Mumble - A voice chat utility for gamers
|

|
|
Mumble is a voicechat program for gamers written on top of Qt and Opus.
|
|
|
|
There are two modules in Mumble; the client (mumble) and the server
|
|
(murmur). The client works on Win32/64, Linux and Mac OS X, while the
|
|
server should work on anything Qt can be installed on.
|
|
|
|
Note that when we say Win32, we mean Windows XP or newer.
|
|
|
|
## Running Mumble
|
|
|
|
On Windows, after installation, you should have a new Mumble folder in your
|
|
Start Menu, from which you can start Mumble.
|
|
|
|
On Mac OS X, to install Mumble, drag the application from the downloaded
|
|
disk image into your `/Applications` folder.
|
|
|
|
Once Mumble is launched, you need a server to connect to. Either create your
|
|
own or join a friend's.
|
|
|
|
## Running Murmur on Unix-like systems
|
|
|
|
Murmur should be run from the command line, so start a shell (command prompt)
|
|
and go to wherever you installed Mumble. Run murmur as
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
murmurd [-supw <password>] [-ini <inifile>] [-fg] [v]
|
|
|
|
-supw Set a new password for the user SuperUser, which is hardcoded to
|
|
bypass ACLs. Keep this password safe. Until you set a password,
|
|
the SuperUser is disabled. If you use this option, murmur will
|
|
set the password in the database and then exit.
|
|
|
|
-ini Use an inifile other than murmur.ini, use this to run several instances
|
|
of murmur from the same directory. Make sure each instance is using
|
|
a separate database.
|
|
|
|
-fg Run in the foreground, logging to standard output.
|
|
|
|
-v More verbose logging.
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Running Murmur on Mac OS X
|
|
|
|
Murmur is distributed separately from the Mumble client on Mac OS X.
|
|
It is called Static OS X Server and can be downloaded from the main webpage.
|
|
|
|
Once downloaded it can be run in the same way as on any other Unix-like system.
|
|
For more information please see the 'Running Murmur on Unix-like systems' above.
|
|
|
|
## Running Murmur on Win32
|
|
|
|
Doubleclick the Murmur icon to start murmur. There will be a small icon on your
|
|
taskbar from which you can view the log.
|
|
|
|
To set the superuser password, run murmur with the parameters `-supw <password>`.
|
|
|
|
## Bandwidth usage
|
|
|
|
Mumble will use 10-40 kbit/s outgoing, and the same incoming for each user.
|
|
So if there are 10 other users on the server with you, your incoming
|
|
bandwidth requirement will be 100-400 kbit/s if they all talk at the same time.
