So did you previously use streamlabs @toxic forge ?
yes
You know how the alertbox is a browser source? With SE you setup your entire overlay on our sight. recent sub follows, follow goal, alertbox, any graphics you have
which creates one link thaat you add as a browser source
ok
so OBS is webcam/browser source/ gameplay
This can help https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X7XrDdRE7Fk
understood but i dont have a webcam, not that it matters
No prob 
Is there a way to import all the previous followers i got while i was u sing stream labs and put it into stream elements
There's no way to import followers sadly, no
so all the follows and tips i got while using stream labs cant be transferred onto stream elements, i have to start new?
Tips you can do, followers you can't
I've never seen any service offering the ability to import followers, it's simply not a thing, glad you understand
Hi! Hows everyone? I just imported my nightbot to streamelements and its copying whatever nightbot is posting. I want to undo that. Like stop it from importing. Is there a way to do that? Thank you.
If you still have Nightbot in your chat and haven't yet parted it then it will still be posting as well
I'm just having trouble trying to get my biggest tippers name into the stream elements overlay that i chose, i go into obs and click on the brb slide for example and it just says no data.
Then you likely have Session Top Tipper selected instead of All Time Top Tipper
Check your overlay in the overlay editor
i checked it and it said all time
Are you sure you imported your tip data in that case?
I would like to stick using to nightbot since its using partnered streamers emotes. StreamElements posting the prefix of the emotes only and not showing the emotes.
Sounds like these partners you mention haven't yet asked Twitch for a free sub on the StreamElements bot, that's a shame π you can go to Chat Commands in that case and disable the ones you only want Nightbot to say
Go to Activity Feed > Widget Data > Aggregates > click on Refresh Aggregates
ok i did
Has that fixed your top tipper widget?
it still says -$0
What's your username?
Yes
HintOfSpice
Recent Tip is set to Session Top Tip, Top Tip you have set to Latest Tipper π€
how wth
So they need to be switched around
Also, as it's Session Top Tip opposed to All Time Top Tip you'll want to change that
Yeah, that's Top Tip, not Recent Tip
It says at the top
In fact it says it in a lot of places in that picture
Switch them around
As in drag the widgets so they're in the correct places
And change it from Session Top Tip to whatever you actually want it to display π
Because Session Top Tip is only for the current stream
Can someone please help me fix my bits notification? it shows in activity feed but not in alertbox
from what i see you have a minimum of 100 bits for the alert to show up, and you have not received more than 100 in the past 6,
hey i have a problem i cant import from streamlabs
Is there a reason my host alert doesn't show? I have the minimum set to 0, and when I get hosted, nothing shows up in alertbox.
!host @woven umbra
@woven umbra
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.
Please refrain from using [at]everyone or [at]here
Now I can't find my JWT Token :/
@woven umbra You can find your JWT token on your account channels page (Click on your name next to the Sign Out button) https://streamelements.com/dashboard/account/channels
@marble echo make sure you are logged into both the SE and SL dashboard before trying to use the importer
yeah thanks guys ;))
how do you change the minimum to show for bits
the alertbox for bits says its at min of 1
Fixed it! sorry about that
does anyone know how to set up a tts for tips
i see videos for streamlabs but not streamelements and i actually enjoy stream elements way more
I have a member who can't redeem store items when he has more than enough
I am a super moderator on TheGooseMayBeLoose's stream
on twitch
and we have a sub who can't redeem store items
@misty wagon
I think you can. The stream I am a supermod of did it
any idea of how i can do that?
let me ask him
there's a chrome extension that'll do it for you
https://support.streamelements.com/hc/en-us/articles/115000405371-Import-other-platforms-into-StreamElements @timber hearth
I need help
https://streamelements.com/dashboard/account/import @timber hearth
@native sapphire I can't help with that, needs a bot administrator. I'll poke the horns nest a bit π
What do you mean the right way? @timber hearth O_O
Thanks man! @misty wagon
did you see the two imigaes that i posted?
Wait, I think I understand. The "FeelsBadMan" is just the test, if that makes sense.
I'm going to follow your channel to see if it'll work
did everything get ported over?
No when i tried that it didnt work but i think i figured out getting my alerts to work. Can you hit the follow. I will see if it works. I have my OBS pulled up
TheRealDealTV
not even sure if it worked hahaha my stuff was going crazy.
Thank you for i think it showed up but i also had stream elements editor open and that went off too hahaha
@timber hearth Did you import your alerts?
i am about to try do it now. All i did was the follow alert.
On the top of the dashboard "Import" You can import alerts easily from other services π Saving you time and energy
I tried doing it and it didnt work
any bot admins on?
What do you mean by bot admin?
I am support
a person who is in charge of fixing bots on stream elements
Yeah i tried the import thing and it didnt work at all
And @timber hearth I'm not sure why it's not working for you, dude. If you end up just continuing editing alerts through SE overlay editor, you can use this; https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X7XrDdRE7Fk
Create an amazing overlay with StreamElements, watch our video guide to learn how. ----- Tipping page setup: https://youtu.be/eLzxRkq7tJo Add KappaGen to you...
I am a super moderator on TheGooseMayBeLoose's stream
on twitch
and we have a sub who can't redeem store items
Oh. The "admin" part threw me off.
A sub who can't redeem store Items. Can you show me some more info please?
Kite is typing π
is it all store items or only certain ones? and has the user changed names recently?
all and it is just one sub
like it says he has no points to redeem with, but he has like over 100,000 points
I have seen this once before, but in that case it was not all store items, it was only a small number and remaking them seemed to solve the issue in that case
Its just the import that dosent work
And they have not changed their name on twitch?
link me the channel?
if they try to redeem from the store itself is it the same?
idk. idk if he tried
he might have
we linked the store url
so can i add my overlays and everything to SE or do i have to add that into OBS?
you build the overlay in SE and add it to OBS as a browser source
xD
LUL


okay trying to figure out how to add my overlays and images and all that.
@GamingWithTheYeti, Sudzy_tLK has 300 Goose Coin and is rank 589/1120 on the leaderboard.
depending on the setup you can add images to the overlay, or add them directly to OBS and have a mix of them. thats how i have most my scenes set up
4 browser sources, game, cam, image, and audio. all 4 browser sources are from SE. gives me more control over stuff
so basically all that i can save in SE is just the alerts. But i cant have my starting soon and all that stuff in there
no, you can put whatever you want in the overlay
okay. That is what im trying to figure out how to do.
it all depends on how you want to set it up, and what you have. Like your images, if its stuff like stream labels, or a window frame, you can easily add that to the overlay
so the example i gave above, i have my frame, and goal in one overlay, my alerts in another, event list etc. the only image i have that is local is the background image, and that is full screen and it is easier for me to layer this way
then i have different overlay browser sources unique to their scenes, and ones that get reused in other scenes
so i can have all of my different scenes in SE? That is what im trying to figure out. If that makes sense
this is how my overlays look in SE
Wow....
and i use them to build these scenes in OBS
Oh okay now i am getting it.
so basically you do this all in SE and then you apply them into OBS.
yep
yes
of course the media backghround that i like to use is too big for SE sad face
Re-size?
any idea how to do that?
What format is it?
we dont support mp4
Use Webm <
how do i save it like that?
For alerts and such. I started animating in After Effects. Then using Premier Pro to convert it to Webm. I think @narrow coyote Gave me some tips on that.
it is from the nerd or die package so it saved as an MP4
can you send it to me?
i think that .mp4 importing was enabled for testing, its just not listed as a supported format
yeah i can send it to you one sec.
i still think that webm might be a better container at the end of the day
I love it. I animated my new Alerts. Then used Premier pro to make 700mb AVI files into 3-8mb Webm files π€
It says that it is too big to send
hahaha i think the only thing i can do is email it hahah i cant send it in discord hahaha
yeah, mp4 could give slightly better image quality, but webm is still high quality, and tiny file sizes
π«

@narrow coyote Are you proud? PogChamp
I still need to get better at AE, i want to make new alert animations
I got a book from amazon for 99p....
My new alerts are pretty much my face...... For donations. Green shining $$ Signs OpieOP
nice, i have access to a training site for pretty much anything, pluralsight, i just need to find the time to do it
do it!
Soonβ’ I was dabbling in CSS first to make my event list, which i still need to work more on
more like modified existing code, still need to rewrite a bunch of the default code so its more optimized, smoother, faster, stronger
its almost 1 day left till my 1 year anniversary of being affiliated on twitch. idk what to do for the 30th DX
@hearty peak Try logging out and back in.. i havent heard anything other than you rn
There's a bug with SE where if someone has the stream store open and sound effects are disabled, if they don't refresh they can still redeem store items.
^^^ This is a huge problem for streamers using sound effects and trying to switch to story driven games and turn store redemptions off
Nvm fixed by refreshing overlay
Hello @craggy night , How can I help you?
is everyhting you can do on pc possible on mobile o3o
i very much so do not have a desktop or laptop
Ping me if you answer, it's 1:21 and I'm slowly falling asleep
Hello @marsh star , In order to stream from mobile you need streaming App, At the moment we do not have that feature.

I made an overlay for mys tream
but wyhen I enter the url as the source, the overlay is too big to fit in the scene
if I resize it the whole incomplete window shrinks without revealing the whole window,
any advice
Hello @craggy night , What size did you save the browser source?
i dunno how do I find out?\
@craggy night Right click the Browser Source and click properties. On the window you should see width and height
β«
So i can only stream from my Xbox one, will my stream look like everyone elseβs anyway?
!console
Here is a guide on how to setup the most essential tools for streaming from your console, while using StreamElements tools without involving a Capture Card! It's easy to do, take 4 minutes to read and 10 to 15 minutes to setup!
Read all about it here: https://blog.streamelements.com/how-to-stream-on-console-7b620b1c46c3
But if you want to stream from your Console and have fancy overlays and alerts, then you will need a capture card and a PC
When i change that the whole things moves it doesnt showe the full window
Someone just subbed on my channel but it did not turn up on the notification or on Ground Control or anything. PLease help!
!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
@craggy night So just press the browser source and then keyboard combo "CTRL + F" - this should fit the entire browser source on the obs preview screen
I've got a question: The game I play "Clone Hero" has a functionality that exports the current song that you're playing into a text file in the directory it's installed in, on one of the overlays there's a "Now Playing" section which takes off the song-request functionality, Is there a way of porting the text file that gets created into the overlay?
our "Now Playing"/current song widget takes the song that is playing from Media Request(which plays from YT). From where is Clone Hero getting the current song?
Also if that text file is updated every so often, then its best to remove out current song widget and add the text file as plain text box via OBS on top. Let me fetch a screenshot.
Hey there, I just wanted to as real quick, since I lost my chat stats and watch time stats everytime I changed my name, can I lose my points/coins in a specific channel after changing my name? 
ye ik
@lunar cliff Most likely yes, you do loose your loyalty points in other channels as well.
You can ask the streamers to "transfer" the points over to your new name, from the old one
OHH thats helpful! thanksss! that doesnt work with stats though right?
chat stats? Don't think so
aight, thanks dudee β€

oh, another thing, Is there some form of subathon/tipathon timer functionality in the overlays?
Reason I ask: I'm planning on doing a few of those and I wanna know if it's possible through the overlays rather than an external tool
subathon? like sub train?
No, like, a timer for how long the stream will be (like the countdown feature) but the timer will increase by a certain amount with each donation/sub/bits etc
One way I'm thinking is the countdown timer. You can set a specific date on it and update the date manually unfortunately. I'm not familiar with another way. I'll ask around just in case.
Ye, I know about that one, it'd have to be its own feature tho π
There is no built-in feature we provide for the countdown method you want, but if you JS(or some friend who knows JS), you can use the custom event list widget to make your own that tracks and adds time.
So, Uh....Um...I accidently removed the default sound for the bits. How do I reset back the sound for the bit?
The default sound from one of the preset themes?
Yeah, You know the bit chime it does
I know couple of default sounds - one that came when bits were released, ones that are part of the preset themes from us. If you're not using one of our themes, one way to restore the sound is, to add the alert widget again and just copy over all the other settings you did then delete the alert widget that has no bit/cheer sound
Ah, okay.
Also, are you guys aware of you know the outlines for the Alert Widgets and Etc,. it snaps easily on the left side of the browser but not on the right?
I know it snap. I like it lit snaps.
But doesn't snap on the right side of the browser for me
Only on the left
aaah you mean on the other side? Use the magnifying glass or the inward/outward arrows
cuz the overlay editor be default is 1920x1080
so you may not be seeing the right end of the overlay editor
it still doesn't snap for me actually
Not really sure what it is cuz it won't snap for me on the left or top or bottom

Ummm, Hmmm
Also, I thought of an idea.
Should I post it in the #ποΈ±feedback-and-ideas ?
Yes but befor look pls into the ideas board

#2Fast2Furious
hey guys I have a 2560x1080 monitor, how do I resize that in OBS so I can use standard 1920x1080 overlays?
Input the overlay as 1920 x 1080 then use Ctrl + F in OBS Studio to make the overlay fit to your canvas π
worked like a charm for my ingame overlay but I get black bars on a graphic only overlay (brb overlay)
is there a way to select a different monitor as source for one specific scene? I'd just use my 1920x1080 side monitor for that scene then so there are no black bars
Do you mean black bars on Twitch? Because Twitch only allows 1920 x 1080 in any case
I use a 3440 x 1440 monitor myself so I know the struggle π
monitor source has nothing to do with settings, what matters is your canvas/downscale
ok so my stream output should be set at 1920x1080 right
but when I use a 1920x1080 overlay on that output it puts black bars left and right because my main source is my 2560x1080 monitor
and when I try it on twitch I also get black bars above and below my actual streaming image
or 1280x720, depends on which u want
Your stream output is set at a wider resolution, based on looking at your stream currently.
Its like your in a black box currently on the intermediate screen for me cuz of the wider output. That means I see black bars on top and bottom.
this is how it looks when it's on lower output
Now your sideways squished. Is your resolution 16:10?
Twitch doesn't support 21:9, they only support 16:9. So you're going to have to set everything including your Base Resolution in Settings > Video to 1920 x 1080
No, you can set your resolution to 1920 x 1080 in OBS
I've said above, monitor doesn't matter but your obs settings
yes but if I do that stuff gets cut off
Your monitor will still have it's uses, but that's not one of them π
check this out https://stream.twitch.tv/encoding/
@gentle imp if monitor doesn't matter how do I remove black bars without cutting off stuff?
If everything settings wise is set to 1920 x 1080 then nothing gets cut off
Because it's all 1920 x 1080 so there's no reason for it to be cut off
oh so if I change my game's settings to 1920x1080 as well that could work yeah
but in the end I have the black bars haha
If your OBS settings are 1920 x 1080 you're fine, you don't need to have the game's settings to 1920 x 1080 because as I explained earlier you can set the Scale Resolution for the Game Capture to scale down to a 16:9 resolution within OBS
when I change my OBS settings to 1920x1080 it cuts off a part of my screen
and when I adjust it I get black bars?
You should really take this up with OBS support. I myself do what we've told you to do and have no issues, i'm sure you've got a setting somewhere which needs changing but as it's not an issue with our service you should ask here: discord.gg/obsproject
alright I'll ask there. you didn't do more than just set your base video settings to 1920x1080 in OBS and then use CTRL+F to adjust and that's it? somehow gives me black bars idk I might just be an idiot
I didn't need to use Ctrl + F because my base resolution was already set at 1920 x 1080 which is identical to the resolution of my overlay on our site, it already fit perfectly
guys over at obs basically told me it's either cut, stretched or black bars
no idea how you made it work but thanks for your help guys π
They told you that if you stream in a 16:9 resolution you'd be fine π which means if your base resolution, your overlay and your scale resolution of your gameplay are all in a 16:9 resolution, i.e. 1920 x 1080 resolution then you'd not get the black bars
I'm in that discord π
Im back with more stupid questions, trying to set up my overlays completely, but when i add an image to the overlay, at 1920x1080, its hella small... any tips?
on the overlay editor?
@tight harness ofc, as I said, when I have black bars myself it works but it does not work without any black bars
You have black bars on the side of your own stream in twitch?
@gentle imp yeah
Cuz thats your own native monitor resolution that shows those side bars, if your finally streaming at 1920x1080
if I change my montior settings to 1920x1080 I have black bars on my own screen, stream is fine then
are you sure image is really 1920x1080 @tranquil snow
hello, i got an issue with chat bot, i have set a timer that should post message every 5 min but for at least 2 weeks its not posting it any help? π
If your monitor resolution isn't 1920 x 1080 then you'll see black bars at the side of every stream, because Twitch makes it 16:9, doesn't mean that everybody else sees that, the important thing is making sure you're streaming in a 16:9 resolution
@fresh scroll How high is the chat lines set for the timer? If its above 10-15, lower it to 5
@gentle imp picture should be 1080
streaming in a 16:9 resolution will result in either cut or stretched content or black bars for either myself or in the twitch player, tell me if I'm wrong on that
it was set to 60 lines now i have set it to 20 @zenith widget
Lower it even more, unless you have 20 people talking at the same time @fresh scroll
well..20 seems fine, but if still doesn't trigger, lower it even more
ok i have set it to 0... π
nooo thats a mistake you want to avoid, if the timer is set to 5 minutes
i question then if theres like 5 min interval and it was 60 lines it dosnt triger it every 5 min but every 60 lines?
There is an internal timer for the bot that tracks X amount of lines in 5 minutes
if those X amount of chat lines are not met in 5 minutes, the external timer is not triggered
select the image and look to the left side see if it's scalled or auto @tranquil snow
@rigid oak Twitch only supports 16:9 so you shouldn't be streaming in anything else, there's no discussion to have about it π whether you see black bars on a wider monitor is irrelevant, because it's about whether a monitor which uses the supported 16:9 resolution sees them or not, which they won't if you use the correct settings.
then this is stupid to be honest im seting it to post a message every 5 min but its not posting it should be more clarifide
should be auto so it fits/fills @tranquil snow
Its really a Twitch ~ chat bot related thing, as twitch hates spammy bots on the back end @fresh scroll
@tight harness it's not irrelevant for me to see black bars to the left and right of my gameplay. I'd love to stream in 16:9 without fucking up my own gaming experience
I meant within the twitch player, not on your monitor, we explained earlier that you don't need to change your monitor's resolution
So if i set it to 5 min and 5 chat lines and there will be 5 lines of text in chat then and only then bot will post a message
and in every 5 min there must be 5 lines of text for a post to best posted?
In total it should take ~6-7 minutes for the bot to repeat the timer
Also explained that it's an issue within your OBS settings, it's nothing to do with StreamElements
am i getting it correct?
@fresh scroll Yes
I know that it's not a StreamElements issue but you seem to know how to fix it
each 5 minutes the bot checks if there's 5 lines, if yes he posts if not he waits more 5 minutes
because the guys over at OBS support told me I had to either change my monitor setting or live with black bars basically
I believe they meant in the twitch player, because I see black bars at the side of every stream within Twitch, that's normal if you have a 21:9 monitor
legit no idea which settings you're talking about
Take Rippz0r's channel for example:
See the black bars? That's normal on a 21:9 monitor
Happen on every stream
Because i'm using a 21:9 monitor and Twitch only supports 16:9
link?
It happens on every stream, so the link to a specific stream isn't necessary
Same on yours
If you set your settings correctly they're the only black bars you should see, you don't need to change your monitor resolution, you only need to set your resolution to a 16:9 resolution in Settings > Video, if you add gameplay set the Scale Resolution to 1536 x 864, it's the option at the top
For example my Game capture settings for Bioshock:
Settings > Video
my base (canvas) res is 2560x1080 what should I put my output (scaled) resolution at
So that Base (canvas) resolution is wrong, it needs to be 1920 x 1080
Most people set their Output (scaled) resolution to 1280 x 720
Your screen?
Screenshot π€
and that's after you pressed Ctrl+F on the game capture?
before
ahh
Okay so I launched up WoW in 3440 x 1440 just now
That's a game capture set to Scale Resolution 1536 x 864
Obviously it doesn't look great because it's squashed down, but it means you don't need to change your game resolution
But the point is you never need to change your monitor resolution π
Yes
Unless you change your game resolution, in which case it'll look less squished
But you'll have to play in 1920 x 1080 in that case
unfortunately I can't change my game's resolution unless it's in windowed mode
Yeah, I normally play it Windowed anyway π preference I guess


Hello i add mp3 in sound of follow and he dont recognize what type it want? Thnx.
Mp3 works for our upload services, what kind of error are you getting?
I add the sound but when i test it i dont hear.No i havent error
I forgot only cheers(bits) doesnt hear the sound.
Follow,Host,Sub its ok
Check the volume on cheers maybe you reduced it
Volume 50% but i cant hear it yet
I'm in your overlay and you didn't have an alertbox, are you sure you're using our platform?
hi i have the problem and the captainbob help me
I dont have the problem @azure sedge have it but he dont know so good english π
@azure sedge I emulated a cheer and I heard everything, it's probably something with your sound settings
@summer mulch i hear the sound but if ichange the sound i hear the old sound
Change the sound and press save on the bottom left

You probably want to change the variations
yay
Thnx for your fast respawn!You know im new in that programm π
Will this PC lag when streaming? https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/450753237818015765/450995598682882048/unknown.png?width=564&height=754
fornite / overwatch
because im looking to buy a PC which is an upgrade from mY GPU: GTX 750ti 2GB CPU: AMD-6300
This PC is selling for Β£310 ($411)
You should test it :D best way to find out for sure, and mess with your obs settings
I just use an alt account to test it
i cant test it because it not mine .. its for sale
I can tell you in short, for gaming that PC for sale is good based on the specs you gave for your old one
I'd toss another few bucks to get another 8GB memory stick in it
and you should be good to stream even at 720p 30fps
but the CPU and GPU are good?
CPU is better then my home CPU
now that I look at the GPU - it aint that good
2GB VRAM isn't enough to support gaming and streaming
oh
no wonder the PC is cheap-ish
look for a PC around those specs, but the card should be at a woopin' 6GB VRAM for a steady gaming and streaming
else streaming will bottleneck your GPU(even if you're using CPU encoding)
so CPU: ππΎ GPU:ππΎ
yes
I dont have much knowledge about PCs. but could i just buy it and replace the GPU with a better one?
IK i can just add ram
I don't want to sound rude, but this discord is mostly for supporting SE tools, not for PC hardware troubleshooting, but we do share some info
"If you have any questions feel free to ask in #helpdesk-twitch or #helpdesk-youtube"
You can go to #general-chat though ;.;
This is StreamElements discord server. So these support channels are about the Tools provided by SE, buddy π
and what Alice said ‴
im asking about a PC so I can stream
it dosent say to ask questions in the General chat tho?
general chat is general talk about memes, PC parts, reddit, google, cooking and so on
why do u have a general chat on a stream based server
I understand, but you are not having any troubles or in need of support with streamelements related things, that's what this chat is for but If you go to general, you can maybe get further help
Heres my quesion: Do you have problems with Streamelements bot in your twitch chat? Do you have problems with the overlay widgets? Maybe problems with the loyalty points? Perhaps timers not set up properly?
u see if i need help for SE related questions why dosent it say "If you have any questions about stream elements feel free to ask in #helpdesk-twitch or #helpdesk-youtube"
If you answer YES to all my questions, then your place is in this channel. Anything else #general-chat π
I'm sure someone will be willing to give you advice on general :D but this isn't the place for that specific topic, sorry
and yet here we are talking about non Stream element related things
see u stopped because u saw i was right xD
and again
can I help?
xD
i need some help
What do you need help with? o:
i cant import my tips from streamlabs to tream elements
Are you logged in on both at the same time?
yep
i presh start import to stream elements and have an error occurred
Click there after installing the extension
So make sure you are go to the Streamlabs site and log in
And Streamelements site and log in
Before clicking import
Also make sure it didn't import the first time, because you don't want your tips to be duplicated
ok i doit and works
Hi guys! Im switching over to Stream Elements and its has been pretty goo until I have uploaded my alerts.
I have successfully uploaded my alerts images, but when I go to emulate it, the alert comes up but its like half of the image has been cut off?
Hello, back again, my save button for the extension panel still does not work, any help? :'>
yeps
oh slobs, I highly recommend you change to obs studio
I thought you meant you uploaded images to our overlay editor
but that image on center is our overlay or just an image?
@south fog
o_O
all I see is slobs but anyway, do images look fine on the overlay editor before adding to obs?
Yep @gentle imp they look fine
ok, so when you are adding StreamElements overlay to the browser source, make sure you set size to 1920x1080
or just edit current u have there
1920x1080 or whatever resolution you set on StreamElements overlay editor
sorry kinda got lost @graceful sail with which settings are you having problem saving, I just tried and worked fine
but the extension is being worked on anyway π
alrighty, I'll just wait for the update or something :) thanks
np, should be soonβ’
any way to show twitch chat on OBS through StreamElements or do I have to use streamlabs?
Thanks @gentle imp think the problem has been fixed π
yes, there is a widget called "your twitch chat" @rigid oak
you're welcome @south fog but I do suggest dropping slobs since it uses more resources π
And go to OBS ?? @gentle imp ?
yeah obs studio
uses less resources and has less bugs, at least from what everyone says, it's what I use without any problems
just make sure to mark all browser sources to shutdown when not visible π
I'm moderator on a stream and the streamer has made me "Editor" on StreamElements now.. but when i try to access his dashboard there seems to be a lot missing :/ does anyone know whats up?
Alerts are litterally broken AF right now
@tawny pivot
2 subs several hosts and no alerts
This is being investigated
could both problems have the same cause?
I don't believe editors have access to financial data
That would require full access
I'm double checking
Yes, Editors have access to bot, media request, overlays, and activity feed but the dashboard data is unavailable because it contains financial data
Also the "Tweet" monitor isnt picking up tweets @clever mango
@wanton jetty that is a known issue. There were some recent changes with the twitter api, which reduced the calls that we are allows. We are working with twitter on this
Is GC settings meant to be this messed up :D
https://chrisis.live/s/2905183907_2.png
Media Request was never written to be compatible for this version of ground control which is why the new program is in development
Completely new media request system requires a new program
Ahh okai π
We encourage everyone to use the site until GC v2 is out
@clever mango What about the part of the dashboard that shows followers + lets you change title/game of the stream? + i can literally see any donation/tip below in the "recent events" thing so why would it be shown at one place but not the other? xd
Changing title/game of the stream requires broadcaster level Twitch permissions which is why not even full access can do that from the dashboard
You're able to see recent activities in the activity feed so that alerts can be replayed but less than full access can not see the entire history of tips/bits/subs including accumulated totals for periods such as week/month/year
But super mods can set the title and game via !setgame & !settitle 
Yes, because the chatbot is able to change the title/game with the same permissions as the broadcaster. We request that permission from the broadcaster when they connect SE with Twitch
Hello everyone

i can't solve this problem with alerts .. I can hear them 2 times .. i have only 1 scene on obs
π€
!multi
Make sure to :ballot_box_with_check: βShutdown source when not visibleβ for all browser sources (all OBS scenes). If using studio mode, uncheck βSwap Preview/Output scenes After Transitioning.β 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
what's that transition thing ? i can't find that
The transition thing is only if your using Studio Mode
and what can u exactly do with the studio mode ?
@pulsar gulch Check out this tutorial for OBSβ studio mode which allows you to preload scenes before transitioning. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W8iWsD2Lq3U
studio mode lets you preview the scene you are going to switch to before actually switching
It's awesome

every browser source regardless if your using our Overlays or SL or a random website that produces sounds
I see
it also helps to reduce CPU usage from OBS
and can i use different res on my webcam ? like different scenes with dif webcam res ?
of course
Hey guys im moderator of one channel and editor of stream element so how i will change him title in stream?
If you have supermoderation access, you can use !settitle in chat
The streamer need to add me supermoderator?
is this transition option what Dr.Disr is using switching scene ? π€
Yep @worn wedge
Yes @pulsar gulch
Full control or Bot Supervisor? @zenith widget
@worn wedge
Chat/Bot Levels
100 - viewer
250 - subscriber
300 - __regular __
500 - moderator (twitch mods automatically placed at this level)
1000 - super moderator
1500 - broadcaster
Dashboard Manager Levels (least to most access)
Bot Supervisor (can add super moderators from dashboard)
Editor
Full Access
https://i.imgur.com/s61Liry.png
@worn wedge You need to be not only Full Editor, but also a Super Moderator for the bot. https://streamelements.com/dashboard/bot/users/moderators
@pulsar gulch yes if you find a transition on the Web or do it your self you can input a Video with a Alpha channel as a transition animation
That's what you call "a stinger"
So if you Google "stinger for obs" or "transition for obs" you can find good stuff
Thank you π
No problem 
I have super moderator i write in chat !settitle but its doesnt nothing
hey there, must I have groundcontrol open to rename the bot?
@inland knoll yes
π¦
also @worn wedge that command i believe is broadcaster only the permissions will need to be changed
It should be supermod by default, but if its turned off, then it won't work
And make sure to put something after the !settitle
Where broadcaster can change that permission?
Chat commands, under default
I enable that command but cant change title again.
hi i renamed my twitch channel is there a way for me to relink stream elements to the new one?
I think all you have to do is sign out & sign back in π€
I create command but i write in stream and command dont saw at chat?what happen here?
And when im offline its ok.I choose bot at command so if im online or offline command will be ok but only in offline work
is it your stream, or someone else's stream? They might need to log back into the website to refresh the access token the bot needs
Its another stream but i have full access to him command
Greek π
lol, thats a new one. We don't have a support person for that, so I will try my best to try to help
π
Want to send you a screenshot of 1 command?maybe its my wrong and not for stream element
StreamElement's bot is not in that channel
There was no StreamElements bot in that channel
@worn wedge The bot is not in the channel, so it can't responde
It has to be joined (from the dashboard)
I dont know for what reason but he leave me π I join it i will check it π
Ok done!You support its awesome guys keep it up! π


Hi, so i added a widget for my chat. But i cant find how to change the color of the text the people send...
hello can we run commercials with stream elements bot
ok, so atm im using my Overlay through OBS, like a simple picture, just added in, was planning on adding it to the streamelements overlay, but every single time i try the overlay wont pop in in the correct size... any tips?
Is it not showing correct in the editor, or in OBS
@tranquil snow Please connect your Twitch and/or YouTube channel with Discord by going to β Settings and then Connections here in Discord.
@weary mist like the image pops in, the box for the image is 1920x1080, but the image is hella small, should i just over scale it until it fits?
If its showing up super small, making it scale will just cause it to be super pixilated
It means something weird happened with the upload, or the format of the file isn't getting uploaded correctly
my guess then is the uploading problem, cuz if i use the image directly in obs, it scales perfectly, but SE is giving me a hard time atm 
have you tried setting the size to the image size in SE? I have an overlay with a 1920x1080 image that is used for my window and camera frame, and it fits perfect if i set the size correctly
yeah it is 1920x1080 in the settings, but the image itself is not filling out the "box" completely
which it did in obs ...
Im 100% that this is an easy fix, but my mind is just buggy atm xD
If you want to DM me the image, I can try on my end
I'm getting an error message when I try to access streamelements.com connected to my twitch account.
I'm getting this error message
im getting a error what is going on i am trying to go live for a st jude stream and ur stuff just broke
I think the site may be down, I've also just seen it
ok
was good 2 min ago and i hit live and everything gone?
same here have nothing
I don't work for SE but I'm a web developer in my day job -- usually this means a server crashed somewhere and they don't have enough redundant systems running to fix it automagically
same issue as you @slender yoke. Alerts also aren't showing up
Same here! D:
Looks like an issue on their end. I'm sure they'll discover it and act on it promptly.
Thanks for the reports all, I will go make sure all the hamsters are fed
Yep π

confirmed dashboard loading for me again, seems like a short outage
a hamster fell out of his wheel, he has been dealt with 
hamsters coming back online 
thanks for taking such speedy care of the hamsters

In the overlay editor, in the alert widget, click the β on the alert you want to add it to. you will see TTS options
Do the alert emulators allow for testing TTS settings? π
yes
nice, thanks!!

I cannot upload a photo to use for my tipping page baclround, when I click upload it does nothing.
backround*
what browser are you using?
Anybody having an issue where 'Anonymous' shows up when someone subs instead of their name?
bing
^Not a browser.
I think Bing is a search engine only?
Correct.
wait one sec
Beardo sorry I can't help, I just set up my tip page so haven't had the opportunity to see those alerts come through yet
@bleak garnet Are you sure you're using our alerts? We don't have filtering for alerts at the moment.
No, but I thought someone might have the issue.
im using Microsoft edge
That would be a StreamLabs issue, and we don't know how to fix there issues. Apologies. π
No worries. Thanks.
it just wont let me upload any format of photos, I've been trying for a while
try using chrome or another chromium based browser
ok thx
Canβt we use for streaming on xbox
@earnest grail Here is a guide on how to setup the most essential tools for streaming from your console, while using StreamElements tools without involving a Capture Card! It's easy to do, take 4 minutes to read and 10 to 15 minutes to setup!
Read all about it here: https://blog.streamelements.com/how-to-stream-on-console-7b620b1c46c3
silly question but I have sound effects in my stream store, how do i set it up so when people redeem it, it plays on stream? or is it automatic?
you need to add a store redemption widget to your overlay
I did try that but it says it only applies to stream perks. is the sound effects included in it?
yes
alrighty I'll try again, thanks!
@@narrow coyote How do i put the bot on twitch
@fast inlet from the dashboard, click join bot
does anyone know if there is a donation link to put in bio linked ot an image link streamlabs ?
https://streamelements.com/dashboard right side, bot settings, join channel
@pliant hamlet yes, if you go to tip settings from the dashboard, then open page, that is your tip link
so i stu put the atual url at the top in that says/dashboard/tipping?
once you open the page, yes
it should look like https://www.streamelements.com/YOURTWITCHUSERNAME/tip
hmm mine doesnt show that shows
oh okay thansk much

hey all just wondering if theres any news on gc v2? π very excited to see it.
@uncut dome soonβ’ 
Its still in progress. There are a few things being worked on, along with adding more hamster wheels π
i can dig hamster wheels.
hey how do viewers get to my tipping page from my stream
thank you
np
@normal igloo
I see what you did there
im confused
k
basically he copy/pasta'd what I said earilier, lol
@weary mist How dare you accuse me of such thing All my support is original content 
oh quick Q while I'm here, does the Mac version of Ground Control support the bot renaming process? π
oh nooo π¦
i already set up my tipping page but how do viewers on my stream get to it
Yeah, sorry about that. I think GCv2 will have that option @cedar lynx
@royal sorrel add a link in one of your panels
panels
plus if you have bot in channel, viewers can just type !tip or !donate
default command π
also thanks @weary mist it's part of why I ended up deciding to go SE, excited for the Mac support to arrive π
Hello, is there a way i can set my donations to auto add together if someone donates twice so it adds them together for the top donation?
@warm pulsar use the Top Tipper widget
thanks but now how do i get it to do it for the overlay
that is how you get it on the overlay.
lol thanks brainfart

How to add voice for example . ,,WADU HEKββ to follow notification ?
TTS settings in the widget
wait so how would my viewers get to my tipping page
All the alert settings are in the overlay editor. either add an alertbox (if you haven't), or you click on an existing one, and click the gear to edit certain alerts @hasty remnant
they click the link @royal sorrel either in your panel or once they use the !tip command
@royal sorrel if you go to your twitch page (logged in as you), there will be an "Edit Panel" switch/button. Click that, then add a panel with your tip information
lol sorry @weary mist I come from a dev/open-source background I'm used to trying to answer questions, hope I'm not spamming w/ my answers π
my twitch page on stream elements or twitch
Ty
@cedar lynx you are good, I just like adding as much info as I can to make sure people know what they are doing. We appreciate the help π

Hello, I have a slight little problem, I have joined the affiliate program I have added my sub alerts to my OBS and everything if I do a test sub it shows up and everything but today I have gotten a real sub and that is not showing up anywhere in stream elements not in the Ground Control app not on the website dashboard. Therefore the sub notification didn't go through to my stream any ideas why this could be?
Do you have the bot on your channel?
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
@cedar lynx yes I do
@shadow iris did you read what StreamElements said?
that is 100% related to your issue

There is always that slight chance of 0.000000001% it maybe is !affiliate info 
It was my friend who subbed so I'm asking him if he has the Post Subscriptions enabled
if you just became affiliate you will want to also make sure you have logged out of SE and log back in if you have not
!affiliate
If you recently became affiliated with Twitch and do not see Subs or Cheers on your Dashboard and Activity Feed please log out and back in so that Twitch notifies us of your new affiliate status.
Okay so I should do that for both Dashboard and Ground Control? π
just click that link i just posted
it wont
It should show any now going forward, as long as they share it via chat if they need to
there is no way to retrieve that sub, anything that reports on total number of subs should be accurate, but if SE did not have your affiliate token from twitch, that sub notification is unfortunately gone 
FeelsBadMan
I had the same thing happen with my first sub, they subbed before i could log out and back into SE
could this be the reason why a follow alert didn't show as well? π
after my affiliate?
possible, though if it was earlier today, there was some 

Is there a way to make it so streamelements bot doesn't announce when ppl follow or cheer in chat
@paper marten Yeah just turn off chat notifications
I don't want to do all of them thou
Thanks! @pine hemlock
Or what cuda said 
you were close, lol. Just needed that slight bit more detail
@weary mist 
is there anyway to set how many bits it takes to fill the bit cup?
no, it just depends on the size of the cup
aww damn ok thanks
i resized it earlier but can't figure out how i did it x,x
go to the change cup area
i only see certain cups / cup position there
oh yeah was zoomed in apparently lol thanks
seems it fills up with 1500 bits but also like 4-5 50 bit cheers, so won't work for my idea
I am trying to help a friend with an alert problem he is facing. All of his alerts work but the cheers one. I made a new overlay to test it and the problem still persisted. I have no idea what is causing this
Hello everyone! I am working on the tip cup. Once the cup fills up, I would like to have an emote slam down and clear the othersin the cup. Is this possible? I;d love to have the emote for followers be the heave emote that breaks through the others in the cup. Otherwise, any new emotes going to the cup just bounce off the top and fall out. Thx for the advice!
Whats the JWT token?
@digital narwhal what do you mean by not working not showing up at all or not showing a new image?
I don't believe you can trigger that without a large tip/cheer that would impact the other emote/symbols more. @crimson granite
@pseudo tapir here https://streamelements.com/dashboard/account/channels click show secrets in the top right
It's the account ID?
Alright thanks @dense jackal !
@dense jackal It is not showing or playing anythin regardles of the amount emulated
hmmm whats the account username @digital narwhal
Hey guys! I have the extension but its not loading on my panels, i uninstalled and installed it again several times
What can I do?
@dense jackal is seanmike
@craggy night have a look at #270206314561404928
you guys are using chrome right @digital narwhal
yes
thanks @narrow coyote
hey, im running into an issue where i am getting multiple notification sounds on obs from my alerts. im really confused. I have all scenes set to disabled when not visible and stuff.
can anyone help me???
@hardy jackal Make sure to :ballot_box_with_check: βShutdown source when not visibleβ for all browser sources (all OBS scenes). If using studio mode, uncheck βSwap Preview/Output scenes After Transitioning.β 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 thank you!
@digital narwhal Seems to be something specific with his account I sent it to our devs to look into
I reached 3 average viewers today but my achievement is stuck at 67% and has been stuck there for a few days
It's a monthly thing I believe. Just keep going 
@dense jackal I don't see anything xD I know I'm probably missing it as I'm streaming and trying to do it hahah.
hey Does anyone know if player . me Is able to function with SE?
got a question if anyone could assist. trying to setup redemptions however im not showing that they will be shown as an alert, and the store redemptions alert is something completely separate
If you want to use a stream perk, or sound store item, you will want to add a store redemption widget to your overlay
though that does not show any specific image pertaining to a specific alert, just a generic one. how do i have a specific redemption have a certain image different than other redemptions?
use a stream perk, that will show the image and play the sound that is specified in the store item, in the store redemption widget
I'm manually putting in someones donation, but the system isn't seeing it, what should I do?
ok so store redemptions show only in it's certain widget. got it and i appreciate the description.
@buoyant temple have you marked the tip as imported? If not, please do so
gotcha ok, ill give that a shot! (fixed it all, added all donations in via import, and found the tabs to correct incorrect totals since it was showing the wrong total)
@dense jackal nvm LUL got it
?
Can someone please help me set up my stream really quick?
anyone??
what do you specifically need help with?
Just like overlays and how to set it up to where it would look some what decent.
Have you watched all the introduction/tutorial videos yet?
yes, but i cant seem to set it up right
where are you stuck? what's your setup so far?
Hello @prisma hill Have you seen already our Overlays tutorial?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KDvLynUqXI4&t=61s
Tutorial #1 - Adding StreamElements Overlays to OBS Studio ----------------------------------------------------------------------- π StreamElements π -------...
No i haven't, but I am confused on how to configure the panels and everything.
@prisma hill are you talking about Twitch settings, streaming software like OBS, or StreamElements?
@prisma hill Twitch's official help guide for Panels: https://help.twitch.tv/customer/portal/articles/2416760-how-to-edit-info-panels
@cedar lynx Honestly, I'm new to streaming so probably everything. I have recorded videos with OBS before, but never streamed.
@prisma hill Best way to learn to setup your twitch panels(under your stream) is the above guide from the bot
Also a good watch of this: https://strms.net/welcome - these videos will help you setup all the essentials you'll need and/or want
Afterwards its just placing your Twitch Stream Key in OBS and hitting that "Start Streaming" button for the 1st time
Great resources, thanks KeiZar

If you've recorded videos before with OBS, then your settings should be good to go. But you will need to adjust the encoder most likely and especially the bitrate.
@zenith widget What would I set the encoding and bitrate to?
usually if your PC is decent - 3000 bitrate at output 720p 30fps is a nice way to start strreaming
let me pull the encoders
so the x264 encoder will use your CPU to encode the stream(but still some GPU power) and if your CPU is a beast then your good to go. If your CPU isn't that good, then use NVENC(or the other option as on my OBS I don't see NVENC, due to integrated GPU) but this will place more resource usage on your GPU
So try around stream for 1-2 hours, watch your VOD for quality and fix as you go. 1st week of streaming(1st 5 to 7 total streams) you'll be busy adjusting a lot of things. Get a friend for that Quality Assurance
@zenith widget Thank you.

@zenith widget If I have any trouble, may I PM you?
Its better to ask here, so that other people can help. Do note that this is StreamElements Discord and this is #helpdesk-twitch . This means that we prefer helping out with problems related to our Tools. If you have any other kind of problem its best to talk in #general-chat .
We don't mind helping even if you're having problems with OBS it self, as we may know a thing or 2, but if the problem is over our heads, we may send you over to the OBS discord.
@prisma hill ^^^
Hello all! Is it counter productive to have streamlabs OBS and then streamelements? I am very ignorant in this currently. Needing to beef up my computer before I go live, but I wanted to have everything ready on the stream so I am being somewhat productive.
@patent plover If you're struggling for resources while streaming, best bet its SLOBS and our animated overlays. There are 2 ways you can go about:
- Switch to a static overlay from us
- Switch to (vanilla) OBS
Imho best to switch to vanilla OBS 
@zenith widget Okay. Then what? I just want a clean simple stream to start with.
then press "Stream Now" π
If you switch over to normal OBS, don't forget settings and sources and then go stream.
so how does one unlik there twitch on stream elements?
remove the bot you mean?
no i mean delete their account so they can start again
with the same account?
well i have a problem
and itr says that my account is already linkded with another account
how are you logging in?
I cant edit/configure the stream elements app on my channel;
that too
@lone kettle are you talking about ground control?
disclaimer: I don't work for SE I just am handy with tech stuff quite often so doing my best to help
@livid ingot Are you talking about editing overlays?
No
Panels?
The mobile app?
ok nvm
This
i just need to know why i can go online
when i stream
can't
also i has the same problem
@lone kettle It sounds like may need to update your Twitch your stream key in OBS or whatever program you're using to stream
@livid ingot I'm not 100% but think that's part of the recent update they pushed and they're working out some bugs that started last night, it may resolve itself shortly
ok cool
Hi, is this an appropriate channel to talk in if I have a question about uploading sub emotes?
I know it's not exactly SE related
no idea, but go ahead for now? haha I just went through my getting my first emote published so maybe I can help
The support channel is for SE related, but we can go to #general-chat and i can help you (: @normal barn
Oh sorry
there, someone official has spoken, sorry!! I'm a floater trying to help π
you have a Role, that's fancy enough for me π π
Blue god 
@livid ingot We announced about a maintenance break, working on improving the feature. So the extension wont work properly atm
fist pumps -- I was right!!
Ok cool, Thanks attack, Ill wait till i sort out my new Schelude
Thought it said streamelements dont take any from tipping???
@silent hill That is correct streamelements dont take any from tips
So whrn it says i recieved a tip of 13 usd but only got 12???
Paypal might though, so check on your Paypal the amount they took
what alice Said π
Dont say they took any just that igot 12 not 13
No problem
Did you get a confirmation? and did the money leave your paypal?
yep
And they are using StreamElements as their tipping right?
yep
Maybe he is not using the overlay? did you ask him to check if he got it?
If he is using the tipping page but not any overlay, the money will go to his account but there won't be any notification on the stream
https://streamelements.com/murelaxfxx ...uh heres his stream....
Yeah, ask him if he is using the streamelement's overlay, but if you donated it will be in his paypal account already
so as i was saying
And if so, he can just replay the event when he's live next to give you credit π
twitch is fine but SE app on twitch and SE its self wont say online when i stream
Yep, what anne says, just communicate with him β€
reapo are you talking about the extension? because that's under maintenance right now
kinda
The streamelement's website has a delay to show that you are live
but i mostly mean the website
But you shouldn't worry about that
by an hour?
Everything should still work perfectly
