I play World of Warcraft on my mac. My guilds vent only works with windows. Is there a free way for them to make it work for macs? Is there a program I can download or anything? Thanks

I have the same issue..****nning on a mini...installed everything, i can hear the game, people signing in and out, but when they talk, no sound...i don't have a headset yet but still should be able to hear them through speakers

have the server admin reconfigure the server to use the Speex codec.

VERY IMPORTANT: ALL (and I do mean ALL) windows users that connect to the server MUST download and install the vent windows BETA client as it fixes problems when using the speex codec.

what does the Speex do? i don't know much about the program yet, but guessing thats all i would have to say and they would know?

Speex is a version of CODEC (compressor/decompreesor) that allows communcation. The servers default to using the GSM codec. the server admin should know what your talking about. if not, have him read the ventrilo_srv.htm which explains it. if the server is a pro/rented then he might have to make the change thru the control-panel or he has to contact the hosting site.
