Yes I know how dumb england is for their pricing as well, just as bad as us, we're an english colony so that is where we get our dumb ass pricing from
You're welcome 
@swift parcel I'm am a retard so I will probably screw this up but thanks heaps!
If anything just DM me if you need some setup help
It was removed?
shouldnt be?

oh you're trying to open it up on your computer
right click and edit it from your downloads folder
in between the " " quotes where it says "SeOverlay Here" aka replace SE Overlay Here with the url
Ah yes okay just double checking thanks heaps!
I seem to be having this problem where tips dont show up in my acticity feed or alertbox. The box is checked and other alerts such as host are alerted but not tips
bad brain no autocorrect
In fact tips aren't being tracked at all recently
how long have you been using streamelements?
just recently added and been using something else?
Nearly a month now
The bot is picking them up apparently https://gyazo.com/51caa653c2a65fb3dc70eee2d91d6cf2
Is there a way I can rename each one so I know what overlay each one is?
The pencil next to the names should allow you to edit the names.
@spring cosmos Are you combining all of the rocket league overlays?
@spring cosmos just making sure you're not putting different scene overlays into that one? its all the browser sources for that one scene
from that screenshot you sent earlier?
yeah if you need to manually turn off any of them because they're an AFK screen or a different scene gotta leave those out
yeah
sorry if I misunderstood ya
Okay so I have to leave out intermissions/BRB's, stream ends and starts?
yes
Then does having this AIO make a difference?
LadyMatrix's tool is for combining overlays that go together and will be displayed at the same time
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOH
I meant I need one that puts all of my overlays into a single place so that I can switch between them so my cpu doesn't get fried
You're taking AIO too far 😃
No no no it is fine! My fault I misunderstood!
This is all widgets, labels, etc in one overlay 😃
but you still have different overlays for different scenes
So what does this mean? I must have misunderstood it
OH JOKES
I read it my bad ahahah
It means that with other services, there is a browser source for alert box, one for cup, one for tip goal, one for recent donations, etc..
With StreamElements all of those are combined using the editor into one browser source
No problem @spring cosmos
Glad you got it figured out
@thick zealot edit your overlay and go into Data on the top area of the overlay editor
er wait
waiting
Still didn't help with all those tips, guess I'm not streaming 😦
@thick zealot you just need to edit the goal of how many you would like to reach? Or do you need to reset how many have already followed towards that goal?
i have 110 followers and 4 subs, id like it so that it shows 110/120 and auto updates when i get a new follower to 111/120
You have them already created so just go into the properties of each one @spring cosmos
But I have them all set up already?
And you did add the follower goal widget from widgets
@swift parcel ye
They are shutting down when not visible @spring cosmos ?
No
So every one is running at the same time
I am not streaming because of my CPU usage
click on the widget from the layers area and on the left it'll have "goal amount"
@swift parcel , voice support?
@thick zealot
ty
no problem
Does anyone else get that bug where sometimes your display capture doesn't show up until you click 3 or 4 hundred times
@tight harness how do I edit my overlay on streamelements ?
Does SE have the ability to let you run multiple commands at once from one single command?
Like if I had a !command01 and !command02 command, it there a way to make a !command03 that runs the first two at once?
Display capture? No. Sometimes issues with Game Capture.
No Display Capture that is what I am using
Thanks so much that actually helped heaps!! My chances of streaming are great again!
@atomic ridge the bot cannot trigger itself
Boo. Ok. Thanks for the quick response!
That would be dangerous because of possibility of looping command/response and then global ban
I can see the issue that could cause. I can also see the cool things you could build with it. Fair enough! Do you know if Store Items can trigger commands?
Anything the bot posts cannot trigger a command. So as long as the bot is not posting the trigger, it will work.
Unless you're partnered, I would not stream 1080p
I stream 1080p60 / 6000kbps. I'm affiliated, but still.
Just out of the blue, but is there a way in the bot to trim the length of an audio file that I want to use for an alert? I uploaded an alert audio but it’s a three minute long song that I just wanted to use a little part of. Depart I want is the very beginning of the song so I didn’t find any way to clip it however, even though I have the alert duration set to 12 seconds, it’s still plays the entire song long after the alert is gone.
is there any way to get the browser source from SE to load faster when switching scenes?
@swift parcel ah ok. Will do 😃
make sure you don't overwrite the song and save it as a seperate file
For 4500 bitrate, I'd do 1080p30 or 720p60.
I do 720p60 with 2200 br
It’s fine
I might be able to push it to 2500 but I only use a single PC so no sense in killing my hardware
Stream might be ok, but I'd be surprised if their isn't quite a bit of pixelation during fast action scenes etc.
bitrate does nothing to cpu usage fyi. its just what you're encoding
1080p60 works the cpu more than 720p60
I don’t seem to notice any pics relations. If I try to raise it up more than 3000 though I keep getting complaints of people getting nothing but buffering
err. Pixelation
What is your ISP's upload speed limit on your plan?
I’ll give it a shot see what happens what’s the worst thing that can happen right?
Oh my upload hovers around 90 Mbps
views have to be able to view it tho
But. Not partnered
and the bit rate is what affects them
Are you an affiliate
cuda you literally have your finger in every pie where twitch is involved o_o
if you get transcoding as a affiliate (which you have priority to if theres space) people can lower it if they dont have the bandwidth
I rarely get quality options for my affiliate account. Usually it's source only.
2200 is low for a 720p60 if you're playing hit movement games
Most of the time I get it but sometimes I don’t and the only way to know is after you go live
Sometimes I see quality options in my stream.
its better to have slightly worse quality and have viewers than great quility and a stream that no one can watch
it all depends on time you stream, and game
https://stream.twitch.tv/ <-- some other specifications per stream quality want
@edgy geyser something like that
Yeah, the stream site shows that the limits for ingestion are higher in general now... not that 3500 everyone keeps referring to everywhere.
I’m not sure if I can change my bit rate on the fly without ending the stream. I’ll have to check
yes you can
you can if you're using cpu encoding
shinyou have to end it
not with gpu
If with OBS, you have to stop streaming first.
^^
Guess I’m lucky then. CUse I don’t use obs
I use Quicksync H264 on quality mode.
I’ve gone back and fourth between h264 and nivec. It depends on the game some games one works better than the other it just all depends. Some games are more CPU bound than others
It also depends on the quality settings.
I don’t have a horrible CPU but again I don’t have a dedicated stream PC either yet
Not sure if nivec has quality / balanced / speed options
It does but setting it on auto works
I'd probably go balanced then and see how it goes, then adjust future streams based on the playback.
I have been thinking about trying opiate studio because I hear it’s gotten better over the years. The thing is I just renewed my license for x split
So I’ll give it until the license runs out and then switch over if I have to
With my old PC, I had to use the software that game with my capture device. With the new PC I got, I went to OBS Studio. Was a bit of a learning curve, but seems to work nicely.
And I have xsplit set to quality I believe. I’m a sucker for eye candy lol
It’s ultra or nothing
Yeah i dont know anything related to xsplit anymore
Is there anything xsplit does that OBS doesn't do?
allows you to control audio volume of the browser source
thats the only one real thing that xsplit does that obs doesnt do
When I got into it I started street from the PS4 so when I built my PC I didn’t know Abe from Adam about this stuff.
Xsplit costs money and uses more resources. Nope.
By chance though the motherboard on my PC is from MSI which included a free year license for x split. Plus a few streamers that I watch used it and they liked it so there we are
is there any way to get the browser source from SE to load faster when switching scenes in obs?
As far as what’s different between them it’s basically like Intel and AMD. They both pretty much do the same thing but nothings in the same place and it’s all named different
Nope, that's up to OBS to change @wispy tinsel
thank you
Browser plugin hopefully will improve in the future
Hopefully OBS gets more optimized browser plugin support. Using browser sources really brings the cpu up.
I just dream of the day I dont have to shut down the browsersource so we don't have to wait for them to load. That will be a grand day indeed!
Well there are more reasons than just usage to shutting them down
namely the fact that they play audio
and you don't want them playing audio when they're in some other scene
Literally the only thing I miss from SL was not having to shut down the sources in other scenes and having that instant switch. Well, support here is far better as well ;)
well if the overlay is the same over the scenes it won't echo (or it shouldn't since its a global source in obs)
I’m still using a hybrid because I haven’t gotten everything moved over yet. So far I have the alerts and the tipping set up but I’m still using the event log the cup and the bit boss from stream labs. It’s a slow migration but eventually I’d like to keep everything in one spot
@sharp linden treating scenes/echo/shutdown is same in SE and SL
you can make a scene global source and use it ones, without the need to shut down
but if you create multiple scenes, gotta shut down source
Only gripe I have. If you can call it that is having to have the song request tab on screen for music to play. But it’s a minor thing. I just pull it’s own tab off to the side somewhere and minimize
Like I said it’s minor I’ve just accidentally closed it without meaning to on more than one occasion while I was trying to set things up in other tabs
you can also hotkey pause/skip via ground control
Didn’t know about that lol. I’ve literally started using this six hours ago so I’m still kind of reading on it
step by step... 😄
In between trying to make sure my kids don’t kill each other you know
If I had looked into the sooner it wouldn’t of been a big deal. The problem is Branebot shut down almost overnight. I came home from work one time and went live to find out that nothing worked. Come to find out they made the decision to shut the bot down for good.
Needless to say the fact that it was highly unexpected was an understatement

^
We're fortunate that @swift parcel and @analog forge have joined us here to help 
yeah we try to make it nicer on you guys to move your stuff
That’s why I’m here actually. Superstringman Is the one that pointed me this direction. Confidence went way up when I heard that he was joining you guys
Yeah the server we were moving to just broke everything
At least I’m lucky. I’m next to nobody in the grand scheme of things. Would’ve been a different story if I had like 200,000 followers or something
And if we tried to keep going it wouldn't have come back for a while it was that broke
I can’t see my play mu to be honest I can imagine the headaches of constantly moving and then Twitch seems to change every five minutes
Can’t say I blame you
so string decided to just stop there (which it was very much his decision and I don't blame him I would had done the same)
I read in one of the menus something about stream elements tracking goals for like follows and subs and stuff but I have yet to actually figure out how to set that up.
That one of the overlay modules I missed?
OK I’ll dive into it some more my first order was getting the basic alerts going
Then I’ll just move down the list
😄
It’ll be nice not to have five bots trolling my channel lol. As it is I had to get a muxy account
I have 4 in mine, lol. Muxy in discord, StreamElements, PhantomBot, and Nightbot. I should get nightbot removed soon, but it's mainly for Super Mario Maker.
i just have 2.. though the other is just to handle my popup gifs i do
soo all it does is watch
I tried using phantom by and I got an error every time I try to use it. Plus I wasn’t too thrilled about having a bot were the PC had to be on to use it. One of the things I liked about Branebot was that a hung out in your channel off-line and awarded points the people watching your VOD. I have Muxy because the panel for top bits required it and now that I have it using it for Discord is very nice. I have moobot because it’s the first one that I know and when I started I was directly from a PS4 so I wanted something that let me know when people fallowed etc. I just got rid of night Lotta because I was looking for a replacement and it looked like nightbot did pretty much the same thing moobot did. I don’t know that I’ll entirely be able to get rid of the moo. But at least if I can go down to three I’ll be golden
well stream elements does loyalty points as well
and has a store hence why we recommended it as it was practically us with some differences
I don't even know what to use with the store, besides the couple viewer game sessions they can request.
That’s basically what I was looking for. As I said earlier I don’t do a ton of giveaways. I’m too small for that so it’s mainly a song request thing. However when I do end up being 42 enough to do a special giveaway I wanted to be able to reward the long time loyalists over the ones that just popped in because I was giving away free stuff
@upbeat topaz I’m the same lol. But the fact that it is their offers an option to do something with it later
I wish Streamelements would allow the alltime leaderboard to mimic the current leaderboard.
I had the alltime reset because it had a couple bot points.
Now my current has more points on a user than the altime.
I Went back and forth over how to handle the points for existing viewers. After talking to a few of them we just made the decision to be fair I just resent everything so they put everybody back to zero. I was going to try to go through the west and set people up kind of how they were. But I know I would miss a few names and I did not want to forget anybody
But like I said most of what I do is song request related anyway and since I primarily do storytime games the songs aren’t usually on u less I’m doing a multi day. Overwatch. Battlefield. Etc. So for the time being I set the price for song requests two free for the next couple months or so and then I’ll set them back on once people build a balance again
@wanton sluice make a viewtime command and combined with the following command you get a good understanding of your current viewers loyalty. Based on that you bonus those people a couple points 😉
!command add !viewtime ${user} has spent ${user.time_online} watching .....custom txt this is the chat version, you can add it there or tru dashboard
The other option I had his eyes people come in the channel that I’ve known for a long time and I know they come by regularly just throw them 100 points to get them started
@upbeat topaz Current points for users is typically more than all time. This is because all time is only increased by the loyalty payouts. Current points is affected by gambling, contests, point bonus commands, etc.
Whoever said that all I do is play games needs to be slapped.
I hear that all the time for myself and for others. If they only had any idea what went on behind the scenes right
Someone can lose all their points gambling but the all time still reflects the amount they've earned by watching
and points are only gathered when stream is online. Points can be lost when stream is offline
@clever mango Do the ranks go off of all time then I assume?
Change my avatar picture. I figured this was a little less scary than my rage face constantly
@wanton sluice there are leaderboard rankings for both current and all time
the !leaderboard command uses current
In the chat though when they check their currency and it gives a rank is that based off of the all-time list or the current?
current
Is there any Battlefield Super themes
No, but new themes are added all the time. At least 3 are coming this month
Do you all find that viewers prefer streams that have the full game shown with overlay parts on top of the game capture, or having an overlay section beside the game and putting stream info there?
Hrm, maybe that should go into general, lol.
ok
How do you insert overlays into obs?
Setting up your Overlay with StreamElements is quick and simple. In case you need help, here is a guide to help you with the initial setup…
thank you 😃
other side note - theres no way to customize default commands? for exmaple i'd like to have "1song" not just be "current song [x]"
twin - minimalistic when in game, when out of game, make it sleek and simple
thats how i do it, and how most people i've enjoyed do it, so i've taken a page out of their books
also nevermind - figured by trial and error.. default and custom commands do not overwrite nor conflict but run paralell to eachother... interesting

my overlay keeps freezing when i add an image for my follow alert. Any idea why?
changed my twitch name, now streamelements doesn't come into chat.
log out and log back in @toxic knoll
@molten mango I assume by overlay you mean browser that you're using to work on the overlay? If you use chrome turn off hardware acceleration , if you don't use chrome - use chrome
@toxic knoll log out and in on the site and part and join the bot
@swift parcel also if they still have site issues have them try Chrome beta. The latest Chrome version (stable) is giving some ppl crazy Cpu usage numbers on our site
👍
its getting late for me so im missing a few things here and there lol
brain is running low needs a recharge
speaking of nini
Lol get some rest
Late? oh wait, 5AM hah ni ni
@swift parcel ill try that out
installed ground control. Most excellent Smithers..
Hey guys, quick question is it possible to see Activity Feed logs from months back?
When creating overlays, is there a way to see your overlay in the manager instead of seeing the name of the game you choose for the overlay?
are you looking for donations or just events in genreal @atomic pumice ?
Actually trying to find some specific subs that subbed tier2 and 3 over the course of the past 45 or so days
@dense jackal
So we have a search history for donations as for subs you would need to scroll back
should record everything since you added it to your account
@upbeat topaz I'm a bit confused by your question, you mean see a picture of your overlay instead of your reccomended game?
@dense jackal Where should I be looking, I am in the Activity Feed and it goes all the way til 'A Month Ago' it says. I know there were some more prior to what it shows here.
It should keep track of everything if you have a very high amount of the alerts make sure you have only subs checked
If you are sure you have had SE more than that time however I'll make sure to report the bug 😄
Is there a way to see when I implemented SE?
Maybe that is the case and I just didnt remember the day I started using
Even I don't have that data unfrotunately @atomic pumice
@lament blade which browser are you using?
@weary mist All good. Must have just glitched out for a minute.
@dense jackal Yeah. That way I don't need to remember the name of every overlay and how it was setup.
Unfortunately not right now, but I do like that idea! You can add that to our idea board here https://streamelements.helprace.com/s1-general/ideas
ok
Which CD does the routlette module actually use? The one in Module > Roulette > Settings OR Chat Commands > Default > !roulette > Settings?
Module roulette settings I would assume.
If you want to be safe just match the numbers since I don't have a solid answer currently

yeah problem is I can't match the numbers - 300 second CD on the default command and 1800 or higher on the module settings
Wait..
@next spruce looks like it uses the module cooldown numbers
I just tested it
thanks
np
I just had a question about overlays if anyone can help?
Ask away
So I've made an overlay and I'm not entirely sure how to use it in stream. Do I launch and then put the url in OBS or is it something else?
Do I just set it to my native resolution?
You would set the browser source to the same size as the overlay on StreamElements.
Ah okay, thanks heaps
And if I edit it do I have to repaste the url? Or does it just automatically update it (if I edit it on the overlay manager)
Is anyone aviable to help right now?
@lament blade automatically updates as long as you hit the save button/
@silver burrow Ask away
I am getting this error
StreamElements: Invalid user or channel
when using this code $(urlfetch https://2g.be/twitch/following.php?user=$(touser)&channel=$(channel))
I tried that, but it was missing a braket and gave me something like this
Then I added the braket at the end and the same error occured of "invalid user or channel"
sorry discord messes it up
${customapi.https://2g.be/twitch/following.php?user=$(user)&channel=$(channel)}
there u go
But we have a followage command
Anyone else have a problem running stream elements with chrome?
It's so laggy for me it's incredibly frustrating
I am using it with Microsoft edge right now and it's working better than with chrome
Lol not meaning to be
shouldnt happen, I am checking
@azure dock turn off hardware acceleration
if that doesnt work try the chrome beta.
How do I shut off hardware acceleration
@azure dock You have to go into chrome settings (3 vertical dots in the upper right corner), then scroll to the bottom to show the advanced settings. It's one of the last options at the very bottom of the page
Oh got it thank you
It doesn't seem to be working, no other sites are lagging with chrome I don't understand
curiousity, are you on a small screen?
No, just an average size monitor

Hmm 
sighhhhh
It might be working a little better
I just don't want the issues to arise and I start lagging in League
while streaming
So you're not on a laptop? 
You don't need the site open while streaming
yea 
You can you our App for SR
and Twitch website for Chat
O actually I knew that part, I mean I guess I'm noob sorry, but for the alerts and stuff having obs up will just show me my alerts in real time?
But for song requests on stream elements, and the playlist I thought the website had to be open
@azure dock Yep, you will see/hear them in real time in OBS, but if you want an event list similar to the one you see on your dashboard, as well as the song request, just use ground control, our windows app, which you can download here https://streamelements.com/groundcontrol
I'm having some issues with viewers trying to access the stream store.
Are they accessing it on Chrome or another browser?
I do !store and nothing shows up
🤔
Still does not show up in chat
Thanks
Hi All, new to the server - I've switched to stream elements to organise my overlays, however I have a slight issue. Finally got my alert box set up how I like it on an overlay, but can't find a way to duplicate that alert box in another overlay, am I missing something? or does each overlay require the alert box set up each time?
There isn't a way to do this yet but it's a feature which has been requested a lot recently on our ideas board, it will be done 😃
Thanks for the info, I'll stop looking :p
@pulsar whale In the mean time, you can duplicate your overlay and remove everything except your alertbox
yeah, i was considering that being the next option.
also, you can create an overlay with just your alertbox, this way you can use it on multiple overlays
yeah, i used a default set of overlays, just to get off the ground, until I realised the issue. have a few options, just wanted to make sure I wasn't missing something on the site 😄
is there a way to setup a !shoutout command, like nightbot has?
Yes, there's actually a template for it already, go to create a command and select the command template 'shoutout'
No problem 😃
@azure dock use the dashboard on twitch. It seems less intense than just going to your channel. Or. Worst case. I used my cell phone with twitch app on chat only mode when I started.
@wanton sluice by adding /chat to you twitch link, you'll get a window with only the chat in it. way better than the dashboard since the page doesn't have to load everything else
Learn something new everyday oh. And disable the beta site. Dunno why but it’s buggy
Even better 😃
Yeah beta site is beta. And extensions such as FFZ don't work great with it
Did they even let bttv live in beta
¯_(ツ)_/¯
@wanton sluice thanks I use the dashboard right now. For alerts u suggest the ground control app?
@azure dock give it a try, it has a dark mode too
Okay cool thanks I'll use the /chat to make it simpler and check out the control app.
The ground control app is awesome, i'm sure you'll like it 😃
@azure dock can confirm the ground control app is pretty awesome for music. As for alerts. As long as you have the browser source in OBS or whatever right you don’t need the website or ground control running at all. OBS will handle it.
@wanton sluice Having the event list is always a good thing, because if you are very focused when playing something like PUBG or you get raided, you won't be able to acknowledge every follow/sub/etc
Just keep in mind tho you need to gage the browser source unmuted for alert audio
Yeah I keep mine up for events. It’s nice. But if resources are that much of a premium., it’s something to think about
I built my pc last year. And it’s overkill kind of. Or was. It’s aging a bit lol.
But. Whoever thought of the external app (ground control). Bravo

Love the fact you can shut off the actual video player part.
Thanks for the praise.
We're always looking to improve it, so if you have any ideas please post them on https://strms.net/ideas
@serene granite never seen anything like it.
It’ll be nice once I get the event list, goals and a couple other things incorporated into SE. then I can have one source instead of 6. I’ve noticed the more sources it’s pulling from the more cpu gets eaten up
so, after renaming myself, in my stream elements settings it still had my old name under the broadcaster under user management. I deleted it, but now I'm not sure how to add myself back with my new name under broadcaster
@toxic knoll please visit https://streamelements.com/logout and then log back in
ty
@wanton sluice that's the whole concept of SE. One browsersource instead of 6 means a lot less resources in use 😃

I'm having an issue with getting my alertbox to play the proper gif that i designated to play. It still plays the shark dancing gif for my subscriber alert. Follwer alert, tip alert and host alert all work but subscriber and cheer dont seem to respond to me changing the gif alert for it.
gosh darnit! sorry haha im dumb
I might be in here more frequent soon, thinking about possibility of streaming for fun
That got me too @mild frigate drove me mad
@wanton sluice I checked out the variation settings for the subscriber alert but it doesnt seem to want to play the gif. Do you happen to remember the settings you set in the variations tab?
So the way we set it up as, is the Default variation would say how many months someone has resubbed for.
The Default one just says "x has subbed"
Oh. So there’s a different one for sub and resub?
Might have to take another look. Everytime I fire off a test it always says resub
@jolly sinew contests can only be started via the web interface, but dashboard access for supermods will be a thing soon
thanks
Soon ™
Hey Guys it's me again. So I've started going over the 8obs tips. I've noticed that I don't have NVENC or VCE. However, I do have QSV. I believe that's my built in graphics card because I haven't installed one myself? I have an Intel HD Graphics. I've never messed with any of my settings before and I'm wanting to try out these 8 tips to see if the streaming actually is less strained on my end.
Right now my encoder is set or software x264, do you think it's safe to change it to the QSV?
Honestly, it wouldn't really matter (from what I know). Intel graphics use the CPu as it is to do all the things, so it might be just adding an extra step
Haven't heard of QSV, then again I hadn't heard of VCE either 
Good point Scalper. I should probably leave things as the are since everything is built in. I guess it would make since to do changes if I actually installed a graphics card seperate from everything else.
👍
you might want to consider the graphics card anyways, as it will take some strain off your CPU
Maybe I should just take out the words NVENC and VCE and just leave it as Hardware to be on the safe side 
parethesis would work better I think
No idea what QSV is
()
Qsv is also known as quicksync
Are there any others?

It’s basically the hardware encoder of intel embedded with intel’s igp
Why would you want to stream off intel gpu
Poor life choices 
lmao
Only those 3 exists because intel-nvidia-amd
Right, I can add that in then
Here’s a side by side comparison of encoder with explainations https://youtu.be/jludqTnPpnU
Is Ryzen REALLY the best consumer CPU option for video encoding and game streaming? Let's find out! Visit https://www.squarespace.com/LTT and use offer code ...
To be honest Cuda I would rather stream off Nvidia, unfortunately the comp wasn't built with it, #poorlifechoices lol. Also Nvidia quit making the card that would be combatable for me. This is a factory built comp not self built so I am limited on what I can do. 
Added in QSV, thanks for the information 😃
@quick mulch F
Thanks Cuda I enjoy being graded. 
I thought he was pressing F to pay respect 
You have no idea lol

Quick Question are you guys working on making it possible to sync up with Extra Life by chance? Itstead of having to use streampro and their overlay system, you pretty much have what is needed. It would be a convienience to be able to manage the tipping system etc, with extra life as an option. Does that make sense?
It's definitely been mentioned before, have you checked if it's on the ideas board yet?
I haven't
Thanks
Hey guys im new to using streamelements. I need to know how to import a coded altert into the system. its like a .css coded alert. Would be awesome if you could help me with that.
So it's custom css?
It's on our ideas board and it's currently under review https://streamelements.helprace.com/i188-custom-html-css
i got it from a friend. if u want i could send it to you.
We have no way to support custom css currently
Ah ok.
well, there are "ways", but they can take a while
you can create a gif of any images that happen. then mess with the css in the browser source in OBS to see what things you can make the text do, but I think that is the best we can offer right now
i want to archieve something like this. Is there any way to do that? Would be awesome if you could tell me how this is done. ( sorry that it comes twice^^).
Heh, 90% mobile right now, and on the worst internet. But DM me, and I could have a look later tonight after I get home
im having an issue where my top donor has 2 seperate entries
can any one help me out?
Pillarn is his name
i just need to the two entries merged
Hey guys me again. The PX dimensions of our profile banner on StreamElements Please? I am having a bit of difficulty.
@dense quail is this on the leaderboard on your tipping page?
I meant my profile banner to be specific.
@weary mist yes
@weary mist ok i dm you
@dense quail I'll take a look at it
@quick mulch I can't remember off hand. Hoping one of my other support guys chimes in 
@lapis nimbus 💙
I have Gimp I'll play around and figure it out. I dont' have anything to do but cook BREAKFAST WHICH IS BURNING ON THE STOVE! ~RUNS~ 
@here How do I subscribe the StreamElements BOT to my channel?
you're going to need to contact twitch partner support for that
they can give the bot a free sub
Hey guys I'm having some issues with your website. It's freezing a lot in my browser. Is this a known issue and do you have any tips on how to fix it?
are you using Google Chrome ?
Yes I am
are you seeing this happen on specific pages of the site?
No it's really the whole site that's freezing after using it for some time, but the pages I visit the most are overlays and chat commands
I think it's the latest: Version 61.0.3163.100
ok thanks
we received a bunch of reports for this so we're still accumulating data
and we're actually very very close to releasing an entire new dashboard, so there's a good chance of that fixing it
Awesome, btw thanks for coming to my channel and say hello 😃 Do you have any idea when the new dashboard is coming out? within this month?
yes, definitely within this month
Alright, well thank you so much. I will be looking forward to it!
stick around our discord, that's the best way to hear of everything first 😃
how can i activate loyalities... when i write in chat !cookies... nothing happend... what do i have to make in SE to activate it?
if you have your loyalty settings turned on, then go to your chat commands, deflaut commands, edit the !points command, and add cookies in the alias field, hit enter, then save.
ahhh oki thanks
Hey lads, it's my Antivirus blocking many things from the application Ground Control... If anyone has a tutorial to efficiently disable any control made on the installation AND the application itself, i'm down for that, cuz it's hell down here x)
So it was your anti-virus in the end?
Disable Anti-Virus, best work around 
⤴
guys
try logging in to SE
some people are getting error on twitch login
but it works for me
I suggested that he disables his anti-virus before, he said it didn't make a difference
Yes but it's different things from BitDefender
im hanging, but got in @proud pumice just slow
BitDefender is i have to say, complicated
I got in
@stuck hamlet did u get in in the end?
yes
looks like twitch is having issues
yeah, it took me about 10 seconds
@late shuttle i really dont know what to tell you except to disable it :/
Hey guys its me again. I've been messing around on gimp to try and figure out my Profile banner dimensons and have learned that it's a wrap dimension. It's not the common Box dimension people would be used to. Let's say if you were to use an image that you would use for a cup, it kind of loops around unless you cut it off at a stopping point and move the image to center. Atleast the work I am doing on gimp is behaving that way once I upload my test. So as it stands the borders on the left side and the right side of the profile banner are going to be pretty thick. What I've done is made a 1500 x 500 box dimension on gimp and have been using colored dots to figure this out. 1500 px by 500 px fits for a good clear picture. It's the viewing area that is needed to be figured out. you guys might consider making a template for people to make their profile banners.
I also need to protect the path to the app from analysing the app i think
It's a pain in the ass to setup
Not only that, also, firewall, etc etc
@quick mulch I'm glad you figured that out because I had a look in the chat history and found nothing 
@tight harness Thanks for that. I guess ONce I am done I'll upload my finale template to you for gimp anyway. I
@tight harness Here you go. this the best I can do for a template for the User Profile Banner Dimension Template. It's done with gimp but saved as a png file.
That works 
Hi guys, is the HypeCup only showing Tokens for a short duration? Cus mine resets , specially when changing scenes ? :S
If you shutdown the source it currently removes the tokens, that is planned to be fixed 😃
Or rather changed 😄
Thanks ❤
Anyway to autogreet a specific user when they speak in chat? (no big deal just wondering if it could great my girlfriend when she says hi) 😛
I have to manually transfer some tips, but they dont show up in my overlay "top donations" etc. Can this be fixed?
@polar eagle Not a feature currently, check the ideas board to see if it's on there 😃
@oblique galleon https://streamelements.com/dashboard/session Should be able to change that here: https://streamelements.com/dashboard/session
To go back to the auto-greet idea though, I know many people don't like it, especially lurkers. Something to consider
Oh I hate auto greeters, but I think it's very different if it's prearranged with someone
Context with things like that is everything 😃
I think there's certain occasions where it's not so bad
Yeah 😃
Definitely needs some planning
@polar eagle What you can do is create a greet/welcome command, and add keywords like 'hello'. This way when people type hello, they are greeted by the bot
Oh so manually imported tips cant be shown on the Leaderboard ? :S
@oblique galleon Sure they can, mine do
I'll just make the gf a !gf command 😛
😛
This is isn't exactly a question about StreamElements, but you might still be able to help. Anyone know how to record full screen window capture on OBS?
Oh u have to tick the "import" tip
@acoustic linden use the game capture source, if it's not working, use the window capture source
it's recommended to use game capture, but some old game don't work. so use window capture instead, if it's still doesn't work, you can use screen capture, but that's risky and way more resource heavy
Window Capture works, but its not showing up on the entire screen, it has black bars
@acoustic linden is it a game?
then why don't you use game capture?
I don't really understand how to use it
it's the same thing as window capture lol
but its still not showing on the entire screen
by default it will capture any app in fullscreen, you can tell him to capture a specific window
try to resize your source
ok
can i use my music with ankhbot on my overlay ?
yea wich i cant add songs 2 xD
Sure you can, it's a song request feature, that's what it's for 😃
but it dont let me :3
You mean a backup playlist?
or is it only for paying people ?
Are you referring to a backup playlist?
this when i add a song 2 it nothing shows in queue
Click on Settings and you'll see a place where it says 'Backup Playlist'
Put the playlist link in there
@tight harness while we’re on about the cup.
I’m assuming it auto empties everytime you go offline
@lament blade this not is weird. You actually have to create the playlist in YouTube itself.
It does currently, but it won't soon ™
You don't have to create a playlist, you can use a pre-made one
so i will also have to edit the overlay ? since the overlay is not connected to the bot ?
Well. Assuming you don’t already have one
I had to make one because I use Spotify usually.
If you're going to use our overlays then you might as well use our song requests, you'll want everything to talk to each other, and naturally all of our feautres talk to each other
Using another program for song requests is just going to cause complications and no communication between features
Cool thing about it is tho. Change the playlist on youtube it’ll update itself in the bot
It’s the same url
but i am using both the overlays and the bot currently but the overlay say currently playing: no song
so they are not connected ?
That's because no songs have been requested
It doesn't show backup playlist song names
with the backup playlist, it doesn't pull the song (yet). it WILL update upon a song request
I meant to listen to music. I hadn’t created any playlists because I personally never used YouTube for it.
well thats just annoying
There's a simple reason for it, it requires an API call from youtube, we have a limit of how many of these we can do
then i wont be using the bot
in the interest of keeping song requests active for everyone, we had to limit to just song requests to show up. But we are working on a lot that will increase that limit, along with other fun things
It’s not like say moobot or how brane was where it showed the playlist on the site I think is what he’s getting at legendary. It’s a tad confusing at first ichi. But it works well. Especially with the ground control
The bot just takes the song requests, there's a lot more to the bot than just song requests
hai hai back to ankhbot i will check the bot in a year there it will probaly be updated
check at the end of the year, 12 months is a bit long, lol
there will be a LOT changed by then
i can immagen more overlays 😉
there is only 1-2 people working on overlays, but adding overlays doesn't require coding. There is a huge re-write of the entire system that has been happening 😛
Back and front end are getting a tune-up
Now. If only there was a way to run overlays on a stream from the ps4 without a capture card.
Chop chop 😉
lol, if only we could fix that from our end
We're not in the business of miracles 
that is an issue directly with the software the consoles provide for streaming
dont think they will implement support for overlays on consoles in the near future
and if - it would be Xbox since Microsoft owns Mixer and they might be interested in it. Sony - nah
I know. Guess I forgot to show my sarcasm flag
haha
Good news tho is. I’m off work now. So I have a couple hours to work with some setups.
Does each overlay you make have its own url?
Ah ok. Was wondering how to differentiate between live brb and end
But if they’re done deferent urls that makes things easy
😉

I read this as "he can be caught" 

sometimes it is very beneficial to be "caught"
True. Which is why I’m not a coder. I’d go cross eyed
I’m going to be home soon yay. And hour and a half of just me some music and the bot.
Wait. That sounded way wrong
barry white/marvin gaye stream 😄
a singer
I guess I should warn you that while I do have a serious side 99.9% of the time I’m a joker
a lot of us are like that, haha
Only problem with that is. 90% of the time I’m the only one laughing
but text makes it hard to "hear" the jokes 😛
yeahhhh
lol
:sarcastic query: who’s Marvin gaye?
lmao\
So. Just to be clear. For sub alerts. The main alert is for new subs and the default variation is for Resubs starting at 2 months?
by default, yes
On the overlay to test a subscription it seems like the only option is the resub tho. Every time I click it that’s all that ever comes up. Is there not a test for the main one?
Because if that is the case I screwed it up and the default variation will fire on the first sub even though it says Resub. Lol. I Must fix that ASAP.
I didn’t notice in the text there was a difference
lol
If you use the 1, it is the initial sub. There is also custom, which you can define different parameters
I did keep the default dancing shark though for hosts. Even made a reference to Sharknado
@weary mist You have a Twitter? I want to send you something to take a look at but apparently it is too large to send through Discord

@ Lordscalper
Ok. Sec

Got ya.
UNTAG YOU CRETIN

see? they look almsot exactly the same


lol
Hello
trying to help a friend and would like to know for my own knowledge. how do you request a song by title? i try but it says you must provide a valid youtube id or url
it works fine with a URL just not a song name/title. thanks
As far as I know it's not currently possible. Something to do with how YouTube has their API or something.
Yeah you can't currently request songs by title, we have a limit on how many youtube API calls we can make each month, to allow that would surpass our current limit, we are looking to have the limit raised
Ah ok thanks. Had a friend switching from Nightbot and couldnt get it to work so she was asking me so i was digging into it 😃
Any of you guys know how to create a twitter command where the response shows your latest tweet?
${lasttweet.USER}
Use ${lasttweet.<TWITTER HANDLE>} I.E ${lasttweet.Tjockas}
😄
Damn, LS so fast 
Like sonic 
I've heard endurance is a great feature to have 
I have it where it counts 
Thanks a lot guys!!
What determines an api call? Or you mean the types of calls.
Because every request calls the youtube ya? How could you possibly know how many SR will be done?
We have a limit on how many API calls we can do, each API call costs us a certain amount of 'points' lets say, we know that using the song name to do the requests takes up more 'points', so we don't use this method, it's the same reason we don't call the name of the song for the overlay unless it's a requested song, songs from the backup playlist will just say 'no song'
Now if only I can get the web source to stop freezing / stop responding when I turn on the hype cup and kappa wigets
Oh ok. So it’s a type of call
It’s not like you have a million points and every song request made takes 1
That would be literally impossible to judge
Correct, we have so many 'points' to use and each action takes up a certain amount of 'points', so unless we get more we have to be careful what choices we make in regards to API calls
So using !currentsong or whatever only works during active requested songs
Yes
At least this is my understanding of it, i'm by no means a developer 😃 but this is what I've been told
Not to keep comparing to brane. But we liked the overlay that showed the album art and song name on screen. From YouTube. Along with who requested it.
The last part especially. So if the song sucked we knew who to blame for it. Haha
Maybe that might be why a lot of bots don’t do as much. Saves them on the API calls 😉
If you knew how many song requests we receive it'd probably be easier to understand 😛
I like the ground control app tho. The player is nice.
We did used to have the feature, but we kept hitting the cap with that, which is why we disabled it
I’m assuming once the backup playlist can be shown an ‘add current song’ to playlist would t Be too hard
Wouldn’t
So what happens if you reach the? The feature just deactivated? Or they charge you for it
Reach the cap
I might have to go back to my simple overlay setup.. Pc is struggling to stream with the new layout :/
Or possibly go down to 720p30 :/
I may end up doing the same too. Kappagen is nice. But I’d rather have the cup
I think youtube just begins denying the api calls once the limit is hit so SR would be down
Apparently I struggle to do both.
That'd be my guess too Terra
But I was just running defaults. Still have to try makin emotes smaller and reducing the number to like 100
Kappagen and the cup are the heaviest widgets
Physics on or off?
I’m at my kids dance class atm. But I’m gonna try variations of smaller emotes. Maybe turn off explosions for everything but tips. Or subs.
And I don’t need 400 emotes. Lol. 50-100 will do.
Ah. So if you don’t use entire screen they just go inside the box area
Correct
My KappaGen is the width of the screen and roughly 75px tall
Stop bragging 
Um.
I don't if anyone else has reported this bug but stream elements doesn't play song requests automatically
I have to literally puase my game everytime to make sure it starts playing the very first requested song until it gets empty again.
This is a known bug but thanks for reporting 👍🏽
If you're using ground control you can set a hotkey so you don't have to leave your game to press play
Ground Control?
StreamElements has a desktop app 
It's great for monitoring the activity feed and handling song requests. More features will be added to it in the future.. 
Don't know why the website can't have an option or at least play song request automatically... ¯_(ツ)_/¯
It's a bug. It will be fixed.
@clever mango Where do you find your Authentication Key?
The JWT token? https://streamelements.com/dashboard/account/information
⤴
@spring shard Is there another type of Authentication Key related to Stream Elements? 🤔
But thanks.
Well, there is an API token on the same page as well. But I have honestly no idea what it's used for. I guess it's for when StreamElements communicates with other websites.
@sinful phoenix What do you need this "Authentication Key" for?
🤦
I'm guessing he wanted the JWT token for the Ground Control app you linked. xD
¯_(ツ)_/¯
Can i switch the PayPal account to a different one? Cause I'm helping out with a charity
Thanks for the feedback. I'll note it for the devs.
Quick Q, does the bot commands support Markdown? AKA putting a link into a single word?
Hiya on my channel it isn't counting points that people earn for being in chat
Anyone around ;)
@sharp linden no as twitch chat doesn't do it
@vital jackal log out and relog in? and double check loyalty is turned on
Ahh, duely noted
@sharp linden Twitch chat runs off something called IRC, it a very simple but not very complex chat platform
(Well that's what IRC is in a nutshell)
I figured, but man that would make some chat commands look sexy as F***K!!
Hi, everyone here is happy to help you but please refrain from tagging random people. If you know them, send them a dm please. If you do not, just wait for someone to come in and help. Thank you kindly.
Hey guys! I've been recreating tips so that I can get my top donors over from streamlabs, this is all good but is there a way to keep them on the leaderboard but delete them from recent events?
Add one, see what happens. I'm unsure on this one.
Yeah they are in recent events am I able to get someone in the back end to delete recent events once I'm done? Is that possible? @silk patrol sent me here 😃
If you delete the tip from "My Tips" page, does the event remain in the activity feed?
Yes it does but it also removes them from the leaderboard.
An ability to back date the event or just remove the event while the tip staying on the leaderboard is what I'm trying to sort if you know what I mean
I understand now. I don't think there is a way to accomplish that. The leaderboard figures are tied to events in the system.
Is there any other way for me to sort the information to be able to be imported from streamlabs?
Jump in voice for a sec, txt might be to flat to understand what you are trying to achieve 😃
do i need to set up a donation page on streamelements to get the loyalty points automatically added for the donations.... or would it work even if the donation page is from twitch alerts?
Is there anywhere we can use to get for example Battlefield overlays or World of Warships overlays?
@lament blade The donation page is required because otherwise we are not notified of incoming tips. SE is built as an all-in-one tool where everything (bot, tipping page, overlays) work together 
okay ty c:
@spring cosmos Not available through StreamElements but I'm sure there are other places on the net that offer stream graphics for those games
when will streamlabs allow people to import to streamelements again?
I am using OBS, have a steamelements premade (but modified) overlay, and there's like this cut off around the border
@lament blade StreamElements has contacted them to find out why they are restricting users from accessing their own data (tips, alert settings, loyalty points) and to see if this can be resolved. At this time, they have not been cooperative. StreamElements is recommending all streamers affected by this to please contact them via social media. The more streamers that they hear from about this the better.
@mystic oar All theme overlays are 1920x1080 so please set your browser source dimensions to that resolution and fit to your OBS canvas if needed with CTRL+F
how to put videos if you can not upload videos?
oh right
When I try to play music during my stream all audio goes completely out. No idea what I’m doing wrong. These are my setting in obs
Okay so I just played it back on twitch and a message came up saying the audio was muted because of copyright issues.. is there any way around this?
I'm looking to find how to add commands to Stream Elements. Somehow my "shout out" command got deleted
can anyone help please and thank you
!command add/remove/edit/options/show Valid flags are: -cd (number) -usercd (number) -cost (number) -level (number) -type (say, whisper or reply) -count (number)
${1} is awesome and deserves your follow. Check them out at twitch.tv/${1} They were last seen playing ${game ${1}} <--- this is a shoutout command, (!sr <username>), if you want to do something similar, you could add ${2:} to the end (for your raid message), and anything after the username will be put in the ${2:} spot

Apologies, I just realized that I should have posted this here: I've recently switched over to elements and everything has been going well for the most part, but last night I noticed that my tip alerts aren't showing up on stream when someone donates. I can emulate a tip and it works fine. This is the case on both a pc and a mac. Thank you for the help!
thank you very very much @misty wagon
Is there a way to make a sound play with a command that is not a !redeem command?
@rigid cargo did you change the link in your twitch panel to your Streamelements donation page?
@serene granite I did. Just double checked. Should it be https:// for the start of the url?
The tips from last night also don't show up in the leaderboards
you see them on your paypal account ?
@rigid cargo you have tip moderation on
you have 2 pending tips
go to the acitivty feed and approve them
and disable this option if you dont need it
@atomic hollow omg that's it. Thank you very much! @serene granite yes I was seeing it there.
Lol feelin dumb 👏😅
it happens 😃
um - what/where is my jwt token? trying out you're alls ground control app
here: https://streamelements.com/dashboard/account/information and click on show secrets
Anyone know the answer to my question?
@cloud plinth youre looking for a way around Twitch copyright?
Yeah is there a different way to do it?
just play music that isnt copyrighted
hey @atomic hollow in support 😛
😃
Lol how do I know if it’s copyrighted though?
google non-copyright music 😃
Hmm okay. I wish I could just use Apple Music or Spotify lol. Thanks for the info 👍🏼
maybe i’m just missing it but is there a way to see recent subs? not showing up in my activity feed or overlays
@grizzled sail That's weird. You can check on your twitch dashboard to see if they appear. If you can see them on twitch but not in the activity feed, let us know
does it matter that i’m offline?
they subbed while offline
(i just got affiliate lol)
want to make sure it’s all up and running beforehand though
Did previous subs appear in your activiy feed, or is it your first sub?
first sub
try to log out and log back in, sometimes the twitch link gets lost because of the status change
i don’t have the exact time but within the last half hour
Hey, I need help with the theme gallery. After I click Create and type in my own overlay name, what do I do exactly?
@frozen barn you can edit it in my overlays or just grab the displayed link and use it as is
Alright, thanks.
watch this please - https://youtu.be/X7XrDdRE7Fk
Create an amazing overlay with StreamElements, watch our video guide to learn how. ----- Tipping page setup: https://youtu.be/eLzxRkq7tJo Add KappaGen to you...
@grizzled sail ping me when you have the info, ill take care of it
@atomic hollow username is jardio, i manually added it in the data section of one of my overlays. just want to ensure it’ll update automatically from now one
once you get the 1st live sub it should be in order, i will add this to your activity feed
alright i’ll wait and see how that works then and if i have any problems with it i’ll bring it up but fingers crossed. thanks so much!
@grizzled sail its there, go over your overlay widgets to make sure its all good
just pinged my alerts and is showing up the dashboard. thanks for your help and the follow!
❤
@cunning summit What's your issue?
im trying to enter a giveaway
and i cant enter ticket
i used chat to buy a original 1k and now i can buy the rest of the 4k to get in max
@silk patrol u there?
ok i have to go now bye
Sorry I was on a break. You might have reached the maximum tickets available for that giveaway. When you'll be back, can you share with us the name of the channel you were trying to buy tickets from?
hello is there anyone available for a help question?
@candid palm always, ask and we shall answer
Awesome, I am having troubles finding if there is a way to use your own custom sound for alerts like follows and such
@candid palm it's pretty easy. when you go into one of your overlays, go into your alertbox settings and then you can customize everything
you know i was just thinking on that.. i have been using the super themes and didnt think to check their allert bot settings lol
this video explains how the alertbox works https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8LVRd2X4HvU
Learn how to customize your alerts and setup different alerts variations with StreamElements Alertbox ----- Overlay Manager guide: https://youtu.be/X7XrDdRE7...
I also accidently deleted a window i wanted from one of the super themes, was trying to see if i can get it put back without having to redownload the whole super theme and lose all the changes i made lol
I do apprecaite the help, and have already convinced a couple of my friends to switch over simply for the help you give on here already
if you don't hit the save button, just exit the overlay and open it again, and changes will be reverted back to the previous save
lol i hit the save then realized i wanted the picture for a change lol, i will just have to work on it again lol
thanks, you too ❤
Hello guys i need some help and question if anyone got time to Voice Chat ?
about Stream elements so i'd like a developer or one of thier staff
I can't voice chat right now, but feel free to type your question
As a New streamer I'm struggling with all the bots and all the Streams website ( which i wont publish here )
I want a " All in One " Kind of solution
well you're in the right place then 😃
of course
you might wanna check our youtube channel, as everything is explained here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UuweQah3v00
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...
We have many widgets available 😃
oh oh that awosome . But what about Timers? that are preset?
And how can i remove some of the Default commands of the chat?
Or change thier Discription atleast to customize it to my twitch theme?
timers are available, it's at the bottom of the menu, you can disable default commands, and some of them can be recreated as custom commands, you can't change the default command output
you can't remove them, but if they are disabled, they won't be visible on your public command page
You can't remove default commands because they're generally pretty important, you can choose to disable them if you want but you should always have the ability to re-enable them if you change your mind
BTTV is a browser extension that adds emotes to the twitch chat
I'd wish you guys made some Default timers which we can change thier Discription so we wont have to deal with expressing it
You mean this? https://streamelements.com/dashboard/bot/timers
Hi guys. I have an issue in the overlay editor. I can't change the image in the subscriber alert and i can't clear the image either. The default shark keeps showing up. I can edit any other alert but the subscriber alert.
thats empty for me 😄
Yes, because you haven't added any yet
@hoary crystal check the variations, a lot of peeps miss it
@tight harness One other thing 😄 in the Offline Overylay . How am i spose to geet it on twitch without an active streaming off that ? since its a Updated image and Twitch doesn't support it
@gaunt light timers are more of a personal thing, they are pretty easy to create
Thats it @silk patrol thank you so much!
I also choosed the Gold black Overlay , And when i edited that Message it was way out of your picture is there a way to fix it ?
@gaunt light the offline overlay is something streamers use to say "stream is ending," if you want an image to be shown when you are actually offline, you have to set it on twitch
oh ok
I dont mind share screen with one of you 😄
to explain excally what my problem is 😄
have you tried to resize the widget?
you would need to resize it on your end
Well i've deleted it due to incompetence can you guys send it to me so i re add it ?
I dont want to start all over again i've changed everything
if you haven't saved yet, exit the overlay and open it again
