@strange mesa Screenshot how you've filled that out.
Okay i donated money to my own StreamElements to test if everything was working just thinking it would go through and i would get it right back. but SePays is holding it for review which it says can take 7 days and i need the money urgently but i dont know how to refund it or something to get it out of the hold
Bot isn't using user cooldown on a item purchase from store...........
On top of like 5 other issues
User cooldown is per item, not throughout the whole store.
Who is ignoring it? You? A mod?
Normal viewers
Do you have a clip?
Which item?
I'm having difficulty importing watchtime via csv. I have a csv in this format: username,twitchID,currentPoints,alltimePoints,watchtime and have tried multiple times. It gives me a message 'Couldn't import points :/' yet the leaderboard updated the points. However all the watchtime commands ${user.time_online} return no value. And it is giving me a headache. Any help?
Nevermind Kappa
Got it to work
@tawny bay Please have a normal viewer recreate the bug if possible.
@tawny bay I also noticed this in your account:
It looks like it was possible because you deleted and recreated the item.
hello?

My overlay widget/ follower goal won't display the right # of followers. How to fix?
Goals are counters. They do not reflect your current account total. You can adjust goal progress at https://streamelements.com/dashboard/session
awesome problem fixed thks
I am trying to add timers to my stream but I have several that I usually use. When I tell the systems I want 5 mins per alert its still posting one every mineute. Is there a way to space them out so it does one timer then waits 5 mins to do the second one and so on? Basically so it rotates them every 5 mins
Hey guys i've noticed that my subscribers info are not updating to the latest subscriber, the alert comes up however the data coming through isn't picking up the change (when i go to the editor and data tab)
followers are working as normal just subscribers aren't updating
Hey guys, my alerts don't make any sound on my stream. In my overlay editor if I emulate the event it plays the sounds but it does not translate to my stream. Any idea?
@split totem make sure if you have obs open during changes in the dashboard that you refresh the source. Currently there is not a way for timers to see other timers to delay them being displayed
@hard wharf You got this enabled in the Editor?
@elder sorrel yes i do
@hard wharf do this test for me. Open your overlay link in a normal browser window and have obs open at same time. Go to dashboard and emulate an event. If you hear sound in browser then it would appear your obs is muted
It does not make sound in the browser window
@round jungle which widget are you using? Labels, activities, etc???
@real escarp i think i might be misunderstanding, i launced a browser verision but nothing actually shows up for the alerts
How would i unmute obs?
@sly rapids Please follow our community rules:
- No advertisement or stream promotion
- Respect ALL server members
- No NSFW/NSFL
Thank you
@real escarp just the built in SE editor as a browser source, latest sub im pretty sure its using. I think from memory its a label, i'm at work atm so can't check the exact details
All sorted now thanks to @real escarp ty so much
@round jungle when you get home make sure your latest subscriber widget still has the {name} tag under message in the editor
hello
Trying to add a "Subscriber Count" widget, but it displays "no data" for the {count} value. Anything I can do to get it to work?
Nevermind, forgot to pick a 'Period".
Hello everyone! I tried the import alerts option in Chrome for StreamLabs, and it imports, but none of the test functions pop up any alerts. I then added the browser source to OBS Studio, and still couldn't get alerts to pop up. If anyone has the time, I would greatly appreciate it 🙂
@static apex You can test Alerts via the bell on the lower right corner of the Overlay Editor. Simply go to your Dashboard -> My Overlays -> Pencil/edit button on the overlay. Make sure the "Show Emulated events on stream" option is on to see the alert in OBS/Xsplit https://streamable.com/h6qgy
Are they showing up in the editor, but not the OBS source, or browser plugin (?)?
They are not showing in either.
Needs some tweaking but it is playing and functioning.
I've not tried the importing of alerts from SL to SE...
Oh, I'm an idiot. Somehow ublock had actually hidden the alerts.
How do I tweak, and get them centered?
css style aligning/editing?
I didn't see text settings, but I found that I just needed to set to 800x600
You actually want it at 1920x1080.
How do I get the subcount widget to display the same subcount my twitch dashboard displays?
Thank you for all of your help so far, and I apologize for all the questions. Want to get rid of StreamLabs items, as they are too buggy for me
@strong kernel even if I have the browser source at 800x600?
The browser source itself needs to be set to 1920x1080.
That's the size of your overlay on your account.
@ripe scarab What count are you referring to?
Nevermind, found that there's 2 sub counting widgets.
total subscribers, and subscriber count
I was using subscriber count, I needed to use total subscribers.
I'm using the widget "Bot Counter". How do I reset the counter to 0?
hi can i input NDI output in the stream elements version of obs?
i dont see it under tools
i was watching this video but i dont see NDI output setting
First off, you'll want to update OBS. That's very outdated.
Second, I don't see the OBS.Live plugin in there.
Oh wait.
I'm tired.
That's a screenshot of a YouTube video 😂
@strong kernel I figured out the proper alignment for the widget. However, when I make changes to, say, the cheer alert, even if using my own images/videos, it doesn't save when I press save at the bottom. What am I missing.
Edit the variations.
Oh, wow! I didn't know different bits would be different animations.
is there is feature where i can edit the title of my stream through the app?
I need help
Hi @sharp glacier, Please ask your question(s) or describe the problem you're looking to solve so staff or a support volunteer can assist you as soon as they are available.
Idk how to make overlays to make my stream better
@dapper raft Which app, to be clear?
@sharp glacier You can use premade overlays from the Themes gallery.
@strong kernel twitch

I give up I can’t do this
@dapper raft If you are not seeing the OBS Twitch integrations and have OBS.Live installed, please follow these steps:
- Make sure you are on the latest and greatest version of OBS.Live ( 19.7.14.421 )
- exit OBS (make sure OBS is not running)
- delete %appdata%\obs-studio\plugin_config\obs-browser\obs_profile_cookies
- start OBS.Live
- Settings -> Stream -> disconnect -> connect
Hello Nethyr! Thank you for the help, The main Issue was windows "game mode". unfortunately, one issue still is still unresolved. my audio is choppy (mine and my streams) while gaming and streaming....but not when just gaming. Any ideas? Again, thank you for your time
stream log registers clear.
Always run OBS as administrator.
CAN DO! thank you
hi! I recently changed my name on twitch but the chosen broadcaster for my chat bot is still my old account name. I deleted it under user management but I don't know how to set my new stream name as the broadcaster?
Not trying to be a bother, but I really need help here. Currently completely unable to use my chat bot.
After changing your name, you should take the following steps:
- Part the bot from your channel.
- Log out of StreamElements.
- Log back in.
- Join the bot to your channel.
Do I part the bot by unmodding it on twitch, or is there an option on streamelements' website?
Not on Twitch. On the website.
And you're not unmodding.
You're parting.
With the Part Channel button.
Okay, that's what I assumed. Where is the Part Channel button located?
On the first page you see when you log into the site.
On dashboard? Alright, thank you. I was searching for it in bot settings this entire time.
How do i edit a command
The pencil icon next to it at https://streamelements.com/dashboard/bot/commands/custom
Thank you!
hello again Nethyr, i am still having no luck stopping OBS from causing audio stuttering on my PC audio and stream. any thoughts?
interestingly (I hope this helps) the program causes the issue when it is just open...does not need to be streaming for the PC audio to start to stutter.
try updating your audio driver
thank you i will try that now
just checked and I am already running the newest version. New gaming pc, issue only started about 2 days ago......so
then https://discord.gg/obsproject will probably bne your best place to ask for advice
thank you mitch. sorry for stating this wrong, I use Streamelements.live
OBS.Live is only a plugin for OBS
the issue you are having would be caused by OBS which youll need their support to fix ^-^
Thank you for the help!
how can i disable streamelements from my twitch?
!bot part in chat

@daring grove Welcome to the helpdesk! Please let us know how we can assist you today and a support volunteer or staff member will assist you as soon as they are available. Thank you for your patience.
can someone dm im so confused about streamelemnts stuff
its about my alerts/widgets
also idk if i should be asking here or in obslive
What's up with the alerts/widgets? Are you creating a brand new overlay in the editor or importing overlays?
im importing them from streaml*bs 
but they are not working or im just not doing it right
@daring grove 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
When importing anything from SL to us, it gets created as an overlay.
Just try the above
i am doing it rn
ok
thanks a lot
now i am wondering
if i can change how far the text is from the alert pic?
its super far
That'll be done in the Overlay Editor. https://streamelements.com/dashboard/overlays
Click there & click the pencil at the bottom of the overlay icon to open the editor.
From there: Bottom left you'll see the layers -> Go to your alert widget -> Choose the one you want to edit -> Text Settings
Will be in the Advanced Settings where you can replay your alerts & change the text to get the position right 🙂
uhm sorry to be annoying
but
when i position it
the pic moves with it too
i just want to text close to the pic
but they move together
What option are you using?
If you want to move just the text, just click on the widget -> alert you want to adjust(cogwheel) -> text settings -> advanced -> margin/padding
I'm sorry for having to ask, but can anyone help me with what my settings should look like in a plain old Dell inspiron 5555 .. I keep dropping frames and my viewership is suffering. 😦
@fallen patio Please provide a log from your last stream. To do this, in OBS go to Help > Log Files > Upload Last Log File and paste the link to the log file here.
k
Providing the link here won't change the results i'm looking at.
Provide a previous log file
sry just didnt wanna put my bizzness out there but no worries.... hopefully
Click on "help" -> logs -> show log files
well anyone can google "Dell inspiron 5555" and see the same specs
upload the file here
Hey I have a question. I know how to make !points to be whispered by the bot but actually can't figure out how to do the same with roulette/gamble command. Is it even possible? Do I have to just make a custom command for it and if yes how should it be?
The roulette command can't be made to whisper, but it is planned to be allowed
and can't be made into a custom command
You could technically with an API but it wouldnt be fun or easy afaik
Okay. Thank you so much for your help ^^
What is the issue?
hi
i have 10 followers already
for adding donate it require 10 followers at least
but it say i cant still
why
@zenith widget
You need 10+ followers for G2A Pay

NyaaH_
Just the name is enough
oki

Is it a twitch API problem that gift sub continuations don't trigger an alert? It does on the day the new sub starts but not if they continue early.
There is a sub alert variation for the continuous event.
Hi all, just wondering how i get the sound from the overlays to play on stream? I am using twitch and OBS from a mac.
@candid vortex 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
I have that already. should the sound play on twitch via the overlay, or is it required to be broadcasted through the desktop audio channel?
ok, so the elgato game capture and obs treat the sound differently
on mac im referring to as well
thanks ill check with them. Is the alert meant to play through the desktop audio from OBS and not behind the scenes?
yes
what do you mean?
Donated and the $ stay up on the alert box
let me try and get a screen shot
Im using 2 alert boxes 1 for regular Alerts and also the Tiltify Alert Box which shows Donated all the time
i added the overlay to my obs - nothing flashed
hmmm
I have a clip of what I am talking about
donated in blue pops up and noooooooobody donated it was the alert box loading in
Can i use Stream Elements to stream on mixer?

How stream with internal audio bro
I think this is a question for #helpdesk-mobile
My custom bot name was working during my stream, but not while I'm offline. It reverted back to StreamElements. Is there a reason it changed back? Under current mods I have SE and my custom bot. If i remove SE will it work?
@noble nest are you also using OBS.live?
I had to set up through Ground Control on my PC, but I still stream through SLOBS. I have OBS live set up but haven't made the full move yet
@noble nest custom bot login only works as long as one of our desktop apps are logged in as that custom bot. Due to Twitch API stream elements bot can only connect with a custom bot name if the Streamer is connecting.
So if i close GC then the bot reverts back?
correct same if you were to use OBS.live for custom bot name and closed OBS.live
ah ok got it. Thank you 🙂 I appreciate the help and info!
np
can someone here help me with the overlay creator?
on some of my browser scenes, my background videos disapear after a few minutes and i dont know why
they are all on loop
did you tick shutdown source when not visible on all browser sources?
perhaps it's eating too much memory and stops on it's own
no i didnt but i also have 48 gigs of memory so i dont think so
but i can try that
yeah see if it helps 🙂
thanks
i think that actually is a solution, seems to be working for now
also, anyone know when stream elements will add mixer support?
!mixer

I'm guessing this has been mentioned before, but the Twitch extension StreamElements Leaderboard 'Chat Stats'-leaderboard seems bugged. Not showing me anything as of late!
having trouble with streamelements Extensions
the schedule , how to i activate it , its not showing on my stream
do*
Have you added your Overlays in OBS via Browser Source
its the panel Extensions
You might have accidently Switch to OBS Mode. Click on StreamElements and switch it back to the SE Mode
im not talking about that on your twitch you have panels those like about me etc.. you also have Extensions to put on like keep count of your cheers donations
The Alerts?
Imma let someone else help you
@lament blade When you activate the extension on the panel, you should be able to configure the extension which will let you then configure the schedule portion of the extension
and the panel is activated?
showing only
@dry hare showing only cheers and points but no schedule
good to hear it was that @hearty canyon 
@dry hare got it working
@mellow mantle Click on your alert box in the editor >> Click on the gear next to Tip Alert >> then TTS Settings
thanks for the help
Hey, I'm trying to do Variations for my Subscribers right now in the Overlay Editor.
The default sub works fine, but when I try to test Sub Gift or Community Gifts the text won't get shown. Everything else is shown, and I didn't set something different than from the default Sub Alert
make sure "show subscriber messages" is ticked on them all and ofc save
is the variable {name} there?
Is it possible to make a widget that shows like the last three subscriber and how often they resubscribed?
Seems similar to the Event list Widget I believe @junior mountain
Which you can set it up to show Subs only when they subscribe/resubscribe & show the amount.
Yeah you're right, but its format is weird. I kinda want it like the latest subscriber but to scroll left and show the second person
I was told on twitter to come back here after mentioning the streamelements account in passing. So, I've been running into an issue with my alertbox where that, when I receive a raid, I get 2 notifications on stream. One for the host, and one for the raid. I also see them in ground control, but I'm fine with seeing both in ground control. I had to turn off hosts because I didn't want to get host alerts when I get a raid, but I still want to receive host alerts when there's an actual host.
I have no idea why both of these would kick off alerts >~< (I'm rushing off to work. I'll check back later)
the raids and hosts are basically the same (although have different ways of working). i was under the impression that this wouldnt happen anymore. i can ask the staff.
if i understand you want a host alert when being hosted and a raid alert when being raided?
So i have been trying out streamelements and I really like the song request feature. But it seems when i have a backup playlist playing and someone tries to request a new song it will just skip to the next track on the backup playlist
Oh and I'm not sure if its possible, maybe I'm just to stupid right now, but how can I upload an picture for an Alert and put the text into the image?
Is there a drag/pull possibility?
@junior mountain You will just need to add the Alert Widget -> Choose which Alert(s) you want to change the image & can put the text into the image with the Text Settings
Will be Advanced Text Settings
And I have to move the text with this?
Last Question: Can I set the alert to active to edit it properly?
Correct for the first question.
2nd question: Nah. Afaik will have to keep replaying the alert so you can get the positioning right
Does somebody has good (non-music) alert sounds? Or an pack for that? If I search for Alert Sounds I only find bass boosted music or something like that.
Can always chat https://www.myinstants.com/ if anything catches your eye @frail wharf

thanks, gonna try it out
@tribal ravine 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
Does anyone know what the maximum bitrate for non-affiliates or non-partners is? A friend of mine says that non-affiliates cant stream higher than 3500 but I have known many people who say they stream at 6000 or even 8000
A quick question: Why do we need to check the “Shutdown source when not visible”? I find that it just makes the entire scene take much longer to load when swapping.
huh, i cant find that anywhere on twitch's site
how come so many people recommend tot ry to stream between 4500-6000 then?
can I copy a layer from one overlay to a new one?
in the overlay editor?
yes
Twitch btw doesnt limit at 3500. thats old. twitch's softcap is around 7800-8000. after then you'll be probably capped to 720p 3000 bitrate
to my knowledge no
what a bullshit. i have my webcam and my alerts now setup, but if the alert "fades out" it fades into my face on the webcam, which i dont want. but i want it to be faded downwards
@cinder olive Yeah, ofc. Silly me 😅
People stream at those higher bitrates because they don’t understand the technical ramifications of doing it
@frail wharf yes you can copy a widget from one overlay to a new overlay
But you could also move it around on the existing overlay
If you click the gear next to the alert type after selecting the alert box, you should be able to tinker with the animations etc
Is the Chat Stats tab in the leaderboard extension broken - or has something happened to mine when I changed the name of my channel? Can't remember last time it was working
theyll have to merge the stats of your two names
alerts for store redemptions aren't showing up on stream...is there a step I'm missing?
@unkempt rose Did you add the Store Redemption Widget to your Overlay?
Hello there!
Can someone help me with the alerts? i copy the code from the alert to obs but isnt working =/ (im new in this)
@thin lion 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
thanks for the reply, but it is posible only for the alert? like to followers etc? i ask this because it only say create but i want to use the themes already created
where can i test if its working? like the streamlabs test
@thin lion You can test Alerts via the bell on the lower right corner of the Overlay Editor. Simply go to your Dashboard -> My Overlays -> Pencil/edit button on the overlay. Make sure the "Show Emulated events on stream" option is on to see the alert in OBS/Xsplit https://streamable.com/h6qgy
isnt showing in the obs 😦
is there like a bug report feature in this discord? because this just happened
and it's not just this link. another link requested the same incorrect video
Someone there to help me with the alerts please?
@thin lion They're working in the Editor right? Just not in OBS?
Yes. In the Editor when i test it shows correctly but in OBS is no =/
You have this enabled?
I do @elder sorrel.
The stream is off and im testing in the obs (like i did in the past with the streamlabs)
!ticket 1 isnt working for giveaways
@viscid loom Go to this page: https://streamelements.com/dashboard/bot/commands/default and enable the !enter command (you currently have it disabled)
!ticket is an alias for this command

Hey!
I'm having a problem with banned words.
I have banned the word "salope", but when someone say "salopette" in the tchat, he gets banned.
How can I fix this ?
Basically, not without RegEx.
Basic entries will have the bot search an entire message for the word's presence, even as part of another word.
RegEx has the ability to specify that you're looking for the whole word only, and not a part of a word, but it takes a bit of learning, as it's a kind of language on its own.
ok its fixed thanks for the help! @tight harness
@strong kernel SE should make something for that, but thanks for the reply though
Hello, I would like to know if it's possible to make contest's timer less than 30 minutes. Even if I use the default "5" minutes in the options the timer still starts with 30 minutes. I would like it actually to be only 1 minute but I can't. What am I doing wrong? Thanks in advance for the help!
@echo nova I'm not able to replicate this issue. Can you screenshot the settings you're using?
Sure, I'll use the default settings as an example, so I used this:
And got this:
Also, I noticed that the timer is adding 25 minutes to anything I add as the minutes to bet
So if I choose 1 minute the timer comes out as 26 minutes
Or if I choose 5 minutes to bet, it comes out as 30 minutes
I noticed that after the minutes I choose have passed the bot doesn't allow more bets. I think this is a visual issue, since it also shows at the overlay widget. It may be confusing for the viewers, they'll think this is the timer for them to bet :/
That's interesting. What browser are you using?
Opera
Are you able to try it with Chrome?
I've asked a few colleagues to assist me with trying to replicate your issue, but so far we're not able to get it to happen on our ends.
is there a live sub count for twitch layout?
Check widgets in the editor
New user, trying to test broadcast, added the ?bandwidthtest=true - Streaming through OBS with the addon, yet nothing is streaming live online. Suggestions?
Even if running a test stream?
If you're running a test stream, nothing will be output to your channel with that added
take off "?bandwidthtest=true" and you'll see an output on your channel
ok
Hello, I am trying to update my public profile for my StreamElements. It currently lists an Instagram. I have tried to remove it in the past, as it had my personal page listed. However, whenever I try to remove it, it reported that it couldn't save my changes. I tested changing it from my private handle to this one, which did work. However, there is no instagram by that name.
Is there no way to remove a previously-applied social media from the public profile?
That function is having some issues. It doesn't like having an empty field where there was previously some data. As a "workaround" you can just put instagram.com without anything else.
Okay, thank you!
Hi my chatstats page seems to not be tracking all the emotes in my channel.
How do I get the chat stats page to track the FFZ emotes that's being used in my channel? Currently its only tracking the PogU emote
Can I have you type !emotes update in your chat?
Done that a couple of times before but its still not working for some reason 
I've really been trying to get this one to work and show chat stats.. No luck. Anyone?
On the chatstats page
The BTTV section only tracks
,
and the global bttv emotes.
The FFZ section only tracks
and the global ones
Hi , is there normalisation of volume for media request? Some songs are too quiet! 😦
That's YouTube for you.
Hmm, is there a better source?
No, Media request only works via YouTube.
Oh i saw soundcloud and spotify a while back but spotify was removed as expected due to policies and such.
@jovial holly So which FFZ emote are you trying to track? I see these.
@jovial holly - How did you get it to track messages and emotes at all?
Or maybe you're not talking the extension
Nope, this is on the website
AHH that's probably why mine isn't working.. For some reason a page doesn't exist for my username
I got 49 other FFZ emotes that all has been used but isnt on the list 
@wary beacon ye go to their website and connect your twitch 
@jovial holly I already have! And I've streamed with overlays, chat bots, it's counting points on the leaderboard etc, just not the chat stats
then I have no idea, im a newfrog when it comes to streamelements
If I click on the top banner saying "my dashboard" I get to my dashboard, but the streamelements.com/c/ page doesn't exist for my stream it seems
@wary beacon Please connect your streaming account (Twitch, YouTube, or Facebook) with Discord by going to ⚙ Settings and then Connections here in Discord. https://streamable.com/eg92w
Hey can I do a donation goal bar?
where is that at?
It's a widget you add to your overlay when in the overlay editor. Anything you wish to display on stream is a widget.
where can I click that tho?
In the Widgets tab in the Overlay editor.
When editing an overlay in your account.
Silly question. Is there a hidden setting to determine if !store lists all the available items? In my chat it lists everything, in someone else's it doesn't. 🤔
Having an issue with my WEBM alerts just looping. Not sure how to make it stop except to pause/mute alerts in OBS and change scenes.
What do you mean by looping?
Animation and sound goes off. A couple seconds after it just plays the alert sound. It just keeps going and going until scene change or muting/unmuting alerts.
Do you have a clip or video of the behavior? Otherwise, I'll need you to unpause the alerts so I can test it for myself.
I don't have a clip.
Is it okay if we replay an alert, then?
Yeah
Would you like to replay one of your choice or shall I just pick one randomly?
Seems like it's functioning fine.
You just replayed something three times, I believe?
Yeah now I'm in the main scene and it's not replaying any alerts.
It still appears to be playing on our end. Can you confirm you've got the browser source in the scene you're on, that it's visible, and has the correct properties?
Okay. In the editor the alert is showing, but not on stream. Alerts is visible and on top of other sources.
I am trying to make a custom/edited custom overlay for my Twitch stream, and when I use the launch link and paste it in OBS, it's sized like it is being broadcast on a big screen TV or something. How do I size it for my OBS/monitor size?
And none of my in chat alerts are working at all.
@deep tendon Can I suggest repasting your overlay URL into the browser source properties?
Yep that's what I'm doing. Pretty sure that's the issue.
Huh, and my name got reset here... weird. Oh well.
@deep tendon Make sure you set the browser source properties to 1920x1080.
@hidden grail Ctrl+F to fit a source to your canvas.
Do I do that in OBS?
Yes.
Thank you!
@strong kernel Thanks for your help. I'll be back if the issue somehow comes up again, but hopefully shouldn't.
Hmm... The one seems to have sized properly, but this second one isn't sizing.
hello, i need some help with the API, can someone help me?
sorry, thanks
Yeah, this overlay isn't sizing properly and I don't know why. Something isn't working right.
Is it the overlay template I've chosen?
All of our premade themes are made at 1920x1080.
This one isn't sizing. It's a weird square in the middle of my screen.
Let me stream again and you can see. I did Ctrl+F and this is the size it made it.
That doesn't look to be 1920x1080.
Double check your browser source properties and make sure it is set to 1920x1080.
How do I do that?
Right click>Properties.
Found it!
Yay! That fixed it!
So when I'm ready to switch from my Stream Starting feed to my actual streaming feed, do I just double click the source in OBS?
One click should be enough. I might recommend hotkeys, though.
Heh, okay... Let's see if I can find hotkey set up...
Found a tutorial! Something to work on tomorrow! Also, could someone change my display name in here to teutelquessir? I'd appreciate it. 🙂
Or put it with my name in brackets or some such?
Oh, thanks! ❤
any ideas as to why i'm getting this no matter what command i type
Because you're not putting in what you're editing that command with.
It's !command edit commandname commandresponse
it still doesn't work
my message doesn't even show up if I add what I'm trying to edit
It gave me the same syntax response when I was trying to !command add quityt commandresponse
Screenshot it please?
Also, add won't work when you already have a command with that name.
he hit enter to send the message, and it didnt show up in chat
Nothing in our system can prevent you from sending a message in your chat.
Ok I narrowed it down. Any message I post in my chat with a link causes the message not to appear at all.
any link
Nothing in our system can do that.
is there a way we can create/edit/end contest via chat commands?
@echo nova that method is not currently supported in chat
thanks
am I missing something on the timezone command? I'm looking to set it to Central Time (USA) and have tried ${time.CT} and ${time.CST} and both return 04:55
example of accurate times
$(time.PST8PDT)
${time.Asia/Seoul}
You can specify time zones using locations so LA would be ${time.America/Los_Angeles}
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_tz_database_time_zones
thanks
alright another weird problem... Twitch Stream : Superstevio
we just had a store redemption that got stuck on the overlay
how do i get that to reset
what do you mean stuck?
like the gif popped up that triggers with the redemption. it played the sound effect and now its just the last frame of the gif with text under it saying drdamien redeemed superclap
the text is still moving but the image wont clear away
I might be blind but I don't see anything on the stream 
alright he turned the overlay back on
ooh i see - his entire overlay froze
we tried to do the reload ovelays already but it wont clear out
he will have to delete the browser source and add it again
alright thanks man
hello hello i need some help you guys
actually deleting the browser source is better then deleting the URL in the browser source @deep hound
for some reason my raffle command stoped working
yeah im just having him get the url first so that he wont have to go back to the overlay editor to get it from there
does anyone have any experience with this problem?
Are other commands working @strong dagger
Part the bot from your channel and join it again
how do i do that
right side -> part channel -> join channel
Hello Gentlemen, What would be the correct size for the background of the Store
I have tried 1920x(300-500) and can't seem to find the correct one
?
@jade remnant Sorry my response is very late, but yes. That's the gist of it. What I've noticed, is when I enable both host and raid alerts, both go off for a raid and only the host goes off for the host. Unless this has changed within the past few months, that's my experience with the alert widget.
I have a question, which bot should I get?
@fickle elk Hosts and raids should not trigger from the same person. If that is case, can you let me see a clip of it happening? This has been changed for a few months yes.
@mental meteor We only have 1 bot
But it gives me multiple options tho...
Where?
On the right side
Join Channel
Ok, done.
I just thought that since OBS was just given permission to do stuff on my stream it would mod the bot imediately
But how do I make it respond to commands?
just use a command from your command list

If I choose a command to be a reply, will it be something like this? "@mental meteor (answer)"
Never mind, I have my answer.
But I have another question, how do you get things like overlays and stuff?
@mental meteor 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

Hey, how much CBR(?) Should i use for 720p60?
@zenith widget thanks a Lot!
I'm probably being dumb asf, but hey, we're all beginners once, how do I set up a command or timer so SE will drop a message into chat after X number of minutes?
I think it's through timers but I have no idea and the 'Chat lines' field is throwing my off.
How can I add a Regex in banned words list (@strong kernel) ?
yes it's with timers @torpid hazel and check pinned messages here for a deeper knowledge about them
THANK YOU! ❤
Hello, I would like to ask about !clip command.
Can I set somehow in Steamelements?
The command is set via the widget.
@strong cosmos
@strong cairn there should be a spot on the bottom of the banned group
@zenith widget and can you navigate me where I can find it?
@empty halo Thank you
@zenith widget thank you
@zenith widget Thank you for your help. Last question, Is the clip command somewhere created and I just copy it?
I need help boys
So I have 3 seperate Scene Collectons for games
and on 2 of the three (the one being the first that was created) I cant add new audio devices into the mixer
there is just no option
ok, need a big bit of help, i joined probably about a year ago and got stream setup settings, my pc has reset and its all gone to sh*t... For streaming what settings do i need to set everything too? thanks
Thank you very much!
Hello fellas. I have a problem with bot on my channel after a rename. It is not working even after ~24+ hours. Any ideas?
Hey, please do the following: Click on Part Channel on the dashboard, click on Sign Out, sign back in and then click on Join Channel on the dashboard
omg FeelsStoopid right now. Works fine, thank you 
hi! im new to customizing my overlays but im figuring it out.. is there a way to make text pop up every so often for a reminder to viewers like to follow and or subscribe???
A Timer in chat would do the trick if you're happy with it in the chat, but if you're adamant about having it on the overlay you'd need to make it into an image and then have the image show via the Asset rotator/slideshow widget, or make a custom widget if you know how to code
how do i create a sharelink for an overlay widget ive amended?
Sharelinks are only possible for special accounts.
@lament star, you have been awarded a commendation :star: by @winter cradle for answering a support question. Keep it up! 
Hello i have a question when i use an Item can i delete the message that i use it?
The bot replies if you use the chat command to redeem it instead of the store page, but also in Modules -> Chat Alerts you can enable/disable Redemption chat alerts
The Redemption also disabled
Then i'm guessing you mean the response from the bot to say that the redemption command was successfully received, that isn't able to be disabled, the way to not have that show during a redemption is to use the stream store page directly instead of the chat command
okay thanks!!!\
Thank you 🙂
Hello SE team. 
Is it possible, for example, using RegEx to make a bot respond to any message? The command is cooldown 86400s, so there would be no problem with spam.
I am interested in custom welcome messages for a few users.
Hey I had a question. Is there any way to disable command inputs on the streamelements chat widget? In some other chat overlays you can hide all messages that start with "!", for example.
you can ignore the bot messages for instance @pine tendon
it's on by default afaik
but afaik there's no option for that
OK thanks for the info!
there's a couple suggestions already, upvote the ones u want done https://streamelements.helprace.com/search?space=1&channel=ideas&q=ignore+commands+on+chat+widget thank you 🙂
Hi, i need some help with a custom command, i'm trying to create a command like "!setgame "whatever" " but i can't figure out how to use the variable "${setgame "<game>"}".
no advertising plz @lusty token
there's plenty of ways to get there, that one ain't one of them
@candid wasp there's a template for that already, no need to invent 😄
ok ty
new custom command, drop down menu at templates, choose game, just change the text and leave the variables untouched
hmm wait, wrong info
misread 😄
okay^^
from my understanding you'll have to use prebuilt !setgame command @candid wasp
okay
Howdy - I'm trying to create a command that returns a phrase versus just a single word, similar to nightbot's $(query) variable. I feel like it's SUPER OBVIOUS but I'm not seeing it. Is there a variable I'm missing?
eg. !ban frosted flakes
-> StreamElements banned frosted flakes
@pine tendon If you want, you can use a custom widget and use this custom chat, there's an option to filter out messages that are commands: https://github.com/StreamElements/widgets/tree/master/CustomChat
@scarlet tiger I think you can use something like this to achieve that: https://blog.thefyrewire.com/hi-hey-hello-custom-streamelements-greetings/ - I think a greedy regex would work (definitely needs a long cooldown though)
@woeful wave The variable to get the entire message after the command is $(1:)
@wanton mango Hi, I'll write to your discord server. 
See? Something simple! I need more coffee. Thank you @wanton mango :)
@candid wasp do you want to create command for just 1 or 2 games or?
I'm still looking it up hehe
I think he was trying to recreate the default !setgame command 😄 otherwise the variable is correct. $(setgame Fortnite) will always set the game to Fortnite, so you can do !fortnite to immediately set the game to 
yeah exactly
but how to use it so you can input any other game like the default is
${setgame "<game>"} is the variable
@wanton mango Or here . 😄 The greeting works on certain keywords, but there can be only about 10 of them in a command ... I don't know much about RegEx. How to make bot respond to any message?
Hello guys, sorry for busting in - was looking for a solution but couldn't find one 
Since yesterday the Ground Control app is not starting correctly anymore for me.
It shows up in the task manager but I can't see it anywhere on the desktop and not even with alt+tab.
Didn't change anything on the system and the last time I used was friday. Any ideas?
go to the task manager and kill any instance of bot.exe
There's no bot.exe
@gentle imp It'd be $(setgame "$(1:)") in that case, but functionally it's the same as the default setgame that you suggested, so there's probs not much point in it (unless he was looking to make a different reply or something
)
@wanton mango I used [a-zA-Z] hopefully it will work.
Hi, okay i was trying to recreate the !setgame command, and thefyrewire is right, i just didn't want to type ${setgame idk} but simply type !setgame idk
@scarlet tiger A super greedy operator like .* would match ANY message. Use wisely 
!setgame whatever is the default command behaviour
nice! 😄
@wanton mango Yes, that's what I wanted. User Cooldown 86400s is sufficient. 🤔
that works too, thank you @wanton mango 
@wanton mango Otherwise, thanks for your "Return Filtered Lines", work perfectly. 
Hi - I am having issue with my streamelement OBS. The Live activity feed is missing and the only one I can find is the Twitch Activity Feed which I don't want to use. How do I get the Streamelement Activity back?
in the menu at the top
streamelements > activity feed
if its not there then log out of obs then back in
settings > stream
btw any other idea for my issue? 
I am trying to import my Streamlabs alerts and Deepbot points/commands, but the SL fails and the DB just infinitely loads.
im at work so i dont have access to gc right now to test with, i can have a look when im home
thank you. I tried reinstalling, restarting the pc and now for the final solution going for the latest win10 build 
I give feedback if it suddenly works. Just really random that it shows up in the processes etc but doesn't actually open the window or show in taskbar.
Is there a better way for my viewers to copy or download/view the codes they purchase from my streamElement store? I noticed on Firefox I can’t even select the code. In IE or Edge it’s selectable but doesn’t always let the user select the entire code. Also if the code is longer (like a Guid number); the code isn’t completely visible on the pop up window/div. would it be possible to add a “copy to clipboard” button? Or allow viewers to see the codes they have previously purchased?
the website is developed to work properly with Chrome
viewers can see their redemption history too
you can add your suggestions to the ideas board here or upvote an existing one https://strms.net/ideas
@old fossil have you tried, right click shortcut and run as admin?
if it's showing on your taskbar, click it and press shift+windows+left or right arrow
should force it to rescale and fit one of the screens
Hey i need help. Do overlays work on Xbox?
consoles cant have overlays.
you would need to stream from your pc to have them
@gentle imp Doesn't show on taskbar sadly if it would I would have tried the resize thing already. Starting it with admin didn't do anything different.
Ok how do you do timed commands?
@undone hornet check 3rd pinned message here
Top right corner of discord the pin
Is there a way to prevent Streamelements tweets being broadcasted into my Chat?
You can disable that in the settings for the bot iirc
yes
Know this is a weird question but is there a way to get an older build of the ground control?
@charred pollen https://streamelements.com/dashboard/bot-modules twitter module, remove streamelements name from there
Thank you @gentle imp !!
Hey! The default !subs command doesn't seem to be working. Right now its says that there are 0 subs? Anyone else having the same problem? I've tried removing and adding the bot but that didn't help.
NGL, I didn't know that was even a command
mine's working correctly
its one of their template commands
Hmm okay. Thank you. I'll try deleting and adding it again.
you are an affiliate?
I'm a mod for a partner streamer
ahh hehe
It still shows 0 subs. Hmm
Well in that case mine doesn't work at all lol
Okay.. any ideas for a fix?
is it using this variable? ${channel.subs}
Yes
This is the template command: "We currently have ${channel.subs} Subscribers PogChamp"
yeah, same I'm using, works fine for me, I know it takes a while to populate but should work fine, unless tehre's some issue I'm unaware
was there any name changes?
yeah 😦
I'm asking, if someone knows of a solution or if there's an issue they'll let you guys know
Awesome.. thank you
may I know the streamers name plz?
MarieWatson
ty 🙂
works in my channel as well

@flat cloud do you have access to her SE dashboard
Uhm yeah I should
can i dm you?
Sure
@gentle imp is there a link I can provide my viewers that will take them to their redemptions without needing to modify the link you provided? I’m assuming “/account/“ needs to be replaced with their actual account name correct?
@gentle imp nevermind we just tested the link and I was wrong to assume! Thanks again
Anyone know how to make the black transparent?
How do you set up the 'thank you for follow' text in chat?
@native moat you can set this up in the Bot modules here: https://streamelements.com/dashboard/bot/modules
thank you so much!
Anytime 🙂
Problem solved. Logging out and back in solved it. !subs works perfectly again
are alerts down at the moment ?
was getting them
but no i'm not
little bit weird
We're investigating this issue currently
thanks was going to ask the same
Hello ya'll! 😄 Are cheer alerts down? Cos i cant seem to get any notifcation if people cheer in my stream and when i do the test on the StreamElements website it works just fine?
Read just above
Ok thx ❤
Does anyone know how to check a stream to see if something im playing will run smoothly or if it will just lag the second i start it?
cuz im trying to play a video on stream through my streamelements OBS but im not sure if it will just be lagging too much to be able to watch
you're trying to play what kind of video?
just a video file i have it set as a media source on OBS
you can use bandwidth test and just keep an eye on your stats window in obs for frames
if it's a local file, it won't cause any more issue than playing a game
well sometimes i play games and it says "dropped frames' are zero but the stream will be lagging REALLY badly
as in like skipped frames instead
probably need to read up on bitrates
im super technologically unadvanced lol
had a host and a sub and it's not showing in my ground control or on the website
@drowsy basin 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 with at least 1+ viewer
- All auto host events with at least 1 viewer (only from a channel that just went offline)
Note: If you see "X channel has hosted you" with no viewers on the back, that is considered an offline host or a host with 0 viewers, we do not show these.
if i ran the video and started a bandwith test stream is there possibilities for the log file to say if it skipped any frames or anything if i post the log here?
it will show you on the stats panel if you open it
Is there a way to create a couple of bots that I can give points to over the course of the month? I want my viewers to be able assign themselves to a bot, and throughout the month give the bot points based on how my viewers answer trivia questions. Then at the end of the month, whichever bot has accumulated the most points wins, and all the viewers associated with that bot will get a set number of points towards a giveaway. @round bramble
Where is the stats panel exactly? @jade remnant
view > docks > stats
What part am I lookin at to see if it skips any or lags?
@vivid mango@analog hawk @inland knoll twitch events are back
this part on the right
So if that number doesn’t change I should be all set?
if the encoder and/or render lag goes up then its an issue, the fps will drop also
So if it stays at 15/283727272 then I’m good? The second number was just random lol
And skipped frames stayed at 0
And FPS didn’t stop
Drop*
the first counter is how many frames have been missed
the second is out of how may frames in total
15/2000 is 15 frames of 2000 have been missed
if its low like that then its probable nothing to worry about
Also is it normal for the average time to render a frame to fluctuate from 3.0ms to like 3.1-3.2
yes, but that depends on the load on your pc
how heavy the game is, what is running in the background, how much is going on the screen
and also what orsuna said
Thanks for the help guys I’m just really bad at technology lol
So let’s say I start playing a game and the numbers start rising for skipped frames etc what would be a fix?
If the graphics are set on low and FPS is capped to 30 on game and obs
Would it be just lowering the nitrate?
Bitrate*
you have an eight sided dice to roll?
😂😂😂
it depends on so many factors that it's almost impossible to give you a definitive answer
could be temperature of the pc, no vsync, CPU/GPU cant handle whats going on, could be bandwidth/internet/connection to server
best to just upload the log from that session here https://h4ndy.eu/obslog and it will tell you
it depends on your CPU, GPU, Internet upload speed, RAM, hard drive
Oooof
StOp CoPyInG mE
if you're running an e-machine, don't stream
if you have an i5, 540p is probably your best resolution without taxing your system
if you're running an i7, start at 720p60 and see how it works
Ouch that low quality?
unless you're running a 2080Ti and the NVENC encoder....yeah
don't kill your CPU
but usually you're not using a 2080Ti with an i5
most people that have a 2080Ti also spent their annual salary on a 9900k
Hmmm so the 540p is the what? Output canvas res?
yes
Is that gonna be horrendously pixelated?
and I did it from a mac!
My computer is the ancient part haha
what GPU do you have?
I wish I knew where to see that LOL
Mhm
yeah...I'd start with 540p to be honest, but you can also somewhat modify your encoder settings to give you a little better quality at 540p so it will be crystal clear since you are running your stream at such a low resolution
How do I do that?
at worst case it'd be like watching amazon prime video at the lowest settings
umm...i'm not familiar with AMD encoder options
Lol I don’t know how that reference looks
Is it hella pixelated? Haha
If I hit “start recording” would it record the video at that resolution for me to see what it looks like?
yeah it should
So if I’m streaming the game and the frames missed due to rendering lag is increasing, that’s gonna cause lag on stream? As well as my FPS keeps fluctuating
Hello! I have an issue with the StreamElements Leaderboards extension. Can anyone help out?
@pine goblet Welcome to the helpdesk! Please let us know how we can assist you today and a support volunteer or staff member will assist you as soon as they are available. Thank you for your patience.
Yes, @desert sapphire unfortunately it's just a bit too much for your pc to handle gaming and streaming at the same time. It can't keep up with it all.
Well, in the Subs section of the extension, it seems that it does not show all my subs (and the number of months they've subbed) and it doesnt show any of the gifters
Why? Is there a limit?
We’ll see @obtuse patio it only dropped frames during a cutscene but now that I’m in the game it doesn’t move anymore and I’m not dropping any frames
Yeah, your game and obs are fighting for resources to render. So when the game spikes with its resource needs, that's when OBS suffers. That's why it seems random.
Quick question, on stream elements there’s a subscriber widget you can place on your overlay. Whenever I gain a subscriber it updates automatically, whenever I lose one it stays stagnant and I have to update it personally on the website. Do you guys experience the same thing, are you forced to update your subscriber count personally ONLY when you lose subs in order to keep it up to date?
@upper talon Is this regarding a sub goal widget?
Yup
So, goals are not tied to your total. They're counters.
They just go up.
Widgets like "Total subscribers" are the ones that will tie into your actual aggregates from Twitch.
Got ok, ty @strong kernel
If you feel daring, there's custom widget options that'll allow you to make a goal that works via the aggregates, but that'd be up to you to get it going and keeping it working.
GUYS ! (I'm french but anywat , i can speak English), I use Streamelements for my donnation, but ! I don't know how to link the Alert with Streamlabs !!!!
StreamElements and Streamlabs do not communicate data with each other. We're competitors.
Oh okay, so if i want to show my donation i will have op use the systems of Streamlabs, or I will have to switch on Streamelements
Yes. StreamElements alerts are triggered by the StreamElements tipping page. Streamlabs alerts are triggered by the Streamlabs donation page. There's no way to criss-cross them so they trigger our system or vice versa.
Hi! This does not really affect twitch, but I have a general question about alerts. I am setting up alert variations for follow alerts at the moment. One of the videos is in a different dimension compared to the others. Is it possible to change the alertbox (or the video dimension itself) for just one variation. It is maybe possible with the HTML edit function, but I think the code lines given are to basic for my knowledge. I have to add the image source myself I guess and then change the size? Thank you very much.
is there any way to change the chat widget text font to white?
nvm, i finally found it, took 30 minutes to find that circle lol
It's an additional bot role that you can use as an extra layer of access for certain bot commands. Such as if you only want some of your mods able to do something with your stream.
okay ty
Hello there! I have been having an issue with my chatstats showing. Would there be any way of getting assistance with this? Much appreciated in advance.
My Twitch name is TJ_Skee . The error in StreamElements says 404-Page not found.
have you changed your name?
Ah, possibly it was changed while i had StreamElements. It was formerly "tried_n_tru" I believe

so in simple you have to set up an array of coordinance for the wire frame out line and the image, and the bits to drop with in to the wire frame with in
yes
can you tell me why my three alerts work when I test them, yet when a raid, host or sub happens I don't get the alert. Did I forget to link my stream elements to twitch could that be it
and if so were do I need to go to, to get that done
I hope that did not come off rude, as I did not mean it that way.
When did they stop working?
@zenith widget it works now. Was it a bug and you fixed it? Either way, thanks 
I didn't touch anything
yesterday
yesterday as in ~10 hours ago or so?
they still test good to my obs and they appear on my machine here
might have been not so sure but during my stream I go hosted and did not get a notice
the Alerts I have have on here are different for a reason because I wanted thos to standd out different then the others.
Did the host have any viewers as in "X channel just hosted you with 10000 viewers"?
We had a minor issue ~10 hours ago with sub and cheer alerts, which was fixed as soon as we got the 1st report.
The issue might have also affected the hosts and raids as well.
@grave lance 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 with at least 1+ viewer
- All auto host events with at least 1 viewer (only from a channel that just went offline)
Note: If you see "X channel has hosted you" with no viewers on the back, that is considered an offline host or a host with 0 viewers, we do not show these.
It might explain the sub alert missing if its missing in the activity feed as well
if you saw the "X person re/subbed"
in the chat regardless
0oh ok there are people who host me to get lumite points
I dont notice how many they send
thank you for your help in this matter
dont mind my question anymore, i got it figured out
Sorry, I forgot about your query 
I have a Question about the automatically Tags, when you pick up a Category for your stream, since a couple days, i dont get any more "automatically" inserted Tags, only the Choosing own dedicated. Could that be a Bug?
That should be a twitch thing as we don't have access to the tags.
Afaik
Twitch hasn't opened the tags system yet to developers.
Aah it is open, but I don't think we utilize it
Idk, what is it, everytime when im switching in OBS the Category Tag, it doesnt make any changes anymore, also on twitch. :/ (But im not sure if someone else has this problem too.)
It hasn't been reported, but best thing to do is, to go to the twitch dashboard and change the tags there
I tried, the same problem
If you are unable to change your tags via twitch's own dashboard, then I have no idea what the problem is tbh
Im also unable to change my own tags

Guys, I was streaming Remnant on Friday and the games was 'lagging' for my viewers, but for me was 100% clean, smooth, I saw on process, and my CPU was on 75% with OBS, I saw a lot of things on internet but don't saw anything to solve properly the thing, maybe you guys saw some people with the same problem? It seems to be something simple but I can't find with so many random tutorials on internet, btw I stream at 3500 bitrates, and I have 10mb of upload (don't know if matters)
@ancient otter Please provide a log from your last stream. To do this, in OBS go to Help > Log Files > Upload Last Log File and paste the link to the log file here.
Here's my log file: https://obsproject.com/logs/39so2JYWCr5zf4mq
So, should I change my bitrate for little bit up like 4k or 5k?

or
