Mumble easter egg

While connected to the server, send "Open the pod bay doors, HAL." to the
root channel. (Right click the root channel and select Send Message, then
enter the stuff inside the quotes.)

I saw this in the Mumble devs IRC channel.

I'm not sure if this will work with the PR build. I'm using the standard Mumble client and server.

didn't seems to work for me

Here's what you should see. I tried to copy and paste the text from my first post but it picked up the formatting when pasting it, and that didn't work. (You can see in the chat log the initial attempt with the text formatted white-on-charcoal.) So I ended up typing the text by hand and that worked. (You'll hear the server read the "I'm sorry..." message.)

does it change the background too? Cool!

Yep, it switches it to black, and the red "eye" is an SVG graphic file. (You can download just the SVG from the Mumble source repository.

While trying to remember where I found it, I found this interesting page:

http://mumble.sourceforge.net/Skinning

Maybe someone can produce a custom TG skin!

Ah, here it is:

https://raw.github.com/mumble-voip/m.../icons/rec.svg

Download that and you should be able to load it in your web browser to see it. (It doesn't have the right "MIME type" to display directly from the Mumble web site.)
