No, !skip is to skip it as a mod.

Ground Control Help ples
what do you need help with?
@narrow coyote I'm using both Roulette Slot machine But they do not tell my users How long the cooldown is for them 
double click it to hightlight the text
then copy paste
@normal igloo
I will have to look into it a bit, I never pay attention to cool downs 
@narrow coyote Ok thanks Also might be worth Looking into The last few messages in #welcome 👍
when i use the chat widget in the overlay, it looks like it works fine in the preview, but in obs no messages appear.
what browser are you using, I can copy paste the jwt fine
with both ctrl+c and right click > copy
Chrome. I cant paste into GC download
click in the box and press ctrl v to paste
If only I'd thought of that
hi guys o// If a item its sold out in the store, how do i replenish it?
Change it to a different number then set it back to it's original fully stocked number
oh ok! Thank you as always @tight harness
No problem 😃
when i use the chat widget in the overlay, it looks like it works fine in the preview, but in obs no messages appear. how can i get this to work the way it is intended?
What resolution are you setting it to? try 1080p
Hey all, my overlay widgets aren't updating for most recent sub and or donations
any ideas?
Hope everyone is having a good Tuesday btw 😃
You're still using Streamlabs for your donations, that's why you still aren't getting recent donations data coming through, you'd have to use your StreamElements tipping link for that
what about the subscribers then - same issue?
In terms of recent subs, make sure they're sharing the sub through the 'Share' button at the top of their Twitch chat 😃
doesn't the Chrome plugin allow Streamlabs data to be brought into stream elements?
No
it is a 1 time import @granite dock of donation list, and alertbox
It's imported, not linked
ok thanks @dense jackal, thanks @tight harness
No problem 😃
where do i enable the streamelements tipping
When you've got that set up you just click on Open My Page, copy the URL and put that in your panels instead
Do we have any retro themes in the list?
Violet Momentum
Good! it will work well with Radical heights then 😮
I think it should, it is pretty 80's style, should fit nicely
your twitch panels
Those rectangle things below your stream 😄
so even though i have a streamelements overlay and widget
i need to put the url in twitch panels
to get the data to pull through?
They can't click on your overlay or widget, so yes
If they're still clicking on the wrong link it's going to take them to the wrong page
So you need to put the right link
ok thanks, will try again
i've done that, still not pulling in donations?
or will it only work for future donations?
It will be for future donations made through that link
1080p worked, actually. it was at 540p before because that's what i stream at. thank you.
Hey guys, specially @gentle imp
I talked to the guys on the obs discord and they basically told me this
Running a game without vertical sync or a frame rate limiter will frequently cause performance issues with OBS because your GPU will be maxed out. Enable vsync or set a reasonable frame rate limit that your GPU can handle without hitting 100% usage. If that's not enough you may also need to turn down some of the video quality options in the game.
So, basically, limiting the fps is the way to go.
Hey, what settings do you have to go into to get the bits event thing to show up when someone donates?
(I’m not the one using it, my friend is and it doesn’t show up on the stream when someone donates)
They donated bits and it didn’t show up
Apparently following shows up but cheers doesn’t.
If anyone could help @ me whenever you reply.
@vale wyvern Yep. Limiting frames helps a lot
@vale wyvern You can use RivaTuner to limit frames on any application/game that doesnt support vsync or what not as well
@lament bladegJaws#5481 Overlay Editor -> Alertbox -> Cheer alert needs to be checked
I love discord.
She said it is
And it’s still not showing up
Everything else shows up, donations, followers
Just not cheers
Did she recently get affiliate/partner
Did the person who cheered cheer with the new bday bit
Nope. The salt
Whats the channel name? We can have someone look into it.. is it just this one time or is it every cheer?
The person donated twice
She said when she does a fake cheer it works
Is it okay if I do say the channel name?
Do the cheers show up in her activity feed or no
Yeah give me the channel name and ill get someone to look into it
TurtleBeverage is her name
Yeah. She’s said that everything seems to be correct. Followers, donations, everything works even the fake cheer (to test it) but when someone actually donated it didn’t do anything
She’s using streamlabs for the bits thing right now
@narrow coyote Any updates for me Buddy?
sorry, not yet, when I was testing it I learned that mods ignore the cool down, so I need to test it again
Interesting That explains how my mods abuse it then 
Unless, you want to slide into my chat quick and throw a bunch of !slots in there and we can see what it does
@arctic hornet she does not have it checked like @pine hemlock said at the beginning
Well she did just switch the cheering to StreamLabs OBS?
That may be it’s now showing it isn’t checked.. though she did they had it checked.
I believe @tight harness Just turned them on
@narrow coyote Interesting so it seems to have a Cooldown for People who are not mod But gives no indication of how long they had to wait 🤔
She’s telling me it’s checked..
it is now
O.o
It wasn't checked when I saw it
Hm. Okay.
I’ll just have her come in here and explain. Cause it’s kinda hard to explain hah
yea, relay support isnt the best.
Cause shes telling me she’s been turning it on and off constantly to try and get it
same someone donate bits now 
Yeah. I’ll just have her come in here and explain
Thank you guys, though. Honestly
@normal igloo Yeah, I am not sure if that is expected or not, looking for answers on that
@narrow coyote Ok thanks buddy 👍

Sorry for the whispering 😂
asmr stream
np 
can a staff help me in voice im having issues with alter sounds
@pine hemlock still didnt help. today i tried streaming again and even vsync didnt help
I guess my gpu is dying
It wasn't like this before, it's the only option
Try disabling certain elements of your overlay.. if you have scrolling text, try making it static
if you have the hype cup, try disabling it
etc
Thanks for helping cuda btw 😃
np
i disabled everything animated, nothing moves except the alerts
what gpu is it
And you are using x264 encoding, right?
hi :3 is there way to put a link in a chat command/timer using like html tags or something so it's not the full link but just and underlined word you can click on to follow the link?
not possible, twitch doesnt support it
@vale wyvern Have you tried rolling back obs to previous versions, if it worked prior?
@pine hemlock oki thanks ^-^
@vale wyvern Are you using OBS? A log from the stream will show what dropped frames, if it was OBS dropping frames
is there any way to add the response from a bot? when someone redeems something in the shop he answers twice and its quite annoying 
edit*
One of the responses is probably from the Chat Alerts module @lament blade. you can turn that off. The other one is the default response, which isn't editable right now, and is not able to be turned off
he only does it on one command. the others are only one message 😫
that is normal for the store if you have chat alerts on
yes, I use obs. maybe its the version, yes
ok I found the failure. it was on perks but it doesnt do it on sound 
where can i get the stream log?
help -> log files
Change your downscale filter to bilinear (under video)
Also do you have your browser sources set to shutdown when not active?
no it doesnt make a real difference
it uses additonal resources for nothing noticable
a lot of your frames are dropped from connection rather than rendering
22:32:01.470: Output 'adv_stream': Number of dropped frames due to insufficient bandwidth/connection stalls: 8029 (3.5%)```
the change to bilinear may help the render thing
but twitch shows its stable
Are you on wireless by chance or something
nope
I would try using a different twitch server maybe
because most of your frames are from internet
what bitrate are you running now?
and what is your upload?
so you "should" be good with around 4-5k bitrate, easy
Yeah, I would try changing the server, otherwise its an issue I experience too much
my upload is about 4mbps, but inconsistant. I get spikes of higher, and dips of 0. big fat zeros
Is there any reason that kappagen would make OBS go from using 3-5% CPU to using 15-20%. if I disable it in OBS all is good, as soon as I re-enable it my usage goes way up again.
how do i change the server
@dense plinth 100%
yes
Kappagen causes a lot of rendering needing to be done, and the only thing that can do it in OBS is your CPU. To help reduce this drain, we recommend reducing the pixel size of the emotes, reducing the number of emotes, not making it full screen, and other things similar to that
I have kappagen on a separate browser source tied to my stream deck so I can disable it when needed
@weary mist I will give that a try
👍
the thing is that
apparently the connection is excellent??
i dont get it honestly
upload the latest log again
(downscale filter is still the same btw)
this log doesnt say you tried to go live yet tho
so i cant see
might not be the right log file 
After removing a Super Moderator, they seem to still have access. does it take time to update?
unsure
@weary mist Thank you for the info, I just knocked the pixel size down from 100 to 75. and unchecked the "use full screen" and it dropped it down to about 5% CPU usage. You are a rock star
I would just try some more servers and see @vale wyvern ... also do you have any firewalls, antivirus or anything that could be interfering?
@exotic zephyr Should be instant... what do they have access to?
oh i guess we also have to remove them in settings!
i was only in the "user management"
Yeah user management is just the bot, settings is the dashboard
where do i switch servers tho
File -> settings -> stream
the weird thing is that it only gets laggy while im on fights
when im talking and on spawn its totally fine
thats why its just confusing to see its the network
more data gets sent when lots of things are occuring
Try changing that downscale filter thing i told you about and see if it stops
that can also send more data
im getting less dropped frames on the obs app, down there
but its stilll weird, will try and check other servers
Sounds good. Everything else looks fine from what i can see, though. As long as you change the downscale filter to bilinear.
👍
(still says its on lanczos) =p
whaat but
reopen obs and test it again and lets see
try setting your stream fps to 48 instead of 60
Article "Disabling Xbox DVR in Windows 10"
Because its enabled on your pc
(disabling it might require a pc restart)
tried doing with48 fps didnt help, disabling this now
never enabled it tho, never even had an xbox live account
windows pisses me off so much
its auto on for everyone
South America: Sao Paulo, Brazil
rtmp://live-sao.twitch.tv/app/{stream_key}
its where its at i believe
Try an older obs version, and maybe try restarting your router and see if you have any luck
i will, thanks for the patience
np
ok, definitely it was the internet. I just tried streaming again, 0 frame losses on lagging and encoding, all of them to network
gonna try and fix my internet because it seems to be the problem, none of my friends are having issues with the server
@vale wyvern goodluck
thanks a lot <3
Contests do not seem to be working... people are betting and the system is not taking bets? https://i.imgur.com/LCjJjWQ.png
Why are you promoting here?
it's said to not promote your own channel in all places other than sellout. And that bot is currently down
Oh the bot is down?
yes, that bot is currently IP banned from discord altogether
oohh THAT bot
@untold estuary Have you checked the settings of the !bet command?
I mean I did bets the other night
No issues
Nothing else configured
Copied the same one from last time
Do you see bets being placed on the contest page?
No
Ok, just a moment
Fixed on stream
For the record, !bet was added as an alias of !contest so the bot was only responding to !contest and not accepting the actual !bet
is there any way to get gift sub information (that a sub was a gift and who gifted it) in the chat alerts?
I had an issue today where someone subbed and the overlay KNEW they subbed as the counter went up but the event tracker never showed it. Any ideas? ( There are no pending actions for me to accept or deny as that is turned off )
edit : the alert box did not pick it up either - I can successfully emulate each alert on site.
edit 2: It was a twitch prime sub
edit 3: says there was no 'share' button after refreshing the page several time * using firefox *
Not at this time @dawn wasp. We may look to add that in the future along with a prime sub variation.
@rugged trench Twitch prime (new and resub) and paid subscriptions (resub only) must be shared in chat manually by the person subscribing in order for the subscription information to be sent to StreamElements. For twitch prime, the user needs to have sharing enabled on https://www.twitch.tv/settings/prime. For paid subs, if the share box doesn't show up immediately it will when they refresh the page. https://i.imgur.com/VNJN0Uv.gif https://i.imgur.com/2297EA7.png
hey for some reason my commands in my twitch chat arnt working. any help would be appreciated
@rugged trench Have them check their prime settings page
They may have sharing disabled.
Ok. Will do thank you!
Would that keep me from knowing they subbed via events page?
Unfortunately it can't be shared after the fact if it was in fact disabled.
But next time they sub with prime their sub will be shared with us and they'll get an alert 😃
Yes, we aren't notified about re-subs and prime subs unless they are shared in chat
However, your sub # will rise as that number is pulled directly from Twitch
Ok thank you very much 😄
You're welcome 😃
@unreal flame What commands? Do you have them enabled? Is our bot modded in your channel?
Can StreamElements do polls?
Fairly late but figured I'd ask, is there anything that would prevent events from showing on the activity log? Had some hosts and tips not show up or trigger alerts
@proper hearth Are you sure you have them enabled in your activity feed tab?
Correct, all events have the checkmarks
@proper hearth can you send me privately an example of a tip that did not show in the activity feed?
Hey guys, my overlay isnt comign up on OBS, i re-uploaded it and tis till doing the same. Any advice?
if i turn my alerts off it works? can someone lemme know a fix for this
it's pretyt bad tbh
Checking it out now, have you tried the option 'Refresh cache of current page' in the properties of the browser source in OBS?
I saw what was happening, I've taken a GIF of it and i've put it in our internal support member channel to see why that might be happening 🤔
thanks man
Fixed in stream ⤴
Sorted, thank you very much @tight harness Great service as always 😄 
😄 
im trying to get a overlay from this site but for some reason its not working for me anyone help me
Get it into OBS or xsplit?
obs
!add
To add your overlays to OBS, add a new browser source in your scene. Paste your overlay URL in the browser source properties, set the dimensions to 1920x1080 (unless you changed them on the website), and :ballot_box_with_check: “Shutdown source when not visible” https://youtu.be/KDvLynUqXI4
only comes with part of it no idea why
The overlay URL is the address you see when you click the edit pencil icon to edit your overlay. There’s a chain icon next to the URL that will copy the whole URL
You can also Launch Overlay by clicking the first icon in the My Overlays section on the overlay you want and copy the URL from the address bar
did that too only part of it shown in obs
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
im on streamlabs obs if that makes a differance
I have no knowledge of slobs. I use OBS studio from obsproject.com
ill put it in obs see if it works with that
Let us know here
ahh thats done that no idea why slobs wouldnt do it
OBS is better 😄
just need to do some fidling
Glad it worked for you!
thanks @dry hare
You’re most welcome! Have fun streaming!
Added media share widget to overlay, tried to play some media, not working, any ideas?
@autumn star whats not working exactly?
I created an overlay, added a media share widget, I go to my media request dashboard, queue up some media, click on play, then it says I don't have a media widget
you clicked "show on stream"?
NO ACTIVE WIDGETS WERE DETECTED FOR MEDIA REQUEST
just skip the tutorial
LUL
I was just clicking on play on the videos in the queue so it wasn't loading up
had to hit the next button on the tutorial
😃
now I must go to android beta to discuss the rest
Hey, i got an open support case which hasn't been solved for a week, is this the right place to get assistance?
is there a way to get a subtitle / description like thingy?
Yes, I don't see any unsolved tickets so you can either talk to us about it here or reply to the email @next crown
for example shift+enter in tippingpage-title for subtitle
if not, i'd add it on ideasboard, if it isn't there yet
@vale wyvern thanks for the update
Hey guys, I noticed that neither I nor my mods could edit commands in chat by doing !editcom or anything. Is this just how Streamelements works?
@fiery meadow if i may help, the syntax to edit commands on Streamelements is !command edit NameofCommand TextofCommand
So for example "!command edit !today Nothing" would change !today to say Nothing, correct?
Oh awesome
Thanks @next crown
You don't need the ! infront of the command name within the command, only at the beginning before !command
Ah okay, thank you
No problem 😃
Quick question when it comes to "Bonus points for cheering 100 bits" under cheer bonus if i set to 100 if they drop me 10K bits do they only get 100 points ot 10k points?
also if they are a sub would they get 3 times to points ( as i have set)
So, if a guy dropped 10K bits and 100 extra points per 100 its wouldnt he get 30K points?
They only get 3 times for the time points not the bonus points.
AH ok
so if i have it set 10 points every 10 minutes, subs get 30 points every 10 minutes?
Yes
awesome ty
For some reason, my Event list widget is not showing my recent subs, or least, my last 3 events (sub, follow, bits)... but I see the other events before it
refreshed the page, and still not showing
Are the missing events showing in your activity feed?
Yeah they are, but they're missing from the event list, just had a look 🤔
hey guys, I looked before but couldn't find it, but has there been a highlight command (timestamps the current time within the stream) implemented?
Yea, its showing up on my streamlabs history and the sub/bits/follow are all valid. Then I check streamelements's event list widget, its not showing up, and the last 3 isn't showing up. I even deleted my current event list widget and recreated it, still the same.
hi for some reason my overlay editor isnt allowing me to change the alert sound for my cheer alert, also SE isnt picking up one of my subs
Was the sub a resub or a prime sub? They need to share the sub via chat for it to alert
It was showing the other night, then the next day, the last 3 event is no longer showing
it was like this:
@reef gate Did you recently become affiliate? Like after starting to use SE? If you do not see "subscribers" or "cheers" on your dashboard, log out of SE site and log back in https://streamelements.com/logout
yes i became affiliate on the 6th april and i got my first sub that night after setting everything up, all of my others have registered just not the first
It sounds like they subbed before logging out and back into the SE site, same thing happened to me. SE needs to get a new token from Twitch to show you have affiliate status, and this is done when you log out and back into the SE site.
As for the cheer sound issue, what is going on with that, like what is happening when you try to change the sound?
sub still not showing
on my end
on the event list
i logged out and logged back in
still the same
well i change the sound and hit save and when it is tested it playes the original basic sound, i have tried removing all sounds then adding my chosen one and it still payes the basic sound
and also i have logged yout and back in but it still didnt work, its showing i have 5 subs but i have 6
So that first sub you got, will not show on the dashboard if it happened before SE got your updated twitch account token showing that you are affiliate. The logging out and logging in is just a onetime thing you would need to do after becoming affiliate. If you were to use something like a total subs widget, that would reflect your current sub count.
The sub count on the dashboard is not a total sub count.
For the cheer sound, have you checked in all of the variations? it sounds like a variation might be what is being triggered
yeah ive checked in all of them
i have changed the cheer alert sound in everything i have
all other alerts changed but this one didnt
@twin fable I am sorry to say, but it seems your issue is beyond my power. If you sit tight, someone who can help should be able to look into this further
If you clear the sound, do you still hear any audio? just doing a quick test with cheer alerts, everything seems to be working fine as long as the variations are changed and saved
yes if i clear the sound it still makes noise
What browser are you using? Do you by chance have more than one alert widget in this overlay?
no i only have one alert widget and im using microsoft edge
Can you try with Chrome? Everything is built with chromium, so chrome is the preferred browser
Hello guys
]ok i will try
need help with streamelements store
the sound clips in my streamelements store after redeemed isnt playing? could u help please?
Someone just subbed with a tier 2 sub and I didn't get a notification on stream. The tier 1 subs are coming through just fine, is there a reason this might be happening?
Not seeing it on your recent events list which suggests to me they didn't share it
They also did not recieve the stream currency that comes with subbing
!share
Twitch prime (new and resub) and paid subscriptions (resub only) must be shared in chat manually by the person subscribing in order for the subscription information to be sent to StreamElements. For twitch prime, the user needs to have sharing enabled on https://www.twitch.tv/settings/prime. For paid subs, if the share box doesn't show up immediately it will when they refresh the page. https://i.imgur.com/VNJN0Uv.gif https://i.imgur.com/2297EA7.png
Oh ok so there's an option to actually share it when they sub or keep it private?
yeah, they should see the option in their chat window, at the top
ok so i have tried in chrome and the overlay wont even save changes now
@KITE please solve my issue too
@crimson vortex did you add the store redemption widget to your overlay?
@reef gate I just went into your overlay (in chrome), made a text widget that says "Test" and saved it, saved perfectly fine
its not letting me save anything on my end
also i havent seen your test widget on my overlay?
I deleted it after I made it, it was a test, didn't want to leave the word "Test" on your overlay
lol i would have deleted it but still i am unabvle to change my cheer alert sound
*unable
can you make other changes to your overlay or just cheer alert @reef gate
that won’t save
check your cheer variations
You have to change it in the variations, changing the default one would do nothing
hey, i have been using the ground control app to have music requests in stream, during the stream i have to keep turning it off and bk on again because it keeps buffering, is this a known issue?
ive changed every other alert that same why, why would this one be different
and that still doesnt explain why the save button doesnt work on the cheer tab
because there are different gifs/sound for different levels of cheers @reef gate
Do you have buffering problems when using the Media Request site? It might be worth it to try going to a random youtube video, and lowering the video quality on that. That should reflect in the Media Request videos as well @lament blade
you can set variations for other alerts , but we have them by default for cheers by nature.
ok kite ty
please help me guys
the sound clips in my streamelements store after redeemed isnt playing? could u help please?
If they are not playing on your stream this would be an indication that either you do not have the redemption widget in your overlay, or you do not have the audio source that is playing on being broadcast
ok finally the sound has changed now why wont tts work for it
the overlay is there i issume let me check it again
Everything for your new alert settings has to be done via the variation, if TTS isn’t enabled in the variation you won’t hear it
got it thanks
does it have to do anything with the W10 update?
because when i try to test the sounds from streamelements .. the alerts pop up .. but the sounds play after like 2-5 mins
I would not expect windows updates to have anything to do with it. If you are using a stream perk as the item that plays the sound, the sound should play when you see the image appear in the store redemption widget
not its not the alert
'm talkin abt the sound clip thing in the item store
where in after redemption of that ... a sound will be played
not the alert
When i receive a tip, the TTS message repeats 2 or 3 times, why?
@ebon barn 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
Yeah I've done that but it repeats anyway :/
@crimson vortex I am talking about store redemptions also. You mentioned an alert pop up, then the sound plays later. If you were using a sound item, nothing pops up, it only plays a sound, and that is done via the store redemption widget. If you use the stream perk, this will display the image in the store redemption widget as it plays a sound if one is associated to it.
i need some help with alerts
does the alert noise repeat? @ebon barn or just tts
Just the tts @dense jackal
3 times when I had TTS on, 2 times when I press "Emulate tip event" And tts is off
🤔 Interesting, haven’t heard of this happening what is your twitch username?
have you also checked your overlay for multiple hidden alertboxes in your layers?
Woops! Forgot to check in the "Shutdown source when not visible" When I made a new overlay
It solved it 😄
Thanks!
whatsup @rocky comet what’s ur issue
@rocky comet 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
Hello?
@vernal osprey
@tawny pivot hey i need help i want to change the name of my bot and i dont know how to do it
@worthy solstice Custom bot name requirements
- StreamElements bot modded and in chat
- Active overlay with alerts
- StreamElements tipping page in the panels below the stream (!panels)
- Create a 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)
how can i change the coin name ? i see it the variables but cant edit anything
your loyalty points? @spice zodiac

Hey team, does anyone know if we have an ETA for when we can control the media app via keyboard commands?
No ETA, but it is currently being worked on @untold sorrel GC as a whole is being rewritten
@nimble owl what isn’t working? specifically?

but auto hosts somehow triggering it?

@fierce light
Twitch doesn't have a "notification system" for hosts (unlike follows, subs, raids, etc.) so the only way for StreamElements to know that you are being hosted is to connect through you to twitch. This connection is made on:
- SE Dashboard page - https://streamelements.com/dashboard
- SE Activity Feed page - https://streamelements.com/dashboard/activity
- Ground Control desktop app - https://streamelements.com/groundcontrol
Please have one of these open during your stream in order to receive host event notifications.
Thanks @dense jackal
hey Stream elements staff There's something you need to know
do tell @normal igloo
@serene granite Daily reminder that you guys are awesome


hey i hear that they are some legends here who can help me sort sth out
Always. Whats up
You're not wrong 
Far-out
💯
how do i connect it with OBS?
!add
To add your overlays to OBS, add a new browser source in your scene. Paste your overlay URL in the browser source properties, set the dimensions to 1920x1080 (unless you changed them on the website), and :ballot_box_with_check: “Shutdown source when not visible” https://youtu.be/KDvLynUqXI4
that you bot
thank you
I know how to stream with OBS
I am going to check the video
thank you very very much
at the meantime have fun...and always tip the waitress
That’s the way to add your overlay. What it doesn’t tell you is where to get the URL (overlay editor or via launch overlay from my overlays)
In the overlay editor when you first load into the editor, there is a link icon (looks like a little chain link) that when clicked will copy the URL to your clipboard. That can then be pasted into OBS
Or you can click launch overlay button in the My Overlays section of your dashboard on the overlay you want to use, and copy the URL from the address bar
ok
lets try this
i think it is a great service this streamelements
how long is it on the web?
I’m not at my computer to show you what I’m talking about
Until you delete your overlay
no problem mr Orsuna
Yeah, whats up
hi kite
Can you jump in for me?
nobody i hope
Ok, any more questions then?
I am a really good tipper 
The SE videos? If you seek more answers than the video can provide, you know where to find us 
Hey is anybody able to help me with enabling the !songreuqests command?
You just need to enable media request, the command is controlled by that, and not the command list
Ok so if I had MEdia Share enabled chatters will be able to type !songrequest followed by a URL?
can some 1 help me with the res setting for some reason wont let me change it
Yes they can, but it will depend on the settings you have in the Media Request options, like the command level, and cost, etc.
What rez setting you talking about? for the overlays?
thanks kite
yh kite wont let me change it
its best to keep the overlay at 1920x1080, and adding it to your broadcast software at that resolution. If you stream at a lower resolution, then this will all be handled by your broadcast software.
kite can i screen share with you on team viewer ill show u what i mean
Ok great. Another issue i'm having with it is that when adding the media play overlay as a browser source it doesnt appear to be playing in my OBS
No, I am at work, and cant, can you try to explain your problem and provide screenshots if necessary
@agile iris You have the media share widget in this overlay, and clicked the show on stream option in media request?
Yeah, when I press play on the media share playlist I can see it playing on stream elements on the overlay page but not in OBS
and its my top layer
did you click the show on stream eye
@lament ember looks like the resolution in your browser source is not correct
Yeah
i know i cant change it
did it say showing on stream? or did it tell you it could not find the widget?
@lament ember click the little gear with your browser source selected
Its best to just ask the question
ask thy questino
ive made a new overlay but the follow sound from another overlay still plays despite clearing the audio and deleting the sound file from the editor?
@lament blade So what is happening when you try to tip?
@lilac gale have you removed the old layer from OBS, it may be playing from there
and make sure you have the shutdown when not visible check on all browser sources that make noise
@agile iris Can you try making a new blank overlay, and just add the media share widget, and test this to see if it works?
like the ninja? the one that does not use SE?
You need to contact StreamLabs
@agile iris 
Ninja does not use our service
you might need to contact paypal on that part then
because all our services do is connect the paypal pages to pay
just rescaled as u sed and its gone massive
you will have to wait for them. Again, we don't do anything with it other than connecting the pages.
@lament ember What is your browser source resolution, and your base canvas? Have you tried using ctrl+f to fit the source to the canvas
I am a twitch streamer. So is kite
I get nothing in OBS though thats my worry
@lament blade we are all streamers
kite source is 1080 i belive
lol

There are hundreds of thousands of streamers, I would be hella shocked if you knew them all
You can get it by going to my discord profile
this channel is for support with SE services, if you want to talk games, and other streamers, please do so in #general-chat or #welcome
Kite got it working, appreciate the help, have a nice day
Im honestly not 100% sure but i refreshed my media share page on stream elements and it appeared on OBS
@narrow coyote the res thing not working lol
ok, what is your base canvas in OBS, and the resolution you put into the browser source
source is at 1080 obs is also 1080
ok, then if your overlay is 1920x1080, then it should just fit. If it is off size, then hit ctrl+f to get it to fit to the canvas
unless you have the resolutions entered wrong somewhere
Ok, stop
Taken care of
👍

of course, ask away
in the overlays there are some pictures like facebook and twitter...how do i link them?
Is it a well known problem that it takes 1 million years to update " Game Title " on twitch , wether i edit it on twitch or streamelements it always take half a year..
You will want to just replace the text with your social media name
@lament blade there is no way to "link" them, you just put the names in.
@pale eagle its a twitch thing. If the bot says its successful, then you just need to wait. Or try refreshing the page
its gotten a lot better in the last year
I though it was an <a tag </>
The overlays are just overlays, you can't click on them as a viewer
It's actually gotten better? damn i'm happy i didn't stream back in the days then
❤


Heya 😃 Getting really annoyed with Chat Alerts module now
It won't let me customise redemptions message
Check all the chat alerts and make sure nothing is empty
if anything is empty it wont save correctly
It says it's saving ok. I have turned off redemptions messages but still get a message
I have tried ssaving a different message but it STILL give the default message
Maybe try parting the bot from the channel and rejoining it. Testing this on my end, I do not have a problem modifying the store redemption chat alert in the chat alert widget
Tried it. No difference
Still says "@stark furnace
you successfully redeemed Banned for 0 points." and it's turned off !!
that is not from the chat alert module
It says your redemption chat alert is disabled for me 🤔
The second message is from the chat alert module, the first one is from the redemption command
Tried turning off the !redeem command? 🤔
No cos I want to redeem, but not have an alert in chat
I see, that's not possible currently
Bugger 😦 !!
SO if I put in a custom message it would return with 2 different messages like @narrow coyote screenshot ?
@tight harness
Ohhhhh 😦
Ground Control and a few of my overlays are refusing to load in, anyone else running into the issue?
Oh well ty anyway @tight harness @narrow coyote
I have not had that issue, you using a VPN or something? I have that problem sometimes when I forget I am using my VPN
Negative, only my main overlay won't load. All the other ones do just fine, and when ground control starts up, it's just an empty gray background with the settings cog looking realll lonely.
well, just duplicating my overlay and using a new link fixed the overlay problem, but ground control is still broke. I'll monkey with it I guess.
for ground control, you might want to uninstall and reinstall it. After uninstall check for ground control files in %appdata% and delete them. I dont remember the exact directory tree, and I am at work so cant check on that
OH BTW - Forgot to ask - is it possible to have a custom script loaded for chatbot ?
Apparently some other bots can do it but it appears streamelements can't ?
or so I have been told
No, custom scripting is not supported for the chatbot
😦 Ok then. Thanks hun
wait hold up now
how does streamlabs know ive been hosted
but not stream elements?
and do auto hosts only trigger my host notification
why do i need the stream elements windows app for this to work?
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.
StreamLabs connects as you through their Alertboxes. We think it is an insecure way of doing it, so we do it through the activity feed
hope this answers your question
as for autohosts, its a separate system?
auto host works the same 
Hello! host bonus doesn't seem to be working for points. Is there typically a lag? I have it set to give 30 points for a host.
Are you getting hosts in the activity feed and are they more than 0?
yes i get them in the feed and they're for 1 or more viewers
Problem with customizing overlays for SE. The text boxes are snapping to certain points when I'm trying to position it within a certain box and it's driving me crazy, lol
I want to put it inside a box, but it keeps snapping to above and below the box, but never inside the box where I want it to go
Oh. My. God. I didn't even know that button existed. Thank you!
Love this discord, everyone's been super helpful 😃
No problem! Took me a bit before I knew it was there too 
That opens up so many more doors for me now...
Next question, some advice, if I intend to use this overlay for a game where I'm not playing any songs or doing any song requests, what's a good thing to put in place of 'Current Song', or maybe just remove it and center the recent donation?
yeah, if you are not going to use it I think that removing it, and placing another element or widget in its place will be best
I'll just look through the widgets, if I don't find anything yeah I'll just remove it and center another of the widgets I'm using, thank you for the help!
Anytime

Is there something going on with hosting? It was working yesterday (Hi yes I know I’m back so quickly 👀)

can someone help me set up SE chatbot for PS4?
@charred narwhal it's the same for any system. Just log into streamelements and join the bot to your channel from the dashboard
🤔Aw. Thanks. I’ll have to see that out then
what is the / command to allow bot to be mod to function properly?
@charred narwhal/mod streamelements
thank you. Can I post SE community on my streams?
Yeah
Whoever posted that thing for streamelements, thank you. That was the reason (unless that was automatic then thank you...bot?...kinda scary to think)
👀Remind me to never be around you when something goes down 😂
that's too easy.... anyways, I just greet new people
Lol
It was me. The bot automatically deletes the command when someone is tahhed

Hey guys, is there anyway to add text that disappears and reappears every so often?
Like if I wanted to add a "Type x in chat to request a song" and have it appear once every 5 minutes
i have 3 different bits that i want to drop at random for my followers is there anyway to make it so i have that variation?
so that it drops a random bit each time i get a follow
@obsidian tree timers, bottomleft of dashbaord
@lunar furnace yes, use the variations tab
in the overlay editor
I have issues with alerts and redemtions is there anyone around who have issues with these things or is there any staff member who could help me with this topic ?
@calm torrent can you explain the issues? It is easier to assist
ok i will
when someone redeem anything from my store alert is not poping up... second thing is that i transfered everything from SL to SE and alert box didnt worked. Now what i did is to remove that transfered alert box and made totally new one but if i try to emulate any alert its not showing up anywhere
@cinder moat nope, we only help setup streamelements
@cinder moat I highly recommend watching the videos, then asking more detailed questions. it makes it a lot easier on you and the support staff
https://strms.net/welcome <-- all the videos here
@calm torrent for the store alerts, add the store redemption widget. For the second, let me have a look at your overlay with the imported box. Was it custom CSS stuff, or normal images and text
even if i do default and try to emulate nothing happens
give me a second. My internet is being complete crap
no probs take your time mate
it goes trough OBS but on actual page nothing is happening :/
what browser are you using?
mozilla

for the editor itself, I recommend using chrome. The editor is kinda fineky, and works best there
But if its working in OBS, that is the important piece
👍
how do you change your bot name? i see the option in the ground control but np way to type a name
@noble smelt Custom bot name requirements
- StreamElements bot modded and in chat
- Active overlay with alerts
- StreamElements tipping page in the panels below the stream (!panels)
- Create a 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)
im checking it out right now
@lunar furnace I was just able to do this in your alert box:
I did not save, but it is possible
oh its in the darn alert box lol i was looking at the hype cup settings LOL

i was looking for variations for the hype cup XD
ahhh, yeah, hype cup doesn't have options for follower variations
for the bits that drop in the hype cup 😦
i wish i could do that because having that random would be nice
how could i make a sprite sheet that would make them rotate between all three images
should i run non animated scenes if im running off my gpu and getting bad streaming frames/
?*
your stream encode isn't x264? you're using NVENC?
i dont like the way its functioning as a sprite sheet considering it has so few frames
is there anyway for yall to add the ability for variations for bits on followers
Add more frames. Check out the length of the sprite sheets on the other variations. I don't think we will be adding that any time soon, as it isn't a highly requested feature at this point. I would just add the images you want many times over in sequence so that it lasts for a bit longer, then switches to the other image
A staff member came to my channel earlier to try to figure out why song requests were being auto skipped and said it was because of vote skip. Apparently if vote skip started and didn't complete it would mess with SR. However, I've disabled vote skip and sr is still skipping songs. Can someone come to my channel to test please?
yup, on my way
@safe kettle 1. Do a refresh of your media request page. 2. I am sending this information to the devs, something weird is happening that is causing it to skip those songs. Your settings look fine
Is this the correct channel to ask questions about using Stream Elements on Twitch?
@weary mist ty for your help. I will get the information you requested sent to you as soon as I can. As usual you guys are awesome
👍
Is there a way to get rid of the bell sound notification for tips etc? I have my own custom sound I'm wanting to use and the bell still plays after my uploaded sound does
@long haven that sounds like there is a secondary overlay with the sound, or one that isn't updated. Make sure to mute the browser when testing with OBS open, refresh cache in the browser if the sound isn't updating, and to hit save in the overlay editor
@weary mist Ok, awesome. Thank you!
ok, so i only have the dashboard up and i am getting double notifications on my stream whenppl host/raid me
How do i fix that
@hasty briar 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
ok, i will try that ty
(Sorry for putting this here, didn’t know where else to put this)
I wanted to say, thank you all for helping and for making StreamElements. Honestly the help and support that I’ve gotten for me and my friend has been quick and possibly the best support with answers and helpfulness. Very understanding to what the problem was and even found the blunders from my friend and myself regarding to it.
I love the design and sleekness of StreamElements that and how quickly everything is. You basically made it so a 5 year old could figure this out haha. I like it and it’s perfect. That and I respect the care you guys put into helping people out. Amazing team and amazing product...bot...whatever you want to call it haha.
Again, sorry for putting this in here. I just wanted to put this somewhere where hopefully you guys will see 😃
Sorry if this isn't the correct place for asking about this, This is the first time i've ever even used SE
Basically what I'm looking to do is animate my Chat box which i can see is something that I can do but whenever I try it doesn't seem to do anything different. Am I doing something wrong?
Hi! My host alert isn’t working. Pops up in chat, but the actual notification stream doesn’t pop up. I’ve tested it through SE and it works, but once I start stream and someone hosts me, it doesn’t do anything.
@fleet wyvern
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:

@Migels#9264 two things. 1. I am not 100% sure on the chat box, I haven't played much with it. 2. save the overlay, exit, re-open it in the editor. if that doesn't work, try clicking off the widget, then back onto the widget before making any changes
That doesn't work either.
Keeping one of those 3 options open while streaming will allow hosts to show up.
Hi, I recently did a name change on my channel. Is there anyone I can prevent my viewers from losing all their points? I go to account setting, it says "The Channel you tried to add is linked to a different account." when I tried to add a twitch channel. I am afraid if I add connect it under my new name, it will reset everyone's point. Can I export my list?
any way*
All you need to do is log out of our site and log back in
everything should stay the way it is
Your new twitch name is BonniesLab correct? Thats what it shows you logged in as now
yea
It doesn't seem like streamelement was working on my stream when I did the commands
I can try again when I'm live next time
It should update all your stuff to your new name now that you've logged out
As for the bot, you may need to part the bot from the main dashboard, log out, log back in, and join the bot again
Let us know if its not working when you're live next though :)
oh maybe it's just the bot
Could be, it doesnt auto-join when a name change occurs since we have no way to track changes such as that automatically
also, you'll want to re-link your twitch with discord too
yw
are the servers down? two of my overlays aren't woking
@grim warren not as far as I know. If you are using OBS, double click the browser source, scroll down, and hit the refresh cache button
@weary mist no luck
Not really sure then, because I just loaded mine up with zero issues
@weary mist got it to work. restarted pc and then refreshed cache
:+1:
Random question but I'm having an issue I couldn't figure out through google-fu; If I have an overlay with a Chatbox, and change Scenes to one that doesn't have the Overlay present in it, the Chatbox is wiped clear when I go back to my original scene. Is there a way to make the chat persist through scene changes? (using OBS)
Oh, I should mention that I have "Shutdown source when not visible" checked so the audio doesn't play in other scenes.
Hello everyone, I am a small streamer from Hong Kong and I would like to ask a question about the loyalty point system that confuse me a lot. Since the viewers always using !points and !roulette, it make the chat room so annoying. I know some streamer can put the SE command messages into the viewers' twitch inbox (such as the !points for checking the loyalty points). Can someone tell me how to make it? Sorry for my poor English and thank you for the support.
@light mauve Your chat will show the present chat when you will switch back to it.
Also you can use your StreamElements Profile page to track the chat anytime 😃
I have a question regarding something (I’m not sure if this is possible for streamelements right now)
Basically it’s a !join command so when someone types in !join X it’ll add them to a queue list which when I type !queuelist it’ll post the queuelist and show who’s next.
I’m trying to move everything over to streamelements (I was using nightbot for it) and for some reason it doesn’t seem to be working, I’m possibly doing it wrong not entirely sure. (I’m currently in a different stream and setting everything up how I had it for the nightbot in another stream. So I’m confused wether i’m doing it wrong or that maybe streamelements doesn’t support this)
Instead of saying “You have joined the queue” it posts the entire response regarding it
@cedar fulcrum Mine only displays the chat that has been entered since I opened the scene. If I change from one scene to another, the chat disappears because the Browser gets re-opened. I can show you what I mean in my latest stream vid if it'll help demonstrate what I am seeing.
You can make a Scene just for the Chat and not make it as Shutdown. I understand what you mean because you close and reopen the scene
we don't have that yet @arctic hornet but it's asked I think
Well I’ve been using a API i think it’s called? Basically its a whole link process I used for nightbot
yep and it's planned https://streamelements.helprace.com/i197-viewer-queue-system
u can upvote it 😃
Welb. I shall wait for that then 😃
Thank you, Rippz. Not sure if you saw my earlier message thanking you guys haha. But seriously this support and everything you guys do are wonderful
I just got in but thank you, we're here for each other 
😃 haha well seriously you’re all amazing. You helped out my friend while I was basically just doing a relay information and was able to get the situation figured out
@raven rock sorry for the long time to reply to u, u can do this one way, disable !points command here https://streamelements.com/dashboard/bot/commands/default then go to custom commands and add a new one, can be !points of what u prefer and use this as bot response $(user) has $(user.points) $(pointsname) and is rank $(user.points_rank) on the leaderboard. then go to advanced and change where it is written Say to Whisper
ofc u can customize message as u wish, as u can see on image mine is customized, that's just the default code
the roulette command can't be customized like this though, as far as I know
@rippz0r Thank you for reply and I solved the problem successfully
ahh hehe, nice 😃
Hey everyone. I can't seem to get the custom bot part of the Ground Control app to show anymore. Did something happen"?
did you change your Tipping-link in your panels? or don't use our overlays anymore?
ah
yes
good point
I had to disable it because charity stream
Thanks!
I completely forgot about that
oh yeah I just saw you closed it
okay - second question - someone hosted me with 30 viewers but Ground Control showed 0
is that a bug?
sadly it needs to be in a pannel you can upload a empty PNG as a pannel and put the link there also if you want to not get donations ATM but still want the costom Bot name
@cloud shoal maybe a Hiccup from Twitch. Twitch has been a bit inconsistent with API's and Viewerlist's ATM :/
did they also raid?
I've had ppl raiding with xx amount of ppl and host regarding that raid showed 0
nah just host
Next annoying question - how long after readding the tip link does it show custom bot name options?
@cloud shoal What do you mean exactly?
he means how long after he added the tip link in panels, does it take for the rename option for bot to show up
^^
best would be to quit ground control after u setup everything and open again
yeah i've reopened it a few times
I just got told it takes a few hours
alright no worries, cheers!
also may I suggest a little something?
u need to eat a little more, u look way too thin from the pic 😄
just kidding ofc, I like skulls a lot too, have a great day 😉
hehe yeah I'm just way too silly 😂
@gentle imp LUL
gotta have fun tbh, life's too short ^_^
^^
am i able to transfer view points because they change their names?
<@&382267076632379392>
Yes, !bonus <new username> <amount of points> then !bonus <old username> <-amount of points>, the - before the amount of points for the old account will remove those points from the old name
@fluid tangle ⤴
ok thanks, ill come back here if i face any problem
Alright 😃
@tight harness so i have to put in 2 commands?
!bonus <new username> <amount of points>
then
!bonus <old username> <-amount of points>
Yes, 1 to add the points to the new name and 1 to remove the points from the old name
you can set the access level for the bonus command in the default commands page
!bonus <call_me_gibby> <16780>
like this am i right?
or !bonus call_me_gibby 16780
@tight harness
Without the < >
That was just to demonstrate that you put the value there
So the second example you gave is correct
Then !bonus call_me_gibby -16780 to remove
can normal mod do it?
If you set it to a moderator command in your Chat Commands, sure
ok thanks
No problem 😃
is it possible to have ground control go through a different sound channel? so i cna set the volume on my end but have it higher for the stream
?
oh and is it possible to put a playlist into ground control or you have to put video link by video link
?
tried adding a playlist and nothing :/
@steady monolith the New Media Request Feature works best in a Chrome Browser
Ground control also gets a Rework ATM till then: BackUpPlaylist can be added with out a Problem in the Media Request Tab on your StreamElements Dashboard
@steady monolith for the Volume you can make it more silent for you and your Headphones but turn the Audio Level in OBS up for your stream if that helps 
I need help setting up music for my twitch
okay whats up?
able to voice chat?
nah I cant I am at work right now
And trying to make it were i cant hot key my spotify to my obs\
Leave the Media Request Tab open in your browser play the Music from there OBS will pick it up via the Desktop audio source
oh you want spotify in obs?
yes
well thats not a StreamElements related question is it? 
I dont know Spotify Hotkey's I belive they are compatiable with the normal Music FN keys on your keyboard
so while ou listen to spotify OBS will pick it up via the Desktop audio
Well can you use stream elements to have music in your obs?
sure
so she just turned it on


what should i do now?
