Mumble - A voicechat utility for gamers
=======================================
> *http://mumble.info/*
> *#mumble on freenode*
Mumble is a voicechat program for gamers written on top of Qt and Opus.
There are two modules in Mumble; the client (mumble) and the server
(murmur). The client works on Win32/64, Linux and Mac OS X, while the
server should work on anything Qt can be installed on.
Note that when we say Win32, we mean Windows XP or newer.
## Running Mumble
On Windows, after installation, you should have a new Mumble folder in your
Start Menu, from which you can start Mumble.
On Mac OS X, to install Mumble, drag the application from the downloaded
disk image into your `/Applications` folder.
Once Mumble is launched, you need a server to connect to. Either create your
own or join a friend's.
## Running Murmur on Unix-like systems
Murmur should be run from the command line, so start a shell (command prompt)
and go to wherever you installed Mumble. Run murmur as
```
murmurd [-supw <password>] [-ini <inifile>] [-fg] [v]
-supw Set new password for the user SuperUser, which is hardcoded to
bypass ACLs. Keep this password safe. Until you set a password,
the SuperUser is disabled. If you use this option, murmur will
set the password in the database and then exit.
-ini Use a inifile other than murmur.ini, use this to run several instances
of murmur from the same directory. Make sure each instance is using
a separate database.
-fg Run in the foreground, logging to standard output.
-v More verbose logging.
```
## Running Murmur on Mac OS X
Murmur is distributed seperately from the Mumble client on Mac OS X.
It is called Static OS X Server and can be downloaded from the main webpage.
Once downloaded it can be run in the same way as on any other Unix-like system.
For more information please see the 'Running Murmur on Unix-like systems' above.
## Running Murmur on Win32
Doubleclick the Murmur icon to start murmur. There will be a small icon on your
taskbar from which you can view the log.
To set the superuser password, run murmur with the parameters `-supw <password>`.
## Bandwidth usage
Mumble will use 10-40 kbit/s outgoing, and the same incoming for each user.
So if there are 10 other users on the server with you, your incoming
bandwidth requirement will be 100-400 kbit/s if they all talk at the same time.
