^ also handled in #general-chat
since adding Stream Elements my live stream won't start, what am I doing wrong?
^ are you using obs.live?
yes, well I guess it is working. youtube isn't showing me "online" still says "offline" but in my vids it says I'm live. weired
others saw the streams
can you dm me your url @balmy patrol
@balmy patrol are you talking about chat widget for twitch?
The streamelements giveaway tool on youtube is missing? Is there any support similar to the twitch giveaway widget?
Giveaways and the Loyalty system are not supported on YouTube.
is there any good alternative on YouTube? How do y'all do it then
Not that we are aware of.
can you use Streamelements on streamlabs?
@thick cape SL is not a streaming platform like Youtube. SL is a company like us, that provide tools for streamers.
@pallid thorn chat widget only works with twitch?
if yes then dont mind me i m talkin about youtube chat
If you are referring to a chat widget for overlays - yes , we only have it for Twitch
ok, does streamelements support restream?
no
How do I allow tips on a ps4 stream?
^ if your streaming right from your ps4 you will need a computer to have super chat enabled and watch chat from phone or computer, if your capturing your ps4 with a capture device you can have an overlay in the capture software (OBS, game capture). Donation link can be added to your YouTube channel
👍👍👍
I've set custom message for every spam filter, but bot doesn't send it, it just timeouts the user. Any idea why?
^ try PART the bot from the channel and re JOIN
hello i want to ask you how to get out of this account on twitch and get on youtube http://prntscr.com/p2rhw3
@subtle dagger
streamelements > logout
and settings > stream > disconnect
How do I take my discord in
^ whats the question
Could a staff member please PM me, I linked my youtube account like what seems years ago, trying to unclaim/close that account so I can merge it with my twitch account/sign in
It seems to come up with invalid email on the close account thing, but can't think what other email address it would be, also can't find it in the settings
@drowsy swift i DM you
Thanks @pallid thorn
does streamelements work with youtube events? the new control center? I started a new stream (events) after the stream (old control center) and nightbot just remained in the old chat and now shows offline
maybe obslive support events? not using it yet
I'm afraid to use obslive because I'm afraid I can't use plain obs anymore afterwards. Is it like that?
streaming to the events works as normal (overlays/subs/donos/etc...), however as this is a new branch of the platform the bot wont join.
also we dont look after the nightbot, only the SE bot
oops I meant streamelements bot (using both)
obslive is just a plugin you can uninstall anytime and your scenes and sources stay put
have to use nightboit too because of giveaways feature
but with obslive events still won't work? bot won't join?
youtube has a very funny chat api and it takes our bot awhile to join heres some tips
To set up the bot for your YouTube stream, please follow these steps:
- Make sure your stream is public. The bot cannot join a private/unlisted stream.
- Your stream must be live for the bot to join the chat.
- Add https://youtube.com/c/streamelements as a Comment Moderator at https://www.youtube.com/comment_management
- When live, be sure to look at Live chat instead of Top chat, as Top chat will hide the bot messages.
Note that it can take some time after going live before the bot joins your chat.
Official youtube channel for StreamElements tutorials https://StreamElements.com
Share your videos with friends, family, and the world.
will the bot work with events? or do I go back to the old control center for streaming
I have not heard anything about the new control center
it's kind of like the old events
ok, but good enough. I'll switch to the normal live center
the one that always has the same stream key
Hello how can I change my name for the youtube account, it is displaying wrong. my username is thewaterygoat on youtube but comes up as dean9550 on steamelements it's so weird
@arctic apex I am afraid it has something to do with you YT account settings.
this is the link to your channel:
if you change the dean9550 by thewaterygoat, I get no result
"the channel doesn't exist"
Would be a youtube thing, as the account name and channel are maybe different. Or you changed some sort of display name for youtube to thewaterygoat and the channel name is still on dean9550. Best to contact YT if there is a way to change this, too.
I am also trying to find out how to run two bots from twitch and youtube whilst using restream and steamelements
but i dont know how to
i am so baffled
oh...
so weird.
i try to go to settings but it just says thewaterygoat which is what i updated it as
is there a way with obs.live to add the youtube chat to the overlay?
my account is old and i think i set it as dean9550 when i was like 13... it's hidden beneath youtube. not sure how im supposed to get in contact with them. i think i read they dont change exisint usernames so that means streamelements must have a way to change my name manually (comes up with dean9550 on tips)
@cold sonnet There is no chat widget for youtube.
feature request: chat widget and giveaway bot 😉
@cold sonnet Check out the StreamElements ideas board: https://strms.net/ideas. You'll be able to add ideas, upvote ideas you agree with, and track their progress with email notifications. Adding and upvoting ideas also helps the staff know which ideas should be prioritized so please take some time to upvote.
is there still no widget for youtube chatbox ??
any way to get the original name of the account off of the streamelements landing page?
@crystal condor Unfortunately not yet
I need to stream from my mobile with steam lab and I use this call a pubg how
ask streamlabs
I seem to be having trouble with my video resolutions. what resolutions must I use?
yo i need help with a tip goal for my stream.
@versed tangle what are you trying to do?
I want to reset the donation amount
reset the amount i got donated
like its now 57% but i want to reset it to 0%
https://streamelements.com/dashboard/session -> goals tab
appreciate it
🙂
yo under the goal it says ''Ends'' without any date. Can i remove that? Because i don't really have a end date
Use condensed or simple mode.
um...resolutions?
question: obs.live chat does not show my youtube channel user but the main user that the channel belongs to, e.g. not the channel name but my prime gmail name. why is that?
How to change it?
my prime gmail
my actual youtube channel
Hi StreamElements
I just discovered an amazing feature which is the Bot Modules! especially the one for twitter
but it doesn't seem to work
I need help:
- In what format I can add the twitter handle?
- What is meant by tweets and replies?
- Can I set it up so it will copy in the chat the questions I get on twitter (tweets to a certain hashtag OR tweets that mention my handle)?
You're getting it backwards. It will broadcasts the tweets sent by the account you add, not sent to the account you add.
If you add your own account, if you're not tweeting from it, nothing will happen.
@fickle pagoda Oh I see now! that's why!!!! ... How can I allow it to follow a certain handle mentioned or a certain hashtag? Can it do that? Would NightBot do that?
Is there a way to have a Twitter bot retweet all tweets with a certain hashtag? or mention? ... so I can link that Twitter bot account to the ChatBot ... you get my idea?
Not that I'm aware of.
OK ... Thank you so much for your help ... I do appreciate it
any answer to my question up there?
@cold sonnet Streamelements on top of OBS -> Logout -> login
I’ll try if that helps for next time. Why would it even take the gmail user not the youtube channel name user?
I assume you cannot logout/login during stream?
you can
it’s not streamimg my login if I do?
I meant when I logout obs.live shows the google/youtube login window inside obs and I was afraid it streams that as content during live
well if you have desktop capture you might show it to the stream
i am from finland and i don't know what you all speak
@versed tangle we have a "non english" section too.. check them below 😉
only no finnish channel DJ 😅
Anyone having problems with subscribers not updating on Stream Elements? People are subbing to me and stuff and nothing shows up in the dashboard and no notification is showed on stream
I have not seen any reports today with YouTube sub problems
:/
^ can you confirm StreamElements bot was connected to your chat when the subs came in?
Yup
It's sending the timer messages that i have set up
They are not showing up on the dashboard either
Weird
if the profiles are privet nothing will show either on alerts on in the feed
this is a setting with youtube
Indeed, i had my subscriptions set to private. Damn, thank you!
not just yours @ruby warren its everyone that subs to you. if their profile is privet then you wont see it
Good to know. Thanks again ❤

Have fun.
Hi @fleet kite, 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.
Let's make sure we're on the same page. Record the screen or capture the screen for your stream?
?
For youtube
record for youtube
No
i dont want too
Okay, can we maybe not spam the channel with a few words at a time? We can use complete sentences.
Sorry, can you answer him and help him?
Ok, can you help me please?
I'm assuming you're using OBS Studio?
Okay. And in your canvas, as in the preview in the OBS window, do you see your screen at all?
nope
No he doesnt, when he goes there it doesnt show him the screens on either side, hes also using the latest version
Have you added a capture source? As in, a display capture, game capture, or window capture?
game capture
and he tried a display capture
Did you set it to be looking at the correct game?
OH!
And are you running OBS as an administrator?
Right click the source > Properties.
I cant find source...
I'd recommend having your OBS up to date on version 23.2.1
its next to what u did ..
thats what i have -_-
go back to it and look at our chat
Oh
Let's keep it civil here at least, gentlemen?
Thanks
👍
Yes?
Screenshot what you're looking at for me.
ok
Hes taking a 2nd one the first one didnt work
Scroll up in the properties, please, and try again.
Nice
Change the mode to capture a specific window and select the correct one.
@fleet kite stop looking in twitch
Nthyr, he did so but he doesn't know what you mean by the correct one, but he did set it to specific window
Please take your time 🙂
Which window did you select?
specififc
Specifically, which window is selected in the "Window" dropdown?
(Those are the only options, he has none in)
What precisely are you trying to capture?
My screen
Gameplay
Do you have the game actually running right now?
He doesnt
Well, then that's why it doesn't show up in the dropdown.
Stop, yes we should, why are you spamming chat, its your choice baka
Go back to our chat
Hi, we made the video and now we need to know where it goes in files and where it gets saved, can we get help with that?
Check your OBS settings.
Where should we find it?
Output.
Where in output?
Hi, If you see this thank you for your assistance.I have sucessfully made a video 🙂
I dont know how to apay you 😦
hello i was streaming to youtube but my chat is using the wrong youtube
the chat that is in obs.live is using my personal youtube instead of my brand account youtube. Same email.
Log out with the StreamElements menu at the top and log in with the correct YouTube account. It should let you pick.
I did that just now and it is still using the parent account for the live chat
@valid shore When logging in, after entering in your email, it should prompt you like so:
You need to make sure you select the correct one.
I can't stream in my phone
If this is about our app, please ask in #helpdesk-mobile
Yeah it does do that and I choose right account but when I start stream it uses main account.
So then also check your OBS stream settings.
Then they probably set the option to have them private. Nothing you can do in that case.
Unless you're talking about your Twitch channel in which case you're in a very wrong place.
Yeah no luck with that. So weird. My chat box still uses the main account but my live stream is streaming to the right account which is my brand account.
Hello. Not really sure where to put this question. But I'm having issues closing my Youtube SE account so that I can merge it with my Twitch account.
^ DM me your JWT token from YTSE and DM me your JWT token from Twitch SE
Were is media request in twitch it has it but not on you tube I am looking though my desktop but nothing is there any ideas why this is?
no mr for youtube
yep, only for twitch
Where can I find the Updates log for OBS.Live?
We don't release logs as most of them are just bug fixes. If there's any new features, we announce them.
I need to know what new fixes and feature I got as I just updated
There are new features like this Audio rerouting thing I just noticed
where do I find a link for that in details?
thats an obs feature, not something from stream elements
Also that.
I see ... thank you so much
I need help
Hi @tacit saddle, 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.
How can i use the stream elements bc i AM streaming right now but idk how to make stream elements to work
@tacit saddle New to Stream Elements?
Check out our YouTube channel https://www.youtube.com/c/streamelements/videos
with tutorial videos from setting up the basics, to in depth details on how to use our product.

It takes some time, but you can check the tutorial videos over at the youtube, I'd do it offstream when you have the time
So whenever I try to use obs.live chat, it is actually the wrong person in the chat. My main google account, not the youtube account. I already reported. Login/Logout does not change this. Eventhough I connect to the channel, it's not showing my channel as user
had you tried this one yet?
https://discordapp.com/channels/141203863863558144/415814031232991232/620789679842787457
and if it still does that should check it in the obs settings, if its also not your main google account
yers the prompt was there, I selected my gaming channel but then in the chat it uses my main account
have you parted the bot from the channel in SE dashboard
okay what about clearing the obs browser cache
during the stream?
then close obs completely
no this will be after
go to this %appdata%\obs-studio\plugin_config\obs-browser\obs_profile_cookies and delete the files there
oh then I try afterwards
this folder does not exist: obs_profile_cookies
how do i get the obs thing
Pardon?
to use the themes and stuff
You don't need anything to use themes.
@versed tangle To add your overlays to OBS, add a new browser source in your scene. Paste your overlay URL in the browser source properties, set the dimensions to 1920x1080 (unless you changed them on the website), and ☑ “Shutdown source when not visible” https://youtu.be/KDvLynUqXI4
ok
so I'm pretty sure there's a bug in obs.live (see above). when your google account has multiple youtube channel the chat does not display the channel user but the google user eventhough I selected the channel.
If you view the stream from a browser, type a message from obs.live
what do you see from the browser?
What to do if subscribe alert is not working?
do they work in obs when you emulate them in the editor?
when i play the old ones in dashboard they show at my obs
but i dont see the new ones
for example i sub today from another account and nothing happens
also i dont see this sub in my dashboard
¯_(ツ)_/¯
is that account private or has private settings?
it shouldnt be let me check
also have you subbed with that account before?
no for today test i made new account
ah okay, thought maybe if it was a old one it wouldnt reshow
where i can find if its public or not
Users can choose to make the channels that they subscribe to public or private. By default, all settings are set to private.
Private: When a users subscriptions are set to private, no other user can see what channels they subscribe to. A user's account does not show in a channel's Subscribers List, even if they are subscribed.
Public: When users subscriptions are set to public, another user can see what channels they subscribe to. User subscriptions are listed on their channel page, and their account is listed in the Subscribers List for any channel they subscribe to.
If a user has it set to Private they will not show up in the activity feed. More info: https://support.google.com/youtube/answer/7280190
Youtube subscription privacy settings: https://support.google.com/youtube/answer/7280190?hl=
ok i have this unchecked
so its public like it should
oh my new account has this checked
so it means if some1 give me a subscribe with this option checked then I will not be informed about this
yes
I stream on YouTube at 720 60fps but my Quality is very low for some reason. I have a few questions regarding my settings:
-
Which encoder should I use? (Software or Hardware)
-
What should my bitrate be? (Currently Set to 6000)
-
What should my encoding preset be? (Currently set to Very Fast)
-
Which process priority should I use? (Currently Set to High)
Here is my PC specs:
- CPU: Intel Core i7-6700Â
- GPU: AMD R9 390
- RAM: Samsung M378A1G43DB0-CPB 2x8GB
- MBD: Asus PRIME B250M-A
- PSU: 750W
Connection:
- Fiber
- 300 Download
- 300 Upload
Please do ping me if you can help!
youtube re-encodes everything you send them, so make sure that you send the best possible quality you can transmit. They accept up to 50'000 bitrate, so for your case I would push at least 10000-15000 bitrate to send them something near visually lossless as possible
Thank you! I will do that. But I do have a question, is this guy you?
@idle dune
Also, do you have any idea what I should do with the following?
-
Which encoder should I use? (Software or Hardware)
-
What should my encoding preset be? (Currently set to Very Fast)
-
Which process priority should I use? (Currently Set to High)
Here is my PC specs:

Basiclly, My OBS wont allow me to record because a "bad File problem"? Im not sure what that even mean...
@fleet kite For the best OBS support, please join their Official Discord @ discord.gg/obsproject
i Cant chat with them right now i have to be in there for atleast 20 minutes
Hello there, I'm looking for a way to enable a sound effect for each incoming chat message (or at least mentions if possible) looking at forums I've come to understand that SE chatbot can do this for youtube and chatty for twitch, but I can't figure out how to? I'm getting notifications for subs etc. but cant find an option for chat messages? Thanks!
No, we don't have such a thing. I believe there are 3rd party programs that can actually play you a sound snippet or something when you are mentioned in chat.
You have a policy of not recommending these or even pointing me in the right direction? 🙂
Saw Streamlabs recommending people to write their own python scripts... I feel like this could be a wanted feature especially on new channels and VR channels, where it's hard to keep track of the chat, and engaging with new viewers is important when you're starting out
Anyway, thanks for the quick answer 🙂 Any tips on keywords, my searches keep bringing me results on how to get subscription overlays and in-chat bots?
"Youtube streaming chat TTS"
i've seen people use a TTS for YT chat
maybe you can find something from there
Nice, havent searched at all for TTS! I'll report back if I find something
Well, didn't quite find what I wanted, but something pretty close.
https://www.speechchat.com/
It does TTS, but thats risky 😄 I turned off TTS and enabled a custom notificaiton sound file (I added the pling from facebook) whenever someone says something in the chat.
A web based chat client for Twitch, Youtube, Mixer with text to speech.
so you found a way 🙂
Yeah, seems like the "standard" recommendation is "use a second screen for chat, open YT chat in a popup window, place it next to your screen and notice movement in peripheral vision".
I guess, but I stream my lectures, so I'll be wherever in class helping students when the messages roll in. Also I teach like 40ppl in class and round 10 of them might be on YT, so I'll not have the flooding problem most streamers do. Custom solutions for custom applications 🙂
Hi, I keep trying to log in through YouTube in my OBS, however it still keeps giving me this error
I've also tried with another YT account, it went smoothly
Every permission is set, to how it should be, StreamLabs has full access.
on your Streamelements in a browser are you able to login with said YT account
I had troubles with that as well, but I managed to find a workaround through some custom link
but unfortunately I can't paste any links to obs window
what was the workaround for the browser
i think it was either a direct dashboard link, or https://streamlabs.com/login?r=%2Fzendesk
i don't remember, i was trying multiple things, but one of them actually worked
are you able to screen share in a DM?
i think so, yeah, but i've never done that
may I DM you
alright, everything's fine, nevermind 😂
hi, um i was just wondering, i just started using it, and when i press start streaming, and i set it all up, it says this.
please tell me how to fix.
Did you check if you run the latest drivers on your gpu? @deep wolf

Thank you
@lusty minnow we have a special support channel for #🇩🇪︱deutsch btw!
viewers command doesnt work anymore?
Wym @versed tangle?
The error says make sure that your video card drivers are up to date
so have you checked if your video card has the latest driver installed?
what video card do you have?
Ummmmm, my dad usually helps me cuz he comes over so thats why i dont understand
I may seem like a nub in tech
Cuz i am, kinda
@deep wolf can you go to your obs settings and show me which encoder you are running under output?
and if you are running the one thats stated, so nvenc by example, try another one and see if the error still pop up?
no worries!
i need help
Hi @elfin gust, 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.
i stream on playstaion is there away i can stream on playstion and have a overlay
Yes - with a capture card
what is that
how do I use it
Do you have a capture card?
no but ill get one but I want to know how to use it before I get one
It depends on the card. Some are plugged into the PC mother board, some are plugged via cables between your PC GPU and console
All capture cards have instruction manuals
okay thanks
https://yoink.streamelements.com/activity-feed/
Can I login from this link also from youtube or only from twitch?
^ hello
So how to add overlay to StreamElements?
There is some link that I have to copy
But where do i paste it to?
OBS add source > browser source > paste overlay url > change resolution to 1920 x 1080
thanks brother ❤
Ah i see you found this channel. Welcome to SE @jagged cobalt im sure someone will help you with this 😁
@harsh nova Yeah m8 i found it! Thanks for helping me 😄
hey @jagged cobalt having SE.Pay signup issues
The issue is. There is no SEPay sign-up to be found. Only G2a. Think it is disabled for his account.
Yeah ^^
yes sir, looking now
Alright!
@jagged cobalt log out of stream elements and log back in
thanks!
Hi im using restream for my youtube channel, how long does it take for the streamelements dashboard to say im online after going live, ive been streaming on youtube for 5 minutes already and it hasnt said im online or responding to any commands
is restream causing any problems for it? because its not picking up that my youtube channel is live
takes a awhile as it also take a minute for the bot to join the channel
alright thanks, also im having some problems with the quote system, i have it set to subscriber for yotube subscribers but subscribers can only use just the !quote command and cant add quotes to the list
i can use the command myself as the broadcaster, but even when i set the permissions to everyone, they can only use the !quote command without add or delete
@dim bramble that is by design as we currently don't have quotes displayed in your dashboard and do not need moderators and subscribers adding inappropriate quotes that can be called during stream thus owner is the only one to add and remove quotes
if you feel like this feature should be optional with warning acceptance you should suggest it here https://strms.net/ideas
im using it as a makeshift queueing system for adding levels when streaming mario maker among other things, is there a better way to do this?
you mean like a time marker?
no like a thing where subscribers could type a command and add their level code to a list that we can play from
you may need to take a look in the #command-share and #developer-api to find a solution
Hello there. I recently changed my channel name on YouTube but the tipping link still reflects the old channel name, which bothers me. How do I go about changing this

Hi StreamElements ... How can I integrate Patreon in my StreamElements Alerts or Overlay? I mean how can I show the names of Patreons and possibly their class/rank in my stream?
^ sounds like you will need a custom widget to pull in those alerts you can check in #widget-share
when my overlay at 1080p is changed to 720p it seems like it crops all of the layers. Is it possible to easily either change the elements to fit the canvas or autoscale everything when changing resolutions?
Unfortunately no. You will have to manually adjust the widget sizes in the overlay it self, before or after you change its resolution
Is there a way to use the same tipping page on my Twitch and YT channels?
alerts trigger different for each type of platform alert thus they need to be separate
streamelements bot commands is not working properly on youtube
what should i get height and the width of the overlay
@rain echo in what Ratio do you want to stream? (16:9 ; 21:9) and in which resolution? (1080p ; 720p)
im streaming fortnite at 720p
@rain echo then you should choose 1280x720
yeah ik that but when we add the overlay for the 1 time then there is a specific width and height that is 1920x
@versed tangle
in overlay manager you can create a new overlay at any resolution when you give it a name
can you screen shot this https://gyazo.com/0d8d398a4e8dad81cf8cc30ecabea787
OBS>streamelements > log out
Thankyou
hi
@native rivet hey, what problem do you have :)?
how does one add a playlist from youtube in the player thingy , so far ive only managed to add one song at a time
@native rivet if you start your obs live and go to song request in settings . there you can copy paste a link to a playlist which will be played if no songs are request, a backup playlist
note that media request id not supported for youtube
whats that
also another dumb question how do i return to stream elements fancy thing instead of obs studio, cuz theres a button switch to studio but no back button
@native rivet do you mean the buttons on the bottom right corner? there is a studio mode
do you see the stream elements menu at the top?
@native rivet i dont understand it right i think, do you mean the plugin obs.live?
@native rivet if you uninstalled obs.live you have to redownload it on their website
@native rivet if you see streamelements on the top click on it and then switch to obs.live or streamelements
ok in the aisle for file edit etc , theres streamelements and when i press it says go into obs studio or uninstall obs.live
when i click enter obs studio it says im already there
@native rivet then you can manually activate all needed things
can you give us the stream elements version number from control panel programs
can you screen shot us your obs
@native rivet at the moment obs 24.0.1 is buggy with obs.live because it doesnt support it right down, if you want to use all features properly you have to downgrade your obs to 23.2.1
alguem pode me ajudar\
faco tudo direitinho na hora do teste la no site as notificacoes de teste chega mais quando alguem me segue de verdade eu nao recebo nada
nao aparece la nos feed no site
recebo doacao tb nao aparece nos feed nem no overlay

Hello, why it Comes Always in the Desktop Software
StreamElements logo
Something went wrong.. please try again later
when I try to connect with YouTube but only on the Desktop Software.
It isn’t appearing in stream
@proven finch what isnt appearing in the stream?
The bot
@proven finch do you have set up a custom bot?
@proven finch do you have set up a custom bot name?
@proven finch it might be handier if someone else has the problem that they join the server and can ask for support here
no worries, just handier because they probably know more about their settings 😄
I am having a problem with my most recent subscriber not popping up with my widget, even though I have my youtube account linked with StreamElements. If anyone has an answer all help is welcomed 🙂
if people dont have their profiles set to public then it wont send the notification to SE
set the YouTube profile?
@errant pelican if you stream on youtube the subs must be public to anyone of the account that subbed
so anyone who subs must have a public profile for it to show up?
@errant pelican must have set the subs to public, yes

hi is it possible to merge my youtube and twitch channels for streamelements alerts
StreamElements doesn't support streaming to multiple platforms at the same time. Alerts will not merge between YouTube and Twitch.
Можно вопрос? С помощью команды возможно воспроизводить чтение голосом например: !чат и дальше любой текст за койны ...
@winter sigil we have designated non-english support under the non-english category, find your language under there

Question: is there an option to add live youtube chat to obs studio? Tx
@heavy marsh If you login with youtube in your streamelements obs it should show the youtube chat as widget

Did you rename your channel on YT?

Im getting the wrong font in OBS
from the one i want in my overlay editor
any help appreciated
Try reloading your overlay in oBS.
I have done that a few times
Have you tried deleting the overlay in OBS & entering the browser source again?
Yes, also when i click launch in the bottom right of the overlay it appears with the incorrect font
bottom left*
I wouldnt normally care too much but this one is the default font, and its a bit difficult to read
I found the issue, the 'Righteous' font isnt working, changed to Robot for the time being.
My StreamElements stopped responding to any commands over night. I have tried parting from my YouTube channel. Logout and logon. Still no response to !ping or any commands. Any ideas on how to get this working again?
@hot summit have you tried to let the bot rejoin the channel?
Is that the same and parting channel then rejoining?
@hot summit its in your dashboard on the mid right side, your express bot settings, maybe, I have my dashboard on an different language
Bot is running and activated
@hot summit still no response?
None
@hot summit have you used streamelements for different platforms? (youtube and twitch or facebook)
I even updated to the latest version of OBS and OBS Live
In the Dashboard it is showing the stream is live
@hot summit have in mind that obs.live doesnt support obs 24.0.1 for now
@hot summit have you configured a custom name bot?
It stopped working before I did the updates
A long time ago but it never worked but the chat commands still worked.
I just deleted the bot and will test
Still no response
Are you live right now?
Yes
How long have you been streaming? Usually should take a few minutes for the bot to join.
Since Sept. 20th
So you haven't turned off your Live Stream since the 20th?
4 Days nonstop streaming? 
Dedication
The Bot is responding to !ping
12:32 PM
StreamElements
streamelements has been running for 1 day 16 hours! elementsS
I fired up Nightbot again until StreamElements decides to start working again.
StreamElements works when pulling data from external sources ie (🎄 ${customapi.http://api.scorpstuff.com/daysuntil.php?mydate=2019-12-25} days until Christmas 2019 🎅🏻)
Yes

Can add that to the Ideas board. So far what I've been told is G2A.Pay available in your area.

@versed tangle we don't have a leveling system in this Discord
Greetings all. I need help on an account merge. (Signed in with new YouTube channel but need it on same account at old channel and twitch - which are on one).
@calm glen 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
Understood.
Yo I need help, My chat on streamelements has the wrong account linked to it.
@lyric mirage what do you mean exacly? wrong custom bot name?
In streamelements you have a live chat from your livestream. It's logged in on my main account but not the one im streaming on. So I am not the owner of the stream in the chat then
@lyric mirage slightly more precise, live chat from the dashboard or from your obs?
Obs
@lyric mirage Top bar of obs -> Streamelements -> Log Out -> Log in with the account you streaming on -> Live chat fixed
Thanks I will try
everyone else experience a 10-20 second delay in testing live streams on Youtube?
@lilac moss In the Live Control Room:
Create a live stream by going to http://youtube.com/livestreaming/stream.
At the top, click Stream.
Enter a title and description, then click Create Stream.
Click Settings.
Under "Stream optimizations", select your latency.
Click Save.
Share your videos with friends, family, and the world.
I need some help combining accounts. I was given a ruleset before but I didn't receive a follow up?
Actually going through with the merging. 
@calm glen Didn't see you say you wanted to go through with it anyway. Please DM me the JWT tokens of both channels, clearly displaying which goes to which streaming platform.
Ah! my bad. I shall.
@calm glen All merged.
@fickle pagoda I see it and thank you so much. Sorry for miscomm.
Hey guys so I wanna make it so it notifies me whenever someone subscribes is there a way to do that?
Yes, that'd be an alertbox.
Learn how to customize your alerts and setup different alerts variations with StreamElements Alertbox ----- Overlay Manager guide: https://youtu.be/X7XrDdRE7...
The loyalty system is not available for YouTube due to limitations with the YouTube API.
no....
Their system can't support what we had initially designed for Twitch.
ok
hay when i press start streaming it brings me to a blank screen
@junior meteor we might need a bit more info here. What obs ars you using? Obs.live version? Logging out of obs.live and back - does it help?
I nees help
Need
@versed tangle whats your issue :)?
It says unable to connect to YouTube
@versed tangle I'm not very familiar with youtube streaming. Have you connected your youtube account to obs or did you put in your stream key?
Well i downloaded the app logged in with youtube and pressed record
You still need to place your stream key
or set a recording path
if you just want to record
Oh ok
UPDATED 2018 version of The Ultimate Guide to Streaming to Twitch with OBS Studio. In this video, we go through how to setup OBS Studio's server, bitrate, re...
Same settings sort of apply for Youtube
@versed tangle record? and unable to connected to youtube? this things dont go together 😄
but the general guide for OBS is there
I meant stream
Ok gotta get up creator studio i guess
@versed tangle as @lime walrus said, paste your Stream key of your youtube acc in there and select as Server "Primär" not the backup one. Then it should work fine
Eh ill just use a different app
@versed tangle obs? obs.live? slobs? xsplit? what do you use
@modern oasis could you send us a screenshot of your issue?
@modern oasis 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.
@modern oasis "Monitor and Game Capture Sources interfere with each other. Never put them in the same scene"
@modern oasis also change your color format(?) in your advanced settings, have you NV12?
yeah
@modern oasis which options do you have?
@modern oasis there have to be more options
@modern oasis I think it was l420, try that
@modern oasis then it was l444, i knew i would choose the wrong one
@modern oasis your default settings were NV12, 709, Partial?
nv12 601 partial
@modern oasis set it to 709 instead of 601, and on which obs version are you on? obs.live installed?
yeah
idk how to check what version im on sry i sound a little slow
but i think its 24.0.1
@modern oasis top left of your obs window
@modern oasis obs.live doesnt support obs 24.0.1 yet, this could cause issues
so what do i do
@modern oasis you have to decide, use obs 24.0.1 vanilla or obs 23.2.1 with the obs.live plugin
sorry again how
@modern oasis uninstall obs.live from your current obs version ( in your installtion folder is an uninstaller ) or download obs.live again and install it in a seperat folder, so you have 23.2.1 with obs.live plugin
@raw pollen no, but its a nice advantage
hmmm, my subscriber alert for youtube is not working
@raw pollen Right click on the BrowserSource > Properties > Scroll down a bit > Refresh Cache of current page
@raw pollen try that
@raw pollen perfect
@versed tangle its working, thanks a lot
@raw pollen no problem 🙂
chat wont work with restream
I need help with my music widget. One song is playing twice at the same time.
@viscid hollow Make sure to ☑ “Shutdown source when not visible” for all browser sources (all OBS scenes). If using studio mode, uncheck “Swap Preview/Output scenes After Transitioning.” Also keep in mind that sound can play from any overlay loaded in the browser (editor or launched). https://i.imgur.com/FegZJQS.png https://i.imgur.com/yY0wcFl.png
okay so when I added the songs onto my stream overlay its showing the music video only. How can I make it to where it's only audio??
When I noticed it did that I deleted it and placed another widget on but I couldn't hear the music as well.
It only showed what was playing but there was no audio.
Nvm I figured it out!
Wait no it's still doing the echo thing whenever I head over obs and I configured the settings like you mentioned. Sorry for being annoying Im a first time streamer.
Question - did a few test streams to YT last night, watched the VOD's today and the videos even in 1080/60fps were pixelated. Does someone know if YT does further encoding/compression on the streams/vids and if there's a way to counter if so?
How to make the bot share My discord link when they type !discord Please help and thanks
Guys, I message you my my problem of choppy stream and recording on OBS since a recent update. I provided you with the details asked for, yet I've had no response. I've supposed to be doing a Ghost recon Stream tomorrow as part of Ubisoft's Delta Company. I cannot do it in it's current state. PLEASE HELP. Thanks
This is from when you sent the log on 8/31/19.
@still geode Make a custom command !discord for the command name & use your Discord Link for the response in https://streamelements.com/dashboard/bot-commands/custom-commands
@errant scaffold Thanks, not sure why this has suddenly happened though. OBS was working fine before. I'll see what I can do with that info, thanks
For sure 
Hi! I cannot delete my SE account as logging in with YT didn't import the email address and it is required to write down when removing... How can I remove my account?
@glass wraith If you go here: https://streamelements.com/dashboard on the top, there should a green bar asking you to update your email address.
Nothing there
Looking at your first screenshot, you've left the email field empty and that is also returning the error on the bottom right.
Look at the other one. No email address was imported as the YT account is a Brand Account.
Did you try and place an email in the closure form?
Yep. Wrong email address error
Then send in the required things from the field to reem@streamelements.com
his our CTO
Ok, thanks :)

Hi, I'm still getting choppy streams. Tried all of the things recommended and still no improvement. As you can see my system is running fine while streaming yet still choppy frame rates 😦 Please Help
@rapid remnant did you send in a obs log already?
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.
@versed tangle Yes, I tried to check all the details they sent but there is still no improvement.
problem
@versed tangle 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.
Both stream and recording is choppy frame rate. My GPU is at 50% while streaming and OBS is only using 1.5% CPU
i need help with streaming on pc to youtube
can't watch the video for some reason, but
@versed tangle what problem do you have exacly?
microphone problem
what did the obs log say?
@versed tangle no voice, chopped off, what problem exacly?
please say the problem in full so we can help faster
Spent hours going through Youtube changing settings, trying different resolutions no change. Said my GPU was being used. Not true as it was working fine before the update. Nothing on my PC has changed. I installed the newest version but still no luck.
when i speak my mic wont pick up my voice
@versed tangle have you selected your right microfon in your obs settings?
i think i have can we call so i can explain
@rapid remnant did you have the problem before the update and are you running the newest obs version now then?
@versed tangle it would be better if you explain it per chat in this room so everybody could help
im bad at spelling
@versed tangle use a translator 😄
dont matter
@versed tangle maybe you can show him where he can set his default mic
per screenshot, might be easy for Frosty
@versed tangle yep could do this
@versed tangle I was using restream io. Updated OBS to 23 and started getting the issue. Stopped streaming for a while. Came back recently and it was bad. Updated to version 24 still there. Changed stream stettings back to Youtube only,s till the same choppy frames. Uninstalled last night and tried again, same issue.
It's very odd
can someone call
okay so this is with obs studio then or also with the obs.live plug ins installed?
because otherwise I think it's something from obs studio
because in your screenshot I am not seeing you using obs.live tools
When I re-istalled, the chat and subscriber boxes beside the video pannel have gone
Did I download the wrong version? @versed tangle
I think you only installed the normal obs studios, but that doesnt mean wrong version
this helps us with the problem, because that states it has something to do with obs and then our friends over at the OBS server can help you out the best
For the best OBS support, please join their Official Discord @ discord.gg/obsproject
@versed tangle I see, thank you for your advice. I will contact them directly. 🙂
No worries, I hope they can help you out, do let us know if its fixed or not
@versed tangle I will indeed 🙂
I have the bot enabled and commands set up but for some reason when I stream and give them in the chat nothing happens
@cosmic crest next time you are live, go to the dashboard -part channel - join channel
If it doesnt join within 30 minutes poke us and we will poke the devs

Hi, is there any way to use streamelements to post a message to my Twitter account when my Youtube stream goes live? I notice this feature exists for Twitch.1
Streamlabs?
...fixed 🙂
Not at this time, no. Only Twitch for now.
Do you have any idea why this is? I've been looking for quite a while for a way to get any sort of Youtube live notifications to my twitter, be it through Zapier or other services, and it seems like none of them do this. I also tried looking through Google's live broadcast API and it seems like it requires you use an API key before you can even access if you're live...
Probably because YouTube's API is a hot mess on a good day. 
Bummer.
oooh, just found a button that says "do you want to be notified when Youtube notifications are available?", nice.
stream elements not able to import streamlab settings scenes etc.. anyone help?
the import tool can not import big video files or copywritten assets that belong to streamlabs
How do I get my stream elements to tell my viewers to donate
How do I set that up
You click on "Add new timer" and set the message to be repeated
and the chat lines and period for repetition
I'm sorry I just got it yesterday and there is so much stuff to learn is there a video that will help me set it up or a picture with a example on how people fill it out
And when I put socials in timer name and my socials in the message it will tell people to donate to me and subscribe?
Thats an example
timer name is for you to see which timer is what
You name a box full of apples with a marker "apples" to know that apples are in side
as for the contents - you have to place the text
as in "Hey, remember you can support me with a tip here: <link>"
Thank you you helped a ton
I need help. My "Activate chat" button is grayed out. I just made an account with my youtube channel.
no one there to help me ?
This is due to recent changes with G2A, I don't have enough information on it to give a direct answer just yet
How i can delet my Youtube account
@warm ivy do you mean to delete your whole account on YouTube itself?
Paytm Tipping is possible in Stream Elements ? in short i want to activate donation method other then Paypal !!! in my region people don't use Paypal !! so is is possible ?
PayTM is not available through the payment options we're able to provide.
Can you elaborate?
Anybody around? I'm looking for help with merging accounts. I logged in with YT and also logged in with Twitch but didn't realize I could consolidate them all into one account, so when I tried it said that the other channel had already been claimed. Is there any way to merge? Just starting out with Streamelements, so I thought maybe if I closed one account it would let me claim it on the other. Thanks in advance
@mortal valley you can DM me the JWT from both accounts please note which one you want to be the primary login
I just made my stream elements account by logging in with my youtube. However, my activate chat bot button is grayed out and not clickable

Youtube doesn't support that variable
Okay. Thanks 😀
Hiii I wanted to consolidate my Youtube and Twitch accounts under one account but I’m unable to close the Youtube account on SE. Any way for that to happen since I can’t link my Youtube account to the Twitch account as it’s already been claimed?
@median badger 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
Okay and? Doesn’t tell me how to close it 😂 I would add that the youtube account doesn’t have an email stated so I can’t close it anyway ‘cause leaving it blank in the close the account form doesn’t work
Cool
I just need the JWT tokens
@median badger You can find your JWT token on your account channels page ("Show Secrets" to reveal the token): https://streamelements.com/dashboard/account/channels
READ ME:
This is a private security token. Do NOT share this token here or other public places, only with a StreamElements staff member in private.
how can i check if alerts are working?
@versed tangle You can test Alerts via the bell on the lower right corner of the Overlay Editor. Simply go to your Dashboard -> My Overlays -> Pencil/edit button on the overlay. Make sure the "Show Emulated events on stream" option is on to see the alert in OBS/Xsplit https://streamable.com/h6qgy
Plz help i want to see in my chat when someone sub to me on YouTube help plz
have the bot join you channel and enable chat alerts in the modules section of the dashbaord
Yes
Why does no one watch me
@versed tangle what exactly is your question?
@supple narwhal Please follow our community rules:

huhu
@lime walrus You can cancel or suspend what you have passed on. I have already found a solution for my request (https://discordapp.com/channels/141203863863558144/415814031232991232/618749692335095818). See here: https://streamelements.com/dashboard/tipping/income-report
Thanks anyway!
Unfortunately no
im not getting sub alerts on stream or se dashborad...can i get help?
@fallen dune for the sub alert the user must share his sub in chat for the sub alert to trigger
on youtube the viewers privacy settings play a big role in if we can see it when it happens
