| Gikopoipoi expects a stream to be coming from a microphone, but if you want to stream other kinds of audio (e.g.: anime, music), you need to resort to trickery if you run Windows. | <WRAP box>[[:games:gikopoi|<-- Gikopoi]]</WRAP> |

| A special tool, Virtual Audio Cable ((https://vb-audio.com/Cable/)) is used to plug a virtual speaker into a virtual microphone. After installing it, you can switch your audio output to be **CABLE Input (VB-Virtual Audio Cable)** by clicking on your speaker icon in the bottom-right corner of your screen, clicking the device name at the top of the list, and then choosing the default option. | Gikopoipoi expects a stream to be coming from a microphone, but if you want to stream other kinds of audio (e.g.: anime, music), you need to resort to trickery if you run Windows.

| Now that you're able to let Gikopoipoi listen to your audio, you're left with a problem: how can I listen to my audio from my own device? Thankfully, there is a solution from [[jews|the same company]] that made V.A.C. in the way of VoiceMeeter ((https://vb-audio.com/Voicemeeter/)). In the leftmost column, **Hardware Input**, select **CABLE Output**; on the right, for **Hardware Output**, pick the name of sound device you want to "eavesdrop" on the pipe you've built. | How can I listen to my audio from my own device? In the leftmost column, **Hardware Input**, select your microphone (if you want to talk with your computer audio), or leave it empty; on the right, for **Hardware Output**, pick the name of sound device you want to "eavesdrop" on the pipe you've built. You'll find it with trial and error if it's not obvious. |
