin API changes: Added setPluginMenuEnabled, requestClientIDs,
onClientIDsEvent, onClientIDsFinishedEvent. Removed pluginEvent and
getAPIVersion. Removed plugin_events.h header.
* Added plugin hotkeys, see test plugin for details
* Added version string to uninstall registry entries for display in Windows
deinstall system control panel.
* Phonetic name can now be pre- defined per identiy but still be overwritten in
every bookmark.
* ts3server:// links can now be entered into the Connect dialog. Values from
this link will overwrite existing values from the dialog.
* Collected URLs are now saved in binary file instead of ini, much faster.
* Display server/channel group icons in group list of permissions window.
* All clients list can now also be searched by client unique identifier.

the key list and also then, all created keys will be shown until the dialog
has been closed or list has been reloaded.

ban a dialog will show if the ban could be inserted.

having '%F6' instead of 'ö' in filename.

logs to start clean or you might feel some strange delay.
- Fixed bookmarks manager reporting unsaved changes.

- Removed some repetitive settings from options dialog which are also
accessible via contextmenus in the client mainwindow.
- Adjusted client for anti-flood settings fix for server version 3.0.3.

identical sortID everywhere in the client.

Create a file called "new textdocument.txt" and then replace ".txt" with ".ini".

A new version will be released in about an hour. The changelog from post #1 has been updated.

The main changes are some problems with 3D mode on with stereo headsets and some elements got removed.

3.0.6 (04.04.2012) throws errors at me when attempting to play some custom soundpack sounds wich worked fine in previous versions.

05.04.2012 11:44:33 GenericPlayback Error WavePlayData::initCallback recieved error 2316

BTW, it's spelled 'received'

[dante696]

Can you show us the sound pack u use? i have 2 custom packs and they work at this moment.
The pack worked with client 3.0.5?

Note: some holidays follow tomorrow, please do not bump this thread, when we do not answer from friday + weekend + monday

[Failure]

As I previously stated,
the soundpack was working fine with all versions prior to (04.04.2012 13:13:12), that also includes previous 3.0.6 betas.
I haven't changed anything soundpack related in the past few months.
I don't have permission to post an attachment in this thread and since I created the soundpack myself, it is not available for download.
However, one of the offending wav files throwing error 2316 at me is taken from the original soundpack shipped with the first public beta version of TS3 from 19.12.2009: chat_message_outbound.wav
Funny thing is that chat_message_inbound.wav - taken from the same original TS3 soundpack from 2009 - plays fine.
I am sure you TS guys got the sounds of the original soundpack from 2009 somewhere on your drives.

Found a problem with the volume control plugin in 3.0.6 4/4/2012 on Windows XP. Using Winamp for media playback, but volume is only decreasing for a split second. If while talking I attempt to manually reduce the volume it is bouncing back to the previous volume while dragging, if I release the volume slider in Winamp it will often return to the previous volume. If I disable the volume control plugin in TS3 the slider in Winamp works normally.


OS: Windows XP Pro
Client: TeamSpeak 3.0.6 (4/4/2012 07:13:12)
Mediaplayer: Winamp 5.623 (x86) - Dec 9 2011

Delay to return to normal volume is set to 5 seconds.
