alright
yeah, once i transition, i close studio mode
whats studio mode again?
It allows you to preload scenes
ok
kk
you can activate it and deactivate it by clicking on that button
Y'all are awesome helpers lol
you can also setup a hotkey for it as well
ill do that in a moment and let you know if i have any more questions/problems
You can get a little bit of ground control integration with it and the hotkeys
Open app and song/video control
nice, now we just need some native support love from elgato 
hi all, quick question i hope
i got my first tip yesterday, and though my paypal worked properly and is linked to streamelements, i got no notification, also my overlay never updated to show it
any ideas what i'm doing wrong?
Alice is too fast for me
❤
ty alice i will try!
https://streamelements.com/callmenala/tip this is your link but you need to set up your settings first.
i think i got it, but what settings do you mean?
First link i sent you
ok thank you
how do i get the chat to appere on stream?
there should be a widget for chat that you can add to your overlay
🤔 I don't recall the exact location in the widgets or what it is called exactly, I am at work so I have limited access, otherwise I would send a screenshot
If someone does not step in and answer before I get home, I can grab a screenshot when I get home
nvm i found it by using my brain 😛

can I add music to the overlay like pandora or spotifty for when the stream is startin?
you can play the music on your pc
or use groundcontrol for youtube playlists
but there isn't a spotify option at the moment
or pandora?
@lament blade if you want to let your viewers see what you are currently listening on spotify, i recommend adding the spotify social panel on your twitch, this will only work for people watching from a pc and not for mobile users
doe this wont be shown directly on you stream overlay, it kinda works
I play music reguardless I was just wondering if there was an option ^w^
Why I have the currently playing area blank and use snip
^snip work perfectly for a "Currently playing"
Just needs to find a way to make it more quicker
okie thank chu all
can you setup the giveaway to last a few days?
Giveaway will last as long as you don't end it manually @lean idol !
So it could last a few months if needed !
cool, and how is a winner chosen?
When you end the giveaway, no other participant can join. A button "Draw a Winner" pops up, and when you click on it, one of the bearers of a ticket is chosen !
ok so its like a raffle?
Yup !
Using their Loyalty Points, each viewer can buy a certain amount of tickets that will decide the percentage of chance they have to win the giveaway
If you want all odds to be the same, just put the maximum ticket to one per user, and check the "Give everyone their first ticket for free" !
ok, cheers,
Pleasure ! 😁
suggestions to capture song requests in obs havent had any luck in finding a capture that will play the songs on my stream
Hi, can I delete custom commands?
I cant find where on streamelements browser!
@pale pagoda what is your current streaming setup like now that you cant get song requests on your stream?
im trying out obs and cant find a source to add that will capture the sound from either the sr page or ground control. i am streaming a xbox 1 using a elgato capture. i have my overlays just fine its only when i try to source for songrequest that i cant seem to get the right one to pull the audio
the songs should just be coming from the desktop audio, so whatever your speakers are for the pc should work as the audio source to get the song requests on stream
i think elgato also as their own audio app, not sure if that would help for "mixing" the audio
thank you

Hey I need help setting up my twitch account with my stream elements. It says I have more than one account which I havent done. So its not letting me set it up.
If anyone has a solution
Can you send me a screenshot of what happens?
@nocturne vortex Clicking this little icon should get your custom command deleted !
You might have to zoom out for that
hoping no one can screw with my account with the ID XD
Thats good lol
Never mind I figured out why its saying that. When I set it up it automatically connected twitch as owner
When I try to send a template to air on Twitch, the overlay goes to a a new tab, but I don’t see it. Is there something I need to do get it to send to OBS instead?
you need to take the link for your overlay, and add it as a browser source in OBS
you will want to set it up something like that. If you dont have the best streaming pc, you can try 30 fps for a bit less cpu usage
What is the url for one’s tipping page? I need to give just the url to someone
Nvrmnd- found it
@narrow coyote thank you for the help. I’ll try it tonight.

Hey does anyone know if it's possible for me to connect a second monitor to my desktop. My desktop doesnt have the hookup that uses pins all I have is 1 extra USB port
Maybe you could ask that on #welcome ? this channel is more for StreamElements related questions 😄
Okie dokie
Sorry if this is a repeat question, my computer died the other day before I saw an answer, but is there a command to gift loyalty points from yourself to another person (rather than adding and subtracting with setpoints)?
i think !givepoints is what you are looking for
!givepoints username 123
@finite viper ^
Hi, im having trouble with !Commands, its not showing the actual channel in the link so not working, i have full access to that channel, im my channel it works fine, how can i edit it in? as the link is broken and looking like this You can find a list of all Commands here
https://StreamElements.com//commands instead of https://StreamElements.com/fungoose_/commands
do you have it enabled in your commands? I think it might be disabled by default


@limber bane did you recently change your twitch name or anything like that?
might be worth trying having the bot leave the channel, and rejoin
@narrow coyote No I didnt, I am trying to set it all up in a channel i mod but have full access to his Elements. It works in mine, but when I go to his one the command doesnt insert the name
🤔 Not sure on that, as I don't have experience with that, might need to wait for someone with more experience on that matter chime in
one thought you could try
try making a custom command, like commands2, and give it the response:
You can find a list of all Commands here https://StreamElements.com/${channel.alias}/commands
it would be interesting to see if you get the same results, because that is what the default command should be doing
@narrow coyote https://StreamElements.com//commands <-- its not putting the channel in for some reason even with that if you want to jump in fungoose_ and have a look for yourself, it works in mine angel_x
My offline timed messages won’t turn off. Help when you get a chance please and tag my name too pretty please. Thanks!
I hit submit also
yeah, I did peek into FunGoose earlier, and saw the bad link, I am looking to see if anyone has come across this issue before. Also, can you edit the last comment to just have the twitch usernames, I dont want someone to see it, and nuke it thinking there is self promoting going on 
I might just in the mean time make a manual link
@coarse heath How often does it go off? and try setting chat lines to 0
Chat lines are set to 0. Lines go off as if the box were ticked... so I set them as high as possible at 120min so they’d go off less frequently but would prefer it do as I ask and not go off at all - thanks @dense jackal !
My bad I meant not to 0 @coarse heath
The way the timer works is it checks if that many chat lines have passed in that many times
I just tested with a timer, and disabling the offline interval worked 🤔 is there maybe another timer that is displaying the message
But...... wouldn’t that affect the times I want to go off when I’m online??? I think yes ^_^
Yes it would, but unchecking offline should fix your problem. Would you mind going here and sending me a control link to your account so I can check it out? @coarse heath Feel free to revoke my access after
We just tested unchecking offline and it seems to be working for us, as @narrow coyote said. So I want to look into your account and see what the issue could be
Terra has access... I’ll get with him - thanks bunches!!!
Alright then 😄
I just figured it out @dense jackal it continues to go off if I host someone!!! Essentially it is as though I’m online. Cool then. No problem and thanks
🤔 definitely a bug then interesting. I'll make sure it's reported
How do I add a timer to my stream, like a countdown timer for a 24 hour stream? Also, how do I change the writing for when someone follows me. In stead of it saying so and so followed you it would say something else?
is there any way to add a donate command where viewers (non-mods) can give points to each other?
for a 24 hour stream countdown you can use the countdown widget, but I would suggest putting it on a separate overlay and make it so that it is always on and is just the timer
@Pacos#9966
as for the donation check the settings of the follows check the alert message @slim hazel
@paper sparrow !givepoints is a defualt command that will do that
so "!givepoints tomathin 100" would take the users points and give 100 to me
Thank you!
@dense jackal the in game client overlay is bugged i think https://gyazo.com/f90c579dd7e4b2cef5368229553e892e
it looks like you have multiple overlays
How do you make it so you can have music in your stream?
do you happen to know which source you do that through?
@dense jackal yea i have 2 1 for game client and in game client
its just the 2nd in game client is over the first client
Damn that bot is spamming again, Why the hell is it so tempermental, Id rather it spam a message every 10 mins per 10 lines or so, Not every damn minute
Also does stream elements offer any free starting soon overlays?
Yep check our super thems every one has a starting soon overlay @slim hazel
@thick lake the desktop audio source
Thanks again
@livid ingot Is it spamming a timer? can you show me what timer?
Hi @vapid badge thanks you. Wierd before I didnt see this buttons! thanks works now! cya
Like that:
Can you show me the timers in SE are the chat lines set to 0?
@dense jackal Hey, I was the person with the double alerts sounds. Disabling the browser sources when not visible solved it. Thank you!
Never knew it worked that way tbh. Seems kind of wasteful to have them function when in a different scene.
by default at least
Unless its ment to be different?
So basically the way timer works, is every ten minutes it would check if 10 chat lines have past, if they have it will post the timer. If it's quiet for awhile, and then 10 minutes pass with 10 chatlines, ALL the timers would go off because they would all read ten chat lines in the past 10 minutes
So to stagger them more, make them last longer or have more chat lines etc.
Would you mind linking me to the Super Thems @dense jackal ? Or telling me how to access it.
It's an option on the left @slim hazel https://streamelements.com/dashboard/themes
Awesome thank you.
np 😄
I play such an old game it won't be in here. Will just go with a random one. Ultima Online is olldd
lol
hi there
just saw you in chat
i meant the custom bot
i restarted the app a bunch
never changed any settings
it worked last night
@atomic hollow @dense jackal
!rename
using test function sets off standard bot
Did you follow all of those steps ^
hmmmm I tested it today so it should be working fine
idk whats up then
just tried disabling and re-enabling
nothing
it should be posting as Tronb0t
i was afraid youd say that lol
ok
nope
not working
did oauth, restarted app, restarted session, nothing
weird right
did you part and rejoin bot, just in case?
ill do that
gotta try everything at this point, lol
That pretty much covers everything I know about it. only thing we can do is an all in one sweep. Log out of SE, clear cache, close ground control. Open task manager, make sure there is no bot.exe or anything else from GC remaining. End it if there is. Log back into SE, part and rejoin bot. Wait 2 minutes. Open GC, give about 2 minutes, and test bot name. If that doesn't work, we will need to find a sacrifice to give the bot
We'll look into this and see if theres something that has changed recently 😄
looks like the condensed version of the tip goal doesn't show the fill for the bar? https://i.imgur.com/Nt0tuP3.gifv
nvm, its because a height wasnt set
Still after some advice if anyone knows why Store/commands are dropping a broken link and not including the channel even tho the command does have the channel variable in it?. It works 100% in my channel, and I have full access to the channel im trying to get it to work in, but i have no idea whats going on. Pls help, online help i've also been waiting over 5hrs for an answer 😦
could to take a screencapture of the message with the broken link, so i can take a better look at it 😃
@limber bane
I'll scroll up and repaste it https://streamelements.com//commands instead of https://streamelements.com/fungoose_/commands @vital wyvern Ive disabled it in the chat atm, even making a new link as was suggested earlier still doesnt paste the actual channel name
there should allready be a command for viewers to get the link to his commands, it should be !commands
@limber bane
@vital wyvern yes, and when we do !commands it pastes this https://streamelements.com//commands the channel doesnt get put in. but it works properly on my page, when making a new command with the channel variable in it, still makes the same broken link without the channel
anyone could help im having issues with some command coding
@limber belfry shoot :3
anyway we could jump into a voice channel would make explaining easier
sorry i wont be able to talk as i am currently at work
ok i will try my best to explain
im just not sure what i need to change in some of my commands to make them work properly
${touser} is running away from the stream!! They must be trying to take care of some 'business'.
that first part should be the persons name that entered the command
@atomic hollow if that was to me its not working https://StreamElements.com//store <-- my channel works fine, it doesnt in Fungoose_
@limber belfry there is no ${touser} variable
if you go to the streamelements dashboard then Chat commands and then go to variable you will see all available variables 
Can you help me please I used one of your themes from out of your website to use as an overlay every time I put it into OBS it makes me drop frames is there a reason for this
ok thank you i will see what i can figure out from there thank you for your help @vital wyvern
curioous if anyone know if we can like put in the command like !hype and play a clip of music?
@vale glen Never heard of such thing. Have you tried with a "basic" overlay ?
The one I'm using is the bright green one nearly at the bottom of the page it is basic it's not an animated one at all
@simple frigate Bot commands don't support automated music play. I wonder however if you could get the !hype command up, have the bot send in a !sr in response in chat and have that play a song for you 🤔
Yep that works !
@vale glen if you dont have the browser source checked at "Shutdown source when not visible" this will take up some of your cpu usage. and also take a note that alert from other overlays will also play in the background if you do not have this checked
Do I have to have your page running in the background for all the alerts and the theme to work
@vapid badge how do you do that?
you can either use the activity feed from our website or download the Ground control program 😃 you can find this under the activity feed and on the right side @vale glen
@vale glen
@simple frigate Easy ! Go into your commands, and add a custom command. For the command itself just type in "hype". As for the response just type in "!sr (link of the song that you'd like played)"
(This of course only works if you've songrequest active and your Ground Control running in the background
For the same hype feature ?
If so, sure ! Just edit whatever sound you want in an external software, be it music, or music and video, and upload it to youtube !
Then link to it !
and for some reason my viewers can spam my hype command
You don't want that ?
is there anyway i can make it like 1 second CD?
Sure !
Go into "advanced option" you'll have access to "user cooldown" and "global cooldown" which you can set as you wish !
User CD = The cooldown to one particular user
Global CD = If a user uses the command, it'll be on cooldown for the entirety of your viewers during the set time
Haha was editing a screenshot right then
Even 0 buddy, no cooldown mayhem ! 
cool lets hope it works
Where will I find my jwt token please
If it doesn't, hit me up again, and I'll ask the SE staff if they've got an idea for your problem ! @simple frigate
and then press "Show Secrets" !
(but don't show it to anyone 😶)
@simple frigate No problem, glad I could help ! If you've got any other issue, pop in here whenever you need ! 
great support team!!!
Haha, you know it ✌🏼
@simple frigate Send me a dm, I've got an even better idea for you !hype command !
Yep
I've implemented the stuff that you have suggested it's dropping frames from 60 down to 75 now which is a lot less
From 60 frames down to 57 sorry
@vital wyvern
could you dm me a screencapture of your streaming program? like you overlays and such
have you ticked shutdown sources when not visible?
@simple frigate what platform are you using? I’ve been wondering the same thing BUT I’m currently gaming directly from my Xbox one. It shouldn’t matter because !sr works, i should just have to create the command, right?
!obshelp
@vale glen it might be a obs issue still, but il take a close look on our end
anyone with good infos about setting up paypal/ donations can join voice maybe?
I can't join voice but I'm here if you need help
all you need is to create a paypal account and link it on StreamElements tip page
can i pm you
sure, no need to ask 😃
Rippz0r helped me with my issue. He did it quick and easy. Thanks man!
you're welcome mate 
Darn it! For so long ive tried to figure out, how do i copy one Custom made Widget, lets say donation goal widget. ANd instead of ree-doing it on next overlay, how do i simply save it / copy paste it to the next one? Anyone can help?
But how do i Copy / paste it?
OHHHH
oh Gosh, i dont think i payed enough attention last time ive tried this then
Feel so dumb...
@atomic hollow Ur a legend and a God at the same time, I am forever thankfull, much love ❤
😂
@tepid raptor are you still looking for a solution for the sound effect command just like Paper Planes?
If so, send me a dm, I'll send you the same steps that I gave Paper to help him out
@stone spire quotes are being reworked so they are not available now
ah
I need help. Kappagen Emote Explosions are no longer sent to OBS. They appear in my streamelements overlay editor but are not sent to OBS. Any suggestions?
added the kappagen widget?
^
yes the widget is added. That is the only way for them to appear in the editor
It all worked fine for a long time, then suddenly stopped. Nothing has changed.
It only doesn't work for cheer events. It works fine for other events
Is your problem specific to one overlay of have you tried the widget on other ones?
let me check
nope, other overlays it's the same. All events show the explosion but not cheering. I have confirmed cheers are selected in the kappagen explosion menu
hmm checking mine
Also, is there a reason why streamelements is no longer putting a chat message when someone hosts me? The onscreen notification happens, but not the chat message. I rely on the chat message because there is a time delay from when it happens to when I see the onscreen notification on my twitch browser.
for host notifications you need to have the dashboard open or ground control
what is ground control?
StreamElements app, sec
can u try disable on kappagen cheers, save, then enable and save again, they are working for me, at least on editor, can't check OBS atm
for the host messages check bot modules/host alerts, see if it's well configured plz
OK I disabled cheers on kappagen, saved, enabled, saved again, and even refreshed the cache for the overlay source on OBS. Still no emote explosion on OBS even though it appears on the editor.
do you have, use the entire screen checked?
I don't understand what you mean by that question.
first option on kappagen
I can't properly test kappagen, launched my overlay on a new tab and mine show, so strange
you can try add a new kappagen widget, see if that works
That's really strange.
just for testing purposes
I guess I could remove it and reinstall it, but that's going to be hassle for all the overlays. I know you can copy a widget, but I would need to delete it from all the overlays. ugh
re: the JWT, it doesn't show one, but asks me to reset. Doing so will log me out. Does this impact any OBS settings?
don't reset, just click show secrets
I clicked the link you gave me. There is nothing that says "show secrets"
ops my bad, check it here https://streamelements.com/dashboard/account/channels
oh wait I found it
sent u wrong link first, sorry 😃
also I don't want you to redo all overlays, just add a new one, if the new one works, means there's something wrong on current
so we can pinpoint what is it and fix on the current kappagen
means, you can use a custom name for the bot, or your own account
for a different name, you need to create a new twitch account for it
You can create an extra account with the name of the bot but you can also use your own account.
Pro of using your own is that when you are live, the bot can use sub-emotes but in this case make sure your offline timers don't use any.
If you choose to use an extra account you have to gift a sub to the bot to use sub-emotes.
The OAuth token is the key to your account, so it uses that to talk. If you give it the oauth for your main account, it will speak as you. So if you want it to have a different name, you have to have an account with that name. You can open this page in an incognito window and login with the name of your bot account. https://twitchapps.com/tmi/
https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/199460642975907840/415894005285650432/Renamebot.png
where do I get the custom bot auth token?
read above, it's explained there 😃
Ok I did all that, Put the oauth code in for my twitch account. I click 'test bot' and I don't see anything happening on my twitch channel. What am I looking for?
lord have mercy. I deleted the kappagen app and reinstalled it just like it was before. Now there are no kappagen emotes even on the editor dashboard!
guys I'm really getting ticked off. none of my commands are working either. There are no bot messages at all. WTF is going on?
I think twitch is having issues
twitch is currently scuffed
I just discovered that
sorry for the frustrated language
OK looks like the streamelements bot is back up and working on twitch even though video is not. I still don't know what 'test bot' is supposed to do for custom bot name.
The test bot option will just have your bot say "Is this thing working ?" in the Twitch chat to check for yourself if the name change actually works @slender yoke
OK. Hard to tell because of the Twitch issues right now. My commands are working, but when I click 'test bot' nothing is happening on my twitch chat.
Yeah Twitch is having a hard time as clicking test bot should give you a result no matter what (should it be StreamElements or CustomBotName)
do I need to have the oAuth text in front of the token text?
ahhhh it works!

wait, no it doesn't. The test comment came from me, but commands still say 'streamElements'
Did you sign into twitch with the bot account ?
Oh I didn't know ground control had to be running
Yeah that too
Ok, well, still having the same problem with the kappagen explosion. I had commented above that I followed the advice to delete the widget, reinstall it, and see if they work. Now they don't appear at all in the editor.
Let me check if I'm having the same problem on my end
never mind. they are back in the editor, but still don't appear in OBS for cheers. All other events are fine.
so weird. I'll let you guys look into it and see if it works later. If not I will bring it up again.
Sure, sounds good @slender yoke
Hello i have problem with downloading the desktop app
How so ?
idk for me isnt working 😦
tried on another browser?
Does Stream elements has a App for desktop? That i can see the number of viewers and comments?
there you go - https://streamelements.com/groundcontrol
translate: No access to this site
@atomic hollow In this app i can see the comments and number of viewers? Or i still need to view on my own twitch page? (google chrome uses a lot of RAM)
oh it doesnt replace your twitch page, that is planned though
Neon I'll send you direct file transfer so it should work fine, hold on
So, what does this app do?
ok djen 😃
It keeps track of the latest activity on your twitch page, helps you manage songrequest in an easier manner, and lets you change your bot's name if you want @carmine ether
I can see the comments in the app? @vapid badge
You mean chat ?
not yet, but planned 😃
⤴
Yes
Thanks
Do you guys know some app that i can see chat, viewers and who followed me? ( i dont wanna to let browser open when i´m streaming)
Trillian does that if I'm not mistaken
Ty ❤
https://help.twitch.tv/customer/portal/articles/1302780-twitch-irc a guide on how to set it up
how do i test alerts??
in your overlay editor there is a blue bell in the lower left corner of the editor view, there are different alert tests that can be triggered from there
ty

make sure there's no other overlays loaded or that you saved after changing sound
or it's probably one variation
Also, OBS will play the test alert, which if you haven't saved, could be triggering the old sound
ive saved it everytime
cause im testing the volume
everytime
the beep is still there
it isn't variations?
follower sound
what is your twitch name (it isn't linked with your discord profile)
I am just loading up your overlay, lol
oh
I only hear the wolf howl from my end, so its possible you have an old alertbox somewhere. I do see you have a second overlay, so you might be hearing it from that as well
i have editor muted
ok, but what about OBS
If you have two overlays, make sure you have the Shutdown when not Visible checked in the sources
the only thing in my obs is my Screen that im testing
i have the old sound in a different scene
but that scene isnt active
soo why would it mnake any noise
okay
changed it int he otehr one
beeps are gone
guess it was somehow making noiser
figured it out
didnt have the shutdown source while inactive chacked off
it's what I said in the begining 😄
thank you for help
you're welcome, glad it's sorted 😃
I'm having a similar issue but I'm hearing it for my subscriber sound and my cheer sound. updated both to a new effect, but it's not updating in the editor. I'm using that to test my effects, will do an obs test once they are all sorted.
That's probably to do with variation settings
this is in my prime force field game overlay
make sure you tick shutdown when not visible on all browser sources and all scenes
+what Legendary said
@safe cedar Did you change the variations as well as the basic alert?
didn't know there were variations in that super theme lol
Absolutely, there's variations for all alert boxes
Click on Variation Settings at the bottom left
k let me go check
thanks. sort of wish there were a way to set default sounds accross the board though
as in every alert box you have starts with the sounds/settings you choose unless you change it
you can disable variations if I'm not mistaken
anyway to make the pubg overlay part that is behind the social links longer??
i ahve 3 social links not 4, soo 2 on 1 and 1 on 1 looks kinda funny lol
which one? see if I can change it for u @spiral pine
sunburst or bullet rain
if it's the animated, nvm 😄
nope... didn't quite work
still getting the chime
changed it in default as well as both variations
yes its the animted one lol
ahh, can't then hehe
have you checked if you marked all browser sources with "Shutdown when not visible" on all scenes @safe cedar ?
I'm only using the overlay editor
but yeah, all browser sources shut down when not in use
oh only in editor 😮
if you changed all 3 and still hear default, then I'm sure that's a cache issue
after changing all and saving overlay, alert + variations, hit ctrl+shift+delete and clear the cache
or just leave the editor and edit it again
will try that
Hello, do auto hosts earn the currency like a normal host?
yeah
can anyone please come on Voice support
problem solved... subscriber alert fixed 😃 ty so much
is there anyway you guys could put a 720p overlay
my PC can only handle a browser source at 720p
nice @safe cedar 😃
you should be able to change the overlay size to 720p on the SE site
If you do that, your widgets will be out of place, and you will need to rearrange them
Have you tried downscalling the overlay in OBS? @cerulean rune Just hit CTRL+F after setting the height to 1920, and width to 1080
that will downscale it to 720p
^ doing this approach is better than having the overlay having a native resolution of 720p
it wont work tho
because the overlay is 1920 to 1080
it breaks my obs
unless i set it exactly to the same size
is there a way to have the bot do an automated command when someone joins the room?
of the overlay in browser
how does it break it?
crashes it
not that I'm aware but I think it's on the ideas board @fallen lava
I would recommend talking with OBS about that issue
its nothing to do with obs
If it isn't OBS, then what is it? I downscale all my browser sources just like that with no issues
@viral gust dang 😦 okay thanks
i have a potato pc, and stream at 720p 30fps, and my browser source for my overlay is 1920x1080. I have never heard of a crash like that
There could be a corruption in the browser source plugin that is causing the crash, or something else entirely. I would talk with the guys at that server I linked. They will be able to hlep get that fixed.
thats the point kiddo
I don't want a 1080p overlay
because my base is not going to be set to 1080p
I can only stream at 720p
Mine isn't either
But I do the downscale, and it works perfectly
I stream at 720|30
if you say so
you could check my vods if you don't believe me
i dont need to check if ur not being helpful
There are only 2-3 things I can think of that could cause your OBS to crash. 1. PC that can't handle it. 2. Browser Source plugin is corrupted (this is possible, it is a plugin, but provided directly with the OBS package. It is not the same as putting an image on the overlay in OBS). 3. Too many sources in a scene (this is common with people that have switched from other providers for overlay widgets).
If its crashing, that is an issue that needs resolved, as it could have residual effects on your stream. What if its something in the install of OBS you made that could cause issues with your stream down the road? Or what if its eating more CPU/GPU than necessary? I highly recommend reaching out to the OBS devs (which I recommended alread), and see what they have to say about it.

He's helping you, though?
ur already blocked too lotus
oh wait... you're that one toxic person.. going to digress immediately.
Hola guys, couldnt really find this in the docs, can I set userlevel & cooldown when I add a command through Twitch chat and if so how?
tbh ur both toxic
@cerulean rune Even if you won't be able to see what this says (you could always unhide it), we are trying to help understand what is going on and fix the issue at hand.IF you really want a 720p overlay, you can change the Overlay resolution on the site, and move all the components to match where they are supposed to be. All overlays are completely customizable.
My commands aren’t working
@onyx oasis I'm not sure if you can add them through Twitch chat.
@lament blade which commands specifically
None
how can i add PaySafeCard to tip List ?
I just tested !ping and it worked @lament blade what commands were u testing?
ah I assumed it was your connected one to discord
He asked me for help and I came to you
The bot isn't in the chat
How do I fix
@cerulean rune Scalper has provided you with all of the correct information, I advise you take it 
@lament blade head here https://streamelements.com/dashboard and click join channel on the right
make sure to also mod the bot once it's in chat
Awesome 😄
Thanks
np
@crimson yew Thats unfortunate, but thanks 😄
Are you not able to access SE site?
@onyx oasis you can add the level and cooldown, Let me see if I can find that info

lol, its old information, not commonly asked now with dashboard access
My apologies, dude. xD
!command add/remove/edit/options/show
Valid flags are: -cd (number) -usercd (number) -cost (number) -level (number) -type (say, whisper or reply) -count (number)
and the user levels: https://i.imgur.com/ciIZBWq.png
yeah understandable, i was using it for a 'command generator' so people can just copy-pasta some custom api stuff in their chat, but couldnt find this info, thanks alot @weary mist
👍
how can i add PaySafeCard to tip List ?
We don't have that option yet, but it is coming
Soon ™
that means people cant donate via Streamelements
Unfortunately if you can't use paypal you cannot donate through StreamElements at this time but this is something we are avidly working on.
ok
@weary mist Ehm do you have an example in what order/format I should use this? I assumed it was something like !command add !test -level=500 test ?
So, first, you create the command with !command add <name> <syntax>. You do not need the ! when creating. Then, you do !cmd options <name> -level=500
Oh I see, separate commands, thanks for clarifying
👍
I had someone on Twitch reach out to me that said they are from SE and wanted to gain ways to contact me. I'd like to know if this person is legit or not but I don't want to put them on blast. I just wanted to give a heads up to the staff in case there is someone out there trying to target SE users.
@lofty tusk We have helpers to go out and spread the word, and tell people about us. Who was it?
FreakDevil_
Yeah he is legit
Yes @north glacier works with us as a promoter
Hello rachie 😃

@atomic hollow Come Voice support
Ah?
Totally understand if it feels weird. We just like to reach out and help whoever we can 😄 If you're curious or If you ever have any questions feel free to ask them here @lofty tusk
@serene granite Come voice support please
Thanks @dense jackal
@lofty tusk hey
Hi @north glacier
don't forget, you can right click a name, and go to profile to see linked accounts 😃
is there future plans for panels that match the overlays?
looks like someone at least proposed the idea for super themes https://streamelements.helprace.com/i445-add-matching-twitch-panels-for-super-themes
is there a delay in twitch.. i always resub a channel aty the 14th, payment also says the 14th as date...but i dont see the resub yet
There might be, not sure. You could ask twitch. They do give you like 10 days leyway
okay thanks
Hey, I was directed here from an email I got, I am looking for some help with growing an audience and maybe some techniques that could be used to reach such goal.
If anyone could give me some advice it would be great, I have been streaming for 2 months now everyday and I feel like I could be growing quicker if I just do the right things.
The biggest thing, @upper umbra, is networking. If you want to grow your audience, you have to grow the people you know. Get into communities, hang out, interact, be friendly, and people will stop by to hang out. Hang out here, #general-chat is a fun place to chat with others 😃 We have a lot of fun here, and support each other when we can. @misty wagon can give you some more copy/pasta's he has for this information
Sorry If I seems lost. But how can I see the chat and etc with Streamelements?
like outside of the stream itself? chat should be coming to Ground Control, with other new features
@weary mist I seem to have some trouble with networking in general, I'm just not very sure on how to get in touch with communities.
what I tend to do is use a popout chat on another monitor, there are also other third party applications that can be used for chat as well
like chat, followers etc,
I use streamlabs chatbot. But currently having huge problems and I need to remove some stuff and etc. To see if it works and wanna know a second way to have the chat, recent follower and more.
Ground Control can show you the notifications like follows and donations, just not chat at this time, but should be one of the features being added
I do what Kite does.
2nd Monitor has Ground Control for Notifications for Follows / Subs/ Cheers
- the Popup chat from Twitch to read the chat.
I do that as well. I run an application called Chatty, its pretty light on the system, and it logs my chat for me
Is Ground control something I download?
Yes it is.
its very customizable
@dense beacon I have several alerts set so I can quickly respond to questions and call outs. Also usually have about 5-10 muted Chrome tabs open to do live support or active supporting for views. Chatty is bae but some people like Chatterino... it's all about personal preferences I guess.
@misty wagon But it works fine with Twitch? 😄
What does the picture show you 😉 What you do need to know is that I don't count as a 'viewer' in the ones I have open in Chatty. That's why i have the Chrome tabs too.
@misty wagon There's a lot of stuff I don't do in those steps such as hosting or hanging out in peoples channels, I will try these out. Thank you very much
Good luck, it's hard (but he, all of streaming is hard work so hence my great respect) but it's worth it. 
@upper umbra don't forget to hang out here as well 😃 we have a ton of fun when we stream together, right @narrow coyote ?
YAR! Many a good times to be had

@weary mist Thanks for the Chatty "recommendation" even if you never said you recommended it. But you took it up ❤
@misty wagon very useful advices
@dense beacon 
I know it's not streamelements issue. But do anyone know a way to get discord only volume bar in obs? So that people could hear those i speak to a bit betteR?
I think people use Banana Voice Meeter for that
ok, one more question for you. I'm using the animated force field super theme and have downloaded the social icons pack. how would I go about switching facebook and instagram for steam andblizzard
yeah, vban would be a good way to handle that
Hello.
hey
How can i give to my viewers 1 point per minute ?
I saw that i am able to give them points per 10 min
You can only do per 10 minutes, so if you set it to 10 points per 10 minutes, it is the same as 1 point per 1 minute
nope

@narrow coyote Vban is the vbanreceptor?
There is no download button for vban only vban rececptor and vban-spot
sorry, did not mean to confuse, I meant voice meter banana https://www.vb-audio.com/Voicemeeter/banana.htm
VoiceMeeter Banana, the Advanced Virtual Audio Mixer by V.Burel
Ahh fuck that. I've tried with it before.. I get it to work.. then next day it's all messed up ..
unfortunately, that is one of the better ways to handle this problem, and its a common issue people have. I usually just live with my discord mates being a little quieter on my stream. The alternative would be to turn them all up in discord, but in my case, then they are way too loud for me
I have turned them all up but someone mentioned today that my friend is quite low. So :S Hmm guess it will work this way. I like when the Voice Meter banan did work. But it only worked for that day and after a restart and a new day = Messed up.. Don't know how as I never changed anything.
heh, I will let you know if I learn anything. I am re-installing my entire setup tonight, that included
yeah, you are not alone, i have seen shroud have issues with banana during stream sometimes
Sucks :3 hahahah
I am looking for another option that is more secure :3
How do you guys work with the songs and music? Being able to pause/play the music while in game and etc. Spotify only or ?
When i do play music, i tend to use the media keys on my keyboard to control
@narrow coyote Meant programs. I love to listen to youtube music as I find those a lot better than the radio's or spotify. But you can't pause/play youtube while ingame. I could download them and put them on spotify and that would work. But then I could not let youtube "sling" the songs.
Ah, I usually just play stuff that is local on my machine, so I use media player classic for that. I know spotify is a big one, and that should work with most media keys on a keyboard. I thought my media keys did work on youtube, but i have not tried in a while, and that might not work if YT is not in focus
Yeah 😛 That's the issue for me :3 Any good suggestions on how to do it? 😄
maybe something like this 🤔 https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/streamkeys/ekpipjofdicppbepocohdlgenahaneen?hl=en
How do you set commands up
@narrow coyote You are a beast ❤ Can I give you a kiss? 😄
hearts are fine
you can send a kiss if you really want, but just so we are on the same page, I am a dude 😘
Who cares 😗 I'm not afraid of such stuff. Fuck the other peopel 😄
just wanted to make sure you knew what you were getting into 
Hahha :3
@keen girder what exactly are you looking to set up?
Just like !discord and then it will link my discord
go here https://streamelements.com/dashboard/bot/commands/custom and click create comand
^
This video also goes over commands, might be helpful https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FUAmzaj70Js
Make the most of StreamElements, learn how to use Chat Commands. ----- Got any questions, or just want to say "Hey"? Join our Discord server: http://bit.ly/D...
For example this @keen girder will mean '!discord' will reply with 'discord.gg/se'
Anyway to do it off phone
you can add a command via your twitch chat
!command add discord (put discord link here)
will create
!discord = (discord link)
Hi, I have a problem with shuffling the backup playlist for song requests. I can shuffle the playlist fine and it will start playing through the new shuffled list but if a user requests a song, when the queue returns to the backup playlist it is no longer shuffled. Does anyone else have this problem?
I believe this is a known bug @normal geode
Ok, thanks 😃 Any idea when it will be fixed?
No ETA unfortunately
Hello to anyone willing to help out! Is there a way to resize a 1080p overlay to 720p? I've found the option to change the overlay project size to 720p, but it doesn't auto resize the layout. I tried to manually do it but I can't select any of the layers that are out of the bounds of the canvas... help!
Keep the canvas at 1920x1080 and resize it in OBS
Set the browser source to 1920x1080 and ctrl+f to fit to your screen in obs
Sorry I should have been more specific. I meant in Stream Elements Overlay Editor... The 1080p animations i have are bogging my obs down regardless of any resizing I do in OBS... So i was hoping to downsize the 1080p overlays i have to 720p in stream elements but it's proving a little difficult...
have you tried using 30fps in OBS for the browser source?
There's no simple way to accomplish it. They're designed to be 1080p. If you change the canvas size you have to manually resize each part of the theme
hello im using obs classic and wanting to use the kappagen via clr browser , unfortunately it shows in the latout editor and webpage but not the browser application on stream just shows a help image
You can copy something like the alert box to another overlay that's 720p and reduce it that way
OBS Classic was deprecated in October of 2016 and is no longer supported by OBS or StreamElements. Please update to OBS Studio at https://obsproject.com
^
damn
Nothing we or you can do about it unfortunately
understood thank you for the immediate feedback
Moving to studio is worth it, much better than classic
new to twitch today, im attempting to overlay a game so that i can tab out without it effecting my stream, how can i do this?
not sure I follow what you are asking exaclty
I'm currently streaming a game, as i tab out from that game my stream freezes up and does weird things, how can i stop this just so that it's focused on the single game capture itself?
that way i can communicate to others without it effecting my viewers
well, that is more of an OBS thing, and will depend on the source, and what you are capturing
if you can use "Game Capture" as your source, it could be smoother for alt tabbing
I am currently using OBS
if you play games in fullscreen, you are better off using borderless windowed if the game supports it, if you alt tab a lot
If you use "Game Capture" as the source, instead of Display Capture, that will just capture the game and whatever else is in your scene
already done 😃
if it works with the game, not all games work with Game Capture
well it's working for me
i wouldn't know what's wrong or what to ask, im brand new to this 😂
no worries, also this support channel is more for StreamElements itself. If you have general OBS questions, or want some streaming tips, you can ask in #welcome
Thank you @narrow coyote
No problem, and welcome to the wonderful world of streaming 
is there away to change stream elements name in twitch chat?
Custom bot name requirements
- StreamElements bot modded and in chat
- Active overlay with alerts
- StreamElements tipping page in the panels below the stream (!panels)
- Register the twitch account for the name you want to use
- Ground Control app must be running
Steps to enable custom name
- Sign in to https://twitch.tv with the bot account
- Install and run Ground Control (!gc for download)
- Visit https://twitchapps.com/tmi/ and generate an oAUTH token
- Copy/paste everything in the box to Ground Control oAuth settings and enter the name for the bot account
- Restart Ground Control (custom name may take a few minutes to take effect)
You will still see StreamElements in your chat, but this will rename the bot name in the responses it posts in chat
hey guys, if i wanted to download the .txt files so i can set them as the file location for text in obs can i download those through streamelements?
Everything with StreamElements is cloud based so you would not be able to download anything. If you are adding text you can add it to your overlay
lol, @stuck hamlet too fast for me 

Hey, Any clue why the custom bot name doesnt come up for me on my ground control?
!rename

i tried streamlabs someone donated to me and it made me add a bank account to accept the money will it do the same for SE
you just need paypal for SE
and you do not need a bank account tied to paypal, I dont have one on mine

I would like a buddy to stream wit cus i hate being by myself
Anyone wanna buddy up
That's the 1080p overlay being made into a 720p overlay
from browser source
and it's the green goblin animated in-game
You set it to 1920x1080 and ctrl +f to fit it to your screen.
I'm saying that's what you should do.
the overlay on the site is 1080p
fitting it to my screen doesn't make it work
as u can see it is fit to my screen
If the overlay on the site is 1080p, you add it as a browser source at 1080p to match the site. Obs downscales it to 720p if that's what you stream at
I'm not familiar with the overlay but looks normal to me.
it's alot smaller then a 720p overlay
lol
anyhow
I just kindly suggest to have 720p overlays
but again
It's made for Dota where hud is covering a lot of space
I'm still suggesting to have 720p overlays
a person on a 1366x768 computer isn't going to be running at 1080p unless they really want to force more data then needed
yes ik that you put a higher bit rate
but at the same time a larger browser souce means more unstability if your computer isn't supposed to be at that resolution
@lament blade fortnite?
Or take it to #general-chat, we don't mind
Oke thank you :) @weary mist
I have a small issue adding sounds to alerts, is there a file size limit or a file type that ive missed?
@humble summit No, there is no limit (except maybe a file size of 1gb
). What alert are you trying to update
tyvm Scalper 🙃
lol, not sure I have helped yet, just asked a questions 
how do i reset my tip goal
@lunar furnace If you are using the total follower/total subscriber widget, reset your session from the Activity Feed to fetch updated data from twitch. If you’re using goal widgets, you can edit the progress of any goal by going to Activity Feed > Widget Data > Goals. This can also be found in the overlay editor by selecting DATA (next to WIDGETS) > Goals
applies to all goals
thank you i didnt even think to look there LOL
It's where all widgets get their magic from 😃
@lament blade Please post general streaming questions in #welcome. Thanks 😃
@everyone
Please refrain from using [at]everyone or [at]here
i need help stream elements

You can always @ supportheroes if it is indeed urgent 
First things first you need the bot in your chat @marsh wadi You can add it from the dashboard
and then mod it once it's in chat
There it is running now
thank you
@marsh wadi mind if we test an alert?
it's ok we understand 
i got the alert, but now its not in recent events and thats where i go to name peopole off
Sorted in stream chat ⤴
It was a test alert which is why it didn't show in the recent events 😄

@marsh wadi You joined x:26 and claimed to been waiting a while at x:27 AFTER you wrote several msgs. I suggest you change your name to TheFlash 
^Bloody memers 
All good 


I'm so happy that you said that @marsh wadi honestly, you have no idea. Thanks for that, appreciated
yeah no problem man, i appreciate all of you
feels glorified, share the warmth folks!
wait, that came out wrong with a person named Satan 
Actually going to watch an episode of Lucifer now while keeping an eye out 
hahaha i have a way of glorifyin folks too
mesmerizing 
alright now that everythings working, ima go back to focusing on chat and what not, thanks for all the support you guys are life savers.

is a way to drag your layers around?
hey there! so I have stuff in my loyalty store but I can't redeem it via chat and neither can my viewers. It is set to redeem in chat I'm not sure why it's not working
No problem 😄
is there a way to make a !hightlight or !hl that can save to a google doc?
Don't believe so
Hi Team, Not sure if this has been raised yet.
Over the last 2 nights of streaming i have had the !points command freeze up and not respond, other commands continued to operate during this time.
I tried kicking and re-adding the bot and that didn't resolve it but disabling and re-enabling the !points default command got it going again.
Yea first time was just normal activity and second time (last night) was during a giveaway so everybody was checking points at the same time
next time it happens, check custom commands and see if it works find. Compare default and custom
its a rare thing that happens, but we are trying to figure it out
It could be your global or user cool down as well @ancient iron making it seem laggy
I'll check the Custom commands at the time. i know things like !redeem !store were working fine so was !ticket but they seem global
wasn't user cooldown as i never use that command but did to test it and it didnt work for me. i don't think i have a global cooldown active as quite often i get a !points spam in stream with no issue
just checked global CD is default 1 sec and user is 5 sec
Got it
was just worth a check
yep
will keep you posted if it happens again i will try a custom command and report back
got it 😄
is there a way to create a giveaway with a list of users already in ?
Hey guys, question
Not at this time @slender cliff but I like that idea add it to our #💭︱feedback-and-ideas channel
with 1upcoin platform, how do the alert variations work with the $ value
When integrated with SE of course
@dense jackal done thanks
Also, what's the purpose of linking youtube as a channel in acc settings?
Yo ucan setup overlays and stuff for youtubes 😄
ah
is there any way to customize the contests to make the win rates vary?
so for example, someone bets on something, they win twice or thrice the amount they bet
uhh
thank you
developers
this helped me so much
i just want to thank all the devs of this bot
THANK YOU
i cant thank you enough
😄
@limber kettle not at this time @stuck hamlet was talking to @stone spire
and no problem
we appreciate the love !
this bot will prob help me alot through my twitch journey until i get a good pc, then i can use StreamLabs
btw @dense jackal
is streamlabs the same devs of streamElements?
ah, so it's something that's gonna be added in the future?
and if not, do ya have any recommendation for something that could do what i'm looking for?
@lament blade No we are two completely different companies. StreamElements is the way to go though 😄
@stuck hamlet it went into my donations list
and increased the counter on dashboard
dw, it's a good thing hah
@limber kettle you can add it to our #💭︱feedback-and-ideas page I want that as well. Not really something we can do that atm. I apologize for the late response I am witnessing history https://www.twitch.tv/ninja
gotcha, and no worries! everyone deserves their bit of free time 
hi maybe this is not the right place to ask but i dident know where els, but anybody know where i can find a free red alert overlay ? or like a overlay for old school games with a simple info bar at bottom and top, would prefar c&c red alert theme but any can work. good day 😃
@brazen moon we got some great premade overlays that you can edit as much as you like 😃 you can find them under the "Themes gallary" on StreamElements dashboard (https://streamelements.com/dashboard/themes)
chanpai u do idd have awesome overlays available already but i checked those doesnt seem to fit with c&c :S idk.
allright
then i recommend checking out #art-marketplace for any artists that fit your style of overlay/banners/emotes/alerts :3
okay will do, i did make my own already but its kinda meh 😄
Is there a possible way to add a list two followers that want to join my game?
Say for example if I have a full Lobby and followers want to join me is there a way I can put a waitlist or have them entered into a waitlist
is there a way to rotate text? like latest sub etc?
do i need to remake it ot see it?
add it as a widget
i guess im not seeing
no the rotate option
add them, you will see that they rotate
ok thx
where will i see it at? im onthe ones u circled and nothing
xD
i mean rotate the text on an axis
lul
shadow LUL
