(In Good Way)

gentle imp
#

that's why I was asking where were you setting the transparency since there's no option

#

gg 😄

regal breach
#

@gentle imp Haha. I was thinking that opacity would be the option. But, yeah! 😛

#

Thanks everyone for the help.

gentle imp
#

glad it's sorted, ty @jade remnant

regal breach
#

By the way, is there any way I could make something where it will have a bubble around the message?

#

Instead of whole widget background?

#

So the bubble and text would hide using this: Messages fade after 30 seconds

tight harness
#

Sounds like something you could achieve with some custom coding

regal breach
#

@tight harness Do we have option to do so with StreamElements and Custom Coding?

#

I mean, How do I apply my custom coding?

tight harness
regal breach
#

Hmm, But. I'm talking about the Chat 😦

tight harness
#

Ohh, gotcha

regal breach
#

Any idea what to do?

#

I think this CSS Editor in Chat would be dope.

tight harness
#

Probably would need to use a Custom Widget for this, you should really ask about custom coding in #dev-chat 👍

regal breach
#

Okay. I'll see. Thanks @tight harness ❤

sage dirge
#

can someone help me with the chat dock?

#

i was messing around with the settings and now it is my entire twitch profile and not just the chat dock lmao.. idk how to fix it. i cant find "pop out chat" or whatever i need to click for the simple fix

lament blade
#

you mean you dont see the chat at all anymore?

#

maybe under the StreamElements option unclick and click chat again

harsh sluice
#

So have my webcam on 2 scenes. There setup and there working fine....however, when i add another video capture device on a new scene the webcam doesn't show....I also tried copy and pasting the ones that are working in my other scenes into the new scene and still nothing not sure whats going on restarted obs.live 4 times didn't change anything...will just have to stick with the scenes that are currently working and figure this out later....

real escarp
#

@harsh sluice can I DM you

iron barn
#

Yo what the hell

#

Why did my sub not get counted

#

I had a viewer subinng and its not in the dashboard at all

#

I can't even add the name manually

tight harness
#

Did they share their sub?

iron barn
#

What is that

tight harness
#

!share

round brambleBOT
iron barn
#

So ppl need to share it to show?

tight harness
#

Yes

iron barn
#

Isn't that a big BS move

tight harness
#

Excuse me?

iron barn
#

I mean every other service will get it regardless

#

How difficult was it to do it the same way

#

Why not just add the option for the feature

lament blade
#

sadly we cant do anything about that, thats something for twitch

iron barn
#

wdym its something for twitch, then how do other services do it

cedar lynx
#

it's the same for Streamlabs: "If a someone subs and doesn't share the sub, on their end after they reload the stream; ∴ Unfortunately, no alert/notification will be shown on our end, due to API limitations."

lament blade
#

^

iron barn
#

When did that change

tight harness
#

A long time ago

oblique steeple
#

Ask / Blame Twitch

lament blade
#

couple of months if im correct

cedar lynx
#

and generally speaking, Twitch API changes a lot

iron barn
#

I haven't streamed since May so I guess it makes sense

#

Yeah sorry about that I just thought it was only SE

#

can a viewer share it when ever?

cedar lynx
#

should be able to once it goes through, yes

iron barn
#

I mean I ended the stream and all now

#

can he do it next time he pops in

tight harness
#

They can refresh their page if they don't see it immediately, and they do get some time to share it before it goes yes

iron barn
#

Yeah as I'm saying I ended the stream

#

can I add the event manually?

tight harness
#

You can't manually add subs, no, they'll need to share it

iron barn
#

I'm pretty sure that's not from Twitch side

lament blade
#

you have to share it in the twitch chat

#

it displays in a box on top of the chat

iron barn
#

yeah I get that, but why can't I add the list manually

cedar lynx
#

you could just go in writing anyone's info there who didn't actually sub if that were a feature

iron barn
#

but u can do that with follows

#

and tips

#

or did I just import it from streamlabs

tight harness
#

You can change the Latest labels, you can't add people to the Recent labels unless they come through our system, which only happens if they share it

iron barn
#

yeah I see I might have just added it from importing it from streamlabs for donations

#

I'll tell viewers now on since I didn't know

#

ty anyway I guess

tight harness
#

👍

lament blade
#

no worries 😄

iron barn
#

Yeah twitch is just dumb

#

Now that I'm here asking

#

Is there a way that the scene transitions are smoother?

#

The overlays take a while to load

cedar lynx
#

you could use Studio Mode before transitioning

iron barn
#

hmmm

#

I usually just have it in a hotkey

cedar lynx
#

as do I, but Studio Mode pre-loads the scene elements so that's the way to go if you're wanting everything to be loaded up first

bleak geode
#

Studio mode really is the way to go

iron barn
#

Let me try it

bleak geode
#

How’s your cpu usage on obs?

iron barn
#

not more than 15%

#

sometimes 20%

#

studio uses more cpu doesnt it

cedar lynx
#

yeah you wouldn't want to sit on studio mode the whole stream. it's loading in two scenes so naturally yes, it would use more

iron barn
#

wont rlly bother if it takes a bit to load then

feral rose
#

I'm not sure where to put this cuz it relates to StreamElement's own overlays section

with regards to the alertbox widget, is there a way to get back the default alertbox chime sound after we've tried a different sound file?

strong kernel
#

Actually, there is.

real escarp
#

I stand corrected

strong kernel
#

It's much better with undoing position changes but I believe it can help with this as well if you've only just done the change and press the undo button.

feral rose
#

there is an undo button, but that's not what i need
i need to be able to reselect the default alertbox sound after testing different sounds with viewers

#

alternatively, i don't mind uploading a copy of the default sound myself if needed

strong kernel
#

Unfortunately, there's no option to revert to the default sound after changing off of it. If you haven't made too many changes, you could delete the alertbox and add a new one, which will come in with all the defaults.

feral rose
#

that is less than ideal since future changes would require me maintaining an increasing number of backups for my overlay changes over time

it anybody has a copy of the default sound, know what its title is, or where i can acquire it myself, I'd appreciate any help in acquiring my own copy so i can upload it myself for future ease of access

#

got it, thanks

#

now i have another problem, StreamElement's website is refusing all ogg file uploads...

strong kernel
#

What browser are you using?

feral rose
#

firefox currently
i've tested it and it accepted jpeg and mp3 files
but not ogg files for some reason

#

tested it with Chrome and it accepted my ogg file there
not sure why the website and firefox aren't playing nice with each other for ogg files specifically, but oh well

strong kernel
#

In general, you'll have the easiest time with the website using Chrome. It's optimized for Chromium to keep it in line with OBS browser sources.

feral rose
#

noted, i'll consider using Chrome as my default browser for StreamElement's website in the future

ebon salmon
#

yo

#

is there a way to change stream elements donation name link@

#

?

#

like the name/tip

real escarp
#

the url is based off of your username, have you changed your username recently?

ebon salmon
#

so if i change username it will automatically change or something?

real escarp
#

you may need to log out of Stream Elements and log back in to see the change

ebon salmon
#

oh ight thx

somber warren
#

i have a problem... when i want to set a donation goal the start amout doesnt reset, any one that knows why?

cedar lynx
#

you can edit that under the Data > Goals area in the overlay editor

somber warren
#

Thank you ❤

cedar lynx
urban mason
#

If I enter my PayPal email for tips, will viewers be able to see that email? I can see that the SE.Pay description mentions "allowing you to accept tips from various payment methods without revealing any personal information to the tipper", so does this mean that PayPal will reveal personal information?

oblique steeple
#

SE.Pay and PayPal are two differents things.

urban mason
#

I am aware of that

strong kernel
#

It could, potentially, if you're not careful. You want to be sure you turn your Paypal account into a Business account, and use it like one, it should use your business information rather than your personal information.

urban mason
#

awesome, thanks for the info

#

so follow up question: it seems like a paypal business account requires proof of being a business. I realize this isn't really a streamelements question, but does that mean I would need to go through all the paperwork to legally start business in my home state? Is this what other streamers do?

#

also i totally understand if you can't answer that

strong kernel
#

Full time streamers are effectively self-employed.

urban mason
#

i figured, thanks. do you have any info regarding people who stream as a side job or part time? I'm not sure that the company I work for would be super excited for me to also be self-employed lol
edit: never mind I've figured it out now. Thanks for being so helpful!

bleak geode
#

@iron barn do you have a stinger transition set up? Those tend to help cover the small load time between scenes

iron barn
#

@bleak geode yes 600ms

#

Might increase it even more

bleak geode
#

Do you have a capture of the delay you’re talking about. They generally shouldn’t take that long

halcyon falcon

addpoints not working. Says (user) not found

#

You knew my stupidity hahaha

#

Thank you

strong kernel
#

Just experience with knowing the quirks. 🙂

lapis epoch
#

hey, one question :) is it possible to play music donations after the alert? or have i play it manually in this case. thank you very much :)

strong kernel
#

If you're not already playing things, yeah, you can press play manually after the alert finishes.

lapis epoch
#

okay, on a another streaming provider pay plattform it was after the first alert + musik finished, the second alert + musik was triggered. I thought this is possible too, but yeah then i will play it back manually administraded by my mods :)

halcyon falcon
#

When working with the widgets, how do I get a label to repeat sooner?

#

As of now it scrolls across the whole bar then repeats

wide leaf
#

Hello! How do I get the OG cheers back? its honestly the main reason I switched to stream elements, but now its some weird circle thing but I want the OG twitch Cheer look.

narrow plaza
#

I am new to streaming and love your software over StreamLabs. However, I would like to play some music at low levels in the background while just chatting or during BRB, Intro, and Ending screens. For the Media Request App, I started linking Youtube music, but mainstream music is still a violation of the Twitch TOS, correct? Also, How can I get the app to play at a lower volume than say the game sounds and my mic? I have all volumes set where I want them, but the volume of the music is way too high and I have the slider for the app all the way down to one notch. How can I lower it even further?

strong kernel
#

@halcyon falcon Scrolling text will not restart until all text has left visibility. If you'd like different behavior, you'll need to custom code a widget.

#

@wide leaf All default alerts were changed recently, and unless you had added an alertbox and didn't edit it before the changes were made, there's no way to get what used to be there. You'll need to upload your own assets in this case.

wide leaf
#

so theirs no triangle or og stream elements cheers... dang.

strong kernel
#

@narrow plaza It's the streamer's responsibility to be mindful of copyrighted material and possible DMCA issues. About volume, you can also lower your desktop volume, but I'd assume that wouldn't be an ideal solution. Aside from that, you've got the volume slider in the media request system, and then when OBS Studio releases 24.0.0, it'll include individual volume adjustment for browser sources, so look forward to that.

narrow plaza

Thank you for the response, Nethyr!

Thank you

cobalt turtle
#

why are my overlays not popping up when i put them in OBS?

round brambleBOT
#

@cobalt turtle The default resolution for StreamElements overlays (theme and custom) is 1920x1080. Please add them in OBS at their full resolution and use CTRL+F to fit to screen if necessary. You can then downscale your stream in OBS settings > Video if you'd like https://i.imgur.com/6bWXxjR.png

keen bloom
#

hey i got a question

#

if someone hires a person to help manage their channel and social media then what is the position called and how much would said person be paid

cobalt turtle
#

i set it up just like that but it didnt work

zenith widget
#

@keen bloom payment is up to you or what they ask and its called manager

keen bloom
#

twitch manager?

zenith widget
#

@cobalt turtle well with just "not popping up" i cant really help much. I need more details. Are you using obs.live? Slobs? Bebo? Windows movie maker?

keen bloom
#

cause i keep googling it, but nothing of the sort shows up

cobalt turtle
#

slobs and i put in browser source sorry sir for not telling you i was on slobs my apologies

zenith widget
#

@keen bloom what exactly is this about? I have a feeling it barely has anything to do with what we offer for streamers.

keen bloom
#

?

#

i'm just trying to figure out the title of said position

#

not asking for info about said role itself

#

if i know the exact title then i can research it

#

it has to be something more specific than "manager"

zenith widget
#

Its called a manager

#

More specifically

#

Streamer manager

cobalt turtle
#

@zenith widget slobs and i put in browser source sorry sir for not telling you i was on slobs my apologies

zenith widget
#

@cobalt turtle no need tk tag me. I read what you said above. Dont use slobs - it tends to block our overlays and there is nothing we can do about it.

cobalt turtle
#

but my starting soon work? sorry sir for tagging you. You do not have your read receipts so i could not tell. My apologies for tagging you. @zenith widget

zenith widget
#

Its a random block - sometime it works sometimw it doesnt

#

Even if you make sure the overlay source is on top

#

Of all other sources

keen bloom
#

i personally suggest you stick with only stream labs or stream elements if u are trying to use both

#

i recommend stream elements though

#

if i understand what you're trying to do

cobalt turtle
#

That's scuffed Mr. husky man! Havr a blessid day sir! ❤ Happy Happy holidays sir!

Hey streamers and peoples, I just dove deep into the twitch stuff and found all the things I've been looking for, but I'm not sure on half the stuff I'm doing lol. So, what should I import on StreamElements? I imported nightbot and that's kinda it...(I stream on Xbox btw)

round brambleBOT

Any staff members around?

fierce light
#

any staff members around?

#

how do you switch to stream to twitch

#

its only youtube for me

forest hemlock
#

hello?

zenith widget
#

What is the issue?

#

@fierce light Streamelements on top of OBS.Live -> logout

forest hemlock
#

@zenith widget I'm new to StreamElements and my setup is almost complete, I was able to import most of my stuff from other platforms I'm just finnishing some overlays stuff and minor adjusts.

The only problem I have and I've been trying to figure it out for the past 2~3 hours is why StreamElements doesn't let me post link in my own twitch channel.

For example: I've a command "!terceira" (the place I(m) live(from)) with this link https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Terceira_Island even after I added it to the Spam Filters section's whitelist when I type "!terceira" in my own channel's chat to test it always shows "StreamElements: ***".

Please, for the love of God help me fix this.

zenith widget
#
  1. Our bot is not modded in your channel if links come out as ***
  2. There is a setting for twitch channels in the moderation section where hyperlinks are blocked. This is a default setting turned on "On" if the channel is new.
#

🙂

forest hemlock
#

I want it to come out as *** for viewers but not me typing it and not my commands with links

zenith widget
#

As a broadcaster and mod links will NOT be blocked

forest hemlock
#

hyperlinks must be grey or green?

#

thanks is fixed, I didnt knew how to ask google my problem so i could never find it lool

#

thanks man and sorry for english/confusion @zenith widget

noble cypress
#

Ok, so I did all the things that you linked me @viscid pebble BUT when I go to refresh my channel page it has all my panels and yet I still don't get the !social thing and I don't have my new background that I enabled?

zenith widget
#

so thats why its not working.

#

As for the background - upload it again

noble cypress
#

@zenith widget Where is that in SteamElements???

noble cypress
#

@zenith widget your a GOD TY!!!!

zenith widget
#

👍

noble cypress
#

I still can't do the !raffle thing

#

wait nvm i think

#

yeah some of my commands don't work still

#

I also still don't have my Overlays

zenith widget
#

You said you are streaming from a console right?

#

Also how are you using commands?

#

and which commands?

noble cypress
#

@zenith widget yeah I use an Xbox for streaming atm. And I have a computer like 3 inches away from my Xbox so I use that for things I can't do on my phone

#

I'm streaming rn if you wanna help me out?

zenith widget
#

If you are not using a capture card, then you can't have overlays over your console gameplay

noble cypress
#

I'm not sure what this pc has. I bought if from my friend and its a piece of garbo but it works

#

If I do? What would I have to do

noble cypress
#

Wait....is this for gameplay videos or for the Overlay?

lament blade
#

so the capture card sends your gameplay to the computer

#

and there you can add the gameplay into streamelements and add overlays to it

noble cypress
#

So in slow terms...this will show the Overlay that I enabled?

lament blade
#

where are you running your overlay now??

noble cypress
#

Its in a tab on streamelements

#

Sorry this is DUMMY confusing

lament blade
#

well, how are you transferring your gameplay to your streamelements

#

you understand what im saying there? It doesn't just automatically pick up what you play or stream directly from xbox

#

you need to capture the gameplay to your computer, that only works with a capture card between the console and the computer

#

just watch any of the videos or links that showed up in Keizars google search link

noble cypress
#

For me when I stream it automatically captures my game? I'm so confused

#

I have my Twitch connected to my Xbox so it automatically captures my games

lament blade
#

thats your game to twitch right?

#

yhea but that will not send your stream to streamelements or any other streaming application

#

streaming applications need to see your screen, simply said, only then they can capture your screen

noble cypress
#

So....I would need a whatever cable to hook up to my xbox so I can use the Overlays?

#

Cause I mean I can make it big on my pc but i can't send it to my twitch where it shows up

lament blade
#

you need a graphics card like keizar told yoju

noble cypress
#

balls

#

WELL I did all the cool stuff for no reason

elder sorrel
#

@noble cypress Can your PC handle streaming at all?

noble cypress
#

NOPE it can hardly handle WoW on the lowest graphics probably

elder sorrel
#

ah 9706_Monka_Cri

noble cypress
#

Yeah i know....Im poor af right now

#

can't afford much of anything

elder sorrel
#

As was gonna suggest you can download the Xbox companion App on your PC, connect your PC to it & use Display Capture on OBS.

#

So you can capture your Xbox Gameplay & use Overlays.

noble cypress
#

O3O

#

Will see what I can do

elder sorrel
#

With your PC not being able to handle even WOW on lowest. Not sure how quality will be.

noble cypress
#

It has 1080 source on Twitch soooooo idk if that's good or just a thing twitch automatically does

#

OH @elder sorrel what if I'm on a wired setup....

elder sorrel
#

Still depends on your hardware on your PC.

noble cypress
#

Will it work though if I can connect?

elder sorrel
#

It can connect but can't guarantee if your quality on the stream will look decent.

As I use on my PC the AMD 2700x, 32GB RAM, GTX1070 & able to stream 900p / 60FPS with no issue using the Xbox Companion App to connect to the Xbox One.

noble cypress
#

@elder sorrel so where would I go to get the overlays to appear?

rough jackal
#

Hey there! I'm currently using streamlabs. I need to know that is this really working? Any test by actual users?

lament blade
#

@rough jackal do you mean the fact that streamelements (aka obs.live) uses less CPU than slobs?

rough jackal
#

@lament blade I saw that on streamelements' website. If there any reasonable and better results I might think to move streamelements.

lament blade
#

The whole reason i moved over to obs.live was because my streamlabs used more than 50% cpu and obs.live only had like 10/20%

#

obs.live is only a addon to obs studio and slobs is a whole application

timid trout
#

Just wondering, im new to CSS and im wondering how i can change the icon size through CSS here is the code area i thought it would be in. The images on the right is the think im trying to change the size off

@lament blade well impressive. how did you measure that it's actually uses less?

lament blade
#

@rough jackal taskmanager CPU

Hey, any chance anyone can clear up whether or not I can make a simple text counter widget fade in and out at timed intervals?

Much appreciated in advance.

you should be able to script something like that using the Custom Widget 🙂

@cedar lynx Much appreciated for the quick response. I have zero scripting abilities. I was hoping there was a simpler way. Thanks anywho!

cedar lynx
#

yeah, unfortunately with unique functionality like that, custom is the way to go! you can always add it as an idea on the ideas board, since the Code Gurus (myself included) sometimes use the ideas board as a way to get inspiration for creating new widgets that the community can access from the #widget-share channel

I wondered if anyone could help me i've added a stinger to obs.live but once the transition has completed the scene behind isn't fully loaded any suggestions or resolving this the stinger is 2 seconds long if that makes a difference? thank you 🙂

zenith widget
#

increase the stinger time?

short hound
#

@zenith widget increase the time of the actual stinger or the transition point?

zenith widget
#

both?

#

to match the loading times?

#

The other thing you can do is, not have the overlay have the "shutdown when inactive' option

#

but that might cause double sounds for alerts

#

which it self has another fix

short hound
#

whats does the transition point mean?

zenith widget
#

I don't know transitions and/or stingers

so i can't really say

#

you are the one asking about the transition point, so i assumed you knew what it is xd

short hound
#

😄

#

what about loading times? monkaS

zenith widget
#

overlay loading times is depending on 3 things:

  1. what kind of overlay it is(what widgets it has)
  2. What kind of CPU you have
  3. what kind of internet speed you have
short hound
#

okay i will see what i can do thanks again @zenith widget

wanton mango
#

@short hound the transition point is the time in the transition where the scene switch happens, so ideally the part when the transition fully covers the screen, otherwise if it's too early or too late then the switch will be visible and ruins the effect

short hound
#

@wanton mango 🤔 Thank you!!

I am using an animated overlay for stream starting etc

#

And within obs the frame rate is fairly low

#

Does this framerate reflect in the stream itself?

#

I went into properties and changed the fps to 60 and it still looks like it's locked at 30

#

When I open the overlay in a browser it is very much smooth

Hi, i want to desactivate my account

@magic totem You can do this by clicking on your Username in the top right, then Security, then Close My Account

It's done, but it's don't work

It isn't done automatically, when you click on Close My Account a request is sent off for your account to be closed

Hey! For whatever reason, my sub goal counter is completely out of whack. It's not updating, it's not working, and there's nothing I can do to fix it. It's innaccurately stating that I have 660 subs, when I actually only have 606.

#

And yeah, I've refreshed the cache.

real escarp
keen compass
#

Yeah, that's the one I'm using.

#

I'm using it as a sub goal counter.

tight harness
#

It is worth noting that the Sub Goal widget is not intended to keep track of your total number of subscribers, for that we would recommend using the Total Subscribers widget

#

The Sub Goal widget simply counts up 1 when you gain 1, it does not count down when you lose any

keen compass
#

That's the one I'm using.,

#

Sorry.

#

"SUB GOAL: [count]/700"

#

That's what I have written in message.

#

I'm using Total Subscribers as a Sub Goal meter.

tight harness
#

Taking a look

keen compass
#

Thanks!

tight harness
#

There you go, updated it manually for you 👍

keen compass
#

It's still not counting.

tight harness
keen compass
#

I'm extremely confused.

It is {count} not [count]

Will it auto update now?

Yes

Hallo! Do you know if there is a way to customize the font color on the chat widget? I'd like to change it to white! Cheers

Heya 🙂 I am having a problem with the BOT MODULES page. I want the bot to put the message into chat, but when I set it to include {msg}, it resets when I next go to the page. It doesn't seem to save changes.

#

Specifically the TIPS message.

tight harness
#

@stark furnace You don't have an amount set in the tips section of chat alerts, it cannot save when there are values missing

lament blade
#

How do i make it so when someone donates a specific amount it plays a sound?

#

Hi! Just a quick question - i had someone tip the other night with a message and video but the message nor vid did not go through - instead it registered the tip notification through the overlay. Are there settings ive mixed up or need to turn of to make sure the tips are registering from the tip panel? I hope i explained this well,

Thanks!

tight harness
#

@lament blade Add variations in Variation Settings to your tips alerts in the alert box

stark furnace
#

I am talking about the text in chat. Not the alert box. Alert box works fine

#

And there IS an amount set

#

It keeps resetting to the original which is what you are seeing

tight harness
#

The screenshot I sent was from your account

stark furnace
#

Yes so wasw mine

#

The changes are not saving

tight harness
#

Fixed, the problem was that you didn't have a value in Cheers either

#

I put 1 into both value boxes and it saves fine

stark furnace
#

Well the cheers worked just fine

tight harness
#

When I looked you had a blank amount box for Tips and Cheers, putting 1 into both of those boxes fixed the issue as all value boxes must have a value in them 🙂

#

I added {msg} to the end of the tips message and it saved 👍

stark furnace
#

See my screen shot - I set the amount !

tight harness
#

Your screenshot shows tips, it doesn't show cheers which was also blank

#

Regardless, your issue is fixed after I added those amounts in

stark furnace
#

kk tyty 🙂

#

Yes - NOW I can change it and it stays changed.

#

Thanks again @tight harness

tight harness
#

No problem, you will also need to join the bot from the dashboard page when you intend on using it as currently it is parted

stark furnace
#

Yup I always part at the end of the stream

tight harness
#

Ah alright, just wanted to make sure

stark furnace
#

In the past I have been making a video with OBS and suddenly 1/2 way through someone follows and the bloody alert pops up when I'm not streaming 😄 😄

#

on obs.live if the animations look laggy will it look laggy on the stream too?

#

Also when i test the donation sounds. The sound gets activated twice and it sounds like an echo but its not? How do i stop that

#

oh nevermind its because i have obs on

  1. most likely, but could also be the obs window

@iron barn may I DM you

it was a bug

okay

iron barn

ty anyway

real escarp

@fallen lava you can create a command you can step yourself during stream

iron barn
#

just deleted and added again

real escarp

@forest hemlock can you screen shot the page your trying to change

forest hemlock
#

how can i change my profile's name? I tryed to change it in progile page section but doesnt do anything for example in loyalty leaderboard's page

real escarp
#

have you logged out of Stream Elements and logged back in with twitch

lament blade
#

if i add tip variations to the tips on the other scenes will it apply to the other scenes or will i have to apply the same variations continuously to other scenes?

fallen lava
#

@real escarp with that is there a way to have it a mod only command that way it doesnt get abused?

forest hemlock
#

i registered in streamelements in february but didnt had the time to work on, and yesterday i decided to do it so

#

technaclly i logged off and in but ill do it again

fallen lava
#

disregard @real escarp

real escarp
#

@lament blade you can do one of two things either make changes to alertbox in one overlay and copy the alertbox widget to the other overlays after changing or

#

you can have alert box as its own overlay in obs and add it to other scenes

forest hemlock
#

im doing it join with twitch

#

still doesnt change it

lament blade
#

@real escarp How do i have alert boxes as it's own overlay?

real escarp
#

and you changed it on the dashboard profile and save?

#

try shift + refresh after you save

forest hemlock
#

i change it in "Profile Page" ya

#

nothing yet

real escarp
#

@lament blade you create an overlay in overlay manager suggest 800 x 600 custom resolution and only add the alertbox widget

#

take that overlay url and add it as its own scene in obs

#

@forest hemlock I've seen this once where it takes the server a lil bit to update some profiles

forest hemlock
#

ok i'll wait

#

sorry...

lament blade
#

How do i test my stream on twitch like a private one?

lament blade
#

cheers

fallen lava
#

thanks @real escarp i guess i might need a better understanding of exactly how to set the commands

#

so i know i can add a !addwin command with ${count <addwin>} to add 1 win each time the command is used.... then add a !wins ${getcount <wins>} can then be used for everyone so it doesnt increment it by 1 each time the command is used. and then add !resetwins with ${count <resetwins> <0>} to reset the wins back to 0. Is that right because if so its not working for me.... im sure im messing something up here or missing the whole point

wanton mango
#

The counter name needs to be the same for each of the commands.
${count wins} - adds 1 and returns new count
${getcount wins} - returns win count
${count wins 0} - sets count to 0 and returns 0

fallen lava
#

i just got it!

#

thanks @wanton mango im shaking my head at myself on this one haha

you have a button or option that says use stream key instead,
however this is now redundant,
you can log in with your twitch account by clicking connect

Why if I change the position of one label in one scene it changes in another are they linked or smth?

Re: Loyalty Points / Giveaways. Are loyalty points given to viewers even if they're not following the channel? If so, is there a way to toggle this on or off? Next, for Giveaways, I'm assuming you can make this for followers only?

Custom bot name requirements

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

ok i know this method

i see this and i thought streamelements just change it

Nah. You'll need a 2nd Twitch Account with the Username you would want to be your custom bot name.

Giveaways cannot be set for followers only, only subs only.

potent saffron
#

Hi, I am using one of the free overlays for my twitch and only the follow alert work. I would like to know how to activate the other alerts pleasse

strong kernel
#

@potent saffron Well, you need to actually be a Twitch Affiliate to receive subs. When you receive a tip through your tipping page, those will play. Basically, the event needs to actually happen for it to play the alert.

potent saffron
#

The host doesn't work and i've been hosted many times

#

it works when i test tho

round brambleBOT
#

@potent saffron 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
  • 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.
potent saffron
#

ahhhh ok thanks

#

So its normal they don'T show up in the activity feed either?

strong kernel
#

Yes, if they don't meet those criteria.

potent saffron
#

Alright thanks you

Can one of you go check my account and see if everything in the tipping settings is as it should be? I have tried recalculating some tips, but it didnt work. Its my Top Tip donation.

Also note that Narooks also gets a msg that he needs to complete Tipping, but he says he already did.

slow quiver
#

I'm sorry I don't understand, I just started this week

dry hare
#

Basically your network connection despite saying you have 90+ up isn’t giving you 90+ up when you’re streaming and you’re losing packets somewhere between your computer and twitch.

#

Make sure steam and battle.net and origin and uplay and everything else aren’t downloading crap

slow quiver
#

it's only doing it for LoL, other games are fine

#

I use everything in minimum setting ingame

#

is it possible my ISP is limiting connection to LoL server specifically

Is there a way to submit links to media share directly through a site?

So I can't import my old currency from ankhbot and new currency from slobs and commands from both?

@drifting latch Only from the chat in the case of free requests. Paid requests are of course done through the tipping page.

@mild ridge What do you mean?

drifting latch
#

@strong kernel oh oof thats disappointing

mild ridge
#

Well I have commands and currency in stream lab sobs and stream labs chatbot but stream elements won't let me transfer any of it to it.

strong kernel
mild ridge
#

The import option for slobs say tips and alert boxes.

strong kernel
#

Ankhbot.

#

Ankhbot is what Streamlabs bought to build their bot.

mild ridge
#

That's not commands or currency while ankhbot says both but I keep getting try again.

strong kernel
#

Follow the instructions in the link above.

mild ridge
#

okay what location do I save to.

strong kernel
#

Doesn't matter. Wherever you can easily find it.

mild ridge
#

okay my cpu cant find the file I saved while stream elements opens up my databases

strong kernel
#

What are you even talking about? It's not "reading databases." It's a spreadsheet import.

#

Just save it where you can find it, and then you go find it when you're selecting a file for the import.

mild ridge
#

I must have saved it wrong I'll try again.

strong kernel
#

Make sure you are following the instructions precisely. There's no "this looks close enough." Either it's the exact button it describes or it's not.

#

Check your OBS settings anyway, make sure you didn't mute. Again: OBS.Live does not touch desktop audio. At all.

bright ibex
#

@mint jetty Media request is via youtube video. So people submit the videos and he plays them with the media request feature, showing on stream with the media request widget in their overlay.

mild ridge
#

I don't see the export currency csv option to save my points.

strong kernel
#

Then you're not doing it through the chatbot app, but through their extension, and they don't provide an export for that.

mild ridge
#

I used create split excel files and made a points and commands spreadsheets.

strong kernel
#

That button doesn't do points.

mild ridge
#

Correct the file is invalid.

dry hare
#

The export currency from slabs is terrible

#

You’re better off screen grabbing, running through OCR and exporting as CSV

mild ridge
#

Yeah it should exist in slobs so I was gonna use chat bot to get old currency then update it to match slobs. So screen grabbing should be used instead ah.

You don't upload them. You install them on your computer and type the name into the widget's text settings.

There's a way to enable Viewers Request (from Media Request), but through Twitch chat? I mean, without needing to open the dashboard.
The streamer in question plays VRChat and its hard for him to enable/disable it while in VR.

strong kernel
#

There is not. The streamer will need to give you manager access to their dashboard.

Not sure if this falls under this channel or obslive but I've added kappagen widgets and configured them. The widget is triggered on events (follow, sub, etc) but the chat emotes don't show up. Is there a setting I'm missing? Definitely have the chat option turned on and not to the combo setting

@brittle narwhal what exactly is the issue?

@opaque glacier try and use "!emotes update" and clear the cqche of the browser source that holds kappagen

Make sure the command is enabled

@ripe scarab what is this issue? Can you elaborate

When the GIF alert / store redemption ends, it goes away for a sec, comes back for a sec, then goes away for real.

#

@zenith widget I was trying to get a single lurk command with the response being redeem lurk

#

With audio and an image alert

zenith widget
#

@brittle narwhal Steps to make a command trigger sound on stream:

  1. Go to Stream Store page here: https://streamelements.com/dashboard/store/items
  2. Add an item that has these settings on it:
  • Stream Perk
  • Loyalty settings to your desire
  • (Next step) Add contents (image and/or sound you want to play)
  • "Redeeming this item shows an alert
  • Redemable via chat
  • Skip Requirements
  1. Get the item name/command from the 2nd creation page
  2. Go to commands page here: https://streamelements.com/dashboard/bot/commands/custom
  3. Add command with desired name and have response for command as: ${redeem item_name_here}
  4. Go to your overlays and edit the overlay you use.
  5. Click on "widgets" and add "Store redemptions" widget. Click save and you should be golden.
  6. Test your own command in chat and have OBS or editor open to hear sound
brittle narwhal
#

And I can only redeem from the store not in chat

zenith widget
#

@last summit Im not sure what the issue is then. What zoom? If the window capture is zooming in, press CTRL + F

last summit
#

all control + F does is same as properties and reforms it to fit to screen so not that. but still zoomed and i tried to see if controler helps but does not effect obs at all controller for remote play stays in ps4 for ps4 control only. IDK WTF what to do?????

zenith widget
#

What is your monitor's resolution?

last summit
#

its the same as obs settings

zenith widget
#

What is the resolution

last summit
#

1982x12 something all the same i'm thinking its sony crappy remote play just not working for us.

zenith widget
#

I've used the PS Remote Play

#

and I've never had an issue with it, besides the slight delay in controller

Either google search the issue or ask in the obs Discord

i haven't been getting host notifications for my stream

round brambleBOT

@neon gorge 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
  • 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.

^ as we can not provide support for some third party apps, I would suggest trying OBS.Live to see if you have the same issue.

hi guys, i have a question about overlays, i added a timer widget that counts down 10 mins, is there a way to reset that timer or do i really have to open OBS 10 mins before actually playing a game. I usually fiddle with OBS before i go live and the timer is already at 0 by then.

@astral wing check which server your streaming to on twitch might be having issues try a different server

#

@vast quartz if you right click the browser source and properties you should be able to refresh cache which should reload page and restart timer

@real escarp Will report back in a sec, thanks for the suggestion.

Trying to create different commands that would allow me to add a specific amount of currency to a different user each time for specific purposes - it would make it easier than having to remember how much currency I want to give for the different events. Anyone done this before?

solid wing

there are points commands?

tight harness
#

There's no bot variable currently for adding into custom commands that adds points to users

rotund jay

For instance, during the first hour of the stream, I give out x currency to anyone who comes in to chat, then if someone retweets a going live tweet then they get a different amount and folks who are around at the end of the stream will get another a certain amount - I'd like to just make a command for !1h username and it would give the proper amount or !eos username for that amount

obs.live beta?

#

the bot can join your twitch without using obs yes

somber anvil
#

Oh okay, i tried looking online for a tutorial but could only find pc things, i currently stream from the xbox

visual shell
#

Yeah, it's supposedly a beta expansion that streamlines Obs and adds new features like seeing your chat from obs itself and custom names for your bots

jade remnant
#

you still need to join it manually from the se dashboard

visual shell
#

I've also heard it can reduce cpu usage

somber anvil
#

So id need to be on the se dashboard while i stream?

jade remnant
#

no, you need to join the bot from there

somber anvil
#

Oh okay so id have to add when i start up the stream right

visual shell
#

from your se dashboard, you should be able to add the bot to your stream and it'll stay there until you manually remove it

#

under bot settings, I believe
