i am wondering if there is an app out there that can allow me to access and communicate through ventrilo that runs on android 2.0
i am a gamer/raider and it would be great to be able to let my team know im running a bit late or whatever without having to boot up my laptop in the car.
i believe the code is open source (if someone is interested in building this app i can find the link again) im just surprised it hasn't been done yet.
This would be one sweet app. I hope a programmer sees this app. Heck I might teach myself the API and what not just to make this, I need to learn to code somewhere.
Device(s): Samsung Vibrant running something different

I second this. I too get in these types of situations where I am late for a fortress siege (I play aion). It would be way cool to have a vent app then id really have some bragging rights about how much android powered devices can do lol
I would love to have vent for when i'm running late to a Raid. I play Age of Conan and it would also just be nice to jump on to hear whats going on in my Guild once in a while.

I'd like to see the link if you can find it.
Ventrilo isn't under any open source license that I can find. So unless the developer(s) decide that they want to put a client out for Android you may be out of luck.
Flag said he'd take a look @ the iphone SDK in 2008, yet I'm not seeing anything beyond that.
there's a program called mangler that's open source, and designed for linux systems to connect to vent servers. They are working on an android release, but they need help from more programmers. if you are a programmer, please help out with this project!

Also, there is an app that they've made called mumbler, which allows you to host a vent server. This app is also open source, and like always, free
they have an IRC channel as well, to speak with their developers. it's:
irc.freenode.net
join #mangler
hopefully someone here has the motivation to help! this would be awesome to have!
Apparently, all they need is a GUI developer to connect the back end (library already built). Unfortunate no one has picked up on it. I would, but I am a C# developer with limited experience in Java (there would be a learning curve involved).
ok awesomeness. First of all i will definitely donate get a pay pal link up. Second, i dont know how hard it would be, but is there anyway add the push to talk feature when your in one of the server channels, or even adjust the gui so you know when other people are talking. I know this is an alpha but just a couple of idea.
