Teamspeak

Teamspeak is a voice-over-IP service. There are 2 versions currently maintained. Teamspeak3 is the older version. Teampeak5 or just short Teamspeak is the newer version that is not completely released yet. Teamspeak3 servers are also used by Teamspeak5.

Setup

Teamspeak consists of two parts: a client and a server.

Client

Teamspeak3 is available for Windows on the Teamspeak website. On most Linux distributions it can be installed with the teamspeak3 package. Teamspeak5 is available for Windows on the Teamspeak website. On most Linux distributions it can be installed with the teamspeak package.

Server

The server software can be setup via Docker with the teamspeak image. This image can setup a Teamspeak3 server.

Link Teamspeak3 to a subdomain

To link Teamspeak3 to one of your subdomains you need to add a DNS SRV-record:

type: SRV
name: ts3 (or alternative subdomain)
service: _ts3
proto: UDP
TTL: <configure to your liking>
class: IN
priority: 0
weight: 5
port: 9987 (or your teamspeak3 port)
target: ts3.<domain>.<TLD>

Usage

This section addresses various features of Teamspeak3.

Installing a Sound Pack

Sound packs can be found on the myTeamspeak website. They are often available as a .ts3_soundpack file. This file is similar to a .zip archive and can be unpacked the same way. Afterwards the folder containing the audio files (.wav files) needs to be inserted into the sound folder of teamspeak. For Teamspeak3 on Linux systems this folder can be found at /opt/teamspeak3/sound. For Teamspeak5 on Linux the folder is available at /opt/teamspeak/html/client_ui/sound. Following this the sound pack is available after the next (re-)start of teamspeak.

Setting Up a Music Bot

For Teamspeak there are various bots capable of playing music. The following is a list of bots featured in this wiki that can do this.

  • Sinusbot is a self-hosted bot for Teamspeak that can play music and sounds. It's closed-source and free of charge. It also features Discord support.

Channel Visibility

As explained by guisinho_DBR on the Teamspeak forums there is no way to hide a channel completely from view. It is however possible to set the subscription and description view power of a channel to a high value. This will permit only users with higher powers to see who is connected to the channel and view the description of a channel.
