@swift parcel It's just the red underlining where the text goes when you fill it in and when I click connect it does nothing.

@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

strong kernel
#

User cooldown is per item, not throughout the whole store.

tawny bay
#

per item

#

it's 1 item and it's ignoring it each time

#

no matter the cooldown number

strong kernel
#

Who is ignoring it? You? A mod?

tawny bay
#

Normal viewers

strong kernel
#

Do you have a clip?

tawny bay
#

Mods, vip, no roles

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

strong kernel
#

@tawny bay Please have a normal viewer recreate the bug if possible.

#

It looks like it was possible because you deleted and recreated the item.

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

round jungle
#

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

hard wharf
#

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?

real escarp
#

@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

elder sorrel
hard wharf
#

@elder sorrel yes i do

real escarp
#

@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

hard wharf
#

It does not make sound in the browser window

real escarp
#

@round jungle which widget are you using? Labels, activities, etc???

hard wharf
#

@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?

@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 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 🙂

round brambleBOT

#

Are they showing up in the editor, but not the OBS source, or browser plugin (?)?

They are not showing in either.

#

I've not tried the importing of alerts from SL to SE...

static apex
#

Oh, I'm an idiot. Somehow ublock had actually hidden the alerts.

#

How do I tweak, and get them centered?

ripe scarab
#

css style aligning/editing?

strong kernel
#

Text settings, Advanced tab, play with the margins.

#

And font size, looks like.

static apex
#

I didn't see text settings, but I found that I just needed to set to 800x600

strong kernel
#

You actually want it at 1920x1080.

ripe scarab
#

How do I get the subcount widget to display the same subcount my twitch dashboard displays?

static apex
#

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?

strong kernel
#

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?

ripe scarab
#

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.

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

strong kernel
#

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 😂

lament blade
#

well thats not my obs

#

i was just asking how do i get to that setting

strong kernel
#

That's a plugin.

#

You'll need to install it.

static apex
#

@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.

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

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?

frozen pilot
#

Not trying to be a bother, but I really need help here. Currently completely unable to use my chat bot.

strong kernel
#

After changing your name, you should take the following steps:

  1. Part the bot from your channel.
  2. Log out of StreamElements.
  3. Log back in.
  4. Join the bot to your channel.
frozen pilot
#

Do I part the bot by unmodding it on twitch, or is there an option on streamelements' website?

strong kernel
#

Not on Twitch. On the website.

#

And you're not unmodding.

#

You're parting.

#

With the Part Channel button.

frozen pilot
#

Okay, that's what I assumed. Where is the Part Channel button located?

strong kernel
#

On the first page you see when you log into the site.

frozen pilot
#

On dashboard? Alright, thank you. I was searching for it in bot settings this entire time.

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

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

elder sorrel

What's up with the alerts/widgets? Are you creating a brand new overlay in the editor or importing overlays?

daring grove

im importing them from streaml*bs jinsoulcry

When importing anything from SL to us, it gets created as an overlay.

oh

i activated overlay in the desk app

Just try the above

daring grove

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

elder sorrel
#

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 🙂

daring grove
#

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

zenith widget
#

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

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

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.

round brambleBOT
#

@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

candid vortex
#

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?

zenith widget
#

browser sources use the default desktop audio

#

to play the sound

candid vortex
#

ok, so the elgato game capture and obs treat the sound differently

#

on mac im referring to as well

zenith widget
#

well thats different and you might have to ask in the OBS discord for that

candid vortex
#

thanks ill check with them. Is the alert meant to play through the desktop audio from OBS and not behind the scenes?

zenith widget

yes

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?

real escarp
#

@noble nest are you also using OBS.live?

noble nest
#

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

real escarp
#

@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.

noble nest
#

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

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

gentle imp
#

make sure "show subscriber messages" is ticked on them all and ofc save

frail wharf
#

still doesnt work

#

it shows the sub message now but not the name and all

gentle imp
#

is the variable {name} there?

junior mountain
#

Is it possible to make a widget that shows like the last three subscriber and how often they resubscribed?

frail wharf
#

{sender} hat {name} ein Sub geschenkt!

#

thats the line

#

and it shows nothing

elder sorrel
#

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.

junior mountain
#

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

fickle elk
#

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)

jade remnant
#

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?

eternal hull
#

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

junior mountain
#

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?

elder sorrel
#

@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

junior mountain
#

Last Question: Can I set the alert to active to edit it properly?

elder sorrel
#

Correct for the first question.

2nd question: Nah. Afaik will have to keep replaying the alert so you can get the positioning right

junior mountain
#

Damn.

#

Thank you very much @elder sorrel

elder sorrel
#

No worries

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.

How to add chat box in se obs?

@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

cinder olive
#

3500

#

you can set it to whatever you want

#

twitch limits to 3500

viscid valve
#

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.

lament blade
#

huh, i cant find that anywhere on twitch's site

cinder olive
#

that would be a question for OBS @viscid valve

#

!obs

lament blade

how come so many people recommend tot ry to stream between 4500-6000 then?

cinder olive
frail wharf
#

can I copy a layer from one overlay to a new one?

cinder olive
#

in the overlay editor?

frail wharf
#

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

cinder olive
#

to my knowledge no

frail wharf
#

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

viscid valve
#

@cinder olive Yeah, ofc. Silly me 😅

dry hare
#

People stream at those higher bitrates because they don’t understand the technical ramifications of doing it

cinder olive
dry hare
#

@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

wary beacon
#

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

cinder olive
#

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?

ooof i don't think so

thank you!

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)

round brambleBOT
#

@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

thin lion
#

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

Someone there to help me with the alerts please?

@thin lion They're working in the Editor right? Just not in OBS?

thin lion
#

Yes. In the Editor when i test it shows correctly but in OBS is no =/

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 ?

strong kernel
#

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

echo nova

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!

strong kernel
#

@echo nova I'm not able to replicate this issue. Can you screenshot the settings you're using?

echo nova
#

Sure, I'll use the default settings as an example, so I used 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 :/

strong kernel
#

That's interesting. What browser are you using?

echo nova
#

Opera

strong kernel
#

Are you able to try it with Chrome?

echo nova
#

sure, just a sec

#

@strong kernel I got the same results with Chrome

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?

strong kernel
#

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.

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

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. 🤔

deep tendon
#

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.

strong kernel
#

What do you mean by looping?

deep tendon
#

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.

strong kernel
#

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.

deep tendon
#

I don't have a clip.

strong kernel
#

Is it okay if we replay an alert, then?

deep tendon
#

Yeah

strong kernel
#

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?

deep tendon
#

Yeah now I'm in the main scene and it's not replaying any alerts.

strong kernel
#

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?

deep tendon
#

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.

strong kernel
#

@deep tendon Can I suggest repasting your overlay URL into the browser source properties?

deep tendon
#

Yep that's what I'm doing. Pretty sure that's the issue.

hidden grail
#

Huh, and my name got reset here... weird. Oh well.

strong kernel
#

@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.

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.

strong kernel
#

That doesn't look to be 1920x1080.

hidden grail
#

It's supposed to be the countdown gray template.

#

Is it my resolution?

#

Double check your browser source properties and make sure it is set to 1920x1080.

hidden grail
#

How do I do that?

strong kernel
#

Right click>Properties.

hidden grail
#

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...

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?

zenith widget
#

@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

mental meteor
#

But it gives me multiple options tho...

#

mental meteor
#

Ok, done.

zenith widget
#

The list of 'bots' you saw is the import tool

#

not which bot to use

mental meteor
#

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?

zenith widget
#

just use a command from your command list

mental meteor
#

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?

round brambleBOT
#

@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

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

Hello i have a question when i use an Item can i delete the message that i use it?

tight harness
#

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

south sparrow
#

The Redemption also disabled

tight harness
#

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

but how to use it so you can input any other game like the default is

${setgame "<game>"} is the variable

@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 thnk )

@wanton mango I used [a-zA-Z] hopefully it will work.

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?

gentle imp
#

the website is developed to work properly with Chrome

#

viewers can see their redemption history too

#

@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

You can disable that in the settings for the bot iirc

yes

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.

obtuse patio
#

NGL, I didn't know that was even a command

gentle imp
#

mine's working correctly

flat cloud
#

its one of their template commands

#

Hmm okay. Thank you. I'll try deleting and adding it again.

gentle imp
#

you are an affiliate?

flat cloud
#

I'm a mod for a partner streamer

gentle imp
#

ahh hehe

flat cloud
#

It still shows 0 subs. Hmm

gentle imp
#

should show what he sees on twitch dashboard

#

since it's where the info is got from

obtuse patio
#

Well in that case mine doesn't work at all lol

flat cloud
#

Okay.. any ideas for a fix?

gentle imp
#

is it using this variable? ${channel.subs}

flat cloud
#

Yes

#

This is the template command: "We currently have ${channel.subs} Subscribers PogChamp"

gentle imp
#

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?

flat cloud
#

No

#

Its very odd 😄

gentle imp
#

yeah 😦

#

I'm asking, if someone knows of a solution or if there's an issue they'll let you guys know

flat cloud
#

Awesome.. thank you

may I know the streamers name plz?

@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?

analog hawk
#

Ok thx ❤

desert sapphire
#

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

dry hare
#

you're trying to play what kind of video?

desert sapphire
#

just a video file i have it set as a media source on OBS

jade remnant
#

you can use bandwidth test and just keep an eye on your stats window in obs for frames

dry hare
#

if it's a local file, it won't cause any more issue than playing a game

desert sapphire
#

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

dry hare
#

probably need to read up on bitrates

desert sapphire
#

im super technologically unadvanced lol

drowsy basin
#

had a host and a sub and it's not showing in my ground control or on the website

round brambleBOT
#

@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.
desert sapphire
#

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?

jade remnant
#

it will show you on the stats panel if you open it

daring vigil
#

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

desert sapphire
#

Where is the stats panel exactly? @jade remnant

jade remnant
#

view > docks > stats

desert sapphire
#

What part am I lookin at to see if it skips any or lags?

serene granite
#

@vivid mango@analog hawk @inland knoll twitch events are back

jade remnant
desert sapphire
#

So if that number doesn’t change I should be all set?

jade remnant
#

if the encoder and/or render lag goes up then its an issue, the fps will drop also

desert sapphire
#

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*

jade remnant
#

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

desert sapphire
#

Also is it normal for the average time to render a frame to fluctuate from 3.0ms to like 3.1-3.2

dry hare
#

3ms is near real-time

#

nothing to worry about

jade remnant
#

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

desert sapphire
#

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*

jade remnant
#

you have an eight sided dice to roll?

desert sapphire
#

😂😂😂

dry hare
#

it depends on so many factors that it's almost impossible to give you a definitive answer

jade remnant
#

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

dry hare
#

it depends on your CPU, GPU, Internet upload speed, RAM, hard drive

jade remnant
#

OI

#

😂

#

no copying

dry hare
#

there's so many factors that we can't give a "good" explanation

#

stop copying me

desert sapphire
#

Oooof

jade remnant
#

StOp CoPyInG mE

dry hare
#

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

desert sapphire
#

Ouch that low quality?

dry hare
#

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

desert sapphire
#

Hmmm so the 540p is the what? Output canvas res?

dry hare
#

yes

desert sapphire
#

Is that gonna be horrendously pixelated?

dry hare
#

shouldn't be

#

i streamed 540p on a 1.25Mb upload connection and was fine

desert sapphire
#

We’ll see my upload speed is like 19mb lol

#

My computer is just 7 years old

dry hare
#

and I did it from a mac!

desert sapphire
#

My computer is the ancient part haha

#

what gen i5?

#

#

#

#

#

#

#

I wish I knew where to see that LOL

#

#

desert sapphire
#

oh it’s a

#

AMD Radeon R9 200 series

#

Lol ancient af

dry hare
#

if you say 3Dfx Voodoo2 we gonna have issues

#

ok

#

R9 200 series

desert sapphire
#

Mhm

dry hare
#

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

desert sapphire
#

How do I do that?

dry hare
#

at worst case it'd be like watching amazon prime video at the lowest settings

#

umm...i'm not familiar with AMD encoder options

desert sapphire
#

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?

dry hare
#

yeah it should

desert sapphire
#

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?

round brambleBOT
#

@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.

obtuse patio
#

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.

pine goblet
#

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?

desert sapphire
#

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

obtuse patio
#

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.

upper talon
#

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?

strong kernel
#

@upper talon Is this regarding a sub goal widget?

upper talon
#

Yup

strong kernel
#

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.

upper talon
#

Got ok, ty @strong kernel

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 !!!!

strong kernel
#

StreamElements and Streamlabs do not communicate data with each other. We're competitors.

tepid prawn
#

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

strong kernel
#

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.

livid stump
#

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.

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.

ok just wanted to know, is it as simple as uploading a new image for a tip cup or do i have or modify the css as well

@marsh canyon your not the only one having this issue I have three alerts set up on SE and they do not seem to go off. yet every thing else seems to work

faint granite
#

so, i have a custom overlay, and it shows my new overlay, but also displays a black screen, hope people here can help

zenith widget
#

@solemn crater Still having this issue?

#

@grave lance You will have to adjust the wireframe of the new cup image as well.

grave lance
#

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

zenith widget
#

yes

grave lance
#

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 lirikH

I didn't touch anything

#

yesterday

zenith widget
#

yesterday as in ~10 hours ago or so?

grave lance
#

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.

zenith widget
#

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
#

I dont know is there a min requiremnet for host alerts

#

that outage might explain it

round brambleBOT
#

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

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

That should be a twitch thing as we don't have access to the tags.

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
