We are happy to announce the release of version 3.0.8 of the TeamSpeak 3 Client.
This release introduces support for DNS Service records (SRV) in addition to our existing TSDNS system. In addition, version 3.0.8 fixes more than 10 bugs and increases the functionality of several existing features. For example, it’s now possible to set a Host Banner without having to specify a remote server using our built-in file transfer capabilities.
*** IMPORTANT INFO FOR MAC USERS ***
Apple has taken some steps to protect OS X users by including a new technology called Gatekeeper to prevent unauthorised code from running on your Mac. Version 3.0.8 includes a code signature for compatibility with OS X 10.8 (Mountain Lion).
Here’s the complete changelog:
=== Client Release 3.0.8 16 Jul 2012
+ Added support for SRV records when resolving domain names.

_ts3._udp.name TTL IN SRV priority weight port target
It is also possible to add a SRV record for a TSDNS server for a domain, the format for this is:
_tsdns._tcp.name TTL IN SRV priority weight port target
The priority when resolving is:
(1) _ts3 SRV record (2) _tsdns SRV record (3) TSDNS (4) DNS
