Hello everyone,
I'm looking for a way such that when I'm talking to a friend in Skype I would be able to play a youtube video or any mp3 from my side and both would be able to listen to it ( while still being able to talk to him/her in mic ).
I have heard about Audacity and SoundFlower but I'm not really sure how to set it up.
Thanks in advance

Re: Skype call audio share ?
We agree.
There are a number of people that managed to get this to work, but they all did it on their own, we assume by "messing around," and then vanished before they told us how they did it.
There was one posting of someone struggling with volume settings when recording a Skype call. I don't know that we ever resolved it. I'll see if I can find that one again.
The elves have been caught up in an iPod/file playback problem and it soaked up all our time.
I got about 2/3 of this to work using older technology, a mixer and two Macs, but I never solved the whole thing. The problem is you have to create three different shows. The Audacity recording mix (everything), the Skype voice mix, and the Skype transmit mix. You can't send the far side voice back to them without causing feedback problems and you can't send you back to yourself without delay and echo problems.
It's far from easy and it's the podcast that everybody wants to do -- by pushing two buttons on one computer.
