TeamSpeak 3 Set-up

scyan · 12th January 2015, 11:23

Good afternoon

I had recently downloaded Team Speak 3.

I decided that this avenue for the web radio streaming may be a better option
for us to use.

As, I have noticed that Skype seems to struggle when there is alot of applications running simultaneously; for example the game, winamp, shoutcast and the group call that is in skype etc. It hangs and seems to lag...

I have spent hours trying to find the best way to set-up TS3 up.

But, between the soundboards and other various tutorials. That I have read up on.

I'm worried I use the wrong plugin / configure something incorrectly.

All i want is to use TeamSpeaker3 to broadcast live via our shoutcast

In TS3 - I want to keep the push to talk feature

:

But also have a playlist play immediately should there be no voices broadcasting or a break in speaking.

thanks so much.

Are you using an external hardware mixer?

If you already have one it might be easier. However, if you don't already have one then Virtual Audio Cable would probably cheaper. And with that you can use LiveWire's automatic settings, just let your playlist play and use Virtual Audio Cable to route the output of a separate TeamSpeak client to it.

I kinda did the same thing when I was gaming. I used Virtual Audio Cable for a pure software audio send from TeamSpeak to the Line-In plugin. Of course I had to manually change it though when I wanted to go back to my normal broadcast.

I also used Virtual Audio Cable to connect my TeamSpeak server to my Ventrilo server. I had setup a TeamSpeak client (named Ventrilo Server) which was cross connected with Virtual Audio Cable (2 virtual cables) to a Ventrilo client (named TeamSpeak Server) and everybody who liked their favorite server was happy.

Okay thank-you . I will try the Virtual Audio Cable for an immediate solution, it does makes sense that another audio cable detecting the sound coming from teamspeak must be there .. the manual change might be tricky for me. But this is the only way one learns I guess

but I'm also going to investigate in getting an external hardware mixer. Depending on how much it is.

I will more than likely have a few questions though.

Thank-you again very much.

@thinktink

I took you advice. I tried a VAC - but before buying it. I tried the trial -

That worked 100%. Which is why I bought it.

What was a bugger though is having to re-install the VAC and un-installing the trial. Surely there could have been an easier way...

Regardless, I managed to get it working. You could hear the guests broadcast on the radio in my skype call.

Only thing was that they were very soft. So my question is. How do I fix that?

Its most definitely something on my end. But I wouldnt know what?
