Is it possible?

For a LAN, we would like to use Shoutcast to comment Counter-Strike games and I'd like to know if it's possible. The problem is that we want our listeners to hear the comments with the microphone but also the sound of the game. Is it possible?

Shoutcast, unfortunately, is not real time, so they would recieve the message a lot later than you would want for CS.

Most of the CS players I know (including me) use Ventrilo.. It's an amazing program and rather easy. Someone will have to host the Ventrilo server.. feel free to PM me if you need help on setting that up.

Hehe you don't understand me... I don't want to use shoutcast to communicate with the players, I want to use shoutcast to comment the important games for the ones who are not playing, people who are not at the lan for example...

Is it clear now?

Ohh.. like a gamer's radio.. As in giving a play by play of the game in progress?

Exactly! But we would like to have the commentator's voice AND the game's sound.

Yes, that can definitely be done. All you have to do is download the server and the DJ Tool and set it up so that it broadcasts all that's on the soundcard.
