Enhanced [Discord] Enabled voice connection checks again. If the bot is nomore connected to a voice server endpoint (but still sits visually in a voice channel) but the data endpoint broke, its now performing a reconnect.

TS3MusicBot version 4.7.4.4 + 4.7.4.4a (17.09.2021):

New [Commands] Added new command !stream as a synonym for !url / !link / !youtube / !yt / !play.
New [Discord] Added ARM support discord mode. So the bot will now run on ARM based system like Raspberry Pis. The bot will always run in not-portable mode. So make sure to install all missing packages the bot reports.
New [Youtube] Added new chat command "!ytp TEXT" / "!ytplay TEXT" / "!youtubeplay TEXT" which search for the first video result on youtube for TEXT and directly plays it.
Fixed [Radio Streams] Radio audio data stream url direct playback support did not work, which now got fixed. You can now play radio station data stream urls directly with the Webinterface play link field (on the right side) and with chat commands eg: !url / !play / !link / !stream / !yt / !youtube http(s)://radiostreamurl
Fixed [Playback] Fixed a bug for !next/!previous/!prev/!ytgoto NUMBER and Webinterface player previous and next buttons… where it could happen to skip 2 songs instead of 1. The idle/song end detection got triggered sometimes and performed a skip additional to the manual skip command. Now the automatic skip pauses for about 10 seconds after a manual skip was performed to prevent double skips.
Fixed [Playback] Fixed a youTube playback player freeze problem (which appeared mainly on discord mode).
Fixed [Webinterface] Fixed an issue where the player freeze icon get displayed until a new playback started, even if the player got already restarted. In this case the freeze icon and counter should get a reset.
Fixed [Playback] Fixed a youtube playback (player freeze) issue which got caused by a "broken pipe" error. Its now more unlikely to run into this issue.
Fixed [Chat] Fixed stopped sending now playing info to chat in discord mode after playlist played 4-5 songs.
Enhanced Optimized discords now playing status reset while nothing plays. We can‘t send too many status updates to discords api. So if a song in a playlists ends, we do not send a „now playing reset“ to status anymore. One song info comes after another in a playlist. Only after 30 seconds of idle after a playback, we send the status reset to discord and the old now playing status gets removed.

Enhanced [Youtube] Updated youtube library and codes.

System files version 4.7.6.4 (08.06.2021):

Fixed [Discord] Stability improvements. On a discord voice server drop, the client and player does not restart anymore which came with previous update.

System files version 4.7.6.3 (07.06.2021):

Fixed [Discord] Fixed discord client related player and client freezes.

TS3MusicBot version 4.7.3.7 (07.06.2021):

Fixed [Youtube] Fixed player freeze in case for youtube live playback if youtube does not respond expected. In this case we skip the start of the playback and show an error (live pipe broke).

Fixed [ServerBridge] Fixed a case where ServerBridge mode started with an enabled teamspeak query which is not available for the ServerBridge mode.

New [Discord] Added support for stage channels.

TS3MusicBot version 4.7.3.4 (25.05.2021):

Fixed [TSQuery] If a query bot was connected and got restarted/reloaded on reconnect teamspeak does not free the query nickname fast enough, so it got a '2' appended on the end of the query nickname. The query now waits 5 seconds and retries as long as the previously used name gets freed. So now a previously used query nickname will come back with the same name without the 2.
Enhanced [ServerBridge] Now sending current users count to target bridge/hub on connect. This fixes the not shown bridged user counter directly after startup and reconnects.

System files version 4.7.5.5 (05.04.2021):

Fixed [WebBrowser] Changed version to latest 78.8.0esr.

System files version 4.7.5.0 + 4.7.5.1 (08.03.2021):

TS3MusicBot version 4.7.2.8 (27.02.2021):

Fixed [TS Client] Fixed and improved solution for high cpu and memory consumption on the client process connected to ts servers with animated server banners.
New [ServerBridge] If ServerBridge gets disabled and nickname is still set to "ServerBridge" automatically change it back to "MusicBot".
New [Filesystem] Now checking for NFS (network shared) folders for the music folder or inside (first level) of the music folder. If a NFS share got found, automatic musiclist refresh on file changes gets disabled. Webinterface displays a new refresh button and for the chat filelist refresh a new command "!scanmusic" or "!rescanmusic" or "!refreshmusic" got implemented. Chat responses also inform about this case if an NFS share got found. Reason behind this is, that on a network share the detection of the last changed file does not work, so we run into a case where each file listing rescanned everything each time which could be a mess on loading times with large music libraries. If a NFS share gets detected, it only scans one time at runtime, after that a manual rescan is needed to get file system changes.
Fixed [Webinterface] Protected webinterface webserver against a potential infinity loop caused by a too large request called to the webinterface which produced high cpu load and over time an out of memory java error.

System files version 4.7.4.7 (28.01.2021):

Fixed [Webinterface] Fixed a case where the player still showed something was playing but it was already ended.
New [ChatCommand] Added support for !play xxx command which will do the same as !youtube xxx or !yt xxx which will start a search for xxx on youtube.
New [LicenseSystem] License checks can now fail up to 3 times in a row until a "license expired or could not be checked" message appears. The first startup license check has to be valid on first try. After this, future license checks can fail for any reason up to 3 times without any interrupotion. This will allow us to do better server maintenance and it will be more network interruption friendly.

TeamSpeak client version 3.5.6 (24.12.2020):

System files version 4.7.4.3 (01.11.2020):

Fixed [Discord] Previous changes to fix the discord rate limit issue did not fix it. Its now fixed. Discord has changed a bunch of rate limits on their api server side without any notice, notification or documentation.... so this took a bit longer to fix because it was a try and error to find the correct solution.

System files version 4.7.4.2 (31.10.2020):

Fixed [Discord] Discord voice channel connection broke with a rate limit error. This change excludes some pevious active serverbridge checks in normal musicbot mode and also slowed discord api requests a bit more down to prevent running into the rate limit.

System files version 4.7.4.1 (29.10.2020):

Fixed [Youtube] Fixed ERROR: Unable to extract JS player URL.

TS3MusicBot version 4.7.2.5c (29.10.2020):

Fixed [Youtube] Fixed youtube playlist playback.

TS3MusicBot version 4.7.2.5b (26.10.2020):

New [Feature] With this update we bring you a brand new feature! We call it: TS3MusicBot ServerBridge. With at least two ServerBridge's running you can connect them together and let them join your favorite Teamspeak or Discord servers. The two server bridges build one complete bridge and it will transfer the voice and text data from one server to an other. Which means, if you talk to the bot on Teamspeak and let a second instance join a Discord server, users in the bot channel on discord can hear you talking from teamspeak and vice versa! Text chats also getting bridged!
New [Feature] A "two server" bridge is not enough? We introduce you: TS3MusicBot ServerBridge HUB. With one ServerBridge HUB instance (which can be enabled in settings), multiple ServerBridge instances can all connect to the ServerBridge HUB and build a larger bridged network where all bridged servers can write and talk togehter!
New [Command] Added new chat command "!userlist" or "!users" (working synonyms: !u/!ul/!lu/!user/listuser/!listusers) for the new ServerBridge mode which lists all users that are online on the bridge.
New [Webinterface] Webinterface shows a ServerBridge overview with all online users.
New [ServerBridge] Current ServerBridge user count will get displayed as a prefix on the client name.
New [ServerBridge] Current ServerBridge user count will get displayed as a user info on discord.
New [System] Added new startup argument "-force-bridge-mode": Forces ServerBridge mode, this disables the music mode.
New [System] Added new startup argument "-force-hub-mode": Forces ServerBridgeHub mode, this disables the music mode.
New [System] Added new startup argument "-force-bridge": Forces target bridge token to connect to. Eg.: '-force-bridge TOKENHERE'.
Fixed [Webinterface] Fixed mediabrowser youtube playlist searches.
Fixed [Webinterface] Fixed mediabrowser youtube search results showing wrong video duration format.
Fixed [Webinterface] Fixed webinterface -> logs copy buttons which copied the log entries without new lines.
Fixed [Radio] Fixed not working radio stations with some https/ssl issues.
Fixed [Webinterface] Fixed too large music lists won't display.
Enhanced [Clients] Added client memory leak checks. If TS3MusicBot detects a running client with a memory leak, the client will get killed and restarted.
Enhanced [TeamSpeak] Added an additional client check on initial connect if the client could connect. This fixes a state where the bot thought the client is connected but it was not.
Enhanced [TeamSpeak] Added client checks if the client is still connected.
Enhanced [Youtube] Improved youtube link handling to detect and filter special url parameters which are not needed for playback and they produced player freezes.

We will add commercial "ServerBridge only" licenses shortly. The new ServerBridge feature acts like a new product inside the TS3MusicBot. Like two products in one. Existing MusicBot licenses can be used too, but we will also provide cheap "ServerBridge only" licenses to sell it as a separate product too!

Private licenses stay the same. With a private license you can run up to 6 bots, so it will be possible to run up to 6 ServerBridge instances which form 3 "complete" bridges between two different voice servers. Or just use 2 private license instances to form one complete bridge and use the others as musicbots. Its up to you.

You can create bridges between:
• Teamspeak <-> Teamspeak
• Teamspeak <-> Discord
• Discord <-> Discord

If you configure one instance to be a "HUB", multiple bridge instances (more than two) can connect to the HUB instance to build an even larger bridge network!

TS3MusicBot version 4.7.2.2 (10.09.2020):

Fixed [Webinterface] Removed a whitespace from the webserver response header because a company like netcraft.com started to spam false positive emails because of a single whitespace in the response header. This single whitespace character in the response made them think its a different software which got flagged for malware, just because they use the same webserver backend as we do.. This change should stop the false positive email spam from them.
Enhanced [Webinterface] Stopped automatically refreshing of musiclist in one case.. if the music folder or one of the first level folders inside the music folder is mounted as NFS (network share) folder. To manually trigger the musiclist refresh for this rare case, call your bot webinterface with the url http://ip:port/refreshmusic and wait till its done - we will add a button for this in the next release.

Enhanced [Chat] To play a folder from chat command eg. "!music testfolder/" it was required to add the ending slash. This requirement got removed. It now works with "!music testfolder". Also working syntax: "!music testfolder/*" or "!music testfolder/**".
New [Chat] The commands "!music/!musicstart, !radio/!radiostart and !playlist/!playliststart/!pl" can now be used with a SEARCH_TEXT which will trigger a file search and start the playback of the first result. Eg.: "!music test" is now able to start the playback of the file "this is a test.mp3". Its not needed anymore to write the exact path/filename like "!music this is a test.mp3". So you can just type !music/!radio/!playlist [and a part of the name you remember] to start the playback.
Enhanced [Chat] Changed !search XXX and !music/!radio/!playlist XXX searches to be case insensitive for better matching.
New [Chat] Added new synonym commands for !addmusic to add music files to queue: "!qmusic XXX", "!queuemusic XXX".

New [WebBrowser] Added new startup parameter '-webbrowser-cpulimit 80'. By default webbrowser has a cpu limit of 80% set, if this limit is hit for 20 seconds in a row, the webbrowser gets automatically shutdown.

Fixed [Webinterface] Corrected cs flag to show correct one like cz.
Fixed [Webinterface] Added full support for 'x-forwarded-for' header which will be set if the bot webinterface gets accessed through a proxy server. We now log the correct ip address in commands.log and also ban the correct user ip for the spam protection.
Fixed [Webinterface] WMA icon missing in file list.
Fixed [Webinterface] Added missing youtube-cooldown downloder icon.
Fixed [Webinterface] Updated copyright to 2020.
Enhanced [Youtube] Improved youtube unblock mechanics in a case where unblock could fail. It now retries instead of printing an error.

If you are on this version, the next versions update perfectly again.

Charakters like "| / ; \" in passwords brreaks the command, so make sure if you want to use special chaaracters in the passwords, that you use the new arguments with base64 encoded passwords.
New Added new startup argument parameter "-clickableurlsskipportcheck" which force enables the clickable url feature and does not check if the webinterface port is open. Useful for docker containers where the container port is different as the inside port.

Enhanced [System] Added unique seed creation for each bot used for the webinterface login cookie creation. Added additional new startup parameter '-resetseed' which resets the unique seed on bot start. Logged in users will get logged out if the bot restarts and this flag is set. An unique seed is required if the bot runs inside a container with same ip and same port on muiltiple containers with different webinterface passwords which created a cookie session conflict.
Enhanced [Windows version] Code improvements to support latest windows version changes to speed up response times and increase stability.

TS3MusicBot version 4.6.9.2c (19.02.2019):

Enhanced [WebStream] Now closing waiting WebStream initialization after 10 seconds if no incoming client connection got created.
Enhanced [System] Added code to clear the audio output buffer after stop, pause and playback start commands This should prevent the longer playback and reaction times in the windows version (which also causes unexpected behavior like player freezes or skipping songs in playlist/queue) times if it shouldn't play anymore.

How to connect to a discord server?

Step 1:
Visit this link to create a Discord app.
- Give your TS3MusicBot a cool name (can be changed later).
- Set an app description (you can skip this).
- Select an profile image (you can skip this, TS3MusicBot does set itself an profile image later automatically).
- Click the "Create App" button.



Step 2:
- Copy the shown Client ID.
- Click the "Create a Bot User" button and accept with YES.
- Copy the BOT Token.
- Scroll down and click the "Save Changes" button! Thats important, otherwhise your created bot is a public bot and not your own private one. It should not get listed in the public Discord BOT list.

Step 3:
Now you have to invite your BOT to your Discord server.
Use this invite link and replace "YOUR_CLIENT_ID_HERE" with your created Client ID:
https://discordapp.com/oauth2/authorize?&client_id=YOUR_CLIENT_ID_HERE&scope=bot&permissions=0
And invite your created BOT to your Discord server.


Step 4:
For teamspeak servers, we normally save "IP:PORT" as a target address.
To let the TS3MusicBot connect to a Discord server, we will save "BOT_TOKEN:CLIENT_ID" instead of the "IP:PORT".

In our example it would be:
MzE2OTQzMzQ2NTU3Nzc5OTY4.DAcoCg.0ofvZovtqSUWzgUBkkcKTBZzPzs:316943346557779968
Now you can start your TS3MusicBot normally and it will connect to your discord server!
