I'm sorry, I'm new. Is that in OBS or the Twitch app?
obs i believe
You need head over to your streamelements dashboard here https://streamelements.com/dashboard. Then go to My Overlay if you haven't chosen an overlay. Then create a blank overlay to enter the overlay editor
From there, add the widge, position, save and copy link. And add the link as a browser source in OBS
This is a bit much. Is the dashboard replacing OBS? I'm confused.
By default, the text is black, you might want to go into text setting and change to a more legible color. No, it doesn't replace OBS.. You just adding overlay onto your stream, ie the text chat widget into OBS
It's simple when you get the hang over it... THere alternatives to adding text chat to ur stream. Not sure it's allowed here.
Attempting to make a current time command. User is in SC USA. I’ve tried ${time.us/est} and ${time.us/edt} and ${time.america/new_york} and more.
Can anyone tell me what is going wrong here? Need an accurate time command for twitch.
is there a sound bug with obs? When I emulate a follow or sub it works in editor but stream cannot pick up sound unless editor is open.
I get no sound either, I just use streamelemnts bot to add notification in chat. Like sometimes it plays, sometimes it doesn't. No idea
yeah ever since they updated no sound
You using OBS.Live?
yeah
There's Ground Control, not sure if that plays sound or not
wait theres a update for obs
How do i get my overlays
you talking about Control via obs?
updated obs and still no audio on browser source alerts or anything
i had to leave editor open today just to do song requests
No, it's a seperate app by streamelements, Google for Streamelements Ground Control... btw.. Do you happen to have OBS muted?
You check your sound mixer and make sure OBS is not muted and you raised the volume?
nothing has changed since the update and it worked before
@remote dew Into OBS? Using the link and adding it as a browser source
mixer obs is not muted
Can someone help with my last message please?
does anyone know what chat widget is this ?
Custom one
@sullen marsh Check the proper timezones for the ${time} variable here: https://discordapp.com/channels/141203863863558144/199460642975907840/328081534479499266
@remote dew 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
@zenith widget I did and it didn’t work. It showed GMT.
Am I messing up the syntax somehow?
Yes
Eastern USA
did you check the link i posted?
I saw that before I even joined the discord lol. Yeah. Tried all that to no avail.
Ok. I’ll try that. Thanks.
Ground control worked but why did that change?
That worked. Thanks. @zenith widget
No idea @outer stag
Whats the issue? @outer stag
i fixed my issue. just wondering why do people have to download ground control just to fix their sound alerts to obs.
Ground control has nothing to do with the alerts in OBS.
Hence why I'm asking, what is the issue.
but thats the thing it does. i had no alerts through obs untill i was told to download ground control and poof. it works now.
Now uninstall ground control and see if the issue persists
because i'm 1000%(yes thousand) sure that Ground Control has nothing to do with the alert sounds
i understand that but it fixed my issue
no sound now that i uninstalled it
lol
weird huh
Hey, i wonder if it is possible to increase a counter by a number given in the command. Like if someone says !test 20 it adds 20 to a counter but if either the same or other person says !test 25 it adds 25 to the same counter
Hey, I was wondering if there was anyway to import my overlay from http://Player.Me into your system and edit everything from there? I wan't to switch over but it seems like such a pain to get all my alerts and widgets setup again.
Going through each alert and setting it up the same way is almost nearly impossible and would take hours to do. Maybe there was an easier way to do everything.
@near lily ${count name +${1}}
@peak epoch We don't have an importer for player.me
Who do you have importers for? Maybe I can import to another service from player.me and then import into StreamElements
And any chances of one coming out soon?
Any idea why my alerts show up when tested but not live on stream?
have you added the right resolution on obs?
@peak epoch streamlabs is a editor himself. simpel
default made overlay canvas is 1920x18080
@little oak me?
yes
yes i have
often when you change reso it will not display at all
from site to pbs
so obs and site are same?
oh so dont change it?\
ok, its weird it works when i test it but not live
then you go to obs and make it 1280x720
ok
makes it to small to see that 1080
when adding to obs make it 1920x1080 then add the same to obs then hit ctrl F to make it fit
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
ok
i know its a lil weird but that is how obs works
ok
if that doesnt work we will try another option for ya
Welcome
@little oak do u mind testing a follow?
Am i the only one having isues login in to my dashboard?
@kindred ermine you can actually emulate a follow within the overlay 🙂
but if you want a real one yes
i know but that worked before and then when i went live the alerts did not work
the testing worked before
ok that popped up thx !
@thorny marten Please logout of StreamElements at https://streamelements.com/logout and then login again to your account (Twitch/Youtube/Facebook/Mixer)
hit this link Knudsen
oh wow did that yesterday and didt work but it didt now thanks!
Its stil a issues when i try to mange other peoples channel
they have to do the same thing to renew the auth for ya have them do that link for you and the account you manage
👀Twitch maintenance in 90 minutes.👀May impact users ability to go or stay live, expected maintenance window is 60 minutes.👀
hello~ just want to ask how do i make a list in chat commands?
when i press enter it just shows all in one line rather than in list form is there a variable for it or should i type it in a specific way?
@dusty mortar no can do.
Not like that.
Anyway i can downgrade the version of obs.live that I'm on? The newest version crashes my game 
@wintry lynx Please provide a log from your last stream. To do this, in OBS go to Help > Log Files > Upload Last Log File and paste the link to the log file here.
What? It crashes my game not my stream
Hi, it seems that Chat alerts are not working for me, any tips? Or any suggestions how to test it? Thanks in advance 🙂
@tacit rover Please connect your streaming account (Twitch, YouTube, or Facebook) with Discord by going to ⚙ Settings and then Connections here in Discord. https://streamable.com/eg92w
@wintry lynx was you playing this game while obs was running?
by a game/display/window capture?
Minecraft Lunar Client 1.8.9 by Game Capture
ok please do what the bot said and see if it can detect if it was a obs problem
Ok brb
Ok, I linked my twitch account to dis
@tacit rover They are working in your channel for followers, as tested.
Is there any reason for this?
Yeah but i normally only have one have one game running at a time
Ill try it out
Thank you for your help
@twin sentinel Thanks! I was testing it a while ago and it was not working, thanks for help 🙂
yeah try what the results gave you and see if not feel free to come bacc 🙂
Thank you have a good day ❤️
@spring portal 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.
Oh ya so basically the stream box is not centered
Something like this
you can try the reset ui
view then doccs then reset ui?
or maybe pop it out an resize it and put it bacc
looks like the purple rectangle on the left for the redemption is pushing everything to the right 🤔

he is not talking about the chat dock
but about the preview
he wants it to line up
afaik
and if not, then you still need to fix that too
because who wants to live like that?

is it the chat box from under StreamElements menu or the View menu?
the chatbox cuts off
Hello, iam trying to setup my Streamelements right now.
I allready did everything and nearly all is working fine.
BUT!
!sr is not working correctly. If I (the Broadcaster) do !sr yt/watchXYZ everything works fine.
But if a random Person does, the Bot adds a complete random Video, mostly russian Videos.
How to fix that?
You do !sr dQw4w9WgXcQ it returns the correct video but if someone does the exact same thing it doesn't do it correctly?
Now are they doing by name or videoID/link?
If I do !sr https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WBUOrVHhJ8s it works.
if other do !sr https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WBUOrVHhJ8s, it adds a random video.
using videoID only works for both, me and others
hey for aiden's spotify now playing widget, what would the custom css code be for playing with the font color of the song being played?

@lament blade
ok i know the problem now.
Disable in the Twitch-Chat settings, to remove Lins by itself
@digital flame i'm not familiar with that widget, but you will want to find the CSS line color: ######### and edit that
is there any way I could add a different color on $€ when I add it in overlay? like "€3 from X" when €3 is a different color than "from X" ?
you could try to do custom CSS on that widget to override everything but it is very dirty....
*{
color: green !important;
}
@jolly jolt yes, it is possible but that might be a #dev-chat question. ... i'm not sure how to inline style with the overlays
Thank you @prisma relic
Hello I am trying to open stream elements but only a white page with a help button is loading. I tried pressing control+Shift+R but nothing happened. I also tried opening streamelements using mutiple other web browsers but none of them would load. Is there any way to fix this so I can access my commands?
can you load others webpages: i.e. something like mine: https://streamelements.com/pjonp/leaderboard ?
@marble shuttle Something locally is blocking your connection to StreamElements. Please check for example your firwewall and clear cache and cookies.
@prisma relic Can you elaborate? But afaik you cannot load other webpages into the editor, as that would be a security concern.
@mighty fern You should be able to move the blue bars by selecting them and move for example via the arrow keys.
Make sure the layers are not locked in the editor.
@twin sentinel got it they were locket
how can i snap the bars in
leaving no space ?
they all snappy
i don't want to snap them in
but choose where they go
precisely
Disable the snapping in the grey bar in the editor, where the emulation bell is in.
ok thanks!
Hi i hope someone can help i was donated bits and i see they are on the website but no money has gone to my paypal plz help

Hey guys lets keep this channel a bit to StreamElements twitch support, thank you
Back to stream labs...
This way crucial support questions won't be missed or buried
can i duplicate
multiple widgets at the same time
so it goes all together to another overlay ?
all those things
together...
instead of 1 by 1
possible ?
@sweet socket what is the best helpdesk to refer people to for overlay questions?
the platform they stream on
depends on their platform @prisma relic
but its almost the same work for the platforms, only some widgets or for example loyalty, doesnt work for all platforms
@mighty fern You can group them and copy the group.
okay thanks
@prisma relic no I cant load the other web pages on my main browser but I can on my other browsers also sorry I had to take care of things
sorry for the delayed response!
@marble shuttle Something locally is blocking your connection to StreamElements. Please check for example your firwewall and clear cache and cookies.
@Benno#0872
no problem. i think you have a local issue with your setup/browser. it could be an issue mentioned above, or maybe a plug-in/adblocker? website is live for me on chrome/FF/IE browsers (Windows)
actually i lied.... it's not working for Edge ... are you by chance using Edge browser?
Is streaming x4 days/ week too much??
hello everyone! trying to setup my bot... what is PogChamp that appears there in messages?
so basically if I cange PogChamp with the name of my emote should it be replaced? 🙂
if the bot has a sub to your channel or you have the custom name set to your own, yes
cool, thanks a lot! 😄

is there a way of delaying a stream label changing to most recent sub ect by like a second? problem im having is an alert ive made hides it for it to reveal the change at the end. however as alerts have like a frame delay, it changes before its covered. hope this makes sense.
Afaik that is not possible with the default widgets.
that sucks..
Afternoon. Was just wondering how I go about adding a coloured box to go behind some text on an overlay I'm editing. Any help would be appreciated!
Add the box as an image.
how do i make a group out o a group ?
tryng to make 2 folders
to move them things separated
Use drag and drop in the layers tab and add groups via the folder symbol in the layers tab top.
Then move every layer inside the folder in the layers tab.
When you press the folder icon a new group is created. Maybe scroll up and down in your layers, to see them.
ok im going to post the alert with the problem i explained above, if you look at the box directly underneath webcam, you will see the name flicker as there is a native delay in the alert starting to which the stream label has beat it by a second or so. any ideas or work around ideas would be fantastic as i dont have a neat way of fixing this any other way. annoying thing is too its not all the time, sometime it works flawlessly!
or stremelements adding a update delay tab cough would be really handy!
@frozen sigil Check out the StreamElements ideas board: https://strms.net/ideas. You'll be able to add ideas, upvote ideas you agree with, and track their progress with email notifications. Adding and upvoting ideas also helps the staff know which ideas should be prioritized so please take some time to upvote.
@frozen sigil that is more of an "Overlay" issue i would guess.... really tough to debug and fix.
On an unrelated note, that's a dope alert.
is it possible to change the size of a widget without loosing the scale ?
it is simply having no delay option. my alert just covers the box. very simple, its just because the alert sometimes starts a frame before the label has updated you see it
just scale down the widget
@weak delta thank you bro 🙂 ff7 fan?
Yuuup! Got the Buster Sword tattoo and everything! 
ma man!
I would suggest looking at the CSS and trying to edit that for the name to give it a delay
i made a follow alert too if ya wana see? just annoying i cant simulate the menu correctly with annoying delays. only other thing i can think of doing is using the dreaded SLOBS as they save labels on the system therefor already have a delay in updating. i mean waiting for people to want to up vote, realise they are not logged in, then cba and leave to get a simple feature added.
if you give it an animation timing of like 1-2 seconds you can delay it that way (although that might be a dirty fix)
@prisma relic dont think i can is streamelements default label so no option to customise, you are 100% correct tho if there was the animation tab same as alerts id just set the delay to 1 second and be done
you'd have to edit the code/CSS to add a class animation/delay.
@prisma relic i think i just found it, if this works, i love you.
brb 
god damn it, no open to edit CSS the labels 😦
i cant get on my dashboard is website broken
@gaunt pier Please logout of StreamElements at https://streamelements.com/logout and then login again to your account (Twitch/Youtube/Facebook/Mixer)
can you see the CSS code?
for the actual alert @prisma relic yes, but i dont need this delayed, i need the latest donation name delayed, which there is only text, position and style options available with no CSS option either
I need help setting up a stream

so annoying, such a simple thing
trying to set up video source
@random stirrup For the best OBS support, please join their Official Discord @ discord.gg/obsproject
how do i down scale a widget without cutting it ?
they need to be both moderators in your chat @lament blade
so no, that is not possbile
Alright
I honestly haven't played with the Overlays much @frozen sigil ... i was thinking one of the Custom Widget text boxes
@mighty fern Downscale it via OBS.
@prisma relic its probably the way to go, but i have absolutely no idea about code or writing it. i can sscroll through a written one and seee what i need to change but not make one from scratch 😦
bot that downscales everything
are you selecting the widget solely
Make an overlay only for that widget @mighty fern
aright...
dont resize all in one
No, only make a new one for only that widget and add it to OBS and rezise it there.
but wut if i want to resize more stuff shouldnt i make more browser sources ?
one for each thing ?
t he only thing is browser source has to be 1920x1080 right ?
as you know, certain widgets can only go so small so they can still display correctly, otherwise they will stop working and look like shit
@frozen sigil .... ya i really don't know the best answer here. it's gotta be something more simple than what i'm thinking
i just don't know enough about how the overlays work and the work flow you are using
think of the over lay as just a video
its all it is
and just covers the label as its ontop
only issue is the alert starts a frame early so doesnt cover it in time haha @prisma relic
right; i guess that is where i am confused .... how are you "hiding" the sub name in that window?
placing a box in the alert over thee top of it
and why is the name changing before you hide it.
ill show you raw vid
this alert starts like a frame after the label has updated so the box does not have timee to coveer it
make sense now?
ya. that does help. i was thinking that was all handled with HTML/CSS
but it's the video that is actually hiding the names
no no the names are css because its in streamelements, my box is simply there ontop to hide it changing,
hey there 🙂 hope, you're all fine!
using SE for my streams and love it, great work guys!
now, i would like to set up not only one, but several giveaways. But I can't find any options to do so. as soon as one giveaway is running, there is no option to setup a second one (maybe with a much shorter duration).
Please help 🙂
My understanding is 1 at a time.
ok, so only 1 giveaway at a time. any chance to setup a raffle, to have viewers buying tickets for with SE-points? just want to have several mechanics to let ppl buy tickets for several raffles or giveaways.
right, the names are CSS it's the box that isn't CSS so the HTML/CSS updates first before the video runs. I was thinking you were moving layers (so text is above box, then box moves above text, then switch again after animation)
nooo much simpler to just add it to the video to hide it, i was thinking adding a delay to thee label would be simple, silly me
YO
hahaha. ya @frozen sigil it should be simple .... and it is, but i don't know if/how it works with the Overlay GUI
@wanton pendant There is only one giveaway at a time. Your can add other modules to let people gain/loose points.
@wanton pendant you could use Redemptions to 'buy' tickets, but you would have to manually manage those if you want like a weekly or monthly contest
hi i need help with changing my name for stream elements is that possible and also change the donation lik=nk
link*
@twin sentinel and @prisma relic thank you for your support 🙂
@tulip plank Have you renamed yourself, then a relog should change the donation link.
i dont think i have renamed my self how do i do that
because my name is my old youtube so is my donation link and i want to update it
i wrote in that chat as well
Yes, then someone will assist you if they are avalaible and know the answer. Please only ask in one channel realated to your platform. Thank you.
okay thanks for the help
@fleet falcon OBS.Live is only available for Windows.
OBS Studio.
okay
I'm trying to add a custom color for my Tip Goal but when I go to type the Hex code, I can only type 4 letters before it "locks out" and doesnt let me go back anymore. I can paste a code from my clipboard, but i cant type it out myself 🤔
I can't find my Elgato capture card on and OBS why is that? its made things so hard for me!

My friend is having trouble getting the link to add the chat bot to his moderator list on Youtube how do i fix this ?
@outer flint #helpdesk-youtube
@azure kite This seems to be a bug. I will report this internally. For now, I recommend to try to use the rgb settings.
while you're at it, tell them that when you select the sliders and then the HSL panel, the sliders stick to being in RGB, not HSL
thanks 🙂
Can i maybe get some help?
@digital thunder 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.
you gotta ask your question @digital thunder 🙂
How can i get my alerts in obs studio, i've been working on it all day long, it will not pop up in obs studio
@digital thunder 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
As long as you have an alertbox added they generally should go off. Otherwise it's not properly configured.
How can i add something like recent donater or something else

Not 100% sure if this is the right spot, but working on overlays any time I try to edit the Advanced text tab on a variation of an alert, the "padding" section gets pushed off the screen and the only way I can change it is scaling to like 40% size, which makes it near impossible to see. Tested at 900p, 1080p, 1440p on different systems. Wondering if anyone has a fix for that, as changing 15 variations and having to mess with my system for every single variation is extremely tedious and seems like some sort of oversight in how the editor is scaling the options windows.
Is there any way i can see if the alerts from StreamElements work in OBS Studio?
Once you have the overlay loaded into OBS you can hit the emulate button on the editor. It should show for whatever one you chose.
When i stream Call Of Duty Modern Warfare - The game is stuttering when i play .. but if im in the menu of the game .. it works perfectly .. i got a NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1060 6 GB - What could be wrong?
@earnest aurora Please provide a log from your last stream. To do this, in OBS go to Help > Log Files > Upload Last Log File and paste the link to the log file here.
Hey guys. Is there an icon to use for discord in the stream elements overlays??
@young mulch Some premade overlays have packs where you can download a matching discord image, otherwise upload a discord image yourself.
@noble field can you give a screenshot of what you are seeing? .... (hide the Address Bar!)
so earlier i asked the question about change the color of the text, and i tried color: #######
but it did not change the author's name to a different color
Any way to change the color of the authors name ?
@digital flame 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.
Even then that's not something we can help with as that's not our service.
I clicked the emulate button but it doesn't show in obs studio
Make sure the checkbox on top of the emulation events is checked.
The one that says Preview live on stream, that one i checked.
@prisma relic This is the issue. I cannot scroll down any further but I cannot access the bottom settings, and this seems to be an issue for any variations. Seems to be a result of the silly pop up windows used for changing variations, which are tedious as heck as a starting point, let alone when said pop-up windows just aren't properly functional, even with the "remastered" editor.
@digital thunder OBS -> settings -> advanced -> scroll down -> enable/disable hardware accel.
https://i.imgur.com/ggMe9ZE.png
@noble field What browser are you using?
That one is also checked
@twin sentinel Tested on Chrome/Firefox and on two systems with different resolutions
^^^ thanks for the screen @noble field ... what the guys with blue names said
@digital thunder Try to uncheck it.
@noble field Is it google chrome or microsoft chrome?
@twin sentinel I tryed it now, let's see if it worked
@twin sentinel Google Chrome. It's slightly less cut off on chrome but still having to scale to around 50% size for the page overall just to adjust things which makes it hard to see the options I'm adjusting
As a secondary suggestion (maybe there's a better spot for this, if so point me in the right direction) having to reopen the variations menu every single time you want to test a change is frustrating compared to how easy it is to alter and test base options in an overlay feature. Would be cool if there was a way to edit variations with the same ease as other options 🙂
Is there any way i can do so if the minimum donate is 10$ and everything above 100-200$ plays with a specific sound, also if the donation is 151 and still plays the same sound?
@noble field When you have chrome set to 100% zoom, how does the window to change the variations look like?
@digital thunder Use the variations.
@twin sentinel do i have to add every single one f.ex 151-152 and so on?
now that i found the menu; it looks the same i have:
No, use the at least setting. @digital thunder
@twin sentinel The same as the screenshot I posted above, just maybe a pixel or two more shown. Just tested in Edge and it seems to work fine, but that's unfortunate as I usually have M$ browsers fully disabled on my systems.
How do i set that up @twin sentinel
@prisma relic Are you able to scroll down all the way to change Padding options for secondary text?
@digital thunder Add a variation and check the settings which are available.
@noble field Do you have a chrome version for me?
As what make me curious is that your scroll bars look different.
@twin sentinel I'll take a SS with chrome, the SS I posted was firefox but shows the same amount of data on screen
I'm sorry i don't understand 😦
@digital thunder You can add a new variation and set the amount to be at least X.
Like this @twin sentinel
@digital thunder Can you scroll down with the "main tab", then select the text settings area and try to scroll down with this one too?
@twin sentinel
Now click on/inside the left area in the Screenshot and try to scroll down, to set the focus in the new scroll field.
i'm lost, but yes @noble field i can scroll to padding (Chrome)
Is this the max you can scroll down on the text settings area?
^^ there are a few menu options that are broke with the lower button container
@twin sentinel
that is all what you can change in the variations. Nothing more to see here.
@prisma relic What menu options?
@twin sentinel Chrome screenshot. Installing chrome on the stream PC to see if anything is different there.
@noble field Click on secondary text and again on advanced.
nevermind, still seeing all the settings.
@twin sentinel Tried it a bunch of times unfortunately. Stream PC worked fine on chrome just now so gonna wipe the main and see if that fixes it. Still not working on a reinstalled copy of Firefox though.
the right most scroll bar is hidden behind the ... errr screenshot:
i need help
Hi @pliant pilot, Please ask your question(s) or describe the problem you're looking to solve so staff or a support volunteer can assist you as soon as they are available.
but i believe i can see all options. when in the advanced -> advanced menu
is there a customer support number or anything i can call to change/disable my account. I accidentally linked the wrong account and now i am stuck with that account and it wont let me sign out.
@noble field Our Dashboard and Overlay editor are Chromium Optimized. We strongly recommend using Chrome. Opera GX and the new Microsoft Edge Chromium might work closest to Chrome as its also Chromium built. FireFox also works, but some things might look a bit different or not work. We do not recommend using Internet Explorer with our Dashboard as it does not support functions.
If the website doesn’t work on chrome, be sure none of your plugins are blocking our website or clear your cookies. You can try if the website works in a incognito tab.
so ive used obs and stream labs to stream many times, but ive tried both of them last night and it wont let me stream its just giving me an error and ive reset my stream key multiple times and connected by account and its still not letting me stream, i checked my output. my sources, everything
@pliant pilot Any error message?
it was the connection to servers timed out, make sure you dont have a fire wall up and your connected to a stable service
@ivory oriole this is the customer support 🙂 ... look for someone with a red or blue name 🙂
was this during the twitch server maintenance
@ivory oriole Please logout of StreamElements at https://streamelements.com/logout and then login again to your account (Twitch/Youtube/Facebook/Mixer)
is there a way to switch the twitch account that is linked to my streamelements?
my top chatters tab shows no data, my old twitch name is fonawa my new one is fonalol
@jade remnant was that response to me or someone else
yes
@merry vigil make sure to log out of the website and log back in, i've send your old and new name to staff to fix chatstats for you
thanks
@ivory oriole You are logged in with the same account as you are logged in with twitch in this browser.
Well, chrome is at least working in a functional manner haha so thank you for helping out with troubleshooting that. Really wouldn't have thought to try reinstalling my browser for a scaling issue but voila lmao thanks @twin sentinel
if you can find the log from last night you can upload it here
- Press win+r to open the Run dialog
- Paste the following into the box and hit OK: %APPDATA%\obs-studio\logs
- Then find the desired log file (usually the latest) and drag/drop it into this channel.
if not then make a clean log
@pliant pilot 1) Restart OBS
2) Start your stream/recording for about 30 seconds. Make sure you replicate any issues as best you can, which means having any games/apps open and captured, etc.
3) Stop your stream/recording.
4) Select Help > Log Files > Upload Current Log File. Copy the URL and paste the link here.
(Note: If you do not see an obsproject.com URL, you will need to update OBS Studio to version 22+)
i have four
2 from from the 26 and two from today because it was before and after 12 am
is that ok
they have the time in the name, if you know the time you streamed
i know i tried streaming multiple times when clicked start stream is would say "starting stream" then stay like that until i got the errror
deffo a server issue
[rtmp stream: 'adv_stream'] Connection to rtmp://live-dfw.twitch.tv/app failed: -2
unfortunately im still waiting on twitch support for info on the 3 error codes
try selecting a server that isnt auto
can someone help me whenever i try clicking on my dashboard on the streamelemts website i does nothing just puts me back on the home page?
also my game capture wont pick up valorant
can someone help me whenever i try clicking on my dashboard on the streamelemts website i does nothing just puts me back on the home page?
@amber pulsar https://streamelements.com/logout
then log back in
restart obs
settings > stream
disconnect then reconnect
and streamelemtns > log out
then try again and upload current log if it fails
wait whats the 3rd step streamelements then log out
the streamelements menu at the top
i looked at it my self and i think it said something with servers at the bottom
and i can record just fine i just cant stream
yes, recording is local, streaming isnt.
you are left with 2 options
- double check your firewall and antivirus that obs isnt blocked
and/or
- this is a twitch server issue, either wait for them to fix or contact them
ok
i factory reset my pc and havent gotten an anti virus so it must be a server issue
but i dont understand how my friends are able to stream
Hi guys, I'm also having trouble connecting my bot to the channel and making it display my timers. can someone help me ? to explain exactly where I'm wrong? I also set spam filters to 0, I created the timers but the bot doesn't display them in the chat 😦
Make sure to mod the bot
@dry hare So about last night. Will my dashboard and overlay for total subs work its self out?
Dunno
@dry hare its moded
@runic onyx have you parted the bot and rejoined it from the dashboard?
It depends on the API @slow spade
@dry hare yes..:(
@dry hare so is the dashboard right or my overlay and what can i do to fix it?
The twitch dashboard will always be right
@jade remnant do you know if windows security thing has a virus chest i can check to see if obs is blocked
i've also unmoded him
@dry hare no
windows defender firewall
@dry hare is there anything i can do to the widget to make it read the correct number?
yah
I believe there is a button in the overlay editor that lets you manipulate data
@dry hare what did you mean by it depends on the API
So there is not any chance, that i can do so if people donate 15$ and then up to 100$, and everything above the 100$ makes another sound, and also if the donation is like 145 or 323$, is there any way in streamelements i can set it up like that, a danish streamer has it like that 🙂
Because the Twitch API is what sends your sub information to SE. it isn’t known for being entirely forthcoming with sub data
@dry hare ohhh. so im not the only person who has the incorrect amount of subs on their widgets?
@jade remnant yah windows defender firewall
@dry hare i need too use OBS.Live ?
@digital thunder Play around with the variations. Set one to be at least 15 and one at least 100.
@runic onyx no
@runic onyx can you screenshot your timer settings?
@slow spade that would be correct iirc
i will give it a try @twin sentinel
@dry hare okay. do you have any idea if when more people sub then twitch API will like refresh and send the correct number?
hey i just joined and recently installed obs stream elements, where do i add overlays?
@indigo flax 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
@indigo flax New to Stream Elements?
Check out our YouTube channel https://www.youtube.com/c/streamelements/videos

https://obsproject.com/wiki/OBS-Studio-Quickstart
Want to learn even more? Here is an in-depth overview
https://obsproject.com/wiki/OBS-Studio-Overview
Thanks
@slow spade as the twitch API data gets pulled it updates the widget
@dry hare there
@dry hare thats super weird how the widget is just plus 1 sub. So maybe when someone else subs the API will update the widget to the correct number?
Possible, I don’t know much about APIs
@runic onyx your timer requires 5 lines of chat before it will fire off. Is it not triggering after 5 lines of chat happen within the 1 minute?
@dry hare i just put 1 / 1/ 5 just fort testing .. but it dosent work...
Right
Because you have to have 5 lines of chat within the one minute timer
If you have 1 line of chat within one minute it will most likely trigger if you type something in your chat
@dry hare any idea who i could talk to who has dealt with this problem before?
ok , now i understand how it work.. @dry hare ths , GOD BLEES UU !!
@pliant pilot have you tried re-running the auto config wizard in OBS LIVE in the tools menu?
so when im doing alerts on stream elements i change the colour of the text to yellow click save in top right doesnt save it?
ok how do i redo it
@pliant pilot its a tool on internet , i forget the name off it , but after making a test will show u the best server for u
it has to to be best suitable for recording and it wont let me select streaming
@pliant pilot
so that's your problem. ....
I'm going live. Do I just have to type in my chat "/mod streamelements"?
sooooo
@astral drift yes
whats the problem then cause obviously im not seeing it, i dont know what to do to fix it
Test your upload bandwidth and connection quality to Twitch
@pliant pilot
That tests directly to twitch
do i have to download the test
i was going to suggest inspector.twitch ... what's this tool?
you gotta figure out that Red Text Error you get Yogi....
i'm not sure why the auto-config test is failing? a firewall issue?
nope i disabled all fire walls
The twitch test linked above is a tool written by one of the OBS Devs that tests all twitch servers you select (specific ones, all Europe, globally) and shows you results for ping and upload speed.
ah... thank you. good bookmark
they are all just failing
In the twitch test tool?
you have something wrong Yogi. I don't know what, you shouldn't be getting that red error in your auto config
yes
Then the issue is outside of OBS, as the tool has nothing to do with OBS at all.
The only things that could mess with your connection to twitch
- Firewall
- Antivirus
- Settings in your router
- Your ISP blocking Twitch's servers somehow
Last one can be tested by using a VPN.
i checked firewall and i dont have one, antivirus i dont have one recently factory reset my pc
how do i check the router one
Anyone reported any issues with virgin media connections being unable to connect to streamlabs elements?
@astral drift yes. that will mod 'streamelements' bot if that is what you want
Literally just got cut off, come back on and now OBS live can't connect to any of the features
It would be the best to ask someone who has direct access to your machine, as we can't really help you with that. This channel is meant for bot and SE related things when streaming on twitch. @pliant pilot
ok
@wraith crane -> #helpdesk-selive
@dry hare i might have figured it out. its only a 1 sub difference so could that be becuase the !subcount command includes me as a sub and my dashboard doesnt include me as a sub but only my actual subs?
@slow spade Due to a recent change from Twitch API, these features are affected by the change:
- Ground Control does not have Custom Bot Name
- Subscriber count will count the Channel and any other permanent sub you may have (+1 or +2 or +3 on top).
We are working on fixing both issues, but there is no ETA.
OBS.Live still has Custom Bot name working fine in it.
!rename <oldname>
Thank youuuuuu
No need for admin confirmation? We could easily steal stats from another person, no?
No, as there are background checks which are performed before transferring the data.
The user details are checked in the background to match the old and renamed account.
how to program StreamElements bot as notify viewers on the chat without typing the commands?
Can you elaborate?
@twin sentinel no
@lament blade Currently renaming the bot fully works with OBS.Live.
You can follow this video guide to set it up: https://discordapp.com/channels/141203863863558144/494513233416421386/561516184718278676
If you don't want to use OBS.Live and want to stick with Ground Control, please let us know your Twitch username.
o cool
I red there would be issues with the custom bot name
But I don't have any issues with Ground Control
Am I normal? 😂
no, you just got it manually activated 😛
Hey I'm trying to stream my PS4 through remote play off my laptop and for some reason I can't seem to see it on the stream , could someone help me please ??
@lone hearth Due to the way laptops are designed, your system must be configured to run OBS on a specific GPU, depending on the type of capture you are trying to do.
For Game Capture and Window Capture (recommended), your system must be configured to run OBS on your laptop’s high performance GPU (default); for Display Capture, your system must be configured to run OBS on your laptop’s power saving GPU (iGPU).
If you are running Windows 10 1903 or newer, use this guide for instructions on how to configure your system: https://github.com/obsproject/obs-studio/wiki/Laptop-GPU-Selection-Windows-10
For instructions on configuring an older version of Windows (you should consider upgrading), use this guide: https://obsproject.com/wiki/Laptop-Troubleshooting
Btw, did anyone made a widget to display specific messages paid by users using channel points (not loyalty points!)
I'm running into some problems setting up chat sound alerts (sound files being triggered by a chat command) I've set them up using SE store widget, chat command to redeem the created store item which is a sound file being played when redeemed. I want to set it so that only subs can use them but it's giving random false feedback stating that the user trying to redeem it is not a sub as stated in the picture, any help to fix or is it a bug I can't fix?
Are you logged into the SE website?
yes
If you go to streamelements.com/channelname is your picture in the top right?
Hey, i wonder if it is possible to increase a counter by a number given in the command. Like if someone says !test 20 it adds 20 to a counter but if either the same or other person says !test 25 it adds 25 to the same counter. @zenith widget mentioned ${count name +${1}} earlier, but when i try this the bot doesnt count and only types " ${count name +${1}}"
Yep it is sudo
Go here and then log back in with your account and try again. https://streamelements.com/logout
done that, still a portion of the time is says item is subscribers only
Hello! I'm not sure if this is the right channel to ask. I'm testing StreamElements and I see that there's a way to duplicate my overlay. I've been looking for an answer on the support site https://support.streamelements.com/hc/en-us/search?utf8=✓&query=duplicate but no success here. So: do I understand correctly that I can work on an overlay on my test twitch accound and when I'm ready duplicate it to my main twitch account (production)?
I'll obviously have to setup the scene sets correctly.
Yes you can if you linked both the channels to your SE account @reef grotto
What you can do is just use your overlay link from your test and use the same link for the new account
@charred dune O_o ❤️
Hello All, Just wondering if there is a way to get a real time youtube count as a label onto a twitch stream?
This is a killer feature.
Hey so ive got a problem whenever i click on the My Dashboard on the streamelements site it just redirects me back to the site... Anyone know what am i doing wrong?
Hello friends, I have an issue. Tomorrow I want to set up a command !join so i can play against my viewers, they use the command and get put into a list/ que that i can then se whos next. I know labs has something like this but i cant figure it out on SE. Thank you

Hey what is this am in lol
?
hello guys sry im using streamelemnts alertbox link in obs and it worked fine but after every stream it doesnt work and i need to reset the link 4 or 5 times and it may work!!!!!
what is the problem
My stream elements alerts doesnt work
do they work in the editor when you test them?
OBS -> settings -> advanced -> scroll down -> enable/disable hardware accel.
https://i.imgur.com/ggMe9ZE.png
disable that
i disabled it but its still not fixed
yes it is
Why does my alerts from Elements, still not work in OBS Studio?
Anyone can help me with it
no it is fixed!
but after that i delete the source
and use the source again!
it takes time to do it before streams!
any suggestion?
Why does my alerts from Elements, still not work in OBS Studio?
@digital thunder same xD
That would never have happend in Streamlabs though
@digital thunder When you emulate an event, does it come up in the overlay editor in the alert box?
It shows in emulate but not in obs studio
Have you made sure the checkbox at the top of the emulation bell is checked?
Yes the one with prieview on stream yes
Please delete the browser source with the alertbox in your OBS and readd it again.
@digital thunder 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
Please delete the browser source with the alertbox in your OBS and readd it again.
@twin sentinel its also my problem i need to delete the source everyday before the stream to make it work
what is the problem!
Still not working @twin sentinel
@digital thunder Follow these steps to grant managers/moderators access to your dashboard:
- Click on your Channel Name at the top of the dashboard and select Settings
- Create a new invite at one of three access levels (Bot Supervisor, Editor, Full Control)
- Send this invite to a mod/manager to give them access to your dashboard. The link is one-time-use and expires after 72 hours if not accepted
Video tutorial: https://youtu.be/zl_h-ttZDF0
Please DM me an invite link to your StreamElemetns account.
Done @twin sentinel
i cant send meesage @twin sentinel
@civic pilot This was not meant to you.
@digital thunder Your alerts are working fine.
Yea but they don't show on my OBS Studio @twin sentinel
hello I have been asking for unbaning my viewers from mediarequest for three times and still he can't request since he got banned. Here is his nickname imix3r__ and nowciuu_fanboy. My account ID if it is required 5ab279b0377d79d984b3d906
@digital thunder Do you have a screenshot of your OBS window and your browser sources properties without the url please.
@digital thunder 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
Does it also need to be 1920x1080 in the emulate?
What emulate?
Overlay editor i mean, does it need to be 1920x1080 in there also?
The whole grey is 1080p. Add it like the bot described above please.
Okay
hello, just wondering how do I get sound alert variations on streamelements from the Stream store, on commands like idk, !anime sounds, for example but having it play a different anime sound every time the command is used,
You would need to create multiple items and add the variable to redeem them into a random variable in a command.
@digital thunder Got it working?
ok thanks I'll try that
@civic pilot Do you have a screenshot of your browser source settings with the alertbox without showing the url please?
@remote quarry Asked internally again to unban the users.
Hello! i instaled some basic stream elements overlay to obs, and they have lag, can anyone help me.
If i download them in my pc, they dont have lag, but if i put the online link from stream elelents, i do, but the internet speed is 250 MBps They are 1080p
Thank you 😄
@cunning fulcrum Please provide a log from your last stream. To do this, in OBS go to Help > Log Files > Upload Last Log File and paste the link to the log file here.
hello again, $(redeem anime) is how I redeem one item, do I need to add this for it to play another sound effect randomly?, example $(redeem anime,anime2) idk never did this before
There is a random variable you can use within the redeem variable. ${random.pick}
alright thanks again
@cunning fulcrum Please provide a log from your last stream. To do this, in OBS go to Help > Log Files > Upload Last Log File and paste the link to the log file here.
@round bramble here you have it ms AI: https://obsproject.com/logs/xlEwe7vVw87MFeBf
Mr. Benno, is there any way i can rescale all the overlay items from 1080 to 720 ?
without moving them manually?
No.
Ok. Thank you
Hello! I've been trying to manage my two Twitch accounts through SE, but I see that channel is already claimed (in both cases). I searched in Discord and I see that someone from Support can link my accounts. Is this correct?
@reef grotto Account Merging - Please note:
- Merging accounts only allows faster ways to switch between accounts
- Merging accounts does not allow data sharing between accounts - different streaming platforms, different type of events
- Merging accounts allows duplicating/sharing overlays between the accounts
If you understand the limitations of merging and want to proceed, please find the JWT tokens (!jwt) from both accounts you want to merge and you will be directed to DM them to a staff member.
You can find your JWT token on your account channels page ("Show Secrets" to reveal the token): https://streamelements.com/dashboard/account/channels
READ ME:
This is a private security token. Do NOT share this token here or other public places, only with a StreamElements staff member in private.
OK, I'd like to ask for help in account merging. 🙂 Is there anyone from staff here?
You can DM them to me and I will forward them to staff to merge the accounts.
can I add my own custom emotes to the bot messages for alerts in chat?
if the bot has a sub to your channel or if you use the custom bot name with your own name, yes
Don't take this personally, but... Do NOT share this token here or other public places, only with a StreamElements staff member in private. You're not listed as member. ❤️ That's just my spidey sense there. Or, if there is a different policy, it should be pasted by the bot. @twin sentinel
we understand, and that is your good right ofcourse
it just takes a bit longer now for you to get it done.
@reef grotto DM the tokens to @tight harness and he will take care of it.
@lament blade @wary halo I've been told that partners can ask the Twitch support to issue Lifetime Tier 1 membership to bots
No, it is not
dont worry boys
Stuck at 10 avg here
As we are Affiliates only, we preferred putting the bot under our name
give me 365 days, a six pack and a job for when i dont make it
Stuck at still doing support here in stead of streaming again 
😂
@lament blade Please follow our community rules:
- No advertisement or stream promotion
- Respect ALL server members
- No NSFW/NSFL
Thank you
r e k t

Ours, as it's other artists streaming, the main twitch is just used as a "TV" where our artists broadcasts, where the user is the bot
That was fast moderation, duh
for further 'chit-chat' we can move to the #general-chat 😉
@wary halo thank you! @tight harness helped me 🙂 That escalated quickly 😄 ❤️
Hello! I don't seem to be able to enable the Song Request module for the Bot. I have managed to get !song and !skipsong working, but !songrequest / !sr I get nothing and when I return to the Bot Command management dashboard, it's disabled again.
I'm sure I'm the problem
Hello, is it possible to have two giveaways running on twitch ?
Hello, - So a user changed their name on twitch, and used the !rename command on the streamelements bots, now he cant use commands that costs loyalty points, how do you fix that?
Do they have points in your channel?
Yeah all their points and stats transfered
Make them log out and back in to our dashboard.
@twin sentinel I'm sure that will do it, thanks!!!
Im pressing start stream and its says im streaming but it isnt appearing on twitch

Looking to move over commands from moobot to streamelements. Moobot has a feature that repeats the result 5x. I utilize this command to repeat my shoutout when I get a raid. Is there a way to get this functionality in streamelements?

I installed a overlay on streamelements but it's not showing the correct amount of current subscirbers
@lilac mountain Due to a recent change from Twitch API, these features are affected by the change:
- Ground Control does not have Custom Bot Name
- Subscriber count will count the Channel and any other permanent sub you may have (+1 or +2 or +3 on top).
We are working on fixing both issues, but there is no ETA.
OBS.Live still has Custom Bot name working fine in it.

Hi support, is it possible to have your twitch bot connected with discord and for example post the latest discord post in twitch chat somehow? thanks
Not an option at this time.
HI OK SO i just thought of this, could you make giveaways for bits? as in, it would cost bits to enter?
i feel like this would be a SUPER nice feature
No.
would you care to elaborate
That is against the TOS of twitch afaik.
Twitch Bits fair use policy
ask normal money? 😛
not really afaik
now youre confusing me lol
ask normal money? 😛
😄 ok have a good day
im trying to do a subathon but the setting arent working
Host alert doesnt work and in test mode its putting the name backwords in the wrong place.. help
@cedar ginkgo could you elaborate the problem please? 😄
@restive tartan 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.
Note for Mixer streamers: The above 2 filters currently apply for Mixer and we are aware its actually not how Mixer hosts work. We do plan on changing it, but no ETA on when.
Hey how it going
@safe shard hey The Guy, do you have any questions?
Hey what’s this all about my guy

Hi -I installed the NDI addon, but it will not show up in the Sources function.
@weak trail Download the NDI installer here: https://github.com/Palakis/obs-ndi/releases/tag/4.8.0. If you're not seeing "obs-ndi" folder in C:\Program Files\obs-studio\data\obs-plugins, download the archive and extract and paste both folders (data and obs-plugins) into C:\Program Files\obs-studio.
So had an update this morning on streamelements. Now all it does is crash and won't load my overlays on twitch. Please help
is there a way to separate your alerts in obs as a separate scene? or are they built in to the overlay?
You can copy the alertbox widget to a new overlay.
Built into the overlay
@simple vale Do you have a crashlog for us?
so its Overlay required? so that you cant have a separate link for it? Am I understanding this right?
You can have an overlay with only the alertbox.
ok so Ill just take the Alerts scene off my obs.. umm true thats an idea.. Thanks @twin sentinel
Its says woops OBS crashed. and asks if I want to save a report to my clipboard. but i cant even answer with an yes or a no. It just stays frozen on my computer. ! have to go into my task manager to turn it off.
@simple vale To find the OBS Studio crash logs, follow these steps:
- Press Win+R to open the Run dialog
- Type in:
%APPDATA%\obs-studio\crashesand press Enter - Upload the desired crash log, usually the latest, directly to this Discord channel by dragging and dropping the file into the chat window
obs crash log
Hi Guys sorry to bother you, but I just wanted to ask why my overlay disappears briefly when I change scenes in OBS? I have made my overlay in streamlabs OBS and uploaded all my images etc. Thanks.
i need help
Hi @pseudo barn, Please ask your question(s) or describe the problem you're looking to solve so staff or a support volunteer can assist you as soon as they are available.
When I click text over image for alert box, the text doesn't show up
@simple vale
- Uninstall OBS.Live and OBS Studio completely, but leave this UNchecked https://i.imgur.com/LBaHgM1.png
- Download and install OBS Studio from https://obsproject.com/
- If it doesn't crash, install OBS.Live too.
@pseudo barn Check margins in advanced text settings.
ok thank you
it says -50
Play around with that value.
@fresh harbor Check out this tutorial for OBS’ studio mode which allows you to preload scenes before transitioning. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W8iWsD2Lq3U
Thank You
Is it possible to have streamelements repeat a message multiple times? I'm transferring commands from moobot and we have our shoutout command repeat 5x so it isn't drowned out by chat.
No.
hey there! quick question, when I want a panel, I'm putting the image links to: set to the url of streamelements but it's not working
trying the merch should specify
it keeps wanting it add twitch to the beginning of the url
@heady lagoon Twitch's official help guide for Panels: https://help.twitch.tv/customer/portal/articles/2416760-how-to-edit-info-panels
i have drop frames on my streamelements obs please any help ?
@empty trout Please provide a log from your last stream. To do this, in OBS go to Help > Log Files > Upload Last Log File and paste the link to the log file here.
I know how to add the url, but twitch keeps wanting to add twitch.tv/merch.streamelements/laketoast
i already did everything in that website but i still get drop frames
@twin sentinel it wont let me uninstall OBS live but I can uninstall OBS studio.
Any error message?

Unplugging your chat and activity feed from OBS Studio

@simple vale Have you uninstalled OBS Studio before OBS.Live?
yes
@simple vale Have you uninstalled OBS Studio before OBS.Live?
@twin sentinel wait what? youre supposed to do that?
No, you should uninstall OBS.Live first.
@twin sentinel so do I reinstall OBS and uninstall OBS live first?
so i have to uninstall both?
can you know longer move assets from one overlay to another?
im sure this was an option
In the layers tab at the top is the option to copy widgets.
select the two papers to copy widgets.
@twin sentinel i cant stream it gives me an error box where it says sum bout it cant connect to my twitch channel idk if its an issue with twitch or with obs or with obs.live
🔎 We are investigating an issue that is causing the site not to load properly. We will update you when we know more.
@trail fox#
When I try to edit my overlay text nothing pops up like it supposed to
@trail fox#
@frozen sigil almost
@tropic crescent Left click on the widget you want to change and edit it. If you select it on the left, you just rename the layer. (Like you rename a file)
@twin sentinel OBS does not crash but overlays still don't load
hey
when im trying to uninstall obs live it just says installation aborted lol
how to fix it
Can you resize multiple assets together in the overlay editor?
@kind hornet mine says the same thing 😦
me too. uninstall and reinstalled and my overlays still dont work. I could uninstall OBS but not OBS live
correct
damn. Have to start using twitch studio. 😦
lol
Hey! It seems like my FFZ and BTTV emotes no longer work in my chat overlays, anyone around that could help me out?
Now I go into my sources and there is no browser option.
Hi how do I change my stream title I don’t see it
Anything that had a browser setting for my overlays now say no properties available
Now there is no browser option for my sources 😦
when are you going to be able to finally add a screenshot of the overlay on main page, not having to select the game, it seems so weird this is still a thing.
@simple vale So now you have OBS Studio installed and it does not crash?
@twin sentinel yes
Try to install OBS.Live again and see if it crashes again.
Also do your overlays work with only OBS Studio?
Nope OBS live still crashed and the overlays are not working in OBS studio
why is my stream elements bot not a sub like it is with nightbot?
@simple vale
- Uninstall OBS.Live and OBS Studio completely, but leave this UNchecked https://i.imgur.com/LBaHgM1.png
- Download and install OBS Studio from https://obsproject.com/
- Duplicate the current "Scene Collection" at the very top of OBS, call it something like "Backup" and remove all browser sources in that backup
- Install OBS.Live and see if it still crashes
@broken mortar You would need to gift the bot a sub.
oh ok
@twin sentinel it will not let me uninstall OBS live it keeps saying aborted
how do i enable chatstats
What are the variables in the !rename command?
@simple vale Have you uninstalled OBS Studio before OBS.Live again?
no they are both currently installed
@simple vale Do you have a screenshot of the error message please.
So question.. How do I link my live chat to an overlay? I'm using a super theme that I edited or whatever and my accounts are linked but when I try to test it out by typing in chat it doesn't show up on the overlay in obs
Am I just stupid or what? lol
@clear arrow You need to add the streamchat
It already has a widget for it.
I rlly should have done this last night lmao I was just so tired 😦
This is just the background image
and when I click that button it doesn't do anything. Can you only have 1 I assume
I promise it's on there man. Yeah that's the image but the widget is invisible
clicking that does nothing too It doesn't pull anything up
stream tools I click it doesn't bring up another menu lol
Are you sure that you are on your twitch account?
it's not for twitch
it's for youtube
I do twitch on friday and sat today is youtube live day lol
@twin sentinel
That explains a lot. There's no chat for YT. And you're asking in #helpdesk-twitch so we assumed
lmao I'm dumb I apologize
I clicked the wrong group I've been kinda rushed
There's a live chat for youtube tho man..
😆
Yeah there's a chat but don't have a widget for it atm. I can't tell you why 😦
Lame. Oh well I guess I'll just remove that from the overlay then. thx
Hi I’m having an issue with one of my chat overlays , it stopped showing BTTV emotes ?
I have a nerd or die chat widget and I’ve talked to them and they’ve told me it’s not on their end and it’s streamelements side. Is there a setting I need to reset or is it down or what can I do? 
@simple vale by any chance you forgot to run the installer with admin rights
Im actually trying to uninstall it
So i can reinstall because it keeps crashing
after the update this morning. My overlays dont work and OBS live keeps crashing
OBS studio doesnt crash
@simple vale so, you open obs with admin right and then remove the obs.live add-on here :
ok
@odd temple Counters? you could add a custom command with this variable ${count <name>} thats Displays the <name> counter and increments it by 1. <name> defaults to the command-id
