3 Tips To Improve Your Ventrilo Server Experience By: jerry jessmine
3 Tips to Improve Your Ventrilo Server Experience
Have you ever wondered if you're getting the most out of your Ventrilo hosting experience? With the following 3 tips, you can quickly and easily make sure your server is using high quality codecs, running in the right location and is password protected to protect against unwanted guests!
Ventrilo is widely used by gamers, who refer to it as Vent, and who use the software to communicate with other players on the same team of World of Warcraft, StarCraft 2 and all other games. Communicating by voice gives a competitive advantage by allowing players to communicate more quickly than typing messages to one another.
Tip 1: Use high quality Ventrilo voice codecs
Nothing ruins a night of gaming or a hardcore raid more than someone taking over the chat with a robotic voice or even worse, everyone sounding like they're talking underwater. Believe it or not, this is still a very common occurance for many Ventrilo server owners because they don't know any better. To quickly improve the sound quality of your entire server consider switching to the Speex voice codec at 32 KHz, 16 bit, 10 Qlty 5520 bytes/sec. Also available with providers is the GSM voice codec. Consider using 44 KHz, 16bit 8905 bytes/sec. The GSM codec offers a slight clarity increase over the Speex codec but this comes at the cost of Mac users being unable to use your server properly.
Tip 2: Choose a Ventrilo Server Location Close to You
With data centers spanning all across North America, Europe and the rest of the world, there is no reason you can't choose a Ventrilo server that is hosted close to home. Majority of Ventrilo hosting companies provide a list of demo servers which you can connect to test voice quality and ping. Your ping is an important aspect of a trouble free and reliable experience. Make sure to invite friends and members of your gaming group into the test server or give them the address of the server to ping. Your goal is to choose a location that pings best for your entire group of Ventrilo users. Dallas Texas is a very popular location among North American gamers as it provides a central location to host your server. This provides low pings and high quality voice communication for players in Canada, USA and even Europe!
Tip 3: Password protect your Ventrilo server
When renting a Ventrilo server from a licensed hosting company, part of your service fee to them includes server security. The security offered generally only covers the dedicated server (computer running your Ventrilo server) and not the Ventrilo server itself. The security of your actual server will come down to you, the server administrator. Your best line of defense against unwanted guests is a global server password. The global password allows you to quickly and easily add a layer of security to your server to ensure a fun filled night of chatting with your friends. Once enabled, all users (not registered with the server) will be required to provide a password in order to gain access to the voice chat. This is a key defense in blocking unwanted users from joining an empty channel and leeching off your groups Vent server.
