KoS GW Music Sever

[KoS ts server admin]

Im the Amdin of TS Knights of Shadows GW and KoS GW Music Sever. I want to be able to only have the music server play music as a secondary server so all the members of the Guild war KoS guild can acces to when they play. How can i set Ts to directly access WMP or any other audio player withouth having to have a second computer play the music and using headphone and a second mic.

Ya i did but it doesnt help much. I did all the steps but there is no music going throught ts. I ahd other ppl on the server and they didnt hear the music wich is want i want to do without having to rewire the card.

The most important step is this:

open sound mixer,
click OPTIONS>PROPERTIES>RECORDING (Tick radio button)
assign volume to record, NOT PLayback

At the mixer panel:Tick boxes for Stereo mix or what you hear

Tick stereo mix buss (Or what you hear)


You should now hear your own voice when you speak on the mic. You should also hear any music or sounds played through the computer via the headphones.

Usally that works fine.

I did everything in that step and it only works when i am speaking (must say im using push to talk) and when i did put it on the lowest whisper when the other ppl tried to talk (test server) it created a feed back loop at their end. Any how for it to work I would need a second computer to have it set on whisper and on the second server so they could listen to the music without creating a lop.

Method 1:

The loopback of voice can be avoided if a second soundcard is used.

by Brain:
Du läßt die Musik auf Soundkarte #2 spielen. Als Aufnahmequelle von Soundkarte #2 wählst du "was sie hören"/Mixer/Output oder wie auch immer sich das bei dir nennt. Beim Teamspeak-Client stellst du als Aufnahmegerät Soundkarte #2 ein und als Ausgabegerät Soundkarte #1.

I translate from Brain´s instruction:

Playback the music on Soundcard (SC) #2.
The recordsource of SC #2 is set as "what ou hear/Mixer/output"
In your TS client you set Recording device assigned to SC #2, and output device assigned to SC #1

Method 2:

Or you can make the music channel moderated, if you have AV noone else who hasn´t got that right would be able to talk.
In my opinion it´s not preferable to talk in a music channel, it´s for listenning to music and not for talking.

A second computer doesn´t prevent loopbacks, if it´s set up in the same way like your first.

That why i want to make a separate music server than the chat server. So ppl could log on both at the same time but use one for music and the other for chatting. Having a second card might be a good idea. Ill see about reinstalling my old sb 5.1. Thanks for the help keep posting ideas if you ahev some thx.

sorry for the double post. When the persone chatted on it it was only to test it.

I see.
In that case I´d prefer one server with talk and music channels.
Just make your music channels moderated, like i suggested.
But loopback depends on the client that´s joined in a channel, if he´s setup to what he hears (or so called "stereo mix"), any other one in that channel will hear an echo if they talk.

I think the best way to play music and talk without echoes is a second computer with 2 soundcards that injects the music, and your 1. computer set up as usual to talk in any channel, even in the music ch.
