Mumble Tutorial - The address is mumble.brbuninstalling.com and the port is 7454.
Mumble is the voice communication software of choice for BRB,U.
Why? Because it's the only cool, open source and free VoIP program of it's kind. TeamSpeak and Ventrillo, you must rent from a provider that pays licensing fees and crap. We can throw a daemon on a server and provide it for free.
However it doesn't always work the first time for everyone, so here's a guide.
You want to download the newest version from http://mumble.sourceforge.net/
As of writing, this is version 1.2.3. It will change, and Mumble automatically updates.
After you have downloaded Mumble, install.
It's the standard Next, Agree, Next, Next, Install, Finish affair.
Now launch Mumble!
The first window will be the Introduction. Click next.
You will now see the device selection dialog. The defaults here should work. If you talk into your mic, you should hear yourself in your speakers.
If you do not, try alternate devices from the menus. There should be an obvious choice like 'Microphone' for input and 'Speakers' for output.
You should uncheck 'Positional Audio' and 'Attenuate applications while other users talk' is optional.
Click Next.
In the device tuning dialog, try lowering the slider all the way to the left. If the voice starts to jitter, slide back to the right a bit.
Click next when you are ready.
In the volume tuning window, defaults should be good because we will NOT be using voice activation.
Click Next.
This dialog is very important. Here you must select 'Push To Talk' and then click in the box to the left.
The next key or button you press is what will transmit your voice.
Click Next when ready.
The defaults for the Quality and Notifications should be sufficient.
Click Next.
Final screen for the initial setup! Uncheck the Anonymous statistics if you want, Click Finish.
OK! You are ready to Mumble! You should still be in the Mumble Server Connect window. If not, click Connect from the Server menu.
Ignore the server browser and click Add New.
Fill out the server details. The address is mumble.brbuninstalling.com and the port is 7454.
Click OK.
Your BRBU server should show up under Favorites. Double click to connect.
If Mumble asks you about a certificate with a failed verification, click Yes.

Just press your PTT button to speak!
