    Hey everyone, so i've received quite a few requests on how I made my music bot for Teamspeak, so i'm going to let everyone know how so you can all make yours, by following these simple instructions!

    1. You're going to need three things first of all.
    Virtual Audio Cable [​IMG]
    Windows Media Player / WinAMP (Personal Preference, I use Windows Media Player) [​IMG] [​IMG]
    Teamspeak 3 ( Of Course) [​IMG]

    2. You're going to need to download Virtual Audio Cable, full version link can be found here, should take you to a dropbox link, just hit download!

    3. Once you've installed Virtual Audio Cable, (VAC) you need to make sure you convert your Windows Media Player so that it plays the music through Line 1 (Virtual Audio Cable) and into your Teamspeak Bot.
    To do this, go to Windows Media Player > Organise > Options > Devices > Speakers > Line 1 (Virtual Audio Cable) [​IMG]

    4. Once that's done, Windows Media Player is set up to play music, now it's just the Teamspeak bot that need's configured.
    What I did is got an extra teamspeak key especially for my bot, and made a different identity & created a bookmark, like this. [​IMG] .
    (If you need help how to make an identity, just leave a comment and i'll help you out).

    5. Next step once you have your music bot identity is go to settings, then options - [​IMG]
    Make sure on the option for "Capture" that the capture device is set to Line 1 (Virtual Audio Cable) and that it's on "Voice Activation Detection".

    Once that's done, apply the changes and click "Ok".
    You're signed in on your music bot account, so right click on your bookmarked main account and click "open in new tab" - [​IMG]

    Once your main account and teamspeak account are both online, - [​IMG]
    head into a music channel with both of your accounts, and open up Windows Media Player and play your music, you should hear the music come out your music bot, for your main account and other players to hear, and that's it!

    If you have any questions, please feel free to forum pm me or leave a comment here.

    If you still don't understand, head to this video which explains it quite well to. I wish everyone the best of luck if you're trying to start up your music bot, happy music playing!

    You might need to install it at 32-bit instead of 64-bit

    edit; saw you got it fixed, awesome job!
