Not really but @stuck hamlet is here to help 😃
Unfortunately he can't help me. But ok, i'll wait then. Don't want to bother you.
@worn cradle When you make a new custom command, there is a shoutout template there 😄
hey guys, does streamelements have a playlist function for the !sr feature? just wondering if i can store songs that are requested in a playlist and play from playlist when there are no songs currently being requested
uhhm thank you! so the answer to the original question is no?
did you put it on 1080p in SE and OBS scene
Make it 1080p on the properties and press CTRL F
@stable grotto You have to double click the source in OBS, then change the width to 1920, and height to 1080. Then click OK, then hit CTRL+F
awesome it works thx guys
with streamelements if you add quotes isthere a way to see a list off it?
Unfortunately no, our quotes system is very basic, but it is being worked on feel free to upvote it on our ideas board here https://streamelements.helprace.com/i242-quotes-tab-in-dashboard
can anyone help me fit my overlay to obs
To add your overlays to OBS, add a new browser source in your scene. Paste your overlay URL in the browser source properties, set the dimensions to 1920x1080 (unless you changed them on the website), and :ballot_box_with_check: “Shutdown source when not visible” https://youtu.be/KDvLynUqXI4
!res
The default resolution for StreamElements overlays (theme and custom) is 1920x1080. Please add them in OBS at their full resolution and use CTRL+F to fit to screen if necessary. You can then downscale your stream in OBS settings > Video if you'd like https://i.imgur.com/6bWXxjR.png
thank you
My current song overlay isn't showing the names of songs in the backup playlist.
how do u check bot logs to see why users are getting timed out or if the bot is getting whisper command to timme people out
and see who is doing that 😉
@autumn galleon That's normal for the time being
darn
@thick beacon If it's the SE bot timing people out then there's nothing something in the twitch chat to say that it was SE timing them out
@autumn galleon Check #welcome 😄
anyone know how (and if you even can) add custom rewards for the loyalty points in chat for viewers?
You mean like the Stream Store? 😄
well im new to the program so maybe thats something i overlooked, give me a few secs to check it out lol
No problem 
You're very welcome 
P.S. im not sure how you did it, but your Profile pic (sick ass dragon) is bada** lol
Thanks 
Yes dragons are cool
🔥
hey im back, i am unable to add a custom image to my custom reward, i upload the image and press on upload but nothing happens, i have been able to add a sound but cant do images
any and all help greatly appreciated
Hey guys, not really a streamelements question - but having trouble with frame drops in OBS. Been fine for months, but today I'm getting massive drops for no reason at about 70% dropped frames (settings are the same, called ISP and everything is fine there). Tried changing twitch servers and every single one drops frames. I streamed at 6k bit rate for months with no problem, but today it seems like it only works when I use lower than 2.5k. Weird since it's not my computer, it's not my settings, not my internet, and not twitch servers. Really stumped on what the problem is, did anyone else have a similar issue and know a fix?
sounds like something you might want to ask in the OBS discord OBS discord discord.gg/obsproject
will ask there also, thanks
how can i play a whole playlist though ground control??
how do i access my commands on stream elements?
thank you
how can i play a whole playlist though ground control??
@pearl wave @tight harness @turbid reef ????
thought it was them?!!
But you can place your youtube playlist into the song request settings page, then put your JWT token into ground control, and it will pull up the song playlist
They are staff. there is a Support heros role you can tag if you want help
Don't want to take time away from developement from the staff
sorry m8
Its good, Just want to get you pointed in the right direction. Tagging random people is not a good way to get answers. Did you get it working from what I said for the song request?
nope. if i put in the playing songlist it only paste in the first song, and if i put in the playlist link it does nothing
and you are putting the playlist link on this page? https://streamelements.com/dashboard/songrequest/settings
into backup list?
yes
arhhh. it works thnx alot m8
👍
does it play the requested songs when the whole playlist is done or???
It will play a requested song after the current song is finished
i just tryed to push next and it just playes the next in the playlist and not the one i have qued
so instead of hitting next, drag the bar that indicates where in the song ou are to about 1 second before it ends
then let the song end
and it will switch to the requested song
genius. cool. done for questions for today 😄
can someone tell me how the follower goal works? i want to set it to 50 followers bt it has 81 followers already registered any help?
https://streamelements.com/dashboard/session -> Goals tab, change the follower goal progress
thanks cuda ❤
sorry for being 
also is there a way to not put a date on certain goal? like follower goal?
yes
just drag up the black square in the bottom right to crop it off
thanks!
Hi Support for Streamelements, is there a trick to get the cam box on any overlay to size with an actual cam. I have a hdpro c920 set to 640x480 res on a 1920x1080 overlay panel and i can modify the width but not the height of the 16-9cam box.
Is there a way to add text background like the option in OBS? I can't find any option for it
You want to add text on the overlay? @lament blade On top of the overlay editor there is "insert text"
how do I share an overlay to a fellow streamer(edited version of the fortnite super theme)
I know how to add text, I just want to add a background to it that fits the text when its changed, like in OBS
This option
how do I share an overlay to a fellow streamer(edited version of the fortnite super theme)
if your friend goes on their account settings and generate a new invite link with editor powers, gives it to you, and then you can go to the "My Overlays" page, and click the the "duplicate overlay" button next to the relevant overlay and choose their channel on the popup. @steady quest
does anyone know discord setup like really good. adding bots and making things work with channels and such?
We don't have that option, but you can add text shadow, or insert a picture colored like that behind the text @lament blade
Is there a way to have a picture resize to the text in order to have the same effect?
how do you add music to an overlay? i want to add music to my "steam is about to start" overlay.
stream*
Play it locally on your pc @oak rover
oh
Adding it to the overlay is impractical, all you need to do is add it as a Media source in OBS or play it on your PC manually
i feel dumb lol
No need
It's alright 
How are the donators tracked? Just by the name they put?
The email
Ah okay
can you import a sound file command from ankhbot to stream elements?
Not sure what a sound file command is. You can create a sound effect store item and link it with a command, yes
so in ankhbot you can create a sound file .. add any sound to the command you want. can i import it from ankhbot to stream elements
not directly, but if you have the sound file, add it to your stream store as a sound effect, then you can create a command that links to that sound effect
ok perfect now i understand thank you
Is there any way to detect if some supermod has been changing loyalty points ?
We don't keep logs of that currently
It's been planned for a while but we haven't gotten around to it yet https://streamelements.helprace.com/i438-change-logs
ohh its at the backlog
can i use streamelements on youtube videos?
ofc @haughty carbon
thanks!
Question the Streamlabs Export to StreamElements isn't on FireFox is it?
Öhm can you remove the "mins" after ${user.time_online}, mins doesnt make sense in other languages if you remove it we can add a own
@potent mirage it's for chrome
So what kind of programs are out there to use fire giveaways?
@surreal estuary can I see your command you are using that in?
@exotic epoch What is a fire giveaway?
yes i'm using !zeit ${user} hat ganze ${user.time_online} zugesehen!
Response from Bot StreamElements: GNetworkEU hat ganze 20 mins zugesehen!
how do i get text to have an outline
do you mean on discord or on the SE overlay @twin urchin ?
in streamelements
@twin urchin so rn you can have a text shadow, but outline is something we want to do as we start to revamp our overlay manager/edit system https://streamelements.helprace.com/i437-additional-text-features-in-the-overlay-editor Feel free to go here and upvote bc that's something I would like too 😄
@dense jackal is there something i can do against the mins?
im getting an insane amount of CPU usage from OBS when ever i add in an overlay from stream elements
any help?
@slate valley how many have you added to OBS?
even with just 1
Hi I'm back. I got my overlays and alerts all sorted but now I'm having issues with the SE bot. It randomly types command names into chats and I don't know how to stop it. For example, people will be talking, and the bot will randomly say "!discord" or other commands.
the more i add i go to 12% then 30% and just keeps going up
@surreal estuary unfortunately not, it's how the commands works atm
@slate valley And what is in your overlay? Rendering/encoding moving images and text is not an easy task
@reef drift is there keywords on that command?
ive tried both a static overlay and an animated ones both just sky rocket my CPU usage and ive got a beast of a PC
It says the discord command by itself, but in other messages it says multiple commands in one message @dense jackal
Oh should it be set to "Reply" instead of "Say"?
🤔 that's really weird I haven't heard of something like this happening before, reply just @'s the user who used the command
I imported most of my commands from Moobot if that affects anything
This is exactly what's happening, except it also says discord on its own sometimes
@reef drift would you mind generating a link and sending me a manager link so I can take a look? https://streamelements.com/dashboard/account/channels
It might be a timer 🤔
^
@slate valley Static overlays (images and text) will use much less CPU. You're welcome to use your own graphics locally with alerts and widgets in the browser source to lower usage but then you lose the convenience of having everything stored in the cloud and accessible from everywhere
Bot Supervisor?
Anything should work, you can always revoke it right after 😄 @reef drift
Alright DMing it to you
thats not support thats saying use something else??
Is it possible to rename "redeem"?
You can rename the default commands, yes.
Have you taken steps to optimize your obs with yoursetup? Process priority high, 3-4k bitrate, nvidia enconding, 48 fps, etc @slate valley
Or you can add an alias to the redeem command @surreal estuary
thanks cuda i seek for that option
@surreal estuary you can also make custom commands like this
it would redeem an item named happy from my store
We offer all-in-one browser sources for convenience but we're a flexible system because nothing is a one-size fits all in the streaming world. No one is forced to use the pre-made themes because there's no way to guarantee that every PC will be able to stream with them. If you have a "beast" computer there should not be an issue streaming with a single browser source overlay. I'm using a 6700k and 1060 and 10-15% usage is expected when using overlays that include everything in one.
yes my obs uses like 3% cpu with any other overlay program and other stuff but as soon as i add a stream elements overlay it just uses mass CPU
The other things I have questions about are contests. Does it work so whoever bets on the wrong outcome loses their points, and the winners get their points back, plus what they bet? I tried a few contests during yesterday's stream but I don't think it paid anything out after I selected the winning outcome. This was just observation and checking points afterwards so I could just be mistaken but I want to be sure
That's not a equal comparison though
You can achieve 3% usage with StreamElements if you have an all-in-one browser source that only includes widgets like alertbox, event list, chat
@reef drift that is exactly how it works. All the points are taken when the bets are made. When the winner is chosen, the points are given back in a share based off what you bet
It's the static and animated graphics along with scrolling text in a browser source that increases usage
Awesome, was just worried I was robbing people haha. Thanks for the help!
scrolling text and a gif shouldnt make 20% cpu usage
obs
Is this while streaming?
no just idle
If you'll provide me with an OBS log file and your scene collection file I'll be happy to investigate if there is something that can be done to lower the usage
Help > Log Files > Upload current log file
OBS 21.0.1 (64bit, windows) log file uploaded at 2018-03-07, 11:48:14
Ok, your GPU is far stronger than CPU. I highly recommend using NVENC encoding (dedicated chip on the 1080ti) to reduce the amount of stress on the processor
i am
theres no way you're using 20% cpu with NVENC
welp i am
you'd have to have 20 scenes at least
i have 1 scene with just elements in it
i delete the elements and i use 1% cpu
dont know why
want a screen shot
The reason for the usage is because the browser source uses CPU rendering. What is your twitch username? I will take a look at your overlay
preditor83
The only thing I can gather from that log is that, You should disable Game DVR for windows 10 and that your downscale filter should be set to bilinear.
Everything else looks normal to me.
I sit at 4% cpu usage with our overlays so im not sure where the issue is
(with nvenc)
changed to bilinear no change
STATIC - STATIC FORCE FIELD IN GAME ?
yeah made that one after the animated version used to much CPU was testing if the static one would use less
Let me know if your usage drops dramatically in a few seconds
should be at least 5% lower
yeah 5%
Kappagen
whats that
It's in your overlay. It's the widget that makes emotes appear on screen
ah okay
It's set right now for full screen which means it is constantly scanning and rendering the full 1920x1080
I disabled it but you can use it at a smaller size as well and with less emotes to reduce the usage
hmm okay thanks ill check all my overlays for that now
I'm also seeing that every layer is doubled in this overlay
that's definitely going to increase usage. I'll remove the duplicates
im going to make a new overlay and start from scratch

👌
@dense jackal apparently my discord app auto corrected, it was just supposed to be for giveaways. I am trying to find some way to do a giveaway in my channel without having to do it old school write everyone’s names down and draw it out of a bucket or hat.
Right here you can setup giveaways @exotic epoch https://streamelements.com/dashboard/giveaways
you can even show them on your overlay if you add the giveaway widget to your overlay editor
Just checking to see if the !quote command and quote callback has been fixed? So far it only stored 2 quotes, SAYS it stored the rest, but won't recall anything beyond slot 1 & 2.
My chat LOVES to quote me and it's made us sad 😦
Hi @runic copper when adding a quote the bot will return with "added quote #0" each time but it does in fact add them in numerical order as you can see in this screenshot 
We have that on the bug fix list
I went ahead and removed #3 and #4 that I added so the next quote you add will be #3
@clever mango Thank you! Time to re-add all the ones that didn't save haha!
My final question is - is there a way to make the quote automatically add the date and game you were playing at the time? I've seen it in other chats, and it's so handy!
Hmm I don't believe so but I'll check. And If it's not already on the feature request list for the new quotes system I'll add it there as well
Thanks you legend!

Am i suppose to see the messages i have set for bot timers in my chat? or is it only for my viewers i feel like i should be able to see them & i can’t figure it out.
everyone in chat can see the messages when they are posted
So should i be able to see them as well?
If you are in chat, yes
for some reason they aren’t showing up.. i have them enabled and went thru the settings multiple times. any idea what i can do?
Take a screenshot of your timers page please and post here
Ok, here's the problem. Chat lines is the required number of unique messages that must be posted in chat within the last 5 minutes of the timer in order for the timed message to be posted.
So in the case of the follow timer, there must be 10 chat messages posted between minute 15 and 20 for the message to be posted at minute 20
while online*
if the requirement isn't met the timer starts over
your chat line requirements are most likely too high so the timed messages aren't being triggered
while I would have never figured that out, so as a beginner streamer i should set my chat lines to a smaller number? I do have a decent amount of people who chat but thats obviously too high
Yes, lower the line requirement to better match the activity in your chat
The chat line requirement is explained here when adding a new timer
In any event, now you know and can make some great timed messages that will be posted 😃
thank you a lot I appreciate the support 

Anyone have problems with hosts not popping up on stream alert while streaming?
Seems to work fine when I test it on the website, but have missed many hosts in the past few days
Make sure you have ground control, activity feed, or your dashboard open while you're streaming
otherwise you won't see hosts
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.
^
Oh you need the dashboard open? Didn't know! Thanks 😃
How do I edit the description of a default command? I do not want !followage to mention my channel in the description.
let me see if we can create a custom command to replace the default one
cause we cant edit the replies of the default ones
@strong widget What would you like the command response to be?
I just want to remove the @mention of me in the response for !followage
Would you like it to be possible for someone to do followage of UserA in UserB's channel or just followage of UserA in your channel?
Just UserA in my channel
Ok, just a sec
Alright, thank you c:
Response is: $(user) has been following BeasttrollMC for: $(customapi.https://decapi.me/twitch/followage/beasttrollmc/$(user)?precision=4)
so i create a custom command with that as the response?
Yep, and disable the default followage first
alright
Just made one quick edit to remove "BeasttrollMC" from the response as it still seems to highlight me in the chat. It is now working perfectly as I imagined it to be now. Thank you all very much for your time and your help c:
You're very welcome. We're always here if you have other questions 
hi! during my stream, my host notifications weren't going off, but when i checked to see if they were enabled in my alert settings, they were! i was wondering what I could do to fix that?
Will definitely stick around c:
Hi @lament blade hosts are a bit different than the other events
@lament blade
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:

Just one of the three needs to be open
ohhhh okay, thank you! <3

hey, is there a way to get a widget for sub points? not amount of subscribers, but sub points exactly?
It's something that we're looking to add. There are just so many planned projects and not enough developers or time to get them all done fast enough.
i see, thanks 😃 sub points widget or sub points goal widgets is very useful because of unlock of emoticons, so i look forward to it 😃
Definitely, we recognize the appeal of it to partnered streamers so we look forward to adding it as soon as possible
Another question, Id like to remove the channel mention from the !uptime default command, is there a way I can get a custom api url for that as well?
Sure
Current uptime: $(customapi.https://decapi.me/twitch/uptime/beasttrollmc/?precision=3)
Thank you!
It will include your name when offline but just the uptime when live
Perfect!
To rename the bot you must use our tipping page and make sure it is linked in your Twitch Panels, and use our overlays. The option will appear in your Groun Control (!gc). You must own the BotName you are trying to use, sign in to https://twitchapps.com/tmi/ with the account you'll be using, and generate your Oauth token. Make also sure to the name is ground control is the same as the bot account and that it is modded in your channel :)
hello how do i get the leaderboard in my panels?
@fast lark here - https://streamelements.com/dashboard/tipping/leaderboard
what do you mean?
paper_planes
Shadow is using his magik 😄
hands him magic powder bag
magic powder bag was added to @atomic hollow s inventory
Erm I'm having trouble.... It's not letting me upload any pictures. I drag and drop the picture I want, click upload. And nothing happens. Help?
can we export loyalty points?
really?
@azure crypt which browser are you using?
the gift sub is fixed?
YOUR A GOD
@atomic hollow I'm using chrome.
im not familiar with API's but is there something I can read that will show me what to do to export?
I tried it with JPEG and then PNG.
looking
perhaps u are clicking the wrong upload button, sometimes u need to scroll down to see it
yeah works for me
I'm clicking the one next to the cancel button.
works for me too, try logging out and test again
I have. I think it's my laptop. Just tried again now it's "not responding". Sorry to have wasted your time.
ahh, no problem
Is there a reason the $100 default tip icon for the hype cup didnt splash away all of the 100 bit (purple icons)?
it literally just quietly laid down on top of them haha
tried changing weight of the $100 but did nothing
you also need to have a box for it with more height so the item as room to drop
Does StremElements have a points system for bits?
I see it for Tips and Followers and watch time. But not for Bits.
I think its on the Idea board let me look!
what do you mean?
You know under "Loyalty Settings" that you can set a "point" amount for Following and give "point" for tipping.
oh its allready there ⤴
Ohhh

So, I just have to be affiliated first huh?
yeah 😃
Ah, okay. Thanks.
sure

Heya - On some people's streams, they have vids set up so when a certain command is typed in chat, the video plays on the overlay. Is it possible with Streamelements ?
No. That's called Boom.
A different bot ?
Had a quick look but don't think that's what I mean
is it a replay of what just happened?
No. It's when for instance you ban someone then type a keyword in chat, a small vid/gif plays in the middle of the screen - a bit like an alert
I could prob find one
Sounds like a store redemption
is the streamer in question using StreamElements?
And is the command something like !redeem XYZ
@winter zenith I don't think so. I have seen streams where they have a number of different commands that play different mp3s/vids using "!" commands e.g. !boo, !yay, !dead, !yolo
With an example, it would be much easier to understand what you're looking for i think
Typing a command shows a video on screen @stuck hamlet. Or a sound effect. If webm works with redemption we can probably do it
Think so too
If that's what they mean, then sure.
I'll find an example and come back later 😃
You could just write one out too, that works 
Is it possible to copy my Twitch Settings of Stream Elements to my Youtube profile?
@stark furnace is this what you mean? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B8Zlwfw0CCo
NOTE: 1. If nothing shows in OBS after you followed the tutorial, create a new blank.gif transparent image with 800x500 pixel size and use it to replace the ...
Well - Let's say a streamer dies in game from doing something very silly, one of the viewers could type in "!fail" which would trigger a short vid to play in the middle of the screen of someone banging his head on the table and play the "Wah Wah Wahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh" noise at the same time.
Okay, yea. Like Cuda said, you could do that with the store. 😃
Much easier.
no programming and stuff needed just go to you SE Dashboard and add Store Redemptions
You can choose to make the Store Items coast loayalty points so only trusted viewer can trigger it
or set a global cooldown so you dont get spamed
when you prepear a Store Item you can upload a WEBM or Gif aswell as a soundeffect
make sure to add the "Store Redemption" widget into your desired Overlay
Ok I think I get it. I'll have a look at that vid and try out redemptions too. Think I like the redemptions thing as it might stop trolls spamming them
definatly 😃
And believe me I get a LOT of trolls :/
also will be much easier bc you dont have to install 3 things and programm your variables
The video has a lot of installing software and editing stuff. Could be complex, it's also non-StreamElements related. If you use our store tho, we will help you through everything 😉
⤴ he is 101% right 
😃 Ok I'll pop back later when I have time to try it 😃
we will be here 
tyty 😃
Yeah i found the button
Overlays : Yes
Bot: No
Wanted to do Overlays
Nice 
I have question I want to make a command that will show a person that you are hugging and who they were hugged by
okay 😃
also how do you make a shoutout with a link to the person stream that you shoutout
You need a custom command in your case that would be:
there is a template for both
${sender} hugged ${1} ❤
when you create a custom commmand
thank you so much! Is there away to add a link when I give a shoutout?
its automaticly
so if you create the command from the template "Shoutout"
it says:
^^
thank you guys so much for the help
no problem 
Hey everyone. Quick question. I don't have a computer to run my stream through. What products of yours can I use without that?
Thank you. I will work on setting those up today. Just getting started with streaming so it will be nice to have these setup for when/if I get to the point they are needed instead of playing catchup
Regarding Song Request. I have everything set up and I have a backup playlist set in case there are no songs playing, however, the playlist is a 3 hour dubstep mix. I was thinking once someone requested a song, the backup playlist would stop, and that song would start playing in it's place. Does the currently backup playlist have to finish it's entire duration before the song request goes to the top of the queue?
yes, but we're going to add an option to do what you need to the settings.
That's awesome. Thank you
I'm back !

Had a look at the stream shop vid. Still not too sure how to try doing this. I have a gif and an mp3 to use to test it with
nice!
You can redeem the item yourself to test it once it's set up
^
just click on Stream Store on the left while on the Dashboard
Click "Create a New item"
Yup I'm on the create new item page
leave it as a "Stream Perk" Name the Item maybe put in a Description?
then you can set a Global cooldown and or set up how many Loyalty Points it will cost
then you can press next. Here you upload the GIF and the Soundeffect and select them
Ok doing that now
after that you can set up an Item command
then you can press on next and be done for.
Ok it says image contains errors - Can it not accept a gif ?
and I think @stuck hamlet said there is a variable so you dont have to type !Redeem XYZ but just type !XYZ
But I sadly dont know how that works 😦
Image contains errors? 
@stark furnace is your gif too big or maybe broken?
I'm having this strange problem guys. I triple checked if I had the alert box repeated in overlays. And in OBS I made sure to turn everything off when not visible. All of my alerts, their sounds and videos get repeated twice with a delay and it just ruins the alerts all together (also, I enabled TTS and then tried to disable it and It seems impossible. )
Hmmm - Gif seems to be corrupt - I'll be back in a min !
@cerulean jacinth 🤔 doese it happen in the Browser source ?
so not in OBS but test it in your browser
In browser it doesn't happen. Everything is fine. Except for the TTS which doesn't want to go away
But when I have both OBS and browser OR just OBS and ground control app they go crazy
restarted OBS too I guesse ?
Yes
I've been trying different days, different options and even deleting the alerts and starting over
at first I thought it was because I hadn't disabled the overlays on the other scenes in OBS but I made sure I did
that really sounds like something is wrong with your OBS 🤔
Would you be open to a quick teamviewer session? 
Sure
Sweet. Just send me your info through DMs, and im in voice chat if you'd like.
Hello guys, how to test ace live streaming custom notifications?
yes
in your Overlay editor you can trigger Alerts 😃
the blue bell Icon on the bottom left
yes 😃
but I didin't copy url link from SE I create alert in ALS
what is ALS? 
Ace Live Streaming
fuuuu....
Maybe Ace Live Streaming has there own discord where you can ask 
We own Ace Live Streaming and we give support for it here 
yeah I am stupid...
hello, can i have some help please ?
sorry @nova copper I am an idiot
What do you need help with? @quiet goblet 😄
@lament blade hey 😃 , so im trying to set up overlay for my stream on OBS and im having hard time doing that ! i tried to make my own overlay and i ended up failing hard,so i choose one that is already made but now im having a problem setting the width and height for it on my OBS
PS: my english is not that great 😃 sorry
@nova copper What @winter zenith was saying is that if you use an overlay from StreamElements then there is an event emulator in the bottom left of the overlay manager there, but I don't believe in the current mobile app itself there is any such tool. We are however remaking the app so that would make quite a nice suggestion on our ideas board: https://strms.net/ideas
Make sure to :ballot_box_with_check: “Shutdown source when not visible” for all browser sources (all OBS scenes). If using studio mode, uncheck “Swap Preview/Output scenes After Transitioning.” 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
That is how you can set up your overlay on obs 
it doesnt matter what i have on my setting ?
Which settings?
no, not really, if your screen resolution is bigger or smaller, you can still make it 1080p and then press Ctrl + F ... to fit it perfectly to your screen
can anyone help me with my stream store page...siht happend again
got ya :), ill try and will let u know what happen 😃 tyvm ❤
@winter zenith Oh Image is uploaded - mp3 is uploaded - When I type !redeem banhammer it says "@stark furnace you successfully redeemed Ban Hammer Warning for 0 points. elements" but nothing appears on OBS
hm... 
Have the same issue
Yea :3
@lament blade ty 😃 it worked
ummm wait lemme try tnx
So maybe try that @final swan
Glad to hear @quiet goblet
Are you still here @winter zenith
I tried changing the picture to something I already uploaded before
that one is working fine
both have same pixels?
@stark furnace I am always here 
@tight harness so you saying don't use mobile alerts, just use SE alerts? becaus SE alerts are not scaled and glitching, plus they are off screen
Then it sounds like you've not set the resolution correctly
Ok @winter zenith I think I found the problem I had - Needed redeem alert on the overlay !!
how to set resolution then?
@nova copper How to set resolution? What did you set it to if you don't know how to set it? 🤔
@stark furnace yes I think I said you need to add the Store Redemption Widget in your Overlay 😃
but you couldn't upload your Gif
well i just paste gif link to alert and that's it, but main point that alert are gliching like flickering
and it doesn't ace stream labs or stream elements
it's still gliched
Scroll back - I think you missed the message I sent you !! and I missed where you said that !! 😃
@nova copper I'm not sure what you mean by "it doesn't ace stream labs or stream elements"
it doesn't care or stream labs or stream elements, both alerts glitched for ALS
sorry for my shitty english 😄
Well, we're remaking the app, so I believe the current version is unlikely to get patched when the new version will replace the old one shortly
shortly, like 2-3month?
Less than that 😄
Ok - !redeem banhammer now works. How I can give it an alias !banhammer ?
stay around here, we'll add you to the beta
....why would you ever set a bee on fire, @nova copper
lmao

@stark furnace you need to type a variable into the Chat to make a "Command" for that
@tight harness after updet will it be possible to buy full verson?
The full version will be free in the new app
Can I not do it on chat commands page ? @winter zenith

command would be !redeem banhammer
the variable would be ${redeem banhammer}
so !command add !banhammer ${redeem banhammer}


@stark furnace you could do it in the costum command´s also
its just easier typing it into chat: !command add !banhammer ${redeem banhammer}
StreamLabs have very nice app with working alerts, but it's suuuuuper laggy, atleast for me with 5Mbps upload
SL

@latent mural what? 
Ok @winter zenith 😃 It works - YAYYYYY !!!! Thanks for your help 😃
Very glad to hear it @stark furnace 
Hello there.. I want to add the emotes explosion but it doesn’t show up when emulate an event..
How do I allow bits?
you need to be affiliate for bits
@lament blade Have you added KappaGen to your overlay yet?
Yes @tight harness
And you ticked the option for it to trigger from the event you're emulating?
Greetings is it possible to translate the command givepoints?
All the events are ticked
Lu3_
Localisation is alright on the list, don't worry 😃
@lament blade I'm seeing that the bot is not in your channel currently
But shouldn’t it appear in the editor?
I can’t see it ?! I’m confused
Try refreshing the page
Now!!! Thank you 😊 but it didn’t save the emotes I picked...
On your screenshot are the ones I picked...
Weird.. now it works lol
yo dawgs, where does one edit the chat response for store redemptions and such
Thank you so much @tight harness - but.... I have one more question 😬
I'm listening @lament blade
since i used the custom bot, some weird text has shown up at the end
let me find it 5 u
@hearty peak You're referring to the sub emote from the StreamElements channel which it could use but your custom bot can't, we're aware 😄


u can log into that account and sub to SE or use !pepes to get rid of it @hearty peak

what channel do i use that command in?
I can’t scale the hype cut down how I want to @tight harness
the one you broadcast with @hearty peak
also make sure it’s enabled on your command list
it’s under defaults
@lament blade If you're trying to make the cup smaller there's a Cup Scale option in the settings for the cup I believe
i dont see it under chat commands
It is but when I make it as small as I want it it cuts off the cup
f3 and type pepe and nothing? @hearty peak on default commands? it’s in mine 
@lament blade How small are you trying to make it? 
Maybe half the size that it’s now?
It's currently 100%, you can make it 50% without it cutting off because I just did it 😄
Even at 20% it's not cutting off
But how?
Use the Cup Scale option in the settings when you click on the gear/cog by change cup
i am a dum @dense jackal sorry dadE

I can only find position in there 🙈
Scroll down
I can’t
So, Twitch emotes do not show up in my chat overlay on screen. Is this a bug or is this intended behavior?
What browser are you using? Because I saw it on your account too
@lament blade
Win 10
That's your operating system
Oh chrome 😂
No known issues with Chrome
I made my window size smaller to 70% and now it’s there.....
Interesting
Thank you again!!!! Perfect support here 💛

Last question... for today
🤣
Does streamelements have to be open in the browser while streaming?
You said that last time
for host alerts you need the activity feed open but it doesn't have to be via the website, you can have our desktop app Ground Control open instead
!gc
Our Desktop App Ground Control: https://streamelements.com/groundcontrol
Is it possible to redeem videos directly froum the loyality shop?
@lament blade Change the variations in Variation Settings too
like a mediashare @surreal estuary ? no but you can make song request cost loyalty points

@lament blade No problem 😃
@tight harness i tried that but it still wont stick
Nvm i got it it was me making a stupid mistake 😛 Thanks
What was it?
had to change the sound inside the variation not just the main settings lol i misunderstood what you were saying 😛
other than that love streamelements
So, Twitch emotes do not show up in my chat overlay on screen. Is this a bug or is this intended behavior?
Thanks Tomathin
Not kappagen, just the normal chat widget
🤔 should show them. i’m on phone, seeing if other support members can help you out bette here
@woven trellis
wait have you done ‘!emotes update’ in your chat? @woven trellis
I didn't realize that !emotes was a thing
Well, now I feel like an asshole, RTFM, right!?
All good now? 
Looks like it, I'll continue to test it when I'm not remoting into my desktop
Alright, I was looking into your account and it seemed to be working in the overlay manager, so i'm confident it's all good now
RTFM? and im the idiot who forgot about it @tight harness had to remind me 

Sorry again for asking but what did i wrong if someone buys a item and the message will not appear in the overlay only the sound?
make sure you have store redemption widget in your overlay 😄
@dense jackal RTFM=Read the F-ing Manual
for stream store sound effects it just does a sound it must be a ‘stream perk’ to show the pic/gif
@woven trellis 
awesome 
I seem to be having fps drops when elements is being used for some reason. Even with donation/cheers it does lag a little. The cup also freezes and it empties when i refresh to fix it sadly. Any ideas? I would pin it to beta but any suggestions would be great 😃
Would be interesting to see if you duplicate the overlay, remove the cup from it and then try with the overlay without the cup whether you still get the lag
i'll test it when i can for sure
Awesome 😃
Is WebM or MP4 Supportet as preview image.. that would be cool because gifs are so ugly
@surreal estuary Webm files are okay 
hi all, can someone tell me how i can tell if i'm not seeing sub and follower events in my overlay due to twitch or if there is an issue with streamelements. Had some issues on Monday and not sure how to track the source of the problem. for the record I had 2 subs and 1 follow but i did not see these events
@lofty geyser Did you recently change your name or recently become affiliate?
nope, on both accounts, i have been affiliate for a few months and the name has never been changed
When the people subbed did you see anything in the Twitch chat at all?
nope, but to be fair i had ankhbot running and didn't see the events there either
so i suspect it's twitch being a pain
but it's a new install of ankhbot (Streamlabs) so i could have something messed up there
hmm Sean i cant use them as preview image for items in the shop
only option is to delete them
@lofty geyser If the people shared their sub you'd have seen something in the chat, the fact you didn't see anything means they didn't share it which is why we didn't pick up the event
hmm what about the follow?
@surreal estuary Ahh for the store, yeah that needs to be an image/gif
i only call it out as a few others in our twitch team have had issues over the last few days
@lofty geyser Follow alerts are normally done within 30 seconds of the event, longer if you're offline. Haven't heard anybody mention them being missed all together. Although you mentioned SL so are you talking about not seeing it in their software or our site?
i didn't see it in either
Was it a re-follow?
nope, new as far as i'm aware. i guess they could have followed when i was offline, unfollow and refollowed when i was live, but i wouldn't know that
ok it sounds like this is a twitch thing. i'll keep an eye on it over the next few streams and get back in touch if we're still having issues.
thanks for the quick replies 😉
Alright 😃 no problem
WebM support would be cool because gif and audio files unsync also to change the lengh of the alert via items ..
could i get some assistance with my overlays in ace live streaming?
they are huge and i cant make them smaller
example
@tight harness and @winter zenith - Test run of using SE like I asked about earlier 😃 https://youtu.be/bQTQntHELsE
An example of using chat commands to play a gif & mp3 using Streamelements. This was just a test run.
Nice 😃
Pretty sure it's on the ideas board: https://strms.net/ideas
great 😄

oh my appoilgies
Hello Guys.
So what about "Points refunds problem"? It still alive and hurts
I mean - when u press X button in redemptions and wanna to refund points. But it doesn't work...
It is acknowledged and on the bug task list https://streamelements.helprace.com/i704-when-rejecting-store-redemptions-it-does-not-refund
I'm stil having issue with my link protection not working.. any idea what it could be?
There's no ETA because there are many tasks that are being worked on (both new features and bug fixes). It will be addressed as soon as possible @rough jacinth
@south shale Hi, I'll take a look at your settings. What exactly is not working properly?
@clever mango hey, i have link protection on but links are still able to be posted regardless of role 😦
Ah, ok I'll take a look
Ok, all fixed now. The problems were that the bot was not a moderator and it was muted.
@south shale my maaaaaaaaaaaaaan
It will now timeout 2sec and delete links from non-subs
With ${random.pick}, what's the separator between arguments?
,
Sorry
misspoke
Each argument needs to be wrapped with ' '
'option1''option2''option3''option4'
Would using apostrophes in that sentence break it?
Or is there an escape for it?
Like \' or something?
it would break if a word like don't is included
Welp, time to Google apostrophe-like characters
Thanks Buck
what do you need help with
Yo guys, is there a way to delete multiple commands? Either I'm blind or I dunno how to ._.
https://strms.net/welcome checkout these tutorials @naive field browser source will look like this
Make sure to :ballot_box_with_check: “Shutdown source when not visible” for all browser sources (all OBS scenes). If using studio mode, uncheck “Swap Preview/Output scenes After Transitioning.” 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
@cold harness not multiple commands at once no
a good idea tho! feel free to add it to our ideas board 😃
I think I messed up when importing and I have a lot the same ones LUL
thanks though

where do i go to find more images and things to use in my overlays/
google, make them, or commission an artist 😃
we have preset themes under themes as well if you’re interested 😃
coulld someone join the voice support so i can ask my questions?
giphy and imgur are good places for gifs and images
Can someone help me and my friend? The bot won't work/appear in his channel. Are someone able to help us? @here
Hello, this is my first time messaging in this server. Can anyone tell me if animated overlays cause extra work on the system to stream. I only have a single system I am using to both stream and game
Yes @cunning estuary animations cause more stress on CPU but it all depends how you use it. Finetune till it works for you is my advice. What is your CPU?
@lone flax is someone helping you allready? If not can you tell me the twitch name of your friend?
His name is Knutsp
@lone flax your friend isnt streaming right now right?
@winter zenith Nope, we were just streaming and the bot never worked during it.
Also did you parted the Bot from twitch, loged out, loged back in with twitch and put the bot back into the channel?
Hello, I️ am new to this server. I️ had recently made my channel and I️ play fortnite on Xbox. I️ have an elgato capture card and connected it to my Microsoft surface book. I️ also have the elgato download and use that. I️ have never streamed yet but I️ am planning too. No face cam yet just mic. I️ have a panel I️ created but I️ need some tips on my first stream. If you have any please message me back. Thx
@full laurel this channel is for Technical issues with the SE services 
How do I set up bot commands
In general more people will see your message and can help you form your stream 
@trim pebble if you are on the Stream Elements Dashboard you can see the Bot settings on the left side if you scroll down
@winter zenith Thanks for your help! The bot atleast came alive in our chat 😄
from there you can enable moduals, make costom commands and more
@misty wagon I'm using a ryzen 5 1600 (oc 3.8 ghz). what do you mean by finetuning an animated overlay? I often use the ones from the website, but I switched to static overlays until I know more about it
fine tuning means maybe shift your CPU and GPU workings around
I found the bot commands. Thank you @winter zenith
No problem 
@cunning estuary that's a descent pc so you should have no issues with your CPU. What kind of gfx card do you have?
gtx 980 oc - 1519 mhz : MEM 3800 mhz
That combination should have no problem with animated overlays. Just don't overdo it with things like KappaGen
ah, thank you very much! @misty wagon
Hey! So my friend started streaming recently and wants me to help him with everything that is happening in the background. He decided for some user made overlay and I helped him modifying it to his needs. He wanted to have a small chatbox in the bottom left corner, it all worked fine until he changed something, becasue he wanted it transparent. So he deleted the one and got a new one from widgets, set it to custom, applied black colour and set oppacity to 0.2. Problem is, nothing appears in chat anymore, even If I try to use the normal balck chat box or the other options
hello just wondering how i can get my overlay onto my stream? if anyone could help me out that would be great thx
@gleaming ferry To add your overlays to OBS, add a new browser source in your scene. Paste your overlay URL in the browser source properties, set the dimensions to 1920x1080 (unless you changed them on the website), and :ballot_box_with_check: “Shutdown source when not visible” https://youtu.be/KDvLynUqXI4
thx
@mortal cedar Tell them to click on Background Colour and then change it to rgba(255, 255, 255, 0) but leave the opacity at 100.
Strange, worked fine when I tested it before informing you 😄
well, none of the chat boxes work anymore
Did they put the opacity up and set a solid text colour?
That code is only meant for the background colour
And on the Custom theme
Deleting and remaking it should set the default settings for the widget
just tried it
nothing
I think he may have fucked up something else, but he said chat box just stopped working a few days ago, I sadly don't have any backups left
Working fine here so I'm not sure what they've done
The twitch chat is linked to stream labs by default and there is no way to unlink it right?
I'm gonna try creating a new layout real quick
I'm not sure what you mean by linked to SL
No problem
the names are so similar
The Streamlabs Sync App for Chrome seems to be broken
also would be great if streamelements could use there api
@surreal estuary Have you checked to see if it imported?
i guess not because all viewer got loyality points of zero
Points come from the SL chatbot
So not their API
What exactly were you importing?
Right, so did you check your Tip List?
yes its empty
Do you know how to check the browser console for errors?
in firefox only with firebug,- no idea for chrome
F12
okay i see some console error messages, question is just if the app can also be debugged with it
may i send it to you in private?
Sure
Even with a totally new overlay chat does not show up
I don't understand how that's possible, nobody has ever had that issue before 
Could you give me their username and i'll look into this
@mortal cedar Okay first of all the bot isn't in the channel, so it can't put what's said in the chat into the widget
ahh yeah, I tried disabling it some moments ago
And also, the widget is editing just fine on their account, I just did it myself
forgot to turn it on again
editing is fine, it doesn't show anything that is typed in twitch chat
Right, I see what you mean
Could it be something on the twitch side?
Very possibly
I'm gonna try hooking it up to KapChat, so we can see if it works there
that works
weird
I just tested on my own account and it's working fine 🤔
I actually created a brand new chat widget next to an old one that I had to check it wasn't an issue with new chat widgets, both worked
I wouldn't wonder if he messed around with the wrong settings woithout understanding what it does, he does that sometimes
Doesn't explain why a brand new chat widget doesn't show the chat though
hmmm
(Randome thought) Did you renamed your twitch?
Maybe chat cant fin the right chatroom? :x
Huh, didn't think of that
if your friend changed their name they need to click on Part Channel, sign out, sign back in then click on Join Channel
he did, but I think it was before we started using SE, but I will tell him to do so
Pls 🙏
I hope it's that 😄
Me too
Thank you 
Thank You! 

Let us know if it worked 
i sure will
found a small bug in the loyality shop. The command doesn't accept "Ü, Ä and Ö", i mean it will accept but not display it
Hi, is anyone from support available to talk at the moment?
Ricerman
Need a help with my profile page setup
What's up?
need a help in setting up my profile of stream elements
in my profile it's displaying youtube.com/prava1996 but it's redirecting to twitch.tv/prava1996
Can anybody help me with that
It's working fine for me
When I click on the youtube logo it goes to your youtube page
can you show me with a screenshot what the page looks like when you hover over the youtube icon
?
logo is working perfectly but the link
the link just below my name
it's not working
oh that link
yes
My song request queue seems to be repeating the odd song
Mine as well. Plus randomly skipping near the end of songs and saying "Video is not available in your country" after playing through nearly the entire thing
anyone available to give me a hand for a sec?
It also keeps telling people "song is in the queue" when the song request is empty
I cant get the overlay creator to work, the url it sends me to is blank, I put the url into xsplit anyways to check and still nothing. no overlay
@misty wagon not now, i go to work in 20min, will be back in 5h or so 😄
Oh sorry @sullen aspen have a good one @ebon forum
Feel free to message me all that stuff anyway
Yes DM him, solved! That solved, time for me to go see the Panda

@thick eagle Noted and looking into
Why do people that sub to me for the first time ever pop up with “so and so resubbed for x amount of months?” It should just say they subbed.
Also... I have a problem where people hosting me doesn’t always pop up an alert. I have it set where it has to be a minimum of 3 for an alert to pop up but it still doesn’t when people host me with more.
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.
@last tangle when you test a sub does it show so and so months?
It always says "resubbed"
is this a custom alertbox or one from a supertheme @last tangle ?
Custom I believe. It didnt always use to do this
Okay now Ive somehow reset my total subs thing.. Its saying i only have 2 but i have like 40 something
https://streamelements.com/dashboard/session go here and refresh your aggregates and totals
and update anything else that seems off
If I redo my alert box then wont it delete all my custom settings for certain alerts?
for testing purposes you can add another alertbox and uncheck subscribers on the old one and just check subscribers on the new one
so have main uncheck sub and new one only have sub checked
@last tangle
Just wondering if you guys at stream elements are still working on a way for console players to stream music thru the bot itself rather than the stream. I talked to someone months back on your staff that told me you guys were working on something simliar
I need a bit of help i'm on vacation and i brought a computer with me but i am trying to stream and it seems laggy for my friends but not for me on my end if someone could dm me so i can share screens that would be nice need help editing settings etc
^your internet speed on vacation may just be ... bad?
I think so too, also maybe bitrate too high?
Hi, I'm wondering if there's a time limit on Giveaway feature. Like if I can open it for days or it'll close after a certain time? Thanks
@grim condor you can leave them open, we've had people leave them open for at least a month before
Is there any way for a command to respond on several lines? For example, have the bot do a timeout and respond with a joke.
thank you
@tight harness Thank you
No problem 
@valid perch No, there's something to do with Twitch chat that prevents it, the main issue is it could be used to spam Twitch chats which could cause problems for the bot
ook, thanks!
There is no FlipCoin command from the bot huh?
@celest temple Flip coin? there's no default one but you could technically make one with the variable: ${random.pick 'Heads' 'Tails'}
HI i had a question is there a way to make the twitch chat log transparent?
@frigid radish On an overlay?
yes
You set the Theme to Custom and then by default the background is transparent, you then just need to go into Text Settings and set a suitable text colour
this is what's happening, i have added the twitch chat log on a separate overlay and added it to my scene using browsers source
want to get rid of the gray background
Yeah, that's what I was telling you how to do before 😃
Your theme is set to 'Dark' currently
Change it to 'Custom'
Yes, that's the second part of the instructions I gave
You then just need to go into Text Settings and set a suitable text colour
YOU GUYS ARE AWESOME


I so want to join the team but still noob

we have many noobs here
yup 
Yeah like @dense jackal
xD
teaching friends to get better foundation of SE
yeah see @dense jackal
