Twitch VOD recording music

[just1humu]

Hello,
I want to stream with music and have it not go to Twitch VODs.
I have set: File-Settings-Output-Mode to Advanced and chose Track 2 as Twitch VOD track and checked the box.

I then right clicked on my playlist (playing a looping mp3) in the Audio Mixer, chose Advanced Audio Properties and unchecked track 2.

This still puts the output in the VOD.
The last log file is: LOGFILE
I searched this topic and found similar, the suggestion was File-Settings-Stream - set to Twitch instead of Custom, mine is set that way.
Any help greatly appreciated, thanks!!

Post the complete advanced audio properties. The small part you posted isn't on any output, because it is set to monitor only. The audio on your stream tracks are from some other source.

Hello,
Here is the advanced audio properties.

Thanks!

Ok, the sources desktop audio, headset and mic/aux are being output to the vod track on track 2. So if there is your music on the vod on the Twitch website, one of these sources also contain your music. It's probably not your mic, so it's either Desktop Audio or what you call headset. Make sure your music neither plays to your desktop audio nor to what you call headset.
Or the other way round: don't put your desktop audio to your vod track or your headset.

Thanks! I think I'm almost there. The music no longer goes to the VOD. However, I cannot listen to it myself. Here are the current settings:

If I change Playlist to Monitor and Outputor even Monitor Only, the music goes to the VOD. Set up this way, it does output to the stream. Any suggestions to listen to the music I'm streaming but not output it to the VOD? Thanks!

If you want to listen to your music on your headset, and your headset is captured with desktop audio, you cannot capture desktop audio. If the thing you're streaming is outputting its audio to desktop audio, you might be able to capture its audio directly. Either with the audio option of game capture if it's a game or with a application audio source.

OK, another step closer I think =)
Everything is still working on the stream as expected: game, mic and music. However, I still cannot hear the music in the headset. Here are my current settings:

I tried turning up the volume and it got louder on stream but still nothing in the headset. Any advice welcome, thanks!!
