Question / Help Streaming music while being on skype (skype not on stream)

[Lasion]

So I've tried to look through the forums (and google) but I could not find the answer.

My intent\wish is to be able to be:
a) Streaming a game
b) Streaming music to the watchers of the game
c) be on skype (not being streamed)

is there a combination of options and or settings that will allow me to do this?

At the moment I have to mute my entire stream audio output for me to be able to be on skype while playing a game and streaming. (so that people on stream cannot hear my skype call).

I don't really know how to explain it any clearer.

Is there someone who has come up with a smart sollution for this?

Stream music - Assume you want shown on the stream... you just either add it as a source from Window Capture(sub-region) or have just the text shown which on that you would need to install extra pluggins or software to display them such as AMIP - works with iTunes, Wiamp, Foobar or Follow these instruction to have Windows Media Player's text: http://obsproject.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=22&t=2560

As for not having Skype things heard on the stream, you would need a software like VAC and then you customize all the audio to virtual line inputs(as in you select all the only things you want heard on that line) and then have OBS get the audio from only through that virtual line instead of being the default desktop sounds. This would also be used for the Music audio as well. VAC thing with Skype: viewtopic.php?f=5&t=2569

VAC is about the only option, yep. There's a freeware alternative out there, but you'd need to search for one of the previous threads where this same question was asked. :)

Also, as far as streaming music goes, just a bit of a PSA if you're not specifically restricting yourself to public-domain/creative-commons/licensed music: http://www.twitch.tv/ferretbomb/c/3563108
