Just a feature request, but something I've always liked from Vent is being able to mix in different audio channels for capture/recording. It was mainly used in vent to play music. I mean, I can set up a different recording channel on my PC, but then I can't use my mic anymore. If at all possible this feature would be nice. Just a way to mix in different audio channels to instead of just the standard microphone channel. It would hep alot, especially for people like me who have about lots audio channels, and don't always use the standard ones for input/output.

We'll keep this in mind for future development, thanks for your ideas. What do you think of the program so far?

I think the thing the most impresses me is the resource usage. In terms of cpu, especially when idle, it's quite literally not there, which isn't the case for vent. I have had a chance to look at the server side application obviously, so I can't really comment on that. The last thing can be good or bad depending on your perspective. It's, simpler than vent. Now, for the majority of users this might be a great thing, but for a minority of "power-users", so to say, the apparent lack of options and configurability compared to other voip applications might be a slight turn-off. (I say apparent because I have no idea whats really under the hood)
In the end though, I saw a simple, clean, low-resource, voip app with faster push-to-talk reaction and a simpler interface then vent.
One other feature I thought would be nice, an in-game overlay which displays who is talking, similar to this program for Teamspeak-http://www.teamspeakoverlay.com/
(Which, by the way, works great, and I highly recommend it to anyone who uses teamspeak, it helps so much!)
