The #hydrogenaudio channel (chatroom) moved to the server "irc.freenode.net".

To chat in the new channel, click the "Chat" link on the navbar or download an IRC client such as mIRC and add the IRC server "irc.freenode.net" (don't include the ""), port 6667. Then type /join #hydrogenaudio and you're ready to chat with us.

It's worth mentioning, for anyone interested, that #foobar2000 also moved to the same network (freenode)

While I like freenode. IMHO, I think it would benefit us all if I officially invite both the HA and the foobar IRC channels to the CoreCodec IRC Server. I am sure that both Blacksun and Christian would agree. What do you all think? JohnV, rjamorim? LMK

Well.. it's the same to me, but seems that Peter (the foobar dev) wasn't so enthusiastic after checking the corecodec server for some reason (not related to stability, but the way services work,use of email and channel description and such), and wanted to move #foobar2000 to freenode. And since it will not happen that #hydrogenaudio and #foobar2000 remain in different servers, we are both now at freenode.

JohnV... no problem... but I really believe that a community focus is most important... and to have freenode while 'good' does not really facilitate focus like what is offered.

The offer still stands for the future...

I can't see any Chat-link in my navbar. Where is it supposed to be?

Hydrogenaudio IRC-channel

It's been out of order for 2 years or so, which is exactly how old the posts you are replying to are.

So #hydrogenaudio on irc.freenode.net don't work?

The chat works. The link in the navbar (which used to fire up some Java IRC client) not.

I registered my nick there a while back (lextune ) and after a reformat I lost the app data in my client (which was remembering the password)

So.....Anybody know of a way I can retrieve, or reset my nick password?

Great. Didn't know there was an IRC channel on Freenode I like the Freenode network!
