Ok I have weird issue and weird question perhaps.

I’m using [https://www.nightdev.com/followalert/](https://www.nightdev.com/followalert/) and seems that works sometimes fine but the thing is my second PC where I’m monitoring my stream and chat is usually without sound so I cant hear follower notification and most of the time I’m missing them. Is there a way to get sound on my PC while I’m streaming aswel ? Or atleast chat notification somehow ?

I know that I can add &preview=true command but then I will get “test follower” notification after every stream (once for regular instant follower and then one with delay) start and everytime sound will go twice in a row on live stream ?

So simply how to get my own notification that I got follower while other PC is muted since I dont want my mic to pick up that sound.

Thanks !

Hi there. This forum is dedicated to development questions regarding the twitch API and SDK. You will likely have far better luck if you try posting in the `broadcast hardware and software` section of the [help forum.](http://help.twitch.tv/customer/portal/questions/new) Since you’re dealing with @Night’s software, you could also try [his forums.](http://community.nightdev.com/category/visual-alerts) Also a tip, `&preview=true` is for testing purposes only to see if the notification is working, and is generally not used at all during a stream.
