Option B — Use Android app + Audio over network without desktop client
This bypasses the desktop installer by capturing networked audio directly on PC.
- Android side:
- Install Audiorelay app on Android and start its server/streaming.
- Note the stream IP:port shown by the app (if available).
- PC side:
- Use VLC or an audio player that can open network streams (if Audiorelay exposes an accessible stream). This depends on Audiorelay features—many stream via a custom protocol and need the desktop helper, so this may not work.
If that fails, use alternatives below.
4.1 Audio Source Selection
In the web UI:
- Go to "Server" tab.
- Under "Capture Device", select your primary audio source:
- Stereo Mix (captures all PC sounds)
- Microphone (captures mic input)
- Specific application (requires loopback driver – not available on all 32‑bit configs)
- Set Sample Rate → 48000 Hz (optimal compatibility).
- Buffer Size → start with 20 ms; increase if you hear crackling.
4. Run as Administrator
Some audio capture modes (especially WASAPI loopback) require elevated privileges on Windows 7. Right-click AudioRelay shortcut → Properties → Compatibility → check “Run this program as an administrator”.
