your donate link is to streamlabs tipping page, not streamelements. that is why @red trellis

red trellis
#

Is not my channel

#

I do the channel of Daddy_Law_69

#

and I try to help him out on this

#

wait I need to remove the 2nd link

#

if I have 2?

cedar lynx
#

he also has a Streamlabs link

red trellis
#

Yes he does

#

Oh ok

#

let me check

#

Thanks

cedar lynx
#

the StreamElements one needs to be an image panel linked

elder sorrel
#

@pulsar gulch Create a new overlay & duplicate your alerts to the blank one HandsUp

pulsar gulch
#

thank yaa HandsUp

red trellis
#

I just removed the link from the donations panel and put the streamelements one

#

retesting it now

#

That worked

cedar lynx
#

yay!

red trellis
#

Wait though.. No offense if the link is changed back to streamelements will the bot name remain?

cedar lynx
#

not sure. I don't think so though. I think you can link both but the StreamElements one has to be there as an image panel link

red trellis
#

Oh Ok

#

Doesn't matter having 2 links anyway

#

Thanks @cedar lynx for the help

cedar lynx
#

happy to help! annedoEy

Hello!

#

Are others having issues where twitch and streamelements do not show someone subbed? every other alert is working fine rainbowshrug

#

The people that subbed got their loyalty badge, but nothing shows anywhere on my end they subbed.

upper pendant
#

Is there a chat command for turning off timers?

tight harness
#

@upper pendant No, it is currently done solely through the Timers page, is this a feature that you would like to see?

#

@spice remnant This sounds like they didn't share it

#

!share

nocturne pelicanBOT
upper pendant
#

@tight harness I'm not really sure after thinking about it. Wouldn't want normal mods to be able to do it and any other mods would likely have dashboard access.

spice remnant
#

Oh! That would make a ton of sense. Thanks Sean

tight harness
#

No problem 😃

#

@upper pendant Good points, if you do think of anything you'd like to suggest you can post your ideas on our official ideas board: https://strms.net/ideas SEheart

Im trying to stream through a capture device called avermedia. However the frames drop to almost 16fps. the cpu is usually at about 22%. But i dont know what a good resolution would be for streaming from a ps4

eternal thunder
#

I got a question, When i want to upload a image to my overlay it doenst add the image. I keep pressing upload but it wont actually upload the image. Its my logo and i wanna add that in the overlay. Can someone help me is this a common problem?

strange willow
#

okay this is a dumb question but how do i put the overlays into streamelemts?

tight harness
#

@eternal thunder What browser are you using? Also, after clicking on Upload are you then going through to try and select the files?

nocturne pelicanBOT
#

@strange willow 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 ☑ “Shutdown source when not visible” https://youtu.be/KDvLynUqXI4

tight harness
#

No problem 😃

#

Hi can you help me?

#

Hostname found, but no data of the requested type. This can occur if you have bound to IPv6 address and you streaming service only had IPv4 addresses (see setting = advanced)

#

such a mistake

#

can not open broadcast

mighty dock
#

I was wondering if anyone could help. So I changed my twitch name last night and since then Stream Elements has stopped working on my channel. I've demodded and demodded the bot several times and I've looked on the website to see if there's a fix and found nothing yet. Not sure if I can fix it

tight harness
#

@mighty dock Click on Part Channel on the dashboard, click on Sign Out, sign back in and then click on Join Channel on the dashboard

Hi, is there a setting in media request to stop the next video request from automatically being queued after 20 seconds?

some of my viewers are saying the donation page won't load or they get an error, any idea?

hey guys really knew to this any help to set it up or

@tight harness aye it was working ok for me too, apparently one of them tried incognito and it worked fine thonk

tight harness
#

Probably an extension then

copper bobcat
#

Is it possible to make the Subscriber Goal bar have "Current Subscriber Points / Goal Number"?

strong kernel
#

You could use the Sub Points widget and just do i.e. {points}/100 or whatever goal you wanna set.

copper bobcat
#

But it couldn't be a bar that fills up?

strong kernel
#

No, there's no goal bar specifically for points, just for subs in general.

merry geyser
#

When withdrawing tips from SE.PAY how long does it take to receive the tips?

strong kernel
#

Depends on the tip, but in general it's a bank transfer and takes the typical time you'd expect for those.

merry geyser
#

Ok thank you... So doing it through PayPal would expect the same time span?

strong kernel
#

Paypal's Paypal, and while I'm pretty sure that's a bank transfer too, they can take extra time to process it as well. So I'd say at least just as long.

merry geyser
#

Lol 😂 Thank you!

winter bay
#

How do I add the overlays from the website into the software?

nocturne pelicanBOT
#

@winter bay 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 ☑ “Shutdown source when not visible” https://youtu.be/KDvLynUqXI4

My game capture never brings up the game. It just stays black?

#

How do you fix this?

nocturne pelicanBOT
lament blade
#

I'm confused. What link do i give my viewers for them to request media?

strong kernel
#

In the case of paid requests, just your normal tipping page link

#

Free requests can just be done with the bot using !songrequest or !sr followed by the YouTube URL or name of the song.

lament blade

thanks!

question, is there a chance to get the name of the game im playing in twitch, into an overlay?

polar meadow
#

Can you install third party overlays in streamelements like example buy a overlay from nerdordie u like or visualsbyimpulse

cedar lynx
#

I believe a lot of folks use nerdordie with StreamElements anneGood

polar meadow
#

so after buying a theme how would I go about installing it into streamelements since its browser based

cedar lynx
#

just let us know what theme you bought and we can help you out

polar meadow
#

there a few on nerdordie and visualsbyimpulse i like ofc they are not included in the obslive theme section

#

ok

#

thanks for the help i guess now its finding what overlay I want hahhaa

pearl flint
#

Um my song command is very broken

worthy dawn
#

Hallo i linked alerts from streamelemts to obs. But they get frozen or lag when they pop up. Do i need any special settings?

cedar lynx
#

if you're using animations at all, that puts more strain on your PC for rendering. can cause issues if your CPU usage is high @worthy dawn

worthy dawn
#

So close some background tabs?

#

Maybe it dont get frozen or stuck

cedar lynx
#

yeah reducing overall CPU load will help in general 😃

#

if it's related to that, it should help. if you're still having problems after reducing the load let us know

pearl flint
#

Any ideas why the bot is saying my name in the song title?

cedar lynx
#

very odd, does that happen for all songs @pearl flint ?

worthy dawn
#

Lets go thx ill try that 😁👍

cedar lynx
#

(also I'm not an expert on the song requests stuff so another support person may need to step in for that one)

pearl flint
#

@cedar lynx any song in the backup queue

pearl flint
#

figured it out @cedar lynx

#

THe song command works like this: @user, current song: {song name}, requested by {requesteduser} {songlink}

Since theres no requested by for the backup it just skips that. so it looks like the songlink requested

cedar lynx
#

ahhh good to know! glad you figured it out 😃

pearl flint
#

😃

#

still not sure why it put my name in the title

#

Nevermind

#

I dont even wanna talk about it

spare mason
#

How do I get all my features on my stream such as overlay and media request on my stream

nocturne pelicanBOT

#

How do I give everyone in my chat points?

cedar lynx

!addpoints all ###

where ### is the number of points you want to assign

#

Thx

carmine crow
#

Anyone know how to make a Tweet out the stream command 😃

cedar lynx
#

what do you mean by that? a link to a Tweet in chat or actually posting to your Twitter account?

carmine crow
#

A command so people can tweet out the stream @cedar lynx 😃

cedar lynx
#

what do you mean by "tweet out"? post a new Tweet to their profile? retweet your live announcement tweet?

carmine crow
#

Sorry, just so any viewer can tweet out a link to the stream 😃

cedar lynx
#

I'm asking you to clarify what you mean by "tweet out" -- there's no command that will automatically send tweets on behalf of your viewers due to authentication and privacy issues

#

so if you clarify what you want them to be able to do I might be able to recommend something that helps them without directly tweeting on their behalf, which is impossible to do

carmine crow
#

Post a new tweet to their profile, I've seen some do similar

cedar lynx
#

Look into Twitter intent links

#

you can create a command that includes a Twitter intent link with preset text like "Tune in to Potato's stream with me! They're live at <your twitch link>" so when they open it all they have to do is click "Send Tweet" or whatever

carmine crow
#

Thanks very much @cedar lynx ❤

cedar lynx
#

np! keep on innovating annedoEy

native garden
#

my followers arent loading in the obs streamelemtns app

cedar lynx
#

try clicking the "refresh" button in the upper left hand corner of the dock

#

it's a little arrow going in a circle

native garden
#

dont see it

#

reload overlays?

stone current
#

anyone here able to help me figure out how to get twitch chat showing over my fullscreen game 1 monitor for reasons

native garden
#

nope

cedar lynx
#

@stone current use the Twitch chat widget in your overlay

#

@native garden see the screenshot I just shared

native garden
#

dont see that

stone current
#

that only shows for the stream and doesn't go over my actual game tho which is my issue, i don't want to have to alt+tab to read every message

#

@cedar lynx

cedar lynx
#

@stone current I would recommend setting up chat on a tablet or a laptop then. you would have to talk to whoever made the game to see about modifying actual game play to integrate twitch chat

stone current
#

tis' fortnite that which i play so i don't think integrating twitch chat would be done so fast

cedar lynx
#

@native garden did you check your filters?

native garden
#

filters?

#

they are all on

red trellis
#

Is there a command I could enter in chat to dissable certain commands being able to be recalled and then another command to re-activate them? I have some sound snipets for people to redeem but want to control when they can redeem them and when not. I have created aliases for the commands to be redeemed by a normal command so I want to know if I can dissable and enable them via a command in chat so people don't spam them too much

cedar lynx
#

I use custom redeem commands and add cooldowns to avoid spam

earnest idol
#

Anyone around who can help me with dropped frames ? Ive streamed the last few days without any problems and out of no where my frames drop like crazy today

#

Hey!

I'm having issues when switching scenes,
Some overlays and media do not load when I switch between one scene and another.

tight harness
#

@fickle night Do you mean don't load at all or take a little while to load?

half torrent
#

Hey guys! Anyone have any tips on the best way to figure out when Twitch is going to payout? I've been paid once before and want to know when to expect the next payout as I'm broke as hell haha

fickle night
#

@tight harness Don't load at all,

Usually have to refresh browser source or switch from one scene to another

wanton cave
#

Is there a way to stream to both youtube and twitch?

twin sentinel
#

@wanton cave Are you affiliated with twitch?

wanton cave
#

I don't think so.... why?

cedar lynx
#

@wanton cave services like https://restream.io/ allow for this but if you are affiliated on Twitch you cannot stream to multiple platforms at the same time

tight harness
#

@fickle night You could try refreshing your browser source's cache. There's a button 'Refresh cache of current page' in the properties of the browser source

wanton cave
#

Ah, what are the affiliate rates for twitch?

red drum
#

For the mobile app there is only one alert box and you can't change it right?

cedar lynx
wanton cave
#

thx

cedar lynx
twin sentinel
#

@red drum You can copy your alertbox to your mobile overlay and it will be applied to your mobile app overlay.

wanton cave
#

oh rip, we only got three followers lol

red drum
fickle night
#

@tight harness Do I need to do this every time?
It tends to happen at least 3 times per stream

wanton cave
#

Where's a good place to advertise my channel then?

cedar lynx
#

not in this discord @wanton cave 😃 if you search around there are Discords specifically for that

wanton cave
#

I know, I'm just trying to find somewhere good, 😃

tight harness
#

@fickle night You shouldn't need to refresh cache manually, but it is just a diagnostic step in case that is the issue. If you're still having problems you could consider sending in an issue report through the menu within OBS.Live: StreamElements -> Report an Issue

#

That will also send in OBS logs for us to look into, should the issue persist

fickle night
#

@tight harness No worries, thanks for your help

tight harness
half torrent
#

Thanks @cedar lynx

weary trench
#

how do i make it so whenever im streaming it shows all over the page and so you can see thescreen even before im in a fullscreen game

cedar lynx
#

what is it you want to show all over the page?

cobalt kindle
#

Is there any way to add a counter to the broadcast which can be manipulated (added and subtracted) by moderators in chat?

#

I know there's a counter in Streamlabs. I don't see where I would do that with SE

cedar lynx
cobalt kindle
#

Thanks. I'm not great with formatting new commands and text with variables. I'll give it a shot though

#

This looks like it's all about chat. No way to display on screen

cedar lynx
#

that's how moderators can manage the counter

#

then you use the bot counter widget in your overlay

cobalt kindle
#

Ah, okay... thanks. I'll check it out

#

Yeah. I'm not understanding how to set this up. It's not responding

#

Clearly missing a step.

#

Like, if I had a programmers mind, cool, but variables aren't beginner friendly at all. I'll keep tinkering with it

cedar lynx
#

yeah the default commands and command templates are for beginners. making custom commands to do custom things is a bit more advanced 😃

cobalt kindle
#

I can't get the bot to respond at all

#

Is it a !count command? Can I not alter it?

cedar lynx
#

you should set up a custom command

cobalt kindle
#

All I want are two counters that can be manipulated by chat.

#

I did that, but the bot doesn't even respond to it. I have like 50 custom commands and they all work fine, but the variable thing is throwing me

cedar lynx
#

what are you putting as the response content in your custom command?

cobalt kindle
#

So there will be a Pushups one, and a situps one. I'm just wanting to call the counters pu and su

#

I have a !pu command which currently responds There are currently ${count pu} pushups owed.

#

Except it doesn't respond at all

cedar lynx
#

sometimes stuff gets stuck in the cache. I'd disable and reenable the command again

cobalt kindle
#

Negative.

#

Every command I've ever made has been usable immediately.

cedar lynx
#

negative as in you won't try it because of past commands that worked, or negative that you tried it and it didn't help?

cobalt kindle
#

Negative as in, tried it, and it doesn't work

#

I'd never not try something you recommend.

#

😛

cedar lynx
#

annedoLOL I figured but just wanted to check

#

it shouldn't matter but you could also try with () brackets instead, just to see if that makes it go

#

so $(count pu)

cobalt kindle
cedar lynx
#

hmm

cobalt kindle
#

But it doesn't respond

#

It's always 0 on the counter

#

and there's nothing in chat replying to me

cedar lynx
#

and other commands are working right now?

#

just making sure we've ruled out the basics

cobalt kindle
#

Yup

cedar lynx
#

can you do me a favor and logout and log back into your StreamElements dashboard and try to recreate the command?

cobalt kindle
#

Also your window keeps going like this with me... been doing this for over a month

cedar lynx
#

oh well that looks frustrating. are you using Chrome?

cobalt kindle
#

Firefox

tight harness
#

I see the issue here

#

The command is set to only reply when you are online in that screenshot

#

If you change it to 'both' it will reply now when you are offline too

cedar lynx
#

just saw that too!

#

Legendary indeed annedoEy

tight harness
cedar lynx
#

but also, as for UI issues it's always going to be a smoother experience in Chrome

cobalt kindle
#

Making changes...

#

Okay, so using !pu works now, but it adds 1 to the counter.

#

I'd like a way for people to reference the current count without changing it, and then a way for moderators to add and subtract from it

#

Oh, I see. $getcount

#

Didn't see that one. Making changes

elder sorrel
cobalt kindle
#

okay, so I'm still stuck

#

I'm seeing ${count <name> <value>} which I assume is to set a custom value

#

Except no matter what I add with the command, it moves it up by 1

#

I was hoping something like !setpu 10 would reply with the counter being set at 10

elder sorrel
#

@grave lance I don't think there is an option to gift a streamer Discord Nitro via Twitch thinkingOHNO

wanton mango
#

Maybe something like this instead:

$(count pu $(1|'+1'))

Then doing:
!pu = adds 1
and
!pu +23 = adds 23
and
!pu 10 = sets counter to 10

cedar lynx
#

all hail fyrewire!

cobalt kindle
#

Don't want everyone to be able to add to it though. Just want everyone to be able to reference it - moderators add to it

#

So I've set an !addpu command for moderators

#

It's just not doing what I thought it would do

wanton mango
#

Ah, sorry, I thought pu was moderator. In that case make that command but for addpu/setpu and leave pu as $(count pu)

cobalt kindle
#

Yup. That's kinda what I have for the second bit there. Its the addpu and setpu that isn't working

#

I'm sure I'm missing something really simple

elder sorrel
#

@grave lance I don't think there's an official Discord Support Server. If my memory is correct it's only Events & Discord Developers

cobalt kindle
cedar lynx
#

try the code that fyrewire gave ya

#

$(count pu $(1|'+1'))

wanton mango
#

That count variable will automatically return the new value by the way

cobalt kindle
wanton mango
#

So you'd want
Added $(1|'1') bringing the total to $(count pu $(1|'+1')) (I think)

cobalt kindle
#

Yup that did it! Woot!

#

Now all I need is set

#

To set it to a custom value, and read out the total

#

Then I'll copy all of this to the su counter

#

Also, with this addpu command... if they accidentally miss the + sign, they are setting it to the new value

#

Which would be bad

#

So if I have 26 on the counter, and a moderator wants to add 5 to it, and they say !addpu 5 instead of !addpu +5 ...

#

That would be bad

cedar lynx
#

I mean there's not gonna be a way to foolproof using commands wrong

#

if they unset it they can just reset it to the last value

#

and then add the correct amount

#

or reset it to what should have been the new amount

cobalt kindle
#

"reset it to the last value" --- easily without knowing what it was already?

cedar lynx
#

if you have it on your overlay they can clip to see what it was

cobalt kindle
#

It won't be on the overlay all the time. Only on a specific scene

cedar lynx
#

but presumably they are paying attention to your stream and can switch it back

cobalt kindle
#

Maybe I'll just use it as a !setpu command already... that way, they can use that command for both functions.

cedar lynx
#

or add a getvalue to the message before running the + commands

#

so it's saying the previous amount first

cobalt kindle
#

Interesting idea. I like it. Something reading out like. It was ##. Now Adding ## pushups bringing the total to ## pushups owed!

cedar lynx
#

yep

#

that way it's tracked in the message directly

cobalt kindle
#

It will give the old value first then?

#

Before the add?

cedar lynx
#

presumably

#

I assume if you use ${getcount pu} before changing pu it should print the old value first

#

you'll have to test it though

cobalt kindle
#

I figured it would be submitting changes, and then reading out the result

#

Not implementing changes in line with the readout

wanton mango
#

!addpu - Added $(1) bringing the total up to $(count pu '+$(1)')

!setpu - Set pu to $(count pu $(1))

#

I think doing !setpu +1 would add 1 though

#

But doing !addpu and missing the + sign will just add that amount anyway. Passing no value does nothing

cobalt kindle
#

Negative.

wanton mango
#

Oh whoops, just noticed I think I have it the other way, hold on lol

cobalt kindle
#

You're awesome thank yo

wanton mango
#

I saved you pushups Kappa

cobalt kindle
#

😛

wanton mango
#

See edit

cobalt kindle
#

hmmm

#

now it's reading out the variable code

wanton mango
#

Using a plus will break it I think, which is what I tried to fix, but then it doesn't add and sets it instead.

cobalt kindle
#

I think it might be easier to just use a single !setpu command, and if they use a + symbol, it'll add to it, and if they don't, it'll set it to that.

#

With a readout that just gives the total after their changes... but can what anne was saying happen? Can it read the previous value first, and then the new value?

wanton mango
#

Maybe if you have the getcount before the count? 🤔

cobalt kindle
#

It still reads the command out like that though.

#

(from photo)

wanton mango
#

I knew I wasn't losing my mind

cobalt kindle
#

Perfect. Thank you so much for your help. This will be awesome for moderators who are coming in to help fresh and didn't know what it was before

wanton mango
#

In any case, enjoy the pushups! MiniK

cobalt kindle
#

hahaha! They're paying for them.

If you're streaming directly from Console: Overlays don't work since they don't support browser sources.

Custom bot name requirements

  • StreamElements bot modded and in chat
  • Active overlay with alerts
  • StreamElements tipping page in the panels below the stream (!panels)
  • Create a twitch account for the name you want to use
  • Ground Control app must be running

@orchid prairie Your Support panel image doesn't link to anything, copy the tip link, edit the panel and put the link where it says 'Image Links To' 😃

streamelements and streamlabs need to mak a button right at the beginning for newb bots like me that u click on what u are streaming from like capture card or console. this would have saved me and im sure others so much time efffffffffffff whatever im lost af . this isnt user friendly at all. im so confused and feel like a freaking idiot

@tight harness so I need to put the link on my image also is it?

Did you click 'Join Bot' in the streamelements website?

@ionic prism Try parting the bot & have it join again.

not sure if this is a twitch or just obslive question i'm trying to set up a command that activates a source using $OBStimedSource("Alive", "16") but all i get is "$OBStimedSource("Alive", "16")" as the responce, can anyone help in more detail i have OBS websocket installed

Can someone help me set up !watchtime on twitch? It do not work :/

tight harness
#

You enable loyalty in Loyalty Settings, then it updates every 10 minutes

#

!watchtime

nocturne pelicanBOT
#

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.

When I try to stream with OBS my twitch stream just has a green screen but you can hear the audio. Is it fixable?

Try the following: Set the color format in OBS to i420. In OBS: Settings > Advanced > Video > Color format = i420

Oh okay, thank you I will :))

Tweet Generator Command

Command: !tweet - generates a click-to-tweet link that lets your viewers tweet out the stream.

You have two options: have a single preset tweet text or multiple tweet texts (using Pastebin, and one is randomly selected each time the command is used).

Single tweet text
Response:

$(customapi.https://api.thefyrewire.com/twitch/tweet?msg=YOUR TWEET HERE)

Example response:

Want to help the stream in another way? Maybe tweet us out! $(customapi.https://api.thefyrewire.com/twitch/tweet?msg=Hey, thefyrewire just went live playing $(queryencode $(game))! Come check him out! twitch.tv/thefyrewire)

Randomising tweet texts

  1. Go to https://pastebin.com
  2. Make a free account or log in if you already have one (this allows you to edit the paste later if you want)
  3. Create a new paste - on each line, type a different possible tweet. If you want to specify the game, use $(args.1) as the variable
  4. Note the paste key (the alphanumeric string in the paste link)
  5. Add a new command as below and replace PASTE_KEY with your own. A random line from your paste will be selected and used.

Response:

$(customapi.https://api.thefyrewire.com/twitch/tweet?msg=$(queryencode $(customapi.https://api.thefyrewire.com/twitch/pastebin/PASTE_KEY?args=$(queryencode $(game)))))

Example paste:

Hey, come join the stream! thefyrewire is playing $(args.1) right now! :D twitch.tv/thefyrewire

Oh, so Fyre just wanted me to let you know that he's currently doing some $(args.1) rn :D twitch.tv/thefyrewire

This is definitely not Fyre forcing me to tweet that he's live now playing $(args.1) .... o_o (help me) :D twitch.tv/thefyrewire

Example response:

Want to help the stream in another way? Maybe tweet us out! $(customapi.https://api.thefyrewire.com/twitch/tweet?msg=$(queryencode $(customapi.https://api.thefyrewire.com/twitch/pastebin/TQQ7VA7E?args=$(queryencode $(game)))))

Question: I want to do some giveaways on my channel, but I dont want people to use their loyalty points. I want it to be donation based where when someone donates a certain amount they get a 'ticket' or at least get entered into the drawing. Is there a service like this or do you offer this please?

strong kernel
#

There is not. Giveaways are by points only. You can allow people to gain points by tipping, but tipping won't just automatically enter someone into a giveaway.

silver quarry
#

ah okay that makes sense. So I could make it so the only way to earn points is to donate, but then I would have to reset everyones points up til now in order for it to be fair to everyone during my special event stream. I will find another way of doing giveaways. Thanks for the quick response!

@lament blade Due to changes to Twitch API, we have filtered out hosts and will only show these ones on your activity feed:

  • All hosts coming from an online channel. If the hosting channel has been offline, we do not show it
  • All auto host events with at least 1 viewer

Hey guys! I am having issues with setting a custom bot name. I found the pin in this channel and successfully got my newly created twitch-bot account to send the messages, but the name is not updating to what I change it to via Ground Control. It is displaying as if the newly created twitch -bot account is sending them. Even after relaunching GC and waiting. Any thoughts?

You can't just give it any name you want. It uses the name of the account you created.

Otherwise every 13 year old on Twitch would name it Ninja to try to make themselves look special. LuL

does it not reset while offline? i manually reset it like you said @winter cradle but it still shows on both obs and the overlay editor

Resetting the session, does not reset the event list.

and reset the labels

if I remember correctly the event list picks up only events/names from the labels section.

@lament blade Unfortunately, no.

yeah, that diodnt work either

I talked about this yesterday but.. my alert box just flat out doesn’t work and I followed a video to set it up in obs and everything. I logged out, logged back in. Parted the bot, blah blah blah. Maybe the audio isn’t working but that’s also a problem? I’ve tested the alerts and they work then but not when things actually happen during stream. Nethyr came to my stream and followed to see (ig) but then nothing was said about it 💀 I really wanna get this figured out lol

dire solstice
#

Sure. He's currently trouble shooting something else at the moment.

tight harness
#

@dire solstice When I test tip and cheer events it does drop into the cup, it is worth pointing out that only tips and cheers are set to fill the cup on this specific cup so the other events aren't set to do anything with the cup

dire solstice
#

It hasn't been working at all on our end. When people donate bits while live nothing falls in.

#

The alerts pop up but bits don't fall into the cup.

tight harness
#

They did in the overlay editor when I just tested it, will add the overlay to my OBS and give it another test

dire solstice
#

Yes, they show up in our overlay as well, but don't show up while live streaming.

He even replays a bit donation and those don't fall into the cup either.

overlays are cloud based so you don't need to download them. I haven't used the phone app so someone else would need to answer your questions about customizing for mobile, I'm not sure how it works. (volunteer support here.)

The watchtime command in my stream seems to be broken, but it used to work flawlessly. Whenever I run the command, the response always included 0 seconds for watchtime.

lament blade
#

is there a way to make the chatbot use the channel's emotes without gifting it a sub?

tight harness
#

@storm matrix That's because they need to share it to show in your activity feed and people don't tend to share subs when the streamer is offline

#

@red shadow This happens when Loyalty is disabled in Loyalty Settings

#

!watchtime

nocturne pelicanBOT
#

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.

@tight harness like any text widget, dont really care which one, 😛 I just mean what is the easiet way to do something like that,, (and not the counter no, i need it to be text input)

wicked hatch
#

And just to clarify and make sure I did it right the command I have set up at the end {msg} thats the message that the sub types correct or is it something else?

strong kernel
#

@humble ether That would be a custom coded solution. You're on your own with that one.

@wicked hatch Correct.

#

Wish there was a way to test bot messages like these

#

is there?

strong kernel
#

There is not; it'll only react to actual events.

humble ether
#

@strong kernel hmm okay, but that would be some HTLM text then right? ... its fine for me,, but the person who needs it wants to be able to edit it and move it around him self, and has no chance in "coding" in changes,, that sucks,, it should be pretty easy for SE to implement something like that

strong kernel
#

HTML, CSS, JS. That stuff, yeah.

humble ether
#

Especially when you have the counter working with commands already

#

yeah i already made one that works with JS and CSS .

#

But thats not useful for this case unfortunately.

#

Hopefully something like that will get implemented soon,, having mods in chat be able to change text on screen would be a dream for many people i think

strong kernel
#

Why not? You can code in fields that can be edited like a normal widget.

hmmm i mean,, can you code in so you get widget options for font, font size, color, shadows, line height, stuff like that?

Hi, I wanted to create a command for jokes, that would pull a random joke. Is there a way to do this without adding each joke separately

my currently playing doesnt work anymore in media request and in obslive

#

any reasons?

slender magnet
#

Hello. I would like to ask, if there's any known problem with the Twitch Bot?
In the chat where I'm in as a Moderator, it's down.

strong kernel
#

Which channel?

slender magnet
#

Lady

strong kernel
#

Has she tried to rename the bot?

slender magnet
#

Not today, I think. She tried it several times.

#

Sometimes it works. Sometimes not.

strong kernel
#

Tell her to completely disable the rename option.

slender magnet
#

I'll do.

#

Will this fix the problem?

storm matrix
#

Guys my currenty playing doesnt work since hours for some reason. Can anyone help me?

strong kernel
#

@slender magnet Please let me know when she's done so.

#

@storm matrix I don't understand what you mean.

storm matrix
#

in obs live i have on the bottom "currently playing widged" from media request from streamelements

#

it shows what kind of song im listening right now

#

but it stopped working

#

doesnt show anymore

strong kernel
#

It doesn't just automatically know what you're listening to no matter what. You need to be using the media request feature.

storm matrix
#

yea im using that

#

ive my playlist in media request feature

#

it was working until today

strong kernel
#

Skip to the next song please.

#

And make sure it's playing.

slender magnet
#

@strong kernel Seems like she disabled it now.

#

Bot is working again, as it looks.

strong kernel
#

Sounds like she didn't set up the rename correctly.

#

@storm matrix Skip it once and let it play.

storm matrix
#

still not working

strong kernel
#

Stop messing with it.

#

Skip once and let it play.

storm matrix
#

ok

#

till the end?

strong kernel
#

Just leave it alone.

#

Let it play and don't touch it.

storm matrix
#

ok

slender magnet
#

@strong kernel Okay. Bot works now again. We'll see if the rename function works at the next time. Thanks for the help and have a nice evening/night/day whatever.

storm matrix
#

still doesnt work

strong kernel
#

Please be patient while I look into the issue. Messaging "still doesn't work" will not make it go faster.

storm matrix
#

allright

slender magnet
#

@strong kernel Another information about the Bot didn't work case: Lady just said, that the Rename of the Bot was correctly.

strong kernel
#

@storm matrix It's a confirmed bug. We'll be looking into it, but there's no quick fix at the moment.

Hello guys, I got one question - maybe its a stupid one but im new to this.

I've installed a theme for my stream, and its automaticly installed on "Latest Sub" - I just started, so I got no subs.. I'd like to fix "Latest follower" instead, how can I do that easy?

Thanks.

storm matrix
#

allright

#

@weary anvil Delete the widget you don't want, go into the Widgets tab at the top left, and add the widget you want to use.

Does it automaticly pop up on the screen(twitch) when someone follows?? Similair to when other people have popups when people sub

ripe nebula
#

Anyone able to help me setup an alert box?

weary anvil
#

I think that I'm searching for the term "Alert box" like Krova

fast tendon
#

Why is my video feed suddenly not working?

strong kernel
#

@weary anvil Only if you've set it up. Themes will have alertboxes included in each overlay.

ripe nebula
#

I can get the alert box to show in my overlays in the editor, but it doesn't show in obs when I test it.

weary anvil

weary anvil
#

This is how it looks for me now, is it "set up"?

strong kernel
#

Watch the video I linked to Krova.

ripe nebula
#

didn't have that checked at the bottom, my bad. Thank you.

fast tendon
#

Had this happen the other day, thought maybe an update glitch or something. But my video feed in OBS Live is not working.

#

Any ideas on how to fix this?

weary anvil
#

Awesome vid , thanks.
One last thing - my "bio/dashboard" on twitch is basic, do you guys have any themes for that?

strong kernel
#

No, panels are up to you.

#

@fast tendon Don't ask the same question in multiple channels.

#

@fast tendon Please explain in detail what you mean, or provide screenshots.

fast tendon
#

@strong kernel Apologies on that, thought maybe I was in the wrong area. When I open OBS Live (camera is on) there is no video capture...black screen. It has worked off and on sporadically over the last few days.

strong kernel
#

Video capture is core OBS Studio functionality, we don't touch it.

nocturne pelicanBOT
fast tendon
#

My OBS Studio works fine, I can open it and video appears. So I should just use OBS Studio and not OBS Live?

strong kernel
#

OBS.Live is a plugin for OBS Studio.

#

It's not its own thing.

#

And that plugin does not change the behavior of display/game/window capture.

fast tendon
#

So running OBS Studio will still pick up all bots, commands etc. from Stream Elements, no need to open OBS Live?

strong kernel
#

I think you're confusing the point.

opaque stream
#

Okay I'm having a problem with my uptime command it isn't working but it's on but it's not working.

You're not currently live.

frigid python
#

Any reason my streamelements bot isnt working? i tried parting my channel and putting it back, but commands nor test messages are working

strong kernel
#

Did you attempt to rename it?

frigid python
#

yeah. i named it the other night, and it was working fine

strong kernel
#

Where did you rename it?

frigid python
#

in the OBS.Live panel under Stream Settings

strong kernel
#

Take a screenshot of the settings you have there.

frigid python
strong kernel
#

Send a test message.

frigid python
#

I have tried, no luck

strong kernel
#

Set it back to StreamElements for a moment.

frigid python
#

that worked

#

set it back and did anoth er test. didnt work? expired token or something?

strong kernel
#

Don't set it back.

#

Wait a moment please.

#

Enable the rename again.

frigid python
#

just did. no test message again

strong kernel
#

That's expected.

#

Remove the account from OBS.Live and connect it again.

frigid python
#

just reconnected and verified token. still no test message

strong kernel
#

That's expected. Don't send tests unless asked.

#

Hmm. Let me check something on my end.

frigid python
#

thats fine. ill just switch back to SLOBS. thanks anyways

strong kernel
#

There may be an issue with new bots being connected, this has happened before. There's also a rename function in Ground Control.

#

Do you have that?

spring lantern
#

i am very frustrated with this and I want to change my bot's name

#

is there no one here to help this helpdesk

Please wait while we're looking into this. 😃

spring lantern
#

thank you for your response. and ok

strong kernel
#

Are you trying to rename in OBS.Live?

spring lantern
#

im trying to rename it anywhere Ican. I don't even have the option.

nocturne pelicanBOT

@spring lantern Custom bot name requirements

  • StreamElements bot modded and in chat
  • Active overlay with alerts
  • StreamElements tipping page in the panels below the stream (!panels)
  • OBS.Live or Ground Control open
  • Create a twitch account for the name you want to use or run the bot under your own name
  • Custom bot name doesn't work on Mac
spring lantern
#

we have been trying for hours to rename it and followed all things posted on many websites and nothing. we have tried on four computers total

#

windows computers

#

I have all of what the robot just said.

strong kernel
#

In OBS.Live, the option is in the menu in the top left of the activity feed.

spring lantern
#

i have ground control

strong kernel
#

Take a screenshot of your Ground Control settings?

spring lantern
#

Authentication with my blurred jwy token. Keybindings, and other with use media request as the only option. I am on 2 different computers atm, but that is all thats on the screen.

So having an issue where bits are not showing in stream, they're fine in over lay manager. But not in stream I noticed someone else had an issue but didn't see their reply

@floral salmon Just became affiliate? Log out and back in to StreamElements.

Nope the streamer I mod for PmsProxy

@floral salmon Tested it by replaying an alert, seems to be fine.

floral salmon

Its fine when you do that but the bits don't show on stream I can grab a clip?

spring lantern
#

i am still here...

strong kernel
#

@spring lantern Please provide a screenshot of your Ground Control settings.

spring lantern
#

i gave you a response. I cannot take a screenshot.

#

the option is not there

#

i even downloaded your live thing just now. the option isn't there either

strong kernel
#

The option in OBS.Live is in the menu in the top left of the activity feed.

spring lantern
#

yes. i saw you said that. but even though the three requrements have green check marks next to them, I cannot change it

strong kernel
#

Can you take a screenshot of what you see there, then?

spring lantern
#

no i am not opperating from the same computer.

#

but i told you what Isee

strong kernel
#

There's more to it than just that and seeing what's there myself makes this much easier to assist with.

anyone having issue with tiltfy donation alerts on SE here?

strong kernel
#

Haven't received any other reports of issues with Tiltify alerts.

waxen swallow
#

@strong kernel ran a test after 3 people have donated during stream and none of sounded or prompted on stream. Ran the test and that failed too

strong kernel
#

Can you check the Tiltify alertbox in your overlay and see if it happens to be prompting you to connect?

waxen swallow
#

@strong kernel not sure where that is, unless you are talking the check box to push to stream to test alerts in the windows and on stream

strong kernel
#

Edit your overlay, click on the Tiltify alertbox widget, and look on the left.

waxen swallow
#

@magic cape negative, no connect prompt on the widget

Hi, is there a way to add a greenscreen to your overlays through the SE site?

#

Similar to the green screen shown above ^ but custom size

strong kernel
#

That's not a green screen. That's just for viewing more easily. The overlays support transparency.

rapid robin
#

I have my own overlay, but I want to make a portion of it transparent, is that possible then?

strong kernel
#

Do the assets already have transparency in them?

waxen swallow
#

Any luck on the Tiltify ?

Errrr, no, I dont think so.

@waxen swallow There was an update to it that I think may have made things a bit iffy. Try deleting and remaking the widget first, but otherwise you may need to wait for a dev fix.

#

@boreal schooner Old and new names please.

boreal schooner
#

@strong kernel old name: lolchoppertv new name: choppe6

#

thanks so much in advance

rapid robin
#

This is what I mean Nethyr, this is a previous overlay I used before, from you guys.

waxen swallow
#

@strong kernel I will take a look at it thanks.

strong kernel
#

Yeah, that green area isn't a green screen. It's just transparency.

#

When you add it in OBS, it's basically a hole.

rapid robin
#

Ah, gotcha, hmm, so no transparency options on the site that we can control right?

strong kernel
#

I mean... what are you looking for, exactly?

#

Any asset you upload can have transparency if the filetype supports it.

rapid robin
#

Just wanna delete a portion of a looping video I have, just wanted to see if I could somehow do it through your site instead of editing it pre upload.

strong kernel
#

No, you can't edit a video on our site. You should only be using finished assets in the overlay editor.

rapid robin
#

I see, well, thank you for the replies!

How to remove stream delay"

?

frosty lantern
#

Stream Delay is done through your streaming application @lament blade who are you with? if OBS i would recommend asking for support in their server discord.gg/obsproject

manic abyss
#

I have connected my twitch account to OBS Stream Elements but it pop us with something like this "Could not access the specified channel or stream key, please double -check your stream key. If it is correct, there may be a problem connecting to the server." I've double checked everything! ... Nothin'

strong kernel
#

That's your OBS settings, not your OBS.Live settings.

#

So click Settings in the bottom right and go to Stream, and make sure everything is correct there.

@zenith widget so with paypal, how long does it typically take for a payment to process on a personal account?

zenith widget
#

When receiving - instantly towards your payapal balance

swift tangle
#

but ive been waiting since the 25th for $3 and i still dont have it

zenith widget
#

Withdrawing - 3-4 days because its a abank tranfer

swift tangle
#

and then the 31st for $5

#

theyre still being processed?

zenith widget
#

Ok look. When receiving tipa from others its instant towards your paypal balance. If its not there then either tou have an open issue with your account or they have and the transaction is pending.

#

If you are withdrawing money from paypal towards your bank - it can take up to 3 4 or 5 business days for the amount to be shown in your bank balance

#

Which of the two is the problem?

swift tangle
#

ill just assume its the account issue and call paypal later today

placid oar
#

@zenith widget the message that pops up when someone follows

swift tangle
#

go to bot modules

#

or your overlay settings for alerts

And then chat alert module

hm... is there a way to cast android gameplay but have the android audio on both pc and the android device?

zenith widget
#

I'm sorry, but we can't help with that query. Your best bet is to most likely google it. shrugg

#

@crystal creek I'm not sure where you've gotten that image. But usually the image size depends on the widget box size and layout (under the image and above the message field) you've chosen

crystal creek
#

The problem is, the image in the preview field is already cut off, because (it might be) to big in size. Is there like no way to tell what size an image should be to fit perfectly, just like the example one.

twin sentinel
#

the default shark gif has a size of 400x400. But as stated, the size of the image is depending on your widget box size.

okay, thanks ^^

Not sure where to put this question, so feel free to direct me some where else. Anyways, ground control lately has been acting up for me. It plays 1 song in the playlist and stops playing. I do use groundcontrol on a second computer though. Any ideas? Dashboard doing the same now

What version of Ground Control are you using?

#

1.7.1

zenith widget
#

Do you have this on?

lament blade
#

I turned it off 5 minutes ago, however had the issue long before that.

zenith widget
#

turn it back on

#

sometimes the state of the toggles is misleading

lament blade
#

don't think it's misleading at all 😛

zenith widget
#

@drowsy sail Reload the overlay - the issue has been fixed

lament blade
#

turning it off & on solution .......figured lol

zenith widget
#

Trust me - i had to debug an issue a week ago where a specific toggle was on, but MR acted like it wasn't on. I clicked to toggle it off, but it didn't do anything, until i lcicked to toggle it again and it went off

#

and I think its was the same autoplay toggle

#

if it still continues, let me know

Will do, it's been haunting me for a few days now. 😉

#

alright so i have been trying to figure out media request for a good minute now, im trying to play the media request on the stream but it just tells me I do not have an overlay and then when i try to create and launch an overlay nothing happens

cedar lynx
#

did you add the media request widget to your overlay?

crisp badger
#

I have been but when i try to launch it it opens up another tab and nothing displays on that tab

cedar lynx
#

if that's all that's on there I don't think you'll see anything, but that URL probably needs to be active for media request to work. I would recommend adding it to your streaming software (such as OBS) as a browser source.

crisp badger
#

so i would copy paste the link of the tab that opens when i try to launch the overlay?

cedar lynx
#

yep into a browser source on OBS

nocturne pelicanBOT
#

@crisp badger 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 ☑ “Shutdown source when not visible” https://youtu.be/KDvLynUqXI4

alright thank you ill try that now
