    If anyone else happens to come by this video and was also having trouble with choppy/glichy audio, try this.
    Instead of WDM for the audio duplicates, select the MME one.
    This removed all chopiness from the steamed PC audio, and also fixed an issue with RUclips failing to render/play videos while Voicemeeter was active.
    My laptop that I'm streaming audio from to my PC is even on WiFi and works great! Just try changing the A1 sources until it comes through clear!

    I'm not a streamer, but had similar needs. I didn't realize the stream names are part of the handshaking protocols. (I think their devs should add an info box on hover)
    With that self-imposed handicap, it took me a bit longer. Once I figured it out, I came back to your vid to complete the setup.
    I had your vid on both systems, toggling back and forth to make sure I hadn't handicapped myself again. My mic was down and I saw discord activate, while still hearing the video (toggling) on both systems. My first reaction was, "Wait, why is that working?"
    Excellent walkthrough, succinct and clear. I'll definately keep this one in my toolbox. Subbed. 😃

    Outstanding! Thank you so much for your time sharing this!...I would also like to point out anyone not seeing the green box when you enter IP, I found 2 solutions you might try that workd together for me:
    1- use the ip addresses assigned by your router instead of what voicemeeter showed mine were wonky for whatever reasons
    2- create rules for windows firewall to allow access for incoming and outgoing, I created 4 for each pc 1tcp and 1 udp for incoming 1tcp and 1udp for outgoing. It automatially did on one pc and did not on another, windows is so inconsistent! Also only allow on private networks!! Hope it helps!
    Also this is what worked for me your mileage may vary

    The only thing that made this more complicated than it need to be, for me at least was labeling the pcs. Gaming PC and Stream PC would be far more clear than PC1 and PC2. Maybe i missed when you spelled out which was which, but for me, being unclear on the 2 made this far more complicated.

    Protip: if you own an audio interface (e.g. Focusrite Scarlett, Presonus Audiobox, etc.) you may see the option to use ASIO as the default output driver.
    This is extremely useful if you want to monitor your own voice through VoiceMeeter as ASIO drivers can be run at really low buffer sizes. In general, any modern PC should ve able to get away with 192 - 256 samples at 48kHz which roughly translates to 10-12 milliseconds give or take a few extra for safety overhead.
    It should be noted, if you run your samplerate higher than 48kHz, you should double or quadruple your buffersize accordingly (48kHz at 256 samples, 96kHz at 512 samples, and so on), else you might get crakling audio.

    I have a new gaming PC and no speakers yet, so I've used Voicemeeter to stream its audio to my notebook's speakers. I needed the trick so that I could play games with my GF on the 'speakerless' gaming PC and hear its audio without the hassle of dealing with dual audio outputs and using 2 headphones (in the end streaming sound was easier for me).
    The only 2 problems I've stumbled on were Firewall and packet loss/errors. I use McAfee antivirus, so I had to open its Firewall config, authorize VB Voicemeeter as safe, set my network (I use wifi) as domestic, and add the 6980 UDP port exception on both computers. On the first time I've started streaming, all worked perfectly fine, but on the other day, the sound was choppy and echoed. I have good internet, are there any hints on this?

    Somehow this only works for me, if both incoming and outgoing streams on both PC's have matching 'Stream Name's.

    Hey I’m not sure if you can help me one step further by integrating a goxlr into the setup. Right now I use a goxlr to broadcast the gaming pc and mic to the streaming pc but I want to separate the mic audio out of the mix so that with later recording it can be muted independently. I think this solution would work if I could figure out how to integrate the goxlr as well

    You can also reserve IP-addresses in the router so that the router always give the same IP to the different PC's
