700878 2008-08-27 06:44:00 Hey guys, i was wondering if it is possible to split audio from my PC into two different output devices?

for example:

i have WMP open playing a song.
I also have a game running.
I want the game sounds to play through my headphones.
I want the music to play through my speakers.
I Dont want game and music sound through both i want each different program making the noise to have a seperate output device.


Is there a program or any setting i can alter to get this to happen?

Cheers.

this may help

Then, go into WMP and specify your output device as the other card. If it can't do that, then get Winamp, which definitely can.
