Huh, that did it
Maybe you need to put in the full link
will try
You put in only part of it
looks like that might have done it
and there we have it. so now your dev team knows what is up if it happens again 😃
thanks alot
No problem 😃
I'll remove the Editor access that I have, if you ever need help again we can just set it up again 
thanks
All done
danke
You're very welcome 😃
How can I be part of the sellout channel? lol, I dont use the overlay only because I stream directly from PS4. But I do plan on using it once I have a PC
Do you use the bot and tipping page? 😃
I do @tight harness !
Let me ask for you 
thank you ^_^
@royal saddle I've added you 😃
yay! thank you @tight harness 😃
You're very welcome 😄
Love StreamElements, it has made my life easier as a console streamer
We always love hearing things like this, I'm glad that we've managed to make life easier for you! 
@royal saddle ❤
@atomic hollow ☺
My host alerts are not working
@royal saddle we need a new blog 😉
@golden surge Do you have your activity feed open or Ground Control (our desktop app) you need to have one of those open while streaming to get your host alerts
@misty wagon
are you looking for a writer? or you're looking for more of my posts? lol
More of that x reasons blog, I liked the discussion that followed 
Do i need to download the ground control?
@golden surge Either that or the other suggestion I made
By activity feed I meant on our website
If you'd rather use Ground Control that's fine
I was actually just pointed to one of your blogs, I found it very powerful with an important message @royal saddle
Well im on streamelements dashboard rn
@misty wagon i was working on a post for streamers like me and highlighting StreamerElements for it. I'll let you know before I publish it ^_^
@valid thicket ⬆ 
Tnx @misty wagon , @royal saddle can you link me as well once live?
Is it possible with widgets to display your stream title in text format?
Not currently, you can make a text label and type it out, but there's no variable for grabbing it automatically
Alright 👍
@valid thicket yeah! definitely, I'll DM you my site link and I'll let you know when it's live
There is a chat command variable for it @simple crane
So it must be possible, just not implemented yet
So i need to have the activity feed open while streaming?
Either the Activity Feed or Ground Control, yes, you need either one of those for the host alerts data to get pulled from Twitch properly
Alright thanks
No problem 
@simple crane I'd suggest adding your idea here: https://strms.net/ideas
Considering it's already a chat command variable I can only imagine it's possible
I'll do that, thanks
No problem 😃
Hey got a question!, every now and then when i swap scenes in OBS, OBS seems to crash outright and its only happened since I started using Stream elements is this a known issue at all?
Studio. 20.1.1 reason I thought it was stream labs was cus i was using Streamlabs stuff beforehand and had LOTS more resources being used up because of that x.x
depends on waht you're running. do you have your browser sources set to shutdown when not active?
I do yer
you should also probably try reinstalling obs just incase. i never hear of it crashing from scene swaps
alrighty thanks!
obs forums would be more helpful for crash stuff btw
they'll probably ask for your obs logs when crashes happen so keep those handy
(at least, the ones where it does crash)
I had it crash during scene swaps before but I found that it was generally happening when I did it via my Stream Deck
Or it could have been a coincidence
This was a couple of months ago or so though
It could happen if you have a lot of sources, I have heard that a few times
I did have a lot of sources back then 😄 heavily cut down on them
oh i wasn't in #helpdesk-twitch channel lol
now i am
so i have a tip list, but no top tip? 🤔
Could you delete the tips on StreamElements and re-import, please @lament blade
https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/streamlabs-export-to-stre/ieknafncicchjncjiegckipdjnakialh
I should probably bookmark that for giving people in the future
hey, is there a way to get subscribers count in .txt to use it in obs?
should i click the "Import Alerts" thingy? (if this import settings, they are not needed)
@rapid kettle hiyo :)
No, we only work with browsersource overlays to make your stream look amazing
no .txt files here
You don't need it in a text file, you can use the widgets we provide to pull the data from Twitch right into your overlay 😃
@lament blade Nope, not alerts
alright, thx! btw, do you have russian support? ;d i mean someone who speaks russian to help me with some things
reimported, but the date is just set to today
Yea, thats fine
Here
and now refresh aggregates again?
@rapid kettle ко мне по русски можно)
I just did it, it should be working @lament blade 😃
gimme a sec, i just rebooted my pc
kk works
just need to configure it
ty
np
Anyone have any idea why there is a Help bubble that shows up on my OBS... looks exactly like the one on the Stream Elements page
great you fixxed it compared to two weeks ago, where it just killed literally all my settings 
@novel wolf Are you using OBS Studio?
Yeah i am
thx
Right Click on your browser source, go to properties, scroll down and hit "Refresh Cache"
No problemo!
The loyalty... is it x points per $1 donated?
yes
Okay, thanks 😄
what browser is that?
Question, i have a song playing atm and its still saying "no song"
firefox @atomic hollow
@steel veldt is it from a backup playlist?
ye
@humble ether use Chrome please 
@steel veldt it only supports song requests currently
Firefox 
we are working on it
please fix yo shit XD hah, lol,, i just switched away from chrome, XD
Ok cheers
Our site is built to work best on Chrome, using other browsers has been known to cause issues like that
Firefox users 
the new firefox seems much better than chrome
and i have been using chrome for years

The overlay editor seems to be taking alot longer to load today
i like the new firefox as well, hella fast
OBS browser sources use Chromium, over 50% of people use Chrome, we will be looking to make other browsers more stable in the future but when Chrome is available to all and works fine it's not a priority currently
we are optimizing the site, its a work in progress
.But yeah,, like shouldn't this be top priority ? XD instead of anything else ? making sure everyone can use your site XD
everyone can, just use chroma 
Everyone can use the site if they use Chrome

asking people to change to chrome is like asking you to change away from chrome because of one site,, just saying 😃
i like this answer 
You don't have to use it indefinitely for everything, just when you're using our site
I use chrome anyway, but i wouldn't mind having a chrome browser open in the bg
I've been a pain the last couple days, sossry guys! I'm wondering if i can change raffle's command?
if its in the default commands tab under commands on the site you can
well you can add an alias i believe
if it is there
like its fine ill use chrome to turn the volume down on my alerts,, but just never seen any other site have such a vital part be broken XD
oh duh i didn't check, hold up
LEague 
Life or death 
@marsh niche yeah you can do it
outta here pleb
yup, thanks so much. i've been screwing with other bots and i've gotten used to doing everything the hard way 😉
Welcome to the easy way 
not gonna lie, as much as i'd love a custom bot name, the easy way just makes sense
@marsh niche were here to show you the easy way 😃
Is there a keybind for showing/hiding a widget? Instead of going through the layers?
so i read somewhere that if i'm using se overlays that it'll take a load off of my cpu
Yes, correct 😃 have everything in 1 overlay browser source instead of several 😃
As long as you shut down any overlays in hidden scenes you'll notice a sizeable difference 
hmmm
Is there anyway to preserve the twitch chat between scenes during a session? The only options I can think is either making each overlay persistant or having a seperate overlay for chat which is persistant and having the other overlays not persistant
Is there a way to make it so that it costs points to join a raffle?
That's currently the only way, yes @peak quarry
Make this cost points: https://www.onslaught.ca/s/jrcfr8ld.png
but everytime they do !join, they will be charged
even if there isnt one running

Hey! I have a question! Do u need help to translate our page into other languages?
What languages do you have in mind? 😃
German? :3
The overlay editor was loading fine yesterday, now it is taking forever, keep getting the page unresponsive message
is there a way to do a "Current Song" from YouTube?
@peak quarry Are you using Chrome with Hardware Acceleration enabled in the Advanced Settings?
@untold smelt As in have the current song name displayed from a playlist or something else?
correct
in order to conform to copyright, I want to display song title and artist info, while streaming
@tight harness Yes
No, basically every time the Current Song widget displays a song name it uses an API call, we have a limit of how many API calls we can make so we limit it to requested songs only @untold smelt
got it
@peak quarry Alright, turn off Hardware Acceleration then try 😃
Excellent news 😃
when i make kappagen overlay for emotes to appear on screen it just does this when i put it on OBS
Alright, what you need to do is right click on the overlay, click on Properties, then click on the Refresh Cache button
Yes
i cannot find refresh cache on properties
Are you using obs studio
am using classic do i need to use studio?
Yes
Studio > Classic
Classic hasn't been updated in over a year
oh
The devs no longer support it, I insist you upgrade to Studio 😃
I just wish Twitch would add FTL support
ill try move everything to studio i guess
Good idea 
You can use this to move your scenes etc over http://obs-converter.rodney.io/
oh thats good cheers
alright i converted everything and now i do it nothing ahppens
happens
Have you got everything as it was?
Awesome 😃
How do I turn off snapping when trying to arrange text boxes in the overlay manager?
There is a grid icon at the top right. 😃
Duh. Thanks. lol
@tight harness how long does it take for dubtrack.fm to recognize a dubtrack room name so I can make a personal dubtrack room for my stream?
The Waffle 
I call it the waffle 
Should be instantly @untold smelt
dubtrack room name is everything after the /join/ in the link
Ahh yeah, sometimes people the whole link in there, that's not necessary 😃

Any chance some more variables can be added?
To what in particular?
Song Length
To the currently playing widget?
yeah
Have you added it to the ideas board yet?
Consider adding it 😃 https://strms.net/ideas
i got the emotes to pop up on stream but when i get a follow and other alerts how do i make it pop up when that happens
You need to have the Alert Box widget in an overlay
ye i do
Ahh okay, wasn't sure from how you worded it 😄 well that's what the tick boxes are for in your Kappagen settings
ye there all ticked and sorry for my wording 
Can you DM me a screenshot of your settings?
on streamelements
Have you clicked on Select Emotes yet and selected some?
What resolution is the Kappagen overlay in OBS? Also, i'll DM you about how you can give me Editor access so I can have a look myself
I'd suggest not posting pictures with your overlay links in public channels
Also, check your DMs
I messaged you about giving me access to have a look
ok and whoops forgot
ye but i tested follow and it didnt pop up on obs the alert just popped up
This was from testing follow
Working 100% as intended
DM me with the settings for the overlay in OBS again please 😃
ok
can we make it so i dont have to turn off snapping every damn time XD

@neat hinge It's requested but not developed or implemented yet
@humble ether 
so just youtube yes?
Youtube, Dubtrack.fm and plug.dj
hi guys ive set up loyalty on s. e for my twitch and set it to crystals, i type !crystals and it says ive got zero even though ive been on half an hr, the loyalty is on and says viewers get 5 every 10mins.....also with me being owner how do i giv myself a huge amount to play with and give to people?
k all wright it down this time sorry lol
No problem 😄
are you woking on more?
@misty sparrow To give yourself points use either !addpoints <name> <number> or !bonus <name> <number> 😃
ok thx legendary, ive got ankhbot on also but thinking about just using s. e..... any suggestions?
.. for instance can i transfer info over or other stuff?
You can transfer points over from Ankhbot but you need to get the csv file with the points in, https://streamelements.com/dashboard/account/import then Import from CSV
oh and one last thing... obviously i hav 2 load up s. e when i have my twitch on, can i create a shortcut or a symbol on my laptop to save looking for it each time?
Looking for the website each time?
yeh thr points thing is new 2day so i dont have 2 worry about that
yeh lookin 4 it
do i not need to hav the site open each time my twitch is on?
For host alerts you either need the Activity Feed page open or the Ground Control desktop app, if you have Ground Control you don't need to have the site open
where would i find that?
ok im doin that now, thx a lot legendary, much appreciated 😁👍
No problem 😃
Another thing I'd suggest is connecting your Discord to your Twitch, it helps us find your profile when you need help. You go to User Settings > Connections
on my twitch or s. e?
On discord
where would i find user settings
@tight harness Is there a way that I can hide a box on my overlay when not in use? Like a webcam box or something?
It's the gear/cog just to the left of the chat box you type into on Discord
Just right of the mute sound icon (headphones)
@burnt anchor Yes, you see the eye next to each layer on the overlay manager? click on the eye and it'll toggle that layer being shown or hidden
@misty sparrow May work on your phone, have only tried it on my PC, it uses your Twitch login details to connect the two to my knowledge
legendary ive got ground control downloaded and tryin to set it up, its saying i have to enter jwt token in settings menu
That's right, you acquire that from the StreamElements website, here: https://streamelements.com/dashboard/account/information then tick Show secrets
Copy and pasted where it says JWT Token into Ground Control where it asks for that same token 😃
Got it?
@misty sparrow
ive copied the token, im in the page where i have 2 paste it and when i oress right click it isnt comin up for some reason, wont bring up option 2 paste
i think ive done it, now press reset?
Reset?
on settings page at bottom, ive pasted code, theres blue box at bottom that says reset session
Ohh, no you don't need to click that
wot do i do after pasting?
Why when some ppl tip it says Anonymous? I asked him he said it never showed a place to put his name
@misty sparrow Click on the left arrow in the top right and that's all 😃
@hallow harbor It does show a place to put their name
Hi! Im trying to change the comments that SE comes with during a raffle. But it keep change back to an earlier setting. Now i tryed to deactivate the module and change when deactivated maybe thats what needed?
ok, so ive got discord and ground control on my desktop, so i just basically open them when im streaming and hide them, then i hav access 2 ir support and s. e works too?
ok thank u sooo much, u hav been very patient and very helpful, massively appreciated buddy 😁👍
No problem at all 😃 happy to help
@cobalt galleon Did you know that there's 2 versions of Raffle? Are you sure you're changing the wording for both versions? You've got Single and you've got Multi
oh i 4got,so do i need to do anything with ankhbot if i had just recently started and nobody had points etc?
@tight harness ya i know but this is the single winner one im trying to change
@misty sparrow If you want to change over to SE and you don't have anything to bring over then no you don't need to do anything, just start fresh with SE 😃
@cobalt galleon I believe it's set so if not enough people enter for one of them it runs the other one instead, so may be worth changing the wording for both
The thing is that the single winning raffle i have set in swedish spoken words and the multi raffle i havent touched so its in the standard comments. Now i was gonna change the swedish words i put some time ago
but it keep changing back
So they're both in English right now when you check?
no the single one is in swedish but im trying to change it to annother sentence in swedish.
Just updated mine with no issues 🤔
When you click Save does it say that the module has successfully saved in the bottom right?
ya
It does says that it saves. But as soon as a raffle is started it says other words
in the chat
how do i set up raffle?
@cobalt galleon Hmm, I'd suggest a couple of things, log out and back into the site, and also Part the bot then get it to Join Channel again
Then give it a go
@misty sparrow https://gyazo.com/bddeba0825b1c5b3e683787513cdaf8a
All of your default commands are availabe here: https://streamelements.com/dashboard/bot/commands/default
That's where I got these screenshots from, give them a look
Ok ty @tight harness i will try! 😃
No problem 😃
that just shows me screenshot, im in raffle settings but i dont know what im doin
The last link I sent you takes you to your default commands, not a screenshot
The screenshots show you what you type in your stream chat to trigger a raffle
oh ok, i was just wondering what i do to pick winner, and wot i would do if i wanted people to enter using points
It picks a winner for you
oh so i just type !raffle then wait, how long does it give me?
!join is the command for joining a raffle, you can edit the !join command in your default commands by clicking on the Pencil icon for it and then add a Command cost for using that command
Does that make sense? 😃
so anyone else having trouble making access code store items?
yeh i can see the join, and then wen im ready to pick winner i type !raffle?
@prisma linden That's being worked on, it's a work in progress, don't worry about it for now 😃
@misty sparrow No you type !raffle to start the raffle, it picks a winner for you remember 😃
After the length of the duration you put in the raffle settings
Changed the giveaway to raffle? I don't understand
default command, ine called giveaway, i changed the word to raffle
Giveaways and raffles are different
You already have a !raffle command
You have a !giveaway command and you have a !raffle command, you shouldn't rename your !giveaway command to !raffle when you already have a !raffle command, that's just going to cause confusion
ok, I'll change that back, im really confused how to edit my raffle settings tho, sorry
Modules > Raffle > Settings to change the raffle settings, to add the cost click on the Pencil and change the Command cost but not the name
im in raffle settings, theres single and multi, how do i change raffle duration?
Do you not see where it says Duration? It's in the screenshot I showed you above
It's the first option
Top left
the screenshot just shows a box saying duration, im not sure wer 2 find it, in raffle settings?
In raffle settings yes
im really sorry about this, im thick lol
bloody hell it was right in front of me, i am sooo sorry!
😄
so wot is the diff between single and multi?
is that more than 1 channel or something?
Single means a single person will win, Multi means multiple people will win
oh ok, well i think im set, I'll leave u alone... for now! mwahahahaaarrrggh
yeh, on a serious note tho thx dude ur a legend 👍
Thanks for the nice words, appreciate it 
The extention still not online?
Time? it takes soo long!
No I've seen it!
But the panel is different then a "On screen" extention...
I hope that one will be far more impressive!
That's also in the works but the panel extension is further in development
Are you saying that you weren't impressed by the panel extension?
nono!
on my twitch it says that s. e is a viewer, shouldn't that b mod?
That's normal, I think... I've the same thing here
+1 viewer, that makes you go up further on the list!
@misty sparrow Yes, you have to mod it yourself, type /mod StreamElements in your Twitch chat
i did that, it says ive added s. e but it says that s. e is viewer
I don't know what your Twitch is yet so I can't check
(read my msg)
I did
yeh
wen i type things stream elements cones up in chat and says stuff
... but doesnt say its mod, just viewer
If I type /mod willobri it shows this: https://gyazo.com/465c5d3cc381e8d204a1c785ea34423c
The command is right 🤔
i typed it again and it says stream elements is already mid of this room
oh its working now
Ahh excellent 😃
must just take time, sorry bud
No problem, don't be sorry 😄
i hate wasting people's time or pestering people, I'm sure you have better things to do than put up with my shite all day lol
.. pardon my french
It's my role here to give support, happy to do it 😄
triggered

u must hav the patience of a saint! saying that tho, i stream d2 and sherpa people thru raids nightfalls strikes quests etc, fully completed it in 1st 2 weeks and every day since ive ran 2 3 or 4 raids nightfalls etc and helped tonnes of raid virgins, duno wer i get the patience 4 that so i suppose its a similar thing, i get real satisfaction wen i hear the joy and relief in their voices
mifght have been asked - is there a way to set custom alerts? so a customer GIF & music for a new follower for eg
This will help you @tribal tulip https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X7XrDdRE7Fk
@misty sparrow Sorry I was in a quick meeting 😃 yeah I hear that a lot 😄
Popout Activity feed is not dark mode ..
wait, let me check if that is a chrome vs firefox thing
nope, its not dark mode,
is this a bug ? or just not implemneted ?
how do you delete a custom command? I formatted it wrong and dont know how to update or delete it
Do you not see a trash can icon?
nope no trash can that is blatantly apparent
Is your window full screen or shrunk down?
were good now i found the scroll bar at the bottom 😄
my bad!
i was full screen though lol
No problem 😄 that was the next thing I was going to ask 😛 if you're full screen and you still don't see it then it's your resolution and that bar is the answer 😄
You're welcome 😃
Hey guys, can you reset a counter? Maybe it's super obvious and I missed it
Yes you can, what kind of counter?
dang, perfect, thank you @tight harness !
No problem 😃
hmmm so i copied the browsersource url to put into obs and
it doesn't fit the window?
And it still doesn't fit the window?
hold on i'll show you
Is the overlay 1080p on the site too?
To the proper place or not? 😮
mmmno
t's fine now though
that's what it look slike from the editor
which is right
wait
Can you use Spotify for song requests?
that's what it looks like in obs (sorry it has my old overlay in the bg
(i lied though the res is 1440 but it doesn't make a difference really)
@lament blade Not yet, currently you can use youtube, dubtrack.fm and plug.dj
@marsh niche You can use Ctrl + F on OBS to make it fit to screen 😃
Do you have the overlay selected in OBS when you do it?
yup
Hmm, because that key combination is for fit to screen
i know and the actual red box itself is fittingg to screen
the imagge of the overlay inside is what's staying the same size
🤔
is there a difference between canvas size and resolution?
Canvas should be the same as the monitor resolution if you want it to be full screen
where do i find canvas size?
Well if your monitor is 1920 x 1080 then your canvas size is 1920 x 1080 for example
If you go to Settings > Video it should show you what it's set to currently
trying again
well it was close to the right resolition (off by 200px because i forgot to swap the canvas size)
but nothingg was working so i reloaded the page
and now everythingg is scaled tooooootally different lol
gonna try to fix that and see what happens
Good luck 😄
howdy good people?
Hey 
how do i create a giveall command for my point system to reward the whole chat when im streaming on twitch? any ideas
You do !addpoints all <number> or !bonus all <number>
nice, is it already set or do i need to create this command
Already set 😃
gucci, thanks for all the help @tight harness
No problem 😄
Only 40? 
Why is the activity feed so bad at detecting hosts? It misses the majority I get. I also sometimes misses follows but not quite as often. I'm not slamming the service, in fact I love StreamElements, just want to know if this is a known issue or what could be the cause?
lol I usually am around 13-19
Do you have the activity feed open when these hosts happen? @viral gale
Either that or Ground Control ⤴ 😃

cool. Great, thanks a lot.
No problemo


follow events arnt showing up at all
any tips?
like not even pulling into dashboard or GC
I'm in your channel now, from what I can tell your latest follower widget picked up the latest follower at least 🤔
The conversation you're having with your chat 
- sticks around for smart man *
Heya can I only use YouTube for song requests or also Soundcloud playlist? If not yet is that going to become a feature?
It's Youtube, Dubtrack.fm and Plug.dj currently
still not working...
pretty frustrating to spend hours doing soething for it not to work hah
It all seems fine on the overlay manager right?
🤔
that's after fitting it to screen lol
with the proper resolution in both obs and SE editor
Ok thanks I hope ya all put out a memo I can see when you add Soundcloud to the song requests. I'll still use SE for the sfx commands & KappaGen! ❤ 😃
@formal tusk check #270206314561404928 or #announcements from time to time
Sounds good.
Is there any form of protection for streamers with your terms of service on a streamers tipping page?
for charge backs or refunds etc?
There's a message with each tip that says "thanks for the tip" so it's clear that each donation is a tip, if somebody does a chargeback you'll still have to fight it but this will get you started with proving it's purpose
We are looking at alternative payment methods, some of which may end up offering more substancial chargeback protection, we'll have to see 😃
@next spruce You can also add something like this in your panel, like Legendary said, you'll still need to fight the chargeback, but since you warned your viewer, it might be easier There are no products or services rendered or exchanged for your donations. By donating, you agree to not chargeback/refund any tips made and are the rightful owner of the funds being donated. You are not paying for a virtual product and not covered with buyer protection. All donations are final!
Thanks - is there no way we can add that on the actual tipping page?
Not really, it's entirely preference and it wouldn't really fit on the tipping page in the allocated description space i'm pretty sure
you can add it in the tip memo field, this way it will be displayed on your tipping page
May need to cut it down a bit in that case 😄
yup, prolly, not sure about the character limit
Can't remember the character limit
@silk patrol can you send me pm picture where to find this?I'm on phone and don't want to forget it until tomorrow
sure
Thanks
I'm trying to make an emote command but my emotes won't show up in chat, just appears as text (and yes I typed it in right)
Is the bot subbed to your channel yet?
how do you "sub" it?
@grizzled sail You have to be a twitch partner, and ask twitch to do it for you
ah, so no luck for affiliates
Affiliates could have it, but it's not as simple as that, with sub gifting it's possible
but it'd still require someone paying $25/mo for the bot
They only let partners have it for free
thanks for the response! glad it wasnt someone dumb i was just overlooking
By they I mean Twitch, it's completely out of our hands
is the site ungodly slow for everyone?
fine on my end
Are you using Chrome with Hardware Acceleration enabled in Advanced Settings?
Chrome
And the last bit?
dunno about hardware but every other site is fast
Check it, if it's enabled then disable it 😃
You just go to Settings then scroll down to the Advanced settings
I mean.. why should I have to change Chrome around for one site?
i ask for.. science.
Because that setting is caused the issue and if you don't want the issue you have to make changes, the issue isn't the site, it's that the settings isn't always beneficial, like in this case.
Understood, BUUUUTTTT.. every other site works completely fine but SE.
and I have to make a setting change to my browser to get "one" site to work
Every other site that you've seen works completely fine but SE
tells me it's not the broswer but the site, what makes this site different than others
Doesn't mean none of the others are better without that setting 😃
Again, it's not to get one site to work, I'm explaining it to you, please read what I'm telling you and you'll hopefully understand
"Google Chrome supports GPU hardware acceleration, which means it doesn't need to rely solely on the CPU to render web pages. This should be a good thing, and it should speed things up. ... If you're experiencing performance issues with the browser, here's how to turn off (or on) GPU hardware acceleration in Chrome."
I have a 1080 and love the support of the GPU hehe
I have a 1080, and I turned that setting off and experienced a much better time with it off
@north flare you don't have to believe us. give it a try, and you'll maybe experience better loading on every website you visit
See the magic for yourself, non-believer 
I can say that in my case with it off it actually is worse loading, but I also have dual 1080 Tis... so that could be part of it
lol I just like getting the performance out of my $600 video card lol
all good.. I will try it
There's only a few cases where hardware acceleration helps tbh
I have a 1080 and I turn it off too
1070 and it's off too
alrighty.. I will drink the kool aid
when my entire computer blows into the atmosphere because it's running SO much faster.. I will thank you.
/sarcasm
😃
it's disabled.
Hey, noticed thetotal subsriber count widget is broken. {count} should pull the total count of subs on a channel. But it's literally showing {count} as text. Is there a way to fix this?
Delete and readd the widget @jade breach
Ok, thank you
I'm having the same issue with the total follower count. It is only showing the total number of followers for the day. Not the total number overall. I've deleted the widget and readded and have the same issue. I've even created a new overlay with the same issue.
Does anyone know how to change the capitalization of your SE account? Theme automatically Pulls it and its all undercase.
@stoic wren Make sure you are using the "Total Followers" widget and not the "Follower count" widget
@devout hedge you can just edit the text and replace it with your twitch name if it's not capitalizing correctly. Also it may be the font(?)
@silk patrol I am using the total followers widget. Have been for several weeks now. And today its only showing the total followers that followed today
Yeah wasn't sure if there was another way, thanks @pine hemlock
also check your numbers on the data page, if they are wrong, click on reset session to refresh the data
my firend just got affiliated a couple days ago but he doesnt have the sub loyalty bonus/cheer stuff on the streamelements dashboard yet?
Where is the Data page?
@zenith marten tell him to log out and log in
@zenith marten have him log out of stream elements and back in
you can either access it using the widget data button on the activity feed page (https://streamelements.com/dashboard/session) or in any of your overlays, it's at the top next to widgets
@serene granite @pine hemlock rgr thanks
That worked @silk patrol Thanks!
@shy knoll are you downscaling your output to something like 720p? also your bitrate might be too high. Shadowplay uses your GPU as well as presets based on your hardware, OBS uses your CPU by default and requires you to set those things up. Also, try to keep this kind of things in #welcome to avoid flooding the #helpdesk-twitch channel. Thanks
need help
ask and we shall answer @sonic wadi
i wanna start streaming right?
never did it before
can you help me set it up?
i got obs already
but i cant figure out how to record my screen
my overlay manager isnt working, when i attempt to edit an overlay the page it loads is completely blank
any help?!?!
@everyone
@rapid tapir
@vivid pendant are you using chrome?
also, @ everyone won't work in here, and Cbenni doesn't work on the overlay manager 😃
good to know, and yes i am
try to refresh the cache with CTRL+SHIFT+R, also make sure you disable hardware acceleration in the chrome advanced settings, it's been causing issues lately
Can u black list select viewers to NOT song request?
@swift sky unfortunately no, you can only restrict it to user levels
I have some reoccurring issues with the stream elements not that doesn't track my notifications/alerts untill they are pushed 2-3 times? For example yesterday I have 5 hosts and only 2 came through as well as the people hosting aren't getting the points through the loyalty system that I have assigned? Any ideas.
Are you only having issues with host alerts? Do the others work fine
from what i have seen through my streams everything else works. but i have had times where followers didnt come through in chat but i got a twitch email saying i got a new follower. so i would say the alerts
They we recieve host data is via the activity feed or our Ground Control app - do you have one of these open while you're streaming?
If not, it would explain the missed host alerts
nah i dont use that, i cant recall ever using it ? but it has been fine since you guys started just as of recent? so what do you suggest i do ?
When we did our site redesign there was a way for your twitch information to be leaked, so we had to remedy that problem and change the way we handled hosts in order to keep everyone safe.
So the two options are
https://streamelements.com/groundcontrol This is our desktop app. It has your activity feed built into it, along with songrequest management and hotkeys to skip songs/alerts
The other method is just keeping this webpage open: https://streamelements.com/dashboard/activity (it has a popout button if you want a smaller version)
The desktop app is the easiest though.
As for loyalty points not being given, this might be a result of not having one of those open as well (for host bonus)
If you really dont like anything extra ran on your pc you could keep the webpage open on your phone or a laptop or an ipad, anything really
okay that could explain why when i dont get hosts but when i had the main page of the dashboard open i got the host.
so all i need is that webpage logged in, open to recieve the information on my stream, will you guys fix this as i dont realy want to have the page open sometimes? but i guess that isnt a super big deal :)
oh also TTS on bits isnt woorking for me either?
We haven't gotten a clear answer on how we're going to be able to handle it without the activity feed being open, but its somthing we obviously want to go back to.
TTS for bits. can you check the variations for the bits and make sure they all have TTS enabled in their options as well
Those both use a lot of resources, so depending on your system it might cause performance issues.
If you want to cut down on cpu usage with kappagen heres a guide https://streamelements.helprace.com/i256-kappagen-using-a-lot-of-cpu
My follower coun is showing as 1 on my overlay instead of 332
Are you using follower count or total followers widget?
or follower goal?
@livid ingot
Is it possible to make the bot auto join chat everytime you go live?
@livid ingot refreshing your session should force twitch to update data
Ok lemme try that
@upper dome no, but the bot doesn't leave unless you tell it to part
Oh so once it joins its in for good? Even if I dont stream for like a day or something?
How do i refresh the session? make the bot leave and join again?
cloudbots 
It will leave once in a while for snacks (downtime) but for the most part it remains in the channel
Ah thanks 😄
@livid ingot right side of the activity feed
And is possible to only use it for loyalty and chat commands? I have no interest in the donations and other features
There we go, 332 Showing 😃
Does anyone know why my sub sound/donation sounds are echoing?
@upper dome you can use as much or as little as you'd like although the idea is to be an all-in-one solution
@devout hedge OBS running as well as the editor?
Does the banned words filter have basic words already?
it does not
I assume I comma each one? "Word, Word2" ?
you enter the world/phrase and press enter after each one
Ah okay thanks for all the help 😃
Hmm, how strict is the filter? If I do a word, and that word happens to be part of another word, will it still count?
no, but you can use a wildcard * to ban words that contain something
example: meme* will ban meme, memer, memelord, etc.
Okay thanks 😃
@clever mango Yes, but I have the editor muted
@devout hedge Check all overlays in all OBS scenes.They should all have ☑ shutdown source when not visible https://i.imgur.com/6bWXxjR.png
Hello i need help

Hello i have a bug on my stream when i try to use the roulette , if you could find someone who speak spanish that would be incredible
@weak nebula Hola, @olive lintel can provide spanish support when he is online
@olive lintel is online now?
Not right now. He will send you a message when he is back.
Okay but maybe i can try to explain you what its my problem
Sure
@clever mango That's what it was, appreciate it my (wo)man!
Hola, estoy llegando a casa en 5 min :) @weak nebula
hey is there a way to get a ticker showing recent events? like, one that scrolls, instead of one that is just events stacked on top of each other? also, i keep getting a "bad key" error with my overlay
like, it shows the overlay, but theres also "bad key" in black text in the upper left
oh nm
thats a different overlay
for a different service
but im still curious about the scrolling ticker thing
No scrolling ticker like you describe but the idea could be added as a customization for the event list widget https://strms.net/ideas
I like it
i need help with an overlay problem
it is like cutting the overlay in half on obs and i cant seem to fix it
Why are you streaming at that resolution?
idk how anything works
😦
i need help
alot of it
i cant fiure anything out at all
the bigger problem here is that your monitor aspect ratio appears to be 4:3 when the overlays are 16:9. This means the overlay will not fill your OBS canvas
do you know your monitor's resolution?
1280 by 768
go into obs settings, then video
yeah
what do you see for canvas resolution?
1280 x 1024
ok here are the options...
- Purchase a new monitor with a 16:9 aspect ratio - ex. 1920x1080, 1280x720, 2560x1440
- Change your game resolution to 1280x720 (16:9) and your OBS canvas and output to 1280x720. Your game will not fill your screen but the game and overlay will fill the OBS canvas and stream
add your camera
place it below the overlay where the frame is
Any date on when the No Song playing thing when using a playlist will be fixed?
Hey team can anyone help me with the alert noises. I have a customer one set but it still plays the chimes as well.
custom*
@steel veldt No ETA. We opt out of displaying it cause it costs API points, and youtube isnt giving us many
@carmine abyss Double click the source and refresh the cache
@stuck hamlet Will try that and get back to you, thanks for the help!
Ok removed the source, readded it. open and closed OBS, cleared cache and it still does it.
OBS is also up to date
https://i.imgur.com/6bWXxjR.png @carmine abyss
all browser sources need the checkbox checked
also any overlay that is open can play sound (editor, launched in browser, OBS)
brower one is muted via chrome as i always test
double checking those settings now
I have those exact same settings
It has to be an OBS setting
how many browser sources have you added to OBS?
I have just muted OBS and unmuted the brower version and its perfect in the browser version
Just the one
other scenes have no overlays?
the starting one does
im just going into it now to make sure it doesnt have any alert box widget
as it shouldnt as it is simply a count down timer
so i have checked my starting scene and it didnt have the alert box so i added it and turned off all the notifications and saved it
still makes that noise in obs but not in the browser version
its very very off
odd* will be a weird setting somewhere i feel
Is it possible that the first overlay has two alertboxes?
If it doesn't double click the overlay in OBS to open properties and scroll down to refresh cache.Then test again
It does but within the different alert boxes different things will show. There is no duplicates
for eg one alert box shows sub and follow and the other shows tips and host etc
click save in the editor, refresh cache of the overlay in OBS
double click the overlay and then scroll down to refresh cache
done
Just tested it and it still does it
I am going to delete the starting overlay
and see if it does it
it was the starting scene
but there was no alert box in that overlay
Is there a way to stop this?
the only way something like that would happen is if either save wasn't pressed after deleting something or the cache was old on the overlay page and needed a refresh
When creating a raffle: do you have to have a ongoing message about time left ? i tryed take it away but it doesnt seem to work.
Can't be disabled
ok ty 😃
What would this channel be? @lament blade
Can you ask her to sign out and sign back in?
no, shes asleep
I'm looking in her settings, and her totals are off, there's no way for me to forcefully refresh this :/
okay, so she has to relog
I believe her twitch token for her site is expired. First time i see this issue
Well i hope that fixes it. I will have to escalate to a dev if it doesnt fix it
But it seems like that should fix it
yea, 1k
Alright
does that mess up that bot?
I doubt that has anything to do with it, but maybe
Our Bot? no.
Just seems like a regular Twitch Token being expired in our system.
This happens over time or if she changed her password
okay, so when she relogs it should work
should
okay np, ill message her
😃
if it doesnt ill get her in here lol
👌 sounds good 😃
@lament blade
fixed?
lol ^
i only sleep 2hrs, thats why I was here, will update you guys after I try what you told me
Hey, quick question. Can I use hypertext for a link with one of my bot's timed messages rather than having the entire URL appear?
Twitch doesn't support HyperText
So if I want a timed message in my chat, I'll have to show the entire URL?
Or does StreamElements support markdown?
You need the full url. When it comes to chat stuff, a lot of the times it about what does Twitch support.
Twitch doesnt support Hyper links or markdowns for chat
Gotcha. Thanks for the help!
No problem 😃
hi i have a question
Hello
how can i add a youtube song without the link to the songlist so my chat can add songs like that too
Like typing the name of the song without the link
We currently do not support that, because we have a limit with the youtube api, but we have a slight work around, let me get it for you 😃
okay
So with this command you can search for a song, it will return the id, and then you can request the song with the id.
!command add !search Here's your video id: $(customapi.https://decapi.me/youtube/videoid?search=$(queryescape $(1:)))
Okay thank you so much for the help sir
No problem 😃
Will there be anything like that in the future ?
Of course, we are currently limited, but we are hoping youtube plays nice with us :p
They should you guys are really supportive of them
We hope to be even more soon 😃
Thanks for all your kind help and if i have any more questions ill let you know and have a wonderful day/night
Have a wonderful day as well 😃
Streamelements is a lobg name
And for some streamers they prefer use bots with short names...
@stuck hamlet
Thank you for the feedback, but we have no plans on changing the name.
GO and JS.
GO?
Yes.
Just for knowing
Im a dev :p
And if are hosted in node maybe you should try java

I am new to Stream Elements and streaming in general. I've been messing around with the overlays all this afternoon and I thought I had gotten everything set up but there were a few issues. 1. The gif I used for follower alert is not showing up in the live stream, only the sound is activated. 2. The gif I used for cheer is trailing? It's showing all the frames of the gif even though I've verified it's not like that anywhere else. However, this same alert won't save the image or sound I set for it regardless. When I press emulate, it shows the default gif and sound. 3. My tip alert plays the sound twice? It plays and then half a second later starts again on top of the first one.
Scratch the trailing gif part. I managed to find the issue.
i must be blind. i just saw that Access-codes is now part of rewards in the stream store! super happy to see, but i cant see where i should put my codes. i figure im just blind though. could anyone help me?
- Does it show on the overlay manager? 2. As you said you found the issue. 3. Do you have an overlay not shutdown when hidden?
ah, it just isnt working for my old reward, but if i make a new one i get to put in the codes
@fluid bison That's actually a work in progress
oh boy but its in the works. awesome!
@fluid bison it should be ready to use today
im seeing it as available if i create a new reward, i just cant edit my existing reward with codes. think the new reward will be buggy or is it working for new instead of existing right now?
@fluid bison As Shadow said it should be ready to use today 😃
wooo
- Yes, it does show on the overlay manager. It replaces the default image with the one I uploaded and selected for it. 2. Just the first part is fixed. It still won't change the image and sound to what I uploaded and selected. It's showing the default gif and the default sound when I press emulate even though the manager shows my selections.
If you see the default image instead of your image at all it's going to be because you haven't edited the Variation Settings yet, that's where you add Variations
Okay, that one is fixed. Thank you. 😃
All that's left is number one
This is an issue I'm having when the stream is live.
It won't show the gif or the text when there is a new follower but it will play the sound.
So that issue is that you see something fine in the overlay manager but not in OBS? 🤔
Ahh, okay
I mean, what you see in the overlay manager is played in a browser source which is captured by OBS, so if it's working on the overlay manager then it's working in general, the issue must stem from a setting in OBS I'd imagine
Got a problem with alerts. Webm videos don't loop they just freeze for the last seconds of alert, they used to loope before, any ideas? BlessRNG
I'll ask around, I don't actually have any webm files to test with
tbh ability to add webm videos instead of gifs is one of the greatest features 😄
😄
@dense reef Okay so I have some news. 1) you can play with the alert duration to fix things, and 2) we're releasing two additional settings for ALERT TEXT DURATION soon for extra configurability 
heya i have a question 😃 yesterday i changed my twitch name and now my commands are not working. any idea why?
Because you changed your name, you need to log out of the website, log back in and then tell the bot to Join your channel again
@tight harness i done that already but didnt work
yeah it happened when i changed my name as far as im aware 😒
Then you need to log out of the website, log back into the website, if it says the bot is in the channel, click Part Channel then click Join Channel
Then your commands will work again
This happens often with people changing their names all the time, this is the fix 😃
Awesome 😄
@tight harness thanks!
No problem 😃
I could use some help with Stream Elements giveaway if someone is around
Sure, tell us more about it @nimble granite
What seems to be the problem?
tell the doctors where it hurts

any help
how do i see the full number of new followers for the latest month
i think the statistics is bugged
I'll DM you with a way to do this
ty
No problem 😃
Any news on the acces-list ? It's still not working
Would be great to give out codes for loyalty poins
Hoping to have it all up and running as intended today

Hi i need help, i have been talking with Tal who has been a great help getting me started but im having an issue getting top tip to update the widget is there but it says no data
Have you checked whether you've got it set to session, weekly, monthly or all-time? 😃
i feel so dumb lmao
Was that it? 😄
yup
Awesome, well at least you've got it now 😃
i used to use streamlabs, and nightbot so this is all new to me
It's fine, we're here for you 

after a 6 hour stream of streamlabs being an arsehole i need to get rid lmao

also how do you set up resub alerts
Go to your Alert Box on your overlay manager, click on it, click on Variation Settings
You can add Variations for subs of x amount of months 😃
im confused
About which part?
never mind i got it

thank you
No problem 😃
Hey. Anyone experiencing wrong data in the mails? Subs doesn't show anymore under revenue + the amount of new followers is wrong too?
Yesterday it said I got 1 new, but I actually got 4. I also got a sub, but it doesn't show that
did they all pop up during the stream while you were live?
I just checked my report and it all seems right 🤔
Yeah they did @serene granite
can you forward that email to me please, noam@streamelements.com
Yeah. I also got a few bits + 1 sub the stream before this one and they didn't show either. Do you want that email too?
yes
also, please log out and log in and when you get your next email check it througholy and PM me if there were still issues, and even if there wernt
Oh wait, the bits and donation went through (2 days ago), only the sub didn't
I'm not complaining and it's hilarious but does anyone know why the speech bot for subs speaks in russian only when subs are gifted? 
Really?
That's a new one
ive downloaded the desktop app and it only shows donations?
It shows all if you tick all
