Does someone a simple take interest to audio VBAN transmitter?
stream audio to any VBAN receiver
(Send one deck (or master) to Unique IP or Multicast IP to any VBAN Receptor or Voicemeeter (Bannana - Potato) without the need of them

I don't quite understand the question.
However I have tried VoiceMeeter apps and they work fine with VirtualDJ as long as you understand how to set up everything.
To send audio via LAN and VBAN you better use cable LAN and not Wi-Fi. Also there's a slight delay between local audio feed and the receptor audio feed even in local wired LAN, but that's something to be expected with such apps.
PS: I have tried the Android receiver app as well and it also works fine. But for multiple receivers on the same network you'll need more than just a good wi-fi router / access point.

It seems i was away while writting ^^
The question is:
Does someone take interest to a simple audio VBAN transmitter?
A native simple VBAN transmitter plugin is ready (does not need VoiceMeeter to send audio to VBAN Reveiver)
If someone is interest in I can finalise it and upload it
Tested with Android & PC receivers
Allow simple per deck and master with different network settings (network and channel but does not share socket)
(It may be used to sonorise externals - pool & play areas, parking - away of the main dance floor, where latency is not an issue)
Of course it's Working as you say, delay ... (depending on samplingRate, network latency, buffers size...)
Multicast allowing multile wired receivers, WIFI allowing at most the max WIFI connections (mainly up to 8 per cell depending on router/access point)
and of course if Voicemeeter does it but with the need of more memory, cpu power and configuration time as you say "as you understand how to set up everything"

It's somehow an abandonware
there is a one year old beta one that was working with some systems but not on some other configs
look like this is a common issue with this protocol
however when it is working in multicast it's fine to get audience with smartphone and headphone and possibly multiple channels ;)
can be made available and if you are a developer source code too

I think, that VBAN works on multicast network..so over wifi it can be tricky, because some routers can blocks multicast packets. In past I bought FM radio transmitter over aliexpress, but in real word is not legal (logical). My project was silent disco on my garden - friends with FM radio and earplugs listening "quiet" songs and dancing anyway :))
If you can upload your beta plugin, it can be nice ! I Thank you.

In most European countries rules are a little more relaxed than US.
However a FM transmitter that it's max range is 200 feet (61 meters) is legal to use without a license even in the US:
https://www.fcc.gov/media/radio/low-power-radio-general-information#UNLICENSED
So I guess you were not braking the law unless you cranked the power of the transmitter up! :P

Yes "car FM transmitters" and alike are allowed, with very low power
what is fun is distance limitation, knowing it mainly depends on weather and environmental conditions
(propagation mysteries, I once got New York from Paris+ using FM mode car CB with standard 500mW power, both ways TX/RX )
Here is the 64bit version of VBanEmitter beta
https://1drv.ms/u/s!AnSOFuC3eKrugmNFEP4bBtUGlPyU?e=6yKwQa
and source code is here (with both 32 & 64 bit plugins compiled)
https://1drv.ms/u/s!AnSOFuC3eKruh05GnkNjOs-EcmeP?e=BUTsXE
This was a trial, not to install voicemeeter...
Working fine on my (Nicotux) perso system but not always on my other one (Bigbaromilly) for unknown reason
It have issue with port slider (do not use it or edit .ini file instead if needed)
VBAN can be used normaly using its ORIGINAL creator's softwares : VB-Audio voicemeeter and spot

Thank for your work BIGBAROMILLY! :) For me working ok.
I have only problem, if I disabled plugin and then again enabled, plugin not working.
On ALI I bought NKTECH CZE-7C PLL
https://www.aliexpress.com/item/32804080399.html?spm=a2g0s.9042311.0.0.27424c4dh6Sy13
With these small FM receivers it can be fun.

I have request for you Bigbaromilly. I dont know about C++ nothing, Im only web frontend developer - node.js, css, php, etc. I have idea about new plugin, which will expand VirtualDJ to more developers.
Plugin itself will be simple http web server running for example on port 8080. It will be listening for json request.
GET request -> localhost:8080 -> {"vdjscript": "get_text '`get_title` - `get_key`"'}
Plugin will return value of vdjscript json {"return" : "Madonna - xxx"}
1) It can be usefull for radio broadcasters. It can print on website actual title of song in real time.
2) VirtualDJ can be controller remotely. For example it can act like Jukebox. I can make web app in php/css/js, which will read m3u playlist ( in m3u are full paths of songs). Friends will pick up song over web UX. Javascript do GET request to PC with VDJ {"vdjscript":"load 'D:\song.mp3'"} . It will add song to automix.
What do you think? It is to complicated plugin for you?

get request is possible with the last line of
C:\Users\user\Documents\VirtualDJ\History\trackList.txt
there's a setting for the info it includes.
With a carefully setup askthedj and a bit of script there no need for anything else.

1) That's a common request over the forum
more simple to be a VDJ core feature but a plugin
2) One point : I do not think VDJ would like the users to pass over restrictions about remote/controllers for home user, it's their business ^^ so that the part with vdjscript is not something to be done
and... can be scripted using askthedj
my knowledge in windows dev is limited to basis
So that yes it's for now too complicated for me
but it looks it can be part of VBAN protocol
and another plugin (spout plugin) can have some similar feature added (spout command) not actually used

Ok I see. Can you explain me please, how can I achieve this over ask the dj function?
After summer I will try create plugin in C++.

I looked up the fm mod and in Canada you can only do short distance but, since covid you can apply for a evens license and drop the power to low and still be able to use fm. If you go to much distance the fine is 100 000$ its not hard to figure out where they are located. Someone in Calgary tried and it went all over Instagram and it stopped instantly. is there a media player that could be loaded that you could send the feed to that would keep the real time music ? This idea rocks
