Anyone every use this voice com software with GPL? Tried Google and see where
some tried Roger Wilco with GPL a while back with mixed results. Would like to
use it or something like it for a league if it's reasonably easy to setup and use.

Voice chat software for Grand Prix Legends leagues
Ken MacKay asked whether TeamSpeak works with GPL for league racing. Replies said it had worked well in RASCAR races and that GPL is light on bandwidth, while others recommended Ventrilo for sound quality and reliability or reported success with Roger Wilco. Uwe Schuerkamp preferred TeamSpeak for its Linux client.
Automated summary.

Didn't some of the Rascar guys use Teamspeak during the last(nr 2003)
race? Provided you have the bandwidth to spare and hopefully have a 3rd
party computer to host the TS session, it should not degrade GPL much at
all since GPL is very good about conserving bandwidth.

The RASCAR posts from the last race got me thinking about it. We have a couple
people on dialup so would probably have to use the low bandwidth codecs. Was
hoping to be able to run the server from a 2nd box on my lan, gpl server is
remote, so my cable modem would just have to handle the TS server and one gpl
client (plus possibly my TS client?). Cable gives about 256Kb/s up most of the
time, hopefully this will be enough.
Was just wondering if there were any specific experience with TS, dialup, and GPL.

of time or when someone else would join when the server was behind a
software firewall. We went to ventrilo and the sound quality and relieablity
is good so if you are going to try something, I would recommend trying that
program instead ...

Yes, some of us have been using TS for the last seven races since things,
uh, changed. :-) Works great. More of the drivers are using it with each
race.

No problems at all.

On my three computer LAN I have gone from TeamSound to Teamspeak and
just within the last week to Ventrilo ( www.ventrilo.com ). I'd put
TeamSound last, Teamspeak 2nd and Ventrilo definitely first. The sound
quality of Ventrilo was head and shoulders above the other two.
This is on a LAN with pretty much unlimited bandwidth though. Not sure
how Ventrilo would work over the 'net.

The big plus for me is that TeamSpeak has both a Linux server and
client available. Does Ventrilo offer a Linux client?

Useful, except that Uwe asked about a Linux client, which looking at
the page, there isn't one.

Thanks for the info, too bad there isn't a Linux client though 8-(
TeamSpeak it'll have to be for now.
