Hello! Lately I've been experiencing rather annoying but, that occurs only on TF2Center's Mumble server. Whenever I join, only thing I hear is weird, robotic sounds that are really painful. It's really weird, since I can normally hear everyone on other server.

 

I'm using Fedora 20, version of Mumble is 1.2.6

 

This doesn't help - http://www.mumble.co...orted-voice.php

Where in the world are you? Is your connection terrible? In my experience, that's where robotic voice arise, though I'm guessing there's  more to it.

Robotic voice usually has to do with how good your connection is or how much quality you wanted. Open mumble and go to configure then settings. In the settings you should see a slider for quality edit it until you stop hearing robotic voices.

I'm living in Slovakia and my connection is pretty solid, so I think so it should be a big problem.

 

Where is the server?

That sound is when your bitrate is too low. The server has sufficient resources to handle all clients connected and more. 

I'm afraid there isn't anything to do than follow the steps on the page you've linked above besides upgrading your connection.

Miro,

The mumble server is in North America.  Canada, I think.

So I bet that your connection from another continent is at issue.   There may be mumble settings you can work with.  Otherwise you may be able to get an idea where the slowdown is by the following command (assuming Windows technology:)

 

> tracert mumble.tf2center.com

 

It will show all of the connections between you and the server, and let you know if there is a slow link or otherwise if "packets are dropped."

 

This is a single-user issue, and I am not sure if it is solved.  I will call it in-progress for a day or two, then decline.  I'm pretty sure this is not a TF2C issue that can be fixed.

Try this. Open Mumble --> Configure --> Settings --> Network --> Check "Force TCP mode".

I'll give this a few days, then close.

 

Miro, your mumble connection quality has very little to do with TF2C and things that we can change.  Sorry, this is certainly not a bug.
