Question / Help OBS wont pick up Game (WoW) or Music Sound

Synax · Jan 2, 2014

Hello, having problems with OBS, I stream WoW the game with a webcam etc, now the problem is OBS will not detect the game sound or VLC Media player. WoW, Teamspeak/Skype and VLC are all output to my Headset but OBS will only broardcast Skype or TS3. Log and screenshot attached.

I know in the log it says Speaker, I plug my headset into that "speaker" port. Its a sound card in my PC. Not even when I use on board Realtek sound it still wont work.

I also tried to use DirectShow Audio Source plugin but still no luck.

Ty for your time, any suggestions / support appropriated.

Edit, tried OBS with Heroes of Newhearth and it works great, tried with Heartstone another blizzard game and fails to play game sound. Tried FF7 on steam and again no game sound. So confused T.T

Edit, fixed this problem below by deleting the wow Scene and making a new one.

More to add, felt like a re install of OBS might help. Now it crashes all the time, it will load up but when I try preview the stream or start broadcasting it crashes.

"Whoops! OBS has crashed. Would you like to view a crash report?"

Code:

no help?

You have a xonar, and if xonar isn't capturing correctly, you need to disable it's GX (or XG?) mode in the xonar settings.

Hi Jim, Thanks for getting back to me.

I managed to solve this literally just before your reply, I worked out that OBS would capture WoW if I used motherboard sounds. But I really wanted to used my sound card, anyway what I did was tell wow to play sound through the mobo sound realtek, then used a audio cable to plug that sound out into the mobo mic in. Then listened to that device though the sound card. Crazy I know. Then after I had this working I went back and tried to just capture the sound card and it worked fine. So i have no clue what fixed it.

I went back into my sound card and played with the GX settings that you mentioned and I couldn't get it to not work so I still have no clue how I fixed it... Screen shot attached of my Xonar settings.
