@weary mist no better internet around? 2k is really sad ninjaaSS

weary mist
#

it is super sad

#

murica is behind in their infrustructure, especially where I live

#

I have to stream off my phone internet just to have a stable connection

lament blade
#

What's the easiest way to allow streamers for your team channel to be able to host/raid without giving them too many permissions?

ebon forum
#

@weary mist yeah, some places have google fibre and some places got stuck in middle ages.

gentle imp
#

they don't need permissions to host you

lament blade
#

no

#

i mean

#

allowed streamer on your channel

weary mist
#

hosts/raiding doesn't need permissions, they can do it whenever. But I feel like you are asking about something else

#

Something you can do to help is have everyone turn on autohosting, and put priority for team-mates

lament blade
#

If they are on your stream team, and they want to raid/host someone while they are on your channel, how can it be achieved without needing a super moderator or w/e its called.

weary mist
#

oh, they have to do it from their own channel

lament blade
#

oh really? 😦

weary mist
#

If they type the command from your channel, they are trying to trigger it for your channel

lament blade
#

oh okay

weary mist
#

They have to initiate the command from their chat

lament blade
#

So they use there account on the team channel?

#

in order to activate the command

weary mist
#

Let me make sure the terms we are using have the same definition

lament blade
#

mkk

weary mist
#

For me, Team is someone that streams, but has a different channel that they stream from (Twitch Teams kinda thing).

#

I get the feeling you are talking about multip[le people that stream from the same channel

lament blade
#

yes

warped nymph
#

Hey

weary mist
#

In that case, you will have to give them those permissions if you want them to be able to host/raid. there is really no way around it

warped nymph
#

Why is my name changed?

weary mist
#

We pull the first part of your name out automatically

lament blade
#

am i able to limit the permissions they have access to?

weary mist
#

@lament blade That is specifically something twitch side, you might want to ask them

lament blade
#

ight

#

thank you

weary mist
#

@warped nymph everyone here is a streamer. If you want your channel easily reachable, link it to your discord profile, turn on streamer mode, and then sellout

#

Streamer mode will change your activity icon to streaming when you are live, and sellout will get an announcement here when you go live

nocturne pelicanBOT
#

@warped nymph Are you a StreamElements all-in-one streamer and interested in stream promotion when you go live? Please fill out this application https://strms.net/sellout and if you meet the 3 requirements posted in the :pushpin: pinned message in #general you will be added to the stream announcements.

#

It doesn't tell me there's an update from 21.1.0 seanGiga

weary terrace
#

fiery shuttle
#

ill check those out thanks @weary mist

surreal fern
#

hi, does anyone know how to fix tts on donations? thanks

tight harness
#

What seems to be the issue with them?

surreal fern
#

well not "fix" per say, how do i get tts on donations?

winter zenith
#

@surreal fern when you insert the Alertbox Widget in the Overlay Editor (or have one already) you can click on the widget and select Donations

#

there you see a TTS tab on the bottom

#

Down there it sayes TTS Settings

plain locust
#

I am trying to get the store redemption alert widget in the overlay editor to link up with the images I have representing the items but all I see is a giftbox gif when I test store redemption am I missing something?

winter zenith
#

you can also ad variations for different amounts so they would have different voices

#

@plain locust you have to test them via Chat

#

if you test it in the Overlay editor it will always show the default one unfortunately

plain locust
#

ah I see thank you

fierce trench
#

weres the chat bot

winter zenith
#

did you let it join your channel?

#

on the dashboard?

fierce trench
#

?

narrow coyote
quasi raft
#

^

fierce trench
#

ye its not in it

narrow coyote
#

right side

fierce trench
#

i did it but it never joined

narrow coyote
#

its there, its just not modded in your channel

quasi raft
#

yeah

narrow coyote
#

need to mod the bot

fierce trench
#

?

narrow coyote
#

/mod streamelements

#

⤴ do that in your chat

fierce trench
#

their

#

it said it was already a mod

lament blade
#

Why my tip goal show 3/249€ ? I havent get any donations yet?

quasi raft
#

its probably a bug; happens to me when i test tips on the overlay

winter zenith
#

did you imported from streamlabs? @lament blade

serene granite
#

@fierce trench thats just twitch viewerlists being problematic, you can use /mods to see the actual list of mods

narrow coyote
#

⤴ that is from your channel... bot is alive

lament blade
#

no

#

i did test donation via 1upcoin

winter zenith
#

maybe thats it

#

just clear the goal by going into the Overlay editor, click on DATA and then to goals

fierce trench
#

do i have to have tipping

winter zenith
#

if you test it with StreamElements it will reset by default. But with 1Upcoin thats a external thing so you need to reset it manually

narrow coyote
#

If you dont want to accept tips, that is up to you

lament blade
#

not working

#

okay

#

solved

quasi raft
#

nice

winter zenith
#

great

narrow coyote
lament blade
#

SE using gogle fonts?

narrow coyote
#

yes

lament blade
#

every of them?

narrow coyote
#

most of them work, there are a few that do not

#

if you try a font, and it does not work, let us know

fiery shuttle
#

so im creating a new overlay now so I only just noticed this but the secondary text advanced tab has nothing in it on chrome

narrow coyote
#

thinkingOHNO Can you give a screenshot of what you are talking about?

tight harness
#

Also a bit lost

fiery shuttle
weary mist
#

Which widget is this for?

fiery shuttle
#

alert box

weary mist
#

ok, which alert

fiery shuttle
#

sub so far

weary mist
#

ok

fiery shuttle
#

have not seen the others

narrow coyote
#

monka it seems to be working for me

#

Have you tried closing the overlay and reopening it? Maybe check in an incognito window to see if it is the same

fiery shuttle
#

yes ive tried closing it

narrow coyote
#

Was this a new widget, or did you duplicate it from another overlay?

fiery shuttle
#

same thing in incognito

#

duplicated

narrow coyote
#

as a test, if you make a blank overlay, and add a new alert widget to it, do you see the same thing?

fiery shuttle
#

same thing in the original

dusky vessel
#

Is this a bug? I only tested !song while my backup-playlist is playing

fiery shuttle
#

same thing in a new overlay

narrow coyote
#

thinkingOHNO Not sure on that, might need someone who can look into your account check it out to see if they see the same thing on their end, with your stuff

fiery shuttle
#

okay

lapis phoenix
#

So I downloaded the ground control and went to open it and it won’t work.

narrow coyote
#

What is GC doing when you try to launch it?

weary mist
#

@lapis phoenix make sure any antivirus you are using have an exception in place. Some will block/pull out parts

lapis phoenix
#

@narrow coyote it just shows the circle spinning and doesn’t even open

#

@weary mist I’ll try that.

weary mist
#

ooo

#

hit your start button, type %appdata%, open that folder, delete the ground control folder, and reopen the app @lapis phoenix

#

That normally fixes the endless loading circle

lapis phoenix
#

Awesome thank you for the help 😃

Hey, I'm having issues awarding bonus points during my stream. The bot keeps replying with: "there was an error accessing the chatters list"

It seems to be an intermittent thing, but happens more often than not. It also started about 2 weeks ago.
It also doesn't seem to matter if it's me or one of my mods.

elder sorrel
#

It's prob The Twitch thing still being slow

narrow coyote
#

It has to do with the twitch chat list servers, they have been slow or down for about a week

elder sorrel
#

narrow coyote
elder sorrel
#

Not even Milliseconds

#

Seconds monkaS

narrow coyote
#

Once the one that is slow, goes green, everything should run smoothly again

steep narwhal
#

Is there a fix? I have a contest coming up and that is a big part of it.

Or is this just a waiting game?

elder sorrel
#

Waiting unfortunately.

narrow coyote
#

its all on twitch

steep narwhal
#

Ok. Thanks for the help.

narrow coyote
#

@fiery shuttle Just to verify, is it only the alert widget, or do you see this in other widgets? Like in a stream label, or other widget that has text options?

bright tartan

Is there currently any way to group store items into a sub category instead of having just everything on the screen in no order?

junior pine
#

How do I test TTS? I have it enabled, set to 100%, voice selected, no delay, and minimum of 5 but when I click a test alert it does not read the message ogg.

#

Nevermind, maybe. I think the variation settings are overwriting the base settings 😛 Oops

bright tartan
#

That'll do it

dull elm
#

Can I use variable random. User twice in a Account?

narrow coyote
#

I am sorry, but I am not sure of exactly what you are asking. If it is easier for you, you can always ask in German. We have support peeps like @ebon forum and @winter zenith that can help in German 😃 kiwaplKiwi

dull elm
#

Oh thanks

#

Ich wollte wissen ob man den Parameter random.user zwei Mal in einem command einsetzen kann, sodass zufällig zwei Personen genommen werden @winter zenith @ebon forum

ebon forum
#

@dull elm nie probiert, einfach testen 😃

dull elm
#

OK 😊

fiery shuttle
#

@narrow coyote your name makes it hard to reply too. But its only the secondary text that does not have the advanced tab

narrow coyote
#

but do you only see this in alert widget or do you see the same thing in other widgets like a stream label widget?

fiery shuttle
#

what widget in stream label has secondary text?

fierce trench
#

woah henley has 9k

weary mist
#

You were sent this earlier

fierce trench
#

idid

weary mist
#

Then you have to wait

fierce trench
#

but i dont have tipping

weary mist
#

Is there a reason to not use our tipping?

fierce trench
#

?

#

i dont want money tips

weary mist
#

Then you could use a charity paypal address

#

People who watch your stream want to support you in some way. The best and easiest way is through tipping. Even if it goes to someone else, it is worth having

#

There are a ton of charitys that have paypal email addresses you can put on there

#

my favorite is Big Cat Rescue

narrow coyote
#

@fiery shuttle you could use something like latest follower

fiery shuttle
#

so i dunno how else to explain this, the alert box has normal text with an advanced tab and secondary text with an advanced tab.

in stream label there is only the normal text with the advanced tab, which works in both the stream label and the alert box.

weary mist
#

The secondary text in the alert box is like the tip message

narrow coyote
#

Ah, ok, sorry if I confused you

weary mist
#

There is the primary text, which is XXX has Tipped $XX

#

Then the secondary: Here, im throwing my money at you

fiery shuttle
#

yeah bingo

#

so secondary text for me does not have an advanced tab which is like the locational stuff

weary mist
#

OK. couple things to try, as I remember Kite saying he was still able to see his. I recommend trying these out:

fiery shuttle
#

perfect im ready

blissful apex
#

Hey guys could i get a remidner of how to name your chanel bot?

fierce trench
#

any ways to start growing your twitch channel

weary mist
#
  1. Open page in incognito tab, and try it there (no extensions, no cached stuff, etc).
  2. Try in a different browser (FF or chrome).
  3. If neither of those work, check to make sure any firewall/antivirus has an exception for SE.
  4. Send me version information so we can try to diagnose

  • Ground Control app must be running

Steps to enable custom name

  1. Sign in to https://twitch.tv with the bot account
  2. Install and run Ground Control (!gc for download)
  3. Visit https://twitchapps.com/tmi/ and generate an oAUTH token
  4. Copy/paste everything in the box to Ground Control oAuth settings and enter the name for the bot account
  5. Restart Ground Control (custom name may take a few minutes to take effect)

i used IE for testing and i couldnt get SE to load up

weary mist
#

IE is not supported

fiery shuttle
#

what browser then would you recommend

weary mist
#

FF (firefox) or Chrome

blissful apex
#

what acc do i log into twitchapps with my acc or the bot?

quasi raft
#

your account

blissful apex
#

weary mist
#

@blissful apex the bot account. You must be able to log into the account name you want to use

and ground control app can be done on pc right?

weary mist
#

@fierce trench @fierce trench Networking, making friends, don't spam your channel link places unless asked to. Host and hang out with streamers before you stream. Raid after you stream. Join communities, interact, become friends, then give out twich link.

quasi raft
#

yes waffles

fierce trench
#

raid?

weary mist
#

raids bring all your viewers into someones channel. Its much better than a host

blissful apex
#

sure this time @quasi raft Kappa

yup im sure this time lol

I'll hold ya to it! seheart

hybrid owl
#

is there a known problem with hosting and the alertbox?

weary mist
#

@hybrid owl No known issues. If you are not getting host alerts, please make sure to have your activity feed open in either the website or ground control

nocturne pelicanBOT
#

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:

  1. SE Dashboard page - https://streamelements.com/dashboard
  2. SE Activity Feed page - https://streamelements.com/dashboard/activity
  3. Ground Control desktop app - https://streamelements.com/groundcontrol
    Please have one of these open during your stream in order to receive host event notifications.

#

i need some help with overlays where can i get help for it dos anyone know?

hybrid owl
#

now that you're saying it, since i'm not opening streamelements anymore it doesnt pop up anymore thx @weary mist

weary mist
#

@inner sluice you can ask specific questions here. Otherwise we have some youtube videos that explain the basics

fiery shuttle
#

@weary mist can confirm i have the same bug on firefox and chrome

weary mist
#

@fiery shuttle ok. Can you check #3, and throw together #4? Another way to test would be on a completely seperate machine (tablet, laptop, someone elses desktop, etc)

fiery shuttle
#

3 is fine

#

no issues there

#

no idea what 4 is

#

you're going to need to elaborate

weary mist
#

To be able to test if its an incompatability issue, I want to test with the same version of chrome

fiery shuttle
#

so you want version information on chrome?

#

Version 65.0.3325.181 (Official Build) (64-bit)

fringe anvil
#

i need to reset my tip page, it is doubled the amounts of donations.. any help?

narrow coyote
fringe anvil
#

haha i was actualy on that page searching for it

#

a reset or refresh or something..

#

ohhh wait upon opening my eyes firther!

#

Ok another quick one, Top Tipers list in widgets, any way to get that to scroll? or is there another tip list that will scroll?

narrow coyote
#

yeah, that can scroll, one sec while I get you a screenshot

fringe anvil
#

thnk you, i see it was missing in the usal area

blissful apex
#

what do i do once i put the code into ground conrtol

narrow coyote
#

oh snap @fringe anvil sorry I lied to you, I dont think the list can scroll, but let me double check

fringe anvil
#

Thats what i thought Kite, any way to get something to scroll with that info? maybe another tip list i cant seem to find something to scroll and tell me top tippers

narrow coyote
#

I need to verify, but if what is in #297092117933719552 is an indication, it might in the future

fringe anvil
#

An thank you for take the time to check on this, apreash

weary mist
#

@fiery shuttle thanks

narrow coyote
#

how were you wanting it to scroll? like a single line that scrolls, or how the thing in #297092117933719552 looks?

fringe anvil
#

single line

narrow coyote
blissful apex
#

Hey guys, im trying to name my bot.
I have the auth coe for my bot account and out it in the CG app, how do i save it?

narrow coyote
#

ok, yeah unfortunately that does not look it will be possible right now, and I don't think the scrolling teased in #297092117933719552 will address it either. For sure up vote and follow that Idea I shared (I like this idea too).

weary mist
#

Its autosaved once you insert it

#

@blissful apex

fringe anvil
#

I agree Kite, for now a work around, take static list copy and past into Text, and add scroll, sucks we have to update it but hey it works right 😃

#

Thank you for your time

blissful apex
#

@weary mist just insert it and leave it for a bit then close it?

elder pasture
#

so i put a countdown on my brb scene overlay...how would i reset that countdown?

weary mist
#

No, you have to keep ground control open @blissful apex

narrow coyote
#

No problem seheart and nice on the workaround smart I did not even consider that xd

#

@elder pasture the only way to reset it would be to hide and reshow the overlay, transition to another scene and then back, or refresh the overlay

elder pasture
#

i transitioned to another scene and went back, still counting down from the same time

fringe anvil
#

@elder pasture in obs, click propertys of the browser, scroll and refresh, should be last option

narrow coyote
#

Do you have that overlay set to not shutdown when not visible?

fringe anvil
#

^ and that

blissful apex
#

@weary mist do you include the ouath: part

elder pasture
#

ah thanks that did it

narrow coyote
#

Because the countdown will reset when the overlay is not loaded

fringe anvil
#

Sorry lol love to help, be well all, ty again Kite! stop by the stream and hang out see what we did with SE 😃 livefromthemorgue on twitch.

quasi raft
#

you can add your twitch page to your discord profile; we can go straight there if you conenct your twitch account to discord

weary mist
#

@blissful apex yes

narrow coyote
#

@median pierWolf-LiveFromTheMorgue#0851 you should also link your twitch to your discord, easier for use to creep on

blissful apex
#

SO got the code in how do i rename it? @weary mist LUL and i thought i was good with technology

quasi raft
#

you tagged the wrong steve LUL

narrow coyote
#

xd LULW I blame discord, all I did was hit tab

#

well, discord hates me, tried to fix it, and it is just not having it

weary mist
#

I think its the - in the name

narrow coyote
#

yeah, thats what I figured. I even did a right click > mention > copy paste, and still the same

quasi raft
#

#

@median pierWolf-LiveFromTheMorgue#0851 did u see me and kite's message?

#

narrow coyote
#

pingturtle rip steve

quasi raft
#

yo scalper did you check waffles' query?

#

not sure about that either

narrow coyote
#

needs to have the oauth of the twitch account, that is the name you want

#

once you put that in GC, it should work

weary mist
#

@blissful apex So you should just put in the name of the account you got the token from, along with the token, and it should work. Make sure to follow the steps exactly

hey crew sorry for all the hassle today, any chance there is a way to get the kappagen to animate from the top down?

errant drum
#

hello

weary mist
#

@fiery shuttle put it in its own source, and rotate it 180 degrees

#

@errant drum hello, what can we do for you

errant drum
#

i was told i can talk to a support agent here?

ebon forum
#

@errant drum yeah, how can we help you?

errant drum
#

well long story short i need a donation i made to a streamer refunded

weary mist
#

That is not something we can do

#

You need to speak with the streamer for that

errant drum
#

yeah that's the thing

weary mist
#

We do not touch the money

ebon forum
#

@fiery shuttle bounce animation in Kappagen works from top to bottom in standart rotation. Try it 😃

weary mist
#

There is nothing we can do

errant drum
#

i talked to on the of the streamers mods, and he replied that it was a problem on streamelements' end

weary mist
#

lol

errant drum
#

and he told me to contact you guys

weary mist
#

We don't touch any of the money. We just link up the two paypal accounts

ebon forum
#

@errant drum if the money went off from your paypal, then the streamer got it. We do not touch it.

weary mist
#

So its between you, the streamer, and paypal

errant drum
#

alright

narrow coyote
#

sounds like the streamer just does not want to offer a refund. They can easily do this from their PayPal account

errant drum
#

its sodapoppin

#

i doubt he would ever see any of my pm's so i asked a mod of his to tell him directly

normal igloo
#

sodapoppin trumpW

#

This is a unique scenario. @errant drum please message @proud pumice about this.

errant drum
#

okay

#

neither Latest cheer or Monthly top cheer are Working for me On my overlay FeelsChromosomeMan

narrow coyote
#

yeah, was seeing if you bot was woke with a new name

blissful apex
#

i think ive done it wrong

#

btw i was skeptical at first, but stream elements is the best seheart

I have the app runing i have the code, what do i enetr into the JWD

upper steeple
#

in #command-share for the tweet command, where is has the other parameters below it. How exactly do you add those to the command for it to work?

narrow coyote
#

the JWT comes from your SE account, as that is how GC links to your account

#

from SE dashboard, click your profile pic > settings > show secrets

blissful apex
#

so i need auoth code from bot with its name and the code of my SE ?

#

omg

weary mist
#

@upper steeple Let me look that up for you, ill DM you

narrow coyote
#

yes

blissful apex
#

im so retarded tonight guys!!

fiery shuttle
#

alright ill try it, any chance we can randomize the image rotator?

upper steeple
#

@weary mist 👌

blissful apex
#

I would liek to formally apologise for not been able to figure that out xD I got it sorted. ignore the 4HEad

weary mist
#

@fiery shuttle I don't think that is currently an option

#

@normal igloo apologize for the delay, I will check it out now

blissful apex
#

ok @narrow coyote i think i did it?

normal igloo
#

@weary mist No problem You guys always serve good Support PagChomp

#

@normal igloo which overlay do I look at (the name you called it in your overlays section)

normal igloo
#

NEW12 - EVOLUTION IN GAME STATIC

#

@weary mist

#

I can change the name with ustome bot name, or on twitch?

narrow coyote
#

its all tied to the twitch account you get the oauth from

#

@weary mist thank you PagChomp

#

@stuck hamlet well, we're back to it not working I don't know what it is, it worked yesterday, now it's not working again. I think it has to do with web socket connections, but I can't figure out how to make it so firefox and chrome allow it. I tried to close the antivirus, open the firewall, nothing.

blissful apex
#

Wait, am i gonna have to sub to my own channel aswell xD

narrow coyote
#

if you want your bot to have your emotes, yes, you will need to gift the bot a sub

#

if you are partner, then the bot sub is free

blissful apex
#

oh thats cool, i'm not, yet 😛

#

You can use channel emotes in commands aswell?

narrow coyote
#

yeah, as long as the bot account has access to the emotes, you can use it

#

otherwise it will just show the text

blissful apex
#

Awesome

#

I've been told not to say thank you too much, but, thank you xD

@storm pier That is a known problem with the new Media Request system. GC does not have full support with the new system at this time. GC is being completely rewritten and will have full support for the new Media Request system.... soon™

#

i need help with the media share with i have an echo on both ends

narrow coyote
#

Do you by chance have the media request page open, and ground control open when the song request enabled?

dusty veldt
#

i ahve it set up to show the video and play the song but i am hearing it twice

#

ok i am new to the media share , were do find the ground control

narrow coyote
#

ground control is the desktop app

dusty veldt
#

that will take out the echo ?

narrow coyote
#

if you hear audio twice, and you have it set to show on stream, then maybe you have the media share widget in more than one overlay, and one of these browser sources is not set to shutdown when not visible

dusty veldt
#

ok i just added it to one scene , so i have to make another scene with the widget for it to get rid of the echo ?

narrow coyote
#

well, if you have media request set to show on stream, then the audio should only be coming from the media share widget from an overlay. So if you have more than one overlay with the widget active, or if you have the overlay open in a web browser or overlay editor, that will cause an echo

dusty veldt
#

when i close the media share it shuts off my music

narrow coyote
#

yeah, you need to have the media request page open, or ground control open for the media to actually play. If you are using the show on stream option, there has to be another source that the echo is coming from.

#

this would be a duplicate media share widget on your active overlay, another overlay in another scene that is not shutdown and has the widget, the overlay is open in your web browser, or the overlay is open in the overlay editor

normal igloo
#

Is there a way of turning off the vid on mediarequest?

dusty veldt
#

i tried that but it dont work

narrow coyote
#

no, you cant disable the video, but what I like to do is set youtube quality to 144p (this can be done on any video) and this setting carries over to the media request

dusty veldt
#

ok i ma lost , sorry

narrow coyote
#

ok, lets take a few steps back. When you hear the echo, are you using the show on stream option, and if you dont use the show on stream option, do you hear the echo?

dusty veldt
#

when i dont use the show on stream i have no echo , but when i do i have the echo

#

sorry i am new to streamelements and i am trying to convert over from night bot and streamlabs

narrow coyote
#

Ok, in that case, there has to be more than one active media share widget somewhere. When you are testing this, do you have the overlay open in the overlay editor, as well as OBS open with the scene active that has the widget? If you have OBS open, if you change to a scene without an overlay with the widget, do you still hear the media?

dusty veldt
#

yes i do

#

but i only have the widget on one overlay i just checked

#

could it be night bot conflicting with strealelements

narrow coyote
#

what was the yes i do in regard to, I kind of threw a lot at you at once xd

dusty veldt
#

ok i closed the overlay editor and just left the my obs and the media share opend and i still have an echo , and my viewers are still hearing it twice as well

sleek quartz
#

Can someone help me with the media sharing with the music

narrow coyote
#

do you have a scene in OBS that you can switch to that does not have the widget in it? If you still hear the echo that would mean there has to be an active overlay with the widget in it. The only way this should have an echo would be multiple active widgets for media request

sleek quartz
#

OK thx

dusty veldt
#

i have switched to different scenes and i dont have an echo

narrow coyote
#

but do you still hear the media? because that would mean that your current source is shutting down as expected, and there is an active source else where

#

@sleek quartz that was in response to something else, what did you need help with?

sleek quartz
#

I can't stream my music on my stream

dusty veldt
#

yes it shuts off when i switch to another scene . it only happens when i go the the scene that has the widget on it

narrow coyote
#

@sleek quartz need more details than that, are you having problems using Media Request, or are you trying to do something else?

sleek quartz
#

@gray birch What are you struggling with?

isnt their a way to do it in the dashboard of stream elementts?

@nimble zinc Sure, you can go to Leaderboard and do it that way for giving points to an individual

@tight harness how do I get my overlay to my stream. I stream from my ps4 and it is in my room but my computer (for now) is downstairs can I still use the overlays?

nimble zinc
#

thank you Sean!!

tight harness
#

You'd need to use a capture card to get your overlays and your ps4 gameplay onto your stream

#

Which I suspect means they need to be close to each other

otayyyy thanks

ok so i feel like kind of an idiot about to ask this question. when it comes to the webcam i'm assuming i have to add that source in OBS and then make it fit into any overlay that i may have?

@misty wagon Coffee man, I need some help

near heath
#

do i have to have it "show on stream" if i don't want the video actually shown and i just want the music played?

narrow coyote
#

for media request? by default your stream will only hear music, the show on stream will show it in your overlay if it has the media share widget

#

ok thank you

Hi there, I have all of my alerts setup in multiple overlays. They show inside the UI that lets me edit them, but when I click to have an alert happen on stream/inside my broadcasting software only bit alerts show. Are there any known problems going on?

#

I tried setting up a new alert box and tested a follow alert and it still didn't work.

weary mist
#

@stray venture what broadcasting software are you using?

stray venture
#

Xsplit broadcaster

weary mist
#

There is an issue with the most recent version of Xsplit, you will need to roll back

stray venture
#

Oh I see. Do you know which version?

weary mist
#

No, not off hand

#

I think 3.2 is fine?

stray venture
#

Awesome. I'll check. Thanks for the heads up 😄

#

Glad to know it wasn't something I did LOL

narrow coyote
#

you might also want to contact xsplit support, so they can collect any useful information they might want to help them fix the problem

stray venture
#

I can totally do that. Thanks for the suggestion.

narrow coyote
#

Like We have had a few people contact them already

stray venture
#

I can imagine. Its definitely not good haha

dry hare
#

You could use the PTR version

dusty veldt
#

so i still havent got my media play to stop echo @narrow coyote

nocturne pelicanBOT
#

@dusty veldt 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

pine hemlock
#

Can you be more specific? Where cant you see things?

You can change the size of the text etc in the overlay editor

#

If you want stuff to be larger like that you would have to do it that way... but.. the premade overlays are designed to be pretty normal sized(?)

#

Are you talking about on obs? because you can scale the preview to be larger.

narrow coyote
#

@dusty veldt I was asking around about this, and the only thing that should cause an echo with the show on stream is having more than 1 active media share widget. That has also been the only way I have reproduced this in testing. As a test, can you make a new blank overlay, and only put the media share in this overlay. Then in OBS make a new test scene and add this as a browser source. Before testing this make sure that you have made sure all of your other browser sources in the other scenes are set so they shutdown when not visible

pine hemlock
#

@dapper trellis Create another overlay, copy the alertbox widget over to replace it

dusty veldt
#

@narrow coyote i have looked and i only have one mida share widget , you can look if oyu want

#

Could I have some help regarding a timer in the overlay, please?

toxic zodiac
#

hey guys. setting up my overlay and finding when i change scenes i'm getting a good few seconds of black screen while it changes. anyway to fix this?

lunar dock
#

@toxic zodiac That can't be avoided because it has to load the overlay. If you use "Studio Mode" in OBS you'll be able to seamlessly transition your scenes without the black screen showing up on stream. You'll be able to see everything load, but wait until it finishes and hit "Transition"

dry hare
#

You can use studio mode to avoid that

#

It works. Not ideal, but it works

lunar dock
#

I believe you have to enable the setting "Swap Preview/Output scenes after transitioning"

dry hare
#

!multi

nocturne pelicanBOT

@narrow coyote Could I have some help real quick? 😄

toxic zodiac

cheers

lunar dock
#

@toxic zodiac Have fun!

narrow coyote
#

whats up?

lunar dock
#

So for a timer on my overlay to count down to when I start streaming, it only shows the completion message and not the countdown. If I disable the completion message, the timer pops up again. I was just wondering what I am doing wrong since it is not counting down and then, upon reaching 0, triggering the completion message.

#

Wait

#

Ok. For some reason it's working now. Sorry about that

narrow coyote
#

How long is the timer? The timer should be counting down as soon as the overlay with the widget becomes active

lunar dock
#

Not sure what I did to fix it.

#

The timer was for 10 minutes

#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

narrow coyote
#

if you hide, and show, reload, or transition to a different scene the timer should reset

#

so maybe the scene was open for a while

lunar dock
#

Yes, that's what I usually do, but for some reason it didn't work several times. I may have left "Count to exact time" unchecked accidently after changing settings for the timer

#

Anyway, thanks for being here 😄

Morning everyone. I have a question. How can i get points?

narrow coyote
#

there are chat commands, or you can add points from the loyalty page. In chat you can use !bonus username/all 1234 I would like to note that Twitch has been having issues with their chatter list server, so you may have some issues with the command, until Twitch sorts themselves out

dull elm
#

I thought the command was !addpoints

narrow coyote
#

!bonus is an alias for addpoints, does the same thing with less letters

#

Is that what you are looking for, or were you looking for something else?

#

alright so maybe a harder question for all of you

#

I am mostly a rocksmith streamer so song requests and guitar tunings are an important part of the stream

#

could I set up a command that let's people know what tuning I am in...and mods could change for me

#

!tuning

#

output : E Standard

inner sluice
#

i want to put overlays on my stream but i dont know how to active them i have them set up i think but dont know how to get them on my stream i do not have a pc i have a mac do i need and proper pc to do it or to download something else on SE

weary mist
#

@gentle tiger yes

#

@inner sluice you could use the broadcasting software OBS for mac

gentle tiger
#

which command template or variation would be appropriate

#

I would like mods to be able to change output so !changetuning new !tuning Output: D Standard

weary mist
#

Here is how you will have to do it

#

First, add a command called tune !cmd add tune E Standard

#

Then, when ever you change, it would be like this: !cmd edit tune A Standard

fierce violet
#

how do i use the twitch overlay for my stream?

weary mist
#

@fierce violet you add a browser source to a broadcasting software

#

Like OBS or xsplit

inner sluice
#

do you have to dowload obs is so where from

#

do i just type it into google or something

weary mist
#

Yes

gentle tiger
#

so command is !tuning

#

response is E Standard

#

got it

#

thanks!

hollow goblet
#

everything works noice for making my custom overlay but i'm running into problems with alerts where the last line of secondary text is cut off from the bottom and after testing and tuning i apparently cant figure out why

weary mist
#

@hollow goblet have you tried increasing the size of the alert box to compensate for that long getting cut off

hollow goblet
#

yeah, that's one of the first things i tried, it's really weird, no matter how big i make it it's always cut off

#

example just in case

#

i havent tried in an actual stream so i dont have confirmation that it looks better there

hollow goblet
#

i've decreased the size of the text and the line height and it doesnt cut anymore. not sure if i'd be able to read it mid stream, but there's some kind of limit there. thank you for your help!

#

@lusty yacht what would you like to have instead of Youtube Playlist 😃

lusty yacht
#

No idea to be honest, just not the eerie silence of broken lists since the perfect playlist doesn’t exist it seems. Spotify or pandora would be cool. No idea on the technical side

winter zenith
#

We tried working with spotify but they are very protective of there API, we will keep trying but it will might take awhile seanK

#

in the old Media Request broken videos where skipped, I will ask the Dev's if this is a bug or intentional for some reason thanks for letting us know seheart

lusty yacht
#

I had no idea it use to do that. Was there a default time before it skipped? I always alt tab or use my phone to skip

Okay so it should Skip in the future, the Media Request thing got reworked recently so the approach to stuff has to be a bit different too but it will be possible in the future! seheart

#

What was the command they were typing in chat to try and buy them?

#

Either !ticket <number> or !enter <number> should work

gentle imp
#

you have to enable the option for viewers to buy tickets from chat

#

That's true, you may have the command disabled

gentle imp

I use giveaways on all my streams but must check that option 😃

#

Yep 😃

gentle imp
peak crag

it was !tickets, at least that's what it said in my chat

It's called !enter in the list, !ticket is an alias for it

#

what.. you have to go down there.. xD omg that isn't made clear hehehehheeeh

#

after setting those up, go to ur channel and do a test giveaway, see if all is working

You can use the variable ${sender}

old thistle
#

Am i blind or is there no shuffle button for my backup playlist?

narrow coyote
#

your command could be !hi and the response would be something like Hi ${sender}, how you doing today?

#

@old thistle you are not blind, the shuffle functionality is not there currently, but should be back soon™

old thistle
#

@narrow coyote ohh alright, thank you

#

do you know if there is a timer that counts up instead of down in the overlay section?

#

asked here before but didn't get a response x)

narrow coyote
old thistle
#

I see, thanks yet again ❤

narrow coyote
#

no problem seheart

lament blade
#

sorry for writting my question in #welcome

#

I was wondering if I can add a command which can pick 4 random words from a list instead of just one word

narrow coyote
#

not sure, but it might be possible, let me test something quick

#

@lament blade ok, so not sure if this will be exactly what you are looking for, but should work, unless someone else has a better way

#

I made a command that was !multitest and the response was ${random.pick '1' '2' '3' '4'} ${random.pick 'a' 'b' 'c' 'd'} ${random.pick '5' '6' '7' '8'} ${random.pick 'q' 'w' 'e' 'r'}

#

so the command will pick a random selection from each random pick var, and look like

#

Is there a widget that shows all new notifications? Like the ground control does.

quasi raft
#

i think this is what you're looking for?

ivory terrace
#

quasi raft
#

oh mb

How do i set my bot up to stop people psoying link and give the a 2 seconds ban?

narrow coyote
#

You can use the Spam Filters, this will time them out if they post a link

ebon forum

exclude subs if you wish.

hey.. When i try to test my alerts, I have 4 scenes and they all play on each scene, 4 different overlays, I can't seems to get them just play on the active scene and they all seems to have different sounds and I want them to all have the same sounbd what am i doing wrong?

ebon forum
#

@lament blade you are on OBS Studio? If yes, when you import the browser source (1x per scene) put in the resolution (1920x1080) and check the "shutdown when not visible" option below. This will shut down overlays on other scenes

#

@lament blade so only your active scene will have an active overlay

proper garden
lament blade
#

thank you so much, now one more question if you dont mid?

#

Is there are way to get all my sounds that i have on this one overlay copied over to the other one, for alerts? or do I have to do that all man ually

narrow coyote
#

you can clone the alert widget from one overlay to the other

#

one sec, getting screenshot

lament blade
#

oh I see the optiong

#

no need

#

thank you so much

#

narrow coyote
lament blade
#

can I do the same thing with just the video

narrow coyote
#

You can only duplicate the entire widget

lament blade
#

Hello, guys. I have a question. I changed my Twitch username and now I can't change the twitch username in StreamElements. Tried to download the GroundControl, but it shows an error (*Maybe because I'm on 32 bit). Is there anything else that I could try? Thanks in advance 😃

#

ok thanks ! 😄

narrow coyote
#

Log out of StreamElements, and log back in, this will have SE grab the new Twitch name. After this you will want to part the bot from your channel, and rejoin it

lament blade
#

Thanks. Tried this, can you please tell me how to remove it from the channel and make it join again. It currently doesn't show up to be online.

narrow coyote
lament blade

Thank you very much! I spent hours trying to change tokens, lol xD You are a life saver! ☺

No problem! seheart

inland knoll
#

hey there - there is a variable in the Cheer alert setting called {message} where can I find this vatiable to change the options

limpid tree
#

Yo i'm having a huge problem

#

i'm trying to have song requests on my stream while having the video shown. But every time a new song starts it plays it twise with a 3 second delay so everything sounds fucked :/

narrow coyote
#

@inland knoll What are you trying to do? There are no options for variables, and for the alert widget there should be an option to show the message, and in the chat alert module this supports {msg} variable

proper garden
narrow coyote
#

@limpid tree the only way you should hear an echo is if you have more than one overlay active that has the media share widget

lament blade
#

does sound on alerts not transfer over when i duplicate to another overlay?

limpid tree
#

But i don't tho, i open OBS, and then i open Ground control.. but as soon as i hit the "Show on stream" button it plays the song twise with a delay

#

i do NOT have the eco when i don't press the show on stream button

narrow coyote
#

as a test, can you try from the media request page instead of ground control, to see if this makes a difference?

limpid tree
#

already tried it, same result with ground control closed

#

i'm not coming here if i really haven't tried everything in my power 😛

lament blade
#

anyone know for me? If sound transfers when i duplicate the alert box layer, or do i have to do that for each overlay?

limpid tree
#

Before the update on the music request thing everything worked for me.

#

@lament blade it worked for me. so it should work for you too

narrow coyote
#

well, the only way I have been able to reproduce the behavior of an echo is if there is more than one active overlay with the media share widget. As a test, can you make a new overlay, add just the media share widget, and see if you still get the echo?

lament blade
#

It's not for some reason, I'll keep trying though

limpid tree
#

hmm wait

narrow coyote
#

What browser are you using @lament blade

limpid tree
#

i might know the reason.

lament blade
#

chrome

limpid tree
#

I made two overlays, one for the game and one for IRL.. and added the widget on both..

#

that MIGHT have caused the issue?

#

FUCK YES

#

THAT IS THE ISSUE

#

sorry for swearing

atomic silo
#

hello, i came for help, can anyone help me here with a quick question?

limpid tree
#

i need to try to remove it from one of them

narrow coyote
#

xd Yeah, if you have more than one overlay, and the browser source is not set to shutdown when not visible, that will cause an echo

limpid tree
#

haha thanks kite

#

you opened my eyes 😄

narrow coyote
#

@atomic silo best to start with the question

lament blade
#

Nevermind I figured it out lol, thanks anyways

#

had multiple alertboxes by accident zz 😛

limpid tree
#

haha this must be a common problem for the staff here

atomic silo
#

sry, my question is: why the chat stats doesn't feature BTTV emotes and FFZ emotes? It only counts the ones my bot used. Top chatters only counts the ones above 60 messages which is 5 people for me. Some ffz emotes are not featured, and BTTV gif emotes doesnt feature.

Hi there, I am very new to streaming. I have a quick question, in order for streamelements to do stuff in my channel, do I have to be streaming actively? or can I test it without being live?

You can test things without being live

Last couple of weeks, when someone raids / hosts my channel, I get the SE alert, but the automated shout-out in chat does not seem to want to work? Any suggestions...I know awhile ago Raids / hosts kind of borked the system but had hoped that was fixed now.

narrow coyote
#

@pale meteor that means you used the oauth from your twitch account. You need to make another twitch account that will be the name you want the bot, and use the oauth from that account in ground control

pale meteor

I understand now

@narrow coyote oh you but thx 😃

south tundra
#

I would like some help please!
So i had this weird thing going for a while where my Cheers (and only my cheers) would play double if not triple when going through. I have different alerts for my home screen and different alerts for my game screen.
I guess they play on both scenes for some reason?

The only solution i found was to check the "shutdown source when not visible" on the obs settings for the browser on both my game and home screen. That fixed the double cheers issue on my game screen.

However now when i switch to my home screen there is a 3 second delay before the overlay shows.

So i guess my question is how do i stop the double cheering on two different scenes without delaying either overlay?

narrow coyote
#

this is how the browser sources work. If you dont have an overlay shutdown when not visible, and it is not visible, it is still active in the background. The delay is from the browser source having to load. There are a few things that you can do that try and mitigate this problem.

#

one is using studio mode to do your transitions. This will preload your scene before you transition

#

!studiomode

nocturne pelicanBOT
narrow coyote
#

Another way you can deal with it, is have more than one browser source (if you pc can handle it)

foggy dust
#

thank god i needed this info so bad im about to start my first stream using these overlays

narrow coyote
#

you would have one overlay that is your images, and text, things that dont make sound. This can be set so it does not shutdown when not visible. You would then have a second overlay for your noisemakers, and this one would be set to shutdown when not visible. This way, you wont have to worry about the loading of the images/text, and you wont have to worry about the multi audio

#

@south tundra ⤴ left a few comments for you xd

#

also, there might be more ways to handle this better in the future BulbaSmirk

foggy dust
#

theres so many settings to go through this is insane

narrow coyote
#

There is a lot to it, but its worth, there are some really good getting started videos if you have not checked them out yet.

foggy dust

yeah this has been a huge learning process the last two hours since i found this

amber notch
#

I got hosted but my chat alert for hosts didn't do anything even though its on? not sure what's wrong or how to fix

nocturne pelicanBOT
#

@amber notch
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:

  1. SE Dashboard page - https://streamelements.com/dashboard
  2. SE Activity Feed page - https://streamelements.com/dashboard/activity
  3. Ground Control desktop app - https://streamelements.com/groundcontrol
    Please have one of these open during your stream in order to receive host event notifications.
amber notch
#

I keep those open and the host notification shows on stream alright, but nothing happens with the chat alert bot

steep narwhal
#

@amber notch i have the same problem with hosts, even though i get notifications for subs/followers. All settings are turned on, they just don't show up.

narrow coyote
#

I am not in a position to test this, but I am asking around about it

amber notch
#

thank you @narrow coyote

Evening guys i'm back with another query :D
How does one link the SE bot to a discord? seheart

narrow coyote
blissful apex
#

ah kk 😃

#

Can you link twitch to discord for emotes and notfications

narrow coyote
#

depends on what you are looking for. You can link your twitch to your discord to get emoji for channels you are subbed to, example seanPog bogaLUL brkGazm as for notifications, i think there are some bots that are out there, that you could use for now to alert your discord when someone subs or follows

blissful apex
#

i meant alets for when i go alive. NO worries it's nice to have everything in one place 😛

narrow coyote
#

oh yeah

#

plenty of bots that do that

#

I personally use mee6 bot in my discord for that, as I use it for other features as well

Hi, I'm having troubles with cheer alerts

plain locust
#

so for stream elements leaderboards extension, do we have a way to remove stream elements from things like top chatters

dense jackal
#

I don't believe so at this time, but we are doing some big really cool changes to it very soon 😃 @plain locust

elfin flame
#

Basically, i can't change the image. It doesn't matter what i choose, it always displays that dancing shark.

dense jackal
#

Check your cheer alert variations

#

It's most likely playing those @elfin flame

elfin flame
#

I've already done it

#

I even tryed to create 1 variation for at least 1 bit

#

<@&382267076632379392>

dense jackal
#

When you make a new alertbox do you have the same issue @elfin flame

elfin flame
#

You mean another alert or another widget?

#

Because i had no problem changing other stuff, just the cheers that are having issues

dense jackal
#

Another alertbox widget altogether, for testing purposes, cheers seem to be working fine when I just tested them

elfin flame
#

Ok.

#

The sounds are changing, just the image that is not

dense jackal
#

🤔 on the new alertbox you aren't hearing the default sound?

#

and seeing the normal bit?

elfin flame
#

Well, it worked with another widget

#

I'll just put it above the other

#

And unmatch the cheer function of the bugged one :v

dense jackal
#

I'd have to get into your account to check, maybe some weird box is checked or something, that should work from now on tho seheart

Hey guys, I'm adding a sub goal widget to an overlay, and it's displaying a number of "current" subs for my channel that is way higher than my actual subs

Any idea why that could happen? Something on my end I can adjust?

ooooh wait

#

I think I can fix it 😃

Haha, yes. The sub goal widget counts the number subs that happen, not your current sub total

So, padding for the secondary text on the subs, cheer and tip alertbox does not work or it's bugged since I can't find the option, and I'm using Chrome this time (because I had the same issue with this but I was using Firefox and it was solved when I changed to Chrome)

I absolutely love getting my stream elements email after every stream of twitch, but as we all know, the revenue from subs in only half, so it's a little misleading when it says I made $25 from 5 subs, and it's really only $12.50. Anyway to get that algorithm to cut the subs $$ in half?

stuck hamlet
#

@indigo summit Different streamers have different splits, so we can't just divide by half, and we dont have access to that information. so we are pushed to put the full 5$

#

@mighty hamlet Which padding bug?

indigo summit
#

damn, also i didnt realize there were different splits, i guess i'm not in the "upper echelons" lol

#

ok thanks, I guess I just have to keep doing maths (sic)
