Win 7 Teamspeak push to talk

PhiR · 02-08-2010, 12:42 PM

I've been using teamspeak without any issues for some time now, using push to talk rather than voice activation. But since the new version it stopped working. I couldn't talk in TS while ingame, while it worked perfectly when i was on the desktop.

I first thought it was a device conflict of some sort, but I realized that using voice activation worked. The problem was with the keyboard input. So apparently PR 0.9 does something differently and whenever I'm ingame, TS cannot detect the push to talk key. I tried binding to a mouse button but ran into the same issue.

I use TS mainly to coordinate with other clanmembers when I'm not in the same squad, so voice activation is not an option for me because it would cause too much pollution. If anyone has encountered this issue and knows how to fix it I'd be glad to hear about it!

I use it with my #pad just fine in 9. Have mumble set using the # keypad as well. No problems.

Hey i solved my issue at last. For the record, if you have PR "running as an admistrator" under windows 7, you have to enable the same option for teamspeak otherwise teamspeak will not get the permission to access the keyboard when you're playing...
