I've been using the mumble 1.0.0 beta with project reality. At first it worked perfectly, no lag or anything. Now it's laggy as hell - I can't hear what anyone is saying and they can't hear me due to the lag. I've tried lowering the quality, I've tried tampering with the network settings and I'm stuck on what I should do.

I checked my latency to the server and I get the following: Image
I'm using 64 bit vista.

any help would be appreciated

Please note that my ping on teamspeak/ventrilo is perfectly fine, all other VOIP clients including the ingame bf2 works perfectly fine

Try disabling your firewall and antivirus and test PRMumble.
remember to turn antivirus and firewall back ON after testing.
IF that is not the solution, it's probably easiest to simply uninstall and reinstall PRMumble.

I've reinstalled it several times and disabled my firewall/av software.


Nothing seems to work :/

Do you use a Logitech G15 keyboard?

Here is how to completely uninstall PRMumble 1.0 Beta 4


PR TECH SUPPORT CAN NOT BE HELD RESPONSIBLE FOR THE FOLLOWING SUGGESTION. Altering the Windows Registry can cause Windows to cease functioning properly, causes various errors, or brick the Windows installation.

Taking a Chainsaw to ALL PRmumble entries in Windows Registry.

Uninstall the older PRMUmble 0.5 beta, uninstall PRMumble 1.0, (and uninstall any other Mumble versions installed.)
Uninstall PRMumble in Control Panel preferably.
Start command prompt and type "%appdata%" in it (without quotes) and press Enter. It should open YourUsername>AppData>Roaming directory. Then you can delete the complete Mumble(PR Edition) folder.
Then backup your registry inside RegEdit or your registry editor of choice. Directions to do this inside RegEdit: Back up the registry

Download and install CCleaner from Piriform: CCleaner - Download
Directions for the following steps from Piriform: CCleaner - Registry cleaning
ALWAYS backup your registry inside CCLeaner when prompted!!!.
then use CCleaner and get rid of registry errors related to Mumble,

Open Regedit again.
then search through your registry in RegEdit (In Menu, Edit->Find, or Ctrl-F ) Use search term: Mumble .
and delete everything (except the uninstaller entries) related to PRMumble and Mumble.

Then reinstall PRMumble.

That's what I call taking a chainsaw to a chopstick.
