    I am also dealing with this issue. Different music creates different results, often not acceptable results. 

     

    We work with multiple cameras and audio sources during a broadcast. The video is mixed with a small SDI switcher and the audio is mixed with various audio boards. The audio final audio mix is sent to the video switcher for embedding in to the SDI output signal. We use the Magewell SDI to USB3 device to connect everything to SFB, pretending to be an external webcam.

    I have recently begun to suspect that SFB only uses the left channel of audio for the SFB stream. Any sound that is fed on the right channel only is not heard by any participants in the broadcast. 

    Has anyone else experienced this anomaly?

     

    thanks

    Has everyone given up on playing music in the foreground of their broadcasts?  I have found that other broadcast services such as Livestream have no problem with foreground music.  Skype Meeting Broadcast just mutilates it.

    Joshua Foley can you share with the result of MS ticket when you will have but I dare they have nothing on it and we need to wait SfB Meeting Broadcast within Teams as it seems to be within product roadmap.

    SfB Meeting Broadcast integration within Teams seems to be in Q2 meeting roadmap of Teams https://skypeandteams.blob.core.windows.net/artefacts/Skype%20for%20Business%20to%20Teams%20Capabilities%20Roadmap.pdf
