Im having massive delays on the camera, anyone knows how to fix that? ๐
As in audio is not synced? See if you need to use this option for your mic/aux audio track -> cogwheel -> properties -> use device timestamps
why when someone subscribes dose it not show the alert but the next day it is in my activity feed
@viral oriole pinned messages.
where are they
hey guys i wanted to ask why my sub count is stuck at 1400 but my actual sub count is at
1800
its stuck at the number it was when i last streamed
with the {count} widget
Yes. In such cases try to log out and log back in into StreamElements.
And refresh the session (in the activity feed tab)
Is there a way to test the stream chat tool without starting a public stream cause it doesn't seem to recognize my tests in a private/unlisted stream
the bot only can join to live and public streams
Ah okay, I wish there was a way to simulate chat messages like you're able to do with donations and memberships
i need help
@sinful trench 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.
Does anyone know if you can add the slot machine bot to the youtube chat bot?
The YouTube bot isn't able to use those modules.
Can you use media or song donations using stream elements?
there is no media request for YT
So twitch has it ? @tardy cloud
yes
Can you set it up so there are paid media requests ? @tardy cloud
YT doesn't have media request
I mean on twitch
well you're on the wrong helpdesk channel, let's move to #helpdesk-twitch 
Oh I am dumb thank you lol
hello, i stream through playstation and i have activated stream elements tipping feature, i had been tipped yet the message did not pop up
i just want the message to pop up on live chat
Have you enable the module through the streamelements dashboard?
Okay, check out these steps
@mystic bone 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.
- Go to https://studio.youtube.com/, click on Settings > Community and add https://youtube.com/c/streamelements or https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCjerlCIbLPQwSnYlClkjDXg as a Moderator.
- When live, be sure to look at Live chat instead of Top chat, as Top chat will hide the bot messages.
these all are activated
i will check again if i was streaming same time as the donation, might be a silly mistake on my end
Okay!
yeah i dont think i got the message, if it happens again i will let you know
how about the, thank you for subscribing message ?
its enabled but doesnt pop up on live chat either
There is a pinned message on this channel regarding YouTube, so with that you should expect delays.
alright ty @strong surge
Hello what to do when my alerts on subscriber work only really really sometime

Good Morning, dont know where to ask this but i hope its ok. How do i activate the loyalty system on Streamelements? I do not see it.
there is no loyalty for youtube
๐ฎ what! mannn ๐ฆ Thank you for your help. it will work for Twitch though?
Yes ๐
ok Thank you for your help ๐
hello!
Hello! I have a problem with Obs, unfortunately the alerts for subscribers, donations do not work ... What to do? Thanks
Good afternoon, I'm doing an overlay with information on the amount of followers on Twitch and amount of Subscribers on Youtube, each in a separate account, twitch correctly informs the number of followers, the youtube only informs 0, can solve this?
thank you right now
Can you log out and log back in with Youtube? And also reset the session in the activity feed tab?
This data is sent to us by the platform, we can't really do much here outside of relogging and pulling it again.
thanks for the reply. I redid the settings of my channel on youtube, I checked and unchecked the option to hide the subscribers and now it's working, thank you very much.
Hi i stream on YouTube and i have a problem does anyone know why my alerts aren't showing when someone subscribes donates etc? Thank you!
Have you turn the alerts on in StreamElements?
Check pinned messages for subscriber notifications
ooow okay thank you
hello can someone help me move my alerts from streamelements to streamelements(other account)
Have you tried to link the accounts together here?
https://streamelements.com/dashboard/account/channels
it says channel already claimed
Then we need to merge them together. You can DM me (sensitive information)
once we do it, you will be able to transfer overlays between them
hello everyone, i need help figuring out why streamelements does not detect youtube members. youtube chat shows that there was a new member but it seems that stream elements doesn't even detect that someone joined, thus the alert didn't work. thanks.
Youtube has an API delay of 4 hours right now. That should not affect members.
Do they show up after the stream in the activity feed or not at all?
It doesn't show up at all
I would suggest logging out and logging back in into StreamElements
if you use OBS.Live - also do the same there
ill try that, also i use obs streamlabs
We do not support Streamlabs, but in that case it is not related.
logged out and back in, members still not showing up. also i think 4 hours have passed since the memberships were done
yeah streamlabs should not impact it because its a web source from streamelements right?
Yep
But there were some issues with getting Events from Youtube
We are investigating
you think this is somehow related to the same thing that is going on woth subscribers?
with*
okay, thank you very much for the help and the information, hope they find the problem soon 
Yep hopefully
Does StreamElements have issues with connecting to YouTube or am I doing something wrong?
None of my alerts come trough
sub alerts are delayed by at least 4 hours thanks to youtube
nothing we can do about that
Oops that sucks.
Hi - I need to merge my Youtube and Twitch on streamelements. I accidentally claimed my youtube separately
@arctic nacelle Account Merging - Please note:
- Merging accounts only allows faster ways to switch between accounts
- Merging accounts does not allow data sharing between accounts - different streaming platforms, different type of events
- Merging accounts allows duplicating/sharing overlays between the accounts
If you understand the limitations of merging and want to proceed, please find the JWT tokens (!jwt) from both accounts you want to merge and you will be directed to DM them to a staff member
@arctic nacelle 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.
DM both tokens to the lovely @tardy cloud and he will merge them for you ๐
Thank you!
anyone here who can help??? lol
hi i accidentally deleted the stream elements chatbot channel url from my youtube community mod list @@

Doing a private live on YT and I cannot get Streamelements bot into chat
StreamElements bot can only join public live session
Ah! Thanks!
hello i've done everything and my alerts boxs don't work.
Any tips?\
okay can somebody help me plssss?????
sub alerts are delayed by at least 4 hours because of youtube
see pinned messages
I chose to sign up with youtube, Ive set my elgato up and its looking lovely although I wanted to stream on multiple platforms, youtube and twitch. I downloaded restream, i connected restream to my OBS but I click 'start streaming' and it brings a pop up to start streaming on youtube. I cant even stream on youtube for 24 hours as ive literally just made my streaming account earlier today? somebody help me please omg its hurting haha
should i restart? like even though i signed up with youtube restream should still work ye? or is it because i have to wait the 24 hours, maybe restream will only allow me to stream twitch if youtube is running also ? someone help pleaseeeeee
sounds to me it's because of the YT 24h rule
but none of this has anything to do with StreamElements so we can't really help a lot here
might want to ask Restream or Youtube themselves
okay ty!
@versed tangle https://streamelements.com/dashboard/tipping-settings > Tipping Settings > Tip Panel Setup
Hello, is it possible to import YT subscriber list from YT? I just created account and see that sub list is empy. I would like to show on my stream latest subsriber but this box is emptyi Fiels was addad as labels -> subscribers -> latest subscriber. I have few subscribers on my channel but i can't see anyone on streamelements. Thank you for your help ๐
So the account won't pull an old list, and will only keep up from the moment you added it. However, you can manually adjust your "latest" labels here: https://streamelements.com/dashboard/session
Ok so im not sure if this is the right place to ask this, but how do I make it so ppl can tip using Credit/Debit and not just PayPal? Right now it only lets ppl use PayPal to tip.
I need active chat bot pls help me

How do i go live
Thank you for help, but if i add manually Will it replace after next subscription automatically?
Why my stream activity is showing me offline when I am going live? and live chat is also unavailable.
Are you in a public stream?
no I was in private or unlisted then. My main prob is when I go public streaming on youtube the subscriber activity dont update in the alert box so I was trying to see in private and unlisted. Is that why streamelements account cant see me as online?
oh my bad I had no idea. Thanks alot. So in private or unlisted mode chat box won't work either?
No idea as I don't use YouTube but wouldn't be surprised if that's the case.
I see
does this means people can or can't send links?
subs can send links
so if i change it like this
everyone can send links?
(i want it so no one can send links)
i cant find it
Ok so im not sure if this is the right place to ask this, but how do I make it so ppl can tip using Credit/Debit and not just PayPal? Right now it only lets ppl use PayPal to tip
@royal dagger You don't have enough subs.

You don't. That's a media request command which is not available for YouTube.
Correct
What can we enable for viewers in youtube (except 8ball)
What you see is what you get.
No.
Hi when I stream The quality goes down on my stream anyone know to fix it
goes down in youtube or obs.live?
if in youtube then it should be using upload defaults other then that idk

how to reset every counter (even if i dont have the names) (without !editcounter)
better internet, better PC specs, also a lot of variables, u should troubleshoot if is it related to internet or pc power. U can check these using the stats window located in View > Docks
anybody who can help me???
So i set my elgato up last night thropugh xbox and i was able to record my party chat aswell as my own voice so i know it works. although i started recording later after messing around with a few settings and i can only record my partys chat and not my own, why is this? How can i record both mine and my parties chat without an external microphone plugged in cause i cba to do that
Staff? any answer?
can you give me your account id?
@upbeat narwhal Please provide your account ID found at the top of this page: https://streamelements.com/dashboard/account/channels This ID is public info and safe to share here.
oh sorry, its just easier to investigate if you share it
oki
I'll ask around and get back to you
ok thanks
@upbeat narwhal so, there is no current way of resetting counters all at once nor being able to see which counters you are using. However, this is an upcoming feature but I can't give an ETA on when it will be live. The only thing you can do for now is reset the counters manually.
ok cant wait for that
ima trying make something like a log
thanks for telling me
Hey guys, I had my first livestream on youtube today but you know how it is, not everything worked right from the beginning.
I made with streamelements my alerts and also that it should name the follower or last donation. When I got my first donation it didnt update on my stream, there was just 0โฌ running through my screen.
When I emulated it in my setting on streamelements it updated without any problems.
You have some advice ? Hope I could make my problem clear enough ๐
Regards
@versed tangle if a viewer tipped through PayPal but no information appears in your StreamElements account, this generally means PayPal has held the tip for verification. Until PayPal clears the tip and sends back a confirmation to your StreamElements account, no information will appear there and no alert will play, as that confirmation is the only way for us to be aware of a successful transaction. If you believe there may be an issue with the transaction, you'll need to contact PayPal support as StreamElements is only a passthrough service and never actually gets involved with the transaction or touches the money
Thanks, but how can I fix this or where do I have to look ?
you'd have to check your paypal account, I don't know if it's possible to do something about that
yeah, the money is on my paypal account, I checked that, everything worked, just not the showing in the stream ๐ฆ
or wait is getting money via streamelements the "purchase" alert ? If so I found my mistake because I just made "member" and "superchat" alerts...
It'd be a tip alert.
oh wow -.- thanks, sorry for being a noob
I made a tip alert, but had it not activated
The tip must be sent through your StreamElements tipping page. Any other page won't trigger an alert.
okay, I'll try it
my youtube chat overlay isn't working, i made it with the website logged into my youtube, and i'm correctly on youtube in OBS, the only thing i can think of is its because i schedule it through YouTube.Live instead of obs does anyone know how i can get this working?
ok
If i livestream on youtube can i add a overlay then
@fluid bison Consoles do not have native support for overlays. You would need a capture card, PS4 remote play or Xbox companion app and a PC with OBS in order to have overlays over your console gameplay.
We have a blog post about how to set up console streaming with our essential tools: https://blog.streamelements.com/how-to-stream-on-console-7b620b1c46c3
So I accidentally registered a second StreamElements account with my Youtube rather than connecting it to my Twitch. Could I get some help merging my two accounts? Preferably my Youtube into my Twitch, as I've got overlays and whatnot saved in there, if that makes a difference.
@timber eagle Account Merging - Please note:

Please DM me your JWT tokens, clearly labeling which is which.
Your channels have been merged.
Many thanks!
how do i get a activity feed for youtube? When I copy the url from streamelemnts.com to my obs.live it auto goes to twitch and not YT
@quasi crag StreamElements menu, on top of OBS > Logout > Login
Does this program have the ability to show youtube and twitch notifications at the same time? I plan on streaming to both platforms and want notifications from both
No. They're entirely separate of another.
how would one go about getting notifications for youtube? I have the activity feed for twitch already on my OBS
You'd have to popout the feed from the website as there's no nice way to have both in OBS.
from the stream elements website?
Yes
thanks
hi, my streamelements activity feed does not show actual subscribers, today 13 people have subscribed and are not appearing in the activity feed
im stream in youtube
Pinned messages.
ty
when can they fix this? Thanks
I have a streamdeck and instaled the Stream elements plugin what makes the emty cup and KAPPAGE Button pls answer me with @sonic ice thx
Hey everyone. Is it possible with SE to set it up so that when someone comes into the chat and says either Hi or Hello in their sentence, that the bot auto replies with a welcome message back? All I can see when I try to set up a new command, is that it has to have an exclamation point on it and not just a single keyword. Any help would be great thanks
not recommended, as everytime someone say hi it will spam the bot return welcome. There isn't a way to it say only one time per user

what to do in OBS if your alerts are not working
what to do in OBS if your alerts are not working
First: less spamming will get you a better reply ๐
Second: need more details, what is not working, what was tested etc?
In the chat window - click on the settings/dashboard button and start the stream there.
YT sometimes fails to detect a live feed from OBS
@versed tangle 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.
Like the bot said, we can't troubleshoot Streamlabs tools.
ok
so how do i get alirts on OBS live
for streaming to youtube
like if some subscribes
@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 check Shutdown source when not visible. https://youtu.be/KDvLynUqXI4
alirts not overlay
alerts are on your overlay
?
no overlay = no alerts
you have an alertbox widget on your overlay that plays the alerts
What where send screenshot
how do i get overlays

@versed tangle You can test alerts via the Emulate bell on the lower left side of the Overlay Editor. Simply go to your Dashboard > My Overlays > pencil/edit button on the overlay. Make sure the Preview LIVE on stream option is on to see the alert in OBS/XSplit** https://streamable.com/vtulg9

We do not provide support for Streamlabs, we are StreamElements.
You have a bunch of information above, including video tutorials how to do exactly that.
And one more video^
thx ruben
How can u make a message with Stream elements like hello or something that stream elements puts ?
Iโm probably making 0 sense
chat commands
Oh ok thanks
remember that the bot on YT only works when you are live in a public stream
quick ques: cant find stream store on streamelements site (logged in via yt) ... i need to set up music commands ๐ #help
๐ฆ thanks ..is it gonna add in future ?? @main vector
If you mean music/media request: No. That's a hard no.
Stream store is based on loyalty and I can't remember the exact stance regarding that.
hello is there any option to unnlink my youtube account from the streamelements account
@regal oriole There is no easy way to unlink 2 owner-type accounts from each other. The only way is to make a closure request from here: https://streamelements.com/dashboard/account/security
WARNING: In submitting a closure request, all linked channels within the account will be deleted and you will lose all associated data. This includes overlays, custom commands, timers and past data (tips, subs, etc). You can still reconnect with the deleted account, but you are essentially starting fresh.
@regal oriole Email us at support@streamelements.com with this filled out:
Email:
Account ID:
JWT Token:
Reason for closure:
Error when using the closure:```
Doesn't matter.
ok i messaged support@streamelements.com
fuck i messaged the mail at wrong account
oh shit
what should i dooo now
I put the information from my twitch account and not from youtube ...
So send another email saying as much, and provide the correct info?
We're fast but we're not that fast.
ok thx i mailed an another mail
Got a question...so I'm setting up Streamelements to livestream to YouTube. On Twitch, I used to be able to have a dockable window for chat...when I try to do that for YouTube, I get a message that the browser or app may not be secure.
I do not believe Youtube has a chat dock to use, which might be why you get that error.
Oh, okay
Actually, it looks like there might be one. I think it only shows up when you are live though, my bad.
I have a dockable window and I could see some chat that I put in there (from the Youtube page) but I have to sign in that window in order to chat and that's when I get a message that I couldn't be signed in and that this browser or app may not be secure
Can you send a screenshot?
Try closing that window, and try using the chat dock from within the StreamElements tab in OBS. The default OBS one might be giving off that error.
That window doesn't seem to be connected to my livestream chat. When I type something there, it doesn't show up in my livestream
Try logging out of the StreamElements side of OBS, then back in with your YouTube account
@indigo finch StreamElements menu, on top of OBS > Logout > Login
I get the same message. When I went live, the chat window asked me to sign in and when I did, I get the window saying the browser or app may not be secure
Just to be sure, when you logged out and logged back in, you went to the StreamElements chat dock instead of the default one, correct?
correct
I can see what others say..but I can't type anything in the box...I have to sign in and that's when the error happens
I mean it's better than what I had before, but I know on Twitch, I could type in the chat box and it would show up in the chat on my live stream.
@indigo finch Please provide your account ID found at the top of this page: https://streamelements.com/dashboard/account/channels This ID is public info and safe to share here.

I'm going to check on this internally, and we will get back to you on why this is happening.
I signed in with my youtube and nothing comes through can we merge it with my twitch streamelements instead
Im not receiving notification for my youtube stream. The bot is confirmed connected but when a i get a new sub nothing shows in the activity feed or alert notification, any ideas?
ahh so youtubes fault.. cool
is that also happening to other websites? (such as streamlabs)
Uhmm anyone?
This is a known issue with Youtube permission for embedded items and security. We are working on it, there is no fix right now.
So basically, I can't livestream on my yt channel yet?
You can. Only the login fails, but the livestream will work.
Oh ok! Glad to hear that
hello everyone, i have a problem where streamelements doesn't detect that a member has joined on youtube, so the alert doesn't go off, ive already written here and i was told to try to log out an back in, it didnt help, also i was told that this is the youtube api taking a long time but youtube shows the members and streamelements doesnt show them, also it works for other streamers (from my country), any ideas guys?. thanks in advance.
@trim timber member or sub? Sub is explained in pinned messages.
members, not subs
Please provide your account ID found at the top of this page: https://streamelements.com/dashboard/account/channels This ID is public info and safe to share here.

This looks like a bug, will go to the developers
I run a YT channel where I post videos when I'm talking on Skype with several people at once. It looks very unattractive, as you can see these "gaps" between people on Skype and I would like to know how individual windows of people in a conversation can be assigned to an overley
I know it's possible, I'm just looking for some simple way
OK, thank you
Hello ๐ Is there any way to integrate the Youtube chat into the Overlays?
There is but it's broken atm iirc.
Ok, thank you. I'll try using a browser crop then.
Hey is there a way to show the old chat again? This is way less user friendly to me, but I feel like there's a work around. Maybe going back to Default or Tested versions of OBS.LIVE? (I'm using BETA version now)
any idea if they're going to fix this 4 hour delay?
Just wondering if they've said anything about it?
Last word was basically "this is how things are now."
thanks @fickle pagoda
not sure which chan to post this in, but I need to merge my YT and Twitch accounts within Streamelements.

Just a general question... I see some saying you need 1000 subs for super chat, but you need 4000 to join partner program. Are these two different things?
thank you @narrow locust - if I close one of the accounts would I be able to claim service on the other? For example close the account that has claimed my YT chan... and then claim it on the account is linked to my Twitch chan?
yes, once you close the account you can link it to the new channel
ok that might be easier
since I dont' have anything setup on the account currenlty linked to YT.
cool, let us know if you need anything else ๐

Hello
can anyone please help me
On streamlabs when i stream my quality is at 1080p but it still trash
Samething with obs
@here
We provide support for StreamElement/OBS.Live, not Streamlabs
I don't know if someone answered you, buy you get partner when you get 1000 subscribers and 4000 watch hours I'm pretty sure that's also when you get the superchat
In the country where he lives itโs 4K subs ๐ฆ
2 pc gaming setup fixes all those issues
Holy.. Really? ๐
Sorry I thought it's the same for everyone
Is it possible to import my commands from my Twitch channel login to my YT Channel within SE?
not possible, you would have to re-create your commands for your YT account
question, my alerts arent showing up, when i click emulate on the editor for stream elements it works but when streaming, it doesnt (pls @ me if u respond so i can see it. thanks ๐ )
Which type of alerts?
sub for yt alerts
Check pinned message
yea but how do i fix lol
There is nothing to fix. Its Youtube's decision.
Today I streamed twice in morning in youtube with streamelements obs. but, streamelements website did not detect that i'm live and it was still offline. streamelements bot also didnot work. my youtube still streams the last screen even after i stopped streaming in obs. I have to manually go and end stream in my youtube channel. Is there any solution for this problem?
Are you streaming a private/unlisted stream?
unlisted
When streaming unlisted, we don't get any indication from Youtube that you are live.
that is by design from YT
On the YT dashboard
From what I see, your last stream was 15 hours ago
So did the session reset 15 hours ago, after the stream ended
but i have done two streams today
So in those 15 hours from last stream, you've streamed 2 more times?
If yes, then those streams were unlisted/private
or you streamed somewhere else
yes those video are processing to be uploaded. but the live should be detected right
only after closing my live the videos will be processed to get uploaded
u can see that in past live streams in my channel
Right, I see them on the main page of the channel.
I would advise right now to logout from our dashboard and login again, so that we get a more accurate token from YT
If you've logged out and logged back in as instructed, then keep an eye on the next stream.
That being said, the live indicator has nothing to do with receiving events in general from Youtube, as apparent by this:
Due to changes by Youtube there can be a delay up to 4 hours with subscriber notifications. This is the new intended way for receiving events from Youtube by their design.
Is there any news on yt changing its sub feed prob... Coz literally i put a lot of time trying to make alerts and overlays and they r useless...
Ok nvm.......
yeah I too got more than 8 subs in two days. I didn't get any alerts
That is only YT to blame as they might not have sent the events entirely, even after the delay.
Nothing we can do about that
The streamelements bot also didn't start in my live stream. I disconnected and reconncected it twice.
The bot will only join once we get the Ok sign from YT that you are live.
okay then, only if it detects that I'm live in streamelements , then the bot starts working.
i have un moded the stream elmants bot on youtube because it was anoying me and now i want it back how would i do that
@viral oriole 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.
- Go to https://studio.youtube.com/, click on Settings > Community and add https://youtube.com/c/streamelements or https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCjerlCIbLPQwSnYlClkjDXg as a Moderator.
- When live, be sure to look at Live chat instead of Top chat, as Top chat will hide the bot messages.
hello how can I setup command list on web in streamelements website
Hello, As I told earlier, The same issue happened now when i started streaming.
streamelements did not detect my live
streamelements bot also didn't work
Is there a way to make the username and text in the yt stream chat tool different colors like on twitch?
In my youtube chanel, streamelememts bot is not working

okay
And make sure you have enabled the bot by clicking on the right side join channel https://streamelements.com/dashboard
hello I would like to know why when I test the streamelements alerts, it works, but when there are real subscriptions it no longer works
Check the last pinned message
Hey is there a way to show the old chat again? This is way less user friendly to me, but I feel like there's a work around. Maybe going back to Default or Tested versions of OBS.LIVE? (I'm using BETA version now)
ALSO: is anyone getting this message a lot in OBS? (The audio stream's current bitrate (0) is lower than the recommended bitrate. We recommend that you use an audio stream bitrate of 128 Kbps.)
it just pops up all the time and my settings are fine and my audio seems to working fine
hey there, im an aspiring content creator and streamer, i was looking for help with bringing my overlays over to obs... also looking for help streaming from xbox one to laptop.. anything will help
@hard crown 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 check Shutdown source when not visible. https://youtu.be/KDvLynUqXI4
can i edit the over lay and placement in obs or do i have to go back to SE everytime?
@hard crown yes, you need to edit the overlays on the web editor
okay im in the editor right now, how do i move my socials together and not one by one
@hard crown create a group and then you will be able to move any widget together
game changer
its on youtube not obs
and that shows because youtube cant detect any audio/voice from obs
(it mostly happen then someone doesn't talk)
hye do any one know how to add a another accout to obs stream elemnts
I've signed in and connected to ypjtube but whenever i try and go live on youtube, it says to connect my streaming software when i have already signed in witj youtube and given permission for streamelements to manage my account
What do i do?
So what is the issue, your OBS is connected but the YT Live dashboard is not showing the stream?
Then try to start from the Live settings in the chat field in OBS.Live if you use that - this is where you start.
I've tried that but YT still doesn't show the stream content
Try a few times, the YT live dashboard is a bit tricky to get started.
Ok. If that doesnt work, what should I do?
There is not much what we can do here. If the YT Live dashboard does not detect the livestream, you need to contact them.
Alternative - switch from the main to the backup ingest server for YT
they only have 2
Ok. Thanks
Hello I wanted to ask how I can delete my account. Because I have 2. one for Youtube one for Twitch but I want to have both on the Twitch account
No need to delete, we can merge them together.
Feel free to DM me (this needs sensitive information)
Hello! I'm new with streamelements and i have one probably simple problem. I made overlay but I don't know how to add him to the OBS Studio. If i want add something here, I need to have it on computer, I don't have posibility to give link, so these links from streamelements have no use... or maybe I'm just missing something. If you would like to help me, I would be grateful!
@weak hamlet 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 check Shutdown source when not visible. https://youtu.be/KDvLynUqXI4
Work, thanks!
Hello, is anyone online that could help me get my yt stream setup ready? (i want to use cash app for donations)
@flat axle We don't support Cash app. You'd have to use that entirely outside of what we support.
Paypal and if you have enough subs along with a supported country SE.Pay.
Which unfortunately you don't meet atm.
Oh ok well im going to leave but thank you for telling me!
What is the best format for stream alerts? Is 1080p 60fps fine or should it be smaller?
1080p60 should work fine
for some reason, my SE dashboard doesn't seem to recognize when I'm live on YT.
I'm logged into the YT account... the bot says it's joined to the channel.
But when I'm live, the button next to my profile says "Offline"
no events are shown in my chat, nor alerts like new subscribers show up either.
check last pinned message
@narrow locust I followed this setup guide.
i'm not sure what you are asking me to look at.
ok that answers the question about alerts... but what about the dashboard not knowing I'm live?
visual bug
I'm live now... but the dashboard says I'm not
the bot isn't responding to commands in chat
@marsh current Please logout of StreamElements at https://streamelements.com/logout and then login again to your account (Twitch/YouTube/Facebook).
did you add the bot to the moderator list?
have you tried to go live again?
i'll try that now
ok the dashboard shows live now, and the bot seems to have joined the channel and is responding to commands... woohoo!
hopefully it works for my actual live stream tonight ๐
cool, if it doesnt you know what to try ๐
THank you so much for the help @narrow locust and @sage lantern
No problem
@marsh current dammnn bro you need to activate windows ๐
Only 12 euros
is this typical with YT? Seems a PITA to have to do all that every time I go live.
It happens more to YT than any other platform yes
that's a shame. I never had it happen to me with Twitch in almost a year of streaming
as for windows... yeah... I'm testing some things for my job.
But had some time to mess with stream issues mid-day..
last question... is it on the roadmap to be able to import chat commands from twitch to YT like we can with overlays?
I don't think it is, you can always put it on the ideas board
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.
What video format do i need for it to have a transparent background? Because mp4 doesn't seem to work
FLV, F4V, AVI, Quicktime, or WebM
Oh, okay, I was kinda confused cause it didn't say it accepts any of those
.webm works
I've been trying to add a 10 second .webm clip with alpha channel to use as an alert for like 3 hours and not one seems to work, all of them add a black background
Is alerts working now for streaming?
Did you see a particular issue with them? There should be some info in the pinned messages for delayed alerts
is the streamelements slow when it comes to youtube analytics?
It's probably related to the delay, there should be some info in the pinned messages.
would the loyalty system ever come to youtube?
Don't think there's any eta or info on that as of now
why does a dancing shark pop up instead?
and the rest pop up the anime girl dancing
Check your variation settings.
where that at?
@tardy pilot disable "enable custom css"
Disable it.
hmm
And save.
Broken in a sense that they are not guaranteed to appear instantly and be delayed for a significant amount of time.
Nope.
You can check your YouTube notifications, they still work instantly for some reason
Hey guys so I'm running a gtx 3070 with Ryzen 5 3600 processor, 32gb of ram and its a single PC setup, even after setting the output resolution to 720p and playing around with the bitrates, I still get choppy recordings and the quality of my stream isn't good.
@sterile ridge There are no "best settings".
Please understand that every setup will be very different.
Any guides or videos that claim otherwise are misinforming. Your best option is to start with a base and adjust as necessary.
You can run the OBS auto-configuration tool. To use the auto-config, click on the Tools menu in OBS, select Auto-Configuration Wizard, and then just follow the on-screen directions.
You can use this tool to get baseline settings for your hardware and adjust as necessary from there.
Test, test, and test again. We are happy to offer suggestions for any issues you may be having afterward, but not a list of settings.
Thank you

Hi everyone
My problem: the chat overlay is not working. There is a background, but no messages are received. As if the broadcast chat is not connected to the overlays, or it is trying to take messages from another chat.
How can this be fixed?
@sinful osprey This is a known issue. Lemme check something.
Need a link to my overlay or something else?
No.
From what I've been told the issue is actually fixed. Were you using a private/unlisted stream?
Unlisted
That would be why. Needs to be public.
Clear. I just wanted to set up and test everything without spectators.
And one more thing: you cannot log into your account to send messages to the chat from the OBS. Google says login is denied because it is not secure enough
In this case, you cannot leave the login window back to the chat in order to continue reading it. Only if you stop streaming or restart OBS
That to my knowledge is another known"issue". Lemme check with that as well.
Which version of OBS are you on?
26.1.1 (64 bit)
Do you have OBS.Live installed?
Yes
Which version?
Stable. I don't know how to see the exact number
bottom right
If I'm not mistaken, 20.12.23.684. It is written in the lower right corner of the OBS
@sinful osprey StreamElements menu, on top of OBS > Logout > Login
try this
Made. I'll test now
Did not help. Should it have logged into my account automatically?
from the login screen, yes
It's not playing? Check the pinned messages in this channel
check pinned message
since the pinned message mentions "by their design", this means there is "fix" as there is nothing to fix or work around at
YouTube made a change and we have to work with how they make it. You can wait up to 4 hours or more before it appears with fhe alertbox.
No way around it.
Go into the overlay editor and click the plus sign to add a widget. Type chat in the search box and it'll show you where it is.
Hey guys! I can't get the bot to work on my youtube live. I'm live right now, commands dont work and i never can get it to. Any suggestions ?
@light helm 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.

Hey i saw a video about contests and that kind of stuff under a tab called "loyalty" and i just wondered why i dont have one
How does one distinguish different membership tiers when making alerts? Cause the emulation only gives me numbers but my memberships on youtube don't have numbers as names
I'm having issues when docking YT chats or after streaming chat window in obs. HELP!!!
Try to log out and log back in from the OBS.Live.
Also make sure your stream is public, for private/unlisted streams there is no chat.
Tried logging out .. still same ... Will try to stream public
Only public streams have the chat enabled.
ohh ... having new issue now ..
earlier it was showing this only ...
This on the other hand is a know issue with Google/Youtube authorization changes.
We are working on that one.
ohh .. so no chat for now .. thank you for the information..
also .. my subs alert not working .. i read that 4 hours delay .. still not working..
The 4h delay on the API is correct. We are also looking into that issue.
ohh ok .. thanks ..
So there is no way to know what do the numbers in the membership emulation mean? The ones that call the tier "1000" not the ones that talk about the months
Hi. What do you mean exactly?
The membership emulation should represent months if you test it.
If you are talking about the TTS emulation etc. - the text is a placeholder.
When you open the custom emulation there is the "amount" which shows the months and then there is the "tier" I want to make variables for the 3 tiers I have but i don't know how to test them without having actual member alerts
You can select if the alert variation will be based on the tier or on the amount. And you have additional variables in the alert text.
Yes, with the amount I've managed to already make a variable that shows how many months someone has been a member and that one works fine but the "tier" is the one that i can't get my head around
What do those requeriments mean?
Its supposed to be subscription tiers but i only get numbers, do those only work with months?
You can either select a tier OR the month.
So you need to choose what the variation will be based on
Its shows to the left its on subscription tier
So for example I have 3 tiers, one is 2โฌ another is 5โฌ and the third is 25โฌ do i just put a 3 to select the 25โฌ one??
Yes
Like i said, you can either select the months or the tiers as a base for the alert variation.
So pick one accordingly.
Oh okay, I just got confused cause when i test it shows this which is the ยก{name} custom text {tier}! command but for some reason it shows tier as a 1000
Ignore the test message for now. Try and test with the real members.
Will try when i get a tier 3 xD Kinda hard right now but i hope it will work at the time
Thanks for the help

Im trying to stream but i cant hear my desktop audio
have you checked your audio settings in OBS etc.? The desktop audio needs to have the correct device set as output.
Hi, I'm trying to set up the loyalty points but I don't see loyalty settings the side menu. Is there something I might have forgot to set up?
Not available for YT.
That makes sense. Thank you
is there certain games you have to stream on OBS because atm im trying to stream lord of the rings online but OBS doesn't seem to be picking it up for some reason as a game capture??
@karmic grove Obs.live is a plugin for OBS Studio for the best OBS support, please join their Official Discord @ discord.gg/obsproject
YES
And what is the result?
it says it joined my channel but it still gives me the opyion to join the channel
You need to be live for the bot to join.
i am live
Public?
ye
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.
- Go to https://studio.youtube.com/, click on Settings > Community and add https://youtube.com/c/streamelements or https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCjerlCIbLPQwSnYlClkjDXg as a Moderator.

Try that.
and i setup the points command but when i do !points its not giving me points
like it says u have no points
Loyalty is not available for YouTube
hey I got a question I changed my YouTube name a while ago how come on Streamelements it still says my old YouTube name?
Is there a way to hotkey "pause alerts" to the same button that changes scenes so if you're in a certain scene no alerts pop out but when you go back to the previous one alerts start again?
Not really. But the pause alert button is available with a Streamdeck
Not sure if it is possible to combine multiple actions in the Streamdeck software to include the switch and pause/unpause alerts
Atm i don't have a stream deck but there should be a hotkey to stop alerts
It would make life much more convenient
Hello
I have two SE accounts. A Twitch and YouTube for each account. I use the wrong log-in on the second account. Because of that, I can't unlink the extra YT account from the second SE account. Whenever I unlink it and try to add it to the other account I get an error that says already assigned to another account. Please let me know the steps I need to use to unlink the account and add it to the original account.
@versed tangle Account Merging - Please note:
- Merging accounts only allows faster ways to switch between accounts
- Merging accounts does not allow data sharing between accounts - different streaming platforms, different type of events
- Merging accounts allows duplicating/sharing overlays between the accounts
If you understand the limitations of merging and want to proceed, please find the JWT tokens (!jwt) from both accounts you want to merge and you will be directed to DM them to a staff member
I'm not sure if what I want to do would be considered merging. Does the SE bot create different profile for command and timers per streaming platform added?
the merged accounts would not share data with each other, they would just be accessible in the same account. So you would have separate bots
Okay. So the merging would allow me to remove from one account and put it on the other account by using the JWT tokens?
no, merging would put them all in the same account
I don't want that . I just to remove one YT profile and put it on another SE account. Would I need to delete all accounts and start over?
Okay thank you.
Anyone around to help? My dashboard isnt showing all my subs?
checked the pinned messages for info on that
@strong surge ohh! Thank you!
@strong surge I've done that and its only saying 7?
more than that haha sorry new to youtube streaming
So the dashboard is only going to show information from the time you added streamelements to the channel. that could be why you're only seeing 7 subs
Hello. Someone probably already asked this but I cannot seem to figure this out. Added a 'total sub' widget (that StreamElements made) to my overlay. At first everything was fine. It displayed the correct subs, but when I emulated a sub, it started showing 'sub tips' as my Total Sub Count. Is there a way that I can do a custom widget and turn off the "tips" or only call the total subs?
Side note: I do have a small background in coding, I just haven't figured out this in StreamElemts yet
You can adjust the data here if the emulation is changing the number: https://streamelements.com/dashboard/session
or is it changing it to something else entirely?
This is what it shows (the correct one) before I emulate anything
But once I emulate a sub, it changed badly
Apparently, its changing to the "sub tip"
No worries thanks for your help! ๐
From my understanding, this is just an effect of the emulation to show that it's working. In a live scenario, it should show the data properly.
oh. ok. thank you
Hey Team, has anyone else ever had trouble with PayPal & receiving payments/tips? Mine is pending and I'm just wondering if this is an ongoing issue with paypal and streaming? thx!
If a viewer tipped through PayPal but no information appears in your StreamElements account, this generally means PayPal has held the tip for verification.
Until PayPal clears the tip and sends back a confirmation to your StreamElements account, no information will appear there and no alert will play, as that confirmation is the only way for us to be aware of a successful transaction.
There is a posibility that the tip may have been sent as an eCheque/eCheck - these tips can take from 7 up to 21+ days to show up on our side. Tippers can usually cancel these.
If you believe there may be an issue with the transaction, you'll need to contact PayPal support as StreamElements is only a passthrough service and never actually gets involved with the transaction or touches the money
Thank you SE Bot ๐
Hi guys, i can't start my live in youtube
when i start my live, the streamelementes don't start my live, he show a button with "start stream requested" write in this button (sorry my English is not very good)

๐ค
@strong surge do you stay here?
Stil here
You can help-me?
have you connected youtube and obs?
try logging out of obs and obs live, then log into both again. it does seem like an issue with your connection to youtube, not with obs itself
how i make this?
@zinc lance StreamElements menu, on top of OBS > Logout > Login
aaaaaa, i just make this, don't work
I would try and reset your connection to youtube, it seems like something there isn't connecting right
Disconnect the stream key, and readd it. I'd suggest you speak with the official discord for better details
@zinc lance Obs.live is a plugin for OBS Studio for the best OBS support, please join their Official Discord @ discord.gg/obsproject
The error is not obs, the error is from the streamelement plug-in
Help me please dude, I can not leave my subscribers in hand
There are some known issues with Google and the OBS.Live login, I would suggest removing OBS.Live and just connecting to OBS with your stream key. Something isn't connecting to youtube, and it might help to check with their support too
so I have a two monitor setup, and when I stream games, i get 20 fps stream but my game stays at 110+. is there a way to fix this?
@pale mulch Dropped Frames means that you have a bad connection between your device and the streaming platform and most likely something related to your ISP not handling the connection properly.
Speed tests usually cannot help solve this problem and its best to use this guide: https://obsproject.com/wiki/Dropped-Frames-and-General-Connection-Issues
If you stream to twitch, use the !twitchtest command and do a connection test to your regional servers.
My internet was amazing, and i had a speed of 10000+ on the test. is there anything else i can do
Try uploading a log to the OBS Analyzer to see what might be causing the issue
how can i do that
In OBS select Help > Log Files > Upload Current Log File. Analyze
You can also post the link here
to the stream?
to the log
look i feel dumb for asking but whats a log
Are you using OBS to stream to YouTube?
okay, let's hop into the twitch helpdesk channel then
Hello, I'm having trouble getting the Kappagen to work. When I put the Emote image in Custom Emotes they show up just fine but when I go to 'Emotes for explosion' and click select emote, nothing shows up to even click on. I've gone through many tutorials on how to use this but all of them are using a Twitch Account while I have a Youtube account. My friend that has emotes on twitch tried adding one of mine and it did work for them either. No matter the image it would not work. We think that Kappagen only works and connects to Afflict Twitch Accounts since they have no problem, but then they have emotes already approved by twitch. This is a real stumpier I would appreciated any help you can offer. If you need screenshots or video of what is wrong on my end I can give it.
Youtube doesn't really have custom emotes to be added to the explotion emote menu
need help
in life alerts don't work but when I'm not live they work what do I do?
Due to changes by Youtube there can be a delay up to 4 hours with subscriber notifications. This is the new intended way for receiving events from Youtube by their design.
and is there any way to change that?
so where can i get help for this situation?
What situation? That alerts are delayed by 4 hours because Youtube decided this to be the way?
Testing alerts will always trigger instantly
getting actual live events is a thing Youtube decided
we can't change that
even if we tried really hard to "fix" what is not broken
Ah OK. Thanks for the info
Hello
Recently I do not see a subscription alert
All the settings are correct, just when someone gives me a subscription it does not show that he is registered at all in the alert activity, and only after a few days it shows that he is registered
Please help, thank you very much
I got this problem too..
Check pinned message
You want to ask that question to youtube, they made it like that and they basically said it's working as intended now
Oh its not good for us....
Exactly
It's a weird move for a platform that said 2021 would see a lot of improvements for livestreaming
i need help
@sinful trench 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 do not see the chat subs and contributions in the software streamelements can anyone help me how to do that I will see
it should be here: https://streamelements.com/dashboard/activity
but subs are massively delayed thanks to youtube
see the pinned messages for more info
I know you can see there but I want to see in the software itself
OBS.Live? click on the StreamElements menu > Activity Feed
Can you come call to show me?
I succeeded Thank you Achsli appreciates!
StreamElements provides tools for livestreaming
Hello, with the overlays, if someone subscribes to my youtube channel should I not get a notification?
Look at my pinned message.
Ah I see
That's assuming they have their subscriptions set to public to trigger it in the first place.
How do i reset my donation goal guys?
To reset goals:
- from the Overlay Editor > Session data on top right (monitor symbol) > Goals tab > reset progress of desired goal
- from the Dashboard > Activity feed on the left > Widget data on the right > Goals tab -> reset progress of desired goal
Note: Goal widgets (progress) only counts up and doesn't go down automatically, if you lose followers/subs.
hey everyone im having an issue with alertboxes not appearing when someone subs
ah dw i saw pinned messages thankyou!!
Hello, I want to connect my twitch and youtube to the same Streamelementd account, but when I click Add Account it says Channel is already claimed and I also cant disable my Twitch elements konto, cause it doesnt accept my username!
@steep zephyr Account Merging - Please note:
- Merging accounts only allows faster ways to switch between accounts
- Merging accounts does not allow data sharing between accounts - different streaming platforms, different type of events
- Merging accounts allows duplicating/sharing overlays between the accounts
If you understand the limitations of merging and want to proceed, please find the JWT tokens (!jwt) from both accounts you want to merge and you will be directed to DM them to a staff member
so I can then switch quicker between both?
Yes
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.
who can I dm the tokens=
You can dm me
I am sorry that I am asking, but how can I know that youre an staff member?
Good question! If you feel more comfortable, you can send an email to support@streamelements.com and ask for help with an account merge
Ok thank you, I will do that! Thank you very much for your help!
is there a fix for the alerts not showing up? Thank You guys
check the pinned messages for issues with alerts
how can i add the alerts to streamlabs OBS
@rancid mason We're not able to troubleshoot issues with using our overlays in StreamLabs OBS (SLOBS) as we don't have the tools to support their software. We recommend using OBS Studio or OBS Studio with our plugin OBS.Live.
ok
just fixed it
hello guys i really need help, so my alert box only works in emulate
not in real live streaming, could someone help me?
my stream activity is not even working, I've downloaded the obs live
@restive gust Pinned messages.
is it about the 4 hours thingy?
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 user's 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
I've done the privacy thingy
Not you.
Them.
Those subscribing have to have theirs set to public to trigger in the first place.
Otherwise it's just waiting for us to receive it.
Quick question... why my subscriber alerts doesnโt show and in activity panel that subscriber appears one day after? I am using YouTube ๐ค
Its normal? I doing something wrong?
Check the newest pinned message.
Are there still delays for the Subscriber alerts?
So I'm still in the mood to make lives on the streamelements platform however I'm still having problems with connection, does anyone know how I can solve these problems?
I just created a horizontal chat overlay and need some help to see if this is possible. I basically recreated MrBoost Twitch's horizontal chat and got it working for YouTube. Running a stream right now and it's working great. The only thing I am not sure i we can do or not is add badges to the users. I have a feeling it's in the JS field, but not sure of the YouTube nomenclature versus Twitch's, i.e. it was written as "service: "twitch" so I changed to YouTube but nada. (also, new to streamelements, so I'm sure there are some other things I'm missing....but it works!)
roger that

Hi, I'm having trouble getting streamelements to login through YT. When I go to login, it sends me to google to select the account, but it returns to the page where it shows to connect through Twitch, YT, or FB and doesn't show me logged in.
make sure you're selecting the correct account, for me it shows two accounts with the same name but only one of them works
my chatbot still doesnt work even tho he is connected
I need help with setting up sound i put it in from my file but dont no what to click to add
I'm trying to create an account with a different email, but it won't connect (sorry should have clarified that)
doesnt the alerts work on Brand acc?
checked them just wanted to make sure
because the one who subscirbed didnt had his acc on private so i thought it would show up
I need help with setting up sound for alerts i put it in from my file but dont no what to click to add
how many times are you going to post it?
sry
have you watched the video that was sent earlier by the bot?
yes i know but when you go into upload sound
and is everything working fine with the account on your browser?
Yes, everything else is working fine.
yes but i uploaded it but what do you press to like when your streaming it does the sound'
it does it automatically when someone subs, or well... it used to do it
until youtube broke it
so what do i do now
nothing
YOUTUBE broke the alerts by delaying them with 4 hours (minimum)
nothing we can do about it
so i cant add my own sound like there used to be a submit button
ye
is still there
not for me
which browser?
what you mean
can you dm me a screenshot of your issue?
my new subscirbers from the 9. feb arent showing on the streamelements webside is that normal too?
um to get the sound
and why isnt the bot working
anyone else having an issue loading their merch page??
@thin dock Our Dashboard and Overlay Editor are Chromium Optimized. We strongly recommend using Chrome. Opera GX and the new Microsoft Edge Chromium might work closest to Chrome as its also Chromium built. Firefox also works, but some things might look a bit different or not work. We do not recommend using Internet Explorer with our Dashboard as it does not support functions.
If the website doesnโt work on chrome, be sure none of your plugins is blocking our website or clear your cookies. You can try if the website works in an incognito tab.
@thin dock Please provide your account ID found at the top of this page: https://streamelements.com/dashboard/account/channels This ID is public info and safe to share here.
which browser are you using?
it was working earlier but then just hit a loading block
yeah no one was asking for your ID, just answer the question please @mellow grove
my internet is also fine
like my comupter browser
some SE website features might not work in other browsers besides chrome
yes
microsoft
then try it in Google Chrome
try it in an incognito tab
click on the 3 ... in the top right
and select incognito window
then try it in there
It might be a browser extension blocking it
and trying it in incognito disables the browser extensions
@mellow grove Please logout of StreamElements at https://streamelements.com/logout and then login again to your account (Twitch/YouTube/Facebook).
someone is looking in to your account as we speak
k
where are you trying to upload new sounds?
to my alerts
which one?
everyone but right now subs
go into your alert settings, upload sound, select files, upload your sound and then you will be able to select it for your alerts
I don't see any audio files on your account yet
let me add one i kept on deleting them and readding
and i cant click sumit
submit
upload a screenshot
how do you do screen shot
I mean, share a screenshot here showing that
@mellow grove Please provide a proper screenshot with the issue visible. If not sure how to take a screenshot, you can check here: https://www.take-a-screenshot.org
I think thats an mp4 file, you need to select an audio file (.mp3, .wav)
it .mp4
.mp4 won't work for audio alerts
there are free tools online that will convert that into mp3 or wav
my alerts are not working when someone subs
seriously?
yes
You know I've already told you why don't you? ๐
you did
so they wount pop up
not in the first 4 hours of the person subbing
will they fix it
There is nothing to fix according to YouTube, it's working as intended is what they said
k
Hey, anyone else having the issue now where YouTube subscribers don't show up and randomly all come in at once in the log and start spamming?
For instance, you can see the time when all these people subscribed but they all pop up at the same time long after they actually subscribe and my alert box gets spammed like crazy where I have to refresh the cache
This has been going on for over a month now. It never used to be an issue
check the pinned messages
no problem ๐
I canโt use stream elements itโs not working how do I fix anybody know
@solid cradle 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.
- Go to https://studio.youtube.com/, click on Settings > Community and add https://youtube.com/c/streamelements or https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCjerlCIbLPQwSnYlClkjDXg as a Moderator.
- When live, be sure to look at Live chat instead of Top chat, as Top chat will hide the bot messages.
I did it now
when I click start streaming, I get this on obslive
@woeful onyx StreamElements menu, on top of OBS > Logout > Login
it still does the same thing
try also relogging to your OBS (settings > stream)
@narrow locust you mean, re-entering my stream key?
yes, see if that fixes anything
nah, still does that blank popup
seems to crash here
