my overlays are currently just displaying a black screen, and my alerts arent working either.
Set a Twitch chat message trigger for that.
Yo I got a question
If Iβm a mod in a chat can I add a timer for that dude that made me mod
Or does he have to do it himself
Hello & thanks for your help in advance! When creating overlays, is there a way to copy one layer to other overlays? ie - the alert box. It looks as though every time I bring an alert box over to a new scene I have to add all the donation/bit variants all over again. Am I missing something?
@ionic kelp
@light bone click the 2 boxes above the layers list to dupe to another overlay.
@lament blade To my knowledge they have to.
Thanks @ionic kelp. That was legit gonna be a deal breaker for me. Glad you helped!
I want to delete my steam elements account to just use steamlabs but it says invalid username when I try to close the account
Hi, Not sure whether to post here or in dev-api channel, but does anyone know how do get a command to work for non-subs but then not work for subs? π€ Thanks.
https://gyazo.com/592512c2f038b4439d12919bd7dfc84f @peak storm It's called "User Level" In the command editing panel
yeh but i want the reverse. I want it to NOT work for subs
Hi helpdesk twitch fam :)! Just trying to figure out how to test my alertbox before I stream π thanks!
@balmy arrow 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
AWESOME THANK YOU SO MUCH AND FOR THE SUPER QUICK REPLY!!!:)
Is there a way to setup !soundalerts outside of the loyalty system with StreamElements?
I'm trying to create a mod only sound alert to audibly ping me if my stream goes down, if my mic is muted, etc.
@nova gust Technically you can if you have FFZ installed/used in OBS chat dock. There's an option for chat sounds.
Otherwise not really.
can anyone help me add the overlays i downloaded to obs
@crude anvil To add your overlays to OBS, add a new browser source in your scene. Paste your overlay URL in the browser source properties, set the dimensions to 1920x1080 (unless you changed them on the website), and β βShutdown source when not visibleβ https://youtu.be/KDvLynUqXI4
@ionic kelp I don't have that installed, but I'll have a look into it! Thanks.
In the stream tab of OBS make sure you have your account connected instead of streamkey. Choose the FFZ addon below it.
Then choose the βοΈ for chat settings in the dock and FFZ control panel. Search sound up top.
And stream tab I mean in settings.
Hmmm, I'm not seeing FFZ in my chat settings
I've activated it in the stream tab
But can't see it anywhere...
Clcik view > docks > chat
Yea, done that, still no joy. Tried installing the add-on for Google Chrome to make sure it's not just OBS Chat and I'm not seeing FFZ settings in my chat window there either..
BTTV is there, but not FFZ
Open OBS settings and screenshot the stream tab.
Now screenshot the main window.
Main window? Of chat or the general tab?
Main window.
Non-mod settings. That's why.
WOW, I would of never guessed that. Thank you very much!
So I've typed in Sound and the only two results are "General" and "Compressor"
I'm not seeing anything for sound alert playback
@ionic kelp Cool! Is that the The "FrankerFaceZ Add-On Pack - Core" add on?
Yup
Damn, the only way to use that add on to trigger sound alerts is to trigger them every time you're mentioned. Which happens pretty often :/
Seems like a super useful feature for using in other channels though, so that's pretty great!
Gimme a sec to ask someone. Might be able to set it to something more specific.
Cool, thank you.
how do i get my discord audio on my stream
hey @ionic kelp
how do i invite the bot to my twitch channel
do i have to go live for it to join?

@torn slate go to our dashboard and on tbe right side click on join channel
thank you
@nova gust This might actually work better #widget-share message
@ionic kelp Thank you very much! I'll check that out just now
having trouble with stream elemts relaying the live stream real choppy and dropping frames
@spare gale For the best OBS support, please join their Official Discord @ discord.gg/obsproject
Ok so im trying to help my friend with his account but my streamelements is logged into my twitch how can i unlink it from my account
cant click link
@spare gale 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.
@worn valve Do you have your friends twitch account credentials? I hope you dont
@zenith widget would this cause obs to get choppy even though it isnt streaming?
There is some rendering lag as well so look at the analyzer
Towards then end of a stream all my overlays on stream/sources suddenly vanished and now i can finhd them in Obs
Click on either "Profile" or "Scene Collection" on top of OBS and see if you've accidentally switched to a different profile or scene collection
nah
@serene torrent For the best OBS support, please join their Official Discord @ discord.gg/obsproject
But when i try to add a new source it gives me the option to add it to those previous sources
is there an in game chat overlay for obs.live?
No.
If you have 1 monitor and/or would like the chat overlay on screen, please look at the link below.
Please note this is not a plugin for OBS and not maintained by SE.
https://github.com/baffler/Transparent-Twitch-Chat-Overlay
Instructions are in the readme. Can't help beyond that.
thansk!
I have some overlays that im trying to make work. The original scene on the obs app projects the game but doesn't show the overlay. When I activate the overlay, it stays as a black screen but shows the overlay. I'm not to sure how to fix it so if one of you can help me with this, that would be great. I'm currently streaming right now on twitch to test the overlays out so if that will help you help me, ill send the link.
I'm looking for a friend who wants to do a follower-goal but i'm struggling with the widgets...
i tried this:
Add Widget -> Labels -> Followers -> Total & All Time -> Total Followers - And the Text he wants is "{count} / 200". I tried it at my dashboard (got 438 Follower) and the Text displayed is "438 / 200" <- thats correct.
Now i'm trying it with Add Widget -> Labels -> Followers -> Goals -> Follower Goal. Looks quite better, but the Text displayed then is 378 / 200 instead of 438 / 200
Whyever the Label "Follower Goal" don't recognize my Follower-Count correctly.
But why?
@opal vigil OBS -> settings -> advanced -> scroll down -> enable/disable hardware accel. (This does not apply for OBS on Mac)
https://i.imgur.com/ggMe9ZE.png
@quiet ermine To reset goals:
- from the overlay editor -> session data on top right (monitor symbol) -> goals tab -> reset progress of desired goal
- from the dashboard -> activity feed on the left -> widget data on the right -> goals tab -> reset progress of desired goal
Note: Goal widgets(progress) only counts up and doesn't go down automatically, if you loose followers/subs
hi guys, can i overlay my twitch even though i stream direct from ps4?
@lethal kite Consoles do not have native support for overlays. You would need a capture card, PS4 remote play or Xbox companion app 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
I'm having a problem with one of my chat variables: ${game} It has been stuck on "destiny 2" (with a lowercase) - However, I can still use the !setgame command which updates the current game. Unfortunately, the variable will always return "destiny 2" when I run the !game command.
Well even its a bot i have to say thank you, since that was the important information i needed ^^
@dense quartz Go to our dashboard -> part the bot from the right side -> logout from our dashboard -> login -> join bot -> try variable again
would someone be able to update my chat stats please. Old username - BobbyBoo99 new username - notbobbyboo
thanks 
done
hey my points and subs are both listing as no data
is there any way to fix that?
my old username is sk13rdude and new one is frsqy
@gray mountain Please logout of StreamElements at https://streamelements.com/logout and then login again to your account (Twitch/Youtube/Facebook/Mixer)
the statistics still havent updated
someone from staff will do that shorty, but you also needed to log in with the new name, so that's why i posted that bot response π
ah ok ty
@gray mountain Go to the dashboard -> right side -> part channel -> join channel (https://streamelements.com/dashboard)
also, do that too π
just to make sure the bot is working properly under your new channel name
ok I did that
@worthy ermine 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.
i made a custom webm alert for my webcam but it wont update on each alert. its just plays a random alert and not the video i uploaded for my alert. it only works on my follow alert but if i try to add the same video alert for subs it just plays default stuff.
you might want to check all the variations for the sub alerts then
ill look into it
ok I did the part channel join channel, should I uninstall/reinstall streamelements or something?
no, just wait for the staff to fix the stats and that should be enough
ok cool
hello! just wanted to ask some help, been a few days and i'm trying to fix my alerts. i uploaded a custom alert that looks better with the text over image thing, but the name doesn't show up. any tips?
go to advanced text settings and set the top margin to 50, then work from there
it's sometimes to high up and outside of the alertbox
ok cool
@gray mountain stats should work now
still hasn't updated for some reason
when did you join StreamElements?
i see you using streamlabs alerts though
they are our competitors, those systems don't work together
huh ok
it's just because of streamlabs obs
I see
I'll try to figure it out then
ty
@dense quartz Go to our dashboard -> part the bot from the right side -> logout from our dashboard -> login -> join bot -> try variable again
@zenith widget - I tried that prior to my post, but I'll try it again
does anybody know how enter a command variable the reads a random line from a local text file?
Our bot is not able to read locally stored files.
ok just checking
is there a patebin type site you would recommend for simple file hosting?
Hello ! Just connect to the StreamElements to give it a try, and I notice I have absolutely no data. Is SE not retroactive?
That tracks your monthly gain
If you are looking for your total values, go to Activity feed on the left -> widget data on the right
then totals tab
Oh ok, thanks. But I still don't understand why it's 0 everywhere for this month. The tracking is not retroactive ? (I connected my Twitch account yesterday to SE, for info)
Have you streamed since yesterday?
Mmmmmh, yesterday night, yeah. But I don't remember if I sign in to SE before or after that stream ^^'. I need to stream at least one time, that's it?
We start tracking that monthly data from the moment you sign up with us
Aaah, ok
if its missing then most likely after the stream you've signed up
Thanks. So that's why I don't have the "last follower" information for the overlay too?
ye
(It means I need to wait a new follower/sub/cheer to show the appropriate widget?)
what's the variable for $targetusername ?
${user} or ${touser}
It is touser. elegant!
they are the same, but ok
is it possible to link my alerts from streamelements to streamlabsobs?
You can have our overlay in there but note this.
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.
ok thanks.
How do I sign out of my twitch on grounnd control
Delete your jwt token in settings.
Thanks ddad
Is there a way to remove the StreamElements Live Support button that OBS.Live adds?
It messes with my layout just enough that it adds scroll bars to my sources and scenes v_v
Sorry, it can't be removed, its part of the plugin in case someone needs help with it and they can use it to contact us directly instead of going straight to the OBS Discord, where they will inevitably send them here.(basically prevent a wild goose chase)
Heck, thanks man.
Kann mir wer helfen
#π©πͺοΈ±deutsch
hola
Hi. my subs are listing as no data.I did not change my nickname to twitch. twitch.tv creator415
Where exactly are they listed as no data? also please remove the link
StreamElements Leaderboards
If you've recently installed the extension, it will take up to 30 days for it to populate with subs
as people need to resub in order to show up
the extension pulls data from the chat directly
@zenith widget do you remember our discussion about changing my YouTube name from ViperIXC to ImaSnakySnake?
How do I get alerts when someone has followed me etc?
@sharp dagger To add your overlays to OBS, add a new browser source in your scene. Paste your overlay URL in the browser source properties, set the dimensions to 1920x1080 (unless you changed them on the website), and β βShutdown source when not visibleβ https://youtu.be/KDvLynUqXI4
@lament blade yes
You asked only for your youtube at the time
If you've renamed your twitch
simply log out from our dashboard and login again
the renames with Twitch are automatic
no i wanted the name of my youtube channel changed
but the tipping link on twitch was changed
only the link
from ImaSnakySnake/tip or whatever it is
to ImaSnakySnake_7142
Because you only mentioned your Youtube account, the devs changed the taken name to some other number seeing as its your own account
in the request you only asked for Youtube, but didn't specify that you also had a Twitch I believe
with the same name
Oh.. ok
I can ask them to swap them, so that twitch is without numbers and the YT is with numbers
anyway we can reverse that.. and change the link to something specific?
like ImaSnakySnake_Twitch
It might be better to not have it have anything on the back
ok, thats fine
if you want your YT link can be ImaSnakySnakeYT
Ok - will reply to the ticket when i make the task
TYSM
is there a widget that does like a stream ending credits roll?
Hello, what is the best camera i should buy for my stream?
I heart Logitech C922 Pro is the best and the cheapest for the best , should I get it or something else?
I've been reading the C930e might be a better choice
low-light response is a problem for anything under $600 seems like
I actually want something around 60-100$
c920
but I want to mention something - this channel is not hardware support or tips
#general-chat please
yes, If I can get one of them to do what I want then I'm done with Streamlabs entirely π
well check them out and see what fits your needs
Thanks! Is there a primer somewhere on how these widgets are put together in the first place?
the last 2 i linked are custom widgets - you can find how to make your own, but you need coding knowledge, in the #dev-chat channel description
How do you add a dono goal/sub goal overlay onto your stream?
@weak delta thanks g
Quick question: How can you rename the streamelements bot? I've looked at several guides online, including the one on the streamelements blog, but it all seems to be outdated.
@ripe sedge 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.
Hello, could you turn on chatbot name change function in GroundControl for my channel? its drWHYsql
Tag you soon @neon nexus
There is actually a way to re-enable in in groundcontrol?
Indeed, if you prefer it that way.
thanks! will the function appear then? How will I know?
When I tag you next, reboot Ground Control and voila!
ok!
@neon nexus reboot!
Can you enable it for ThatJamesGuy01 please? I'm the mod who manages his bot and he asked me to get it sorted for him.
Is done @ripe sedge have him reboot ground control.
Thanks bud.
Hello there, I'm having difficulty getting the chatbox on my stream to work. Its working fine on the stream elements website, but not working at all on obs studio
But I can only rename bot to match my channel name, right?
I can't create a brand new name

@neon nexus you need to make a channel for your custom bot
Well the bots advice, unless I'm supposed to have that off
You mean like a whole twitch channel?
Wait, did you work out how to do it @neon nexus
@neon nexus 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
This is the way you can make it
@west crag do you want to have a chat in OBS.Live or on overlay?
@untold crest I don't use obs live, I use studio.... But the chat
Thanks a lot - I can't use OBS live right now but I will try it in future when I have a faster interenet connection
OBS.Live doesn't need faster connection than regular OBS. It is just to display SE related data within single window
@untold crest Are you able to help me at all?
The thing I could think about is to dock chat window in OBS
I am looking for popout url as I forgot it
https://www.twitch.tv/popout/channelName/chat
is there a way i can put all my widgets into one link even though some of my widgets we're made by others? want to have the least amount of CPU being used by a browser source
It's more complicated... I am a moderator, the streamer is my boyfriend, he uses two computers, one for streaming and one for producing music. Computer used for streaming has WIndows 7 and we cannot change that - so we can't use the latest OBS version. I can do it on my computer. But when I launch OBS live, the stream is not working fine - we have stops, lags, it looks like my OBS live uses too much internet transfer... That is why I decided to use Ground Control, to check out if it helps
Hi, Is there a variable I can use in a custom command that would give the same time as !followage does? π€
I orgot to mention thai in older OBS versions you can't change the chatbot name
forgot*
@karmic agate Sure. You can put almost as many widgets into browser source as you want to.
@peak storm I think this one can give you time only${customapi https://decapi.me/twitch/followage/${channel}/${user}}
@untold crest but the others that i didnt make can i add them to the ones i did make so each scene has one link?
like merging all the links together
How do I set up custom commands on mobile
Open up the StreamElements website on Chrome from your phone and edit the commands here: https://streamelements.com/dashboard/bot-commands/default-commands
You can go to scene, click a widget and click "copy" then you will be able to select target overlay, so you can copy widgets between scenes with ease:
@karmic agate ‴οΈ
@untold crest Thanks a lot π
@untold crest thank you so much
how do i set my title name for the stream and the category in obs stream elements
@dusty plume 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
For category !setgame
Any tech wizards around? :)
Audio issue:
Changed the output in Windows to a different output but the game still forces the audio to the main output (game has no options for this)
Works fine for most apps but a few games still play the audio to the main output, even when changed in Windows.
Hey
I want to do a giveaway
How can i setting taht only follower can enter the giveaway ?
@lavish knot You cannot limit it to followers only (as people can unfollow after that), but you can set your chat to followers only mode and after winner is drawn you can check if that user is a follower
It is a level you can set for some users. It is not reflected in Twitch.
hey having an issue with my streamelemnts not being able to capture games using the game capture option. i have tried the things of disabling windows game mode etc but to no avail anyone got any tips or knowledge on this
dunno where exactly to ask for that but whenever i try to activate the chatalert stuff with the SE-Bot it doesn't save it and auto-deactivates it.
@loud sedge Make sure bot is in chat.
sure he is
it deactivates the command in the module page on streamlabs.com
like instantly after i try to customize the sub msg

hi, im having issues with my host alert. It doesnt seem to pop up when im hosted. When i "emulate" a host in streamelements it works fine. I currently run obs.live without ground control. the minimum viewer amount is set to "0". I know someone else with the same issue using SE, any workaround? π thanks
@inner valve 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.
Ok thanks, i just wondered as the widget said set to "0" to show all alerts. And since the emulation worked i thought something was wrong. thanks for the help tho π
Media Request Question. I just started using this option. When I change scenes to just a basic scene (End Scene) while the Media request is in the "Show on Screen" mode, it stops playing the music. If I switch to "Stop Showing on Stream" mode, the sound returns. Does this feature only work with an active widget on the screen? Any time I switch off of my In Game scene, I have to manually toggle the "Display on Stream?"
Note: I am using a dedicated streaming pc.
Would there be a donation goal widget?
@scenic cedar But choose tips #helpdesk-twitch message

Oh i didnt see that, thank you!
Is something going on with Chat Commands? none of mine seem to be working.
@sly girder Go to the dashboard -> right side -> part channel -> join channel (https://streamelements.com/dashboard)
Have you added as moderator?
So I heard you can open an overlay in a browser window for audible notifications but when I do it's just a white screen with no sounds. Seems like it does nothing
either Chrome or Firefox, same
emulated events are showing just fine in OBS though
@nimble dune Have done all that, made sure moderator is set. Just not posting.
@sly girder Are you using custom bot name?
Yes
@sly girder 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

Hello everyone.
I'm searching for a (i think) simple way, to play 2 mp3s on my stream-intro and want to show the songname (it should change, if the mp3 changes). Is there a player that writes the songtext into a *.txt so read it with a text-source?
@torn wind Have you changed your twitch username?
Thanks
@quiet ermine Nope. Can't do local files.
what do i need to do
You'd have to add as local displayed file.
Can you provide to staffs @ionic kelp Thanks π
For the best OBS support, please join their Official Discord @ discord.gg/obsproject
Already done.

yeah i already added them as media source, so i can play them, but the change of the song has to be manual... i did it now by creating 2 groups, songname and song in each and activate / deactivate them in the source list.
Thanks for the information ^^
Hi everyone. Is ther somebody who is godlike withe the custom commands and maybe knows a workaround for the Addpoints command, for a stealing/robbery command?

Just need to do digging.

ok ty again
@lament blade Don't think it's possible with what you want. You might be able to Al's in #dev-chat about something that way. Otherwise you'd need someone with editor access to your account.
im new to all this so setting up from the start i done thw whole wizard setup
@charred wyvern i used a website for mine that i liked it made the panels perfect how i wanted them
I did it. Thanks.
Ok np
I'm moving my chatbot commands over to StreamElements but having a hard time with the shoutout, are there variables that can display a target's channel URL and/or last game played?
@subtle crypt Due to the way laptops are designed, your system must be configured to run OBS on a specific GPU, depending on the type of capture you are trying to do.
For Game Capture and Window Capture (recommended), your system must be configured to run OBS on your laptopβs high performance GPU (default); for Display Capture, your system must be configured to run OBS on your laptopβs power saving GPU (iGPU).
If you are running Windows 10 1903 or newer, use this guide for instructions on how to configure your system: https://github.com/obsproject/obs-studio/wiki/Laptop-GPU-Selection-Windows-10
For instructions on configuring an older version of Windows (you should consider upgrading), use this guide: https://obsproject.com/wiki/Laptop-Troubleshooting
Is there anyone to reward loyalty points to active chatters similar to how the Ankbot (Streamlabs Chatbot) has +active ?
is there a way to edit the song request !volume command? I would like it to be possible to change the volume only with the + and - commands.
I don't know if my doubt was clear, but thanks anyway
@wary halo I know loyalty exists, and I know you can do !addpoints individually or to all, but is there a way to do similar for active chatters say in last 15 minutes?
no, just everyone in the stream will get the usual x amount per 10 minutes
One more Question is there away the customize the character cap on tts ? cant find it
hi, there is anyway to chage the bot anwsere bc i change some commands to spanish, and the bot says the old ones for example
this is the duel message
i change "!accept" to "acepto" and "!deny" to "!declino"
i want to show that new comands on the answers
thank u so much!
How to get overlay to streamlabs?
@opal kraken To add your overlays to OBS, add a new browser source in your scene. Paste your overlay URL in the browser source properties, set the dimensions to 1920x1080 (unless you changed them on the website), and β βShutdown source when not visibleβ https://youtu.be/KDvLynUqXI4
In the last few weeks, I have had several reports of OBS "disconnected from server" during my livestreams to Twitch. On my OBS live dashboard, it says the stream is still connected and running fine. However, my viewers lose the stream for a minute and then it just automatically reconnects. My OBS is fully updated. I have no indication that the stream has "crashed" except for what my chat says and a PC notification that comes up on my dashboard after the fact saying that OBS disconnected and reconnected to the server at a particular time. My internet is not going out. I'm not sure if this is a Twitch server issue, or an issue with OBS, but the frequency of this is becoming a problem. Thank you for your time!
@torn cedar For the best OBS support, please join their Official Discord @ discord.gg/obsproject
That's something they'd be able to troubleshoot better.
@nimble dune I have issue
Why currency not changed in Activity Tab (in 2 screenshot and 3)
Hallo bei mir werden keine Hosts angezeigt und die Alerts dafΓΌr kommen auch nicht
who can help me?
Auch wenn sie bei einem anderen Bot Registriert werden
#π©πͺοΈ±deutsch << @bright sphinx
Ah Shit Sorry XD
@sullen pecan If you changed your name on Twitch please follow these steps:
πΉ Visit https://streamelements.com/logout and then log in again with by connecting with Twitch.
πΉ 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.
πΉ Post your old and your new name here so that we can update your channel's chatstats tracking (must be done by staff).
ok
the only thing I changed that I remember is capital letters.. before I think was funchaltv and I changed to FunchalTV
done the steps
okay, i'll send it to staff anyway (the names)
thanks
Alerts question for OBS.Live/Streamelements/Twitch - If I have my alerts setup, and they test out fine, but they don't propagate in my live stream, assuming the activity list is updating on twitch (i.e. not a twitch problem) what other things should I look at to 'reset' the alerts and get them functioning?
@scenic shard OBS -> settings -> advanced -> scroll down -> enable/disable hardware accel. (This does not apply for OBS on Mac)

disable that
10-4 thanks Ruben
is it possible to add up my stats on this page? https://stats.streamelements.com/c/m0xyy
i have both mvnkey and monkey0w
(last time i asked if i could do it but i think it didnt load or something)
Hi, how do I change the badge images for the streamelements leader board to custom images?
Hi, anyone knows why does the tip message wrap around on the same line?
Width/height settings for secondary text should accommodate multiple lines instead of the text overlapping π€
Hey guys wondering why i cant update my stream title nor game within obs live?
@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
I am trying to test out a mod that interacts with Twitch and StreamElements ... how do I trigger a test follow event?
@brisk coyote 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
thank you
Hi, I would like to know if there is a way to use a custom command for the !uptime instead of the default command?
hey, I'd like to know why my commands from streamelements stop working when I launch the StreamElements OBS.live app? They work perfectly once it's closed. 
@raven lichen You using custom bot name?
Streamelements on top of OBS -> Logout -> login
i am trying to put my camera on to obs live and i am in video capture and it is not bringing up the device name of the camera
if you don't you mind my asking, why this was happening? I've been using the same setup, bots etc. for over 6 months now but this issue has only been happening the past 3/4 weeks.
There were some changes done recently that needed you to relog.
@white gust For the best OBS support, please join their Official Discord @ discord.gg/obsproject
ooooh....thank you for the help 
this is what i have on my screen
Go to the server the bot linked.

Hey guys. Is there anyway of removing the pepe emote (and variations of it) from StreamElements? I can't seem to be able to remove it and the pepe emote always pops up when someone is redeeming their points in my Stream store.
@scenic shard OBS -> settings -> advanced -> scroll down -> enable/disable hardware accel. (This does not apply for OBS on Mac)
https://i.imgur.com/ggMe9ZE.png
I've tried this and my alerts still aren't loading regularly. They only work after I run a test. Even then the audio files don't play sometimes... any other things I can look into?
sorry my quoting of the response to my earlier post didn't format correctly
In chat
@median hollow with kappagen?
@scarlet tiger
@median hollow try !pepes disable
I can't seen to ban the pepe word and variations of it in StreamElements or within Twitch itself
Doesn't work!
@median hollow try
!pepes disable
@scarlet tiger
You must have enabled default command !pepes
Any idea where?
@void sapphire Please follow our community rules:
- No advertisement or stream promotion
- Respect ALL server members
- No NSFW/NSFL
Thank you
@median hollow you must !pepes disable in chat
Hang on then
Would it be a big deal for your programmers to add an option "choose a thumbnail from video frames" for a video stream perk? My stream perks have a few empty frames at the beginning so it looks like they're empty
Don't work! @scarlet tiger
@median hollow can you dm me invite link with editor access?
Follow these steps to grant managers/moderators access to your dashboard:
- Click on your Channel Name at the top of the dashboard and select Settings
- Create a new invite at one of three access levels (Bot Supervisor, Editor, Full Control)
- Send this invite to a mod/manager to give them access to your dashboard. The link is one-time-use and expires after 72 hours if not accepted

Hi, im a mod for a friends stream and the bots aren't working. is there a way to reset thme
so i can pass on the message
@feral elm Go to the dashboard -> right side -> part channel -> join channel (https://streamelements.com/dashboard)

oki thanks
Hi everyone, I have someone who keeps unfollowing and re-following to get their name to pop up in alerts and on the overlay. They are banned from my channel. Any way to block them from being recognized in StreamElements alerts?
@median hollow done

Having an issue changing my bot name to my streamer name it wont send the response may soemone come to my channel to help me out here please?
I just recently started using streamelements, its not coming up with subs on my leaderboard or last person to sub is there a way to update it?
It would be also very helpful if there wa a possibilty to choose a stream perk thumbnail from a few proposed variants
@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

Can i link two accounts from the same service in Streamelements, like two Twitch accounts?
my overlays arent working either

Hey guys - been trying to get my money from SE Pay for 2-3 weeks from here and support...keep getting no response
Can anyone who is not a bot help me please? π
You submitted a ticket @frosty belfry ?
SE.Pay can only be handled via support tickets.
@frosty belfry Unfortunately we are unable to provide support for that here due to privacy reasons.
Only the tickets.
@potent mica 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.
you said you are using slobs
nothing we can do if kappagen doesn't work on there
they block our stuff sometimes
im having problems with my audio still
kappagen works on slobs
i changed my username
now ist not working
idk what to do
Switch to OBS. We can't help you with it in SLOBS.
I just recently started using streamelements, its not coming up with subs on my leaderboard or last person to sub is there a way to update it?
i changed my username
@potent mica you still haven't given your old and new name
how do i get kappagen to work after changiung my username

you wnat both names? krissasaur/krissatiel

Hello streamelements will not apply to my channel due to it saying its already claimed and i completely removed nightbot how do i fix this?

im confused
hey, i want to know why i cant find my twitch channel on the search area

?wdym
oh sorry i missed that part @wary halo
@lament blade It's a known issue on twitch's side.
soo theres nothing i can do about it
i got a bit worried cause my friends kept telling me i got banned π«
If you can still be reached then there's nothing to worry about.

how do you add watchtime
@lilac jackal 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 canβt 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.
I just recently started using streamelements, its not coming up with subs on my leaderboard or last person to sub is there a way to update it?
how do i add my own emojii to a chat command?
Hey guys. My StreamElements Leaderboard is all messed up with no one showing up as having points yet when I manually search for the user it shows up. Any ideas?
or sorry how do i put my twitch emote into my chat commands?
gift the bot a sub or use the custom bot name function and give it your own name
and then just type in the name of the emote in the command response
i dont have obs my current comp. doesnt support it. is the custom bot name only on obs correct?
ok so not happening until i upgrade p.c.
How do I do overlays
thanks
@fading parrot To add your overlays to OBS, add a new browser source in your scene. Paste your overlay URL in the browser source properties, set the dimensions to 1920x1080 (unless you changed them on the website), and β βShutdown source when not visibleβ https://youtu.be/KDvLynUqXI4
I am streaming on an Xbox
@fading parrot Consoles do not have native support for overlays. You would need a capture card, PS4 remote play or Xbox companion app 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
I have someone who keeps unfollowing and re-following to get their name to pop up in alerts and on the overlay. They are banned from my channel. Any way to block them from being recognized in StreamElements alerts?
@wind pond https://streamelements.com/dashboard/tipping-settings Tipping settings and moderation options at the bottom.
Yes it doesn't make sense but that's how it "works".
Simply set to not show.
is there a way to set it for a specific user? im fine with everyone else
or do i add his name to the filtered words?
Add their name.
gotcha. Thank you!
how do i create custom raffle text for my stream
On my screen it is not showing my camera device and got FPS in RED and Video Format in RED as well
@deft moth how do I do that
@deft moth
hmm im not sure did u check if the webcam works
I only got the webcam today
is it connected to the motherboard or a usb hub?
open camera app and see if the camera even works
It is connected to the motherboard
Hi, I have the black screen problem on obs, I went through the whole article on how to fix it and still couldn't, can anyone please help me fix it
@deft moth webcam works
not sure
Anyways I have a question of my own. Is there a way to use either channel points or Loyalty points to activate TTS? If you cant do that, i think it would be a cool feature to add. Thanks 
Excuse me, the streamelements bot isn't responding to any of the commands. I'm a super moderator so I have the highest permissions. Tried disconnecting and reconnecting the bot. Tried muting and unmuting. Stream elements is a mod already
Anyone know why?
Can someone help please? I'm looking to set up a direct link so someone can subscribe to me on twitch using their Twitch Prime. I have a direct link to subscribe. I know there's a link for them to link their accounts. Neither of those is what I want. I know there's a way to make it directly use their twitch prime. I know my twitch name is in the link somewhere. I've seen this on others' twitch streams. Please help.
@tawdry bough https://subs.twitch.tv/channelname
that looks like the normal sub link though. That says nothing about prime in it. There's another one. I've seen it.
Hey! On my streamelements page i have not only me as an "owner" but also a buddys account. I don't want to have 2 owners i only want my account. How do i get rid of the buddys account here?
There is no easy way to unlink 2 owner-type accounts from each other. The only way is to make a closure request from here: https://streamelements.com/dashboard/account/security
WARNING: In submitting a closure request, all linked channels within the account will be deleted and you will lose all associated data. This includes overlays, custom commands, timers and past data (tips, subs, etc). You can still reconnect with the deleted account, but you are essentially starting fresh.
@rugged sorrel ^
Ok so basically i can do nothing without him loosing all his stuff?
Yes
Cool
I just setup my full streaming setup and found that streamelements introduced an unbearable amount of lag into the stream compared with just plain OBS or Streamlabs. I have screen shots of my settings
@mild shuttle your encoding bitrate is too low. Encoding bitrate isn't streaming bitrate.
my stream elements isnt showing people that have subbed, gifted or cheered, is there a way to update it or something?
@mild shuttle my bad you was right it is that bitrate it says streaming bitrate lol
@mild shuttle But turn look ahead on and try going from max quality a step down
alright I'll give it a shot
to just quality
hey there I was just wondering if there's been an uh. issue with server connectivity or something to that effect because i've been having jarring bit-rate jumps and drops despite cosistently reading on other platforms.
@rose fox 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.
my isp is registering fine though that's the issue
Turn "Dynamically change bitrate" off. I had it turned on and it introduced bitrate drops out of nowhere for me.
o: Where is that option :3c
Obs > advanced settings > network
make sure it's off
you are better of turning the bitrate down manually if you have to
Yeah I have it down pretty low so I'm shocked at it tryinna spike and then shit the bed
been an issue out of nowhere this past week
oh weird it's off, hm
what did you set the bitrate to? and what is your normal upload speed?
1000 currently when it was running smoothly at 1600 the week prior
tbh i figured in part it could be just my PC shitting the bed at this point given it's uuuuuuh on it's last legs but it was owrking a week ago so I don't know why that' dchange
did you do a twitch test?
Is it bitrate or is it just your cpu beeing at high usage?
I did do a twitch test, multiple, and it's registering as bitrate
huh? what do you mean "it's registering as bitrate"
the twitch test shows what your connection is to the servers
Hey so im setting up my alerts and i have the sound and animated video file on working but it doesnt show me a name when i test it
yeah like i've ran the twitch test, it'll say my bitrate is fine, whereas OBS on it's bitrate thing will say it's fine, then suddenly spike to 2k bitrate and drop down to 0 and stop
I usually have to restart my stream at that point
thats your connection to the servers, everything is in the post from the bot
can you show me the results from the twitch test
you can post it here
ok @rugged sorrel I did the steps and it made a slight improvement but still bad. Then I changed my framerate in game from 300 to 144 (my monitor refresh rate) and it seemed to help immensely. Still isn't ideal so I don't know what the issue is
Should I repost questions that hasn't been answered
the twitch test from the bot
@rose fox Use the Twitch Bandwidth Test to find the best Twitch server to stream to. Set Duration to Medium. You can uncheck any regions you're not near.
After the test completes, click the Share Result button to upload a screenshot, which can then be copied and pasted here.
Get Twitch Test from https://r1ch.net/projects/twitchtest
DO yall know how to make a name appear for my emulate test cause its not showing anything
check you have the {name} variable in the text message field and check all your variations
okay one sec cause i have done this but ill try again
yeah i did that and its not showing anything
do you have the text set to be in front of the image?
yes Text Over IMage is turned on
okay i found it i had to set it to column
dang thanks though
sorry running the test still, taking a hot second β€οΈ

Hello i need help, on my stream people can only donate through paypal so i wanted to download sepay to be able to use credit card and all sort of possible paymant methods. But it wont let me download it, help please
oh now i found out i have to have more than 100 followers
well that is bad for me
you got this man
i just started today and some people alreday wanted to donate me but when they found out it is only possible trough paypal they said no. Well guess cant start living through stream right away
I am already affiliate
my timers are not working. i have one set for every 5 chat lines every 10 minutes but they dont show. the only one that shows is my twitch prime timer thats set every 7 chat lines every 10 minutes
makes no sense and they all worked before
How i get a donation goal going up linked to my tiltify?
Are they enabled @prisma seal
That is showing on my stream that is
lil question
@lament blade go to add a new alert, check under Cahrity & Seasonal, and choose Tiltify, then connect your account
@prisma seal I can only assume you arnt getting the right amount of chat lines in X amount of time
Your lowest request is 5 lines per 10minutes which is twitch prime, which is showing, while everything else is not
@gaunt mist are you asking like how they fade in/out and appear?
yeah
As far as editing the default widget I do not believe you can, but you can create your own widget that would work how you would like
So how do I fix it? i dont really get the timer stuff
cause some are set to 6 lines and 7 lines
@cinder olive
Either lower your minute requirement or chat line requirement
How it works is everyone X online minutes it checks the chat line total, if the chat line meets the requirement it posts, if not it skips
So if you dont get 6 messages in 12 minutes it wont post
oh okay
When creating a new command, I have noticed that I can not use a sound clip. I just want random people to not worry about using redemptions for such, is there a way around this. Thank you
okay so i have a stream starting soon countdown how do i start that over when im doing a new stream
Should refresh automatically, if it doesnt refresh session & change scenes real quick
okay cool im gonna try it
so you mean close OBS and re open it
or is there a better way to do it
Nope, just change to a different scene & swap back or refresh scene
hello, I need some help whenever you get the chance!
@urban bison dont ask for help, ask for what you are struggling with π
so changing scenes i make one not visible and make the other one visible then hit transition
haha sorry, will do
Essentially, yeah. you just want to 'refresh' the scene so the timer will update
Either by changing scene and going back or refreshing it
is there a refreash button
well I'm making my alert box for an overlay I'm doing, and I want to change the "new subscriber" image, but whenever i try to add a gif/image, it's still the default.ogg gif. I can change my new follwer image, but the subsciber one won't register as the image i want basically.
@urban bison are you editing it for every variation? (i.e. follower specifically then sub)
it doesn't seem like i am. how would i do that?
found it nevermind thank you
@urban bison each gearwheel here needs to be edited to your liking
You can view that by clicking on your alert box and going to 'settings'
Greetings, all. Can a custom chat command be set up to display an image or play a sound when a pre-defined command is given, like !lol displaying a clown image, for example?
I see. I'm in the variations settings and I am able to change the default gif to what i want, hopefully it'll work. thank you so much
it did work, thank you!!
Hello, sorry to post here but i have a problem. Any staff available to help ?
@flat ridge by default not that I am aware
you can however create a command to redeem a item on your streamelements store that requires 0 points that would activate the alert that is a clown?
@viral vector whatcha need mate
I need to reset all my data from the labels 'cause i multiple time import from streamlabs to SE and i have a wrong amout of the all time top tipper.
And i unfortunately block a tipper instead of delete him, i'm so dumb
@viral vector absolutely no idea how to do so, but I have ask the higher powers that will things to be and will get a answer back to you asap π
Thanks!
@cinder olive Thanks! I'll take a look.
okay i have another issue, after changing my screenname, kappagen is working but its not showing the BTT and FFZ emotes anymore, but those emotes are working in my chat (tho i unsynced btt and ff and relogged into both just to be sure) any idea why?

Hello my Commands doesntwork anymore
same
Hey there! I have no idea if this is the right place to put this, so if this is the wrong spot I apologize. I am currently switching from Streamlabs to Stream Elements to my alerts, but for some reason they continually break in a way that streamlabs does not. Because of this I am having to use Streamlabs for my alerts and Streamelements for everything else, which is ovbously not a great solution. I have the NerdOrDie Arcade Pop Alert Box, but for some reason, sometimes when I put in a test alert, the diamond around the alert logo will shift downwards making the entire thing look broken. This happens for every single kind of alert at random. Sometimes it works, but most of the time it freaks out. I recorded a video of my problem as well. Is there a way I can post it somewhere here to get some help? Loving everything ELSE about Stream Elements so far though!
okay i have another issue, after changing my screenname, kappagen is working but its not showing the BTT and FFZ emotes anymore, but those emotes are working in my chat (tho i unsynced btt and ff and relogged into both just to be sure) any idea why?
to add i noticed in "select emotes" its blank, it doenst even have my sub enotes or the normal twitch ones that were there before
(addition to my first paragraph:) This problems has never once occurred within Streamlabs after using it for more than two months, which leads me to believe the problem has something to do with Stream Elements instead of the custom alert itself
Question, I'm getting a 404 on my chatstats, and I'm noticing the Streamelements report doesn't accurately display the stats from the stream
also, is there anyway I can remove a platform?
@potent mica Please logout of StreamElements at https://streamelements.com/logout and then login again to your account (Twitch/Youtube/Facebook/Mixer)
@crisp dawn iirc did you import the alertbox from Streamlabs to SE?
@normal sequoia There is no easy way to unlink 2 owner-type accounts from each other. The only way is to make a closure request from here: https://streamelements.com/dashboard/account/security
WARNING: In submitting a closure request, all linked channels within the account will be deleted and you will lose all associated data. This includes overlays, custom commands, timers and past data (tips, subs, etc). You can still reconnect with the deleted account, but you are essentially starting fresh.
Hey! Does anyone know how to add a subgoal bar to my overlay on streamelements?
What about in regards to chatstats?
@normal sequoia did you change your twitch username?
I did
@abstract hemlock Hi there! Nope. I used the automatic Stream Element Install hyperlink in the files given in the pack
old: nolifedigital
new: diyord1e
@crisp dawn better to contact NoD about this then π
do you think this affected my Streamelements summary report as well?
@abstract hemlock alright. Thanks for the help towards the right direction π
@potent mica Please logout of StreamElements at https://streamelements.com/logout and then login again to your account (Twitch/Youtube/Facebook/Mixer)
i have done that like 5 times and no luck on kappagen recognizing btt and ffz, also incase this has to do with it my old name was krissasaur, and my new one is krissatiel
@normal sequoia It should be working now
is it possible to merge my old name stats with my new name stats on this page https://stats.streamelements.com/c/m0xyy mvnkey + monkey0w
@potent mica delete the widget and add it back
what do you mean? i tried remaking the overlay already and that didnt help, and i tried adding it back as a new browser source as well
@native parcel wdym? i can merge stats from your old username to your current one
i mean the number of lines
i have like 50k on this name
and 30k on the old name
and each have a spot it self
if i understand correctly, the fix is typing !rename OLDNAME (replace OLDNAME with your old username) on the streamer's chat
yeah ive been told to do that before but nothing happened
and the last time i wasnt really clear about what stats i ment
but yeah last time i tried it didnt work
the streamer need to enabled that command
@potent mica 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.

is it not possible to be done manualy on your side π€
becuase if i ask he would just ignore me, or say that hes too lazy
also i use streamlabs, but i installed obs.live to trouble shoot, and BTT and FFZ emotes aren't working with kappagen there either. BTT and FFZ are working with my streamlabs chat, so i made a test streamelements chat and they are not working in the streamelements chat either, so BTT and FFZ are not working with my streamelements overall
sorry, typos, i fixed them
@native parcel we can make any changes on the streamer account that he didn't ask
no i didnt mean the command i mean the number it self
i am assuming thats the case for the number too right π€
the command will take a unique useriD and match it with the one provide as a argument
so it will need to be done in chat
ight 
@true aurora i'm pretty sure that we have a variable for that .. let me check
@true aurora try this ${leagueoflegends perfil servidor} i.e : ${leagueoflegends Jukes BR}
if i pretend that you are 6 i may have to report your account cause you have to be at least 13 for stream
13 then
But i can elaborate a little more about the custom command https://streamelements.com/dashboard/bot-commands/custom-commands
Hello! None of my commands are working for my Twitch.
I typed !commands and some of the custom commands and they don't work at all.
@pale lark 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
Anyone know if I can turn off grid snap in the layout editor?
@fossil yoke
i'm not sure which channel i should post this question
are we allowed to use StreamElement's tipping page on streaming platforms that are NOT twitch?
@vagrant glacier For the best OBS support, please join their Official Discord @ discord.gg/obsproject

How do i add a command to my streamelemants
Okay so I am having an issue with loyalty points. I have added bots that show up in my chat at random to the excluded list from gaining points for just being there. However. When I use the !addpoints all command it still gives them points and I need to keep going in an clearing them out from the leaderboard later. Is there a specific command or way to only give points to those who are actively typing in chat or to somehow not give points to these random bots? Feel free to @ me to ping a notification if anybody has an answer to this!
Hi, Having an issue where a Regex is functioning normally in my channel, but then the exact same Regex isn't working in a channel I am modding for. π€
Hello, I have been having an ongoing problem where my sub counter works only in the preview on SE and not on OBS. It used to work fine, then disappeared one day. I have been trying to figure it out on my own for months to no avail, and am positive t hat it is some sort of Glitch.
Activity feed in OBS.Live is not allowing to be updated
im trying to use the mediashare but when i try to limit the time it doesnt limit it
i limit it to anything and it doesnt limit
it just plays the whole video
Can you do !title to change the title as a twitch mod?
Or do you have to add that with night not
Hi guys
Hi
Hey i just went live on OBS .live but on twitch im not live what should i do
is there a way to chow channel point redeems in the chat?
So if the streamer is is streaming on PS4 or Xbox and you have like a music request thing from night bot or something does the stream hear it or no?
looking to delete my account but SE is not recognizing my username
A bit worried since I see more questions than answers in here, but... I have a sub alert variation to activate if someone tier 2 subs, but for some reason the overlay preview in the editor will show it, but OBS will show a tier 1 sub alert instead. anyone know how to fix this?
@warped radish isn't that already a default 
in the stream elements chat for on the stream*
@lethal vault no, nightbot has to play audio from a website or something, then you have to get that audio into your obs
hsblue, you mean the chat integrated within obs.live?
yeah that
yeah, those should just appear automatically, I don't know why they wouldn't show up. maybe there's a setting somewhere
Β―_(γ)_/Β―
@dark cypress The command if used as !addpoints all will give points to everyone who us currently in chat, regardless if they are on the ignore list or not.
@peak storm who is the streamer?
@crisp minnow OBS -> settings -> advanced -> scroll down -> enable/disable hardware accel. (This does not apply for OBS on Mac)
https://i.imgur.com/ggMe9ZE.png
@frozen dust 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
@lament blade from the dashboard or obs.live media request?
heres what i mean
@lethal vault !settitle is the chat command
@warped radish ohhhh, lemme check myself
@celest plover Please send the same details as the closure form requires to our CTO Reem here: reem@streamelements.com - he will close your account.
thank you
in the dashboard
@lethal vault Consoles do not have native support for overlays. You would need a capture card, PS4 remote play or Xbox companion app 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
@warped radish didn't see anything that'd fix it
chrome
@zenith widget fanhots is the streamer. I ended up changing it to a Command Keyword to get it to function properly, but still is weird.
Also other Regex commands normally function properly for his stream, but occasionally not and the particular instance from today that I was referencing didn't work no matter what i changed and yet still worked fine on my personal stream. @zenith widget
Regex is finicky so its a bit a of a hard topic to troubleshoot :/
but if its working the way you fixed it, thats awesome
Yeh it's tough because sometimes a Regex will be working, then randomly 1 day it will stop detecting the text properly. Then I add a Space in the Regex, Save, delete the Space, Save and it sometimes fixes it xD @zenith widget
oh well
@burnt hearth Your variations are weird. At 1.6% chance to trigger, its a bit hard for them to trigger
so when the chance doesn't trigger, it will default back to the default alert
i tried it at 100% and it still didnt work
and wow, didn't know you could look at my stuff lol
damn alright thanks
lemme remake it so there's just that one tier 2 variation
well that worked at 100%
is there anyone i can ask to add it to SE?
Add what?
but it shows up differently in my obs keizar, do it again and i'll screenshot it
oops miss clicked
oh
I wasnt ready lol
ooh, got it to show on obs
idk if that was one of your triggers, or my one custom trigger I did, but it activated right after I did mine
I gotta figure out what made it work though
if you clicked it it sends a test alert
oh, i've tried that before and it didn't make any form of alert show up in my obs, but showed in the editor
but it works now
Β―_(γ)_/Β―
also, my chances earlier were 1.666 because there was gonna be 60 variations, some for tiers, some for gifts, and variations on top of those catagories for sfx and rotated images
60 variations? i would suggest to lower it to 10 or 20
60 won't allow the overlay to save
oh
thx for telling me that now, that saved an hour of tedious work 
also, why does OBS play a different variation than the editor sometimes from the same activation of an alert?
because of chances
but I thought the browser source was basically a screen capture of the editor, so how come OBS has its own separate chances?
OBS has its own browser essentially
so it actually LOADS the page in it self
thats how the browser source works
its not a screen capture
ok probably final question. how do chances work?if I were to have 3 variations, each with a 50% chance, what happens (since the total chance is now 150%)? and are chances with variations of the same category combined (tiers, gifts, resubs), or are all variation chances combined together?
ah, interesting
how to close my account ?
@severe inlet https://streamelements.com/dashboard/account/security
@burnt hearth Theres no total chance. Each variation when conditions are met, for example Resub exactly 12 months and it has a 20% to trigger, then the system will see its conditions meet and will throw a dice(not really, but do a random number generator based on the 20%). If it lands on lets say 15 then its gonna trigger, else its going to ignore it and see where it can fall back. If there is a 2nd variation with the same condition but 60%, it will try to use that and again do the same procedure and so on and so on, until it falls back to the previous alert that matches its conditions

ohhh, that makes more sense
so, assuming you still have my overlay opened, do I need chances for my tier 2 variations, or will the alertbox automatically randomize which of the 3 variations it uses because of this thing
If you untick that, it will only pick the first one in the list
got it, thank you 
Is there a bug with the alertbox? I can't seem to make it text only. It has to have an image or video
Check variations
Afterwards click on "text settings" -> advanced -> change top margin from -50 to 0
You can use the ankhbot importer
But you will have to cehck the format of the qoutes from SL
As Im not sure my self
That's weird, I don't remember ever having to do that for my text alerts
@zenith widget thank you π
Another quick thing - can I edit quotes once they've been added?
remember me? https://streamable.com/ad0vhi
this time no chance shenanigans, easy to understand variations
question, if i was previously streaming on facebook but switched to twitch so when i go live it prompts me for facebook and wont let me go live. what do i do?
@obtuse mirage Streamelements on top of OBS -> Logout -> login
@burnt hearth why is this 0%?
oh, I thought we said it didn't matter since the alerts had to do a tier 3 anyway, oops
works now, thx again
hey guys, planning on starting stream on twitch soon. can someone help me and explain all the different features etc which are needed or can be used while streaming?
pls @ or dm me if you can help me
@sharp badger Your question is more related to #general-chat as this channel is for help regarding our tools and features for Twitch and not general questions
Or you can google research your questions
Commands are working now. However, : Parsing error at position 94: Mismatched input list, missing end of inputs, when using my "shoutout" (!so) command
Most likely you have a missing }
oh ok, let me verify...
Does the profanity filter not work....?
Testing it out and right now I just typed n***er even though I hve all filters on
Where are you testing it?
please remove the twitch part
np
But yea, we tried nig*, the whole word, standard filter...
It all still goes through
Im seeing that its being stopped
am looking at the overlay and its not playing the alert
He's hearing it in his OBS?
