Music & Video DJ
Become the DJ and broadcast audio or video from any source to everyone on your server. Share music from Spotify, game audio, a YouTube tab, or your entire screen. Listeners tune in with one click.
How It Works
1. Become the DJ
Click the DJ toolbar button on any server and hit "Become the DJ." Pick your quality preset and select what to share, a browser tab, application window, or your entire screen.
2. Everyone Gets Notified
A fun DJ announcement pops up for all online server members showing your avatar and a random message like "has entered the booth" or "has the vibes on lock." They choose to Listen (or Watch) or Ignore.
3. Listen or Watch
Listeners connect to your broadcast with a single click. Audio plays immediately. If you're sharing video, it opens in a picture-in-picture window so they can keep chatting while watching.
Share Anything
The DJ feature uses your browser's built-in screen sharing. Any audio or video source your computer can play, you can broadcast.
Music
Spotify, Apple Music, YouTube Music, SoundCloud. Share a browser tab with "Share tab audio" checked, or share your entire screen to capture system audio from any desktop app.
Videos & Streams
Share a YouTube video, Twitch stream, movie, or any browser tab. Viewers see the video in a picture-in-picture overlay while continuing to use GameVox normally.
Game Audio
Share your entire screen to broadcast game audio, or use audio-only mode for background music while gaming. Perfect for raid night soundtracks or watch parties.

Permissions & Controls
Role-Based Access
Server admins control who can become the DJ and who can listen via group permissions. Grant "Use DJ" to trusted members and "Listen to DJ" to everyone, or lock it down however you like.
Server Settings
Enable or disable the DJ feature in Server Settings under Music. When disabled, the toolbar button is hidden for everyone. When enabled, only members with the right permissions see it.
Takeover & Live Status
Any member with DJ permission can take over as the current DJ. The toolbar button glows green and pulses when a DJ is active, so everyone knows there's something playing.
Independent from Voice Chat
The DJ broadcast runs on its own WebRTC connection, completely separate from voice channels. You don't need to be in a voice channel to DJ or listen. You can be in voice chat talking to friends while listening to the DJ at the same time.
Auto-Reconnect
If your connection drops, both DJs and listeners automatically reconnect with exponential backoff. The server holds a grace period so brief network blips don't kill the session.
Works Everywhere
DJ works on the desktop app, web app, and self-hosted servers. Same feature, same quality, no plugins or bots required.
