Hi,

I've managed to run SourceTV for Dota2
(a guide here: https://forums.alliedmods.net/showthread.php?t=233463 )

But in official games, there's always a Broadcaster/Commentator/Caster channel in SourceTV, which basically is a person who voice comments on games and every watcher of TV can listen to it.

The problem is, I can't force TV Clients to listen to voice chats, said by a specific user.

Can anyone help me with this issue?

Edit

Things I've tried :

I think I should enable this parameter:

tv_allow_camera_man <0|1>
Allows spectator clients on game server to become SourceTV camera men (master only)

I have client A which is connected to server as Spectator (connect [ip]; jointeam spec)
and another client B which is connected to SourceTV as TV Watcher (connect [ip]:[TVPort])

I need a key/command/functionality which turns my normal Spectator client (A) to a Caster type client, so that all TV watchers (B) could see and follow that Spectator (A) camera and listen to his voice.

These are convars and parameter which I'm suspicious about:

tv_listen_voice_indices	:  0	
Bitfield of ent indices to listen to voice messages from when connected to SourceTV, default is none.

tv_grouprelaydatavoice	 0
Similar to tv_grouprelaydata, but controls whether or not the voice channels should be routed into the grouped data for the rel (incomplete description).

tv_relayvoice	 1
 Relay voice data: 0 = off, 1 = on.

voice_showchannels	 0		

dota_custom_channels	 0
 List of custom channels to join on startup.

I solved it for myself... errr somehow!
It's a rather messy solution, but solved my problem to an extent.
I enabled in-game vocie chat for all players (so that all Radiant, Dire and Spectators can hear each other's voice),
and wrote a Sourcemod plugin which mutes the sound of opposite players to each other,
so in the end, every body can hear the Caster, and each team members can hear one another, and players in the oppsite team can't hear each other...
As I said, a messy solution!
