@pulsar solstice Only works with the link
Question, if I want to export the information for everyone on my leaderboards, how would I do that? Like points and times in my channel?
@jade breach you can't
You can
You just have to do it through the API
If you know anything about that
But there is no button to press to export it.
let me rephrase then, you can't through the website and if you don't have coding skills
@tight harness Is there any mini games than Roulette or slots? Can I write my own mini games like !gamble (amount) ???
what is the parameters I need?
@pulsar solstice yes, it's in modules, and you can add an alias/rename it in the chat commands so viewers can use gamble instead
Creating them from scratch though, nope
Or I would like add something like !don (for double or nothing) so users can put all their points into luck. They can double the amount or lose everything. Is that possible?
double or nothing is basically roulette all
ahh ok
Yep
My friend (wullie_82 < twitch who uses your system because I reccommended him, received a twitch sub yesterday but never got an alert via streamelements and its not showing on the activity dashboard either yet is in streamlabs
@tight harness what is the commend for adding someone as regular?
what is this 300? is that the points amount?
Nope, it's the level for Regulars
Np ๐
Does anyone know how to use the plug.dj song players, I've signed but but don't know where the room name is to play in the song request tab
Is that possible to show someone's watchtime on the channel?
How long he has been watching currently + all time watching ?
${user.time_online} Time the user spent watching the Stream
It's a variable that can be added to a custom command
Ahh ok thx and an all time is not possible? Like User A is watching you for 2 hours now and have spent 100 hours in your channel
That variable is for all-time. There is no variable for time watched during one stream.
There is also ${user.time_offline} for time spent in chat when stream is offline
@clever mango is there any custom command like ranking system? I want to give users a rank for their activities. For example the user write !points and the output says: You have 1000 points, you are rank 1 in the leaderboard and your title is Commander (the Bot will automatically add users who has reached a certain amount)
Oh hmm ok :/
Can I write this into suggestions? Would be cool because I like the idea to give a rank name and people can be proud of their Title they reached
You can suggest it in #๐ญ๏ธฑfeedback-and-ideas ๐
@pulsar solstice This is already on my list of suggestions :D
perfect 
@edgy kindle oh nice you are fast โค thank you
Not really fast but it's been a long standing suggestion lol
Yeah I know that is not really new. I personally using AnkhBot now and want to change to SE. I like the browser dashboard than a exe app and now I have import all the system I used in the past 6 months =_= really Hardcore change for my channel but I love SE functions
@pulsar solstice To give you an example of how new features show up; The devs have a list they fill out. this list consists of 1. new feature 2. a feature already here but needs work(such as cheer cup) and 3. bug fixes
And yeah in AnkhBot you can name the rank ๐ that's pretty cool
Do you need help importing your points? @pulsar solstice
Yeah would be nice I don't want to import all 200 viewers manual xD
Ok, the first thing you'll need to do is make a file backup with split files
in ankhbot
Do you know how to do this?
Not really can you whisper me? I don't think people want to read about this ๐
This may actually be easier to do through voice support if you are able to do that
Well, this is a support channel ๐
Hmm sorry I am on the way to the restaurant now ๐ later maybe
And my English is really bad ๐ฆ I am not really good at speaking. Greetings from Germany ๐
No problem. When you're ready just ping me here and I'll help 
Ok Nice ๐
I would have never guessed that English was a second language for you from your writing
Oh no hehehe really actually I am from Vietnam living in Germany xD and my English is just from Secondary School ๐ฎ
That's all
I just learned through gaming and chat writing but no skill in speaking
I still don't know much vocabularies and need to use the dictionary xD
You're doing great from what I've read. Again, I'll be here whenever you're ready to import
Or is there any tutorials in YouTube? Made by SE members? If yes you can send it
@clever mango
Not yet but I will be creating one
Ah ok cool
Any and all of our youtube tutorials can be found here: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCjerlCIbLPQwSnYlClkjDXg/videos
Official youtube channel for StreamElements tutorials https://StreamElements.com
There isn't one about importing from Ankhbot though
Hmm but I can not imagine how does the import works? Maybe picking a file in the AnkhBot folder and put it into the web browser into SE Database? ๐ฎ
@clever mango
Exporting from ankhbot creates a points.xml file. We convert it to csv format with only name,points and then there is seperate site where the csv can be imported to StreamElements
Ah ok sound nice
Ah that's why AnkhBot is supporting the CSV file for RevloBot. I used RevloBot before AnkhBot but this website stoped :/
But I never imported the file ๐ฎ I just told my viewers "sorry guys we have to begin from 0" RevloBot is not working anymore. And people was really upset cause they had over 100 hours
But yeah those people still there and supporting me ๐ now a new change again and I don't want to told them this again ๐
You won't. And they'll be able to gamble again like they did with Revlo ๐
And buy stream perks/sound effects from the stream store
Oh Stream Store? What is that? Can users buy some Effect with points?
๐ฎ
That's new
Stream Store is where your viewers can spend their points on cool perks. Watch the video and learn how to set your own store. ----- Join our discord for live...
Hi can anyone help me with the Donation Goal Widget? Is it possible to show how many weeks, days are left? Thanks
If you don't tick the condensed view you do get how many days are left
Um, I haven't checked condensed and it shows a month ๐ฆ Hold on... screen shoting
@stuck hamlet Do you know where I could find the coding for this?
Coding for?
So i haven't ticked Consensed. Never did and it just shows month ๐ฆ
If there's over a month of days left then that makes sense for it to say there's a month left, are you wanting to be able to change the format of the time left so it says weeks and days instead of a month for over a month?
What is your Goal End Date? @elder mango
30th of sep
yeah. cause it sat at two months for a month and now it is at a month. @tight harness and it really makes it diffucult for people to see that time is passing
I see what you are saying now. This is something I'll have the devs look at. It appears that anything from 26 days to ~40 days shows as "a month"
Thanks for bringing this to our attention. It would be more clear to show days remaining
No worries! Glad it will be solved ๐ @clever mango I thought it was my derpyness. ๐ Yeah ti would be much clearer for the streamer and viewers for it to show weeks and days ๐
Agreed
๐
@stuck hamlet for exporting my leaderboard stats.
We have no code for it, we just have visible API.
@clever mango is it possible that the hours (watchtime) will be imported too? Or only the points?
I will have to check on this and get back to you @pulsar solstice
Alright thx would be nice because there are viewers with over 300 hours and they want to know in the new system ๐
If not it's also ok I will use both. Overlay and alerts in SE and Currency in AnkhBot @clever mango
Is there some way to download sounds I've uploaded to stream elements or stream labs? DM me if you know a way
Looking for good places to find alert sounds too
SE does not offer a download option for items that have been uploaded. https://www.myinstants.com is a great site for sound effects @lament blade
Okay, thanks!
@clever mango someone told me i could download by using the network tab?
does anyone know how to access that?
@clever mango that site has thousands of clips
I don't feel like spending days wading through troll sound effects to find something decent =/
There is a search function
I don't know who told you that, but there is no official way of downloading these.
ยฏ_(ใ)_/ยฏ
It is not possible.
Someone said it is possible through opening the network tab
It's not something we provide support for here. Sorry.
hey so Im having some issues with cheers. A memeber of my chat cheered me during a stream, and the bits showed up in the chat, but not in my alert box or even my events list on my dashboard. I pretty much am using default option for bit cheer notifications. Only changed the sound, font, and added tts. The cheered 14 and the again for 7 and it never showed up and my minimum is set to zero. Bug I guess?
Seems like the staff just vanished
We didn't vanish, you were told we don't provide support for that here
Bug help is okay, right?
Okay lovely c:
Start off by telling us the problem, it saves a lot of time
Sure i want to youse your preset overlay
when i put it on obs all works like recent follower and recent sub
but for the top donotation and recent
all is set to 0
why ?
Staff members propose a solution, but when you ask them for help they refuse to communicate
Alright then
Ian678 - Today at 11:27 AM
you can get the url for file by opening the network tab in your browser
ok I am ready @clever mango
@kind pasture I haven't heard about that happening to anybody else ๐ค will have to do some testing and get back to you
In the meantime if you DM me your settings in your overlay manager for cheering that'd be useful
As in your cheer alert settings
sure
@tight harness Allrighty, will hop on to pc and do that
so what do I need now? @clever mango
ok
@tight harness i pm you ?
I have the AnkhBot folder open now
@lament blade Hey i'll DM you.
@lament blade I was talking to BippityBoo, I haven't gotten around to your problem yet
So who can help me ?
@clever mango and what about the hours? Have you found out?
So I thought of something with the cough ${random.user} issue I brought up the other day. That it could work for say a !love command.
12:04 88lynn88: !command add !love ${sender} has ${random.user}% love with ${user} PogChamp โค๏ธ
12:04 StreamElements: @88lynn88, successfully added command love.
12:04 88lynn88: !love Nightbot
12:04 StreamElements: 88lynn88 has 46% love with Nightbot PogChamp โค๏ธ
12:04 88lynn88: !love StreamElements
12:04 StreamElements: 88lynn88 has 40% love with streamelements PogChamp โค๏ธ
Just figured I'd let people know SeemsGood
@pulsar solstice I was just informed that hours are not imported at this time. Stream Elements does track user hours (online viewing and offline) but this only begins once the streamer has signed up with SE
Would you still like to import your points? I'm happy to help if you do
can we upload another browser source to run through se's browser source?
@worn plank This cannot be done
@clever mango arrggh that is not really nice for my viewers :/ ok anyway no problem I will use both Bots Services
@clever mango thank you for your help
ok so I have an animated social media popup written in js is there any way for me to put this on your overlay setup?
@clever mango ${user} is watching the Stream for ${user.time_online} is that the right command to find out for how long a user is watching my stream when i am online?
thanks
@pulsar solstice Just to clarify, that would show the total amount of time the user has spent watching your streams since you signed up for Stream Elements. It would not show how long during a particular stream. ${user.time_offline} is a variable that is harder to track with Ankhbot because of the bot being run locally. It won't track if the program is closed or the hosting computer is asleep or off. SE bot is pretty much always running ๐
Hi, was wondering how subscriber goal works?
I've repeated my recent subscribers but the count hasn't increasee
I know this may get deleted since it's not directly with streamlabs but anyone who streams and used a 3440x1440 monitor I need help setting my obs up. Do I need to go to a 1080 16:9 or keep my screen. I don't want to play the game in a windowed 1080 format on the 3440x1440. Any help would be appreciated and you can just pm thanks in advance
@agile sundial currently counts subs per session
session being stream
we are fixing it so you can choose
ooo ok! thank you!
@simple garnet Hi, this is Stream Elements ๐. I should be able to help you with your OBS related question
What resolution are you playing your game at?
3440x1440 in fullscreen?
Yes correct @clever mango
And what do you want to output to twitch? 1920x1080?
Specs are 5820k 1080ti oc edition and the stream is choppy and I can't figure out how to clear it. I output 1920x1080 to twitch and it's choppy. If I scale the game to 1920x1080 in a small window and stream it, the stream doesn't get choppy. It's killing me and I'm wanting my stream to look good.
Open your OBS settings, go to the video tab and take a screenshot of that window please
By the way, are you using the latest version of OBS studio?
Yes I keep it up to date. I'm not at my house at this moment. Can I tag you once I'm on my pc with the pic later?
Sure
@stuck hamlet hey how are you today? ^_ ^
@stuck hamlet i'm going to stream in a bit, trying again to work out how to take an 1080p animated theme and have it reduced to 480p
the problem is that I'm using xsplit
I maybe found a workaround but the problem is that compressing that much the animation comes up weird obviously
Ah yes, now I remember
@ebon forum is a Stream Elements champion who uses xsplit. Maybe he can help out here?
I'll wait for him to answer then... is also known that if I switch scenes through xSplit, takes 2/3 seconds to "load" the webpage the overlay comes from?
This is normal as it is a webpage that must be loaded into the scene. I'm not sure about Xsplit but in OBS studio, the streamer can use "studio mode" to pre-load the scene before transitioning to it
Does xsplit have something similar?
yeah I can open a preview of the scene by hovering the mouse over the scene
but not sure if it was a known problem or something that there's nothing we can do about XD
It's common for browser sources, especially animated ones. There may be a way to reduce the load time in the future through cacheing but I'm not sure if/how that would work TBH

@clever mango how can i get one of my overlays to show?
You've created it using the overlay manager?
yeah
Are you using the latest version of OBS studio?
yes
You get the overlay URL by clicking Launch at the bottom left corner of the overlay editor
you should be able to resize your browser sources in xplit @rough sedge
if not its a shit program xd
thanks @clever mango
By the way @harsh dove this assumes that your OBS Base (Canvas) Resolution is set to 1920x1080 in Settings -> Video
If it's not let me know and we can adjust
@clever mango @stuck hamlet I managed to get it working, now I just need to understand how to make it read the stats from the channel instead of the session (yes I've linked my streamlabs to streamelements)
Stats like that are currently session based, we are rolling out a fix for you to be able to choose this soon

like you can smell it
noice
do you also have in mind to add minigames with points and all? maybe bot renaming too?
we have some minigames, under modules.
Renaming can't be done if we host the bot. we are looking on ways we want to proceed with this. but nothing for the near future
๐
Is the bug problem already fixed? ๐ฎ
หข แตแตแถฐ แตแต
Exterminator is on the way
@rough sedge do you still need some help with Xsplit?
@ebon forum so-so XD seems that it's quite taxing for the cpu to manage animated overlays, but I think I've managed to add them in the right size for the moment
@rough sedge yep. Xsplit is generally a bit heavier than OBS and with animated overlays you need a beefy CPU. i suggest 6-8 core with a decent OC if you want to run everything and dont care ๐
guys how do i appear in the Sellout section
you need to be using all of the pieces of the system, (bot, overlay, tipping) and then just ask someone like @weary mist
do i have to use the bot
If you want to join the sellout channel, it is all three parts
afaik, I'm not on the sellout list yet and yes, I am using all of those parts, completely given up on StreamLabs when I moved to StreamElements
Have you messaged anyone yet?
not yet
hi, can anyone help me please? my layout is not working, how can i fix that? top donators and followrs are not showing up
ok thanks
@weary mist I think my body is ready to become a Sellout 
I've setup everything today, gonna be smoother in the following days
:)
can someone help me with Alerts
My sounds are still broken SFX they get reeedemed and nothing happens
@harsh dove What's your problem with alerts?
i made an overlay that was just an alert box (no backgrounds) but the page won't load
@hasty briar Do they play when you click on the Play button in your store page?
Yes
@hasty briar Did you add the Store Redemptions widget to your overlay?
@tight harness i think its because theres no background
Yes unless it was removed this happened a while back and nuuls fixed it for me said it was something on their side
@harsh dove The background is transparent, it'll only show something when you get an alert, what happens when you emulate an event in the overlay manager?
does SE support a tip jar like StreamLabs

lemme check that
Tip jar is under construction last i heard
oh good i can finally 100% switch over to SE now that i know that
@clever mango is there an ETA on the jar
ok so patience is worth it
@tight harness it looks like everything is working
im excited now
@harsh dove Good news ๐
Ok, yeah some how my store redemption was removed added it back fixed now
There is a preview of a basic cup in #297092117933719552. I say basic because there will be a lot of customization
@hasty briar That's awesome ๐ glad we figured that out
is there any giveaway with stream elements?
Yep
i think i found it
Left hand side of the dashboard in the Loyalty section
There's actually Giveaways and Contests, if you want them to display an overlay on the stream add the widget for them in the overlay manager ๐
Contests allow your viewers to bet on outcomes (Ex. Will I win or lose the next round?) with their points. It's a lot of fun.
You make them too so they can be anything with multiple outcomes to choose from
@clever mango @tight harness I added a live chat but i would like to know how much lag should i add to the chat?
When someone auto-hosts you do they still receive the bonus points that you setup? Rather than just doing a regular host
Entirely up to you @harsh dove experiment with it
k thx
There's currently no difference between an auto host or a manual host, a host is a host
So both are rewarded
cool thanks ๐
@clever mango sorry for the late reply but i can see the preview of the cup
@tight harness im confused how the giveaway widget works, does it show a timer?
there is a preview in #297092117933719552 I believe
โคด
@harsh dove There is a timer on the site and it can display the timer on the stream for up to a minute I believe (unless that was changed)
@harsh dove you could always start a giveaway to see what it is, just temp. But it shows timer and count of how many people have entered
3rd one from the bottom
So i'm still sorta new to stream elements and had a question.....is it normal for CPU usage to spike with OBS when using the animated superthemes?
yes
think about this: The browser source with OBS uses CPU, and it has to animate all those things on its own
it doesn't get the assistance of a GPU
so the animated things tend to suck down a bit more CPU than normal
I'm getting spikes in the 90-100% CPU usage tho....how do people use them with that kind of drain?
It all depends on hardware and the components in the scene
i7-6700k cpu, Radeon r9 390 gpu, 16 gb ram....attempted the bulletstorm animated supertheme for battlegrounds
what are video quality are you streaming at
that processor shouldnt have that kind of problem
right now just having obs open, no game with the BRB scene the only source my cpu is holding at 88% w/o streaming or recording right now.
one sec on the vid quality
I am running the same processor, while playing PUBG I get about 80-90%, but that is including everything else I am running
I am actually streaming with that overlay now โค
what vid quality stuff you wanting to know specifics on?
I usually have bitrate 6000 with AMD encoder.....pretty much the obs tool's suggested settings
@clever mango yes, the scene i have loaded only has that one source going
@unique ore But do you have other browser sources in other scenes?
And if so, are they shutting down when not visible?
For every browser source, it's highly recommended to check the box in the source properties to "shut down when not visible"
but then they have to boot when you switch scenes
yeah, I use studio mode for that
Yes, but it also means you're not running x number of animated overlays at one time
oh i never thought about that
i usually use studio mode anyway so that's not a big change for me
i thought on your guys video it said to keep them open?
....you're right....i remember that now.....
that's helped alot now that i've gone through and done that to the scenes
i'm down to about 40-48 avg now
ok. thanks for the help there....i knew it had to be something i was doing wrong with the hardware i had
appreciate it
my chat widget won't work all its showing is a black box
Is your text black?
light colors
like a light red?
My experience so far has taught me to avoid red at all costs in streams
oh oke
i made it a white
Is it working now?
i wish i could simulate a text
just type in your chat
Sorry @simple garnet missed your message. Just a sec
all good im waiting lol
Ok first thing I notice that might be giving you issues is Lanczos downscaling
if its easier for you to get into a room i do have a headset.
It's generally not worth it in my experience. Bicubic is almost always adequate
Remind me again please what you were having trouble with
Lag?
I'll jump in voice support in a minute
@weary mist can i ask you about troubles about Streaming (Making a name)
so my recent sub and top cheer got removed. is there a way to add it manually?
@harsh dove Are you needing help creating a name for your stream?
@edgy kindle whats happening is that it says that i need a twitch supported language
Hmm what are you trying to name?
Ah alright
@harsh dove ask away
@weary mist I got it fixed
I followed all directions to get set up. I go on twitch and I see my live stream but when I go to stream elements I get nothing. Says no activity
the activity will only show if you get an event (follow, host, tip, cheer)
I apologize if this has been asked recently, but is "Top Cheer" bugged?
ok so how do i see what other people see? like the overlay design
link your twitch account to your discord profile
ok. so for you, @lofty delta, how are you streaming to twitch, is it a console, capture card, or a broadcasting software?
im using the twitch app and OBS
@harsh dove your bot is working, you just need to play with the commands ๐
and im on my computer
ok, so for overlays, you have to add it via a browser source link. I recommend you spend some time and watch some of the youtube videos we have put together to teach people how to do everything there is for streaming/streamelements
Setting up StreamElements is easy, learn how to in this video, hosted by Twitch Partner GIRLvsDUMB - Got any questions, or just want to say "Hey"? Join our D...
there is more than one video ๐
ok i'll check em out again. thanks
@harsh dove You gotta contact Scalper, hectic, or styler once you're using tipping, overlays, and the channel bot
i have everything but the tipping (i don't have tipping set up because i don't have a paypal)
once you do that, I can get you added ๐
so my recent sub and top cheer got removed. is there a way to add it manually?
yes, if you go into the editor, click widgets, then add that widget ๐
So for some reason, my overlay just gets cut off at anything less than 1920x1080. The widegets and tabs don't shrink to fit the resolution, any idea on what I'm doing wrong? Streaming at 960x540, but the overlay only shows like 2 tabs even on the website
What's the difference between "Win message" and "Winner message" on the Duel settings?
Ready @lapis pecan
@weary mist I have it still added its just the name is mission
oh, there are some updates to the sessions page that are comming soon that will take care of that. In the mean time, you can replay your previous cheer even to fill the spot temporarily
@clever mango @weary mist hey wanted to say thanks again! I was able to do my stream and it turns out that was a lot of the problems I been having elsewhere in my streams. Tonight I was hitting around the 80% cpu with everything running like you said. So I have all my scenes fixed now.
how to stream?
๐ โค @unique ore
Great to hear @unique ore 
@lament blade I recommend looking up videos on youtube on how to stream, we are here to assist once you have a basic understanding
What app are you guys using for mobile streaming? Saw this video...
Join our discord for help: https://discord.gg/NdjRD6e
There are many but bitstream is one of the most popular

Hey guys! So, I've been working on an overlay for a buddy of mine, and it dawned on me as I finished it, it's going to show my information, and not his, since I made it on my profile. Is there any way I can transfer the overlay to him? Or export/upload it somewhere so he can get it?
@edgy kindle
@lilac fractal Sadly not
Bummer... Alright, thank you! Y'all should maybe make that a feature some day. ๐
@lilac fractal It wont be required when SuperMod dashboard access goes live~
SE bit boss battle > plastic cheer cup ๐ธ
having a cheer cup > not having a cheercup
Situation ==true
In your theme gallery, there are no mobile ones are there?
Any advice for building one? Namely should I make one for portrait and one for landscape I imagine?
I can't find the Themes tab when creating an overlay
@void lodge This has been made it's own tab on the main dashboard.
It's labeled Theme Gallery
I just noticed it, thank you!
Any chance PaySafeCard and iDEAL will be implemented as payment methods?
yes, we are working on it
Im getting this error when installing GroundControl
aww sheet son
rigged 
I had to disabe AV ๐
Derp question, but I changed my username on Twitch and now my chat widgets won't work since Streamelements didn't update- is there a way to change my username on Streamelements so I can keep all the loyalties data?
just sign out and sign back into SE
and it should fix ๐
Refresh your cache on obs too
i still got a problem tho... all my data is gone from live feed and my overlays
@ruby anchor we are working on it
why doesnt the live chat widget automatically delete deleted messages in chat
@silk patrol any ide on when it fix?
@ruby anchor No ETA yet, work is being done
can someone respond to my question :v
also why does the streamelements website constantly hang my browser
@coral kelp Are you using Chrome? we recommend that people use Chrome who use our website as it's built to work smoothly with Chrome
yes i use chrome
@coral kelp The only time I have the website even remotely lag is when I have 100% CPU usage, it's running fine for me now
working fine for me too. As for the chat widget, it's still in beta
there is always room for improvement
well id like really appreciate it because people constantly harass me and exploit the fact that i have to manually clear the chat widget whenever they say dumb bs because it stays on stream
Am i really the only one with huge problems in my counters? the donater count and subscriber count ???? :/ it havent worked at all since i started using streamelements.. and you guys keep says "we will fix this" but nothing happens :/ what is wrong with this shit ? ๐ฆ do i really need to go back to streamlabs or something? ๐ฆ
well, all my counters reset.. and when i go to the session dashboard and type in the numbers it wont save it.. "latest donater" is working, but it says "top donator = 0"
and it only counted 1 sub, who subbed yesterday.. it wont count all my other subs.. and again, wont save it when i manually type in the number.. altsรฅ it counts resubscribers as "subs".. cant change that..
A new version of the session page is being worked on, the count fields don't work anymore because data is being pulled from twitch automagically. That's why you can't type anything into it
so i will never be able to make it count my donations i have already recived?
They will appear once everything gets sorted out
They are still being registered, only the display part is not working right now
Hi, I have a question about streamelements overlays
I would create one overlay with some widgets, but I would like to not show all widgets at the same time
would it be possible to show one widget, make it dissapear and then show other different widget?
@dire kelp Hi, if you want it to be done automatically, then no it's not possible, that's a very specific behavior. But it can be done manually, just create multiple overlays and hide/show them whenever you want in OBS
or open the overlay editor and hide (the eye icon on the bottom left) the widgets you want to hide, and then save
โคด works too. i thought of it as well, and it will use less CPU, but you need the overlay editor open all the time
but i want to do it automatically, one element in obs which shows latest follower a few seconds, then latest sub or any other stuff, a "cycle of widgets"
As I said, it can't be done
maybe in the future, feel free to request it here #๐ญ๏ธฑfeedback-and-ideas
ok, thanks for the response ๐
Is there a way to turn off the donation part where they can add a youtube video with the doantion as i dont want to have that as an option.
@lament blade yep https://streamelements.com/dashboard/songrequest/settings
I cant get my Loyalty settings (Host bonus) to work :/ Do the "hosts" need to be streaming to host me before it triggers ? - RasserGG
Not to my knowledge
I am a small (Really small ๐ ) streamer but i would like to "give" my friends who autohost me some "Points" because most of my interaction with viewers are with points ๐ but we tested it 10 times now and after an host no points are automatic given ๐ฆ
@burnt sky Was that an autohost or a manual host ?
How do i get the announcements in my discord channel?
@silk patrol i have tested with bough
@lament blade We don't have a discord bot
(sorry for the bad english) - i am danish ๐
@burnt sky no prob. by tested, do you mean that you've asked your friends to host you to see if they earned points ?
Yes ๐ i got also got 1-2 totally new viewers to host me just to check it out, and noone got the 100 points
Thanks for the feedback, we will investigate it
Thanks ๐ #BestToolEver #FuckMoobot
lol
Is it normal that the names have no colours in the chat widget when it's transparent, can I enable that?
@white lintel If you check in the text settings if it was able to be changed it'd be in there, give that a test, if not then it's possible it's not been added yet, it is still in beta ๐
No problem! Thanks for the answer
You're very welcome ๐
I was using StreamElements for the first time last night and everything seemed to go just fine. I have an issue with the activity feed though. It shows the 4 follows I got last night, but it doesn't show the host. Any idea why?
Auto-hosts maybe? I don't know if they appear in the activity feed like regular hosts
Could be but I doubt it, this was someone that never hosted me before.
If youre in a twitch team, you might be getting auto hosts from its members. Happens to me a lot, dont know most of the people that i get those auto hosts from
i'm not on a team but would it work the same for a community? If so that would make sense. I just checked and the host showed up in muxy.
I don't think it works for communities, since there is no setting for that in the twitch preferences and there is one for teams. It does work for similar channels as mentionned in the autohost settings
Is there any kappagen commands? 
Yes, !kappagen [emote] [amount]
Screams!
Thank you a ton!
No problem ๐
Hm, dunno what happened. Guess we'll see what happens in the future, maybe just a bug ๐
I believe auto-hosts do show up in the activity feed just the same as manual hosts
Quick question about giveaways. I like my subs to name new characters. Is there a way to set up Giveaways for Subs only?
@viscid steppe Not currently, you can set sub luck but not subs only, although it is a feature which has been requested plenty of times so I know it's going to be a thing ๐
I really appreciate your help @tight harness You have been so amazing these past few days as I figure this all out! You rock! ๐
No problem ๐ 
Im highly considering switching to StreamElements and I was curious on a scale of not really customizable to totally customizable, how customizable is it?
@sly cape You have to try it to figure that out. Some parts are highly customizable, others aren't. It's not a black and white situation, like most things in life. But I can clearly say that it's more customizable than other platforms
@silk patrol I currently use StreamLabs in conjunction with AnkhBot, and idk, I just feel like trying something new.
I like to tinker, so I will give it a shot
@sly cape We are in beta so if you have any suggestions just give us a shout in #๐ญ๏ธฑfeedback-and-ideas
@tight harness I'll keep that in mind. Thank you!
Hi are the widgets still broken?
Which widgets in particular?
Latest Subscriber and Newest Donation seem to be the ones I had problems with!
Even when I reset and it updates, it would revert to showing nothing or ยฃ0
Thank you @silk patrol
Hi none of the chat commands are working for me in the twitch chat for any of the channels I have subscribed to or that I'm following.
They was working fine yesterday but nothing today, I have tried signing in and out of twitch. Closing my browser and restarting the laptop, even tried using different browsers all to no avail.
@lapis canopy which channels? You are the only person right now that has reported the issue. Also, which commands are you attempting to use?
Rushlock (!points !roulette !top points) and Markeedragon (!gold and !raid) all these commands seem to be working for everyone else
Can you DM me links to their stream?
@serene granite i want to enter the giveaway for D2 but i dont know how to copy the link for my retweet
@agile sundial It seems this is related to the other widget issues we've had recently, fixing hopefully coming tonight
you know that's a good question
should i just link my twitter ?
@tight harness Sounds great! Look forward to it :3
As do I ๐
ok i have a problem... my streamelements bot is showing up as a viewer and not a mod when its clearly a mod
Showing up where as a viewer?
on my twitch
Try unmodding it then remodding it?
No problem ๐
Curious question, why is it important to "Shutdown source when not visible?" - isn't it better since the overlay loads up faster?
If it's open in the background that uses up valuable resources which don't need to be used up
and audio that comes in through it (such as an alertbox triggered due to an event) will be heard on your stream
is there any problem with streamelements atm? the commands don't work
@lament blade Not aware of any problems with commands ๐ค i'll give it a test
Ahh I see, thank you!
@tight harness not in my channel tho ๐ haven't tested it there
@lament blade You're right, commands aren't working for me either
oh ok
@serene granite Commands aren't working currently, are we pushing any updates atm?
yes
ahh, ๐ that'll be why
oh ok thank you ๐ how long will that take?
Never takes long ๐
oh updates... what for ?
thanks for the fast reply
You're very welcome, multitasking champion here 
as always ๐
@lament blade please go on the dashboard and tell it to part the channel and then join the channel
it'll speed up the process.
Twitch is restarting a cluster filled with offline channels.
ok i can't do that on the channel i'm moderating ๐
Do what hectic said to resolve it
but i'll tell
Anyone available for voice support?
@serene granite will the update be adding any new features ?
So for the chat widget and commands is there an option to have the chat widget show the "message deleted" thing when you timeout/ban someone ?
@hasty chasm I'll write it down.
or when the bot times someone out
Question! For some reason my commands and music requests are not working while I am live. Anyone else having issues? I have refreshed and did all my usual things to get it back.
^ I'm having this problem too.
This is to do with what we were just talking about, the bot is restarting for some updates to go live
@tight harness its actually twitch restarting some chat servers apparently
my bad
Ohh whoops ๐
we're also releasing updates but theyre not related to the bot
will post in #270206314561404928 when its live
It'll be back in ALL disconnected channels in ~7 minutes.
@dense egret @lament blade โคด
Thank you!
No problem ๐
sadly not >.< I use youtube since I'm pretty familiar with it
Is there a way of linking custom commands to chat instead of all available commands?
@agile sundial can you explain that a bit more? I don't know what you mean
So you see how you can look at the commands for my channel using https://streamelements.com/ninjanultrix/commands ?
I don't want to show all commands, just the custom commands I have made
So if you do !commands in chat, it'll show the custom commands - not all haha, if that makes sense?
Ah, that makes sence. But no, that is not an option at the moment
oh okay, understood! thanks!
youtube is ok, but i'd like something a little different, i have tried what i can see, edit the name of the room but on Plug.dj it doesn't say what the room name is:
Hey! Hope you all are well! How do I get my Total Subscriber Widget to show an accurate amount? It is stuck on 0? Do I need to go live for it to take in the correct info?
@frigid kayak We're aware of this, it's something we're hoping to have fixed tonight ๐
It should resync when you go live every 2 minutes aswell.
Oh!! Perfect! Thank you! I'll just leave it up then! Didn't know if it was on my end
Some changes are being made to the session page, it'll be well worth it ๐
hey i need help :p
What's the problem?
what's up @potent pine
okay so, i imported my data from streamlabs into streamelements, and tried to use a streamelements overlay, but its using data from so long ago, like nearly 6 months ago, any idea how to get it to todays info?
Using data from so long ago? What kind of data? ๐ฎ
You could reset your session, then all the imported data is still there but any current session data is reset, the session page is being worked on tonight though so may be worth waiting a little first.
Someone can help with the song request command? D:
ill wait for now, thanks for your time and help ๐
@kind jacinth What's your problem with the song request command?
@potent pine No problem at all ๐
๐
@tight harness when someone with that command put the song in the queue, to let the song play during the stream I must have the music page of streamelements open? Or I don't know! D:
Yes, you need either the page open or Ground Control open, either of those HAS to be open because that's where the music comes from
Hope that makes sense ๐
It'd be impossible for you to have the music playing otherwise
is there any chance of youtube support for the now playing in the future at any point in time
or even spotify
It currently works for song requests but not backup queue
This is because of a youtube API limit
So yes, in the future it is possible that it will work for all youtube songs
Spotify has been talked about and could also be possible in the future
@tight harness ground control?
We basically have a limit of how many API calls we can make from Youtube, so for now it's limited
@kind jacinth Ground control is a desktop app that you can download which has some features available
It's great because it plays and manages SR, shows your activity feed (compact mode available) and allows you to set hotkeys for certain actions (very helpful)
Also, dark mode 
darkmode = legendary
In some cases it's probably better than having a Chrome tab open too ๐
no pun intended @tight harness
Hi all .. I'm having an issue with my subscriber sound effect still plays even though i've removed it from the sub alert . And i went one further by deleting it from SE all to gether ???
Did you check your variation settings for subscriber alerts?
Also, try refreshing the overlay
yes i deleted all those too .. i have no variations in the list
ive re-started my browser too
If you mute the overlay editor tab, do you still hear the sound effect?
yes
it still plays
yes
@tight harness thank you! >w<
i closed obs and it doesn't play ..thanks i'll reset them
Certain changes require the browser sourc to be refreshed or have their cache refreshed in the browser source properties
You can hide and reopen the source or refresh cache from the properties
it was coming from a different scene on obs
Figured it out?
yes thanks !
Awesome ๐
Coming from a different scene means that "Shutdown source when not visible" may not have been checked
Double check that this box is checked for all browser sources
Should it be checked by default?
It's often not checked by default but we recommend that it's checked in most cases to save resources
Oh to save what resources?
Well if you have browser sources open then it's going to use CPU, if you hide them when they're not in use then you save CPU usage ๐
Dual PC stream setup but will have that in mind
And one more thing why I'm not on sell out chat?
With static overlays it's not so much a problem but if you've got 3+ animated (this includes scrolling text) overlays then the cpu usage skyrockets
You can request to be in the sellout channel if you use everything as in overlay, tipping page and bot ๐
You just need to ask a Staff member if you meet that criteria
I think I use all of that#
I'm pretty sure they check if you ask ๐
Will ask tomorrow
Sounds like a good idea ๐
I'm up for any promotion to my young channel
As they say, any publicity is good publicity ๐
Stream elements also is a great tool but I still can't find payed stuff here ๐
Stream Elements is completely free to use
I know and that's what surprises me
SE has venture capital, they have no need to monetise any of the features ๐
@tight harness "Well if you have browser sources open then it's going to use CPU, if you hide them when they're not in use then you save CPU usage" - how are we to monitor chat, twitter, SE etc?
Now I think I know why it's so hot in my room when I stream....
There are other methods of monitoring chat that don't involve having a browser open. You can also use Stream Elements' Ground Control app to monitor activity feed and manage song requests
I stream single PC and rarely have my browser open
@lost ridge I'm not saying have no browser sources open ๐ I'm saying minimise how many you use
Oh, ok @tight harness
Any browser?
My music is from browser...
Any update on the cheer cup? We've been hearing "next week" for the last 2 months lol
Nope, I use the youtube plugin
There is no ETA at this time for the cup. The main job right now is optimizing it so that it does not affect performance too much
@ancient wigeon Getting deja vu? 
This is no ordinary cheer cup
Is it a Marks & Spencer cheer cup? 
A who and what?
I guess that's an English thing 
..
It goes something like "This isn't just any x, this is a Marks & Spencer x"
Ok no, forget what I said
Marks & Spencer is a somewhat posh brand in the UK and they have adverts which use that slogan ๐ we make a lot of jokes about it here
They do a lot of things but it does seem to be primarily clothing yeah
Hey guys is there a way to edit the images from the layouts provided? I tried opening them up with a .webp plug-in but in GIMP but it's failing. All I'm trying to do is flip the image 180*
Not something that we provide, although a flip feature on the overlay manager may be an idea for #๐ญ๏ธฑfeedback-and-ideas
Ah... yeah.
Exactly ๐ sounds nice
Make sure to put it in #๐ญ๏ธฑfeedback-and-ideas @dark charm ๐
No problem ๐
I seem to be having an issue connecting with twitch on the website
Are you attempting to sign up or already have?
I haven't signed up with stream elements, I just clicked on "connect with twitch" on the main webpage and it let me access stream elements using my twitch account
that was last friday though
So where is the issue if it let you access the website?
It's no longer letting you access the website?
Did you reach the Stream Elements dashboard that day?
@clever mango yes
And now when you try to connect with twitch it doesn't do anything?
yeah it just reloads the page
Chrome?
Are you currently logged in on twitch's site?
Also worth asking if you're using a VPN, that can cause problems
What about the website?
logged in fine
Would you mind if we connected via teamviewer so I can take a look?
idk what that is
It's a remote viewer. It just allows me to see what you're seeing
I haven't seen this come up before so I'm not quite sure how to proceed
But seeing it should help
What was the fix?
Link protection? If you turn it on, should you keep the setting on twitch channel settings?
you guys are goping to make fun of me
Nah, it's useful to know for future reference ๐
I would use one or the other @frigid scarab
I didnt realize that I had to be logged into the actual twitch site to log into stream elements..................
silly me
@gleaming grotto Ahh, that's why I asked if you were logged into the website ๐
Yea, no worries glad you got it figured out
yeah
It uses your connection to the twitch site to log you into SE
thank you guys for the help though, i appreciate all the hands on
You're very welcome ๐
Soooo I haven't looked into it at ALL.... BUT, here's something someone may be able to answer quickly for me ?
How do I get my overlay to detect the song I have playing if it's playing in Pandora on the web browser?
@frigid scarab Are you interested in blocking all links or certain ones?
It's not possible @dark charm
Currently the overlay now playing widget pulls from youtube song requests, plug.dj, and dubtrack.fm
I believe we've been looking into other things like Spotify too ๐
But I haven't heard about that one in a while
Basically you can create a room where you and others can add songs to a playlist
dubtrack works the same way
i like dubtrack for the 3 seconds i used it

So I figured out the plug.dj thing, but the room name is "โช EDM | TRAP โช" and it's not updating the song ATM
is it due to the special characters?
Possibly ๐ค
try lowercase?
when I go into my overlay and try to add a "total followers" widget, it shows I have 3 followers. But twitch says I have 48. How can I fix this?
lowercase didn't fix the issue
@sleek geyser once you start streaming, it should pull those values from twitch every 2 minutes
@dark charm try a room without symbols
just as a test
I tested it. It looks like the symbols are the problem
So it's got to be a simple name then, I figured as much
I even tried "[Trance House Chill]" and it's not working
so no symbols period I guess
I'll make the devs aware of this
@weary mist I've been streaming for quite some time and it still shows 3 total followers instead of 48
@sleek geyser I had this issue before you may have to update it in your monthly count
manually
@sleek geyser you could try a session reset, there are updates that could have caused it to freeze up
@sleek geyser โคด That, also you could try readding the widget, we used to have only Follower Count which simply counted up when you gained 1, now we have Total Followers which pulls in the number of followers from Twitch every 2 minutes
@sleek geyser go to activity feed in your dashboard
then edit session
change those numbers there
Updating it manually are a thing of the past 
My buddy and I were racking our brains as to why it wasn't updating for us about 2 months ago
happy to see this was fixed :}
There are changes coming to the Edit Session page
nice work


going to stream in an hour. I have the countdown clock widget up and it is at zeros. How do I restart it?
Refresh the browser source
In OBS?
yes
Cool Thanks!
You're welcome
Who's TAL?
@mortal heron TAL? Explain please
Yeah Tal Assif is their legal name
oh is it a staff member in here?
@atomic hollow
oh ok!
yeah, he is a guy
I need help
stream elements isnt working on my streamg usy what do i do ๐ฆ
It always works but the commands arent working now
part and rejoin the bot
๐
i try using a super theme thing but it doesnt show the whole overlay
Keep getting an error message when trying to update the duel module?
anything over 1800 seconds on user seems to bug it
@lament blade Did you change your SE overlay size?
no whats that
1920x1080
Go to your browser source properties and change the resolution to 1920x1080
how do i do that
Right the source
properties
It's the window that popped up when you added the browser source
thanks
Everytime you add a browser source you must to set the dimensions of the source and check the box to shut down source when not visible
It sounds like the max cooldown on duel is 1800 seconds @next spruce
Is there a way to sync my alerts across all scenes so I can switch scenes while an alert is playing and not mess it all up?
There is but it requires the same alert box to be used in all scenes
oh ok
And NOT setting that alert overlay to shut down
It should be pretty rare that an alert plays while switching scenes but if it does happen you can always replay it from the dashboard or Ground Control
my sub count is wonky, Twitch dashboard is saying I have 11, streamelements is saying I have 2
@lament blade Are you using Goal?
.... now that you brought that up I had to look to make sure
it's sub count, so that's session, week, or month, thanks for making me look
Np
actually no
There is a Total Subscribers widget now
I just did total subscribers and it's saying 2
This will update with Twitch within 3-5 minutes of you going live next time and then will update every 2 minutes after while you are live
Same with Total Followers
last time I checked I had 11, according to the dashboard I have 11, the goal used to say 10
@lament blade Did you just receive 1 today or ...?
Hmm
Goals Progress CAN be edited in Edit Session
It's the totals that are pulled automatically
@clever mango It's Total not goal he's having issues with
btw I love your name @edgy kindle
@lament blade According to our information Currently the widgets will update in real time and will also update 1 hour post stream. Since yours is not updating properly we'll inform out staff
thanks
I have no doubt it'll get handled ๐ you guys have amazing support
and I hope that never changes
oh, it won't. They keep some of us tied up in the basement
we get food and sometimes light for good support

it's safe from most natural disasters at least right?
yeah, I think its a bunker
you're better off, the sun gives ya cancer anyway 
says the blacksmith 
omg right? Me too, anyway thanks for letting me be heard guys, but I'm off to bed
@weary mist Fire heat is different when you're working above the coals
lol
how do i get the songs i am playing on my pc on the current song thing?
@midnight marsh the only way to get songs onto the current song widget is to play through one of the 3 sources: youtube, plug.dj or dubtrack.fm
@weary mist it supports just YouTube now?
What exactly? song request, yes. @next spruce
Current song widget displays youtube videos that are requested, not any youtube video
I currently am streaming and can not get song requests to work in my chat room
What seems to be the issue. @tough turtle
i can copy and paste the !sr url and it works, but no one in the chat can. it says that they've requested too many songs or to provide a vaild URL which they are.
but there's nothing in the que unless i copy and paste it
Head over to your song request settings and check if you set a max of song people can request.
no there is no max.
Minimum user level set?
Try setting the max to 10, save and try again ๐ค
StreamElements: @protectchloeprice, could not add song: You have requested too many songs
"No max" seems to be blocking it. Bot might think you mean 0 requests.
she hasnt requested any btw, that was her first
So test by setting it to 10
@y4ssou230, you must provide a valid youtube id or url
@GuyNaruto, could not add song: The requested song is too long
each person is getting dif. error messages
hawleigh
Glad we could fix your issue on your stream! ๐
Careful: Wall of text
Problem: alert sound playing double or single when it shouldnt be playing at all
- OBS opened and streaming (Twitch), NO browser source with any alerts in the current scene (to test it out live with my viewers I just put my webcam in it with just blank screen)
- browser opened, SE dashboard page open (as always when streaming to modify things on the fly, for example custom commands, etc. but as mentioned the overlay editor was NOT OPENED in any tabs)
- opened the overlay editor to trigger a test alert, sound was muted there (result should have been: no alert at all to be heard, because in browser it was muted and in obs there was no browser source with an alert in it)
- result: alert sound played (wasnt shown in obs of course)
I thought maybe the mute/unmute button didnยดt work in the editor so i turned it on but then it played double (1 from overlay editor and 1 from I DONT KNOW)
I tried different things and everytime there was 1 alert playing from a source I didnยดt get my hands on. Definitely from SE because i created this specific alert there.
My next question was...what would happen if I create a NEW overlay with a NEW alert box with a DIFFERENT alert sound & gif and put only this in a OBS Scene?
Result: When I triggered the alert in the editor (editor muted), the new GIF & SOUND showed up in the obs scene, played just fine....BUT also there was the previous alert sound playing, thatยดs only attached to the other overlay/alertbox that isnยดt used in the current scene/overlay.
I just donยดt get it, where does it come from?
First time experiencing this but as mentioned, I canยดt get my head around it and my viewers (following my steps and seeing dashboard etc. while testing it) couldnยดt either.
Sorry for the lengthy text, here is a TLDR helper:
- Problem: An alert sound is playing when triggered, even when itยดs not put into any scene in OBS, donยดt know where it comes from but itยดs my creation, just not active anywhere I would know of.
@slender lichen just seems like you haven't ticked an option on your BrowerSource.
It's called ''Shutdown source when not visible''
All BrowserSources are global, that means always active, UNLESS you turn that setting on i just mentioned
Even when "invisible" (deactivated) in the active scene or not even present in the scene (like a scene where only a webcam is active and nothing else)?
Didnยดt know that OBS would show/use stuff that isnยดt in the current scene oO
yes. like i mentioned, all sources are global and will make sound/appear on the other scene if you dont turn it off
Also, if you switch your scenes quick enough, you'd see it as well.
so just turning that setting on will fix it
๐
ok so on every SE browser source or only on ones with the alerts in it?
Would be best ALL to reduce as much CPU usage as possible. But if that isn't an issue for you, then just the alerts
ok great. that whole "playing in the background" thing explains the higher cpu usage for the last streams, thx for clearing this up.
Edit: reduced the cpu usage by 8%, what a great side effect ๐ thanks a lot

My Session Top Donator isn't working?
what do you mean by ''not working''
doesnt update sorry
it was working
went to 105
then stopped
hes donated like 150 now
tried refreshing it etc
would switching computers have any effect?
if he donated from one computer then logged in on another
what widget are you using? and he donated in one donation, or is this all added up?
added up
no the computer should not make a difference, thats the point of SE. as long as the user name is the same
what widget are you using? whats the name
the layer says Top Donator 1
Okay.
Let me have a look ๐
it seems like you've updated your session about 30 minutes ago.
I'm not quite sure what has changed or anything.
The new sessions data page should be out in the coming days, this will negate this issue. (Im honestly not sure what you update 30 minutes ago) :/
tried manually doing it
but its not in "edit session"
that actual widget
Didn't see a 105 anywhere
How much is the total suppose to be, because i see a number on my end, but not sure if accurate or not
Well something was changed, because even in the API i only see 105
by any chance, could you tell me when he changed PC?
Im curious to see if this is a factor, how many tips did he give from another PC? @next spruce
I'm going to guess the last 3 tips were from another computer.
is there a way to edit the default behavior of alertbox animation? Example, i add a new supertheme (or make my own) and it defaults to the fade in/out from top. I want to change them all to just fade in/out. Is there an easier way to do this than having to go to each category on the alert box in all 5 of the supertheme's and changing these?
