Where can I set Loyalty points?
as mentioned above, we dont have loyalty points for youtueb
might not want to post pictures with your email address showing
Can you advise the service where it is for YouTube?
Are there any other services where users can get a level while watching my stream on YouTube? please tell me, streamlabs chatbot also does not work (. (I use Google translate)
Loyalty points and watchtime doesn't work with Youtube, due to restrictions from YT's side.
In any applications? Earlier everything worked in stremlabs chatbot, but as I understand it, they recently broke something.
You would need to ask that StreamLabs.
were can I find obs log analyzer because it says The OBS Classic log file analyzer has been discontinued.
thx mate

Thank you for being patient.
My bank details are apparently invalid and I should contact support. But do not understand why since I had already made transactions and everything worked out.
hello!
i ned help with something. i dont know how to explain it but i give it a try
ive seen some youtubers yousing streamelements and they had a thing with coins
We don't have points(loyalty system) implemented for Youtrubers, due to limitations from YT.
If you see coins or something similar, its via another 3rd party website
we never had coins/points for YT

Hi, I'm trying to record for GTA 5 (FiveM) But whenever I record my video comes out like one frame every 14 seconds lmfao how do I fix this>?
When recording it says I get 15% cpu and 60 frames but in reality im getting nothing
i don't know what your specs are or what your problems might be, you could try to send a log here
@halcyon oxide Please provide a log from your last stream. To do this, in OBS go to Help > Log Files > Upload Last Log File and paste the link to the log file here.
I figured out that I have to cap out my games FPS because its taking too much cpu from my game
Any programs I can do that with?
no idea, probably the program that comes with your GPU
or even the ingame settings, depening on which game it is
so take a look there as well
why dosent my alertbox show up on stream?
did you add it to OBS?
yeah
do the alerts play there when you test them?
do you get a new event in the activity feed when you get a new sub?
i get a mail from youtube but the alert dosent show up
Hello. I have some questions about streamelements

How do I get loyalty to work? It doesn't even pop up for me and I've been trying for hours? I dont need a obs do I? I want it to be able to make mini games in chat and request queskip and so on
loyalty doesn't work for YT
bang bang bang sorry just smashin my head on a wall πππ
Can I make a points based thing? If so how? I see people on steam labs (a mate of mine) and stuff with mini games and so on (fun things) but elements is so easy to work ... even I have figured out alot and that's saying something when I gave up with nightbot about 6 months agoπππ
But when it comes to that stuff I've figured out 8 ball.... and then well broke that
YT's API is too restricted to work with the loyalty/points system of SE
so in theory I can set up all my important set up on SE now and later on down the line I could add another bot to work along side it for points? Or will it stop working if there is more than one bot?
Because I wouldn't want it to stop all the important stuff like set timers and responses
i for get the with and hight of the i need to type in for the overlay
@karmic robin 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
why dosent my alertbox work
in the editor? in obs? can you emulate the alerts? dose it not work fully? do only some parts work? does it only work sometimes? Β―_(γ)_/Β―
it works when i emulate them, but when some1 subscribes it dosent show up.
for all subs or only some?
all
should i click the link?
whats your youtube name
ZzeeezZ
do you have obs or your overlay open now?
yes
can you dm me a url link for one of your overlays with the alert widget on
k
follow the link from ruben above,
i subbed to you on a public account, i can see on youtube that the number changed but your overlay did not
so what is wrong
have you followed the guide above?
your account settings need to be public, and the accounts that sub to you need to be public
after you have these done you can test with soeones account
so it is my subscribers that have a private account
it still dosent work
why dose this not work for me
I am streaming right now and i dont have chat on stream,I have box of the chat but in the box is showing my live not my chat
I need help
Hi @proper tundra, 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.
@proper tundra What are you talking about?

Would you prefer it to be mrteexd-youtube?
Yes please
OBS -> settings -> advanced -> scroll down -> enable/disable hardware accel.

Hi @timber gale, 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.
my mic obs is not working from the webcam, how can I fix that?
which webcam?
if Logitech: it's probably switched off in their software, use the logitech software to turn it on
in Settings > Audio did you setup the webcam as mic/aux1 ?
i have a problem my alertbox wont show up whensomeone subscribes. i got help befor and it dident work
idk what to do
does it show up when you test it in the overlay editor and obs?
yeah
yeah this was from yesterday with the privacy settings thing right? i don't know anything more that we did yesterday but i will ask around if someone else from support knows what to do or if it's just YT being dumb
k thanks
i have turned on the 8ball module and the command !8ball (set to online) during stream...when someone uses the command...it doesnt work
and when i login to check it says that the command is diabled
disabled*
Hey do we have media widgets for youtube?
i could find it for my twitch account but not my youtube account, on streamelements.com
I think all the widgets in the new section aren't available on YT yet. I just started looking into YT streaming for fun and noticed the obvious differences in what was available right away vs twitch >_<
Yeah seems like it
just thought since its mostly youtube videos being used in media widgets, i thought youtube would have it xD
I know the feeling. Haha. I just assume it's YTs problem and not SE. Getting those great widgets over on YT would be terrific though. Do you have a loyalty system? I'm sure you could still work out some sort of media request for now if so! Good luck!
i do
or i did in twitch, but im gone transfer the same system to youtube
and thanks π
YT's API has a lot more restrictions so that sucks
we also don't have a loyalty system on YT because of that
same goes for the Media Request, it's just blocked by YT
Sad days but figures. Haha.
there is only paypal
what country are you from?
germany
where can i aktivate the feature?
i have more than 100 followers on youtube
@sage lantern
i dont have it @sage lantern
please refresh, you should see it now
oh there is it. thank you very much @tropic atlas and @sage lantern
hi, please help. can i still at !coins to my stream?
Pardon?
geen probleem
kan jij mij helpen?
in #π³π±οΈ±nederlands π
Why does full control not give my manager everything like shown in the video?
What do you mean?
The full control option that I gave my manager didn't give her all the features, and apparently I can't edit them.
The non-highlighted options aren't available on YouTube to begin with.
One more question, Can I set up Se Pay on for youtube?
Yes.
Alright. I didnt see it pop up on my dashboard, can I get the link to it please?
Refresh the page.
Seeing it now, thanks Nethyr!! Legend
hello sir i joined stream elements for loyalty system but website not showing loyalty system tab.

the overlays cannot be combined into 1 so it will be up to you on how you want to display them on your stream
connect your restream in obs settings > stream
at work, and almost going home

i am streaming right now but streamelements isnt activating on my chat
on the website it says "chat offline"
it doesnt reply to my name even though i have used the correct variable...
My chat bot isnt working for some reason. I added stream elements as a moderator but it still dosnt work
Go to the dashboard -> right side -> part channel -> join channel (https://streamelements.com/dashboard)
@brave solstice can u help me too please?
it is showing "${user}"....is there a way to reply to the user's name
please help
@sterile hollow also try part/join bot from your dashboard
i tried that
it showed up in my chat
but its not using the variable names for some reason
I added the bot but the commands still dont work
i mean its only using the variable names...it isnt actually replying to the person that triggers the command
can someone please help me?
@weak trellis you are live?
No
@weak trellis Bot only works if you're live.
Okay then why does it give the option to set the command when the stream is offline?
Just curious
when i say "!subs" it just says "We currently have ${channel.subs} Subscribers" instead of showing the actual subs
can anyone help me setup the variable names and how to use them on youtube?
You can find all the variables here: https://streamelements.com/dashboard/bot-commands/variables
ok understood
is there a way to setup a points or sort of loyalty thing on youtube?
no, youtube's API doesn't allow it at the moment
is there a future possibility of getting more modules on youtube?

hi, is there a way to do contests on YT? or is it only on Twitch]
Loyalty-related activities like Contests are not available on YouTube.
ah okay thanks, is there anyway to do just a poll with no betting or anything?
We don't have a generic poll option, no.
no worries, one more thing, I don't know if my chat widget is working, nothing is showing up when I write a message in my stream to test it
There is no chat widget for YouTube.
ah that'd be why, cool thanks
I am not getting any alerts in OBS , but am testing it in STREAMLABS OBS, it s working,!! can u help me @eager lily @everyone
dont try and @ everyone
its very selfish
have you added the overlay with an alert to obs?
haa bro @idle dune
Hello, Is there a loyalty system from stream elements for YouTube streamers?
no YT's API doesn't allow it at the moment
hello how to disconnect from twtich streamelements obs program and connect with youtube
How do I add streamelement loyalty for watchtime on youtube?
@weary portal Streamelements on top of OBS -> Logout -> login
oh thank god β€οΈ
@versed tangle the API is restricted, so there is no loyalty settings for youtube
How about checking watchtime?
Doesn't work either since that's tied to the Loyalty settings in SE.
When Im live my obs still says "waiting for your stream to go live"
there is a new button on youre youtueb live dashboard
you need to push the go live button
where is the button?
Yes im live on youtube and obs but it still says "waiting for your stream to go live"
are you logged in to streamelements in OBS?
yes
Settings > Stream : are you connected to your youtube their as well?
yes
try logging out of SE in obs and back in
It is still not showing
and when you restart obs?
but you don't want to because you are live
i don't know anything more than that as i don't stream to YT myself
Im doing an unlisted stream so pleople need the link to watch
It still is not showing chat
i was told it doesn't work on hidden streams but only on public streams
im actualing doing a pub stream rn and its not showing up
@waxen parcel you setup a broadcast from yt first and get a streamkey then go into obs settings -> stream and paste the streamkey
i have a question, can also youtube streamer get a loyality system. i need it for youtube
The loyalty points are not implemented for Youtube, due to limitations from Youtube's side
you would have to ask youtube, as they are the ones that restrict the use of it
oke but can i program that as a command? no, right.
Depending on how you make it.
and can you say how to do it?π
If your are a programmer - you would know the best way to do it, based on your skills, I assume
@everyone hello i need help , so when Im streaming, sometimes after 30min or 1h my stream disconnect and showing 0kbs it happend 3times to me , how to fix it?
@versed tangle no everyone, please
@versed tangle 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 1) Restart OBS
2) Start your stream/recording for about 30 seconds. Make sure you replicate any issues as best you can, which means having any games/apps open and captured, etc.
3) Stop your stream/recording.
4) Select Help > Log Files > Upload Current Log File. Copy the URL and paste the link here.
(Note: If you do not see an obsproject.com URL, you will need to update OBS Studio to version 22+)
Check the analysis of the log here Frig: https://h4ndy.eu/obslog?url=https%3A%2F%2Fobsproject.com%2Flogs%2Fj0uFl0-7RF2BQxdx
however it sounds to me that its something else, which streaming platform are you using?
@quiet pond youtube
yup
What bitrate i need to use to stream on youtube 720p60fps i have my upload speed about 30mb
I already have overlays in obslive how do I import them into streamelements? the button I need to puch seems to be inactivated
^handled in #helpdesk-selive
Hello guys
And how to remove YouTube from the streamer account, and connect to the recently created one which has an account mixer and twitch?
@umbral shale 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
how to turn up mic volume? I miss click something and now my mic is low and it is on max in audio mixer
@versed tangle For the best OBS support, please join their Official Discord @ discord.gg/obsproject
Alright, just tell me one thing for the confirmation! Will I still get copyright strikes on my channel if I use this wallpaper as my stream overlay?
Actually, the "Game Capture" source of my OBS will work upon this wallpaper by completely overlapping it.
My streamelements bot isnt working with commands in my yt chat
if i turn off my monitor, will my pc keep streaming?
yes ofc.
how do i turn my monitor off xD
Best to take a look at the manual of your monitor.
Upload speed is determined by your internet provider.
hi, should my stream elements be showing up in my chat youtube chat if im offline and type in something like !uptime (its a moderator on yt and the !uptime is turned on)
no, the stream has to be live and public for the bot to join
thanks @idle dune
1.95mb is quite low for streaming.
hey guys why i dont find in my dashboard the point for loyality system?
Loyalty is not available for YouTube.
Uff thats bad π¦ Okay thank you
my streamelements isnt working for alerts how do i fix
@mossy charm Please DM me your account ID from https://streamelements.com/dashboard/account/channels
done @fickle pagoda
@mossy charm You don't have any overlays.
i stream off of ps4
So you're referring to chat alerts?
yes
sub alerts, i live stream but i delete vods
when i stream the bot doesnt work for commands either
By default, privacy settings are set to hide subs. If they don't disable that, the sub information is never sent over.
@mossy charm 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.
alright thanks for the help
@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.
Hi @versed tangle, 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.
Can you provide a screenshot of what you're referring to?
Why do you have two streams running?
Two.
Guess which one it's watching? 
So now start only one.
And you'll be good.
You should be able to do so yourself. Start streaming, open your stream in the browser, type something in, and if it shows up in OBS.Live too, you're all set.
Did you have another question?
I don't see any live stream on your channel
make sure the stream is not private
i still don't see any live stream
now i see it
what does that mean? "People on it but I don't see participants"? Its like you are saying you are seeing ghosts.
besides an infinite loading for some reason i don't see anything wrong.
This is what i see
tbh i don't know why im on your stream. Explain what exactly is the issue please.
I don't even know what the issue is.
I cannot look at a stream right now.
Ok - are you trying to call out lurkers?
It might take a while for the viewer list to update
I just checked on your stream
participants are not updating for me
on YT it self.
This might be a YT issue and there is nothing we can do about it
@versed tangle Are you streaming on YT or Twitch?
Yt
Is the bot in your live stream?
@versed tangle 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.
the font in my streamlabs is different to my one in obs? why isnt it updating?
@deep coral 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.
im using obs studio^
ah okay, since you said streamlabs in the first message π
did you restart obs after the font change?
so it seems to only be some of the fonts?
just changed it again and it works with a different font
dunno what was up with the last one
but shud be alright cheers
what is the name of the font?
because there was someone in #helpdesk-twitch with a similar issue and putting the name like this: ''fontname'' helped with that
oh thanks will try that
Hi, does anyone know if there is something specific that has to be done to make the chatbot work for youtube? Do I need to add the streamelements youtube channel as a moderator?
Yes. There's a popup that states pretty much that after you click 'join bot' in the StreamElements Dashboard
ah, thanks. it has been a while since i first linked my youtube account just never used it until now. Thank you!
Can i have a watctime setting on youtube?
Currently Watchtime is not available for YouTube @iron canopy
No idea. Could be another program. As the StreamElements Watchtime setting is tied to the Loyalty Settings.
Which Loyalty Settings is not available on YouTube.
Ok. Thank for help
I wasn't thinking and added my YouTube channel to Streamelements. How do I remove it?
Removing an added account is not possible. You can only delete your whole StreamElements account, which will also delete all the connected accounts.
That's... bad.
I need help to get the youtube chat bot link
Please do not ping random staff members. Thank you.
You want to mod the StreamElements bot?
i want it in my channel but idk the link from youtube to add it in
The steps are shown in the Streamelements dashboard when you click 'Join bot'.
@spiral wren
Copy ready text:
In order for the Bot to function, it needs moderator access. To add StreamElements as a moderator, visit youtube.com/comment_management and paste "https://www.youtube.com/streamelements" into the Moderators list.
thank you
It thought I already had the bot in my channel but I swore I did not do anything so thank you so much
You guys are the best thing to happen to a new streamer. THANK YOU!!
Hello guys, where i can find loyalty settings? i can't find on my dashboard. thanks

Hello, I need urgent help, anyone online?
@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.
Whenever I stream, OBS randomly uploads random videos from the stream which are like 10 seconds long. As If I were to stop streaming for 10 seconds, start streaming and then upload that video 100 times.
does it happen every stream and is it always 10 seconds?
for some reason youtube subscribers are not showing in the feed on streamelements, and also therefore not activating alerts? has anyone had this happen?
They need to check their settings: Youtube subscription privacy settings: https://support.google.com/youtube/answer/7280190?hl=
Morning guys!!!
There`s a way to unlink my youtube account from OBE.Live? just choose to stream on Twitch?
@ocean prairie Streamelements on top of OBS -> Logout -> login
Nice!!! Thx so much! Help me a loot!! π
Apparently peoples subs arent set to private and it is still not doing an alert when they sub? Any other ideas? Still no activity in the feed on streamelements dashboard?
@smoky ember please check your activity feed
thanks! Internet just pooped? lol
@smoky ember did you see me in activity feed?
I will check it

ah all working now
thank you!
@versed tangle Laptops need extra setup to use Display Capture.
Due to the way laptops are designed, OBS must run on the Integrated GPU to use Display Capture. This process effectively disables Game Capture and Window Capture. If you would still like to use it, please read this guide and follow the directions for Display Capture: https://obsproject.com/wiki/Laptop-Troubleshooting#configure-your-system-for-display-capture
Please note: we recommend using Game Capture and Window Capture wherever possible. These capture methods get better performance in almost all cases.
@versed tangle For the best OBS support, please join their Official Discord @ discord.gg/obsproject
i did a steam but the streamelements bot did not appear in the chat, he is a moderator and I think he's set up correctly, any suggestions?
StreamElements dashboard is showing no data for my current stream, even though i have received subs today.
You have no stream activity
Stream activity will be shown here in real-time.
I have some questions regarding KappaGen am I able to speak to someone in voice chat about it? Or do I just pots my questions here for someone to hopefully answer?
@iron furnace 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 need to remove a youtube channel from my streamelements, how do I do that?
Once merged, channels cannot be unmerged.
so, what to do if the wrong account was added?
how do i add overlays
@tribal basin 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

why
Adding browser sources in normal OBS is the same as OBS.Live.
You'll need to ask Streamlabs.
ok
i want to disconnect my account
Do you have any others linked to this one? Twitch, mixer etc?
@true hinge 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
Not every feature is available for YouTube.
ahh thank you
Hello. Dumb question, but - will OBS.Live still capture chat activity on my youtube channel even if I am streaming through a third party? I am (for the short term) forced to point my OBS stream to ReStream.io, THEN point that to Youtube (until we can phase out my facebook live videos in the next few weeks). TOnight will be my first live broadcast and I am wondering if I will see youtube chat, notifications etc even though I am not going direct to youtube?
Activities come from YouTube, not from your streaming software.
YouTube doesn't care if you're streaming from an Atari. (Side note, if you pull that off, I'll personally ask for a link to your stream π )
OK so I will be fine then!! thank you. I can see people subscribing. Sorry for dumb question, new to streamelements but longtime OBS user.
We do a live radio show about tuning race cars
but are slowly working our way to a video live stream
THANK YOU FOR THE HELP!
@tender stone Please follow our community rules:
- No advertisement or stream promotion
- Respect ALL server members
- No NSFW/NSFL
Thank you
Hey there, so I imported an overlay from stream elements into my obs which also has my alerts. But, my alerts don't pop up on stream can anyone help me?
@late vigil 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 don't see that you've received any events that would trigger an alert.
is it possible to name your chatbot on the youtube platform as well bcs the option is not showing up for me?
Renaming the bot on Youtube is not possible unfortunately.
will this become available in the future?
No plans currently, due to limitations from Youtube.
aight thanks for the assist
ho edo i put the bot on to see how long people watcdh the streram
There is no watchtime for YT
StreamElements does not have a way to measure watchttime on YouTube.
I have a question about obs, so I have 2 scenes and I put hotkeys to change them but whn I enter any game and i press hotkey overlay wont change to another one, i need to pause game and go quick out of the game to change overlay with hotkey, anyone know how to fix that π
So I can change it when I am playing
@unkempt ridge 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 want to ask, stream element support other donation platforms than PayPal? Like, card paying, paysafe....
@unkempt ridge https://blog.streamelements.com/se-pay-more-tip-payment-options-with-lower-fees-4e619b3ef11e
@fickle pagoda Please tell me, is there support for Romania?
There is not.
Nothing was removed.
Just not added. We're still working on bringing it to other countries.
Sorry for bad language... I am just so upset because of this. Not one donation platform let me put my card if it's made in Romania

The person I mod for streams on YouTube and Mixer simultaneously. We already use MixItUp+Scotty on Mixer. We are looking to get a bot for chat commands and giveaways on YouTube. The stream is solid and doesn't require overlays or anything fancy. We just want chat commands to drop links and other info. Is this a good system for that? Is there a way for moderators to access the streamer's dashboard?
Commands: Yes
Giveaways: No
Access: Yes, if provided
Is there an app? Can you monitor chat without having YouTube pulled up?
No app. Chat can be monitored with OBS.Live.
Well, actually, now that I think about it, the StreamElements Live app could be used to monitor chat if it's in companion mode. I just always think of it for IRL streaming. 
He uses OBS to stream. Is OBS.Live a separate app? Can you access the StreamElements dashboards from the OBS.Live app? He streams from a PC while playing Xbox most of the time.
OBS.Live is a plugin for OBS Studio.
It's for monitoring chat and activity, some other tools, it's not the full dashboard from the site.
you can get the url of the youtube pop out chat and add it to a custom dock
I already use pop out chat. I was hoping for something like MixItUp. I can log in as a mod and not have to have the stream open to view chat.
More or less I will be dealing with it more than he will. I'm just looking for the right bot. I have to moderate on Mixer and YouTube at the same time. He was doing Facebook and Twitch too as well for a while.
Hey, i need help
I dont have the media request section
it's look like this
how can i fix this
there is no media request for youtube
So,

Look in the More section.

when i get the media request in YouTube
i wanna create content for depens on them
Media request is not available in YouTube.
ok tx
does anyone know why the chat widget wont work in my stream?
There is no chat widget for YouTube.
yes there is, its call your streams chat
For youtube?
yeah maybe its not called a widget but its under the engagment part
Screenshot?
that looks like Twitch widgets
its YT
Idk what you guys are looking at
but here is the overlay widgets for a Youtube account.
YT doesn't have contest or giveaways widgets.
well..it does on mine lol
Did you click on "create blank overlay" and then open the widgets?
if yes
save the overlay
exit the overlay editr
and then enter it again
theres a bug currently with new overlays created on other types of accounts such as mixer, youtube and facebook, where the widget list initially is the Twitch widgets.
we man
Why wonβt the bot talk in the live chat on youtuse?
Is your live stream public?
Yes
When someone tips or subs, it doesnβt say in chat
And my custom commands wonβt work
In order for the Bot to function, it needs moderator access. To add StreamElements as a moderator, visit youtube.com/comment_management and paste "https://www.youtube.com/streamelements" into the Moderators list.
Official youtube channel for StreamElements tutorials https://StreamElements.com
Yep
I did that too
When I start the stream it says βStreamElements bot running elementsSβ
In the chat
But doesnβt do anything else
What is your channel name?
Fearful Drift
Its not modded
you too
ROUX
Where do you want to log in?
my session got expired and there is no option to login
i want to login to my youtube
in obs
@dire copper Streamelements on top of OBS -> Logout -> login
I'm a bot, only here to send helpful messages because the helpers are lazy.
If you're referring to the widget, it isn't available for YouTube overlays
paypal?
Yes
Make 100% sure everything is setup right
could also be that the person that wants to donate is having issues with paypal
in both cases: it's a paypal issue, not a StreamElements issue
I checked everything couldn't find anything
then it's probably the other person
Not just one guy everyone is facing this same error i tried it myself got the same error
Thought it was PayPal's issue too
Thanks
i'll ask around to be sure
Alright, thanks
I am sorry if this is not the right place to ask this how do i alt tab without freezing up my webcam? I am fine with my game freezing but is there a way where my webcam won't freeze?

thank you very much rubensaurus!
Hi Can someone help me
I wanna do so the bot doesn't pop up when im streaming
Then ima find out myself but idk how
@eager lily I'm having issues with OBS.Live crashing every time I open it. This is something new. It happened a couple times yesterday, but now it won't even start.
@sharp silo A crash log is required to investigate the cause of your issue. Please upload the last crash log.
- In OBS, click the Help menu
- Select Crash Reports, and then Upload Last Crash Report
- Copy the URL, and paste it to the chat here.
Sadly, OBS won't open long enough for me to access those options. Even the crash window (for the clipboard) isn't accessible.
To find the OBS Studio crash logs, follow these steps:
- Press Win+R to open the Run dialog
- Type in: %APPDATA%\obs-studio\crashes and press Enter
- Upload the desired crash log, usually the latest, directly to this Discord channel by dragging and dropping the file into the chat window
Okay, it popped open long enough for me to get the crash reports. Here's the last crash TXT file.
@idle saffron @brave solstice @eager lily here's the URL (finally) https://obsproject.com/logs/QsZA1J-Jrt_eEm6Q
Hello, I have a problem. When I open Streamelements.live, I cannot test my Alert Box because there is no picture on the screen of Streamelements.live. The same is true for my subscription counter. Then I have to switch to OBS Studio, close it and then open Streamelements.live again, then it works. Is there any solution?
i just really want help seting up my donate for my stream
how to get free tags for your twitch
hello im trying to use streamelements on youtube and for some reason the alerts are not working, i connect with youtube i put the overlay url link in my obs and when someone subs to my youtube channel i get no alert but when i test the alerts on streamelements it works ? am i doing something wrong ?
where is the live dashboard
where is the youtube live dashboard
Share your videos with friends, family, and the world.
thankyou
My donation link sends people to a 404 error page?
You change your name recently @weak trellis ?
Does it show everything with a green check mark here? https://streamelements.com/dashboard/tipping-settings
Hello having an issue with obs live
when I click on start streaming the normal setup box is not popping up and chat is not working
Any way to make a basic YouTube subscriber goal at all? Website really confused me.
In the widgets section in the overlay editor is a subscruber goal you can add to your overlay.
i stream on twitch with OBS , but i also want to stream on youtube so do i need to make a new OBS profile to stream on youtube , because my alets are not working when someone subs to my youtube channel , my alerts work fine when i test them in streamelements but nothing works when someone subs to my youtube channel.
you need to log in on the SE dashboard with your youtube account
make your overlays and add them to obs
did that and my alerts work fine when i test them but nothing works when im live
They need to check their settings: Youtube subscription privacy settings: https://support.google.com/youtube/answer/7280190?hl=
so by turning this off when someone subs to my youtube channel they will see the alert now ?
they also need to make sure their account for subs is public, once these are done then yes
ok thank you
hi there i was just wondering why my obs freezes after i start up my game
@tired kindle 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.
Share your videos with friends, family, and the world.
if you are using the new beta then you have extra steps to take to get there
why is the stream so deleyed
@versed tangle 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.
?
it works fine on ps4 tho?
What is your channel name. Don't link it.
Do you have an overlay with an alert widget?
yess
The last tip I see that you received was 1 day ago
i tried to ADD streamlab bot in my yt and messed up everything
i got a dollar now today
ddint show up
Did you get an email?
yep
What does the email say?
what email?
ok
does it say anything specific on the transaction?
like if you need to accept it or something?
Does it say anywhere "Tip - Thanks for tipping!"?
no
Then the tip didn't go through us.
I see that your stream has 2 links - ours and SL's
check your streamlabs activity feed
Then we can't show the tip from SL's tipping link, because they are essentially our competitors
our alert widget is not linked to their link
Fix what?
Tips made via SL's tipping link are in no shape or form linked to our system.
just remove the SL link from your channel.
Heya mates, got a little question(pardon if it's been answered, couldn't find anything on google)
What subscribers do you get notified for via alerts?
Is it twitch subscribers or youtube? I'm trying to set up a youtube stream and was curious if it can actually track youtube subscriptions
if you are logged in to your youtube account in SE, it will track your YT subs
Sweet! Thank you.
Oh yeah, also. Is there a way for me to retrieve my bot link again? In OBS>StreamElements>Bot and Tipping setup it says I already have it set up and it doesn't give me the link again even though I didn't really set it up yet :P (or at least, it doesn't seem to work)
Alright, got it working. Thank you for help! :P
I'm trying to remove my Youtube and Facebook channels from my account. Do I select the channel from the drop down and go to "Close my account"? or will that close ALL of them?
you can't remove them unless you want to remove your whole SE account
Understood. What about switching or adding another? I linked them to personal accounts but now have branded/business accounts for either and getting errors.
you can add as much as you want afaik
and you can just switch by going to your dashboard and click the other account
Why is it when I click start stream this pops up and nothing happens?
gg
Thanks
How do i use the !points
You can't on YouTube
hi i dont know why but my alerts dont show up sometimes it buggs out
Which alerts?
Good evening everyone! First of all I would like to say that I find streamelents fantastic. Doubt: Why when I change or add a member alert message in the module section of the bot. Doesn't he accept to change anything? When will you fix this bug?
No. He does not accept any changes!
Heitor Borges
says in the upper right corner of the screen that the changes have been saved, but when I press F5 it goes back to the default message: "{user} just became a sponsor!"
Is it because I didn't release the membership option?
Release?
I just know it's super bugged, I change or add the message and it bugs back to the default
I've opened a ticket to have it looked into. Unfortunately, an immediate solution cannot be provided.
Understand. Well I hope one day I can fix this bug.
Iβm looking for a good OBS for PlayStation 4 to Facebook
Pardon?
So I can live stream
well theres only 1 good obs, which is obs
but unless youre going to use a capture card or remote play to get your playstation on your pc and stream from that,
you cant really use it
Where can I get a capture card
hi i am still having trouble witht my stream alerts going off for donations
@magic ridge You have the Browser Source Overlay in OBS? Does it work when running test alerts?
ye
Trying clearing the Cache in the Browser Source Properties.
how do i change my username/link
what username, what link?
Hey sorry to bother everyone, and I already asked this question but the link did not work, anyway I was wondering what to do if your obs screen is all black, and you have no audio?
My device is a laptop too, just in case you need that
@mighty relic 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
Assuming that is the link they gave you earlier?
That may fix your issue of the black screen.
Audio will be different, come back after trying that.
alright
are theme alerts platform specific or will they work across twitch and youtube?
is there an easy way to get youtube chat to appear on-screen?
@full pendant you can display 'super chats' on stream, but currently not your regular chat.
alright thanks
um
do you know if that is going to be a feature soon?
how do i setup my pc to my fortntie for my youtube on pc
@full pendant We generally do not comment on our roadmap, as priorities can and do change.
however
@full pendant 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.
thanks lol, i appreciate your time @plain kiln

You posted 2 minutes ago & I am a volunteer. I will answer your question as soon as I can, or someone else may get to it before me.

Can someone help me how to add timer & overlay to my YouTube stream using obs?

@versed tangle Streamelements on top of OBS -> Logout -> login
20 second delay is normal, imho
can i get my settings for this
settings for what?
@royal sleet 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.
Hello! Can you please help me with the question - I have 2 channels connected to StreamElements, but I want to delete one of them - how can I do that? Thanks in advance!
Once merged, channels cannot be unmerged without completely deleting the account and all connected channels. So you'd lose both of them.
Hello i have a question , When i streaming a game my webcam starting to go blurry or pixelated , how to fix that?
@fickle pagoda thanks! Can I hide it or deactivate so StreamElements won't see it and work for that channel?
You can of course tell the bot to part from the channel from the dashboard.
Okay, one more thing - when I want to rename a command and save it - an error appears "Could not save some changes" - even if I update the page and reenter the page...
@versed tangle 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.
@true oxide Can you screenshot that error?
Here, sorry it's in Russian(
Can you tell smth - why it occurs?
It only appears for moderator or supermoderator commands - it's "give points" for viewer
What are you trying to change in it?
only name
To what?
from russian back to english
Anyone have another recommendation of what platforms to make yt vids on besides obs
@mighty relic you will have to google that. This chanbel us for help related to our tools and features.
The chat in OBS.Live is using wrong account? Can that be changed? (Tried to logging out and logging in again with the proper account but it's sill using the wrong one)
Is this consistent every time?
I am not sure what you meant by it. But it does that in SE chat dock and idk how to change that
Everytime you open OBS and login to the channel or try to logout and login, does it always happen?
Well, it always happens. But everything else works fine, it's just the chat is using the main account instead of the second account, that could be the yt's thing
Unfortunately, I don't have a workaround but I have asked QA to take a look at this
Okay
Hi, does the activity feed in OBS.Live work with YouTube?
Yes
Tried a stream last night which seemed to work mostly fine, but neither the chat nor activity feed was working for me so I missed the name of the person subscribing
@knotty island Streamelements on top of OBS -> Logout -> login
aha! That's done it, thank you
Does the livestream need to be launched from OBS.Live from now on? Or can I launch it from in YouTube itself?
You should be able to start normally from OBS.Live
what about from YouTube? It still work from there as well?
hi guys, i am having problems with my obs if anyone wants to help
i have tried a lot of solutions, and it might be an obvious one i am missing, but i cannot for the life of me figure out why my desktop/game audio is not being detected while i record or stream
Laptop?
desktop
Run obs as admin
now what?
@open vapor 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.
Run obs as admin @open vapor
i am fine, i think i got it to work now, i don't know how i fixed it but whatever lol
Can I get some assistance please?
Theres a different song playing in the background when my alert comes up and I don't remember adding it in. It's playing over my own uploaded sound.
Oh nevermind, my apologies I found out where it was
All good π
Hey, I have some zero line timers on a 24/7 stream, but the bot doesnβt look to be working. Parted and rejoined the channel a few times this morning, but itβs been hours and still no timers firing. (It did report joining the chat as a mod each time I joined it.)
We did re-work timers recently so perhaps make sure they're set up how you want them
The settings look right to me. Anything changed in the last 24 hours?
Nope
Any suggestions to jiggle the handle?
Hi
Hey i'm trying to set up my tipping, but I don't have a paypal I don't want to make one if I don't have to, so is there another way to setup tipping?
I have trouble with my stream mobile viewers watch like 1-2 minutes then the stream freezes and when they refresh it continues normaly and then in 1-2 minutes again
pc users have no problems
@eager star There is a credit card payment method called SE.Pay, if you're 18+, have a bank account in one of the supported countries and have at least 100 YT subs we can give you access to it. If not, PayPal would be our recommendation
@solar solar This won't be a StreamElements issue so we're somewhat limited in the support we can give you here. My advice would be to check that you've not set your bitrate too high. There's actually quite a lot of posts online about this and all of them seem to suggest bitrate
@eager star Perfect, I'll DM you if that's alright, just going to ask you for an account ID so I can give the access to the correct account π
@robust mango This worked for me for very long time more than a year like this so my bitrate is 6000 and it never made any problems
Ok I need some help. In regards to SE Pay, I have had three viewers so far which have claimed to try donating by card but no cards have been accepted. Anyone know why this may be?
@quiet stone Please contact us via email for support with SE.Pay. You can use our contact form here: https://streamelements.com/contact Thank you
I use the subscriber alerts from Youtube, but I wanted to create a hype cup using the stream likes when I noticed there is no such option.Β
Am I missing something? If not I think like events would be very useful.Β
Thanks!
