TeamTalk v5.11 changes

TeamTalk v5.11 is currently being beta-tested for Windows, macOS and Linux (remember you can enable beta-testing in Preferences dialog).

TeamTalk v5.11 for Windows and macOS will switch to Qt 6.4 which means that minimum requirements for Windows is Windows 10 and for macOS it is 10.14.

Switching TeamTalk to use Qt 6.4 has several benefits, among those is accessibility which Corentin Bacqué-Cazenave explains here.

  1. I don’t want to put windows 10. I tried to install team talk 5.11 qt but doesn’t run in my windows 7. I’d like always to use team talk in windows 7. Alessio from Italy.

  2. please create an other 5.10 for example 5.10.1 for windows 7 because i don’t want to put windows 10. Put the following features: 1. a possibility to create or modify channels only for creators of channels. 2. a possibility to join in invisible mode: create a invisible state for join in invisible in a server. 3. add a mode listen only for people that can’t speak or don’t want to speak In 5.10.2 put a possibility also for users to intercept people in an other channel, a possibility to transmit media file or links in seven and a possibility to record in mp3 also in seven. Put also if you can a possibility to modify audio codecs also if a person is in a channel or is configuring a initial channel in a server. These are many requests for a team talk 5.10.1 and 5.10.2 for seven that i would like.

  3. Hi,
    I found a bug. The sound events are interupting each other instead of playing at the same time. But I also think that there should be a feature such as in the classic client, that you can decide weather the sounds play at the same time or if they play one at a time, or if they interupt previous sound.
    Also, it’s impossible to press the enter key on a combo box item, such as in the select language dialog at first start up, and also at the new profile dialog, you have to press tab and go to the okay button and then it works. Can you fix that as well?
    Also, with classroom changes, it works well, but it reports the classroom changes of a channel even if you are not in the same channel. I like this, but can you make it so that it reports the channel name of the classroom changes that were made if not in the same channel?
    Also, please find a way to bring back the user can change status mode feature.
    Thanks for reading!

  4. Hi,
    I am writing here again, this is more of a feature ruequest. When creating a temp channel, for example, on the UK encrypted server, and your the only one in the channel, and the connection is lost, when it comes back it recreates the channel with whatever bitrate you had set. This is really conveniant but we should add a setting that you can spesify default bitrate for channels that you create, for example, using the join channel optional, or make a setting set up so that any channel you create will create automaticly with spesified settings unless changed.
    I am happy that it keeps your channel active as long as your client is open, because some people use temp channels on public servers so this is good, but it would be a lot better to be able to spesify the bitrate in the connect dialog. Or have a setting in the client to have a default bitrate.
    Thanks for reading!
