Hello,

I have 2 pc's for streaming and 1 monitor with a HDMI, DVI and VGA connection.
The first PC is for the gameplay which haves the game sound and the mic through the USB headset, it is connected with a dual link DVI to my monitor.
The second PC is equipped with a Avermedia Live Gamer HD. The avermedia goes with a HDMI cable to the monitor and one to the videocard on the first pc.
The problem is i want to capture the sound of the first pc to the second PC, It also need to capture the USB mic from the first PC.

I haven't found out yet how to do this. If somebody can help me please leave a comment.

Get a 3.5mm stereo audio cable and connect your first PC's audio out port to either the Live Gamer HD's Audio-in port, or the second computer's Line In port. Then, on the first computer, go into the properties of your Stereo Mix and your USB microphone, and set them to be "Listened" by your "Speakers" device (the on-board audio). Then your audio will be duplicated out the Audio port into your second PC.

I had it working when i was using windows 7 on my first pc.
But i had alot of bsod on it so i installed windows 8 on this machine but now with the same setup i had on windows 7 i can't get audio working. I can get it working that the game audio and windows audio works but then the quality of the audio is really off. Any ideas on how to fix this? Note my mic audio doesn't work now.
This is getting really frustrated because i had it working before.

What was your setup before? The method I described above should still work regardless.

Alright i got the audio quality normal now.
The setup was like you described it should be.
When i test the system playing youtube video's the audio is good but the weard thing is when somebody start to speak in the video there is no voice audio of this person..
Also still haven't got my voice and other not working.
Seems it wont capture any voices but it captures music???

This is getting weirder and weirder.
