Audio from two different sources

[shitsux]

So, here's my problem. I'm trying to stream both from my game console and have a voice-over with my microphone for commentary and such. I'd like to do this live, but I can't seem to get both audio sources going at the same time, I can just flip back and forth between the sources. Is there any way to combine these feeds? I'm using FME and an EasyCap card.

I also thought of trying to mix the live feeds and turn both into a single source that FME can select as the audio, but I can't find a program that will let me do that.

The biggest problem, probably, is that my microphone is built into my computer, so I can't just plug the microphone and audio into a physical mixer and do it that way.

Can anyone help?

You might want to try a program called "Virtual Audio Cable" or VAC, there's a free version available.
[EDIT] There is also a trial version available for it, so you can at least test it before you buy it. [/EDIT]

I belive you can set it up so that whatever is spoken into your microphone can be output to your speakers. Probably not an IDEAL solution... but it would allow you to talk, and have that streamed as well as your games.

There are also sound mixing applications that can do this, but I'm not very familiar with these at all.

I tried this program, but I still can't get it to work. Anyone else have any ideas on how to do this?

Yeah, it's just making it echo but they can hear it. Not what I want though.

Its easy, you just need to set up 1 cable, and then use the repeater program.

Set your mic to input, and set the output to cable 1

open a SECOND repeater

set capture sound to input, and output to cable 1


in procaster/FME/etc use the sound as cable 1


you can use as many cables as your computer can handle

I've tried VAC. Unfortunately during testing it seems to cause the sound (including the game's sound) to lag behind the visuals by about half a second, even when the repeater(s)' CPU priority is raised to the max. So it sort of works, but produces a different problem in the process.

The Realtek HD Audio Manager for the old XP systems worked without a hitch integrating sound and microphone for broadcasting.

So...what the HELL was changed with Vista that disabled it?

I'm sick of these idiots complicating things for a majority of the population.

I don't get any noticeable lag between audio and video. I don't know why you would be getting any though.
