Changing audio output

[Anathema30]

What's your question?

Hi. I've been trying to change the audio output for cactbot stuff as it constantly broadcast through my microphone input and since there's 0 option anywhere to change that, i'm asking if there's a special method. I tried SlimDX and Win10 sound option and neither work. I use Virtual Audio cable to create audio lines as i'm using a TTS program but cactbot send audio directly through it.

All audio for cactbot should use your default audio output device, i.e. what you have selected in the Windows Sound control panel:

For clarification, there are two types of audio for cactbot.

1. Sound-based alerts and sound files, e.g. the ready check Game On audio a. Plays through CEF, should show up as CefSharp.BrowserSubprocess in the Windows volume mixer:
2. TTS, if you have it enabled a. Plays through the ACT process.

There is no in-application location to change the output audio device. I'm not sure if there's a Windows-level way to change the default audio output device per process.

You could technically write an ACT plugin to override the TTS method and redirect that audio to a specific audio device, but that would not change the audio output device of cactbot's sound-based alerts and sound files.

Ok thanks for the info. Manage to sort it out, kinda-ish, now that i know the sound is from CefSHarp it make it a tad easier to isolate and sort it out just through my virtual cable. Writing a plugin would be a bit of a stretch for me.
