It sounds like you "used existing" for your browser sources instead of making a new one for each scene.

I'll double check if I did, but I don't believe so

Hey guys, did the requirements change for the chatbot name to use my own? It stopped working yesterday and I havent made changes

supple hearth
#

Hmm.. It seems to be working now. I don't remember doing that but it's also possible I did haha

#

Thank you very much for the help!

sturdy bough
#

Oh wait, its back now LUL

#

Disregard

burnt juniper
#

the streamelements bot betting (or roulette) isn't true 50/50 each bet is it. It likes going on streaks lol

#

or it may be and there's just some insane luck involved today but everything else (mass coin flip sights, etc.) seem to consistently have less streaks than that bot today

#

feel free to @ me

zenith widget
#

@burnt juniper can I poke you with a needle? vvDevil

#

Have you checked the winning slider for roulette?

hoary karma
#

Can I get banned for streaming on the wrong category?

#

Was streaming on the wrong category

zenith widget
#

Thats a question for Twitch it self, not us, but a general thing is, that most of the time, if the twitch admins or global moderators see you in the wrong category, they move you, if they feel like it.

#

I don't think anyone has been banned for forgetting to change their game category

untold adder
#

About 5 months ago my twitch channel got suspended permanently but the streamelements account for that channel is still up and i would like it to be deleted but since i can't access the account i can't delete it myself.

zenith widget
#

The deletion process requires a JWT token, which is unique for every account. Without being able to login and obtain said token, the deletion process can't be done. Although, I will check with the devs just in case, but I believe its not possible.

untold adder
#

but can't you like go into my account and check the key or something?

#

the name is AronXSig

zenith widget
#

@untold adder Spoke with our devs - the account is deleted

untold adder
#

Thanks

zenith widget
#

Asking devs

lament blade
#

how do i get twitch settings to have 540p 720p and 1080 p?

zenith widget
#

Thats up to Twitch and if they have free encoding spots for the quality settings.

#

Usually those are reserved for Twitch Partners, but affiliates can get them, if there is a free spot on the server you are streaming and if you meat the minimum requirement of it

#

which i believe was 10 or 15 current viewers

lament blade
#

so i can onl;y stream in 1080p on twitch?

zenith widget
#

You should NOT be streaming on 1080p

#

not everyone can watch you at 1080p

lament blade
#

thats my only option and its the source

#

can i change that on obs?

zenith widget
lament blade
#

what should i go

zenith widget
#

Click on Settings on OBS

#

go to Video and change the OUTPUT option(as shown above in the screenshot) to 1280x720

#

and you should be fine

lament blade
#

that good for phone users ?

zenith widget
#

yes

zenith widget
#

@woven sigil - watchtime when imported to us, needs to be converted to minutes from hours.

#

and then the file can be used to import points and watchtime

lament blade
#

hey guys any reason why spam bot ban sound requests?

zenith widget
#

you need to whitelist https://youtube.com in the link protection

lament blade
#

well, if i whitelist youtube, then everybody can link youtube videos

zenith widget
#

In that case, then instruct people to use the song name instead of the link.

woven sigil
#

Oh, thank you KeiZar. Do you have a guide or a quick fix for that? πŸ™‚

zenith widget
#

!sr daft punk around the world as an example.

#

@woven sigil reset the loyalty points leaderbaords(current and all time), go into Google Sheets, import the file there, convert the entire watch time row from hours to minutes(there is a formula)

#

export the file as .csv again from google sheets and then import

lament blade
#

right, thanks for advices. i think i will just whitelist youtube. could be nice also if bot recognize !sr and don't ban for links there

woven sigil
#

Thank you so much, will try that πŸ™‚

ancient saffron
#

Heya! I have a question - is there a way I can have the streamelements bot subbed to my channel to use emotes for commands? or do i have to manually gift a sub to the bot each month

zenith widget
#

@ancient saffron You will have to gift it a sub each month, unless you are a partner, then you can perma sub it

#

Anyone able to help with Media Request (OBS.Live w/ Stream Elements) -- I managed to skip tutorial, and want to get vid and aud playing on my stream, but now i cannot access it from my sources / scenes

#

Good morning! I'm just live streaming right now and my alerts are working....is the system down???? Thanks for help!

zenith widget
#

Checking

quiet temple
#

Need an Alert to Alert you when the Alerts aren't Alerting Kappa

sleek fox
#

πŸ€” πŸ€” haha

#

Oh dear

zenith widget
#

Can you please, go to the dashboard and logout and login again?

#

Im asking the devs regardless, as alerts do seem to work, but for some reason we are not seeing you as Live currently

sleek fox
#

@zenith widget can I do that if I'm streaming live???

zenith widget
#

yes

sleek fox
#

U mean the stream elements dashboard

zenith widget
#

yes

#

from here

sleek fox
#

Ok just done it

#

Someone just hosted but it didnt show the alert...

#

Hmmmm

zenith widget
#

I'm trying to speak with the devs, as this is a really strange case atm

sleek fox
#

Ok thank you:)

wary halo
#

with how many people was the host?

#

because there is always this:

#

!hosts

round brambleBOT
#

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.
zenith widget
#

@wary halo Thats not the issue at the moment.

wary halo
#

okay πŸ˜‰

sleek fox
#

@zenith widget any update??

zenith widget
#

Dev is looking into it.

sleek fox
#

Ok thank you:)

#

i have a question when using SE ground control media request.. when casting to the stream my video was good and it fit my output on my screen but now it wont fit my output nor is it displayed right, its a lil zoomed in and it judt doesnt fit output anymore cant find what is casuing it

cerulean escarp
#

canvas problems perhaps? try selecting the source in OBS and press ctrl-r and ctrl-f

little oak
#

and i need to learn how to spell LUL

#

its perfect on canvas on the browser overlay on SE site

twin sentinel
#

Can you share a screenshot of your OBS window with the media request on the canvas?

little oak
#

it use too fit now its like this

#

its like its a diff output now

#

and its a lil zoomed in too

#

never was like that before till i lost bot settings

twin sentinel
#

Disable the studio mode by selecting studio mode on the controls in OBS.
Then select your preview with a right click and make it preview scaling > scale to window

little oak
#

did all that

twin sentinel
#

Is the video in full screen on the overlay editor and is the overlay saved?

little oak
#

it looks good on overlay on the site

#

it fits output there

cerulean escarp
#

do you by any chance use two monitors with different resolutions?

jade remnant
#

are you zoomed out on the overlay editor so you can see the whole page

wise grail
#

I am wondeirng with the subscriber goal, is there way to start it from a set date, or does the set date start from when you create the widget? Thank you

twin sentinel
cerulean escarp
#

#WhatHeSaid

wise grail
#

@twin sentinel Does resetting this goal by any chance, only affect the widget, or does it affect everything else on streamelements?

little oak
#

yeah i use 2 diff size screens but that never effected it before

twin sentinel
#

It affects your goal status. You can also enter a number there and save it, to set it to a specific value.

#

@little oak What is your base canvas resolution in OBS and what is your scaled canvas resolution?

little oak
#

in obs its set to 1600x900

wise grail
#

@twin sentinel Oh, so it affects goal status only and not anything else on my stream elements?

wary halo
#

nope

little oak
#

everything was fine before it fit my 1600x900 but now it dont and its kind cut off

#

maybe i messed something up ill delete overlay and create a new one

zenith widget
#

Don't delete

little oak
#

ok

zenith widget
#

the overlay is set to 1440x900 resolution

#

Thats why its not fitting

little oak
#

yeah i was changing bacc and fourth

#

trying to get it to fit

zenith widget
#

change the resolution of the overlay back to 1600x900 then

#

and its should fit preferctly

#

also i think you CTRL+F'ed the wrong browser source in OBS

little oak
#

i have changed both overlays to 1600x900

#

ill try that

zenith widget
little oak
#

yeah i was messing around changinf it baacc and fourth

wise grail
#

I don't mean to repeat myself, I am having a bit of difficulty undertstanding, so resetting only affects the goals is that correct?

round brambleBOT
#

@wise grail To reset goals:

  • from the overlay editor -> data on top -> goal tab -> reset progress of desired goal
  • from the dashboard -> activity feed on the left -> widget data on the right -> goals tab -> reset progress of desired goal
    Note: Goal widgets(progress) only counts up and doesn't go down automatically, if you loose followers/subs
zenith widget
#

So in short - resetting in the goals tab in the session page

#

will affect that type of goal widget

little oak
#

ah i think i see

zenith widget
#

there is no starting date for the goal widget.

#

End date doesn't have a particular function

wise grail
#

Thanks Keizar, I wasn't sure if it would affect any other of my data

#

That was where my concerned laid πŸ™‚

little oak
#

its fixed it was my music overlay set to 720\

#

so it was feeding 1280x720

#

didnt even think of the other one i had

#

it's perfect on obs noww, thanks for the replies igaHype

zenith widget
#

πŸ‘

wise grail
#

Does streamelements have a way to actually play audio from a playlist onto OBS for example? I am wondering how in order to link it to a particular scene, thank you πŸ™‚

zenith widget
#

Media Request dock

little oak
#

when you showed that screen shot it made me realize the other one

zenith widget
#

or have media request open from the dashboard

#

OBS picks up any sounds and plays them to stream

little oak
#

yeah it will picc it up even had ppl tell me other stuff is playing LUL

#

i got a question @zenith widget

zenith widget
#

i got an answer Thinkies

little oak
#

ok i got a friend who uses SEOBS

zenith widget
#

OBS.Live*

little oak
#

well she cant see the obs logo when applying the source code so then she had to turn off the hardware acc after turning it off she can see logo but wont let her connect but when she turns hardware bacc on the logo disappears then she can stream again but no source shows?

#

on to off

zenith widget
#

What source code?

little oak
#

if on she cant do this when off she cant do that

#

her overlay browser

zenith widget
#

and what logo?

little oak
#

the bluw obs logo that pops up adding a source

#

blue*

zenith widget
#

this?

little oak
#

this one

#

nvm you got it LUL

zenith widget
#

thats a default page from OBS

little oak
#

yes but she cant see it

zenith widget
#

i don't see how this is needed to stream

little oak
#

till she turns on hardwareacc

#

no clue

#

but when she can see it she cant stream

#

but

#

when yurning the setting off she can stream but no sorces or overlay can be seen

zenith widget
#

Tell her to come here

#

being the middleman makes this confusing

little oak
#

true

wise grail
#

I had a folder on my PC to play music from, not music that my viewers pick

#

So, yeah, wasn't sure if StreamElements, could do that

zenith widget
#

I sometimes play music from Spotify - as long as OBS is set to pick up default sound device

wary halo
#

^^

zenith widget
#

then its going to pick up spotify and any local file being played

#

OBS.Live has nothing to do with the audio settings in OBS

wise grail
#

I was just hoping StreamElements could have made my music into a link so it could have synced with my scenes in OBS if that makes sense

#

I still haven't found a work around for that yet πŸ™‚

zenith widget
#

I'm not sure to what link you are referring to.

#

Showing the name of the locally played file?

wise grail
#

I was hoping StreamElements could have allowed me to pick a folder that my music is in and then turn that into a link

#

Or just play music from my folder

#

Desktop audio is just getting full very quickly

zenith widget
#

@sleek fox It should be fixed - I refollowed you and I showed up in our activity feed, so an alert should have played. Unfortunately, any missed follows, won't show, unless they unfollow and follow again.

#

@wise grail OBS is not a music player.

#

and we don't have a way to play local files

little oak
#

i went to find her Keizar she still streaming

#

about half hour more she will be done

wise grail
#

Thanks Keizar, I will keep doing my research

little oak
#

@zenith widget ill have her @ you her name is xKtie

zenith widget
#

I might not be around in half an hour

little oak
#

yeah i see your schedule thats why i hopped in and asked about mine real quicc LUL

#

best time to catch you

#

all is good we will catch ya

steady saddle
#

yeap the new update dont show any of my alarts

wary halo
#

did you log out and back in again?

steady saddle
#

yeah

#

i member talking to you yesterday

wary halo
#

yeah your name looked familiar πŸ˜›

steady saddle
#

it worked yesterday but i turned my pc on for the day and back to not showing up

wary halo
#

what did we try yesterday? only the new login?

steady saddle
#

yes logged in then out

wary halo
#

do you still have your sources in obs?

#

for the alert overlay?

steady saddle
#

yes

wary halo
#

do they work when you test them in the overlay editor on the website?

steady saddle
#

yes

#

they just dont show on obs

wary halo
#

πŸ€”

steady saddle
cerulean escarp
#

could you provide us with a screenshot of your OBS?

round brambleBOT
#

@steady saddle Right click on the BrowserSource > Properties > Scroll down a bit > Refresh Cache of current page

wary halo
#

maybe that will help?

steady saddle
cerulean escarp
#

what happens on OBS when you select "alerts" source?

steady saddle
#

nope didnt work

#

@cerulean escarp nothing

cerulean escarp
#

no red squares in your preview window?

#

or blue.. I see you have locked it.

steady saddle
#

yeah you can see those

cerulean escarp
#

yes. but when you select a source you should see the canvas for that source in your preview window

steady saddle
#

no i dont

cerulean escarp
#

try selecting the alerts source and unlocking it. press ctrl-r and then ctrl-f

#

the two other sources above the alerts source. are those fullscreen and cover everyting? try moving your alrets source up

steady saddle
#

did that nothing

#

it highlighted in red but nothing

cerulean escarp
#

ok. so the source should actually be visible and avaliable to OBS.
could you check the properties for the source? is the URL correct?

steady saddle
#

yes i did all that

cerulean escarp
#

what happens if you open that URL in a regular web browser and try to test it via the test function on streamelements.com

steady saddle
#

it works on there no problem

#

the website is 100% working

cerulean escarp
#

hmm.. ok.. I need an adult person.. @zenith widget U still on mate?

twin sentinel
#

Try disabling browser hardware acceleration in the advanced settings in OBS.

steady saddle
#

dont see that in advanced

little oak
#

scroll all the way down

wise grail
#

Well, I don't know what happened, I left OBS to sit on my PC for about 10 minutes and pouffe my webcam and elgato are sitting happily togehter without much difficulty :/

steady saddle
#

ok did that nothing

twin sentinel
#

Restart OBS after that, too.

wary halo
#

@wise grail why did you sit on your pc? did it brake?

wise grail
#

LOL, LOL, they are finally getting along, albeit I posted this in streamelements rahter than OBS discord sorry

#

Elgato and Logitech had a huge marital argument, both locked OBS to pieces, webcam was flickering hard core in all different colours and well, Elgato wouldn't have a piece of it, simply crashed lol

#

Best way to describe the issue πŸ˜‚

steady saddle
#

@twin sentinel that worked thank you so much

#

@wary halo @twin sentinel @cerulean escarp thank you all for the help

cerulean escarp
#

your welcome

wary halo
#

@wise grail i have to make sure that the logitech software is turned of on my setup or else the cam won't show in OBS

wise grail
#

Oooo, good tip, never knew that Ruben, well! I came to the right place

#

Question, how do I turn cam off, just pull it out from USB?

wary halo
#

if i shutdown obs, the cam turns off

#

in my setup at least

cerulean escarp
#

the camera is only active with a software pulling info from it

wise grail
#

I noticed that though, when you start OBS, the cams automatically connect, or that doesn't matter?

wary halo
#

if you want to turn it off during the stream then you can just simply click the camera source to not be visible πŸ˜‰

cerulean escarp
#

but if you want to go all conspiracy/FBI/CIA/hacker you can pull the plug

wise grail
#

LOL Deni, nicely said πŸ˜„

wary halo
#

hahaha true

wise grail
#

I'm streaming sword and shield on Friday, so heck a nervous

#

I'm doing cam for the 1st time after 2 years

#

I'm totally panicking because Logitech and Elgato weren't agreeing with each other almost an hour ago, so feeling the pressure

wary halo
#

it will be fine πŸ˜‰

#

we are always here to help

wise grail
#

Thanks for listening to me, despite being in the wrong server, this server is much more helpful then OBS, although I probably shouldn't say such

#

Good teamwork StreamElements team πŸ™‚ Thank you!!

wary halo
#

there are probably more people here so the chance of getting help quick is higher

#

and we use the same stuff

hidden salmon

Can anyone point me to the thread on how to get the OBS Media request panel to load? I've tried logging out of my twitch in PBS, refreshing the panel....help! Lol

Hey, I'm trying to get a widget for spotify current playing but no luck. I remember there was an option in streamelements too, but its not there anymore

round brambleBOT
#

@earnest lynx Spotify has kindly asked us to disable our integration with them, so we complied. This means that the Spotify integration has been removed and the "Now Playing" widget no longer has it as an option.

Oh, so there's no alternative for this ?

no.

thx

dusty pike
#

@round bramble That information is not helpful :/

twin sentinel
#

Make sure the "Show Emulated events on stream" option is on to see the alert in OBS/Xsplit

dusty pike
#

Thing is it doesn't even emulate on the browser just in editor no where else, and the layer isn't hidden. i have even made a new test overlay with the default alerts and still doesn't show.

is there any of you who knows how to fix the "failed to get token from remote: connection timed out after 5000 miliseconds"?

Best to ask OBS on this issue.

But there seems to be no ETA at this time.

jolly hamlet

few minutes they said...

#

11 hours ago

Nothing we can do about it at this time. Please be patient and wait for a status upadate from OBS.

How do i edit my follower goal to decrease it by 1?

@lament blade To reset goals:

  • from the overlay editor -> data on top -> goal tab -> reset progress of desired goal
  • from the dashboard -> activity feed on the left -> widget data on the right -> goals tab -> reset progress of desired goal
    Note: Goal widgets(progress) only counts up and doesn't go down automatically, if you loose followers/subs

#

i also clicked apply then tried to start stream and witn wont start my stream

oblique steeple
#

Show me a screenshot of your settings please (With the stream key hidden)

twin sentinel
#

@lament blade Unfortunately, due to lack of use, development time to update Ground Control for Mac was diverted to other projects. At this point, as it's not commonly used, we do not have an ETA for when it will return.

left nova
#

as you can see i have tried it this way and it wont start my broadcast

oblique steeple
#

So you click on "OK" and then "Start Streaming". What happens after? Do you get an error?

left nova
#

nothing the start streaming button goes gray and nothing else happens

Okay then go to Help > Log Files > Upload current log and post the link in here

Hello everyone, i have an interesting problem to solve. I followed the guide to make my streamelements chatbot have a custom name. Its already a mod, its there in my channel, i switched the donation thing to go through streamelements and my paypal, its checked and working fine. Everything is set up. I open ground control, go to settings, rename my bot. i generate that oauth token or whatever that is. I hit test bot button - And it does respond in my channel - but with MY name, and not with the given bot name. Anyone have any ideas? I tried everything.

left nova
#

ok that is working now thank you very much for your help

oblique steeple

twin sentinel
#

@dense cargo Have you generated the authentication token with your newly created bot account and enterd this in your GroundControl bot field?

dense cargo
#

i assume i did, but let me re-do it.

#

yes, just generated a new one, copied, hit test button, still talks in my name.

real escarp
#

standby

#
2) type command !sedebug see if custom bot is = true
3) SE dashboard PART and in chat !bot remove (wait till not listed in viewers)
4) SE dashboard JOIN bot
5) obs live switch to no custom bot name
6) obs live turn back on custom bot name send test```
#

i have one more walk through is that doesnt work

dense cargo
#

i'm on it thank you.

#

how long does it take usually for the bot to part my channel?

real escarp
#

we are waiting for the viewer list to drop the name off

Can you try to delete and readd the source with the overlay to your OBS please?

it's not a streamelements issue

Wherever i go it laggs

so you want to watch a stream on twitch from someone else right?

i have a store item that is the only item in my store that send someone to log into their stream elements and then buy it. Why is that? every other one just redeemed in the panel store

twin sentinel
#

As items may cost points or are only made for a specific user level, we need the user to log in to their StreamElements account, to check these abilities.

sinful nexus
#

why is this item different then others?

twin sentinel
#

You always have to log in to redeem an item.

real escarp
#

or grant the panel access so it can see your points

sinful nexus
#

this is the only item in my store that requires this. only reason im confused

real escarp
#

which item

#

all 6 just told me to login

sinful nexus
#

its just a normal stream perk

#

from my twitch panels

#

none has anyone log in but that one

real escarp
#

which perk

sinful nexus
#

last night while streaming people using my store in my panels could redeem any of them but that one

#

the holiday one

real escarp
#

checks points on all the alerts must have points to redeem

sinful nexus
#

just made it free if you want to try again

real escarp
sinful nexus
#

so they have to log in stream elements to input a address?

real escarp
#

if they !redeem in chat

#

they dont have to login anywhere

#

if they redeem in panel or site they must login for us to check for points and username

#

free or not free, address or no address

sinful nexus
#

okay so to make things easy they should !holiday to bypass the login

real escarp
#

are you trying to mail cards

sinful nexus
#

yes

#

for that single item yes

real escarp
#

they must log in... everything redeemed is tracked with a username in store redemptions

sinful nexus
#

okay thank you! so for that item ill need them to login. Just the others they wont need too. Every other one works perfectly without a login if they just click redeem in panel store

real escarp
#

correct

sinful nexus
#

thanks a ton for clearing that up!

hey everyone! I am having some issues where my widgets for new followers/subs doesn't disappear after I tell it to, or do any of the animations. As well as that, I don't understand how to reset a timer I have for counting down to my stream starting. It just starts at whatever time it wants even when I have set it on a specific time

wary halo
#

do your widgets work on your dashboard when you test them?

real escarp
#

countdown timer starts as soon as the scene is loaded | if you have "disable when not visible" it will restart every time that scene becomes active

acoustic turtle
#

@wary halo they don't. That's brilliant @real escarp

real escarp
#

you will need to add the alert box widget to your overlay

#

what is your twitch username just the name

acoustic turtle
#

Zippignome

#

I'll go make sure to add the aler box!

Yeah, realized I didn't. That would have been super helpful. This is my first time using this as I'm sure with this inquiry it was obvious

acoustic turtle
#

is it possible to list every single follower from a session in individual slots?

#

Let me explain better than that. I want to be able to show every single follower who was followed me in one stream, but don't want a giant list of names in order, but instead want to be able to put each individual who followed me into their own area on an overlay

real escarp
#

not possible with widgets provided

wanton mango
#

@acoustic turtle it's technically possible with some local custom CSS in OBS, but it's probably more hassle than it's worth, and it would always show the last X followers, not for each stream

acoustic turtle
#

@wanton mango as custom CSS it would take a good while to make it possible. There are ways of getting around showing the last followers. I have multiple transition scenes that are nearly identical and all worded specific to their title. One scene identical layout, has far less alert widgets for that exact reason. lets say one stream you get 1 follower, the next you get 10. I only go in even numbers as it would be a lot of work to keep up with 1,2,3 etc. I have a layout for 5,10,20,30,40 and 50. I placed them in a way that makes it really easy to slide between. I also keep my statistics page open and before I end a stream, I refresh it and see how many new followers I gain and choose from the appropriate closest number

#

for instance if I have 35 new followers, I just use the 30 scene and then shout out the individuals who were not on it

#

this is spit balling ^ I personally love the feedback I've found here

wanton mango
#

What I did was make an overlay with just multiple recent follower widgets, disabled the scrolling and then in OBS, applied custom css to target individual widgets and remove every name except the last follower, or the second to last follower, etc, etc. So essentially each widget turned into a 'last follower' slot

acoustic turtle
#

@wanton mango that's brilliant

wanton mango
#

Here's the CSS for that:

#widget-1 se-widget-follower-recent span:not(:nth-child(1)) {
  display: none;
}
#

It's probably important to make a fresh overlay with only recent follower widgets, as other widgets may mess up the numbering

#

Then just duplicate that snippet as many times as you have widgets, incrementing the number at the start (in the blue) and at the end (in the red/orange)

acoustic turtle
#

Please Help! Ive had this issue for a while and none of the "fixes" on the internet work. I get alerts for follows and subs ~ but my raid and host alerts don't work. And I set up a point store. But my followers cant redeem it. Even if they go to the store page

distant swan
#

I do not see an !join command in the commands list! @twin sentinel

twin sentinel
#

It is in the default commands, most likely set to user level moderator.

round brambleBOT
#

@sullen cobalt 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.
twin sentinel
#

@sullen cobalt Do they get an error message when they try to redeem it?

distant swan
#

Thanks @twin sentinel

#

All set

sullen cobalt
#

Thanks. That makes sense. But it doesnt work even if there are viewers. And no error message. It "goes through" but it doesn't show up anywhere on my end. Even if I look at reception history. Its worked 1 time and never since then.

twin sentinel
#

Have you added the store redemptions widget to your active overlay?
Was the host listed in your activity feed? Be aware that we do not show hosts from an offline channel.

Hi guys, I have a base animation. See here ( https://gyazo.com/8f7de1714427b8b1f3137c6e73380b78 ).

Is it possible (through StreamElements), to have the base animation consistently play, and when a certain action (Follower, Subscription, Cheer, Donation) happens, the animation switches to ANOTHER animation that I have?

For example: The base/idle animation is looping. Someone follows the stream, so the Follow Animation plays, then goes back to the base/idle animation afterwards

@granite hinge Can you record or show how it moves? You can use Studio mode to show both scenes, but I suspect that most likely the overlay in the other scene is moved a bit.

Is StreamElements compatible with broadcasting software other than OBS?

zenith widget
#

Any, to a degree - recently found out vMix exists and that it needs a browser source update to V67 to work with our overlays.

wise grail
#

I'm thinking software like Xsplit etc, OBS has been giving me headaches, so I am considering on exploring software other than OBS

zenith widget
#

Yes

wise grail
#

Thank you.

zenith widget
#

But note that XSplit is paid, so any premium feature you have issues with, we might not be able to help much

#

But I do know that some browser source version in XSplit has issues with our overlays, but don't remember which version it was

wise grail
#

Yeah, I just wish OBS wasn't ful of holes

#

If OBS was willing to explore a paid option to make their software more stable and compatiable then I would pay

zenith widget
#

OBS stands for Open Broadcast Software - they are open source and basically its a 1 man show with some other developers helping on the side.

wary halo
#

Maybe it's just something you learn over time, to fill those holes ;)

wise grail
#

Not with Elgato and Logitech crashes

zenith widget
#

OBS has came a long way tbh

wise grail
#

I had to hire a home computer tech today to resolve the issue

wary halo
#

What was the issue?

#

With the cam again?

wise grail
#

Logitech and Elgato were having marital issues, so we had to find a loophole, so we systemically rotate the 2 Elgato scenes and when one crashes we input in the other scene

wary halo
#

Have you tried the Elgato Discord asking for help with their product?

wise grail
#

Its resolved now with thanks to my computer tech

#

It was just getting too much with it being so close to my 24 hour stream tomorrow

wary halo
#

For future problems ;)

wise grail
#

We also didn't know if the issue was with Logitech or with Elgato

#

So there was no way to know until the tech looked at it

#

My camera has now been set at frames and resolution that it is happy with πŸ™‚

#

Good to hear it works now!

Thank you πŸ™‚

#

Not sure if this is the right place....
but I may be missing something or am just dumb... but can anyone tell me how to make the gift-sub alert only read the number of gifted subs rather than each one individually (named) when it's like a 'gift bomb'?
So like instead of it naming each person that was gifted with an individual alert, it's showing only the number of gifts and names the gifter.

zenith widget
#

Are you using the solo gift variation or the community gift variation for the alert?

faint oasis
#

I've been using the solo one... I didn't realize there was a community varient

Community Gift variation has been a thing since the option came out more or less πŸ™‚

Hey guys, quick question, how can I merge two channels? I had a twitch channel, set up the overlays and everything, and then I made a YT channel. When I signed onto OBSlive, I entered connect YT channel, which I did, but now OBSlive is treating them as two separate accounts. When I try to connect one to the other, it says that channel is already claimed...

@orchid prairie Restart Ground Control

#

@terse venture There is no solution, but its a good idea to have MR wait for the alert.

orchid prairie
#

@zenith widget when someone donates, the list doesn't refresh instantly, I need to open the overlay at the website and save again

zenith widget
#

You may only need to refresh the browser source only

#

to let the overlay reload the widget.

Hi, I got an issue with the bot system
I wanted to remove the account of my bot and just use my normal account as bot but it doesn't let me change it and now when i type in a command it doesn't even responds even with streamelements being a moderator

twin sentinel
#

Are you using GroundControl or OBS.Live for the bot rename?

raw mason
#

OBS.Live

#

because i didnt see the option in ground control

twin sentinel
#

For OBS.Live:

1) Right click on your OBS desktop shortcut -> properties - in the "Target" field add this -> --remote-debugging-port=40404
2) Open OBS(or restart if it was open)
3) Open your browser and type in "localhost:40404"
4) Click on "StreamElements - Activity feed"
5) navigate to the Console tab
6) type in the console this: store.customBot.removeCustomBotIntegration() and hit enter
7) Try setting the custom bot name

Make sure to add the bit at the end of 1 at the end of the existing target instead of replacing what's already there

If you want to use GroundControl, let me know, so I can inform a staff to take a look at this issue.

raw mason
#

i cant find the target that yourΓ© speaking of

twin sentinel
#

When you right click the shortcut on your desktop > properties. Then you get something like this:

raw mason
#

yes

twin sentinel
#

then add it at the end of the target field.

raw mason
#

oh behind it

#

and point 4 is back in obs?

twin sentinel
#

it is on your browser.

fallen finch
#

Hello. Since last update my layout from editor is broken each time when I switch scene. OBS standard.

twin sentinel
#

Can you share a screenshot of your OBS window please?

fallen finch
#

I've tried to reproduce problem but I can't. Refreshing source solve problem once (until scene is changed)

#

and it looks like that

#

(i wanted to describe my problem first before posting img πŸ˜› )

raw mason
#

ah it worked Benno have a nice day and thanks for helping

twin sentinel
#

@fallen finch Can you dm me the overlay url please?

fallen finch
#

yup, sec

twin sentinel
#

Try to clear the cache of the browser source properties please.

#

!cache

round brambleBOT
#

Right click on the BrowserSource > Properties > Scroll down a bit > Refresh Cache of current page

fallen finch
#

this is the only way to fix that layout once

twin sentinel
#

It only resolves it, till you switch to another scene and back?

fallen finch
#

i've mentioned it before

#

yup

twin sentinel
#

Please try to delete the browser source in OBS and readd it please.

#

Also what is your accountId and what is the overlay name in your overlay overview?

#

postΓ³j (bigger cam / brb)

#

the problem started appearing since yesterday (after update described on #270206314561404928 channel)

twin sentinel
#

Has the complete delete and readd of the browser source fixed the issue?

fallen finch
#

nope, still broken

round brambleBOT
#

@fallen finch If you are not seeing the OBS Twitch integrations and have OBS.Live installed, please follow these steps:

  1. Make sure you are on the latest and greatest version of OBS.Live
  2. exit OBS (make sure OBS is not running)
  3. delete %appdata%\obs-studio\plugin_config\obs-browser\obs_profile_cookies
  4. start OBS.Live
  5. Settings -> Stream -> disconnect -> connect
twin sentinel
#

Try that please ‴️

granite hinge
#

The fix was to literally just save again in SE but it kept breaking again after changing scenes

#

The chat is way off as you can see

#

I imagine alerts would have been too if one triggered

zenith widget
#

@granite hinge This is your overlay right?

#

@fallen finch Do you have "shutdown when not visible" on the browser source?

#

@granite hinge same question to you tbh

granite hinge
#

yes

#

to both

zenith widget
#

can you remove the option from the browser source

#

switch scenes and see if that helps?

leaden wraith
#

My overlays broke today, not sure why. I tried everything.. finally deleting browser source and reading it worked. Interesting thing is I have 2 overlays. I only deleted one browser source and readded. Then the other starting working to? Obs live.

granite hinge
#

i can try however in the past when leaving that on I hear multiple alerts and the usage on CPU goes way up

zenith widget
#
  1. for the sake of testing
  2. you can always have the alert widget on its standalone overlay.
#

and just copy + paste the browser source as reference in all scenes

#

eliminates the multiple sounds

granite hinge
#

okay at work now but will try later tonight. thanks for the suggestion

twin sentinel
#

@leaden wraith Can you elaborate on how they are broke? Like what was the issue before you readded the source?

leaden wraith
#

The noise would trigger but no image on stream

#

It was very odd. It was on top layer

#

Not hidden etc

twin sentinel
#

Sorry what noise, the alert noise?
After readding everything is fine now for both overlays?

leaden wraith
#

Yah. Everything is okay now. I just wanted to feed back

#

The alert noise played. But nothing displayed

twin sentinel
#

If that happens again, please let us know and we'll investigate further.

leaden wraith
#

Mmmmkay

fallen finch
#

@zenith widget yup, trying to save resources

#

(replying to msg)

Do you have "shutdown when not visible" on the browser source?

twin sentinel
#

Can you remove/uncheck that option and see if that eliminates the issue please?

fallen finch
#

sec

#

was afk for a while

#

@twin sentinel @zenith widget unchecking it solved the problem

#

now only works without closing and/or refreshing source

twin sentinel
#

So only the shutdown option is allowed to be enabled to get the overlay back working?

zenith widget
#

Restart obs

#

And sre if the issie is thete

fallen finch
#

both options need to be unchecked

#

Close source, when not visible
Refresh browser, when scene are activated

#

cyan island
#

I saw some posts saying that the Ground Control custom bot name issue was fixed and to restart GC, I did that, and still don't have the custom bot name, restarted computer too, still nothing, any thoughts?

wary halo
#

@cyan island someone needs to fix something at the back end so i will let staff know and ping you when it's fixed

cyan island
#

ah ok, thank you

fallen finch
#

Btw, tkanks Benno & KeiZar

twin sentinel
#

even after an OBS restart you still have to uncheck the shutdown when not visible to get it working?

fallen finch
#

Yup

#

Before update it worked like a charm

#

Now it works but needs to be unckecked

#

I must verify if there's no sound duplication when alert will be displayed

twin sentinel
#

Can you try to enable the option again and clear the cache with the button at the buttom please? A dev just made some changes, to see if it fixes the problem.
Then switch the scenes please and see if the issue still occures.

fallen finch
#

I'll try, sec

molten dagger

i don't know if im blind, but is there anyway i can see the top tipper of a certain month? there doesn't seem to be a date range filter under the "Top Tippers" part of Revenue History

#

@real escarp does that only work for the current month/last 30 day though? is there a way i can find out who my top tipper of march 2019 was?

twin sentinel
#

With a bit of work you can set the dates and name in the revenue history and add the entries.

stuck skiff
#

yeah i was trying to avoid doing the math 😦

real escarp
#

no easy way to do it

stuck skiff
#

will do!

thought it was worth checking if it was possible first

How long does it take for streamelements to update my subscriber count/goal? Every time i get a new sub it counts up, but its way off with the actual subcribers count on my twitch dashboard

round brambleBOT
#

@torpid mulch To reset goals:

  • from the overlay editor -> data on top -> goal tab -> reset progress of desired goal
  • from the dashboard -> activity feed on the left -> widget data on the right -> goals tab -> reset progress of desired goal
    Note: Goal widgets(progress) only counts up and doesn't go down automatically, if you loose followers/subs

This is about the "Hypecup" - i want the cup to tip over, so i put on the physics - then i see that there is 2 version - v1 and v2 (beta) - now my question what should i use for the best effect ?

Will try that. gimme a min

upbeat hazel
#

hi! i've been using streamelements for a while and chat alerts were working. Now when somebody follows, chat alert doesn't work anymore.

#

new followers aren't showing up on my stream elements dashboard either o_O going to guess that's the problem?

magic glacier
#

Try the same for starters, I guess.

upbeat hazel
#

but they show up on twitch

#

oh log out and log back in in OBS?

magic glacier
#

Yeah

#

fixed my problem. thanks @twin sentinel

upbeat hazel
#

alrighty i will try that, thanks

magic glacier
upbeat hazel
#

cool thanks

twin sentinel
#

@upbeat hazel We have taken a look at your account and the follower alerts should be back up working again.

magic glacier
#

Any way to add a keybind for creating clips or markers?

real escarp
#

documentation is there /marker for editors however last person to try it with a command or even making someone editor didnt work in chat

#

creating clips we have an custom api hold on

magic glacier
#

I meant just like I do it with the media request pause, volume up, etc

real escarp
magic glacier
#

thanks!

#

That will do

Good morning. I also noticed my bot name was missing in Ground Control. I have tried restarting it as above posts have mentioned.

twin sentinel

I will try to get a staff to fix your custom bot name in ground control.

#

@green kettle @terse salmon Please restart GroundControl. The bot name option should be back up running.

terse salmon
#

Its there now. Thanks!

green kettle
#

thank you! I'll restart it

twin sentinel
#

@burnt sky To your question about the two versions of the physics:
The difference is only the weights of the items has been adjusted a bit. Best to try out what fits you best.

@lament blade 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

#

@lament blade it can have multiple causes, is the resolution of the overlay set right?

round brambleBOT
#

@lament blade 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 β˜‘ β€œShutdown source when not visible” https://youtu.be/KDvLynUqXI4

why doesnt the twitch chat come up on my stream labs anymore?

@dull glen We're not able to troubleshoot issues with using our overlays in StreamLabs OBS (SLOBS) as we don't have the tools to support their software. We recommend using OBS Studio or OBS Studio with our plugin OBS.Live.
