Did a little research and it looks like even if you're playing at 320kbps which is premium quality that's 2.4 MB per minute
You'd have to listen to 1,666 minutes of music at that rate for 4gb
almost 28 hours
The number of the devil 
It doesn't add up
Maybe
I had net limited good app but not free
I could limit download and just leave up
But still thanks. To tell you my story I have 280gb / month
And that data is for my streaming
Only; ๐
That's why I'm so paranoid about extra data
No other solution
What resolution do you stream at?
3500 is VERY low for 60fps
Twitch won't give more
As I tried it looked not so good with 30
Ok
Does ping have influence for the stream quality?
Hello there. I was wondering if there's a way to export points now? Or if it's possible to just take the API limitations so I can export them like that, since it's restricted to 1000 viewers and I have more. Thanks ๐
@serene nimbus I believe that would only affect delay
Most of my viewer s didn't complain about my stream quality so I thought it's good
Same tells twitch inspector
The easiest way to export points is by using the API. I don't know how that is done but if you post in #dev-chat someone should be able to assist
Thanks!
Its not restricted to 1000 people, just 1000 people at a time.
and 1000 is very generous :p
Good to know ๐
May i ask why you want to export? @arctic linden
I'm currently apart of a project related to loyalty system and I'd like to export my points
Is there a way to change the value or will always stay at 1000 at time?
Ok well thanks anyway ๐
is there a way to get currency from Wizebot to SE?
@narrow terrace If you can get the data into an excel spreadsheet or CSV we can import
Is there any issue with Streamelements tips? My alerts are there and active, and work when tested. But someone donated tonight and 1) it's not gone through on Streamelements, as in it doesn't show on the My tips page and 2) the alert didn't pop up (assuming because of #1)
Do you have tip moderation enabled in your tip settings?
Yes it's enabled
It's waiting in your activity feed
Tip moderation requires you to approve the alert before it shows
Pending Alerts
Turn it off and they'll go through immediately ๐
Or leave it on and remember to approve them ๐
Yeah
Yeah that's 0 on my page too
Well I've turned off tip moderation anyway
But still strange that the other tip didn't go through
Did you receive an email from Paypal?
how did the donator get to your SE tipping page?
I don't see it linked on your twitch
It's under Support Me
right, my bad
Maybe that should be clearer lul
i'm just tired ๐
we will look into this, please let us know if it happens again ๐
Thanks ๐
also, you can add the tip on your my tips page
make sure you mark it as an imported tip if you want it to trigger an alert
Ah ok thanks
So best way to require donations to be able to enter giveaway.... planning on a very large charity stream with lots of giveaways
@strong dock I think the way we discussed last night would be best. Super outragouse ticket cost, and for a donation to be able to purchase one
Lots points per min high points for tip
Yep thinking the same
I was in the stream earlier but at work so no sound. What did I miss? Moderator support?
Possible that SE can support the Clappyhype emote?
You mean the StreamElements channel being able to post it in Twitch?
If it's from a Partnered channel then the Partner needs to ask Partner Help to give the StreamElements channel a free sub to their channel, then it's done
@hiddnen [twitch.tv/hiddnen]#3851 so how are you giving the items out. Draw multi people from a single giveaway?
The 3 clappy emotes were made available to any account that created a clip during the week they were celebrating the first anniversary of twitch clips. https://blog.twitch.tv/clips-turns-1-this-week-celebrate-with-us-20136c7e2cff
Since StreamElements bot didn't make any clips during that week, it doesn't have access to those emotes.
Ahh, whoops 
guys i have a strange issue
i have a strange answer
for some reason my cheer, follow, subscribe etc all just activated in my obs for no reason
Did you do something on our site?
I was told a fix for that is coming.
the weird thing is there was no names on who followed, subbed etc
so creepy
#haunted
ok will do
thanks @serene granite
@serene granite will i need to restart obs or anything for the fix ?
I am working on creating my layout and getting it moved over from labs to elements, Redoing the whole thing. Im working on certian texts that are in the layout, Is there a page somewhere I can go, that shows me examples of all the fonts along withtheir names, that are available in the overlay editor of SE? Going through and changing the font one font at a time seems a little tidius in the editor itself. Thanks for thehelp!
So Every single google font is available in the SE editor?
all 820ish
That will work then! Thank you so much
No @sudden basin
Pardon me, how do I test my alerts for my overlays for Stream Elements?
bottom left had corner of the editor, there is a emulate event button
Oh, I see. So I basically don't even need Streamlabs anymore. The alerts come with the overlays. Neat.
Thank you very much for your assistance. @weary mist
๐
I had a dream where I was being chased by an enormous cheer cup, with the streamlabs logo on it. I went through a giant cave and at the end, there was a pedestal. Only the pedestal was empty, because SE doesn't have a cheer cup that can save me.
Please rewrite my nightmares, and bring me a cheer cup
<3
hahaha
hi, I have this thing where for some reason my newest donation/followers/latest subscribers keeps going to 0 or completely not there for some reason?
@ancient wigeon hahaha, best one yet 
@agile sundial This will be fixed soon
@clever mango Do you know how soon?
I do not
so, I just got my affiliate email today (squeeeee) and I'm kinda hoping to tighten up the branding on my channel a bit. I'd like to maybe start adding some things for people to do with loyalty points, but once I actually have subscriber emotes I'll want a bot that can actually use them...
is there an API for the loyalty system that can be plugged into by other bots?
Affiliates are unable to give free subscriptions so the bot would not be able to use sub emotes
As for the API question, I would ask in #dev-chat and someone there should be able to help out ๐
not a free subscription, no, but there are private bots where I could just pay the sub each month for the bot out of pocket
thanks though ๐
I apologize for any trouble, but I've added the "Kappagen" settings into my overlays. I selected a few emotes to use, but when I use the Event Emulator, it uses all of them. How do I fix that?
Did you save before testing?
Yes.
Indeed. Thank you.
No problem
just didn't want any of the other support champions thinking it was an ongoing problem still ๐


Vultures 
Is there a way to set up a "Follower Goal" similar to how you would in Stream Labs?
Question. I see people saying they use Spotify for music in their streams. Is it illegal to use the music without permission? I know YouTube is strict on the stuff how do we get away with it or allow it to our audience while streaming!
If you play copyrighted music during streams, the sections with that music will be muted in VODS
Of course there is, but i dont know what you mean but similar to SL @polar gorge
โคด
We have a widget that allows you to display follower goal ๐
LIve streams are unaffected by copyrighted music

@clever mango new screen comes in tomorrow so ill need help redoing or resetting my settings on obs if you have time tomorrow evening/night
Sure, I promise it will be MUCH easier than before ๐
we can only hope. this one is 16:9
@clever mango Is there any temporary fix for some of the widgets showing for a temporary amount of time? >__<
Guessing you mean Giveaway and Contest widget?
Sooooo I really like the Super Themes but is there a way to import the Same Alertbox settings to different overlays?
Not yet, but for now you can create an overlay with only the alertbox and use that in addition to your regular overlays
nopeee, just latest donation and newest follower widgetsss
@agile sundial Are you saying that those widgets only show for a temporary amount of time for you or you want to do that? Because to my knowledge they show permanently for everyone ๐ค
It shows for a temporary time! Like idk what triggers it, but after a while or so - the newest subscriber etc just vanish and it's just an empty box
That's really strange, I too use this widget and have done for many months without any issues, haven't had anybody else report this either
@agile sundial Tried remaking the widget?
As in deleting it and then making it fresh
How do i make sound effects work in stream
@lament blade You need to add sound effects to your Store Page for your users to be able to redeem, then you also need to add the Store Redemption widget to your overlay in the overlay manager
When you go to your Overlay Manager and you click on Widgets at the top it's the widget called Store Redemptions near the top under Stream Alerts
How can I put the points system in my direct?
i wants to know what kind of extension fun stuff we can expect
So I just click it and save?
Place it where you want and save, yes ๐ sound effects won't make an on-screen alert but the Stream Perks one will so place it where you won't mind an alert showing for store redemptions
@jaunty mist In your direct? I'm sorry I don't understand
@jaunty mist Do you mean this? https://streamelements.com/dashboard/loyalty
yes, thank you ๐
You're welcome ๐
So im in the overlays, and does the store redemption alert pop up for sound effects to?
Only for Stream Perks, other than that no alert
Sounds will only trigger sounds, there's no need for an alert for them
If you add Stream Perks as well as other items, they'll have alerts but only them
Do i have to make multiple overlays for different sound effects and pictures for stream perks or does it automatically change it
Only one is needed
ok
can multiple created overlays be activated at once or no
final question unless i find more problems with my stupidity
Yes, if you add the different overlays as browser sources in the same scene
There's no reason why you'd be recommended to try and use as few overlays as possible is that each browser source adds a bit more CPU usage, which is why we have the overlay manager to get everything into 1 browser source ๐
So someone sent 10K bits to me before I got streamelements.. can I add that in just in the activity and it will count as "top cheer"?
count towards top cheer, I should say
@thick eagle Try going here: https://streamelements.com/dashboard/session and editing the Top cheer data, then hit save changes
Well, It seems like on my imported overlay, the overlay isnt showing the full message, im not sure if its just the test messing up or if its Stream Elements
Remember that top cheer and top cheerer are different
Right, I am looking for all time top cheerer lol
@lament blade I believe the tests often have pretty long messages to test the maximum amount of characters somebody can have in an alert
Like, accumulated
Top cheerer is over a span of multiple cheers, top cheer is single occurrence
Right
So on my overlay I have all time top cheer currently.. but 10K bits of his was not when I had streamelements so it does not show up?
I want to add the 10K to his?
Did you do that at the link I gave you yet?
This is all for the "latest" stuff though
Click on Session Data
So when I expand the overlay to a huge blockage, itll show the full message, but if i want it to be the size I want, it wont show the message. It shows it well on the stream, but not on overlay.
O
I am having issues with creating my overlay and getting it to properly work in my OBS the way I set it up, Is there anyone available to help me out ? Im officially beyond the point of brain processes
Okay so there, type in the 50K that he has sent in total, correct? Or will that ADD 50K to his total? lol
@thick eagle o/
Oh hey there scalper ๐
@thick eagle Yep, should do ๐
ok cool โค โค
It's 3:26 AM here so Scalper or somebody else may need to take over 
Okay I did that

Awesome, once you click save that should be done
Did not change it on my overlay lol
Refreshed your overlay in OBS?
......
one sec
lol
yes
Still the same
it didn't change on my overlay in the editor
If you go to Aggregates in https://streamelements.com/dashboard/session who does it show in there as the top cheerer?
Should I quietly wait my turn? Or was my message just completely bypassed?
It shows him but 10K short lol
derp. I missed it
@oblique marsh what is the issue you are specifically running across
@oblique marsh I am also beyond the point of brain processes as it's 3:31 AM
sorry
If you are at a computer, I am actually mid stream right now, so I can legitimately show you exactly what my problem is
@oblique marsh what are you having issues with
I am streaming too, but I will check it out
I got it, I don't start for a while @weary mist
kk, thanks ic
Ok, one last question, about the importing
Is there a way to import only the Alert box from Strealabs and not the tips? (there were problems in the past and it took forever to get the tips all aligned up to the correct ammounts/people and i really dont want to risk anything to mess that up)
@tight harness I'll try doing that now! ty!
@oblique marsh yes, but at the same time, there have been updates to the tipping inport and mytips page since you last tried
@tight harness ๐
I'm half asleep so I don't remember what I suggested but you're welcome 
I actually ended up having to go in and create my own document to fix people (because they werent correct on stream labs either) and have a deb personally go in and put it into my account. So I really dont want it to touch my tips xD
haha
NP
but you should be able to select which you want to import (tips, alert box, or both)
A developer called Debbie 
She's a very nice lady
During the authorization it doesnt give me an option, and im afraid to hit approve yet, Is the step where i pick what is importated, after this step?
I personally haven't done it before fully but I do recall seeing tick boxes before when I had a look at the import tools recently out of curiosity, probably best for somebody who has more knowledge about them to answer
I shall wait ๐
imma going to test it
I did it all manually in the past, took me about a day but this was before the import tools were really a thing ๐
after you authorize, there is a option box you can pick what you want to import
Aha, just as I suspected ๐
deep breath ok, I shall go back then! I was way too scared to hit approve without a sure answer lol
Makes sense, best to be safe than sorry ๐
Hmm, ok so Its not showing up in my overlays, even though it said it was successful, is there a chance im doing something wrong?
๐
@thick eagle 
Lol my issue still remains..... ๐
best I can do is make a note, and poke a dev with the note until either he fixes it or gets a paper cut
then the lemon juice comes into play
Does anyone know how to have the bot PM a response instead of putting it in chat?
@finite viper you would have to make a custom command, but in the advanced options when creating the command, there is an option to make the bot whisper responses
awesome - thanks :D :D
No @weary mist the one legendary was helping me with.... and then someone else complained they were ignored so everyone jumped to them.... lol
@thick eagle I remember ๐ the not being able to change the cheerer value
.>
yeah
@weary mist I'm trying to have a module use my custom command (to whisper) but it seems to just be saying the text rather than executing the command. Any thoughts?
If it helps, I'm using the slots module.
The command does work when called from chat, but not when the bot says it in chat... or maybe it's PM'ing the bot?
hmmm
yeah - I probably need to pass the module variables to the custom command.... rip
@finite viper yeah, that isn't an option yet. ๐ฆ
so... I'm guessing there is no way to have a module whisper when people lose rather than blow up chat
folks just discovered the slots module is turned on in one of the streams that I'm modding - chaos :o
With enough people online at once, even a cooldown doesn't slow the spam :p
@thick eagle was it fixed?
no, it is something I am putting on the bug board
what is the issue exactly?
Not able to change top cheerer to account for cheers done before joining SE
i need to know what its suppose to be
I want to add an event basically. He cheered 10K bits before I moved to you guys
So want to show the total rather than just the amount he's cheered since I started using SE
@tight harness I still have a problem with the widgets (Latest Sub, Newest Donation, Newest Follower) temporarily appearing and disappearing once I close OBS - I tried the fix of removing them then re-adding to no avail 
when you close OBS?
ask away, someone will answer
trying to set up multiple scenes in OBS using my overlays on SE but the overlay urls are the same
shouldnt they be different
yes
you might be copying the same one, or not grabbing the right URL's
are you using a super theme, or custom themes
on each overlay, do the launch overlay button (red arrow), then copy each one individually
okay yeah got it
but now its changing both scenes to the one i just copied
got it
ty
@weary mist I'm back 

So just had someone donate after putting everything into play, Alert never popped up, and it still showes latest tipper as 0$
I checked my tips page, and his tip is there, so i know it went through SE
And the sound file is echo'ing on other alers that are working correctly
If sounds are echoing, make sure you have "shutdown source when not visible" checked for all your Alert BrowserSource
@oblique marsh you have tip moderation on.
What does that mean
tips from a month ago waiting to be approved
they need to be approved before being an alert
Sounds is fixed, (i might have also had multiple launch windows open cause im dumb)
but i also checkmarked the box you said to, just incase
Hope that helps ๐
I hope so too lmao, So far so good
now am I going to have to approve everything before it shows? or will it go along on its own now?
You can turn it off in Tipping Settings.
ok i see what i did
What i wanted was for the filter to use happy words instead of bad words, incase someone tried to tip with profanity
Is there a way to keep that, but not require them to be "approved"
Should still work without having tip moderation
ok i have both custom and standard profanity protection enabled. So even if I dont put in custom words, It will still grab all the basics that SE thinks is bad, correct?
i have not experimented with it, but should. Tell me if it doesn't.
lol, will do. I spose the next question is something I might let you know too but ill ask anyways. Even though I havent put in custom happy words, it should use its own idea of happy words?
I'm unsure 
lolol
Ok, odd question... is there a way to get the Data to stop removing the 0 at the end of the donation amount? So that $4.20 doesnt read as $4.2 ?
I tried going in and manually adding the 0, and saving, and it took it right back off
@stuck hamlet is tipping moderation available for mods now?
Did I miss this somehow?
Not that it matters... because when you decline a tip in SE it shows on screen anyways ๐ค
I have that second part added to the bug list, not sure if it has been addressed yet. But dashboard access for moderators is in process
second part being my 0?
Mods have never been able to go in to moderate tips? lol?
I remember asking waaaaay back when I turned it on and was told it was in development
I know
I mean my MODS can't moderate lol
๐
is the a feature to track who has lost the most points gambling?
sigh I am back T.T
@regal iris not yet
@weary mist k thanks
Ok there is a Widget, Its a Combo Goal Sub widget, Well when going into its combo settings, it has 3 sizes, 1 2 and 3, But no matter what I change that size too, it stays the same one size in the actual overlay
I made it at its smallest, and it stays large, i made it larger and saved, and no change.
@weary mist Any suggestions?
aside from my need to be less annoying T.T
โค In that case, i shall go to the lil blood elves room
@thick eagle alert should still trigger but be annonumous on stream with no message
is that whats happening
Mhm, but it doesnt actually change it in the broadcasted overlay
i can show you in my stream what I mean
What's the point in the decline if it's going to show on stream anyways? ๐
I don't remember if the message showed
I just had 2 people follow me, one followed 8 minutes ago and the other was 3 minutes ago and they've only just popped up in my activity feed/alert/bot message, both at the same time. is it normal for alerts to be so heavily delayed and then come through in bulk?
I cant tell you whats wrong, But I can say its not normal, mine are fairly instant.
hopefully just congestion or something
could be a multitude of things. Could be congestion from our end, could be from twitch end, or some magic

Dont forget me! how do I fix my charge meter D=
when you changed it, did you hit save on the overlay?
Mhm, I saved it as small and medium and large too
but the one in the broadcast never changed once
ok, do the save, then go into your browser source setting, and hit the refresh cache
Nope, didnt work
Its still at the largest setting, and i need it to be on the smallest. (it started at the largest, even though from the beggining I put the setting to the smallest)
@thick eagle because you decline the message and such, if you dont want them to show on stream as annonymous withouth a message, just accept/decline after stream
ez fix 
I need an easy fix too, come save me again
strumming myself, cant fix everything 
I mean, yeah that is obviously a thing but it's deceiving when there's a decline option and you click it only to have it pop up anyway ๐
Does the message and name pop up, or just the name and ammount?
Unless I am misunderstanding whats going on. The moderation is for the message they write in for their donation. Declining should remove what they write, but it would still show that theydonate and how much
Yea, so it would still pop up, just wont have the message that was written with the donation.
Or am I misunderstanding what you mean @thick eagle ?
she just doesnt want it to show at al
Remove donation alert then, =p
only when declining :p
Yea, I get that, I also get thats not possible. Its not about declining the donatoin its about declining the message.
Not going to remove donation alert entirely just because someone donates now and then that I don't want to show... ๐ That's just silly.
Why would you want someones donations to not show?
I have had someone harass me via donations and i'd rather not have any of his donations show on my screen. Name or messages
Maybe put in a request to be able to block specific people from donating
It's not that easy when they make new accounts.
How much does he donate with? Maybe up the alerts to a higher ammount?
<-- cant spell
It varies. I switched to stream elements in general because of his donations because they had the opportunity to moderate tips. I don't want to ruin it for everyone else because one guy decides to be a douchebag
Well, the moderation takes out the message and changes the name to anonymous, so people wont know its him.
Anything more then that would require it affecting others too, unfortunetly ๐ฆ
It didn't make it anonymous
It still shows who donates
If it made it anonymous I wouldn't care
Ah, ok the problem is uncovered, Onslaught?
You can just ignore them until you're done streaming, or request blocking paypal emails/removing them entirely when declining
Yeah, I mean I know that is an option. I'm just saying in general, it's a little deceiving going in to "decline" and still it pops up. For others maybe also, if they need to do the same.
hi i need help
um
idk how to describe
ok so im in advanced settings for subs?
like setting up the alert
ill ss
so i set the image/gif as this and put the sound there aswell
i saved
but everything i 'emulate sub alert'
it comes up with the default photo
/gif of the shark?
ive saved it a million times it wont work, idk if i have missed something
check variation settings ๐
๐
โค the variations will show up on subs and cheers I believe by default
not sure what to search for this, but on leaderboards for hours I still show up as 1st, even though I'm ignored in the loyalty settings, can I ignore users (esp bots) on other lists like time in stream?
i have another question dad @weary mist
wtf man
i setrup the kappagen thing
i put the browser source on my obs
and it comes out like this
wtfewrgnjklerhnkerlh
but on streamele it is normal
@jade ocean did you check resolution of browser source in OBS
What should it be set to?
o.o
Does anyone know if SE has a way to creat a giveaway that doesnt use my loyalty currency?
Is there a way to make the kappagens go under my sub alert
yeah
on left side you see panel and under Layers
just use arrow and move kappagen under the alerts
Hi there, is there a way to edit the response from StreamElements when a song request is made?
๐
๐๐ต๐
โ
how long does it take for the total follower and total sub numbers to sync once your live?
depending on how fast the twitch api is
about 5 minutes
or you can refresh before going live
i've been live for 32 minutes
whats not updating
they are higher total followers by 2 and total subs by 2
have you tried refreshing your stats?
how?
one sec
nope it didn't do anything none of the aggregates are the total follower or sub counts anyway
so reset session in totals?
ye
got it
Will report it not updating tho
okay thank you
@serene granite was the fix dispatched yesterday for that issue i mentioned ?
Which @sudden basin ?
Hi guys, just wondering, can gamewisp subs get double loyalty points too?
Unfortunately it is impossible for us to fetch that list
ok, thank you ๐
Hello I am using gif alerts for my notifications and notice there is a problem. I'm using a gif like a video so I want the sound and gif to always start from the beginning so it can match up. However after the first alert the gif just plays at a random time never matching up with the sound I have playing. One solution I found was after the 1st alert goes off I gotta go to my scene in OBS and double click on my browersource and hit ok and then the next alert will be in sync again.
@pliant ledge I believe we're aware of this, haven't heard anything about it in a while though ๐ค
@stuck hamlet the issue where my cheer, follow, subscribe etc all activated in my obs for no reason.
@serene granite said
"fix coming extremely soon
won't happen again
(let us know here if it does)"
just curious is the fix was dispatched ?
@tight harness Thanks a lot glad you guys are aware. Videos work perfectly just wish the Stream elements store allowed videos 
I dont mean to look stupid here im messing around with StreamElements, but is there a way to change the bot name ? or does it have to be Streamelements ?
It has to be StreamElements for now ๐
hmmmm will you beable to change in the future or ? As it seems to have the functions i want but dont want it named Streamelements dont mean that in a bad way ofc
Has anyone ever complained about the dashboard, navigating around the different areas (contests, giveaways, the two I use the most personally) lagging and being a bit unresponsive at times?
I've noticed that it can get pretty bag
I am using Chrome, not sure if that makes a difference
Just seems like the performance is lacking
@dusk wind Well as it's a free bot it's good to have a bit of marketing, it's been mentioned before as a possibility in the future ๐
@untold estuary I don't believe so, Chrome is the best for using our website, we actively recommend using Chrome
@tight harness yeah i get it its cool and most bots are free just saying ๐ Just saying urs is good but content creators like changing there names to something they like, thats all ๐ I just thought id throw the question out there thats all ^^
@tight harness has anyone ever complained about this?
Is the dashboard areas using HTML5?
@untold estuary I don't remember anybody complaining about it personally in the 6 months i've been here, but I know it's being redesigned currently anyway
@dusk wind A lot of bots may be free currently but a lot of them are becoming pay to use certain features currently or in the foreseeable future. However, we have no such desire to go down that path
Are SE.Champions like staff that help the community ? Noticed Dasmehdi is there so im curious ^^
@tight harness I see, well maybe the new one getting created will be better. Any ETA on when that will be done?
We all help out in some way or another, some of us work for SE to some capacity, I myself work for SE as Support and a Bot Admin
@untold estuary I'm not aware, it's a lot of work ๐
ok cool good stuff well thanks for talking.
No problem at all ๐
Someone who can help me?
@proven dagger What do you need help with? you're best off just telling us the problem straight away
@untold estuary it is HTML5 and it's made using angularJS. I haven't experienced any lag/unresponsiveness in 6 months either. Might be on your end
@untold estuary I have the same problem - I'm browsing StreamElements with Chrome, but on a Mac - maybe that makes a difference? Browsing on Windows seems way faster and snappier.
@crude mist maybe. browsers should have the same behaviour on different platforms, but who knows
They should, but you know how it goes... ๐ @silk patrol
i cant launch my overlay
@unique orchid what do you mean by can't launch it? have you added anything on your overlay? does a new tab opens when you click the launch button?
when i click launch it opens a new tab but after a few seconds of loading the new tab it's just a white page
that's normal, just copy the link in that new tab and use it as a browser source in obs. if you don't add anything to an overlay, you won't see anything 
okayy ๐
an empty overlay is just a transparent canvas in order to overlay it on your game in obs. if you add an image like a top or bottom bar, you'll see it
but i#m trying to stream on my ps4
not possible, you have to capture the output of your ps4 to a computer. Sony doesn't provide a way to add overlays natively on your stream
better start saving to buy a streaming/gaming PC lol
Get saving those pennies 
i would but my knowledge on computers is below 0%
Almost all computers with at least an i5 and 8gb of ram will be able to stream from OBS with static overlays on top of gameplay
You can buy a pre-built
and a capture card
but what do i need to run for example r6 siege or fallout4?
@clever mango depends on the game of course, try streaming pubg with an i5 lol
He's playing ps4
@unique orchid I thought you were looking for a streaming PC to stream your PS4
Are you wanting to switch to PC gaming?
yep, but better ditch that ps4 for a real gaming PC #PCMasterRace jk
Is there a way to export points from StreamElements?
i mean alone for pubg or dayz id get one but right now i have 120 euros XD
Well then get an i7 8+ gb ram and at least a gtx 1060
@crystal turret not throught the website, but if you are familiar with api call then yes
Hmm, I am not. Thats unfortunate.
@unique orchid $800-$1000 for a decent gaming/streaming PC
โคด
you can build a gaming PC for $500, but you won't be able to stream with it
not at a good quality at least
Like any person i know that plays on Pc told me that prebuilt pc's are trash and that i need to build one myself
They're not trash, just more expensive to do it that way
^
Yep, most pre built are trash, and barely upgradable
that's a CPU, the brain of a PC
linus tech tips
quick question does anyone know the command so users can request songs with a youtube link , so they can just use the song name / title
@hot finch you can only use yt links, title/artist search has been disabled because of YT API limitations. We are talking with YT to get it back
Video ID will also work. The part after the / in the URL
yea just a pain for users to keep having to load yt up for a song to play, thats ok ill stick with my original bot for song requests for now . thank you for letting me know
Should hopefully be a thing in the future, we just need YT to do their part and raise the limit ๐
Can StreamElements be used with Youtube Gaming?
Soonโข
Thnx!
@sudden basin should be fixed yes.
ok what should I do if there is no overlay?
@serene nimbus what do you mean by no overlay? if you see a white screen when lauching your overlay that's normal. and overlay is a transparent canvas
like I dont get my overlay from stream elements
thats a 2x time only first time it came back in like 10mins...
you have to be more precise here. where can't you see it? on the website? in OBS?
have you added a browsersource with your overlay link?
add/browsersource/added streamelement link for overlay and thats all...
maybe voice chat?
what do you have on your overlay? if you only have an alertbox for example, you won't see a thing unless you have an alert coming in. have you used the overlay link when you clicked launch overlay? I can go in voice chat, but I can't talk ๐
I have been using stream elements for more than a week with no problems...
just testing the Shutdown source when not visible, everithing else as inthe readme...
try to delete your browsersource, launch the overlay on the website and a browsersource with that overlay link
does the link change from time to time?
nope, but maybe OBS had a brain fart
omg I dont like that ๐
nop...
damn... I really like elements ๐ญ
looks like I need to have backup overlay offline...
that's an odd issue. i've been using the same overlay in 6 months with any issue
do you know where the steream elements server is located?
I have a fealing that my ISP have something to do with it...
unfortunately no
Definitely feel like your ISP is at fault here.
๐
and like nothing ever happend
OBS - does anyone tried to make a random PIC on scene transitions? If yes share please how ๐
my layouts are bugged
How so?
no overlays from stream elements?
I wanted to edit them and I see only alertbox on screen but in the left corner all the layers are still there
@spare geyser Is this a custom overlay or are you using a theme?
theme
Did you edit the size of the overlay?
yes
What is the difference between "Win message" and "Points won messgae" in the Duel module settings?
But you can scale them in OBS when you send to twitch
btw the super themes are really difficult for my processor
Animated?
yes
What are your hardware specs?
I will send you a list
@white lintel After the duel, the win message is said first followed by the points won message
Oh, thanks
cant find the list but Intel core i5 7500/ 8gb ram/ 120gb ssd + 1TB
and my videocard is 4gb
While you're gaming, your CPU has to render, encode, and stream the animated overlay
@weary mist how can I do that?
i5 will have a hard time with animated overlays
The option is under properties if you wanted to test it either way
Yup it's checked for you. Make sure it is for all the other scenes and you can probably make it 30 fps and look fine
:)
Yeah, it helps to not have all the overlays loasmded at once
Even my i7 lags up with 5-9 of those running, lol
I played with stream elements month ago and couldn't get it to do what I wanted, so maybe now something has changed. I need the ability to allow chatters to type "!message here is my dumbass message" and have "here is my dumbass message" appear on screen and consumer a small portion of currency
If there is a tutorial on how to do this specific thing I will watch it. But since Revlo shut down, I havent been able to find a bot with currency and overlays that allowed for messages to be pulled from chat and placed on screen.
Hey guys I'm moving further on my way to discovering the endless possibilities of SE. I wanted to have different BrowserSources for different scenes, which surely should be possible right? But when I try to simulate an event the sound of BOTH Sources triggers.. :l I only see the one of the correct scene but im hearing both - did I break it? Wat do 
@humble rain This is not possible at this time. If you haven't already, I recommend adding this idea to #๐ญ๏ธฑfeedback-and-ideas. Thanks!
@lament blade Check the image I posted a few messages up. You want to make sure that all browser sources in OBS have the Shutdown source when not visible CHECKED
Thank you!
Pardon me, my League overlay when I'm in-game lags my stream really badly. What sort of adjustments would I have to do to try and fix it?
How many browser sources have you added to OBS? Are you using animated overlays?
I have the one browser source. It's animated overlays.
Quick question: Is it possible to allow mods/super mods to log into your Stream Elements? Can't seem to find the option
My computer specs?
@quasi portal Not yet. It will be available ASAP
Awesome, cheers Terra ๐
Yes, @polar gorge
Silly question, where do I find that? XD
Any reaason why the bot would not have logged a host during a stream?
@polar gorge open start menu and type "system information"
take a screenshot of the window that pops up and send it to me in a DM
@narrow terrace could be due to settings, autohost, host size, etc
I use chatty app for twitch chat, and that tells me if the host is a real host or an autohost
Hosts always pop an alert for me, auto hosts are iffy
I know this person and her channel. it showed up in StreamLabs and my other bot, just not SE
And you are 100% sure it wasn't an autohost?
Ok
it was pretty cool
That's good
(as a small streamer I get excited over these things lol)
Lmao, I'm right there with you, #helpdesk-twitchsmallstreamers
^
Did the host show up in your activity feed at all?
Do you have a time stamp of the host?
only that it was 12h ago lol
Ok
Hello its me again asking annoying questions :U I wanted to do a fancy Overlay with my own Alertbox and some other stuff I have in my original scene but ALSO the super theme parts and I was wondering if there was a way to move these 4 images to another overlay >_> https://i.gyazo.com/29a63507e3d657ba55100a6af3a87d1c.png
Kinda, but it will be tedious for the momebt
You can duplicate an overlay, and just remove all the parts you don't want
like I did in the screen
@stuck hamlet sorry for the late reply but thanks for replying to me & i can confirm that so far ๐
haha
yh i will do
i always like to help so if anymore issues arrise i will give you a shout
Thank bud!
when typing !points, is it possible for the leaderboard component (user is 5/1000) or whatever, to be all time and not current?
Yes, you would need to make a custom command and use variable ${user.points_alltime_rank}
disable the default if you do
oh man, me changing stuff, this should be interesting ๐
Here are all of the variables https://streamelements.com/dashboard/bot/commands/variables
You can build custom commands using them
@narrow terrace Good luck 
Monday the StreamElements version of BitBoss is launched in the Overlay creator, right? I want to be in on that the second it's available


Pardon for my consistent need of help, with my alertbox, after the tip/follower/etc. shows and goes, the text remains on the screen for some reason. How do I fix that?
There's a setting for alert duration
It's set to 10 seconds.
I want to reset leaderboard all begining of months. It is posible or I have to do it manually?
@polar gorge You're referring to the editor overlay
You get 4 helps a week @polar gorge
next question is going to cost you!
It won't remain in OBS
It fades out in the editor but doesn't disappear
@proven dagger only manually
thanks for the help @clever mango I got it. Would LOVE to be able to change the all time numbers as this would allow me to pick up where I left off with other bot!
can someone explain to me what the new feature Widget Data is/does
It's basically where all of your stats like latest follower, latest sub, latest tipper, top tipper, etc is all located
The blog post explains it pretty well, did you read that?
heya - when trying to change follower alert gif and video it isnt saving - anyone know how to fix this please?
gif and sound sorry
quick question (just tell me when I'm asking too many!) How do the timer messages work. For example, you have 10 messages, each set to 15 minutes...they aren't just going to all spam at once will they? How do they spread themselves out? OR, just point me in the direction to find the answer myself ๐
@blazing briar Have you checked if there's any other variations of the alert that you haven't changed yet?
ahh yes thats right the variations - thank you
No problem ๐
now i just have to remember where they were haha
@narrow terrace I'll DM you my settings to give you an idea of what works
@tight harness from memory last time i did this, was there somewhere that i had to go into to take a variable out - i remember having to do something like this?
@blazing briar When you click on the alert box in overlay manager you'll see Variation Settings on the left, click on that and you'll see something like this: https://gyazo.com/f8623e5433bf0018bc537d56ad0d2263
You can change or remove them variations however you want, but if you leave them as default they'll stay default
@tight harness ah ok thanks
No problem ๐
If i am working in the overlay editor and i accidently delete a image from the overlay how do i bring it back?
Just checking in, it's been a while since I reported the "Recent Tips" ticker overlay not functioning. atm.js is still a 404 (someone deleted, moved, or renamed the file) and I'm still seeing a "too many requests" error on sentry.io/api/ Any update on this?
@wind nymph A pre-made overlay? If so, you can't without remaking it from scratch. If it's your own overlay that you added then you need to add the image again from your files
son of a gun thanks
Yah I think I am having the same issue as @trim cloud regarding Top tip and recent info not being pulled and presented in the overlay. Any idea when this will be addressed? Thanks in advance for your response
@trim cloud @abstract basin I'm currently asking if there's any update, just waiting for a reply
No worries! Thanks for the quick reply
@proud pumice hey on my top donators i have the same person twice. the amounts are correct, they just need to be combined
Is there an option to show how many people are watching my stream via twitch? When can we expect alerts for YT?
You can make a bot timer variable, and no ETA @austere oasis
@tight harness thanks, appreciate it! ๐
Hey @dense quail so you have 2 donations from 1 guy not adding up?
What widget are you using?
What could be the issue if my alertbox wont play a sound for subscribers, even if I've uploaded a file
Works fine for my follow alert
@dry prawn Have you checked the variations?

only because we ourselves have been in that position
we spread the knowledge that our own stupidity hath given us
Is there gonna be TTS for donations eventually?
There already are
there already is @SlyRatchet#5476
look, now i'm giving knowledge
oh... where do I activate it? I don't see it
it is in the overlay editor, under the tip alert settings
oh right, thanks.
How do I update my email address? So my stats email got to the right place?
Hi there! Not sure if you did but did you reply to the issue I was previously having @tight harness with the widget labels?
@agile sundial When was this? I've slept since then ๐
@viscid steppe we use the email you have with twitch. So change your email with twitch, then log out and log back in
Haha, not sure where you're from but a couple of hours ago xD Anyways just to go back in time, I had a problem with the widget labels staying on stream as they end up suddenly disappearing after some time
Not sure if this would help but someone subscribed to me yesturday and it didn't come up on my activity feed
but when I look on streamlabs, I see that it's there
Ahh nevermind I fixed it by editing the Widget Data! Think that will work for now, ty!
but one last last last last thing, for recent subscribers in the widget data, is it supposed to be unchangeable?
not yet sure if it is ment to be that way, but at this time I believe you can't add anyone, but you should be able to remove people

Is there an option to turn off showing the chat and emote stats for a streamer on the streamelements page?
@weary mist ahh wonderful thank you soo much!
you saw n o t h i n g

how do I get my chat to work? I dont think I did the pre flight check list right ?
video didnt help with my problem
Your chat to work? I'm a bit confused what you mean by that
I see the bot is in your chat and it's modded, it also replied when you did !ping
Streaming right now, the latest follower and latest tipper wont show up at all. It just wont show at all
Try re-adding the widgets, as in deleting them then adding them from scratch, I just added them to my own overlay and they worked perfectly fine
Okay ๐
๐
Thanks ๐
So is there a spotify current song for overlays or am I SOL?
Not yet
What seems to be the problem?
I tested a bit around with Stream Elements today and wanted to do more when I had the time to set things up. For tonight's stream I was using streamlabs, but for the first time ever I did not get notifications for hosts and it doesn't show in my streamlabs history either. Is there any chance these 2 programmes interfere with each other?
By notifications do you mean on-stream alerts or on the website on your recent events? Or both?
Both
Interesting, I know there's no issues with host alerts or host events in recent events because I had both of these working just fine today ๐ค strange that they're not showing on either for you
when I click test alert on the streamlabs website I still get it on stream though, which makes me think the alrt signal might be misdirected somehow if that makes any chance?
It's like between OBS and the website not the other way around
If you emulate a host event in our Overlay Manager do you see it alright?
I don't know how to access this page yet. Tbh streamelements looks very promising and i wanted to look into it more this weekend when I have more time but for now I'd like to fix the problem that it somehow interferes with my streamlabs signal :/
I don't know this for sure but it seems like a big coincidence that I tried to set up stream elements today and then encounter this problem with streamlabs for the first time
Is there any chance twitch is sending the signal to the wrong output?
There's actually no reason for them to interfere with each other, all they're doing is processing the data that you're being hosted and then doing their own thing with it, there's no way for them to interfere with each other
If both are active then both should be responding in their individual way simultaneously, it's possible SE isn't responding because you haven't set that up yet, whether SL works or not is down to them, nothing to do with SE ๐
Twitch does not SEND a signal, companies need to ask for the information.
okay makes sense. im a real tech rookie haha :p
I will try to fix this another way then. Who knows, might be gone by tomorrow
thanks for the help
No problem ๐ glad we could clear that up for you
hey folks !! any news on your Youtube progress ? i heard you are planning on intergating youtube on stream elements ?
Integrating youtube on StreamElements? Do you mean to do with song requests or do you mean the other way as in StreamElements on Youtube Gaming?
Hey Guys. Having Issues making my Overlay and transfering it to OBS. I stream at 540p 30 but native scale in OBS is at 720p (Monitor is 1080p). I tested The Alerts and it is cut off with the Event List.
The default size for our overlays are 1920x1080. So unless you downscaled it, you'll have to set your browser source to 1920x1080, and then make it smaller ๐
Figured it Out Had it set to 800x600 on the OBS Overlay Settings and changed it to 720p.
how do i put the overlay on my stream?
@heavy flax the overlay has to be added as a browser source in the broadcasting software of your choice
Is there an option for a cheer cup in SE?
Soonโข ๐
is there a way to create an command alias via command prompt? last time i asked i was told it's on the to-do list.
Where can I edit the message again that will pop up in chat when someone like follows and such?
any update on when supermods have dashboard access?
It's a very high priority right now but there isn't an ETA
hm, ok. thanks.
ty
Thank you for the email help! @weary mist
๐
i currently have a command: !kill It makes it so someone can !kill person (vltrykin kills bob) I'm wondering if there is a way to add something on the end to make it so that someone can do this: !kill bobby with a fork (vltrykin kills bobby with a fork) im wanting the target/person im metaphorically killing to be separate from the object being used to kill. Is there any way to do this?
yes
!cmd add kill ${sender} kills {1} with {2:}
then !kill kltryking with a fork
would spit out
ok sweet
Lord_scalper kills kltryking with with a fork 
you can include the with if you want or not
is there a thing in stream elements that can make it so someone would !song (name)" and it records them somewhere?
for a creative streamer kind of thing
@hazy flint There is not at this time
๐
you should do a store redemptions
it would record the song that the person requests on the store redempsions page
@hazy flint
Ah yes derp
Now if only LUL was added to the global twitch emotes stats. ๐ค
the kill command worked, just needed to add $ to the 1 and 2 things :p
@weary mist If we wanted to make the object in the !kill command a multiple word response would that be possible?
@clever mango that is what the ${2:} does
the colon specifically?
yes
Oh cool
hi there! was wondering if StreamElements had a shoutout command for when you'd like to shoutout a streamer for example?
Yep, if you add a custom command there is a shoutout template
That is super awesome, thanks alot dude!
well yeah don't appear in the overlay at all
the drop down reverts back to roboto in the alert box widget
but in the text widget the selection sticks, but the font is still roboto
Yep, from my understanding it's the same as me
Just refresh the overlay on OBS
and it should bring the true font on there
hmm can't get it to work
@tender mango try saving, closing and reopening the editor
I've tried that, still no dice
I can force it through the css in obs, but it's not ideal
Which font?
There was a known bug with "Press Start 2P" and a few others. It might still be ongoing. I'll check
hey fam, I have a question. I am trying to add a API to stream elements because im doing a Charity Stream Tomorrow for an orphanage in Houston tomorrow. is there a way to do that?
can you explain more wha tyou are doing? Are you talking about an external api?
@white fossil
yes, so I am trying to get alerts when money is donated to the charity
tiltify has its own api to use @weary mist
Depends how their API is built. ๐ค
??
Are you looking for on screen alerts?
yes
Unfortunately impossible at this time
But depending how their API is built, you could build a timer every 5 minutes letting you know how much has been raised so far
๐ค
hmm ok
hi
Hello
Como estas mi amigo
:3
When setting up a points system, how do you actually give points to someone? When I was testing it in twitch chat it told me I didn't have any points...
!bonus <username> <number> will just give them points from the endless pool we have stocked here
Oh right
Thanks
So the points system works more for the things already setup, and saying !givepoints won't work unless you are giving out of your own pocket?
yes
Cheers
there are two commands to give points
one from user to user
one from the mystical beyond
Ok makes sense, thanks!
Hey guys, I have recently started using stream elements and it's great I was previously using Muxy for my alerts and what I am having trouble with is having SE know what those donations were so the top donator widget displays the correct person.
any idea what I can do?
- I tried manually entering a donation in the hope it would work like that but no change.
Top Tipper
So the one that combines all donations from that person and the person who has donated the most gets displayed.
ok, are you looking for session, weekly, monthly, or all time
All time
try this out for me. Go to Data, then click the Aggregates tab. Try and refresh those for me
hmm, did you add any of those tips?
I added 1 manually to test it and it is still there. after the refresh no change.
The $50 donation is the one I put in. The other 2 were proper donations/.
when you added it, did you mark it as an import?
Nope?
try that out, not sure if it makes a difference, but it does pop an alert
Where do I mark it as an import?
errr I see it sorry. No rush
I can go Import > Other and then I need to choose one of the options.
Muxy isn't in there.
When you add a tip, there is a check box to mark it as an import, which will pop an alert, and have it count toward leaderboard
omg how did i not see that... ๐คฆ
Ok sorted, thanks heaps man ๐ I should have gone to specsavers before asking you.
haha, you are all good ๐
we are here to help make you the best streamer possible ๐
๐
I was wondering how does stream elements make money?
Can I ask that just seems wierd that something this good is free.
lol
we have several venture capitalists funding us, we have enough money for a couple years of free service. But before that time, we have plans for monitization. everything that is currently available will be free for ever
@fierce sun
anyone who knows how to add "giveaway winner name" in a scene? can't seem to find it in the widgets or data when you create a new "overlay" on the site
