i cant move my cursor to obs
don't use fullscreen thats the thing XD
alt tab or windows key
yea, but using fullscreen will add alt tab delay then.. i don't recommend at all (opinion)
so, remove the bot and put it in again
it just that fullscreen is better for warzone i guess
how do i create a custom bot name for streamelements ground control? I looked it up and it said there was something in settings for it but i didn't see it.
will try to run the game as admin now
ok!
i have massive delay when i run as admin?
my observation haha
i am getting 15 fps when i run cod as admin
wait
is it compiling
shaders?
because i belive u have opnened like 15 seconds ago
it does compile shaders when u open it and yea that process easily kill your computer for some time
the same error again: StreamElements: failed to run commercial, please re-login to StreamElements
so i have to wait a bit?
how do i create a custom bot name for streamelements ground control? I looked it up and it said there was something in settings for it but i didn't see it.
yes
stopped?
yes
ok and now try to add gamecap to obs?
with this new error, the only thing i can suggest is the collection is F'd from the import
make a new scene collection, add a source then game cap, set it to valorant and try again
@jade remnant Still didn't work, I still have a black screen
and create a new scene from scratch just make sure of all is new
also leave MW in borderless mode please
oke i will
after setting mw in borderless, create a new game cap source and set it to "capture a specific window"
in the first option and in the second u select the game process name
press ok and tell me if it worked
nope.. nothing
gimmie 1min
no problem
can u screenshot your game cap source please ? @lament blade
Good afternoon guys 😄 I was wondering if anyone has a problem when the overlays are not showing up on the browser source. But on the site it's working no problem. Not sure how to fix this, any help would be awesome 😄
what do i have to screenshot?
your game capture source preferences
well i am dutch and all my settings are in dutch aswell 😅
np
I need help with the alerts
Is there a command variable to addpoints to a user?
I made the alert in the overlay editer how do I put it in my obs
You copy the url and put it into browser source. It's in the tutorial @lament blade
Check out the new Overlay manager guide: https://youtu.be/LwAfMIR3Cj0
Create an amazing overlay with StreamElements, watch our video guide to learn how.

@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 ☑ “Shutdown source when not visible” https://youtu.be/KDvLynUqXI4
@charred quartz
you mean this right?
Im trying to stream my iphone gameplay to twitch, whats the best way to do this and to get full quality without a elgato? I got a pc just not elgato
If the twitch app for iphone don't have the option, I don't think it's possible without some kind of capture device. I know QuickTime on the mac can capture the screen of the iPhone over USB, perhaps there's a solution for Windows by a third party for that?
Could use some help! Every Time i try to change my "Stream Title" within OBS. I select the area... but it wont let me type. Im stuck changing within twitch itself. any ideas? OBS is current update 🙂
@ashen marten There is a bug with setting the stream title in OBS and the Dev team is investigating.
In the meantime you can set the title using the !settitle command in chat (if enabled in your bot command settings)
Or with the Twitch dashboard: https://dashboard.twitch.tv/stream-manager
awesome. Thank you 🙂
@delicate citrus I tried using a screen mirror called LonelyScreen but the quality aint very good
The captues I've made over USB on MacOS are same quality as on screen. However, LonelyScreen uses AirPlay which adapts quality to the network conditions. If you don't have a Mac, or HDMI capture device, I don't think there's much to do.. You COULD point a webcam to the screen, and capture that way, though. Not very elegant, but would work.
does anyone know how to add widgets or alerts and how to test them?
Well Lonelyscreen aint that bad webcam over screen would look much more choppy in my opinion
Is there a capture device other then elgato that i could pick up at walmart for super cheap?
@tawdry raft We've released our new Overlay Editor revamp. You can check out the changes and how to work with it here: https://youtu.be/X5VzXjqAsjk

We are thrilled to announce the launch of the remastered StreamElements Overlay editor!
https://p.strms.net/newoverlayyt
Why StreamElements Overlays are better?
😎 Simple: Load your entier setup using only 1 link
⚡ Fast: Cloud-powered Overlays arrive in real-time, say goodb...
@tawdry raft You can test Alerts via the Emulate bell on the lower left side of the Overlay Editor. Simply go to your Dashboard -> My Overlays -> Pencil/edit button on the overlay. Make sure the "Preview LIVE on stream" option is on to see the alert in OBS/Xsplit https://streamable.com/vtulg9
@lament blade Avermedia has some, that are cheaper than the elgato devices. However, I live in Denmark, no idea what the selection in Walmart is. But there are other options, and I would say any device capable of doing full 1080p capture, would work. But you'd also need either an AppleTV or HDMI output adaptor for the iPhone to actually get the phone connected to the capture device.
I could pick a HDMI to iphone connector cord at dollarstore prob for 4 cad
if not walmart for 10
Well, I'm not using capture from the iPhone for live video, so don't know what options you have for connecting, but if the cables are that cheap, you could try to get one, and connect it to the TV to test quality, before buying a capture device. I mean if the output quality on your TV/Monitor is not good enough, it won't be worth getting a capture device. 😉
Well if I got a 1080p capture device wouldnt it stream it 1080p?
Depends on how you setup your stream. You can have a 1080p capture device, and have the PC scale the image to eg. 720p or whatever you want.
thank you i got it working 
Also worth noting, that when I connect my phone to the TV with airplay on my apple TV, it behaves exactly as in every apple keynote. That is, you see the phone frame around the actual image, and black borders around it. It's less of a problem in landscape mode, though.
So if you play games in portrait mode, you might wish to crop the image, and apply a backdrop, or move the phone to one side, and have webcam on the other, if streaming with cam.
Well Imma go try a couple of diff things and see what one works, thanks for the help 🙂
Have fun. 🙂
i have done all that i should have to do to make a custom bot name and the option is still not showing up. Please help
I created a tipping page, have an overlay active, and SE is a mod on my channel
@mint jetty 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.
thank you so much
Oki, so I've been having this problem since last week. Every time I open OBS, the bot stops working, or rather it stops displaying any command responses.
Anybody know of a good trivia chat bot?
@pure marten If your commands recently stopped working and you're using OBS.Live and a custom bot name do the following:
1.) In OBS.Live, click on the hamburger menu (three stripes) at the top left of your activity feed
2.) Click on Stream Settings -> Custom bot name
3.) In the "Custom bot name" field select "Set custom bot name", not your already existing username (with capital letters)
Note: If you already connected an account that way, the third entry will show as the account name (see image https://i.imgur.com/sO7fWOX.png)
4.) Scroll a bit down and click on the purple "CONNECT CUSTOM BOT ACCOUNT" button
5.) Log in as usual and "Authorize" the custom bot name
6.) Back in the Activity feed, click on the "SEND TEST MESSAGE" button and check if your custom bot name starts working again
Would that still work if I'm not using a custom bot name?
works for me yeah.
Oki, I'll give a try
am frenche
It works! @Rewdzi thank you!
np :) sometimes I have to relogin to make it work again just fyi
What's up dudes. So, how do I get the shoutout command to work?
I guess it's a custom command because I can't see it in the default ones
@robust gyro
Thanks @charred quartz fixed the problem!
aha! Thanks
My sub and my bit notifications in my activity feed aren’t working for some reason
My sub and my bit notifications in my activity feed aren’t working for some reason
@whole nova even after reloading it?
Yes @charred quartz I changed my username so idk if that affects anything
My bot doesn't work. Timers / commands - nothing
it sits as a moderator, but does nothing
I did what you've posted above
and nothing changes
@austere oasis do you have the custom bot name enable?
@austere oasis Streamelements on top of OBS -> Logout -> login
how do i change the name of my stream before going live?
My sound alerts still echo
@humble acorn There is a bug with setting the stream title in OBS and the Dev team is investigating.
In the meantime you can set the title using the !settitle command in chat (if enabled in your bot command settings)
Or with the Twitch dashboard: https://dashboard.twitch.tv/stream-manager
@stable moon Make sure to ☑️ “Shutdown source when not visible” for all browser sources (all OBS scenes). If using studio mode, uncheck “Swap Preview/Output scenes After Transitioning.” Also keep in mind that sound can play from any overlay loaded in the browser (editor or launched). https://i.imgur.com/6bWXxjR.png https://i.imgur.com/yY0wcFl.png
I did that
My sound alert don't go to stream
When its offline and online it still echos but nothing changed after I added the shutdown
@glass frost 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
@glass frost do you have the redemption alert on your overlay?
Yes
The tts voice don't say nothing on the stream
@abstract hemlock R u sending tests on my store?
Yes i was testing, i will try to reproduce this behavior in other account
Oh thanks
Hi! Is there like a socials rotator widget available?
The alert duration isn't working too, the text still on the screen
Are the Alerts down?
@glass frost it shuold be fine now
Ok i gonna test
Still don't working D:
i saw them working fine
The sound still don't working, and the alert duration too
Can be the streamlabs obs the problem?
Check the web overlay editor
Nothing...
hi all , nice to meet you , same issue, i am using twitch studio and no timer for me
do i have to use another bot ?
@runic portal wdym as "same issue"? we are talking with Go head about his TTS on redemption widget
ahah sorry indeed it was 2 hours before
for the streamelements overlay maker, how do i make a text box go over an image?
you can use the + on the bottom left i think
the just makes me add a new image or textbox. i already have the correct textbox but i need the text to apear above the image instead of the image covering up the text.
okay i see , maybe if you move the folder on the left (layers) you can prioritize it ?
@glass frost Did you hear it?
if you move it above
oh yeah thanks i completely forgot tha
perfect !
So on the tipping settings it says: ...allowing you to accept tips from various payment methods without revealing any personal information to the tipper
But when someone donates to me they get an email from paypal giving them my personal information like full name and email address. Am I doing something wrong here?
@glass frost Did you hear it?
@abstract hemlock Can u test again?
the message still on the screen lol
yeah but it won't be visible on stream
Only on the obs?
first take a look at the web overlay editor
on the web have ur test
yeah I really don't know what's going on
Why the sound don't work and the duration is broke
😭
i'm testing the redeption and its working just fine on the web editor
that include the TTS setting
delete the browser source and add it again
Hello Can Somebody Help me To Configure My Ground Control

Cause I Have A Problem I already Install But It Gets Log In With Facebook
A Long Time I Ago I Was Streaming On Facebook But I Erase That Page For Some Reasons But Now I Need To Log In With Twitch
have you an idea for me then ? My alerts are okay , commands seems good but not the timers
@cloud badge try this: close Ground Control in Task Manager, open a command prompt as an administrator, and enter del %homepath%\.se-gc\config.json
Not sure if this is the place to ask, but im using the widget "xman sub gift train" and for some reason it never works when someone sub bombs unless i manually refresh it myself on the feed. Would checking "refresh browser source when scene becomes active" help fix this?
@cloud badge now you can't open ground control?
I Can Open The Ground Control
@rose lichen i'm not familiar with that widget
@cloud badge it should ask for your login

Hey there, I'm using OBS Studio, and I have a random issue suddenly where I cannot edit my stream title in the activity feed anymore.
I can, however, edit the game to anything.
@proper jungle There is a bug with setting the stream title in OBS and the Dev team is investigating.
In the meantime you can set the title using the !settitle command in chat (if enabled in your bot command settings)
Or with the Twitch dashboard: https://dashboard.twitch.tv/stream-manager
Thank you.
Is there a command or a way to make a command to pick a random viewer?
@empty dirge you can create a custom command with the variable ${random.chatter}
Seems like exactly what I was looking for, will give it a try, thanks
This did not work or I did it wrong, I used "!commands add !slap $(user) has slapped ${random.chatter}" and the result was "Xyoryx has slapped ${random.chatter}"
so I can hear my alerts but I cant see them on stream?
@fast sandal OBS -> settings -> advanced -> scroll down -> enable/disable hardware accel.

@empty dirge did you do that on your own channel?
No, but with mod rights

@empty dirge i just test the same syntax and its working

@empty dirge if you are cletus, i see that streamer is using Nightbot not StreamElements bot
He is doing it for me, so thats a SE only variable?
Pretty simple request i think...how would one make a beer drunk counter? I guess making a commands that only mods can run but how would it be put togheter?
like command !plusbeer = [beer] integer +1
!plusbeer ${count beer} https://streamelements.com/dashboard/bot-commands/variables
not quiet get it. How could users do the !countbeer and how would an admin add beer's drunk?
${getcount beer} = Displays the counter without adding an increment
${count beer} = Displays the "beer" counter and increments it by 1.
${count beer 0} = Will reset the counter "beer"
awesome..will try it out. Thanks @abstract hemlock

how to add overlay onto twitch
Hello together! I have a problem with my Streamelements bot.... hes disconneted and i cant use any commands more... how i get him back to connecting?
how to add overlay on to your stream
i used the link from the overlay and connected him over a new source
when i push Part channel so i got this notification: The bot is currently not in your chat.
and if i push join is it successfully but bot isnt htere
its Done i got it
Ok this is ridiculous. I tried going live on twitch. Internet Explorer is way too laggy and Mozilla Firefox is worse than doing it on google.
can someone plz help me
what's the best option for super low latency? not necessarily on twitch... my friend and I often will "couch coop" games and we used mixer which was great... but we all know how that ended up
i have this theme but how to add latest bits on that ? thx GREEN FLARE SUPER THEME
@sharp pagoda 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
@earnest kiln you maybe have enabled custom CSS?
Hello, I'm having trouble withdrawing tips donated through StreamElements. I have my paypal linked but it shows I have nothing available to withdraw
do you have more than $20 for a balance @forest zinc ?
what's your question @sly jacinth ? i might be able to help 🙂
for redemtions?
yep
can you help me? I've been waiting for someone for a little while now
for the latency @keen belfry ?
yes
do you have the redemption widget on your overly and in OBS? @sly jacinth
So in Twitch settings, i think you can set the delay to "0 seconds" but it will always be about 2-3ish @keen belfry
yea I tried that. it's really frustrating, mixer was damn near instant. a couple second delay makes playing along with a friend not even worth ya know
ya. i'm not sure on that; check the setting in Twitch;
i don't know how they define 'best low-latency'
lol
do you mean SLOBS @sly jacinth ? .... i'm not sure. i can't help with their extension. But i know it works in OBS.live
i would suggest also looking at asking OBS if there is something for 'latency' but you said you streamed on Mixer before. was that with with OBS as well @keen belfry ? That's the only latency thing i know for the video option in Twitch. (there is also a 'chat delay') but that's probably about the same delay when set to 0.
yea I was using obs for mixer
there are latency options in obs but it didn't make a difference
Neither twitch nor YouTube support low-latency RTMP
You received an answer in #helpdesk-selive
yes I saw that I was conversing with someone else
Mixer used UDP which permitted near-zero latency
Hi I got about 2000 bits tonight and one sub and the recap email said to me that I had no revenue. Usually it lists the subs and bits along with tips. But this time it didn’t - is there a way to check what happened and make sure my stream revenue was counted? Thank you so much !
Twitch and YouTube use TCP which doesn’t support it
@graceful hare validate it on your twitch dashboard. You may need to part the bot from your channel and re-join it
@keen belfry low-latency has been rumored in the works at twitch for a couple years now but it’s never been turned on. I know it’s in high demand now that mixer shut down so maybe they’ll get around to implementing it
@dry hare sorry I’m new ish- not 💯 sure what that means
that would be cool, it's unfortunate for my boy and I
In your SE dashboard click the part bot button and then click join channel button @graceful hare
Yeah not having low-latency is a drag
It’s one of the best features mixer had
Hello, im a new streamer
Hello new streamer
agree. it was awesome to be able to play games with my friends from back home, we play like strategy games and rpgs and collab on decisions and character building and strategy and what not
You can still “technically” do that but it’s not as smooth
yea we tried lol it's not good
@dry hare ok I parted and rejoined
How come SE will not give out "points" when my viewers do things that will earn them "points" such as when they host they should get 75 "points" but it doesnt work
It may not show up immediately. I’d also recommend that you click streamelements in obs.live and log out and back in just to see if it shows up
someone
@sleek crater make sure the bot is moderator on your channel
@dry hare it is
Go into your SE dashboard and part/re-join the bot @sleek crater
okay ill try
PTBR - Eu uso o comando de loja !loja e o bot envia a seguinte mensagem: Não foram encontrados itens.
O que devo fazer?
@still bloom #🇵🇹︱português
anyway to get streamelements/a bot to auto ban a name
racist prick in my chat keeps following with racist names
so tired of this ><
is it the N word?
@gleaming aurora if it is; DM me. i will send you a RegEx filter for the spam filter
Hi guys, really sorry if this is a really silly question... But with Stream Elements commands, is there any way I can add a command to shout out my social media pages like Twitter, Insta etc?? I'm very clueless when it comes to bots and commands 😭
Wait, I think I may have worked it out.. My bad 😭
@topaz shore you could use Timers for that to have them automatically postet by your bot or (additionally) commands that you or your viewers can trigger
@sonic juniper How on earth do I add a timer to it 😂
There is a special section for timers.
Right okay... Lemme see
hola soy de argentina y mi stream ripea mucho alguna ayuda ?
@lament blade Welcome to the helpdesk! The regular helpdesk channels are in English but we do provide multi-language support in the following channels: #🇩🇪︱deutsch | #🇫🇷︱français | #🇪🇸︱español | #🇵🇹︱português | #🇳🇱︱nederlands | #🇮🇹︱italiano | #🇵🇱︱polski | #🇨🇳︱中文語言服務區-chinese | #🇯🇵︱日本語-japanese | #🇭🇺︱magyar | #🇰🇷︱한국어-korean | #🇹🇭︱ไทย-thai | #🇷🇺︱русский | #🇺🇦︱українська | #🇨🇿︱czech
@topaz shore If you don't want to have one big message with all social media channels, try setting up one timer and use different single messages with the "Add message" button. So the bot will switch between messages every X minutes.
@sonic juniper This might sound really stupid.. But what does it mean by chat lines 😭 does that mean how many messages are sent before it activates??
yes
@topaz shore If you have no viewers / nobody writing the bot will wait X lines until the timer starts.
So that the bot doesn't talk to himself. 😄
God man I am such a novice at this 😂😂 Thank you so much.
Fixed ⤴️
Hi, i stream on Twitch using OBS and since 2-3 days every 20 minutes (more or less) a streamelement message is shown in chat, saying "not able to load commercial, log in with streamelements to fix" or something like this.
The point is that I AM logged in with SE (with Twitch), and everything else (like music, chat commands, alerts) works fine.
What should i do to fix?
If that can help, i started getting this messages after cleaning cache/cookies/browser memory.
THANKS if someone can help me, i really need!!
is the bot a mod in your chat @hybrid shale ?
can u change the animation of the chatbox or no?
Hi guys, my bot is not working at all :/

How do you make an alert box
Does anyone know why every time you send a commercial, "failed to run commercial" appears in the chat? But the commercial is activated.
how can i change the bot name? i read it was an added feature and available in Ground Control but there is no option for me to change the bot name
@half socket 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.
twitch username is ReconDalek
@half socket Restart GC and it should be there.
@ionic kelp Thankyou! 🙂
@ionic kelp do i need to create an alternate twitch account to link to or can i just enter a name and generate a auth token?
You can use yours if you want.
Otherwise you'd have to be the owner of the account you add there.
Still the problem that the Stream information cannot be edited from OBS.Live yet?
Still a known issue. You can either use chat commands or use the one from view > docks > stream info if you connected your account in OBS settings instead of stream key.

@ionic kelp I connected my account, but I don't see that option in OBS.Live.
Not OBS.Live. OBS menu.
Go to OBS settings > Stream. Screenshot that.
Yesterday afternoon, the panel was directly deleted and I can't find a way to reactivate it.
Yeah. Disconnect and reconnect the account.
@ionic kelp Thank you very much, it worked there... Do you know why every time you send a commercial, "failed to run commercial" appears in the chat? But the commercial is activated.

Is anyone else having issues with major lagging while using OBS?
@brazen arch For the best OBS support, please join their Official Discord @ discord.gg/obsproject
Thank you so much! appreciate it.
is the bot a mod in your chat @hybrid shale ?
@prisma relic yes
how to transfer the themes from the website to obs??
@opal plover 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
Is there a command to link back to my subcount / follower counts? IE if I type !subcount it will put out a number showing my current subscriber count.
Are there issues with the bot at the moment? no commands work at all apart from widget based ones. Noticed this during stream yesterday.
alerts etc are fine.
SE is in my channel and mod.
@indigo torrent Are you using OBS.Live?
yep
If your commands recently stopped working and you're using OBS.Live and a custom bot name do the following:
1.) In OBS.Live, click on the hamburger menu (three stripes) at the top left of your activity feed
2.) Click on Stream Settings -> Custom bot name
3.) In the "Custom bot name" field select "Set custom bot name", not your already existing username (with capital letters)
Note: If you already connected an account that way, the third entry will show as the account name (see image https://i.imgur.com/sO7fWOX.png)
4.) Scroll a bit down and click on the purple "CONNECT CUSTOM BOT ACCOUNT" button
5.) Log in as usual and "Authorize" the custom bot name
6.) Back in the Activity feed, click on the "SEND TEST MESSAGE" button and check if your custom bot name starts working again
thanks! you cant use streamer account anymore?
Do the "Set custom bot name" and login with your account.
ty for the help, appreciate it 🥰
Hi - the bot doesn't seem to be responding to user commands in chat?
I had it setup to use my name through oauth - but any options have gone
@fervent quail Follow the bot message above.
So My ground control wont allow me to change the Title no more?
It's a known issue. Use the chat command for the time being.
Ah okay thanks
Hello, I just don't find out how to change the colors of individual text sections in the overlay editor. For example, I have a follower counter (50 out of 75) and just want to color the 50 blue. How does it work? (I don't know which channel to write it in otherwise.)
<font color="blue">{count}</font> out of 120
Hello. In loyalty settings, I can use decimal numbers as amount of currency. But for some reason, I can’t use decimal numbers in modules like roulette and slots? Is there any way to use decimal numbers as a cost for using different commands?
This seems like to be a bug with loyalty settings as I think Loyalty doesn't accept decimals at all.
Please, don't fix this bug. Instead, make that roulette and slots accept decimal numbers. That would be a very good idea, it would be very useful for some interesting stuff.

@raven kraken 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! I would like to know if there is a fix for alertbox not showing up in OBS but it works fine with the testfunction?
yo how can I log out my twitch acc and sign back bc my watchtime doesnt works 😦
@sacred lichen 10 minutes of watchtime are given to those in chat when the loyalty points are handed out (every 10 minutes). Therefore, loyalty must be enabled for watchtime to work properly.
There is no direct link between watchtime and all-time points.
It can’t be calculated from the amount of all-time points a user has because subs may earn points at a faster rate and !bonus all command increases all-time points for users in chat at that time.
Giving points to a single user does NOT affect all-time, only when giving to all in chat.
@sacred lichen Please logout of StreamElements at https://streamelements.com/logout and then login again to your account (Twitch/Youtube/Facebook/Mixer)
I can't logout ...
@sacred lichen 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.
I am having problems with audio and also when I stream I start to lag.
@main kettle To have Streamelements run ads for you, make sure:
- Streamelements is added as an Editor to your Twitch Channel here: https://dashboard.twitch.tv/community/roles
2.A) To make a timer, go here: https://streamelements.com/dashboard/bot-timers - add a timer with a response "/commercial" and 5/10/30/60 for the duration of the ad - example:/commercial 30
2.B) To make a command trigger an add go here: https://streamelements.com/dashboard/bot-commands/custom-commands and add a command with response "/commercial" and 5/10/30/60 for the duration of the ad - example:/commercial 30
@raven kraken 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 a problem with chat stats after i changed my name
@dim zephyr If you changed your name on Twitch please follow these steps:
🔹 Visit https://streamelements.com/logout and then log in again with by connecting with Twitch.
🔹 On the right side of the dashboard page that opens, select "Join" under bot settings. If it says "Part" select that and then select "Join" to send the bot to the chat. Don't forget to mod the bot by typing /mod streamelements in your channel if you have not already.
🔹 Post your old and your new name here so that we can update your channel's chatstats tracking (must be done by staff).

i'll send it to staff 😄
thank you 🙂
thank you 🙂
@dim zephyr should work now 😄
Ok try 2. why dont my alertboxes work live in OBS, but do work while I test them?
@lament blade Right click on the BrowserSource > Properties > Scroll down a bit > Refresh Cache of current page
then test again after doing that ^
form wich pc should i do it
the streaming pc
oh ojk
Thank you @wary halo gonna try it while live
you know you can just test it right now? 😛
because the next step (if refreshing the cache doesn't help) will need to change a setting that needs OBS to restart (so not preferred while live)
oh, well the problem was only while live tho
when I test it it works perfectly fine
should i start streaming and then send the log?
Guys why i cant see the SE tab right there?
sure, just 30 seconds would be enough @raven kraken
Guys why i cant see the SE tab right there?
@ancient otter use the OBS.Live icon on your pc to start and not the OBS Studio
@lament blade OBS -> settings -> advanced -> scroll down -> enable/disable hardware accel.
https://i.imgur.com/ggMe9ZE.png
disable that ^
your bitrate is terrible
set it to 4000-5000
2000 is terrible for 720p
nope still broken 😦
nope still broken 😦
@lament blade delete the source and add it as new again
done .. still not showing
and set it to 4000
its 4000
because you are trying to use NDI you might be better off going to the OBS server

custom bot name?
did he change his name recently?
no
@silk tapir Go to the dashboard -> right side -> part channel -> join channel (https://streamelements.com/dashboard)
channel name? no link
?
tried the fix by redoing the browsersource .. still doesnt work
@silk tapir If your commands recently stopped working and you're using OBS.Live and a custom bot name do the following:
1.) In OBS.Live, click on the hamburger menu (three stripes) at the top left of your activity feed
2.) Click on Stream Settings -> Custom bot name
3.) In the "Custom bot name" field select "Set custom bot name", not your already existing username (with capital letters)

5.) Log in as usual and "Authorize" the custom bot name
6.) Back in the Activity feed, click on the "SEND TEST MESSAGE" button and check if your custom bot name starts working again
he needs to do that
Ok tested it live with the husband ... tried a host from his to me .. but no alert showed and I also noticed it doesnt show in the activityfeed anymore
It did show there 5 days ago
ah, are we talking about the host alerts
that is something completely different
Twitch screwed everyone on those
@lament blade 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.
that happen in the last few days?
ow weird
it worked fine a couple of days ago
could that also effect the other alerts in some way?
nope
but it also doesnt show in my activity feed is that correct?
ok, well will just have to wait and see if there is an unassuming sucker who wants to follow my channel then to see if it works xD
thank you for your time Ruben, werkse! 😉
hahaha ty ^^ it did work so that good 😄

and you almost gave me a heartattack while doing it lol

Hello, my TIP alert isn't showing up when someone actually donates. Anyone may know why?
how do I get tts on mobile app? with donations and subs feks

@strong depot you need to edit alertbox in this overlay:
what is these difference? how do i know which is the best for me .-.
@wary halo thank you Ruben <3
@untold crest thank u, literally looked for it for days lmao
I need help with 2 things
?
First my stream seems to start in IRL every time I start up even if I had ended it and haven't changed it from the game I was playing previously. Secondly the streamelements addon to obs will let me change the game that i'm playing but wont allow me to change the stream title in the activity feed area.
@olive musk There is a bug with setting the stream title in OBS and the Dev team is investigating.
In the meantime you can set the title using the !settitle command in chat (if enabled in your bot command settings)
Or with the Twitch dashboard: https://dashboard.twitch.tv/stream-manager
Is there a way to make sure I'm not starting or appearing in IRL?
Same as above but replace title with game.
oh so its just a bug rn? Fair enough
Yes.
Thank you
i need help

Hey there. I would like to know your opinion. I use OBS Studio and StreamElements. I have 4 browser sources. Each source contain ether an alertbox, eventbox, store redemption or a countdown timer. Does anyone know how that will impact my performance? Should I try to use as few browser sources as possible?
I like it this way. because then I can use the same sources on multiple scenes. But place them where I want on the scene.
thanks! im new in this 😛
is there also an issue with changing the transitions and stingers because i right click on a scene and select a new one for one scene but when i change scene it defaults back to the original tranision again?
is there also an issue with changing the transitions and stingers because i right click on a scene and select a new one for one scene but when i change scene it defaults back to the original tranision again?
@opaque heath no issues there
@silk tapir ya rly couldnt tell the difference though was hoping to know some information like difference on each
@fresh vigil do you mean 4 browser sources in each scene or 4 across all scenes?
@jade remnant 4 in one
@dusk bough How higher you go how better internet you need
so lower the better for shittier ones
yeah
@jade remnant
as long as they are set to "shutdown when inactive" it will be fine.
Thanks! 👍
so lower the better for shittier ones
@dusk bough what are we talking about here?
Any reason you've got them separated?
@wary halo #helpdesk-twitch message
ah
I'm having trouble with the Bot Commands on my channel. Every time I'm offline and try testing it, the Redemption registers in the chat. However, every time I start a stream. it automatically disappears. and I have redemption commands set. After following the above suggestion of renaming the bot, now SE has disappeared from my stream. Any ideas?
hey^^ im just setting up my StreamElements Chat alerts - whenever i change the messages it says "saved" but as soon as i go to the next tab it just resets 🤔
@lament blade What browser are you doing it in?
Chrome would be the one to play nice for sure.
alright works fine thanks 🙂
How can I get a leaderboard for time watched? Or like a rank for watchtime?
@whole nova 10 minutes of watchtime are given to those in chat when the loyalty points are handed out (every 10 minutes). Therefore, loyalty must be enabled for watchtime to work properly.
There is no direct link between watchtime and all-time points.
It can’t be calculated from the amount of all-time points a user has because subs may earn points at a faster rate and !bonus all command increases all-time points for users in chat at that time.
Giving points to a single user does NOT affect all-time, only when giving to all in chat.
When I do !watchtime it doesnt say a rank for watching it. It just says how many hours they watched it
When I do !watchtime it doesnt say a rank for watching it. It just says how many hours they watched it
@whole nova for leaderboard do !points
or !top points
@lament blade Streamelements on top of OBS -> Logout -> login
@wary halo but I use my points for giveaways so they dont really correlate with time watched. And they can gamble them too. Theres no way to do like !rank "You have watched this stream for 15 hours Rank: 50/500" or whatever
@ionic kelp I'm using Firefox. Should I try through Chrome?
@wary halo but I use my points for giveaways so they dont really correlate with time watched. And they can gamble them too. Theres no way to do like !rank "You have watched this stream for 15 hours Rank: 50/500" or whatever
@whole nova that doesn't exist afaik
just the points leaderboard
Can I make the points leaderboard command do all time instead of current?
There should be !top alltime
Hello, donations not appearing! I am currently live streaming a charity event and need help ASAP!!
@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 ☑ “Shutdown source when not visible” https://youtu.be/KDvLynUqXI4

@cobalt star Streamelements on top of OBS -> Logout -> login
Hi there all, does anyone know if there is a way to pause alerts during gameplay and have them resume when unpaused?
You can pause alerts in the activity feed.
The streamelements feed or the twitch feed Benno?
StreamElements Acivity feed
ok thank you!
Benno if you're still here and don't mind is there a way I can add a pause alerts hot key to my stream deck?
Afaik the SD is capable to do so. https://blog.streamelements.com/streamelements-obs-live-elgato-stream-deck-the-perfect-match-85c194bf894a
so I'm not sure what happened but i can't change my stream title from stream Elements any more
@upbeat ridge There is a bug with setting the stream title in OBS and the Dev team is investigating.

How do I bring my chat up in OBS?
@covert bluff you using streamelements obs or the normal one?
i think streamelements
send a screenshot of your obs
StreamElements > Chat
if i am not wrong
@silk tapir you are not, but there are multiple options
true
yes that was it! thank you so much
and then it would still be: View > Docks > Chat
but you didn't say it 😛
Hi, i have a question, when i stream using OBS on twitch my output video chops a quater off the right side of the video. Could this be due to using a 2560x1440 wide monitor?
yes
Yea I found it @silk tapir I had no clue where to look at first
check your base canvas and output resolution in OBS @carmine lotus
@wary halo i can't open obs so yeah i couldn't see the real option 😛
i didn't open OBS either
Ok i forgot
base canvas?
i need help just installed obs and stuff trying to start streaming but not sure what to do to get everything set up
how come when you add a sub goal it still counts the subs that has unsubbed so it says i have 142 subs but its like i need to reset it because i dont have that many right now?
i only have game capture and display capture as sources
@buoyant schooner Log in and start streaming
I need some help with the transitions

I'm constantly dropping frames. At first I was thinking it was my isp but now I'm not so certain
@subtle sonnet 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 have 32gb ram, an I9 9900k, and an rtx 2080. I have a 1gb down and 40mbps up. I stream with nvenc at 6000k bit rate
I uploaded the log
I've updated windows, reinstalled nvidia drivers, reinstalled obs... I am running out of things to try
@subtle sonnet Dropped Frames means that you have a bad connection between your device and the streaming platform and most likely something related to your ISP not handling the connection properly.
Speed tests usually cannot help solve this problem and its best to use this guide: https://obsproject.com/wiki/Dropped-Frames-and-General-Connection-Issues
If you stream to twitch, use the !twitchtest command and do a connection test to your regional servers.
I am doing the twitch test. It is potentially my isp but I have my doubts on that as well
I immediately drop frames as soon as I click start streaming. doing a speed test for my isp seems to indicate its fine. I'm really at a loss on this one

hey there, I recently changed my name on Twitch and after letting the bot rejoin my channel, everything seemed to work fine until I noticed that the chat stats reported Error 404. Now, I don't care about the stats I had previously and just waited for a month, hoping the system would need some time to recognize the change, but without any luck. Am I missing something or is there further user interaction required for this feature to work again? Thanks a lot in advance 🙂

i'll send it over to staff so they can fix that
@wary halo thank you very much! 🙂
How do I get the ovelay on my stream for Xbox
@ashen fox everything should work now
@digital crescent Consoles do not have native support for overlays. You would need a capture card and a PC with OBS in order to have Overlays over your console gameplay.
We have an blog post about how to setup console streaming with our essential tools: https://blog.streamelements.com/how-to-stream-on-console-7b620b1c46c3
My past streams never had issues, but recently they've been unwatchable due to extreme lag. It happens with every game, and not even the recordings work.
Never changed any settings or anything
idk if its twitch or obs
@wary halo confirmed. Thanks again 🙂
OMG
@shut marsh they show in preview and editor?
No
did u watched the videos from youtube?
Hi can anyone help me with my logon name on streamelements
@lament blade 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.
means that system database already has someone with your nickname
because you probably have another account, YT / FB / Mixer or a second Twitch account
@lament blade Please logout of StreamElements at https://streamelements.com/logout and then login again to your account (Twitch/Youtube/Facebook/Mixer)
@lament blade Please provide your account ID found at the top of this page: https://streamelements.com/dashboard/account/channels This ID is public info and safe to share here.
interesting well under mixer It gives me no numbers
so how can i transfer that to twitch ?
That's because the mixer one was made first we can exchange the username between your accounts
send an email to support@streamelemenets.com
Okay what should be the header or what do I need to include in the email
Question would I still be able to login and do what I need
if i just logon as is
or will the mixer account be deleted once mixer closes
ohg rigth but i wont be able to use certain features
ugh
If you send it right now i will be the one to get it so i will need your account id (of each account), we will exchange the URLs between your mixer and twitch account nothing else.
@lament blade Please ask your question in one helpdesk channel only. A support volunteer or StreamElements staff member will assist you as soon as they are available. Asking in multiple places will only result in confusion, not faster answers. Thank you for your patience.
I tried to delete my YouTube account from streamelements page but I can't. I used my JWT token clicked to delete my account and nothing happened

My alerts won’t show up!
does it only work while streaming?
my stream gets pixelated I stream in administrative mode I am using a ps4 and streamelements
@long cape pixelation is related to low bitrate and low mipmaping, ocilations in upload speed cause that too
@abstract hemlock still showing me as 4021 bud

Is this the right place to ask for support on StreamElements? I have 100+ Twitch followers and cannot get SE-Pay activated. Any help would be appreciated.
@abstract hemlock would you know how to rework overlays from streamelements to fit the OBS screen?
@plush bane SE.PAY is available for streamers who are atleast 18 years old, with bank account under their name in one of the following countries and have at least 101 Follower (Twitch) / 101 Subscribers (Youtube):
Austria, Belgium, Czech Republic, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Ireland , Italy, Netherlands, Poland, Portugal, Slovakia, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, United Kingdom, United States.
If you meet these criteria and don’t see SE.Pay, let us know.
For information on SE.Pay payment methods, their fees, and settlement times see https://streamelements.com/dashboard/tipping/fees.
@small yew you can change the dimensions here
but then make sure to press "edit" and then check everything is placed correctly

When I import tools from streamlabs it says ‘’An error occourred’’ for some reason....
@abstract hemlock so does this mean the whole page has to be modified in order to use it to those settings? I changed the size however the over lay still has the same size its just been cropped down
@small yew To add your overlays to OBS, add a new browser source in your scene. Paste your overlay URL in the browser source properties, set the dimensions to 1920x1080 (unless you changed them on the website), and ☑ “Shutdown source when not visible” https://youtu.be/KDvLynUqXI4
I see the activation link now, thanks so much for pushing through
Is there a command to see how many subs someone has gifted
why wont Item redemption alerts show up?
no, but it shows in the SE twitch extension, you can hover over the gift badge and it shows on the leaderboard above the chat @whole nova

@somber idol that sounds like you are not connected to Twitch
@round bramble That video was slightly helpful but didnt fix the issue
it happened mid stream when it stopped
and if i go to settings i tells me to disconnect account
what chat dock are you using?
sounds like the streamelements > chat
@somber idol Streamelements on top of OBS -> Logout -> login
My monitor is not 1920x1080;
How do I change the res of SE overlays?
(Please ping with answer)
aha that worked thanks
Hi guys new to Stream elements just a quick question I want to put a stream time countdown on stream. I was wondering if there was a way to reset it? Thanks very much for any help! 🙂
my stream is not streaming to twitch
@orchid sundial Streamelements on top of OBS -> Logout -> login
Hey , having an issue with the Stream title and game update when I try to delete the current stream title it just doesnt delete?
and for the game title it deletes until the last letter then refills in
@lament blade There is a bug with setting the stream title in OBS and the Dev team is investigating.
In the meantime you can set the title using the !settitle command in chat (if enabled in your bot command settings)
Or with the Twitch dashboard: https://dashboard.twitch.tv/stream-manager
Oh ok, thanks
I switched my stuff to twitch but it still tryna do youtube
do not random ping like that
@thick hearth Streamelements on top of OBS -> Logout -> login
Is there any detailed guide on how to correctly add Chat to an overlay? It's the only element so far that don't seem to work when I stream.
Is there a way to link my twitch bot account to stream elements
@fast prawn 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.
@lament blade just add the streamchat widget on your overlay
Yer i wanna link my bot account to stream elements so commands get posted through it instead of stream elements
my twitch username is TheOG1nger
I'm trying to set up alerts, but suddenly, the example alert is missing the image
Renziito thank you. I actually already figured out my problem. I had visibility set incorrectly. All working now 👍
Hello i needed a little help with adding from streamelements to obs
when i add the browser link to obs it says add a width and high but when i do 1920x1080 it doesnt really fit the way i want it to or it seems weird to resize it
Or should i just add everything in streamelements for one scene
Or does it resize itsself
Anyone there?
@half lintel it needs to be the same as your base resolution
Like say i only wanted to add chat i would make it my base resolution in streamelements and then add it and make it 1920x1080 in obs?
@abstract hemlock
And then i can resize it to my likings?
how do i import an overlay with a link?
wdym? @half lintel
@novel junco 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
@abstract hemlock Im trying to add on screen chat right
@abstract hemlock so i would add it to a overlay in streamelements then save and copy the link
exactly
then move over to obs paste the link as a browser source but what should i put the width and high
when it asks for it in obs?
set the dimensions to 1920x1080 (unless you changed them on the website)
@gray ibex did you changed your username?
@abstract hemlock
Thankyou
Oh so then when i add it it will be in the place that i want it to be

Were do i put it? @abstract hemlock my streamelements looks like this
Should i put everything i need into on overlay editor for each scene?
one*
Yes
Set up an overlay for each scene
Then add the overlay for your obs scene
Then when you switch scenes in obs, your overlays will be correct
Why does my editor look transparent can i change the box color so i can see were im placing stuff
Sorry im kind of new to streamelements im from streamlabs
but on streamlabs you can just add stuff so im learning all of this
@dry hare
Each element is placed inside the editor which is a 1920x1080 placeholder which reflects the default OBS canvas. When you add your overlay to obs you’ll add it at 1920x1080 so it fits the canvas and the elements display as they do in the editor
I mean can i add a picture in the box, so i can see were im placing stuff better?
Not normally unless it’s the image widget

@dry hare
TY for the help @dry hare im gonna add my stuff now
Due to Valve making OBS's game capture unusable, you can use Window Capture for that
It wont let me do window capture
@fringe saddle Valve has implemented a Trusted Mode which does not allow OBS to hook CS:GO using Game Capture. See: https://blog.counter-strike.net/index.php/2020/07/30736/
You will need to run the game in either windowed or borderless windowed and use Window Capture instead. Alternately, you can launch the game with -untrusted but this will lower your trust score with VAC and may affect the quality of your matches.
Are you on a laptop?
when is obs live for mac?
There are things that OBS themselves would need to do before it's possible but no plan for now.
herro. My tipping alerts don't go off when ever i receive any tips. All other kinds of alerts seem to work except that. any solutions?
@radiant pilot You have tipping alert enabled in the alertbox widget?
yes
And your PayPal email is set here under tipping settings? https://streamelements.com/dashboard/tipping-settings
yes
If you do this does it properly respond in OBS?
You can test Alerts via the Emulate bell on the lower left side of the Overlay Editor. Simply go to your Dashboard -> My Overlays -> Pencil/edit button on the overlay. Make sure the "Preview LIVE on stream" option is on to see the alert in OBS/Xsplit https://streamable.com/vtulg9
How do you know you're receiving tips?
Is there a way for me to get my one click set up alerts into a certain overlay
When i click it,it makes its own overlay but i want it in the overlay i was adding stuff to
No. You have to copy them over to the desired overlay.
How do i do that
my alerts wont pop up for some reason when i play them threw obs
but will show up in streamelements
@ionic kelp
@half lintel To duplicate or copy your widget to a new or existing overlay, select the widget and use the Duplicate button https://imgur.com/a/Ng4uhRU
@short pike Right click on the BrowserSource > Properties > Scroll down a bit > Refresh Cache of current page
still wont show up
