Question / Help Please Help Me With The Nightbot AutoDJ Audio

[Blacklight318]

I stream my gameplay via Hauppauge HD PVR 2 Gaming Edition Plus which by default has about a 2000 millisecond delay. I've added an off set delay for my mic/camera so all of the audio is in sync. However, when I run the autoDJ the music isn't delayed. Is there anyway that I can add a delay to the nightbot autoDJ so that it matches the rest of my audio for the viewers. Sometimes I unintentionally sing along and I look a little crazy because my voice is far behind the song lol. I heard that I could try using OBS's audio source plugin but I'm not sure if thats what I need because the audio from the Nightbot AutoDJ comes directly from YouTube and I wouldn't know how to even get just that audio on its own source by itself. If anyone can help me with this problem I'd be truely greatful :)

You may just need to use the overall System Audio Delay in the settings menu. But yeah, it's a bit of a problem. I believe you can also use VAC or VB-Cable to redirect the browser audio to a virtual device, then use the DirectInput plugin to pull from that (and set up the delay).

Also, just as a heads-up, no matter if the music is coming from your local drive, Spotify, Pandora, Grooveshark, YouTube or any other online service, playing copyrighted music on your stream without a (specific) rebroadcasting license/agreement is illegal. Copyright infringement. Rumor has it that Twitch is moving to start to cracking down on the practice.
Food for thought.

FerretBomb, do you have any info on the copyrighted music side of things? I totally understand why they are doing it, its pretty much the same as YT?

As I'd said, it's just rumor at the moment, nothing official just yet. But I'd expect that since a stream isn't a video that can be taken down individually, that 'copyright-violation strikes' would count against the channel itself. The ToS does have a section that deals with repeat-infringement, though it's aimed toward DMCA takedowns (most likely for pre-release streamers).

Search for 'repeat infringer policy', and read. As I read that section, it's a three-strikes setup, ending with a permaban on the third strike. No idea if this has any bearing on what I've been hearing.
