Hi there, im trying to broadcast live LFS Races in Window mode, so I can do other things on desktop while broadcasting.

I got several programms, that I can put LFS always on top. But the problem is, if I go to an another window, the LFS Sound disappears, LFS is still on top with no sound.

So my question here: Is there any possiblity to put the LFS Window always on top with always sound when im doing other stuff on desktop?

Thanks for helping!

You can't keep it on top if you go to an other window I'm afraid.

I can keep it on top, but the sound disappears after I click on desktop for exampel, but the LFS Window is still on top!

You need a windows app like this mate

Darn I thought that would have worked.

Here is a forum thread that might be of some use

Thank you for your post.

So I need 2 mouse, then I have 2 mice symbol on desktop. The problem might be still here. Software in forum thread etc. are from 2008 and for XP SP2.

Is there maybe an another solution?

yeah the idea of the two mouse thing was to keep one cursor in LFS and your other for the different stuff - if it would work or not I can't say. The problem is LFS seems designed to shut it's sound off when it's not in focus (which is slightly different to it being always on top)

Tweak UI might work but again I'm not sure

hm.. doesnt work, I need to installed Service Pack 1, but I have already Pack3.

Do you have more solutions ^^

The problem you approach isn't just keeping LFS on top, that is just a property of the window, but lfs looses the focus.

LFS simply becomes silent as it is loosing the focus.

I don't see any way arround this.

Just because you have SP3 doesn't mean you can't use software released that needed SP1 at the time. SP3 is just a collection of bug fixes and patches for Windows, it doesn't make old programs not work all of a sudden (that is a job for Windows Vista).

But after intalling it called: Cant setup. You need SP1 or Windows Server 2003.

ehehe - all these little problems.

You can try right clicking the exe or setup file and choose SP1 in compatability mode.

Other than that you might just want to try getting a second PC just for the streaming or for your other work while your main pc is doing the streaming.

Ok, thank you very much for you help! I will do it with 2 computers now

Cheers
