called "alertbox"
Thank you very much. @zenith widget
@zenith widget and i dunno if you can see/control it, but if you replay last tip vs first tip it doesnt do TTS vs do TTS
@lament blade 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
@lethal frost TTS is not playing due to the actual contents of the message - i see an error happening after right where this part starts
msot likely the TTS voice can't handle those emojis
But they should be official steamelements emojis @zenith widget .. friend, who sent that tip said he was picking from smiley-face gallery right in the tipping page
@lament blade Twitch channel points or our loyalty points?
I understand that, but the TTS voice might have issues reading those out in general
@thorny musk can you elaborate?
What do you mean? (sorry about my english xd)
Elaborate = explain in more detail @thorny musk
Sure:
@lament blade are you a twitch affiliate?
@lament blade how long have you been streaming on Twitch?
do you have your emotes already?
Y gifted 4 subs in one of my streams and I got 250 per sub as I set in my channel... but the issue here is that I'm not suposed to gat any point for doing that as I'm blacklisted in my own settings... @zenith widget
get*
do you know if you are an affiliate with Twitch? like do you have 100 followers and did all the stream requirements? @lament blade
its actually 50 followers and average 3 viewers
to get affiliate
- steam some hours a month
ahh yes. it is 50. i have a chance then... ๐คฃ
what @lethal frost said is 100% correct
@thorny musk the ignore is just for passive gaining but not when doing certain actions
go to https://dashboard.twitch.tv/achievements @lament blade
check your path to affiliate there.
ah ok ty
if you have not met those goals then you cannot use emotes or channel points
yup. once you get that you get emotes and channel points
but we can't help with that. that is a twitch thing
ask for advice in #general-chat
๐
again; we can't help with that
this is for StreamElements Twitch help
Meeting the goals for me is Odd have met days and hours of streaming but not getting off the ground how would anyone suggest Community Growth
can you post that in #general-chat @prime wraith ?
Yeah my bad thought I was in there lol

@lament blade your questions are irrelevant, you are being childish

Hey there, I just made an account for my gf and she did her first stream which seemed to go smoothly
but we cant mod streamelements

i can mod myself but not streamelements
@zenith widget do you know which emotes are TTS-friendly at least?
hey @zenith widget
@lethal frost try a different TTS voice choice perhaps
@urban yew hop into my DMs and we will get it sorted ๐
Hey guys! Is there a way to trigger the chatbot on certain Twitch Point activations? The widget I use can't handle twitch points, but would probably work with bot messages.
There is no easy way to read the Twitch channel points
Is there a hard way? ๐
ya; it's ok with somethings but other things that have locked so we can't read them. they like their own built in Point System ๐
@zenith widget i just tried different TTS voice and it worked. . but its interesting that (czech language) Jakub cannot read the message meanwhile Silvia can
ahh okay, either way.. thank you
How do I remove a manager on my streamelements
I gave it to someone who helped me a long time ago and can't remove it now
Thanks
Hey hey, someone can help me to get the bot again in my chat? The bot is not answering because he has my name
@opaque kestrel 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
So Im about to set up some new alerts and camframes, I added the cam frame and then the alert box, the first alert I uploaded was perfect, but now no matter what I do it wont use the video I have chosen for alerts anymore it just keeps using the default. Any suggestions as to what Im doing wrong?
Solution to above: I had variations turned on
Hey I changed the bots name with a custom account but the custom bot only works when i have OBS open. Is this supposed to happen?
How do I get the Alert text closer to my alert, as is now is sits way below the actual animation
Hey I changed the bots name with a custom account but the custom bot only works when i have OBS open. Is this supposed to happen?
@mossy lintel
Yes, custom bot is dependent on OBS.Live being open. If close, it'll revert to StreamElements.
Okay thanks.
How do I get the Alert text closer to my alert, as is now is sits way below the actual animation
@idle apex
Play with the line height and/or margins of the text settings.
ya; it's ok with somethings but other things that have locked so we can't read them. they like their own built in Point System ๐
@prisma relic What if I used the streamelements loyalty system instead of Twitch's own? Would that be able to trigger widgets?
Nearly every stream point command dont work i have to turn it off then back on can i get some help for this please
Hi, iv'e only just started twitch streaming and could anyone explain what a chat bot actually does? thanks.
@uneven lake ... kind of yes... if you made a point cost for the command to trigger an overlay
@obsidian tulip Go to the dashboard -> right side -> part channel -> join channel (https://streamelements.com/dashboard)
there are a lot of built in features for the bot; depends on what you would like as a streamer
Also I have another question about the bot. I wanna add the bot icon to my custom bot and people tell me it's a betterttv thing. So I added my custom bot to the bot list, but nothing changed. Does anyone know why?
do you want custom commands, spam protection, chat games @amber anvil there are are a lot of things bots do
like the Twitch badge for a bot @mossy lintel ?
yes
Maybe with the BTTV; but there is no official way to add it
@uneven lake ... kind of yes... if you made a point cost for the command to trigger an overlay
@prisma relic so I'm using the multi goal widget that's triggered by cheers now. The ultimate goal would be to get triggered by cheers and points as well
@prisma relic ๐
you might be able to enable a command that costs X points to use. but i am not familiar with that widget
So lets say I have a camframe and an alert, they are the same size. Why on earth do they look different in the overlay editor? I mean they are identical if I use them as photos side by side, how do I ge them the exat came size when they get diffrent sized windows in the overlay editor?
screenshot would help here @idle apex and how does it look in OBS ?
I put both my cam and my alerts in the same adress in the overlay. I dont want multiple sources in my obs, so I try to line up my Alert and cam in the Overlay editor first then I have only one source in OBS to fiddle with
you want the alert image/video to be the same size as your camera frame?
yes because my alert looks like the fram is reacting
So basically ALL my alerts look like my camera frame, with diffren effects depengin on the alert
For this to work seamless I need them to line up to pixel perfection, and this overlay editor is exploding my head ๐
put the text over image an check that (note the text might or will bee off the screen)
Thanks
https://streamelements.com/dashboard/bot-commands/default-commands make sure this is enabled @woven birch
How do I find a reliable mod for my channel?
try #general-chat @fierce aspen
Thank you !!
@prisma relic Yep, it is enabled. Past quotes appear when I use (!quote), but new quotes don't get added with (!addquote) anymore. ๐ฆ
i'm going to jump in your chat real quick.
How do I get the Alert text closer to my alert, as is now is sits way below the actual animation
@idle apex You need to change the padding in the CSS
How can i have a timer trigger a command, instead of having normal text? i.e. currently i have a command "!discord" with a message exactly the same as in the timer, so when i need to update it, i need to update it in both places. if i can use the command in the timer's message, i only have to update the command message.
Hi, for few days now I can't edit stream title via Ground Control, how can I fix this?
not sure about Ground Control @crisp fossil but i know the OBS.kive is having the same issue.
@crisp fossil 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
Yeah, I know, I like to operate it via Ground Control, I'll use the twitch dashboard for now then, thanks
short answer @grim scaffold is that can't with the bot (it won't respond to itself)
@prisma relic so something like $(discord) wouldn't work inside the timer?
is what i found for redeeming thru command
original example $(redeem gg)
so those are 2 different things; you can't call !discord with the bot
but the redeem would redeem an item from your shop
ok, that helps to understand the difference.
so i definitely need to update both places if i wanna update the message in the command and timer. no way to share the message?
correct.
hopefully it's not something you have to update often?
but i can understand with those links and limiting invites
it's more for a different command, where the message changes every week !arena outputs an ID and password for people to join a smash arena/
ya... it would be best to edit the Timer as well each week. ... i'll check again but i dont think the commands can be tied to the timer
welcome @lament blade ๐ do you have a question
Thanks for the help @prisma relic
hello i am looking for help on using my own webfonts with custom css
i have some example code that is working vs code that is not but would rather not spam the chat til its needed
is it custom CSS for like the Alert box?
yes. the idea is i have a font that has custom icons in it for notifications
the app has a default font hosted on squarespace
err the cvustom css
that one works great
when i try to switch to webfont on my personal webserver it stops working
is it one of the SE overlays though?
no this is a custom as ive said
right; but in the SE overlay?
yes i am talking about this part
If people unfollow and follow
they get the point of following all the time ?
Anyone know why i can hear my self talk through stream elements, while streaming?
@sullen coral For the best OBS support, please join their Official Discord @ discord.gg/obsproject
Hi there, quick question: Is there a Goal Progression for Subscriber Points? e.g. "Get 20 Subscriber Points", "15 / 20 Subscribers"
Meaning this bar here.
all I can see an actual Subscriber goal.
If people unfollow and follow
they get the point of following all the time ? Plix can someone help me ? ๐
I've been experiencing a memory leak in my obs and i've pinpointed it to the browser source overlay from streamelements. I've opened my obs log and I found this repeated constantly: "obs-browser: missing emote definition (source: https://streamelements.com/overlay/scripts/app.js:299)" . Any ideas on what is happening? It's causing me to end my streams early due to OBS crashing because my computer runs out of virtual memory.
Is it a random amount of time before it shits the bed?
Or generally around the same time length?
@ionic kelp it usually starts chugging around the 3hr mark and I never make it past 4 hours. I can see the memory in my activity monitor keep on going up. I think it crashed when it was over 250GB!
How much of it's animated?
#๐ฉ๐ช๏ธฑdeutsch
@ionic kelp I have two video layers, one of them is transparent. But when it run it with just the video layers and nothing else the memory doesn't go up. When I turn on the browser source from streamelements the memory starts shooting up drastically...

Went through and changed my bot name to a custom (bot twitch account). It doesn't show up as the new name, it still shows StreamElements, on my web browser twitch.tv account, but the bot name on my Streamelements OBS.Live view. Help?
@slender prism 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)

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

Hello ๐
I'd like to ask something..
I tried to put the message into the OBS to say in the stream but in OBS doesn't play. Only on live.
Could someone help me?
My streamelements addon to OBS does not show the chat window. Sending/receiving messages from OBS never makes it to the actual twitch chat"
- The chat window is enabled
- Alerts are appearing (so im assuming the account is connected)
any help is greatly appreciated!

hey does anyone know if there is a command variable to move watchtime from usernames?
i think i've heard it before but can't remember
So this is kinda a youtube AND a twitch question. Can i add "youtube subscribers" alerts into my twitch overlays ? Or do i need to log in with my YT account and make a new profile on stream elements and make a new overlay for a youtube widget? ?
@humble ether you'd need 2 different overlays unfortunately.
alright, welp thanks for the answer @ionic kelp , now i can move on ๐
How to do i setup like points????
Can someone who's more knowledgeable about how SE donations work help me? If I'm planning on keeping my Streamlabs donation link, will StreamElements still be able to track "latest tipper" as a donation through my Streamlabs donation page?
no, the se and sl url links are specific to the provider, its how they track what comes in
Thank you - I'm wondering how it picked up a previous donation I got, then... very confusing! haha
Hi, may I get some help
Can someone help me on how to setup points
@twilit tide points set up are here
https://streamelements.com/dashboard/loyalty
I linked my Twitch account where my Facebook account. The matter is that I want to remove the twitch channel by "Closing the account" on the "Security" tab on my settings; provide my email and my JWT token and seems to work but it really doesn't do anything, closes the modal and the channel stills there.
I also tried to remove the YouTube account so I can have my three channels with the same owner, but I can't because for some reason Brand Google Accounts doesn't provide any email, the console says "email"=null and when I try to close it, it doesn't let for the same reason
closing accounts is manually done. this will be done by an admin when they are free.
no eta to when that will be
I'm trying to have the three on the same place, but have been struggling with it for a while
Hey, so i received a tips before setting up SEpay. And it says the balance is $0.00 even though its not. How am i supposed to withdraw the balance?
@jade remnant, so the best solution is bringing my Facebook and my Twitch where my YouTube is (which is what I had in mind in the first place)
"I'm trying to have the three on the same place"
so you want to merge them?
Yes, basically. I didn't mind the log in and instead of linking them adding the channel, I logged in with the three of them separately (my bad)
@gilded knot 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.
confirm you understand that and i will see if an admin is free
On Streamlabs OBS, I can no longer change my stream title
k, just seeing if someone is free
It just doesnt change, and it stays the same on stream and in the OBS tab
I'm willing to use SE, but I'd like to have them 'merged' so it's organized and I don't have to logout to jump to other platform
I'd prefer bringing the YT one because I already have the other two in one place
@jade remnant, thanks a lot
@tranquil hull im guessing you mean stream elements and not streamlabs?
Yes sorry XD @jade remnant
no worries
@tranquil hull 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
@gilded knot please DM @tight harness the jwt tokens,
stating which token belongs to what platform
Hi guys could get some help
I imported an overlay as a browser source but it wasnt showing the entire overlay. I was wondering how to resize it.

As in example, ${channel}'s Title is: ${title} | Game is: ${game}
Results: officialandypyro's Title is: Isi on takas | Game is: Just Chatting
Even though it's changed to Counter-Strike: Global Offensive already, it just keeps saying that it's in Just Chatting ๐ It does indeed update the category but not in the command reply of !title
@stoic leaf Not something that's possible.
@strong kernel the dev team has any plans to implement that setting to the bot in a future?

I'm having trouble getting the store redemption image and text to show up on OBS. On the Streamelements it shows a greyed out version of the image and sound if that helps.
Images do not appear when the item is a sound effect.
You need to make the items "stream perks."

@waxen hamlet For the best OBS support, please join their Official Discord @ discord.gg/obsproject
hey does anyone know the shout out command for stream elements. Everytime I do it, the link keep showing the @ sign for the users name
lol i literally clicked on obs support and it led me to this discord
can anyone help with the streamelement points not syncing up with the points ? im adding point on the site and people in my chat are not recieving it even tho the site say they have it. Also one of my viewer can not redeem a 1000 point item even tho he has 10k points its telling him he doesnt have enough for some reasons
@lament blade Twitch channel points and StreamElements Loyalty points are completely different and separate systems that do not interact.
@strong kernel not talking about twitch channel points
the loyalty points from the streamelements are not syncing up with the loyalty points in my chat
not the twitch ones. the streamelements ones
@lament blade Please provide a proper screenshot with the issue visible. If not sure how to take a screenshot, you can check here: https://www.take-a-screenshot.org/
i cant take a screenshot of it. it simple. i add points to people from the dashboard on the website. it shows up on the twitch leaderboards. but when people do !points in my chat the dont have the points updated
Please screenshot the command use and bot response from the chat.
You can't screenshot your chat?
idk what it will do but sure
รดk now its working with me
but when i was live it WAS NOT
for all my viewers
they were not getting the points i was giving to them. and the guy that has more than 1k points why is he getting the response that he doesnt have enough to redeem my command ?
How many followers and viewers do I need to get the challenges?
Not sure what channel is best to ask this in since there is no #helpdesk-desktop or #helpdesk-groundcontrol...
Ground Control keeps opening itself off to the left of my screen where I can't see it. What am I doing wrong?
@dense solar That's just Windows. Ground Control doesn't have anything that dictates "where" it opens on your screen.
Damn. Sorry to bother you then. I'll find an appropriate resource to correct it. Thank you.
not sure the best channel to ask this, but is there a way to eet a command as a timer?
@lament blade Please keep all correspondence in the public channels. Thank you.
@mossy pebble The Timers section of your account.
@strong kernel You have any idea why my viewer cannot redeem a command even tho he has the balance required to redeem it ? i have even given him points because it was buggy
Tell him to log into our site first.
its been going on for 2 days
no
he is trying to redeem it from the chat !redeem
and on the website he gets Error 404
I know what you meant. Have him log in to our site with his Twitch account.
@strong kernel I mean without having to copy the command message in the timer message box. For example just being able to call the custom command through the timer message box
@mossy pebble No, you have to make the timer from scratch.
yeah when he does that he gets error 404 when redeeming the sound commands even tho he has the points @strong kernel
it never worked
he logged in yesterday and today tried in chat on the site everywhere he keeps getting the error
i guess ill just send him here
you see with him
Do I need to be a twitch partner to get a partnership with stream elements and to get the challenges?
A friend of mine is trying to use Stream Elements bot on Twitch and it isn't working. Is the bot down?
@grand folio It's up to Wizards of the Coast who they accept to their program.
@mystic radish Bot is running as expected.
Ah okay
Hey, my streamelements and my leaderboard is not updating since i changed my name on Twitch. Not updating Chat Stats, Subs or Cheers. Anything I can do?

Old name: NitzConquers and new name: Niitzz
Tips for my twitch channel to grow
search on youtube, here is not intended for that kind of support @broken raven
Thx
is there a way to give a cool down for loyalty system? Like gambling and checking points with a 1 hour cool down per user is possible? or only have it enabled for offline chat?

Hey there, i've recently moved from Mixer to Twitch and i'm wondering if there is a way for me to get overlays and alerts on my Stream from my Xbox without having to use a capture card? (Something similar to when i could use Lightstream with Mixer).
@rain pendant 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
Is there a way to test alerts?
@mortal mirage 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
Watchtime stopped working for my stream at some point last week, any ideas how to fix?
i just parted it now to see if that would help, and then reconnected
I thought turning loyalty off would just disable point gain, are you saying it disables watchtime accumulation as well? @strong kernel
@modern moth 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 canโt 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.
ah, thank you!
how do i add a overlay
@steel tundra 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 โ โShutdown source when not visibleโ https://youtu.be/KDvLynUqXI4
hello i cannot change the title of my stream in activity feed or ground control.
@mint lintel 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
game sources isnt showing been trying a bunch of different things

@odd tartan https://streamelements.com/dashboard/giveaways
@odd tartan Please logout of StreamElements at https://streamelements.com/logout and then login again to your account (Twitch/Youtube/Facebook/Mixer)

i was just thinking that @oblique steeple thanks i just wanted to test it out
Hi all, I am trying to add chat alerts to my channel as I'm a ps4 streamer and are missing these on the active feed. I've enabled alerts and all the options for followers, host and raids. I have added streamelement as a mod to my channel. The commands, go live and new follower chat alerts seem to be working fine. But I don't get anything for hosts, raids and bits donated. Have I missed an additional setting? Really want to thank those who raid and host me.
@wheat sigil 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.
Thank you for your response. Do you still show raids as chat alerts?
i changed my name on twitch and my chat stats stopped working
@young terrace If you changed your name on Twitch please follow these steps:
๐น Visit https://streamelements.com/logout and then log in again with by connecting with Twitch.
๐น 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.
๐น Post your old and your new name here so that we can update your channel's chatstats tracking (must be done by staff).
Hello, and sorry to bother people. But can someone please help me with a query I have?
I am using StreamElements online as in through my browser to edit my overlays and I was wondering if someone can please tell me if it is possible to add Stingers to the overlay using the online editor and how can I achieve this please?
Thanks.
Stingers cannot be done cloud-based.
i connected the bot but my chats stats arent working

Can I export what I have done in the online editor back to StreamElements OBS?\

I'm having trouble showcasing my socials through the overlays. I have integrated them in my profile and have also tried entering the text in the "edit" option of an overlay but nothing seems to work. Any solutions?
@hexed iron You're probably editing the layer name and not actually changing the widget text. Select the widget and open the settings on the left, and edit the text there.
Hullo, I am having issues with one of my animated overlays. My valorant overlay is struggling to play its animation loop. I have tried resetting the cache and remaking the scene in OBS and the issue hasn't fixed. My Animated Rocket League overlay does not have this issue. Is this specific overlay broken somehow?

Oh hey that fixed it, what a helpful bot
@agile hawk Let's not flood the chat. A summary of the issue and a link to your OBS log is more than enough.
Sorry. Ive been trying for weeks to get a smooth stream using OBS.
@agile hawk 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.
Please provide a direct link to your log as described above. A link to a stream is not needed.
@agile hawk 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 already tried that
still having the same result
@strong kernel can you help me please?
Follow the above instructions. The log you provided does not have an output session.
Is !missing command broken? It was showing that almost every user was on stream about 30 - 60s ago
@agile hawk Same. Please follow the above instructions.
@tidal venture There is no default !missing command.
i mean {user.lastseen} variable
please let me know what I can do. been dying to get a smooth stream. my buddy's pc spec is lower than mine
Start by always running OBS as an administrator.
but his stream is much way smoother

Which option do I place to show bets?
Hello StreamElements team - When looking at my rewards dashboard for completed challenges, they all show a "Received at Today at {Time Page was Loaded}" rather than the time I actually achieved the reward. Looking at the JSON returned by the rewards API call, it shows the correct claim datetime with the rewardClaimedAt property. Is there a better place to report this bug?
hey looking for help on why my bitrate tanks randomly to under 1000
@zinc wadi MTG I assume?
Correct
Gimme a sec to ask someone.
The JSON has all the right data
What browser you viewing it in?
It just isn't being surfaced correctly in the WebApp (I'm a web dev, so I can help troubleshoot with anyone if necessary)
I'm currently using Firefox, but I've noticed it in Chrome as well
Doss it persist in incognito?
how do I activate the comands to duel and whatnot with points on twitch?
The bot is in the chat
Let me check @ionic kelp
@ionic kelp - Yup, even when reloading in incognito / private browsing, the time defaults to the page load time and not the actual approved / claim time.
@zinc wadi Fill this out and we'll toss it to the devs https://support.streamelements.com/hc/en-us/requests/new
Sounds good. I'm debugging the javascript now to see if I can find out exactly where the bug is.
Anyone know how to get the streamelements bot comands to start working?
why is this happening

Hello, help. Got a question: As an MtG Arena streamer, can I give out the Personal Game Code rewards to my viewers? I give out the Community Game Codes already, but I'm wondering if it's okay to give out the Personal ones for extra special events?
Question about subscriber alert variation... Resubscribe... is that going to go off when theyre automatically set up to subscribe monthly.. or just when someone unsubbed and then re subbed?
unsubs? we don't receive events for that. The variation, if the condition matches with the event, then it plays instead of the default alert. @red cargo
@exotic snow I would advise against it, as they are personal to you, but then again in the agreement you've agreed to it should be listed if you can or cannot OR you can ask WotC
@zenith widget Ok, thanks! ๐๐
Ok so this alert will go off every month that the person is subscribed
im sorry im confused
yes

i cant get my cs to capture the game image
@rare basin Valve has implemented a Trusted Mode which does not allow OBS to hook CS:GO using Game Capture. See:ย 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 withย -untrustedย but this will lower your trust score with VAC and may affect the quality of your matches.
@fast helm check variations
@wise zenith what 2nd tip option? download what?

thank u ^^
Thank you! @zenith widget
Hey, does someone know why my " Total Subscriber " count is one a head? I'd love a feedback, Thanks! < 3
!newtwitchapi
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.
i hate to bother yall again but i gotta ask, i have set up th death counter so everytime i enter the command, the user dies, but how can i set up a !deathset? like !deathset 12 and it shows, user has died 12 times
so " !command add !editcounter countername 0 "? thats how i set up the other command haha
thanks btw
lol i just tried it and it failed XD, im trying to set up that command from stream chat, could you show me an example? if thats ok with ya
streamer name please
can i dm it to you?

I made this video but i'm not sure if it's DMCA safe. Can someone watch it for me and lmk what they think?
Yes its DMCA
licensed anime in USA and you can get DMCA'd for it
@slow minnow So either leave the name here or in my DMs
lol so no? its ok, ill try
its up t oyou
Just gonna point out that it would have been faster to type out the name here instead of asking "can I dm it to you"

If you are referring to gameplay and such, you need to add the games as game capture or window sources
right now it is just like a black background

I need help. My streamelements doesn't show my bot as mute and it is in the channel. It is reading commands because it can be muted and unmuted through commands but will not type in chat.
Anyone else unable to change their stream title via obs.live activity feed/stream settings?
@vague roost 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
I fixed it last week by signing out and signing back in then it reflected that the bot was muted. Now it only says that it is unmuted. It is driving me nuts
oh so it's not just me then
@hot pulsar Go to the dashboard -> right side -> part channel -> join channel (https://streamelements.com/dashboard)
Tried that about 52 times
No and now it worked while I'm not streaming but as soon as I go live it seems to die
@hot pulsar 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
let's set the bot to a new connection; then change it back and see if it works
is there a log-in option in the StreamElements dropdown?
Nope showing as logged in
click on the logout.
mmmhmmm. that is odd ๐ค thank you for the screen shot
Just hit log out logged back in and still the same result
I can't seem to update my profile page. Everytime I click save it says 'there was an error updating your settings'
log into the website? your site token might be off @hot pulsar
I'll try that again
@upper steeple for the socials?
@ionic kelp yeah when i got to update them and hit save it says error
@upper steeple Screenshot what you have in there.
only have twitter filled in
Double check the link that you have for source @hot pulsar
try to open what you have in the browser
@ionic kelp not to mention the social media page under 'more' on the site is just a blank page for me
That's an issue with adblock. I personally experienced that.
Alright it looks like setting the custom bot name slightly changed the url. I think everything is good now
@ionic kelp ah thank you, turned mine off and now i see the page. Hopefully we can figure out the error thing on the other stuff ๐
Could you press F12, switch to the console tab, and Teutonic save it again? Look for chunks of red text and screenshot that.
@upper steeple What link are you trying to remove?
because links once placed, cannot be removed unfortuantely
its a known bug
i'm just trying to update my profile, the page title and my twitter link
yeah i don't use that anymore, its dead
aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaawwwwwwwwwwww you changed your name 
now i have to remember you by the new one
yes
I sorry T_T
but that instagram is dead cause i dont' use it but the twitter is wrong along with the name at the top
but if its a known bug I'm just gonna have to let it stay that way

real quick though @zenith widget do you have any idea on why the twitter module hasn't worked in forever in putting tweets in chat?
it stopped a while back but heard nothing about it when i asked way back when
this one?
yes that one
hello i need help
It gets limited pretty fast afaik
its all good, no worries
or you can try with all lower case usernames
@wise crypt 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.
@zenith widget will try that, see what happens
so I've been streaming for 23 days, all my followers tell me they cant find or see my channel, i thought it was maybe my twitch account, but i made a new one and that account also is invisible it doesn't show up, I've googled and apparently it happens to a lot of people but nobody ever gets resolved, what is this problem? my stream elements dashboard says I'm offline also.... any help?
Thats a twitch issue and we can't help with that.
And yes its related to us showing you as online and offline as well
i made a new account and also doesnt show that account live
if the directory is not listing you, then we are not getting the "Is Live" event from twitch
If you made a 2nd account and its also not listed in Twitch directories then its a Twitch Issue
how would two different accounts be affected by twitch
the only thing in common they have is streamelements
Then go here: https://www.twitch.tv/settings/connections and remove our connection
could it possibly be streamlabs?
and go live and see if that fixes it
@zenith widget can confirm, neither lowercase or the way the twitter name is spelled with uppercase helps the problem. So it comes down to twitter api then.
Ah well at least we tried ^_^
@wise crypt If that doesn't fix it, then we are not related to this issue and its all up to Twitch to fix it
@upper steeple 
ok thank you so much for your time i will try that
Okay so Iโm getting a pc soon but will stream labs still work if I set it up and go live on Xbox,
@solid burrow You'd have to ask them
is there a way to delete my profile on stream elements website and then re-create it?
whats your username?
marquezosrs
I can see the request being made - the reason nothing happens is because you have 2 accounts connected as owner type accounts
This means that the devs will manually delete the accounts
The request will NOT be processed automatically
because you have 2 OWNER accounts linked to each other
the devs will process the requests later today or tomorrow.
ok thank you
@unique atlas can you elaborate?
hey do any of yall know how to add over lays to streamlabs
We are StreamElements, and you just paste overlay URL to OBS as 1920x1080p Browser Source
thank you my guy
Hello. I have a question. When I try to use the commands, any dynamic data is printed with a * instead.
For example a chat command od "!commands" prints this:
@verbal thunderLive, You can find a list of all Commands here ***
Am I missing someting?
You should mod StreamElements bot
As it is Twitch URL protection which doesn't affect mods
Am I missing something?
@verbal thunder /mod StreamElements in chat
np
how do you set uo commands for your chat bot
Remember that bot should be on your channel (click "Join" in SE Dashboard) and need to have ability to chat (not muted, preferably modded to avoid problems with slowmode, submode, followermode)
If you need more followers, please follow instructions from here: https://blog.streamelements.com/creating-a-third-place-on-twitch-and-building-a-community-9a5b3188c685 - they are super helpful with building and maintaining your community
I need help, every once in a while , overlay (parts) are not being rendered, if i clear the cache , they will get rendered, the source is set to shutdown when not visible and Refreh browser when scene becomes active is also active. I tried everything to find it on my end (change DNS etc) , to me it seems that the apache server from Streamelements sometimes just doenst respond?
@zenith widget Sure, a viewer donated bits, the bit alert didn't go off. I replayed it 5 times, nothing. I replayed a recent sub and follow, worked fine. I went into the editor and emulated a cheer, worked fine. So I don't know what's wrong
You have tipping moderation on
and they have ass in their name
so their name is being filtered out
Thank you!
@hexed fern If there are a lot of assets in the overlay, some may fail to load, but this might be mainly due to internet speed
its a rare thing, but the only thing is to try to reload the browser source again until everything loads and caches
im sorry but internet speed is not a valid argumen
t
i have 1gbit full duplex
its a resolving issue of some sort
And its not rare, it happens constantly.
@hexed fern It is not Apache, We are using decentralized CDN to serve our assets. If you clear cache it gets whole overlay without issues it seems more like cache problem within your PC.
that actually sounds like a valid thing, is there a way i can prevent this?
I need help. I have a problem with a SE Bot on my Twitch chat - links are not showed up. First of all I whitelisted all used links still Bot was showed (***) in place of link. Then I removed Links Filter and still nothing. How to repair that?
you know what , ill just wireshark it to prove its on SE side
or maybe in obs (the function refresh is malfunctioning?)
i only had this problem in the latest obs :/
@hexed fern you can do it easier, without wireshark. You can add --remote-debugging-port=9222 to OBS shortcut and then open chrome://inspect in your browser
thnx!
@sturdy stirrup If links in chat are appearing as ***** either mod the bot or disable block hyperlinks in your twitch channel settings https://dashboard.twitch.tv/settings/moderation
you are really helpful! thnx!
@untold crest
lol @untold crest ofcourse now its not malfunctioning ๐
jezus
Thanks! I totally forgot about Twitch hyperlinks filter ๐
@hexed fern This is normal. When you take a car to mechanic it starts working properly half a mile from arriving there.
yes i know ๐
Haii the commands alerts preset overlay stopped for working and I canโt figure out why. for some reason the other week all my sound commands have stopped working but the js looks perfectly fine. Anyone got any idea how i could fix this?
Why can't I add my stream key under streaming in the setting?
I see, okay that makes sense. That is what I assumed it did but was trying to get my stream to show in the OBS and couldn't. Also you can do the overlay to consoles w/o capture card using OBS.live correct?
@burnt sable You can use Remote Play (PS4) or Console Companion (X1).
I'm assuming there are guides for those on youtube and such?
I saw several of them. Basically remote play/console companion is an app for your PC to interact in console.

hello, today i try to use the stream elements but it dont change the information in my Titch acount ๐ฆ
can anyone help me ?
What are you trying to change?
the store
Which store? merch store or stream store?
in the stream elements (site) i've changed the name of the coins and add a new item in store loyalty but when i go to twitch theres no change at all
Where exactly in twitch?
in twitch web site, although i've change the name of the coin and add a new item in store loyalty in Stream elements website. qhen i go to twitch website the'is no change
Are you referring to this?
yeah
twitch channel points and our loyalty points are 2 different systems
not related to each other
if you want to change these points and name you need to go to your affiliate control page and change it from there
Does someone know why my " Subscriber Total " is always one ahead instead of the actuall number?

We are working on fixing both issues, but there is no ETA.
OBS.Live still has Custom Bot name working fine in it.
I cannot change the bots name ๐ฆ
Thanks!

Hello
how do i test the follow, merch, tip etc.... Notification
directly on OBS Stream Labs
Can someone visit my stream because its hard to explain what my problem is, just do !followage
@lament blade 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.
@lament blade 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
@stable stratus What is the problem with the command?
it double reads my old and new name
When did you rename your channel?
Like a day or two ago
@stable stratus Go to the dashboard -> right side -> part channel -> join channel (https://streamelements.com/dashboard)
actually before doing the above
logout from our dashboard and login again
and then part the bot nad join it
@stable stratus we do have a default command !followage and i see that you have a custom command added
the API in the custom command is pointing towards your old name rather then your new name
hence why the 2nd one says its not working
I need help
Hi @random stirrup, 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.
@random stirrup The error states that you need to check your Twitch stream key or login with twitch. If that doesn't help you may want to change server to different one (the best tool to pick a server I suggest is: https://r1ch.net/projects/twitchtest)
@lament blade Please do not ask in multiple channels.
I did and it's right but the server keeps switching to rtmp://a.rtmp.youtube.com/live2
I provided you with a screenshot from the last log you provided in #helpdesk-selive @lament blade
@random stirrup Streamelements on top of OBS -> Logout -> login
@zenith widget First i'm sorry.
Can any1 help me figure out the problem
Can anyone edit their stream title through OBS live? I just reinstalled it and I cannot type in the chat box to update stream title
https://puu.sh/G6YaL/513da00f93.png
@lament pulsar 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
ok thanks
Hi has anyone any experience with the total sub count reading 0? Any fixes?
btw the issue isnt having 0 subs lol..
Hey! I've recently got a name change and need to link my chat stats to my new name. I've done all the steps except the last, my old name was d0mTwitch and my new one is: DomsVN . Could you guys help me out? < 3
Hello. Is there any way to generate a txt or excel file with all the data on the leaderboard tab?
@safe crater For the most of the cases relogin to SE website solves this issue. If not, staff can look into that. Please have in mind that this refresh is not immediate after you relogin.
@grand swan I have forwarded your issue. It should be fixed soon
@lethal tide The easiest way is to select leaderboard and paste it into Excel. There's no automated way to get this data.
@untold crest okay, thank you!
issues with streamelements alert box either not playing alerts on screen, or no-audio alerts at times? i noticed sometimes it works then suddenly doesnt not alert anymore midstream. i click a bunch of buttons (refresh overlay, pause, skip, etc) then replay it and sometimes itll work again (alert appears on screen and/or has audio). occurs on sub/donation typically.
furthermore, 1 viewer hosts do not show up on screen or in the events/activities.
any ideas?
Hey. How do you get Alerts to work after adding the URL to browser source? And also is there a way to test it before going on stream?
Hey, just to be sure, are there issues of the Custom Chatbot Name I need to be aware of?
@late loom 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.
@late loom and the other issue - I never seen something like that.
@toxic harness https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8LVRd2X4HvU
@lament blade 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
So, I asked a while ago about people being able to spam emotes in my channel, I have the thing disabled which stops them in the bot menu on the SE dashboard. Someone asked me to paste the message they got when they were timed out and I've found it, so it's "streamelements timed out jayson2510 for 30 seconds."
@toxic harness there's small difference. Instead of clicking "widgets" in top menu you click "+" button in the left bottom corner
Yesterday I asked about ${game} not being updated - It sure does change but it does not update in the chat command.
@robust gyro please check, if you have some of the filters enabled here https://streamelements.com/dashboard/bot-spam-filters
Bot usually provides a reason of timeout, you may also have a command that has a reply /timeout ${sender} 30
What does that mean?
How do I make a command which responds to channel point redemptions? Like I want to make a redemption and I want the bot to message a bunch of emotes in chat after someone has redeemed it
@wispy epoch Unfortunately I have no clue about that. Maybe somebody with better knowledge will jump in โค๏ธ
Please help I have no idea about making custom commands
Guys every time I see this message in chat
"StreamElements: Response message"
How can I fix that?
@robust gyro Check if you have any command here with timeout as response: https://streamelements.com/dashboard/bot-commands/custom-commands
If not I think you may want to make bot rejoin your channel
Please help I have no idea about making custom commands
login in streamelements dashboard, and follow this https://streamelements.com/dashboard/bot-commands/custom-commands
Guys every time I see this message in chat
"StreamElements: Response message"
How can I fix that?
It's possible to fix that?
Thank
@whole dock and about your issue I think you have a command which has a Response message set as response message ๐
@untold crest No I don't think I have any there
@whole dock and about your issue I think you have a command which has a
Response messageset as response message ๐
Let me check
There are no custom command with that response
@wispy epoch it might take 60 seconds or more to update the Game info
Does it happen in a particular scenario?
@prisma relic It has been like a week already
and the ${game} isn't working?
I posted 4:25 and now 4:39, still same
We can update ${game} with commands but it just shows only in this one command
Yeah I watched that vid. Still canโt get the alerts to work
${channel}'s Title is: ${title} | Game is: ${game}
i'm check it @wispy epoch
Do you think that we need to remove bot and join bot back? ๐ค Because he had 14 days ban recently
@toxic harness what is the issue you have with them?
@grand swan It should be updated now.
I'd guess you guys are leaving it so someone can get back to me?
Maybe one of the staff or someone else who knows about emotes?
It was about emote spam?
If so then that's fine ๐
@wispy epoch yeah, I have the thing under spam filters switched off but they're still being timed out.
This guy tried to put a bunch of pride emotes in the chat and they were timed out
hang on a sec let me turn the command back on
Guys every time I see this message in chat
"StreamElements: Response message"
How can I fix that?
It happen every 20 minutes
@whole dock If it is every 20 minutes it seems like you may have a bot timer with that message
They're appearing as they should on my stream as well
Dont think they were timed out? Your message was not sent because it is identical to the previous one you sent, less than 30 seconds ago.
@whole dock If it is every 20 minutes it seems like you may have a bot timer with that message
This is a fun fact
I don't have any command that response every 20 minutes
But not a command, bot timer
Yeah I think that's Twitch, I don't have control over that one.
@whole dock https://streamelements.com/dashboard/bot-timers
๐ Looks fine for me tbh, @robust gyro
@wispy epoch Yeah it appears to be now, thanks again for testing dude
Huh. It is getting more and more strange every minute. I hope we will find that voodoo behind this. Can you DM me Editor invitation link, so I can take a look inside your config?
@whole dock โคด๏ธ
@wispy epoch try this; and see if you are having the same problem:
setting the game here works for the ${game} command
but using !setgame in chat does not work
@whole dock can you DM me channel name only?
I will check what I can do with that
Thank you
@prisma relic Yes, ${game} is now updated to PUBG as it should be, so I guess !setgame is broken or?
there might be a bug with that with my testing. did you change that with the OBS.Live settings?
I can change it there as well but not the !setgame command
No, I have access to streamer's Twitch dashboard
I saved the stream info, then ${game} in chat got updated but otherwise it will not update via !setgame
I heard that in example, streamer was playing Dota 2, stream said that it's categorised in Dota 2 but the streamer was listed in Just Chatting category instead Dota 2 so I guess it's just Twitch's end ๐ค
@late loom and the other issue - I never seen something like that.
@untold crest are you referring to the alerts breaking midway? doh.
regarding supportai's response, it mentioned it shows all hosts with 1+ viewer. these are viewers giving me 1viewer hosts, so it should show up on activity feed and thus play on screen though, right?
i checked with twitch dashboard for events, only 1 1-viewer host appeared despite having several throughout the stream.
Hi there everyone, I was searching everywhere on the Internet but couldn't find a concrete answer for this.
I'm loving streamelements but there's just one thing that I cannot figure out, how could I set the chatbot timers to send a message every "x" minutes?
I would like to send all my messages one after the other instead of having to set it up independently for each message, that causes the bot to do a monologue at times and it's a bit annoying..
Thanks in advance!
correct @wispy epoch. that would be on the Twitch side. .... but our ${game} variable is on us ๐
@drowsy forum You can set a timer and set each desired response like a queue. Once first one is triggered it goes to the next one in the "list" and so on.
guys i need some help. I tried doing it myself but I can't do it
How do i make a command that triggers after a channel redemption
Twitch channel points @finite echo ?
There is no integration with Twitch points (no bot can do that) ... yet
Aww that sucks
@ionic kelp that's what I want to do! But I cannot figure it out, is it by adding multiple response messages to the same timer? I only thought of that now lol
Yes, that is what I currently have and the bot does a monologue sometimes if not enough people chat in the meantime, how do I set it up as a queue? Like you said?
hi there^^ is there a problem atm with twitch authorization on SE? i cannot login with my twitch account ๐ฆ
you could go a custom widget route and have a '!socials' command that spams them all in chat
@weak charm Please logout of StreamElements at https://streamelements.com/logout and then login again to your account (Twitch/Youtube/Facebook/Mixer)
@drowsy forum
First message fires and then once the requirements are met next one goes and so on.
Wicked! Will test it now! Thank you so much
How is it possible to set the default pic for panelpic and background pic on my tippingpage?
that didnt work^^ when i try to authorize twitch it says invalid csrf token...

@naive parrot You can set it here: https://streamelements.com/dashboard/tipping-settings

@naive parrot You have buttons to replace panel and background images:
Does anyone know how I could do a Store item that gives away a certain amount of loyalty points? Doing a scavenger hunt and going to add a secret code that can be used only once... Once used, the user gets X loyalty points and it can't be redeemed again.
I know how to set it so that it's only one use but can't figure out how to get it to add the points to the user.
@untold crest yes but where can I reset the pics to default?
Unfortunately there is no "reset", you may upload it by yourself:
From my own channel background - i found URL in the webpage code ๐

How to change bank account number on SE.Pay?
Hi! Streamelements' overlays don't work on my stream, how do I activate them?
@dense nexus Please contact us via email for support with SE.Pay. You can use our contact form here: https://streamelements.com/contact Thank you
@celest pier .... are other overlays working? i'm sorry. i just need more information to help. Are they working in the editor? do they work in OBS?

Anyone not have Hosting alerts popup?
@ember ruin 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.
Thanks
@ember ruin there is also the issue of Twitch itself not showing the host in your activity feed (they are aware of the issue), despite the item showing up in your channel chat (not from the streamelements bot - it's just a notification from twitch)
Thanks @hallow vault
Hey, I would like to know where I can change the IBAN in SE.pay. Thank you for your cooperation.
So just to clarify... Offline hosts and 0 viewer hosts don't trigger alerts?
@gaunt spade no
correct @gaunt spade
@weak summit Please contact us via email for support with SE.Pay. You can use our contact form here: https://streamelements.com/contact Thank you
I believe I had some hosts Sunday night that had at least 1 viewer but no alert triggered. What would the reason for that be?
hi so im streaming right now and my stream is dropping a few frames, but it hasnt done this the last times ive streamed
@gaunt spade 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.
@icy lynx 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.
The host did show on my event list. Just no alert (I think)
