okay but that is the link in my dashboard "open my stats" button
I am not sure on this, because your panel extension is pulling from one page, and your button is sending you to another 
haven't seen this issue before, lol
oh nice, the confusion is total xD
and I clearly need a new keyboard -.-
should i create a ticket some where to have this looked into or?
I poked devs
Help please, how do I add the overlay for the "last sub" "last follower" last donator"?
In the overlay editor you can add these as widgets in the blue line by selecting "widgets".
When you select https://streamelements.com/dashboard/overlays and selet the overlay to edit where you want it to be added, in the blue line at the top it says widgets.
I have to create a blank overlay and then edit it right?
yeah. Or use an overlay of the galery.
ty man ❤
After this you add the overlay to your OBS:
@bright salmon 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
Help please my Stream is lagging....what are the best settings for me?
@lament blade Please don't spam in multiple channels. Are you using OBS.Studio?
Best to mess around is with the Auto-config in OBS.Studio. Top Menu on OBS.Studio -> Click Tools -> Auto-Configuration Wizard
Then follow the steps to help OBS.Studio determine what may be the best settings to try.
Thank you for help! Ill try this one out
No problem 
so ive added a win counter and cant figure out how to reset it
using the command share
!editcount wins 0
doesn't reset it?
You're not dumb.
Glad to help 
Hey, im switching to using OBS for an elgato capture (instead of using the standard elgato software that comes with the product) anyone have any recommended tutorials, or can just quickly give me a how to list for setting up my StreamElements overlay and integrating a webcam into it?
I’m streaming using a PS4 and elgato HD60 to a gamin laptop, if that helps
@worn hazel 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
As for the Webcam: You'll just need to add the Source in OBS.Studio: "Video Capture Device".
So you can select your webcam
Can some one helps me white overlays on twitch for the Xbox one
if you stream directly from console, you cant use overlays
@hybrid ivy 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
That's sad that you can't use overlays on console
Maybe someday when Consoles have the power to do so.
Yea
Hoop so
One more question how can I use a build in webcam on twitch (on consol)?
Hey a friend is trying to use the SE chatbot with the !watchtime command, yet it always says "Pixeal has spent 0 seconds watching gersean", does someone know a solution for this problem? Loyalty settings are enabled already
@hybrid ivy I think only if you're using the Kinect.
Have you been watching your friend live for more than 10 minutes after loyalty being enabled?
@lusty shard
not after implementing the chatbot i think
10 minutes of watchtime are given to those in chat when the loyalty points are handed out (every 10 minutes). Therefore, loyalty must be enabled for watchtime to work properly. There is no direct link between watchtime and all-time points. It can’t be calculated from the amount of all-time points a user has because subs may earn points at a faster rate and !bonus all command increases all-time points for users in chat at that time. Giving points to a single user does NOT affect all-time, only when giving to all in chat.
ty!
No prob 
how do i get my custom fonts to sync to stream elements overlays?
@empty anchor Steps:
- Install the font on the streaming PC or choose a pre-installed windows font.
- In the overlay widget settings, select Text Settings
- Enable Custom Font
- Type the name of the font as it appears in the windows font directory (This is usually C:\Windows\Fonts)
Note: After installing fonts, the browser and OBS must be restarted for the font to appear.
Having these problems can anyone help me? Adding the obs logs from last stream also.
anyone know how to remove the vertical black bars at the left and right side of my stream?
thanks
does any1 now how to add a stream elements bot to a discord server?
there is no discord server bot yet
How do I setup alerts
That will be in the Overlay Editor. If you haven't seen the YouTube Tutorial for that yet: Here is the link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8LVRd2X4HvU
Learn how to customize your alerts and setup different alerts variations with StreamElements Alertbox ----- Overlay Manager guide: https://youtu.be/X7XrDdRE7...
hi, the section below the main diplay the part that shows you your scenes and mic and desktop audio isn't showing up for me and I'm unsure how to get it back up, anyone know how to fix this?
In OBS - View > Docks
Thanks a lot!
Hello guys I was wondering what's exactly SE.Pay and what's the diff with / without it ?
Where do i test alerts?
@rapid zenith To test/emulate alerts, hover over the blue bell at the bottom of the overlay editor. From here you can select the type of event and the amount to test.
I hit a quadrillion points and you guys reset me
reset you where?
hey so basically i downloaded streamelements obs.live like a few hours ago to see if my stream quality on it would be good. it was bad so now im trying to delete the application. i dont know why but i cant delete it right now can someone please help <3
speak to the streamer or her mods, se dont reset point
Can u help me with my issue
hey can somebody help me with a small thing
@craggy lava Welcome to the support channel! Please let us know how we can assist you today and a member of the support staff will be with you as soon as possible.
@elder sorrel you say 1920x1080 it worked but i want to stream only at 720p not 1080p any ideas?
anyone help with the audio not coming through my capture card?
Then let the magic happen
thanks im an idiot lol 😄 @elder sorrel
Ah. I'm not too verse with SLOBs since it's not OBS.Studio.
Is audio set to default device?
does sombody know how to i make donations non refundable
Every service adds that into the terms of use. That doesn't stop people from filing chargebacks with their card/bank, but gives you a way to dispute it when it does come.
i have the money to go to my paypal
whats the best way to make it non refundable or more protected
There's no way to prevent it completely, especially when using Paypal, but there's settings like requiring login to tip that help you fight those cases.
"Secure" has nothing to do with it.
People don't go through G2A to chargeback. It's with their card or bank.
my question is where should i put the money in paypal or in g2a
One of the things you can do to properly, "secure" yourself against this is by listing in your bio/descriptions, that "All Donations are Non-Refundable" and obviously, only make exceptions for things like: "Someone donates 500 instead of 50".
Thats good enough, most banks will look at that then drop any chargeback requests unless you agree with it for a reason
It's also covered by the Terms of Service as linked at the bottom, so you don't even need that.
Most people don't read those anyway lets be honest 😉
hello
hi o/
Not reading doesn't mean you're exempt from them.
i really need help :(
@glad gust Welcome to the support channel! Please let us know how we can assist you today and a member of the support staff will be with you as soon as possible.
I know but most people don't even know its a thing in your TOS, so they assume that because the streamer hasn't listed it, that they can do it
@strong kernel and @frosty charm ty for the help
appo
Hi there 😃
i was setting some things up on the website
and i wanted to know will the bots get to mt twitch stream on my xbox
As long as the bot has joined the channel that you stream from on Xbox then the bot should sit in your chat 😃
The bot works whether you're streaming with a computer or a potato. It's cloud-based and doesn't rely on your hardware.
Nice dude 😄 Hmu with your link I'll pop by for some streamer support 😛
ya know the themes
Yes we know the themes 😃
will that show on my xbox?
Not if your streaming directly from the console itself but if you've wired up a capture device like a Elgato HD60 for example, then you can use OBS on your pc to add the overlay as a browser source!
im streaming on console manageing things on ma phone
Then I'm afraid to say that your overlay won't show on your stream while you are live from your Xbox.
Consoles are potato and can't use themes on their own.
True

also how do i know if my tipping system is on
You'll need to add your tipping page URL to your Twitch Panel
ok so i do that when i start the stream
With your own image or can use one of the images we provide for the tipping page
You can use https://streamelements.com/dashboard/tipping-settings to set up and customize your tipping page.
ok
so i just downloaded and imported everything into streamelements.. I am trying to make items for points to be spent and one is give everyone in the chat 100 points.. how would i use the !givepoints command to give everyone or is there a way to automate this throught he setup of the store item?
well that was easy enough lol
btw u said u wanted to see my first stream appo?
@strong kernel couldn't you set a timer for the bot to do it say every 20 mins?
Timers can't make the bot use its own commands.
Damn xd
but what i am saying is if someone redeems that part of the store !redeem rain is there a way for it to auto do it or do i have to type that in the chat?
A stream store item cannot trigger a command.
ok good to know
so i just tried it and came back with %! is that because i am not live and have no one in my chat?
I'll be honest, came here with a small problem of my own, found a solution right after I joined, then started helping others xD
i am loving streamelements so far
lets say a user redeemed this perk and i put in givepoints all 100 would i have to have a balance or does it just do it
I made the switch to SE from SLOBS about 2 months ago and I'm loving the versatility of it compared to SLOBS! OBS.Live running off of standard OBS Studio just makes it less bulky and easy on the hardware too!
More Ram for gaming!
@hollow horizon Right, sorry, !addpoints all 100
ahh ok cause give points is from user to user
Is there anyway to shuffle the default playlist on media request feature?
would be lovely
wonderful ty
No problem 
Hello guys!
I'm trying to import my alert from SL and find some problems
For example, the first one. I see and hear my alert in overlay editor:
But in obs I hear only sound of alert, no visual information
I tried to re-create this layer, re-run obs, re-create browser source. But nothing helps
(even if this source is on top in obs so nothing on it)
The second problem. I have a lot of variations of sub-alerts. If I press "Emulate Sub Event" - I can hear sound in editor, but I dont see gif. If I press option "Emulate Sub Event - 1 month" - it gives me sound and gif. Sooo alert works only for this option - 1 month. And I've already checked settings - I can see gif there and all this variations:
is this where I ask for help?
@restive smelt Welcome to the support channel! Please let us know how we can assist you today and a member of the support staff will be with you as soon as possible.
I need help with the Stream element side, ran into a problem i've never ran into before.
well i need help too with a small thing
@craggy lava Welcome to the support channel! Please let us know how we can assist you today and a member of the support staff will be with you as soon as possible.
Guys, with obs.live i cant show new obs 23 twitch's stream info and stats, they just gone from my Dock tab
anyone knows about this?
In OBS you can go to -> settings -> stream -> disconnect -> connect account. After that the panels are back.
You might have to do this after every restart or profile change of OBS. We are working on a fix.
ye, i noticed about reloging, if u are working on it ill wait 😄
@copper wolf i setup sr to be by tip to i have to setup a tip page diferrent from the donation one
thank u
I don't think so, but I am not 100% srue on this @craggy lava
hm can u ask somebody pls?
It's the same tipping page.
so how do i know when is a songrequest or not
When it's added to your queue.
Not available for a call at this time.
my question is how to people say that it is a songrequest on my tip page
When you've enabled paid media request there's a section of the tipping page that lets them enter in their video.
If I’m using an elgato and I have a 15 mpbs upload speed (peak is 20 but it fluctuates so let’s just say 15) what bitrate, FPS, and resolution should I be using. My computer is a decent gaming laptop and everyone is LAN connected. Streaming from a PS4 gameplay
I have a question about custom commands. Can I DM someone about it?
@midnight plaza Welcome to the support channel! Please let us know how we can assist you today and a member of the support staff will be with you as soon as possible.
@worn hazel For the best OBS support, please join their Official Discord @ discord.gg/obsproject
basically in nightbot, i have a !multi and !multiset (my mods use multiset to set the multi command)
!multi --Current Multi-Stream Link: https://www.lurker.tv/multi/prefireztv/ Make sure you follow this article to count as a view when using chrome! https://bit.ly/2lYJLEN
!multiset --edit !multi Current Multi-Stream Link: https://www.lurker.tv/multi/$(channel)/$(query) Make sure you follow this article to count as a view when using chrome! https://bit.ly/2lYJLEN
How can i make this work in streamelements?
Take a look in #command-share. There is an example.
having trouble with centering the text of the alert over the gif. it stays up top.. is this a glitch? and yes i did save.
On the left there are layout options. Try the option column.
with the layouts have that on top of image is there an even advaned column that im not finding?
Just to be sure: You want the text to be in the middle of your "You rock" gif?
exactly @elder sorrel
Go to Text Settings -> Advanced I believe where you should see the margins.
As from there should be able to enter the number to level the text at. You can play the alert & change the number of the margin to see where it'll be.
oh ok. ty. thought it would center like streamlabs as in the image.. ty for the help and info.. greatly appreciative 😄
No worries! Just a lot of options to work with so everyone is happy
new to SE

ok i am not sure if i did this right. so I made the multiset so my mods can do it, this way viewers can pull the multistream via !multi did i do this right?
!cmd edit multi Check out the multi stream: https://kadgar.net/live/$(channel)/$(1:)
the !multi is set to Check out the multi stream: https://kadgar.net/live/$(channel)/$(1:)
u r awesome @elder sorrel worked like a charm . ty again
@midnight plaza
You have to create one time this commad using: !cmd add !multi Check out the multi stream: https://multistre.am/$(channel)/<streamername> in chat.
Then your mods can use !cmd edit !multi Check out the multi stream: https://multistre.am/$(channel)/<streamername>
So this way you create one time the multi link and your mods can always edit it the way it should be displyes. <streamername> should be replaced by the name of your friends channel name.
ok let me try
@rugged forge same question as BloodyXellos. Scroll up here
hi is there a way to get an welcome message if user comes in the chat ?
does anyone know how I can limit names to a certain area? names are going off my overlay :/
No, we don't have a greeting feature.
i am failing miserably lol
@sacred narwhal Greetings actually are shown to be counterproductive and drive people away. That's why the minimum for a reaction is a follow.
@midnight plaza What is the issue? What is not working?
@strong kernel ok but where i can activate that ?
Chat alerts module in the Modules section.
ok thx @strong kernel
it isnt editing the !multi when i set !multiset to !cmd edit !multi Check out the multi stream: https://kadgar.net/live/$(channel)/$(1:)
typically my mods would enter !multiset demonicfury508 and it would edit the !multi command so the chat can run that command
basically i want !multiset for my mods to edit the !multi and the chat would use !multi
You can't create a command to edit the multi link. You have to edit the multi itself, by "creating/editing" a new answer.
@strong kernel cant find the welcome message ?
@zinc kraken you can edit the box of the widget you need. if, for example, latest subscriber is too big, you can edit and click/drag the box to alter the size. the text will stay inside the box
As stated, there is no welcome message.
alright thank you
@sacred narwhal nethyr was telling you that the minimum for a welcome message would be to follow. you then asked where to activate that and he gave you the answer. in the chat alert module.
@torpid estuary yes but where?
read my message again
you are looking at it. when someone follows you, the message will be put out that you can see in the "message" part of your screenshot
@torpid estuary yes but i mean not if someone follow but they come back in the chat then i get message in the chat welcom back (User)
as nethyr told you two times before, and i did also: there is no welcome message
the bot only interacts with the user when an action happens, like a follow, a sub, a cheer, a donation, etc
@midnight plaza
just typing in chat will not trigger the bot to greet a user
@midnight plaza
@swift mist But with this your viewer can't use the !multi to show the actual multi link.
or did i misunderstand what you wanted @midnight plaza
no that is true if you want that you would need to edit some static command
ah okay so i misread it. basically he wants an alias to edit a command
interesting thought
@torpid estuary edit the whole alertbox?
@midnight plaza i think you should do a post on the community board with the idea where the bot can run commands. Then we can upvote it and see if at some point it will get implemented
@torpid estuary well how can I make all names fit D:
is there a way to limit characters or something
you can edit the box to not overlap your overlay graphic. names that are longer will then be cut off
hmm
well the way I currently have it set up is my alertbox with my alert/text also has something pop up
so if I resize it, it messes it up
so the text in the alerts of your alert box is too long for some names?
can you provide a screenshot of the problem you have?
sure
one sec
so for example
this name fits fine
but bigger names
go off of it
:/
thats my issue
if I resize the text
it will resize the new follower thing as well
just make the text scroll?
how?
2 sec
ty
Can’t get audio through elgato and OBS? No gameplay audio but mic audio ok, any help?
uh
I don't even see that setting? @swift mist
under follow alert, under text settings?
text settings are at the bottom left you have to expand it @zinc kraken
also it's a custom widget
maybe it isn't there for alerts :/
@worn hazel rightclick your elgato in OBS - properties - configure video
make sure "audio input" is set to "1/hdmi audio"
2 sec let me check @zinc kraken
@zinc kraken you are right, not able to do it with alerts, sry for the inconvience
@swift mist @twin sentinel thanks guys.
I’ll use nightbit for that one command set. I’ll post on the forum for an upvote.
i guess you could do some custom CSS that might do the trick, but i have no clue how to write CSS so i can't help with that
Yeah. It’ll be easier to just use nightbot lol
@midnight plaza I'll do an upvote when it gets posted in the Ideas channel here on discord
Hey guys tell me if I am in the wrong spot but I have a Overlay from SE that when I add it as a browser source in SLOBS it is just blank. Wehn I refresh the Cache on the source it just goes solid white.
We can't support any issues with our overlays in SLOBS as we don't have the tools to troubleshoot their software.
We recommend using OBS Studio with our plugin, OBS.Live.
It is a browser source so it shouldn't be any different no matter what platform you use. But I understand you don't want to fix stuff on the competitions platform.
Actually, browser source coding can be and is different between softwares.
Xsplit's works differently as well.
Ahh I figured the URL is the URL but that makes sense
dropping 7k frames again, any help?
@turbid kestrel Can you please provide a log from your last stream. In OBS go to Help > Log Files > Upload Last Log File. Once this is complete, please provide the link to the log file.
my bitrate is at like 6k....
Can somebody help me? I have a big problem for about 1 year for now... When i stream Fortnite for example i get slight fps drops in some places but it is never dropping below 60fps the game looks so jittery and like not 60fps even if the counter says 120 or 240 no matter if i lock it or not... There is no difference. This happens in almost every game like Apex or PUBG and more.
@turbid kestrel could you try set the profile of h.264 to high
how would i go about doing that? im new to the streamelements obs
in settings under output set it up like this
as i'm running the same CPU and GPU as you we should get similar result when testing
this is my usage while streaming my desktop
see the intersecting red squares
yours should be about the same
+/- 5%
checking it now
your CPU usage could be a bit higher as you have scenes and i don't so please test with empty scenes irst
just setup a new scene profile
it will only affect your scenes and not the stream profile
just add your desktop to the empty scene and that is it
just so it hase something else than a black screen to encode
still dropping frames
that is no scenes? other than a desktop?
yes no scenes. just dekstop
okay time to look somewhere else then to make sure windows and drivers arent at fault. Have you check that windows is fully updated and have no updates waiting as this can slow down a system. If you have upgraded your gpu driver have you restarted your system? (nvidia released one today)
i actually just got done doing the nvidia one
and i tried going live earlier and i was dropping frames so i checked windows for updates and didnt have any
please do a restart. i got a BSOD today after upgrade and i forgot to restart and started streaming
thought so, 10 years as windows sysadmin at enterprise level gives you a 6'th sense
updates still installing, sorry for the delay
it's okay but i'll have to go soon, it's 3.40 in the morning and i have work in 5 hours
well maybe we can pick up tomorrow, dont wanna keep u. probably wont stream tonight since this is going on
sure 😃
So, with the addition of media requests. How does that factor in with Twitch and Copyright issues if any (I am still new to streaming but trying to make sure I cover all grounds as to not get in trouble with them lol)
if you have mod, make sure they know just a bit about copyright and do moderation of media request, that is if you want to say on the straight and narrow road without any potential problems. The worst I've seen is my audio being cut form some videos. @keen forge
^
hm ok. So just have a mod watch it and only allow videos if they are free of copyright?
yep, make sure they watch videos of fairuse as that is important (your audio will still get muted on VODs)
well for the alert box I have, what would someone suggest I do for different sized names? https://clips.twitch.tv/VibrantFitAlligatorHotPokket
@keen forge this is waht happens if you have copyrighted music in your video 😃 and i'm affiliate and i know full time streamers who use it and they are partners and they haven't head anything for it from twitch
but time for me to go, have a great time everyone
Ok now my streamelement overlays are not giving me audio when I stream through OBS? The visual still comes up but no alert volume? I know it’s something. OBS though. Any suggestions?
When setting up a donation goal it doesn't show the total at 0, it shows it at all donations so far. it only shows the correct amount so far after someone donates. How do i fix this?
Regarding the media requests. Is there a way for me personally to put a whole youtube playlist (all copyright free) into the loader so that it loads them all, or do I have to do it song by song to post them?
Set it as your backup playlist in the settings.
now, there is a "playlist" already created on youtube. Can I set that whole playlist as the backup?
I thought it was a playlist unique to SE, meaning that I would have to upload videos one by one
just a misunderstanding. thank you!
No problem.
will it shuffle the songs automatically?
No shuffle.
do users still gain points when my channel is offline?
if so is there a way to shut that off
No. Online only.
is the stream elements overlay not compatible with Streamlabs OBS? Can I only use my store perks on either Xsplit or OBS Live?
Technically it's supposed to but we don't have the tools to troubleshoot their software for them.
So we always recommend OBS Studio with OBS.Live.
ok. cuz I literally worked all night making my store and I can't set the overlay as a browser source. which is werid bc the test alert works. it just won't show up when a perk is redeemed
I generally use OBS live but for some reason the new update has been crashing
i dont generally mind. since it's fairly new I was just so excited because i worked so hard on my perks lol
I personally prefer OBS Live over Streamlabs OBS
it's just my backup
Hello, so I attempted to stream through remote play and Stream elements OBS, I checked my twitch to make sure it all looked good and the entire time it was a green screen.
It all looks good on remote play and all looks good on stream elements but for some reason, it was acting up on the actual twitch website
@gusty holly For the best OBS support, please join their Official Discord @ discord.gg/obsproject
Hey there!
How do I go about changing my follower / subscriber sound?
For when someone follows or something
I would suggest to watch this video guide we have for the alert widget: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8LVRd2X4HvU&t=0s&list=PLCDDKlFdScbEwdx5AntcQIS1InkFJwHtv&index=6
Hi! Tried to stream on OBS studio and the game capture screen preview is showing nothing but black
Any solutions?
Make sure you add the game you want to stream.
Yes
Still a black screen :(
@willow bay For the best OBS support, please join their Official Discord @ discord.gg/obsproject
Okay I'll try
Hi everyone! Wasn't sure where to post this question, but has TTS for the alert box been disabled? I have everything active but TTS is not playing back any of the messages submitted. Thanks!
👀 you again?
Have you checked your variations?
Let me just torment you in your chat 
LOL
(for everyone, just a friendly banter with @boreal jungle
)
❤
Fixed 
Thank you again!

Soo, ye, I dunno
Ok, so here it is.
Issue was - the alert widget was hidden.
I knew that the outline of the widget seemed a bit off until i actually looked at this and saw that it was actually hidden.
Because I saved the overlay when i changed it to shown.
o
in order to actually show it on OBS>
Hackerman
Testing out
I can see that 😃
@zenith widget rly, hackerman
What was the problem?
Is this okay, that I dont see preview in overlay editor?)

Can I set up two different profiles with diofferent stream keys?
For OBS - yes - thats the idea behind the profiles
They look the same? When I make 2. Maybe i need to sign out or something
Especially with the new integration you can have 2 different twitch accounts logged in
AWESOME!!! Thanks
question i have ground app installed on streamelements you have to use the alerts but i use tippiestream for the donations because streamelements dont use i deal pay so i have connect tippiestream to streamelements is the alert coming up if someone donate on the url from tippiestream?
There is no way to get a alert when a donation is made through tipeee in our system. We can't get this info about thte donation from tipeee to show.
Do we have the option for scripts or something that allows us to assign a soundeffect, etc. for when VIPs/MODs & Subs show up in chat?
(See the events function in StreamLabs chatbot)
No.
Damn. Guess that's something to be added to the list then.
Its part of the ideas board already.
I thought as much
👌
Hope to see it added soon.
(I don't want any StreamLabs stuff on my PC.
)
there's only a few of us requesting that, the more upvote it the higher chance of it getting done @pale elk
hello not sure if im in the right channel with this question but can anybody help me setup my timers? / what is the best setup for serval timers ? i want them to be posted in order i added them ever x minutes but for some resason they dont get randomized ( srry english not my main langueage so not sure if my point is clear XD ) anyone got an suggestions ?
Is there a way to trigger videos on stream by command? - So like a User types !video1 in Chat and that Video appears on screen. 🤔 🙂
@hybrid heart Check pinned messages in this channel, it goes into detail about how to set up timers 😃
ty
@signal dawn I'm not aware of any way to do that via the default widgets, the Store Redemptions widget only allows for GIFs. I had a look in #widget-share but couldn't find anything custom already mentioned but perhaps ask in #dev-chat if there's a custom way to do it
So I have a slight problem with streamelements. Whenever I turn it on it cuts all sound to my headphones. Why is this?
So i have an issue whenever i try to go live i get video code error #5000
@delicate leaf using obs?
@normal igloo yes i am
@hazy depot turn what on media request?
@delicate leaf For the best OBS support, please join their Official Discord @ discord.gg/obsproject
Hw would I turn it on?
Okay so last night I tried to stream on streamelements and had a green screen. This morning the same thing so I downloaded streamlabs and everything worked fine. I would like to stick with streamelements, I just would like it fixed please.
@gusty holly What OBS Studio version are you on?
I believe the latest edition of streamelements OBS
It updated last night and since the update, it’s been that way
The OBS Studio version is on the top left and the OBS.Live version is in the lower right. Can you tell me the versions please?
OBS 23.0.1 and OBS.live version 19.3.2.344

I have imported streamlabs into my streamelements which is located on the left side of my screen, but when I click the circle arrow to replay the notification it doesn't do anything. Do I have to import something else to let it make a sound and show up on my screen/stream?
@balmy magnet Have you added the imported Overlay to OBS Studio?
@balmy magnet 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
Ok Thanks 😄
I have another question. I have imported the alertbox settings from streamlabs OBS but I do not want the old images and sounds on there, how do I delete them?
There is an overlay with the imported alertbox. Edit the alertbox widget in the overlay as you wish.
Ok so hopefully someone can help me out but I'm looking for a way to have a picture of my sponsor with my code come up on my stream every 30 mins or so for like 10 seconds. I couldn't find any timer I can customize on stream elements and then my journey got even more confusing when I looked in obs. Any thoughts?
There is a widget called "Asset rotator/slideshow" which will fit your needs hopefully.
How do I reduce the buffering from my stream
hello
Think I saw something about it but I forgot
im not a helper soz
you can have a look here @blissful ravine https://stream.twitch.tv/encoding/
adjust to your system specs and internet connection
Adjust it in obs?
Does reducing fps help?
shouldn't make much of a diff, that's more for you

Thank you
Hello everyone! I just signed up to ask a question about Twitch and OBS performance. Really glad to see a Discord for this kind of thing.
hello
How can I configure a custom command so that it plays a custom recorded sound?
You can create a store item, add the widget "store redemptions" to your Overlay and create a custom command with the variable ${redemption <itemname>}
I think I got it, let me try
It is not working
I created the item on the store, uploaded my file to it
and set the command with this:
What did I do wrong?
@twin sentinel ?
anyone?
Have you added the widget to your overlay?
And add the ${redemption Olha_o_chat} as Response, not as Regex.
I have the widget, yes
nope, not working
My overlay has store redemption:
My stream store item :
Custom command:
the first message is as it was before, the second is with your change, I cleared the field for expression
what am I doing wrong?
Sorry. My fault. The variable is: ${redeem <itemname>}
now the issue is the item name
does it have to be between <> ?
${redeem <Olha_o_chat>}
that is what I tried
with <> and without
what am I doing wrong now?
@twin sentinel ?
it has to be without the <>.
I am not sure if "_" are allowed in the itemname. Please try a more simple name of the item please.
nevermind
it was the item command
it was different from item name
thank you
is there a way to suppress the response?
like:
that response, for this specific item
?
You can try to supress it in the module settings. Module: chat alerts.
for that specific item?
I think this is for every item then.
Ok. Then you can't disable this message I think. I am sorry.
so, since the option exists, that is a bug?
This is the answer for the default redeem command I think.
yes, and I would like to suppress it, since the alert box has a way to do it, I imagine it would be a bug that it does not do it, correct?
I don't think you can supress this answer. But you can submit an idea at our ideasBoard: https://strms.net/ideas
My bot is non responsive after removing/rejoining channel multiple times please help!
@heavy lily You have a custom bot name enabled?
where did you enable it? via OBS.Live or Ground control?
Yes, please try to disable this, to see if the bot responses as the default name.
having a lot of issues with dropped frames. can i get some help?
dropping more than 20% usuually
@wanton patrol Can you please provide a log from your last stream. In OBS go to Help > Log Files > Upload Last Log File. Once this is complete, please provide the link to the log file.
its all network related Number of dropped frames due to insufficient bandwidth/connection stalls: 26052 (22.9%)
!invite
To invite managers to your dashboard, Click on your Channel Name at the top of the dashboard and scroll down to Settings. Click the drop down arrow to expand your channel managers and then create a new invite at one of three access levels (Bot Supervisor, Editor, Full Control) Check this video out for more help: https://youtu.be/zl_h-ttZDF0
have a frined that streams on same modem and doesnt have same issue
Open Broadcaster Software is free and open source software for video recording and live streaming. Stream to Twitch, YouTube and many other providers or record your own videos with high quality H264 / AAC encoding.
its going to be something either with your local network, or between the connection from you and Twitch, i.e., could be an ISP issue
not really something we can help with
ok thank you very much for the info
Are there any other reports of streamelements tip page not loading? I can't get mine nor another streamers to load up on Chrome today.
Mine appears to be loading
yea for me it just loads and spins and spins and loads. But everything else is working fine
weird, If I go incognito it's fine
@surreal kite you don't have to if you use remote play
If you want to use overlays or alerts, you will need either a capture card or use remote play.
Point being, you're streaming from your computer, not your console, and just getting your console gameplay to your computer so you can use it in OBS.
cakerins IDk HOW too
It's a playstation.net link...
Just google Ps4 remote play
and find out how to do it, lol
well nevermind i guess
????
its just im not even on my pc
so
making sure ima just yolo it
if its like the biggest virus then im fucked
playstation.net is the official playstation website, dont even click it if you dont want to, just google what youre looking for
i just find it ironic that your name is Google Device lol
does anyone know how I can fix names not always fitting in my box? :/ https://clips.twitch.tv/VibrantFitAlligatorHotPokket
here is a example of what my alerts look like. above the webcam spot
Is anyone familiar with streamelements bot custom command syntax? I'm trying to get this custom command converted from nightbot to streamelements with limited success
Paste the current response here.
Hi, yesterday I asked something and we weren't able to fix it
I asked about the theme gallery
I took a LoL overlay and it just doesn't fit with my screen
It won't work in 1360x768 (which is my screen resolution) but in 1920x1080 it doesn't fit
We tried Ctrl + F and it stays the same
It adjusts a bit, but it still has a black stray at the bottom
Check your settings to ensure that your canvas is set to 1920x1080.
The output alone isn't enough.
Please screenshot your settings.
Give me a sec
sos :9
Anyone know how I can sort of limit the text or maybe make it scroll for alerts?
@zinc kraken Set margins.
Good afternoon, after the update to 23.01, the custom bot no longer stays logged in, andhas to be reset each time streamelements live is run
hey guys, hoping someone may be able to help, wen I stream on twitch it looks quite dark but wen I look at it on OBS its fine, any way to sort out the brightness for the stream?
@deep epoch This is a known bug. We are working on a fix.
Thanks
@strong kernel Do you see something wrong?
Now screenshot your browser source properties.
Deleted the image because it showed your link. You don't want that. 😃
Oops
Delete and remake your browser source, and immediately after setting its properties and pressing OK, press Ctrl+F.
still don't working ;-;
Screenshot it please.
the source does not look like it is fit to the canvas
as in, the top part of the source is outside of the canvas
is there a nother way stream ps4 besides elgato
i dont have the money i have windows 7
Definitely doesn't. The canvas itself is properly sized, just checked.
@surreal kite You were already told.
@narrow coyote Wish it was true, but look
Those are your only options.
mohdrsby
No, I just tried to stretch it yesterday due to despair but it didn't work neither


wooooow
It probably happened while changing the social media accounts
Thanks for helping me guys
I'm going to be nice and fix it for you.
Oh thanks!
I'm not good at all with the tool 😅
Oh, it's fixed now!
Thank you very much 😊
Set media request to free only.
anyone no how to brighten up my stream? looks fine in OBS but on stream everything is a decent bit darker
@quartz peak For the best OBS support, please join their Official Discord @ discord.gg/obsproject
Is there somewhere I can find a guide or get help with streaming from my xbox, to OBS, then to Twitch?
We don't have a guide for using a capture card or remote play to stream from a PC, no. Best bet is Google.
hi, how exactly do i test this offline?
@swift mist seemed like when i updated windows and everything and restarted my comp it was back and running. went live and no dropped frames. i guess we will see what happens later. Thank you!
Stream elements is dropping 3 times the response when people sub, its only doing it for that for that module, not the normal commands, is it bugged atm ?
Custom name in Ground Control?
nope
Screenshot the issue please.
https://gyazo.com/c4c29e28eeb706d1dc746ca62839b30a that was all from 5 gifted subs [Channel Fungoose if that helps]
Oh, so it's not your channel?
No, the one i mod for, i have supermod, its my partner
helpppppp
@mental sonnet Welcome to the support channel! Please let us know how we can assist you today and a member of the support staff will be with you as soon as possible.
i cant get the my video to show when i start to stream here on my laptop
i just set everything up
says i have not added any video sources
@gaunt spruce they really did that
@nocturne pelican i need your help
@gaunt spruce This is the Twitter module in the Modules section.
Check your twitter module in your dashboard. You can change what tweets are shown in chat @gaunt spruce
anyone know how to get the video working on streamlabs obs
We cannot assist with issues with our overlays in Streamlabs OBS as we do not have the tools to troubleshoot their software for them.
We always recommend using OBS Studio with our plugin, OBS.Live.
@gaunt spruce can you show a screenshot of what it is doing? that would help a ton in figuring out what is happening
also
@gaunt spruce Please connect your Twitch and/or YouTube channel with Discord by going to ⚙ Settings and then Connections here in Discord. https://streamable.com/eg92w
it has obs live
Yep, that is usually what windows update will do to your PC @turbid kestrel
@strong kernel it is OBS Live with Streamlabs
There is not OBS.live with StreamLabs
Streamlabs cannot support OBS.Live.
That would be like Apple putting android software on their phones
obs studios with stream labs
OBS Studio is not the same as Streamlabs OBS.
@mental sonnet 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
on a side note, i think the module issue i was having in chat is fixed 😄
Yeah, we had a lot of reports of it and we woke the team up.
Glad to hear it's better.
@strong kernel keep up the good work 
So I wasn't the only one who it suddenly reset on 😃 good to know
Keep up the good work guys, cant stop people being Angry, you guys are just trying to help. Dont let it mess your days.
Let's be fair, when someone with a colored name uses
it should probably be a red flag in your head.
Bugs happen
On another topic, THANKS for creating such a nice system and listen to your community with all the ideas we have 😄

When I click start streaming
ehm what, I think your first message got removed?
ik but that was the wrong question.
When i click start streaming it says; "could not access specified channels or stream key, please double check your stream key. if it is correct there may be a problem connecting to the server"
plz help
have you checked that the key haven't changed
how do i check it
guessing you are using OBS Studio?
yesssss
alright hang on
oh you prob. don't have entered your stream key then
can someone help me
@long crane
@gritty terrace Welcome to the support channel! Please let us know how we can assist you today and a member of the support staff will be with you as soon as possible.
so you know obs
NP @long crane
how do i make the Quality better for the stream
oh that's a big topic @gritty terrace first what are your system specs
yes, CPU ang GPU and ram amount
@gritty terrace Can you please provide a log from your last stream. In OBS go to Help > Log Files > Upload Last Log File. Once this is complete, please provide the link to the log file.
Please keep everything in the public channels so others can benefit in the future.
its a link
no @gritty terrace do what StreamElements said
That's... not an OBS log.
@swift mist When i go onto stream settings i only see this
is it mandatory to use the donation alert if you have ground app from Streamelements?
because I have tip from from tippiestream because you do not support an ideal pay system
!rank
@long crane don't post it here but go to twitch and make sure the key you have there is the same as the key in your OBS (under the dots)
ok
what about helping me
send us a log
@swift mist so how do i check that on twitch (im sorry im so dumb)
thcx for the help guys
@gritty terrace are you going to send a log or have you sorted it?
@long crane go to your dashboard, then in the lower left corner click channel under settings category
in the top of that you will find your stream key
again don't post it here
Perfect
happy streaming
how do you customize your stream (i feel like you hate me now)
(i should probably look this up sorry)
I don't but that's an even bigger topic, and not one i have time for (i'm just some random guy helping, i'm not with StreamElements)
Here are some video guides how to set up your stream: https://strms.net/welcome
@sacred narwhal Having the SE tip link is only required if you want to use the Custom Bot name option, otherwise you don't need it
o sorry @swift mist
no need to say sorry, just if you were expecting an answer 😄
You can have both tipping links, but there is no way to like tippee with our alert system (seperate copanies)
ok so OBS Live is working so now I can use my Store Extention, but when I test the sound alerts none of the images are showing. Aren't they supposed to if it's set up that way in the store?
Not sound effect, those are purely sound. If you want both, use the Stream Perk item
how can I disable streamelement's tweets to stop showing on my stream? Today every 5 min I got a msg from it lol
Twitter module can be edited or disabled at https://streamelements.com/dashboard/bot/modules
well now im dropping fps....
throttling at 60 in loading screen then i drop to like 25-30 when playing apex
looks fine on my end but terrible on stream @swift mist
will do
also have you tried enabling vsync to see if that helps?
could be the sheer amount of FPS throtteling the system, and you can check it by enabling vsync in game
omw to bed so I won't be on for long 10-15 minute tops
@turbid kestrel ^^
tellin me gpu is maxed
SRY yes GPU
you said try vsync on?
it's 2 in the night here and yes try vsync
theres multplie options for apex vsync... double buff, triple buff, adaptive, and adaptive 1/2 rate
Just a little side note: Please don't stream in 1080p60 if you're planning to stream games with a lot of movement or details like shooters or racing games. You actually need 8000+kbps or a dedicated streaming rig to get good looking 1080p60 stream.
should i try like 720p?
no clue about the apex settings and why they have different
720p 60fps
how do i change that in stream elements @flat horizon
is ther a way to get my bot to greet ppl and such, i added it but im a little noob not sure how to getit all working, tia for any info
There is not. The minimum action required for the bot to send a message is a follow.
aww
@turbid kestrel do this for your specific rig, you will get good quality and no stuttering for fast paced games
then you shouldn't need vsync
but you need the bandwidth for 6000 bitrate ofc
Also try to use Game capture if possible over display capture to capture your gameplay.
for sure benno, that is true
kk
@turbid kestrel remember it's the new nvenc you have to use 😄
if you play slower paced games like.. ehm.. mincraft you could enable look-ahead and do 4 bframes as it will auto adjust. it will give you better image quality but only if it is slower paced, you will get worse image quality if you play fast paced with it on than without them
@turbid kestrel it's better to just find your typical setting on youtube. They explain what the settings are and what they do so you can alter yours according to your setup
we all learned at some point
Guys I want advice. I have been streaming for a month now maybe a month and a week. And I've grown pretty well imo as I'm sitting on almost 80 followers, about 1.1k views and little over 40 bucks in donos. But it's really hard for me to get the average 3 viewers, I have streams where I peak almost 10 - 12 viewers but only for like 3 hours then it drops back to less than 3. So my avg stays really low because I stream for about 5-6 hours. How can I change this without changing the stream times
@flat horizon Better move this question to #general-chat
@swift mist people say my content is good and that they like watching but it's weird that I get that many viewers but my avg is still this low. Is it counted in 30 days or something to determine te overall avg?
OK I'll move it up
@turbid kestrel so how's it running?
smooth as a babies butt
Hello o/
We are having a problem where the chatbot is sending the timers all at the same time. Is there anyway to stagger them? So we have like 10 different timers all set with 25 minutes. Every 25 minutes they all start to trigger back to back within a few minutes and clogs up the chat.
Is there anyway to stagger them or something so they are spaced out.
So, here's the interesting trick with the timers. They're based on the time of creation.
So if you make 5 timers each with a 60 minute interval, and create one on at, for instance 9:00, and then create them every 10 minutes after (9:10, 9:20, 9:30, 9:40, 9:50) then in theory they should each be going off 10 minutes after the previous.
oh ok. So we would need to recreate the timers?
Yeah, it's a bit weird but it works from my experience.
So you have 10 timers. And you want them to play 25 minutes between one another?
Well like 25 minutes between say timer1 from repeating itself.
And maybe like 5 minutes between timer1 and timer2
Okay. 10 timers with 25 minutes being the beginning point.
I understand now with the creation time thing. There should be an option to have a minimum time between timers.
Different timers*
Otherwise spamm
So in theory if you're quick and make each one 2.5 minutes after the previous one it should be nice and even.
Yeah. I'm gonna do that for him. thanks @strong kernel Gonna be a long hour trying to do 17, not the 10. lol
17 timers each with 5 minutes in between each one, you want the interval to be 90 minutes I believe.
I think 54 if my math is correct.
Does the time start when I click submit, or the new timer button that opens up the options.
Submit, I believe.
For future use, whats the equation you were using?
(Number of timers + 1) x Interval between timers = Each timer's interval
Hit a bug with StreamElements tonight.
Someone subbed to the channel once, tier 1, as intended. Bot in chat said "so and so subscribed tier 1" three times, even though they did once, on my overlay it showed 3 credits. in twitch itself, only one, on his bank statement, only one, as intended. so my sub goal is off
We've already fixed the issue there, and you can adjust your goal progress at https://streamelements.com/dashboard/session
Hi loves! Recently updated OBS and the StreamElements bar at the top/my Activity Feed is missing? 😃
any idea why it did that?
¯_(ツ)_/¯
@lucid sonnet Install OBS.Live again.
@viscid osprey Click on link. Go to Goals tab.
aha
10-4 @strong kernel
thanks @strong kernel
100%. Thanks again.
hey um im trying to do like my tip thanks for donating user make it black color just user donated amount which is black color
how do i get color codes
If you mean in chat, you can't color your chat messages anything you want. The only color possibility is by using /me which uses your username color.
Is it possible to create a multi response command, or a script like behavior for a countdown?
Unfortunately not.
How do I make a command for points?
Can you be more specific about what you're trying to do?
Hi i just had a subscription and the person got banned from se for posting a link. But what's wierd is that the subscription has not shown in the activity feed. Help please.
How do you know you got a sub?
Does it show in the twitch chat that the person subbed?
Yes
Can you give a screenshot?
Actually it doesn't say anything about the sub in chat sorry.
But he's got a sub badge next to his name though.
@kind epoch 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
can I hide widget?
or text or image or whatever?
in overlay
not delete, just hide
Hide the widget? Yes - click on it in the editor -> expand layers on the bottom right -> eye icon to hide.
Video off button is meant to be used in tandem with "Show on Stream"
where it hides the video on stream, but leaves the progress bar.
okay
thanks
but it would be nice to have a feature to hide it
it may boost a little performance
wont it?
@zenith widget The person that subbed and got timed out after definately subbed with Twitch prime and upon refreshing shows nothing about sharing. The sub did not register.
For twitch prime, the user needs to have sharing enabled on https://www.twitch.tv/settings/prime.
hey i closed the source stuff on bottom how to i get it back
What are you referring to?
Wrong place to ask, but on the top menu of OBS -> View -> Docks
What does "VIP User group" refers to? I can't find anything about it
I see Regulars but cant find VIP
Do I need to upload the custom font I want to use? The post in announcements didn't provide much detail. Thanks in advance
@quasi apex VIP's are the Twitch VIP group.
@swift abyss The custom font can be on your PC
just make sure you match its name in the overlay editor.
Refresh the editor + obs to see the custom font after you click save.
Ah thank you, didn't think of that
@zenith widget and if I match it in the editor on the computer I have the font on, it will still show on the pc I use for streaming that doesn't have the font?
Ah ok
is there a way for a command ot read a random line of tekst for imput or tekst file ?
Yes. Let me find the way.
@late socket 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
@hybrid heart https://twitter.com/MikeyHay/status/1100822082848518144
Specifically this: https://thefyrewire.com/docs/api/
ill look at it thnx
Can I increase my video bitrate above 6000?? (I have 21MB upload speed)
I think thats close or the soft-cap for bitrate upload to Twitch.
Also having 21mb upload speed doesn't mean anything and its not recommended trying to match your upload speed in bitrate, because else you might suffer network loss
https://stream.twitch.tv/encoding/ - follow these guidelines for bitrate settings
Thanks @zenith widget , any other tips for improving my stream quality btw??
This is not a quality check channel to ask. If you want tips on how to improve quality, better ask in #general-chat
or reseach good PC parts.
Well I'm looking for any advice I can get as I'm a relatively new streamer who's not very tech savvy when it comes to stream software. LUL
WEll this channel is meant for queries/issue resolving about our tools and features
Is it possible to export stream labs settings to stream elements?
What do you mean chat overlay?
like twitch chat overlay
That tool only imports tip info and your alert box from SL.
Anything else needs to be made with our own widgets.
So I can make a chat overlay using stream elements? How can I do that? I wasn;t able to find an option like that
awesome, thanks so much!
