    Ever noticed how sadly Snip by dlrudie doesn't support Winamp, FooBar2000, or even VLC Media Player? What if you wanted to use these media players instead? Well this is where Snap comes into play.Inspired by Snip (but doesn't use any source-code from them!) we created a program to do just...

    Winamp AVS plugin for OBS on Mac

    I've always been interested in motion graphics. I got my start playing around with the AVS system on the old Winamp 2 and the early versions of Winamp 5. I've since learned how to use After Effects, and can render videos with motion graphics.However, I'd like to start streaming on Twitch, and...

Winamp ObsHi, I will note I have already done some searching here, so apologies if I have missed something. I'm sure this may have been asked in different ways, so apologies!
  1. Updated Video 2020: wanted to know how some streamers have their current music playing shown on their stream?
  2. Winamp is the media player itself and the SHOUTcast DSP is the encoder to connect to your radio station online.
  3. ControlFreak is a great Winamp plugin that enables you to control Winamp and the rest of your computer with your Bluetooth Series 60 phone. It has all of the music and video controls like play, pause, stop, next, previous, fast forward, rewind and volume. ControlFreak works with all S60 1st and 2nd Edition phones.
I am hosting a weekly quiz (with a few music rounds, hence the need for audio), and stumbled across this awesome software, and it's certainly upped the production. I'm currently using OBS Studio with:

Winamp Obs Plugin


  • The Virtual Cam plugin to output video to Zoom
  • Touch Panel and WebSockets for control
  • ChromaCam for background removal
  • VB-Cable to take audio from Winamp into OBS
My audio setup is:
  • Winamp output to 'Speakers (VB-Audio Virtual Cable)'
  • OBS scene contains Audio Output Capture monitoring 'Speakers (VB-Audio Virtual Cable)'
  • Monitoring device: 'Speakers (Realtek Hi Definition Audio)'
All of this is working fine, when I monitor within OBS out my local speakers, it all works fine and sounds great. However...

Winamp Obs Software


Within OBS to get the sound to Zoom, as I understand it, I have to basically push my monitoring audio out, because OBS is meant for streaming to a service? To that end I have set:
  • Monitoring Device to 'VoiceMeeter Aux Input (2- VB-Audio Virtual Cable)'
  • Zoom microphone to 'CABLE output (VB-Audio Virtual Cable)'
I understand what's happening here, and while it 'works' it sounds terrible. As I understand it, my constraints here are:
  • Zoom is optimised to send audio as if it's from a microphone, and so music sources just will sound bad, that's the way it is
  • OBS is meant for streaming to a service, not REALLY for relaying to Zoom, so I have to sent the monitor output and not the actual capture?
I feel that the drop in quality is from Zoom, not the output itself?
So what I'm asking is:
  • Is my setup correct?
  • Can I improve the audio in any way? Perhaps using screen sharing in Zoom to monitor an output from OBS rather than passing it through as a microphone input?
  • Any suggestions for improvement?
