Hello I am getting a new pc that i can truly Stream on and was wondering if someone could help me set up the best settings for obs
i know how to work obs for the most part but some stuff trips me up
Best would be asking OBS, they have their own discord ๐ discord.gg/obsproject @coarse relic
oki thank you
hi alice
@lament blade So you put your overlay on OBS? and any alert is working but redemptions?
any alert works just kappagen and some widgets
i think i have solved the problem, first i did uninstall OBS and then Clean the regedit from ANYTHING that had with OBS to do, then reinstalling it, Using x264 codec to stream to my other PC with NDI but i changed so insted of having 1080p output to the stream PC and then downscale that to 720 i went directly for 720p on my GamePC and then i just used Stream PC to stream to twith with 720p without downscaling
i just need the reedemptions alert
and now it seem to work fine with Facecam aswell as BrowserSource overlay
@lament blade Did you add the Widget called 'Store Redemptions' yet?
Yes, and if i do a test redemption it shows up but if its a real redemption it doesnt
What are the store items as? it will only show if it's as stream perk
If you make them "sound effect" or access code, it won't
โคด and could you tell me your twitch username?
its an acces code
That's why then ๐
can someone do me a small favor thou, go into my stream and see if it laggs for the wiever or not
Those won't show alerts ๐ฆ
Only Stream Perks should show on the overlay
๐ฆ i need to make a random number redemption with alerts
I'm watching @lament blade
in stream perks i cant i thinj
So far, everything is smooth
No buggering
LOL
WHAT IS THAT WORD ALICE?

@lament blade That's not really what it's for, it's meant more for people to be able to redeem game keys etc, sounds like an idea: https://strms.net/ideas
@tight harness i want to do like a "premium raffle" you buy a ticket and you get a random number, i got a board with the rewards and their numbers in my wall
Yea, it's still not buffering for me @lament blade ๐ you should be fine then
just wanna give a big thnx to Tomathin and TerraBuck for trying to help em solve the issue, and aswell thank you alice, for cheking my stream to see if it works ๐
I got some credit 
No problem 
That's what we are here for 
๐

and i gues the quality is good enough aswell ๐
Yep, looked really smooth
so would be kinda foolish of me to try to increase the quality eaven more ๐
was pleasant to watch
awsome
now i only need to work on playing the game good XX
See, smoooooooooooooooth
๐
Good luck on streaming c;

thnx :D.. al thats needed now is a new webcam and a bettre mic ๐
Maybe some lights too ๐
So, im going through the default bot commands. For quotes. its says its for everyone, but do you have to be a mod to remove / add quotes still?
@valid geyser Yes
okay thanks
or something like that, so its kinda shitty :p
I've got 2 x Logitech C920 webcams ๐
Used to have one facing out of my window, I called it Sky Cam 
send one to me then ๐
hmm, is there a way for me to see a page w/ all the quotes that were added? for chat to referance to
outside of me making a custom one
haha
Not currently, although we definitely want to make one
gotcha
Are the Store Perk Alerts in the Store working for anyone else?
I'm having issues with things popping up and doing their sound effect.
Sound effect is just a sound, there's no pop-up for it
Yeah, but the Store Perk should show the image.
You just need to add the Store Redemption widget to your overlays for it to play
I have it, but it doesn't pop up.
Am I alright to test it?
Sure.
It works in the overlay.
But it doesn't work for the things I have in the Stream Store.
Which overlay?
In Game Scene.
Alright
I can replay Sub and Follow alerts, donations, etc.
Just not the Store Redemption stuff.
are you testing with the "store redemption" button, or are you actually redeeming?
We did both, both worked
because the only way I know to test is the actually redeeming

It's like I turned up and the issues were like 

quick question. I was going through my emails and on the 30th I had a tip that never showed up in stream elements and still is not there, is there a way for me to add that so the next time they are on I can replay it and thank them? or is it just gone for a notification?
@BucketOfSunshine#4719 if you go to yout tip list, you can manually add a tip for the same amount, and mark it as imported
then it will show up on your activity feed, and you can replay the alert
Hello, My emote flow won't stay active. Every time i go back to chat stats it is unselected.
Thank you so much @weary mist I forget about that part. I will get this yet. ๐
You mean this? @pale linden https://gyazo.com/74995a984fa465040325e260e6e1e66d ๐ค
Any chance MP4 support for videos is being worked on? It's annoying to have to always convert to an MP3 to upload.
@uncut sapphire Tried webm? that's what we use for our super themes
I don't recall hearing anything about mp4s
I'd have to convert to webm as well
Yeah, just you said mp3 which is only sound, so I assumed you weren't aware of the webm video format
Oh mispoke
still remains the same though you don't support mp4 which is the most common video file
my songrequests are broken! only mods can request them and youtube is whitelisted as allowed links. Won't work with link protection on eather. and when the first song ends the whole que resets and nothing else plays
@ionic summit What did you set as the level of people to use song requests in the song request settings?
How would I add a count command? Like for example if I wanna keep track of the amount of wins I have in a game or the amount of deaths etc.
like 300
nvm i think i figured it out
@cloud plinth Awesome, sorry answering 2 live chats, was hoping somebody else was around to help 
Lol actually I do need help
I was wondering if someone could help me with the songrequest settings.
Yes @tight harness
Songrequests is enabled but for some reason when a user requests a song, it ends up with !sr *** and: you must provide a valid youtube id or url
@cloud plinth Seen these variables yet? ๐ค
oh okay i got it, thank you!
@ionic summit 300 is Regulars which is above Subs (250), that's why
No problem ๐ @cloud plinth
okay hello ๐ so i m wondering , this question is probably been asked like 10000 times, but what is the command to at the current time for a streamers country

@surreal spoke That means you need to disable the option in your Twitch settings which deletes links, it's in here: https://www.twitch.tv/settings/channel
@shy aurora Which timezone? I'll tell you mine and I think that'll help you work it out
The variable is ${time.Europe/London}
@tight harness okay, so now my users can request songs but now the error goes: could not add song: The requested song is too long when I've put the limit on 8 minutes, and the requested songs are not 8 mins...
What did you actually put in the max time box?
If you put 8 then you actually set it to 8 seconds
It's fine, lots of people have done that recently if that makes you feel any better 
Thank you. It does make me feel better haha
i cant upload any IMAGESA
What browser?
chrome (incognito mode)
Okay so I just logged in as you using Chrome and uploaded
without any issues
Which account?
woah
No issues
hello everyone i've been having problems with the host notification
Done @lament blade
Do you have the activity feed open anywhere during your streams? @hushed quartz
today an yesterday someone hosted me and it didnt show up in the overlay nor on the streamelements .........
i give you a screenshot
i dont have any problems with tips, follows or other alerts
Yes, host alerts need the activity feed open, just the host alerts
Check the pinned messages of this channel, it's the second one down
It explains exactly why this is
okay thank you
No problem 
so i need to have the streamelements page open?
You need just one of these 3 things open:
- SE Dashboard page - https://streamelements.com/dashboard
- SE Activity Feed page - https://streamelements.com/dashboard/activity
- Ground Control desktop app - https://streamelements.com/groundcontrol
If one of those are open it's all good ๐
okay thank you
Ground Control is useful to have open anyway, not only does it come with the activity feed it also allows you to do your song requests from there too
does it consume cpu? because im a little bit short of that
It doesn't consume much, it's probably better than having a page open for the activity feed and a page open for the song requests, just 1 app instead
Question with ground control, is it possible to have the backup playlist play with ground control? Its working great on the site, but its no where to be seen in ground control
im streaming pubg and that motherf*** uses cpu as hell
@hushed quartz Yeah sadly PUBG isn't very well optimised yet 
@bright tartan If you put the Backup Playlist link in the settings page on the site it loads it in Ground Control as well
hmm any idea why it wouldnt load for me?
Never heard of that issue, I use it daily myself without issues, check you're on the latest version, also you can try deleting the Ground Control folder in your %appdata% folder and then reloading it
a force close and reopen of ground control seems to have started it up, thanks
one more question
on overlay widgets there is a now playing for plug.dj, but is there anything for the song requests to put a now playing in the overlay other than a video with media share?
The same widget displays requested song names, you just choose the song request option instead of plug.dj
ok thanks for the support!
sorry to bother you again but how do i change my botname because when i do this.
this happens
You need to log in as your bot when you request the OAuth key
okay so i need to create an account with the name of the bot
Yes
Yes
Then you need to be logged into it when you click on the option to create the OAuth
Otherwise it uses your current account
@tight harness but the songrequest thingy didnt work when it was on 2 eather..
okay but after that i don t need to keep using that account right?ยฟ
and do i have to log into that account via ground control?
@ionic summit You don't set the level requirement for the command in your commands page, you set it in your song request settings page
@tight harness ik..
But you're telling me numbers when you only set numbers in the commands page
You set an actual user level in the song requests settings page
does the Now Playing not work with the backup playlist? Tried with ground control and songrequest page open on site. Any suggestions?
I can look into it anyway, it'll be a lot easier
@tight harness https://gyazo.com/acee24d78ea48b3fab369760197d1110'
You have a quite low maximum song duration @ionic summit
Only for requested songs, not backup playlist ;.; @bright tartan
damn, thanks
Whadup guys, quick question: Is their a quick fix to where all alerts work exept for hosts from twitch?
cool, hopefully it'll make it to the in developement board ๐
Twitch doesn't have a "notification system" for hosts (unlike follows, subs, raids, etc.) so the only way for StreamElements to know that you are being hosted is to connect through you to twitch. This connection is made on:
- SE Dashboard page - https://streamelements.com/dashboard
- SE Activity Feed page - https://streamelements.com/dashboard/activity
- Ground Control desktop app - https://streamelements.com/groundcontrol
Please have one of these open during your stream in order to receive host event notifications.
Yea. ๐
Hello!
Hey!
@bright tartan It's to do with our limit on how many API calls we can make to Youtube's API currently, should increase in the future then we can revisit the idea
but i have ground control open, it dosent even show in the activityt feed?
Can we help you with anything? @soft flame
yes plz!
I'm just setting up to stream and this service looks awesome! My question is if you provide this service for free, how do you monetize?
ahh ok cool @tight harness I had that issue with some scripts I was writing a while back
its kind of one of those. "if its too good to be true" type things
@soft flame Absolutely free, yes. We are funded by some very awesome investors currently and we have no intention of ever charging streamers or their viewers for anything
It is too good but it's also true 
o.0
okay now im conected to my bot account and in the ground control i think my main acount
its free and the best one I've used to date
do i have to log in ground control into the bot account?
Samsung are just one of our amazing investors, we're well backed financially, you don't need to worry about that ๐
okay
whelp. i guess i have a couple other questions. I'm using an elgato capture card to stream from my ps4. Is there anything that would cause things to get wonky?
@soft flame Wonky? No, plenty of people stream using our service and Elgato capture cards ๐ no known issues
sweet! lol I was just thinking of graphic getting in eachothers way
@vale knoll Do you see other events in your activity feed in ground control?
whelp. Im going to download and join the community. Thank you so much!
Did anyone host you during your stream yesterday?
No problem at all 
and when i compare the streamelements list to my activity feed on streamlabs, the only thing missing is hosts
yes
@clever mango Yes Kappa
And ground control was running the entire stream yesterday?
i belive so

xD
If it wasn't when you got a host that would cause them to not be received since one of the three has to be open when the host occurs
I'm happy to test this if you want to go live briefly
or I'll pop in during your next stream
hmm, i asked my friend to host me just now, even tho im offline, and the sound worked, but not the alert
It came through
because I assume you have GC open right now
and if you don't I have your activity feed open 
@clever mango Yes, but only the activity, the actual alert never showed, prolly cuz im offline or something
Alerts are separate thing entirely
Yes
A) you're offline and B) It was for 0 viewers and alerts are set to only show for 1+
I'll check your alertbox settings
yeah, but the song i have for hosts, witch i cut down to like 4 seconds, played, from i dont know where, and it played the whole song, and i could not skip it #creepedout
Which overlay are you working in right now?
@vale knoll Is it possible to create custom moduouls ?
its called "REDJUAN - RED FLARE IN GAME SCENE" but i only use it for the allerts, the rest of the overlay i made myself
@lament blade It is not at this time
Even if you know programing ?
@lament blade Thank you for your question, but i'm not affiliated with StreamElements, so i dont know Kappa
Correct, the idea has been added to https://strms.net/ideas and you're welcome to upvote it
looking now @vale knoll
I'm going to play some test alerts
seems good
Like the song? Kappa

hahaha, thanks alot man, cya around โค
some aspects may not work on IE
Hello! Is there any way to set up the chat widget so that it's similar to Streamlab's boxed chat theme, where each individual message has a background but the background of the actual widget is transparent?
Not yet, though more options are planned for it and other widgets
If you make the chat widget custom it will at the very least make it fully transparent ๐
that is: selecting custom in chat themes
Yeah, I'm aware of the custom option. I was looking for a way to have each comment easy to read in front of any background but have the box out of the way when there isn't a new message. I suppose I'll wait for the update. Thanks!
we appreciate your paitence
Can't expect everything to be perfect at once. You guys have already done so much. I can wait a little longer for this one.

any chance on getting response character limits raised to like 500? or 450?
on commands?
I haven't heard much about that unfortunately you can always add it to our ideas page ๐
but someone else uses it in their SE commands so not sure how they got it to fit
๐ค
It's restricted, so raising the limit isn't really an option sadly
hmm i will have t ask them how they did it then lol
its ascii
maybei can make it shorter, somehow
hmmm ok maybe im doing osmething wrong then cause its working on another stream, thx for checking
oh no im 47 over not 7 ugh, how are they doing it lol dang it
Alright, an issue just cropped up again that's started happening ever since I started using SE. When I switch to a new scene OBS will crash. I don't know if it makes a difference, but there are two SE overlays active in the scene I switch to. One of them is my main overlay which is active at all times, and the other is a contest overlay that is shutdown when not visible.
OBS 20.1.0 (mac) log file uploaded at 2018-02-02, 18:15:59
The crash happened at line 187
Do you have OBS websocket plugin installed? @thorn crystal
Because I know there was a recent issue with crashes when that plugin was installed
Not that I know of. How would I go about checking?
Under tools in OBS
If you're getting crashes when you switch your scene collection on OBS Studio v21 and you use Palakis's obs-websocket plugin, please be sure to update to the latest version, which fixes this issue: https://t.co/t8Ihi31fV8
I'll take a look at the crash log but I might have to refer you to OBS on this
yeah, I see no websocket plugin
hmm so the crash didn't occur right after changing scene collections?
it was changing scenes within one collection?
That's not a crash log, it's seems to be a normal log.
Exactly. I go to change a scene and OBS just goes down. It's happened a few times mid stream.
Where can I find the crash log?
AFAIK they are generated and can be uploaded only at the time of a crash
maybe they're stored in the folder with other logs
For Windows, they save the crash logs at "%appdata%\roaming\obs-studio\crashes".
@thorn crystal go to help > log files > show log files
from there go up in the finder window and see if you see a crash folder
There's no crash folder. Its just a bunch of logs.
:/
There is a plugin here called OBS-browser. Is that different from the OBS websocket plugin you mentioned before?
yes
OK. I figured but just wanted to make sure.
I think its best to check with OBS on this one. Head over to discord.gg/obsproject and post your log files and what's going on. They should be able to help out
OK. Thanks!
Hey, is it possible to transfer an alert box with all the variations and stuff to another overlay?
@weary mist
yeah, for sure
click on the alert box, then in the layers tab, there is a button that will let you duplicate, and let you select which overlay you want it copied to
it doesn't show which overlay to copy to, but i clicked the duplicate thing
oh wait maybe not, one sec
ty

Sorry folks
hey folks quick question: my animated alert gifs dont loop anymore... they only play once and then freeze. is there a way i can make the gifs loop again?
@weary mist I duplicated it, i went back to my other overlay, so now how do I get it?
can anyone help?
what file type is it @thorn quest ?
when you duplicate it to another overlay it should show up there
@dense jackal where should it show up?
it's been a week, hosts don't work. Not only the alert but it doesn't even shows on the dashboard on Stream elements
@lament blade Top left hand corner of the overlay you duplicate it to ๐
whgen you duplicate you will choose an overlay and it will show up on the overlay you chose
that button is bottom left in overlay editor
Do you have the activity feed open somewhere during streams?
@outer ravine do you have ground control?
Thank you
@lament blade No problem 

it all worked fine till a week ago, know i tell my friend to host me for testing and it works, but when someone "bigger" hosts me SE doen't notice, its not the alert tho
Hey, does anyone know why I am getting an echo on my alerts now for no reason when I test them?
Make sure to :ballot_box_with_check: โShutdown source when not visibleโ for all browser sources (all OBS scenes). If using studio mode, uncheck โSwap Preview/Output scenes After Transitioning.โ Also keep in mind that sound can play from any overlay loaded in the browser (editor or launched). https://i.imgur.com/FegZJQS.png https://i.imgur.com/yY0wcFl.png
@elfin frigate because you have obs open
hmmm it don't that yesterday with OBS open
didn't*
I also did what you said @clever mango still getting the echo ๐ญ
@clever mango no i'm not ahah
do you have the overlay launched somewhere in a browser..?
I pressed refresh on the properties. Thank you! โค
https://streamelements.com/groundcontrol gotchu @outer ravine
every single alert work ahahah it's seem it doesn't even acknowledge the host but only from some channeld
Ground Control isn't necessary but it is one of the three options for host alerts. One of the three (SE site dashboard, site activity feed, or ground control app) must be open when the host occurs. This is why I recommend ground control because it runs and can't be closed accidentally like a browser tab
Hosts are different from every other event
We use those three outlets to listen for host alerts using the streamer's chat token
plus it can control your media share/ song requests and has darkmode, different fonts 
anyone have an idea why my gifs dont loop in my alerts? they stop after being shown once ๐ฆ
I asked earlier what type of file they were ๐
whoops sry... yeah either webm or gif
no prob
Webm video doesn't loop but GIF should
my webm's looped before too ๐ฆ
I'll look into this. I just need to know which overlay you're working on in your manager
you mean the name of my overlay? ๐ sry im confused
ok i'll download it but it doesn't answer my question xD
The answer for 98% of cases where a host alert isn't received is that one of the three options wasn't open at the time of the host
the thing is it worked fine for three months lol
oh wait the gifs DO loop... >.< alright so I guess i'll just have to convert my webms into gifs
I promise nothing has changed since October
and it works when host my self with another account or my friends host me
If you have Ground Control open during your streams going forward and a host doesn't appear in the feed let us know ASAP after it happens and we'll be happy to look into it. It's just not something we can troubleshoot after a stream has ended.
But the code is written in the ground control program to receive hosts as long as it is running when they happen ๐
So i'm still trying to figure out the delay in my widgets when transferring scense. All I have in this particular scene is an alert box and a border for my cam and the border loads in pretty slowly. Any quick tips or troubleshooting i can try??
!load
Loading time for overlays will vary based on your internet speed, ping to servers, and the amount of data to load in the overlay. Using studio mode, you can preload your next scene before transitioning so that no loading appears on stream. You can also use a longer transition time. https://youtu.be/W8iWsD2Lq3U?list=PL_9rga23xIlJDyaOnO2avbss-PHm28oNs
I recommend studio mode as loading times will vary
and you can switch as soon as it loads
Well whats weird is it's crazy inconsistent. Like i said there are simply two widgets in this particular scene. I'm using one of those fancy animated scenes for Heroes of the storm with all kinds of crap and that has no delay at ALL
Can you think of why that might be?
The same can be said for any webpage on the internet
IS there a way to select all?
They don't all load in exactly the same time each time
There are a number of factors in play
is there a way that i can like move it all up?
Ok
select one and hold shift while pressing an arrow key a set amount of times. Then I repeat this with the others so that I keep the positioning after all have moved
holding shift while using arrow keys will move 10px at a time
as opposed to 1
It's not great but that's the best solution right now
so i'm obliged to download something extra? i don't understand why it worked fine 3 days ago and now it doesn't xD
you're not obligated to
There are two other options
But IMO ground control is the best of the three
@clever mango well every antivirus i have is deleting it so what are the other 2 options?
It's just a false positive because it's Microsoft hasn't looked it over yet. It's open source and safe. I can walk you through to how whitelist it as many do.
we just tryed tho hosts from two accounts one worked and one not ahah
The other two options are these pages... https://streamelements.com/dashboard https://streamelements.com/dashboard/activity
May I know your twitch account so I can take a look?
misspizza
Thanks just a moment
yep but i'm offline
we just tryed hosting with two account, in my dashboard i only have one of them.
Well, it's hard to test reliably when you're offline. Can we test while online?
ok
Ok, please open this page and keep it open during testing https://streamelements.com/dashboard/activity
BUT the thing is that it may work, when you test it ahahahah. The problem is that it takes only some of the host. Today I've had like 5 host and it worked 2 times
I will try to host also
I'll host you from multiple accounts ๐
so we can check
ok i'll go online know
thanks Kiwa
or that 
please do as well
same
๐
Works ๐
seems good
idk
i know that you can see any other host on my dashboard even tho today i received two of them
xD
o.o
and you can see from my dashboard that they dont show
nope
they were our tests with my friend
i had 2 with 5 viewer
julezen for sure and the other i dont remember the name
it's like it started showing only the 0 viewer host
I'm confused on what the problem is
is possible?
No ๐ฆ
They are all received the same if the right page is open
Alerts may not go off for some based on filters but they will all be received
@lament blade some host works and some don't, if they don't it's not the allert, they don't even show on my dashboard
i see them because twitch as a default messege for hosts
I was on your stream when terra hosted, and i saw the host going through and it also was on the activity feed
Maybe you didn't have activity feed/ground control open before
That would explain why it didn't work before
@lament blade i swear to god today i receive two 4 host. Rikicost and Jannachan (that are tests i made) both shows on my dashboard/activity
julezen and another (both +5 viewers) don't appear on my dashboard/activity
Those are our fixes for now, I'm not sure what changed for you but we will investigate. It doesn't seem that others have this issue consistantly, and what we suggested has worked in the past.
@dense jackal ok, thanks. I'll tell you if tomorrow i have the same issues or not ๐
We will check around more and see if we can find others with this issue to more accurately pinpoint the issue
Awesome ๐
Sorry to hear that ๐ฆ but if you keep ground control or activity open, you shouldn't come across any future issues
Let us know how it goes next stream c:
@clever mango tomorrow 22 CET i'll be on for sure
I will be there
i'm just worried they only works with 0 viewers ๐ฆ so all the tests work ahahah
'
It's fine ๐ we all get missunderstandings
i hopes tomorrow they work
Yep, Take my energy (๏พโใฎโ)๏พ*:๏ฝฅ๏พโง
but i swear they weren't ahaahha my viewers can testify ahahahah
thank u all โค sorry for the trouble xD
we belive you
:3 have a nice day
it's ok
we are just doing our best to help

but next time just try to come in imidiantly
i think most of the people can help that way more easy ๐
I'll still be there tomorrow @outer ravine
thank u all ๐
Np 
not sure if this is where this goes, but how would I add a on screen notification of who folowed, instead of only the bot saying someone followed?
you can make a Overlay in the StreamElements Overlay Editor
from there you can make an AlertBox and also display TopTipper, Last Follower ETC.
ahhh cool, seems simple enough, just wasnt sure where to look
thanks for the response ๐
Also, if you want cool Designs without putting much effort into you can check out the "Super Themes"
Super themes are op ๐ฎ
they are preset Overlays StreamElements lets you use for free
and there are many diffrent ones to choose from
i only really want the f ollow noti, not a overlay per say
worth a look, especially bc you can modify them to your desire
No problem ๐
Move boxes and disable stuff you dont want/need
ok
No problem ๐
just wanted to let you know that there is a option like that available 
sweet ๐
my virus scanner also is giving me probs with ground control, says its a virus, but its most likely false positive, but i tried loading up ground control with pubg, and pubg wont run with ground control open, is my software compromised? I downloaded from main website of streamelements
It's a false positive
Is it blocking the download entirely?
i disabled it for a bit to install it, cuz i figured it was false positive, and installed
and added it to exclusion virus list
you maybe need to whitelist it
but it is no virus I can garentee you that 
same issue
Since microsoft hasn't reviewed it and certified it antiviruses and battleye see it as unknown and panic
but it's completely open source on github and safe
Try setting the program to always run as administrator
ok
does anyone know of a way to pull in world of tanks player stats using stream elements? we use another bot for it at the moment but its uptime is bad
@astral epoch do you know what this other bot does to get the stats?
Does someone knows if i can stream using the GeForce Experience , with the help of SE as well ?
Apreciate
@clever mango not off hand, checking to see if they show how on the wotlabs site, which is were the current bot gets its stats
@clever mango How would SE help me ? meaning that I can directly live with GFE
@hardy garden Sorry for the image but I think this explains it well
Ok
It does
Sorry if I am silly atm, I am tired....haven't sleep all day....5:34 AM here
ouch
Well SE has a lot to offer you even though you can't use overlays on the stream. Explore the site (aside from the Themes Gallery and My Overlays sections for now) and ask questions here anytime 
Thank you

hey um i dont know if this is common or not but every time i get a donation it always goes to pending, is there a setting to take that off or is that an always thing?
https://streamelements.com/dashboard/tipping/moderation You may have tip moderation turned on o:
Or is it pending on paypal?
i turned off the moderation, or is the problem that i have to restart stream
So it was on before? o:
yes and i have it off now but still happening
You have to click save on the bottom
iv done that as well
When did you disable moderation?
like 30 mins ago
and then received a tip after that?
ya
one sec
It should take effect immediately and I see you've disabled it. If the next tip requires approval I'll poke the devs about it in the morning.
alright thank you very much for your time ๐
Have a nice day 
you to ๐

Hello, may I have some help with Timers?
Of course! ๐
So I have a timer set up, It's enabled. Yet it never happens in my stream?
That might be because of the "chat lines" option, maybe you set it too high, what happens is, it will wait for you get that amount of lines before posting
yeah
it is set to 0
5 minutes 120 minutes 0 lines
online
offline then chat lines
ahh wait.... ๐ญ
So online interval is also ticked?
sorry about that..
Don't be sorry 
We are here to help, if you have any other questions feel free to ask anytime
okay.. Thank you guys! Love the platform!
Our if you have any good memes ๐




Thanks guys! Have a great day!
you too 

officialy I find SE helpfull and extremly good

1 questiom, for the Tip memo i have to write the {user} variable ?
Thank's
No problem 
And about the placeholder, what it deos ?
Hey guys for top donator widget, what kind of text do i need to input for like name + total amount of donations they've made?
That is the suggested amount someone sees when they open your page @hardy garden
{name} {currency}{amount} @lusty laurel
It's default on the top tipper widget ๐
@lament blade thx
@stuck hamlet its currently like that, cause the same person donated a couple times for me, it only shows the top donation made by that person, is there anyway to make it so if for example they donated like 3 + 5 +7, it would show top donator: 15?
are you using top tip, or top tipper?
Yep, top tipper widget ๐

hey i know this isnt about streamelement but obs chat isnt responding if u can please teach me how to fix https://gist.github.com/20f1438c2f592a7a489001a43b8ce337
OBS 21.0.1 (64bit, windows) log file uploaded at 2018-02-03, 13:10:09
cuz my screen cant be recorded starting the output failed please check the log for detail notet:if u are using the NVENC or amd encoders please make sure your video drivers are up to date
Sorry i don't understand that much about it, maybe tomato will help @dense jackal 
what are you using to encode? x264 or NVENC?
nvenc
are you sure your drivers are up to date?
how to check
What is your gpu?
sry im noob
I'm finding a way ot figure out your pc's gpu
um i found it
wait
My gpu in that case would be the NVIDIA GTX 1070
I DONT UNDERSTAND THESE LANGuages
WTF
ITS IN CHINESE WTF
please take a picture and send it D:
I don't know how to help there
i mean like u take screenshot of where to press
yes nvidia gforce gtx 1050
how do i check
download this https://www.geforce.com/geforce-experience/download
it will auto detect your driver and navigate the program
to update it
now install
it has shadowplay
click drivers
and then download the drivers you need
mine are up to date
so there isnt any download button
should be for you
but uh theres a download button
ok i pressed the download button alrdy
ok it downloaded and it have showned express installation/custom installation
express
ok downloading
your screens will flutter black for a sec, it's just installing don't worry
Ok
In the Ground Control app which token do I put in where the custom bot name is?
If that makes sense. xD
the token for when you are signed into the bot account
you have to sign into your bot account
then generate token in ground control
twitch*
its installing now ๐
@lament blade after updating if you continue to have problems checkout discord.gg/obsproject we like to stay more SE focused here if we can ๐
your gpu most likely runs a lot of ur system so its guna reset everything for a short moment
@dense jackal i did ask the cominuity but no one reply
Then ask in #welcome , Support is more for SE questions ๐ฆ
Installation Complete
sry whats SE lol
Stream elements?
yes
ok tomathin installation complete
if you continue to have problems checkout discord.gg/obsproject we like to stay more SE focused here if we can ๐
After I generate, what do I do next?
Try testing it now
ok
You logged in your bot's account and got the token on Ground control? @crimson yew
Yeah, and I tested it. Now the bots name is different
It's on the name you wanted it to be?
Yup! ๐

Generate your 0Auth token in ground control
I must say, StreamElements is pretty bad ass.
ok @dense jackal the only thing is uh the graphic is like 360p or something
I'm not sure I can be of much help from here on out I apologize @lament blade
glad I could help
@dense jackal Thanks! I am willing to spent this day to find how to chnage it to 1080p if i have problem i try to msg u again thanks
Please direct StreamElements based problems here only โค

I can help some but the obs devs and helpers are more helpful with their stuff ๐
Is there a way to setup an image to pop up on screen in timed intervals?
Yes! the image rotator widget ๐
Quick question, hopefully I'm not bothering anyone. It's about the overlay. I'm using it at the moment but all it picks up is black. Is there something miniscule I'm skipping?
The overlay is perfectly fine but it doesnt show anything else but the beauitful overlay.
it shows up correctly on SE but not obs?
Thanks @dense jackal

After I finished using the overlay editor, I popped it onto OBS and everything looks fine but everywhere else that should be the screen is black.
Hopefully that makes sense.
!multi
Make sure to :ballot_box_with_check: โShutdown source when not visibleโ for all browser sources (all OBS scenes). If using studio mode, uncheck โSwap Preview/Output scenes After Transitioning.โ Also keep in mind that sound can play from any overlay loaded in the browser (editor or launched). https://i.imgur.com/FegZJQS.png https://i.imgur.com/yY0wcFl.png
I checked over and over again. Shutdown is checked. Swap Preview is unchecked.
can you screenshot what you see in obs
oh silly! you need other sources ๐
like gameplay
or desktop capture


It works. Thank you so much for your time. Have a good night/morning. I really appreciate it.
Goodnight! Thanks for being nice 
no prob man come back anytime we are always open B)
my stream elements donations isnt working but follows was and so was sub
what is your twitch channel?
You need to change your tipping link
in your bio
to StreamElements and not Streamlabs
thank you

i forgot to do that when i switched my stuff over
all good ๐ happens sometimes ๐
is it possible to transfer points from an old twitch name to your new one ?
i think i only got half of that @dense jackal
all editable here https://streamelements.com/dashboard/leaderboard/current ๐
oh ok cool thank you
Hey so kinda mad, I got echoed alerts through obs and I had a huge host with no alerts. What is going on?

!host
Twitch doesn't have a "notification system" for hosts (unlike follows, subs, raids, etc.) so the only way for StreamElements to know that you are being hosted is to connect through you to twitch. This connection is made on:
- SE Dashboard page - https://streamelements.com/dashboard
- SE Activity Feed page - https://streamelements.com/dashboard/activity
- Ground Control desktop app - https://streamelements.com/groundcontrol
Please have one of these open during your stream in order to receive host event notifications.
Have you tried these @elfin frigate ?
Oh I have to have that open? That's good to know. Thanks. Do I tried the mutli options and still echoing through obs I did not have the overlay open
theres a built in !store command, not sure where to find it? (so ic an change it)
it was an alias of items, nvm
Was just about to link haha
:p
check ur layers for multiple alert boxes @elfin frigate
I only have one ๐ฆ
long long time user of obs and streamlabs, but switched to stream element today thanks to tomathin. Only thing is, I'm getting hella hella bad lag that I've never seen before. My pc has great specs, and this only happened after using one of the super themes or w/e they're called.
Only thing I can think of is that it's the theme slowing my pc down for some reason, but why would that happen, and how could I fix it?
Animated superthemes can be more intensive can you send me your obs specs?
what specifically do you need?
hi! my total sub button is not updating, is there a way i can refresh the widget?
https://streamelements.com/dashboard/session you can refresh the totals
it still shows as 0 when I have 3, does it normally take a while to update? ><
that would do it, twitch api will be flaky at first for us ๐
ok sooo it worked, thank you! but i mucked up and accidentally reset my labels, is there a way to get them back?
have to add them manually or wait for more ๐ฆ
ok no prob, thank you so much!
can we make it so when a sub is gifted, the GIFTER gets the points, and not the receiver?
not atm but that's a good idea!
its a good incentive for others to gift subs ๐
i also discovered something which im pretty sure is a bug: i had an item in the store that costed 100 points, a few people purchased it, and at some point I made the price 10,000, and refunded the people who bought it at 100 pts, and they got refunded 10,000
The refund just gives them however much the item costs
so if you change the price then refund it will refund 10k
Just incase Im missing something, are we able to copy and paste widgets from one overlay to another?
Yes bottom left icon that looks like two pages and a red star
Hey, how do i turn off the Stream Report Email?
There's an unsubscribe button at the bottom of the email ๐
Huge streamers and youtubers community....love it
damn im blind, thanks @dense jackal ๐
hey everyone i wanted to irl stream an event im attending and participating in tomorrow but im not sure on even how to irl stream i went to the streamelements irl guide all you need to know but it didnt have what i needed..
yes i know that but im wanted to use my go pro and its a car race event .
haha yeah iv been digging on google but not alot about it and so far only parascope ooffers to connect to the go pro then go live but i cant use it for twitch.
damn i wish i knew to help you man
all good parascope leads to facebook or twitter ... hmm maybe somthing for the twtich devs to get on haha
what about overlays and such for irl streams?
We do overlays for IRL streamers but the whole using a go pro is a bit out of my depth
why is there a help button on my overlay now o_0?
its gone now, but in case it happens in the future what was that?
okay it was weird when i changed scenes it apepared
hey i have a problerm with the widget tips top donator and recent donator
the last donator did the donation with anonimus because he put his name in the description so he asked me to stwitch his name. and i had to tipe it manualy.
now i want it to go back to automatic tell me who is the top donator and the last donation
no it said anonymus
Email, not name
okay i think i fixed it

@dense jackal yes, im aware of that...(you just restated what I said), which is why im saying its a bug
so is it possible to give a moderator permissions in stream elements? modding for a streamer and he isnt very productive on this stuff
@cloud niche There is a feature we call Dashboard access which the streamer can set up on this page: https://streamelements.com/dashboard/account/channels and it allows them to grant moderators of theirs access to their StreamElements account to help them set everything up
What does the loyalty points do?
Allows you to spend them on things like mini-games, the stream store, giveaways, contests, song requests, a bunch of things
Oh I See Thanks Dude!
No problem 
how do I enter the JTW key without typing the whole thing
i need help in voince support
just a question > do people who auto host still get currency for hosting??
Hey How Can I Set Video Hosting public so that everyone can host
@left meteor Copy it then paste it
Ctrl + C, Ctrl + V
@lament blade Yes
@lament blade Video hosting? ๐ค you mean Media Share?
how do i add a user name to a command, but make it clickable for their twitch profile
I don't believe you can ๐ค
Doubt it'll be clickable though
hmm anyway to do like a link but change the text ?
No
Yes
I want a command with !wins ( show's wins ) and one with !addwins x .. how do i make that with !add wins cuz i can't figure it out
so at !wins i use ${count <name>} ?
If you don't want to increase it use ${getcount <name>}
With name being the name of the command
i want to increase it manually
but i cannot use like !addwins 5 so it will add 5 ?
No
luckily you win game by game
๐
@pulsar gulch you're overcomplicating it my man
just edit a command
This might also be useful
These commands already exist in default commands
You don't need to make them manually
And you put <name> as the command name, which it isn't
That was just to demonstrate where you put the command name
hmm
Profile Page > Open My Profile > Change it over on the left
the first one works .. but the second one it's .. ehm still don't understand ๐ฆ
You don't put !addwins
Okay, so the idea is that it gives you a counter of how many times a command has been used
getcount shows you the number without adding 1
count adds 1 and shows you the number after adding 1
So say ${getcount example} would show you the command !example has been used once
If you do ${count example} it would add 1 and say used twice
so i should have !wins ${getcount wins} and !addwins ${count wins} ?
Sooo like this then
Yes
Thank you โค
No problem 
so when i use the !addwins he will display a message StreamElements : 1 and if i type again he will increase it
but can i stop it from getting the message " StreamElements : 1 " ?
I don't believe it's possible to change it. It's just showing how much the count is increased to
I see , it will look better with a message or something ? any tips ^^ ?
Make the response something like: Added a win, new total is: $(count wins)
how do i reset that count ?
np
Updated the number of points users get for follow/subbing but it hasn't updated it in stream yet, do I need to remove the leaderboard and reinstall it?
did you hit save, and it usually takes ~10minutes for it to start updating
I did, it's still sitting at the points I updatd to
It should automatically start doing the updated numbers. no need to remove anything
i wonder if parting and joining the bot would refresh it here 
i'm hosting someone else right now, I'll update the numbers again and see if it sticks tonight
When someone tries to request a song this message pops up! you must provide a valid youtube id or url and the setting for who can use it is set to everyone in the music request settings.
when i add a item to the store and i choose for stream perk it will shown up in the widget when i redeem that item but when i choose for code-list because i have multiple codes for that game the widget doesnt show an alert on stream is this a bug am i doing something wrong
@ionic summit make sure in your twitch settings that you allow links, otherwise that is what will be posted
@versed crane let me check in on that, I am not 100% sure
ok so when the first song is finished palying.. the queue just dissapears, and doesnt keep playing the rest. How do i fix that?
?
So you have a list full of requested songs, and when the first song is done, the queue clears up?
yes
and then when i restart the ground control, all of them are back but it only plays the first one again.. and then repeats that pattern
any fixes?
Sorry for the inconvenience, i'm checking right now if that has been reported before
think i saw a forum post about it
We don't have forums ๐ค
Hi! I'm having problems with my overlay chat
What kind of problems?
@ionic summit Could you tell me what songs were on the playlist?
@tight harness My text for twitch chat has a bit of transparency and its hard to read it
@tight harness I checked and it said my opacity 100%
If you go to text settings, you can select a solid color
Yeah, it'll be the text colour opposed to the opacity
Select a black color
move it around
I'll show you one sec
https://gyazo.com/91ad0838ba5d19f23aa5375bb99a2a4c See that the default has opacity to it
But if you move it around it doesn't
OR that ^
yeah but i didnt want the black box, i just wanted the transparent background
Then did you do what i said?
That should fix it
