LIvVE ONLINE GUIDE
Voice Chatting
Set up and troubleshoot microphone/voice features.
Before using voice
Connect a working microphone and confirm Windows can hear it before troubleshooting LIvVE. The exact Windows control-panel wording varies by Windows version and audio driver.
- Check the Windows input device.Select the microphone you intend to use and confirm its input meter responds.
- Open LIvVE audio settings.Use the client Tools/Options audio or microphone settings available in your build.
- Join a voice-capable room.Voice controls only become meaningful in rooms/lobbies that support audio.
- Test at a moderate level.Avoid maximum microphone gain because clipping and background noise make speech harder to understand.
If nobody can hear you
- Make sure the microphone is not muted in Windows or in the client.
- Check that another application has not taken exclusive control of the input device.
- Confirm you joined a voice-enabled room.
- Reconnect to the room after changing audio devices.
- Test with another microphone/application to separate a Windows device problem from a LIvVE problem.
Good voice etiquette
Keep background noise low, avoid broadcasting extremely loud audio, and mute your microphone when you step away for a long period. Room moderators can apply additional rules for events or hosted rooms.
