Because when the account will be merged, I dont want to lose the overlays that I have made
how do i start a stream too youtube or twitch
and can you name a good edit app there you can edit your videos to youtube
Hey all. Noob here looking for a little help. I appear to be having an issue with my feed inside the apps. For some reason has just decided to throw a network error and guide me to re-connect to YT, which circles round to another error. Not sure how to diagnose. Too new to streaming!
if you have obs.live you just need to login to the account you want to stream to from the streamelements menu

StreamElements menu, on top of OBS > Logout > Login
try this:
- Close OBS
- Delete the contents of this folder: "%appdata%\obs-studio\plugin_config\obs-browser\Cache"
- Open OBS
THANK YOU!!!! So much!!
when i am doing a video it is just a black screen when i watched it after it was done pls help what do i need to do so they can see my gameplay
and how do i get the livestream to my youtube channel
I'm about to give up on the support request I opened about 3 days ago... I've been trying to either delete my YT account or merge it with my Twitch login but it hasn't been fixed yet.
Can somebody help me out with a StreamElements Mercury problem? The templates work awesome, I even applied them to 79 videos. But I can't get the Discord Connection to work. It keeps saying I need to connect. The bot is on my Server and the roles seem okay but I can't use the Discord Widgets. I tried to re-connect but keeps having the same result. I also tried in Chrome & Firefox. Any advice? It's on this URL: https://mercury.streamelements.com/dashboard/connections - Thanks!
does the bot have admin perms? also, we have a channel for this: #beta_mercury 😄
Thanks, I'll copy the question to there and check if the bot has Admin Perms. Thanks!!
Hello Staffs, My Subscribers Count on Youtube is more than 170K, While trying to join Dream Team, I got a notification saying Follower Count is too low to apply.. Please help me here!!!
If you mean for UnControlled Gaming I actually can't see the sub count for that channel which may be the reason why.
Oh..Okay Ill Try again Without hiding the Subs Count
Still Same Issue
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.
yea...
Grab that info from the bot message.

Channel Name Shows differently... thats the custom URL name from youtube

Since I can't look closer I've asked staff to look.
@dull vortex I've been told to direct you to our ticket system. Fill this out here and mention the account ID you gave above https://streamelements.com/contact
Since nobody's seemingly been able to resolve my account merging issue, should I just keep two separate acc for yt and twitch then?
Can you give me the cliff notes of what's been done until now? I'd love to look into this and expedite the next step.
Well, I'm trying to either delete the YT account then relink with my twitch so one login for all my accounts, or merge them together, but I got an email from Keizar saying 'we are not able to link the accounts because additional owner type accounts linked to each other.'
But I'm not seeing a way to remove any extras off the YT acc
And when I go thru the "Close my account" form, nothing happens
how can we help?
anyone know how to fix it
it gets stuck everytime?
and it was working before?
Ok, so if merging isn't possible, you can either leave things as they are, or indeed close one of the accounts. Be aware though that closing an account means that all accounts linked will be deleted. And if the close account form doesn't work for you, I can open a request with the developers and ask for it to be done.
Yes, I'm fine with closing the YT account so I can relink it with my twitch login I assume?
Yup, you'll be able to link it to the Twitch one after.
Go ahead, anything u need from me?
Wait, are you using streamlabsobs?
This is better done over email, so please contact us here with the delete request: https://streamelements.com/contact and we'll ask you for further details there.

Hi guys, I made a mistake and made an account but cannot find my JWT token to close it (and migrate it to my main account)
how do I find the JWT token?
Don't need to close to add it to another.

Hi can someone please help me set up subscriber data, I have a subs goal and Name on my stream but it never updates, I have just got 2 more and the number hasnt changed and names didnt appear, If i test it using the emulate function it shows to be working, but it just doesnt. It has been like it since i started using SE. Thanks
I had a problem with my alerts popping up on my YouTube live stream. I'm using obs . Also when I run a test when I'm live it does come up on my live stream.
Did you figure it out? My totals in Widget data are correct it just doesnt reflect in any of the widgets
I typed it wrong i still have the problem. Everytime I get a new sub i don't see the alert On the screen
Please check the pinned messages
I don't get it
I have done that. It made no difference
This was a reply for a different user. In your case you can try to reset the session and check the data
That came in on the back of my issue and I have done that as well it make no difference
Thank you so i probably did it right then? Lol
I have set it to the current number I have set it to 0 nothing changes anything
And regardless of the numbers the names don’t come up either.
Please check the widgets, not all widgets are updated the way you think they do. Goals for example are independent. If the data in Widget Data tabs is correct, then we already have the correct data.
This was for a different user too 😄 Your information is the link that i posted, please check it out. And check who got the reply 🙂
To avoid confusion while i respond to multiple people.
One more question before I go it says it might be delayed 4 hours does that count for donations and new members? Or donations and members are instant ?
This only affects subscriber events
Exactly, but the numbers never tally
Hey
I have scenes and everything set up for Twitch streaming + I was logged in with Twitch.
When I switched Streamelements to YouTube account (I logged in with YT) I lost all positions on SElemnts, whag I wanted to ask is it possible to Sync those two? So I don't have to do everything again for YouTube?
Fee free to tag me :)
@near stag i love you man thank you sorry for bugging man
Well which widgets are showing incorrect data?
Every platform is separate and has fully separate settings for everything. So no, it is not possible to sync anything between different platforms that we support. At all. The best you can get is a copy of an overlay that is partially compatible.
For example subscriber total says 102 but sub goal says 100. Sub total goes to 103 and sub goal is still on 100 and also no notification of a new user or a latest sub name either
Sorry not new user I meant sub
Got confused with work lol
Sub goals are independent and can be adjusted in the widget data > goals tab.
Other mentioned widgets will always show the latest data.
So I have to manually increase the sub number everytime?
Not the sub number. Only the goal widget if you use that - that one is NOT linked to your actual amount of subs. The goal widget is designed to start at a custom amount (usually 0) and count up from there, it can't count down or adjust to the current number of subs.
Exactly so for example I have 100subs and the goal is 200 and so in the layer I set it to 200 and in the widget I set it to 100 and when I get a sub it will go to 101 and count down the days. Correct?
Yes. And this is exactly what the widget does. But if someone unsubscribes, you lose a sub but the widget did not count that as lost.
I understand all of that,but, it just continually sits at 100 and I have increased by 10. It still stuck at 100 forever until I go and manually change it
The widget will count all incoming subscriber events as +
So unless there is a bug, that widget will always count up when a new subscriber event comes in
Well there is the problem it is not detecting a subscriber event. Like I said earlier as well subscriber alerts don’t appear and nor do subscriber names
hi how to show live chat in the obs live screen
And other events are coming in fine?
I don’t have any other events, just those 3 all based on subs
hi streamelements i have a problem for some reason i dont get membership nofication what should i do?
Please check if other events are arriving fine
As I have said before I don’t have any other events, and I said my sub names don’t appear and my sub alerts don’t appear
We would need more data here, so checking other events such as memberships or superchats is the way to do it quickly
I am a fairly new streamer so dont use memberships or have superchats
With the current changes to the YT API we need other events to verify it as Subscribers are problematic
@near stag hi can u help me?
only of you post a question 🙂
4 weeks problematic,I watch a lot of other streams and they are not having any problems
ok my question is why i dont see membership nothications in dashboard?
The changes to the YouTube API are like over a year old, there is nothing we can do about subscriber events being delayed. So please test with alternative events.
Do you have members that shared the membership with public settings?
i dont know how do i find that?
Well check your YouTube internal dashboards for the memberships
ok wait a sec
i cant find it can u explain where is that?
YT Studio - Monetization - Channel membership
i have that in German so i can't tell you the exact names
This is where you see your memberships
Thanks, but how is thatpossible, I am a newish channel, I do not have members or superchats
yes
How many? And do you know if they announced the membership in public?
This is super simple, the YT API currently has a specific delay for Subscribers so we can't test that.
Superchats and Memberships are easy to enable if you have an active, but new YT channel.
it should apear here
but it doesnt apear
If you set the filter correctly - then yes.
@edgy sandal ⤵️
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.
Please share the ID here and i check that for you.
5f897c0a92ff3f32fb89915c
Lol
It shows me that you have 2 members. Those were properly counted.
And the alerts for those went live when the membership was shared
The alert and event only shows up when the membership is SHARED with the stream in public.
This works just like Twitch paid subscribers - if you pay but do not share the sub, no event is happening
what do u mean?
See above please.
What do you mean by shared in public is there a setting to make that like that?
This is a setting that affects each user, it exists in some form on YT and on Facebook etc.
If the user is not sharing the event, nothing will happen.
Yes this is for each individual user
Not
For example i have renewed a payment for a sub on Twitch, but there will be no alert until i go to the actual channel and announce it
does not matter how many months i skipped the announcement
I appreciate that
I have added a latest live superchat, so how do i test it with live data?
Did that event go through?
If you had a live superchat?
No Sorry
60e85d070e1f48c8de2a097b
Was the livechat done on a public livestream?
Yes
Thats cos I dont have enough subs, just found all that out, I did say I am a new channel only been going 4 weeks, I only want to see the bimmin subs.
And i explain again that subscriber events are problematic and have a delay due to the YT API. Nothing we can do about it
I am sure you can understand my frustration tho, it seems to work for all the other livestreams I watch.
I wish i could turn on my YT livestream now (can't, at work) so you would see - this is the same for me, but i have a bigger, fully partnered channel with almost all features enabled.
Well thanks for all your help anyway. i do appreciate it i honestly
Hi everyone, I will probably get a big slap on the wrist for not using search properly... what is the best way to merge my Youtube and Twitch SE accounts together under one umbrella? much love ❤️ Pierogi

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.
Sorry, accidentally! Can be closed.
Hi there! I have a question... I am trying to have my text for new members or super chats,gifted subs, bits, etc... show up within a certain box. Is there a way to make sure the font fills the box but shrinks if the name is longer? Hope that makes sense. I have tried "dynamic text" but it goes SUPER small and is in the top left corner of the box.. 🙂
Hello I was wondering how come some people are able to see the join members button on my YouTube profile and some are not able to see the join members button?
the issue with the dynamic text setting is being looked at, should work properly in the near future
hello! out of curiosity, is there any way to make or incorporate a viewer count widget into my stream overlay for youtube?
hey, unfortunately, no. YT doesn't provide a viewer count API point
@peak sage thanks heaps mate, unfortunate, but is what it is i guess! 👍
no worries!
I see that YouTube has commissioned a team under the oversight of the OBS development team to fix the authentication issue with OBS and YouTube Live Streaming.
Hi everyone. Quick question... If I wanted to use a shared overlay from someone and import that into a current overlay that I have (as a layer) is that something that can be done?
Hi. Yes, if the overlay has a shareable link already - you can use that. Or if you imported that to your account
You can migrate everything between overlays if you wish
I imported it into my account
so I see it there, I just don't know to get that into my other overlay
So overlay A is my "main" with all of my alerts, etc... overlay B is the one I just imported and want inside of overlay A
You can duplicate widgets inside the overlay, check the settings for each layer in the editor
Correct, but it stays inside of that overlay, I must be misunderstanding lol
Because they are two different overlays.. .trying to get the widget from one to inside of another
You can duplicate widgets to other overlays, this is why i recommended it
Once you duplicate, you get to choose if you want it in the same or in a different overlay.
Gotcha
What is the best way to get a sharable link for my overlays I have so I can load them into another account?
This is not possible, shareable links for overlays are not available for normal users.

What is the best way to not have duplicate alerts pop up? I have a custom alert/animation but a "Stock" one comes up as well? CAn't seem to find where that is
I am not finding my jwt token section in streamelements.com
For....?
It was right there in settings in previous version
I think i am having a problem with youtube alerts @main vector
So i am trying to seek some help here
previously i was having same issue and some one asked for that token and add my account to look for devs.
Ok. Then what might be the solution for youtube alerts not working. I know about 4 hrs youtube alerts thing but i am not getting any from weeks.
Previously, I tried removing streamelements access from google account and relogin and it worked.
But now it's not working
If you go to YouTube studio and look at this does it show new users or is the last one decently old?
Yes. Its not showing recent subscribers. But subscribers count has increased.
Is this because of the subscribers keeping their subscriptions private.

Read my mind
But most likely yes
If the sub count increases with 0 notification of a user then that's it.
Yes sub count increases with 0 notification.
After talking to you my doubts are clear as crystal.
If you guys are having this problem is cause you're using an iphone . I texted YouTube customer service last night
Hello, before the start of the stream in the obs, a window with the name and description of the stream on YouTube popped up, but I wrote the word test both there and there for the test time and accidentally clicked don't show anymore. Now I constantly have a stream called a test, and it gets boring to fix it through YouTube, tell me how to make this window appear again, thank you in advance
Or you can customize the name and description via YouTube?
try removing the contents of this folder and try again:
%appdata%\obs-studio\plugin_config\obs-browser\Cache
Hi! I accidentally connected to Youtube and it made a new account but I want it to merge with my existing Twitch account. Can I merge the accounts?

how do i use loyalty?

Hi all, crackling mic audio, advice needed samsung Huawei, youtube, or stream elements? need advice please really need some pointers most huawei and some samsungs are afected by this. and same thing if i use streamlabs. it only happens on youtube here is an example of the crackling very noticeable when you have two distinctive sounds in this case the ocean waves and me speaking theres alot of crackling. thanks
Is there a reason I'm getting terrible CPU spikes that makes me lose frames? All I do is load alerts on new members, tips, or superchats.. I have ryzen 9 3900x and 128 gb of memory with an RTX 3080
Might be worth asking in tech-talk, as there might be some hardware issues that they can talk you through
Generally, loading multiple sources at once can cause frames to drop, But it might be worth looking into the logs to see if anything sticks out
do I need to provide those?
When I took the alerts off, frames are good now
😦
I need those notifications though
I would look into optimizing them for better performance if you can. Putting them on one overlay for example, would make the cpu load easier
I have them all into one
One browser source
but theres something about it hitting (i get almost 200 super chats per stream) and the alerts did not like it
try this:
OBS > Settings > Advanced > Scroll down > Enable or disable Browser Source Hardware Acceleration, depending on its current state > Restart OBS

no ,its unlisted or private
the stream needs to be public in order for the chat widget to work
i've just tested, the chat can still work if its unlisted
but the widget inside SE website works, when i copy the url into OBS, it doesnt load

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 doesn’t 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.
use chrome on PC for the best result
I dont have a PC
But it was working
Why it just dont work anymore?
This is strange Lmao
not sure, but it's a local thing since it works for me
Strange, I will try to use another browser or idk. Tysm for the help. Have a nice day/night
hey how do i get emojis to show up in chat,it did show normal emojis but when it comes to youtube emojis it doesnt show(only showed the name of the emoji)
Hi I am logged into Streamelements with Twitch. I want to try it out with YouTube and see how it goes. On Dashboard do I have to be logged in YouTube as well because I am logged into Twitch dashboard.
emojis are not supported yet, it's planned but no ETA on this
you would have to switch to your youtube account, you can add it to your main account from your channel settings so you can easily switch between the two
so only default ones
can anyone help with this
check pinned message

how can i chnage thumbnail while going live each time with obs streamelemts live
I believe you can set the thumbnail only via the YT studio dashboard
okay okay
like streamlbas obs gives an option so i thought maybe SE also had it
and my SE acc is not syincing with the subscribers list
We do have na option to set the settings of the stream just as you click "start streaming"
but i don't think it gives options for a thumbnail
idk like m having rpoblems with alerts
for the subscribers, check the pinned message about them
m asking aabout the subscriber alerts
ok
I was live with chat engagement. Nothing showed in the overlay. It worked the first time I streamed but now it doesn't. I've had to resort to using a different method but would prefer to keep things running with StreamElements.
is there no way to setup scheduled streams ?
Not with our system. You can join scheduled streams that you set up directly on youtube, but we do not have any tools for it
Do I have to be signed into Stream elements page for the overlays and alerts to work while streaming? Or another way to say can I just sign out when Im done editing my overlays
No, you can just finish editing, save them and close the page.
thank you
hii
whenever i try to start stream from obs via youtube it gets stuck on this window and never shows anything.
it'll say stream start requested then get stuck on the window above
oh nvm i fixed it lol, sorry for the bother
just looking to figure some things out for a first time streamer please help me out?!
anyone in here?
How can we help?
is there a chance that you can do voice chat?
had a few questions and typing may be a little excessive
Unfortunately, I wouldn't be able to 😅
ok
so i want to stream on you tube
and I added my youtube stream key and have elements attached to my channel, but when I go to hit the stream button i am not sure if i am streaming on youtube
Do you see your page go live?
not sure
When you go live, check your YouTube page to see if you're live or if it's still not connected.
is there a way that i can access my camera on omegle and while its using the OBS app?
henlo. i accidentally signed in to my youtube account separately on stream elements instead of adding it as an addition account under my twitch account through stream elements. now it says, “channel is already claimed.” how might i fix that??

Please logout of StreamElements at https://streamelements.com/logout and then login again to your account (Twitch/YouTube/Facebook).
log in with your YouTube and see if that is different
i can login with my youtube but then i cant change between acounts on top right
yup yup. i just wanted to check; you basically have 2 different accounts. A staff member will need to merge them.

Hi. I needed help on adding a custom command that will leave a link to a targeted user's youtube channel link. How do I do that?
hi, how do i get my tipping link renamed to what my current youtube name is instead of my old one?
🙂
My alert box works when i test it but when people subscribe to me it does not show up
Also my activity feed is blank and whenever I use ground control it makes me use my twitch account although my twitch account isnt even affiliated or logged into the stream elements site
when I log in manually it just infinite loads
please @ me if u can help me, also I am not using obs live because it creates problems when i go live with restream
You are likely seeing the results of YouTubes design that delays/stops your activity feed from getting live events, which stops the alerts as well
Unfortunately no, that is a design entirely by YouTube so we can't change it
Damn, thanks for the help anyways thought truly appreciate it
question, i have a two chat overlays for differents scenes in obs, but when i change scene one of those chats is behind and it takes a couple of seconds to refresh, is this normal or is there a way to fix it? i have the boxes checked in the options of the overlay, for it to refresh
Do you have the overlay set to shut down when not active?
Somebody please help, my subscriber alert is working when i emulate it, but when i get my alt to sub it doesnt show, i am on youtube
That is YouTubes design that delays/stops your activity feed from getting live events, which stops the alerts as well.
so what you are telling me is that i cant do that on youtube
ill just stream on twitch. Thank you though!
Howdy - I use your overlays for Twitch and YouTube to simply show my follower/sub count. Twitch is awesome - it's live and fresh as soon as events happen. Youtube has ALWAYS never worked. It does not show live when a subscriber subscribes, and the subscriber count from the session data is ALWAYS off. For example, I stared stream with 305 subs, but your overlay said 292. I just went into the overlay editor and manually reset session data - but Youtube overlay never works. Any fixes?
That is YouTubes design that delays/stops your activity feed from getting live events, which stops the alerts as well. There isn't a fix for it, as it's by their design
i figured it out, if they have a setting called "subscriptions public to everyone" or smthing you wont get it
Ahhh! So if they have setting to private where you can’t see their subscriptions (channels they follow) then Streamelements also won’t show the updated count of my channel subs and the live alert? Because the biggest concern I have is that the sub count seems to never update —even for days if ever—that’s all I want is sub count to be accurate when I go live again the next day or in two days or whenever.
yeah, thats why im switching to twitch
the alerts make it feel alive
Hi, what would be the place to learn regex? I've been getting really racist and offensive people in my chat recently and would like to filter messages and usernames 🙇♀️
Hopefully my ticket gets resolved soon (been a week so far). I can't switch to YT streams until the acc is deleted so I can relink it to my proper SE account. :/
@zealous wind did you send a ticket about this?
ya via email, said a couple times ( a few days between asking ) waiting on devs to delete the account so I can relink it on the right account that I've had for longer (twitch login)
We'll keep track of it, certainly
I hope to move to yt streams by mid of next week but I'd need to setup overlays and SE bot too.
Heya im trying to stream but when ever i press Start Stream nothing happends saying its streaming but it isnt. ive tried reinstalling it all but i just doesnt seem to work and i streamed yesterday and didnt do anything to my software so its really weird it doesnt work today help! xD
Have you updated the OBS or obs.live?
Hey guys, I asked for the link in the tipping panel to be changed from mrwiggo to wiggoplays a few days ago, but it is still the former. Can anyone update me please. My account id is 5f39171ff07ad330808fe575. Many thanks
where i can find a button to delete account on streamelements?
can someone do a vc and help me out with a few stuff
my subscribers are not getting updated in my stream elements neither am i getting any alert when someone subs
Please refer to the pinned messages
in this i have to manually update that 197 one but total subs one is getting updated on its own + no last sub coming
i did
but still cant find the problem
if ypu can do a vc i will share my screen and you can help me out
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.
but atleast it should get updated by 4 hours
earlier it used to show me that who has subscribed
but it didnt change for a month
Hey everyone. I have a bit of an annoying issue with SE. Recently I started using Mercury for my YouTube channel. I was using SE for Twitch for a long time. But now, everytime I log into Mercury, it logs me into the YouTube portion of the main SE dashboard as well. When I want to change Twitch stuff I need to log out and back in with Twitch again, which in turn logs me out of Mercury.
So I tried to just connect my YouTube account to my Twitch login so that I could easily switch between platforms without having to log out/in again. But whenever I try to do this, it says that my account is already claimed.
Is there something I can do to fix that problem?
We can merge them for you if you wish
If that doesn't break my current Twitch setup with all my overlays and such and simply allows me to more easily switch between my YT and Twitch accounts then I guess that would work 😄
I don't stream on YT, but I use Mercury for it, which still logs me into the YouTube side on the main dashboard as well.
I will give a small warning as this is a 1 way street and can't be undone.
So... just to be really sure... what would merging mean exactly?
It'll do what you wanna do and nothing more.
Obviously I don't want to break anything, so if the safest bet would be to just log out and back in again, I'll just keep doing that 😅
Nothing will break and you'llll be able to switch without issue.
It's just if you get cold feet and wanna remove either one is where an issue arises.
Gotcha. While I don't have an intention to get rid of my YT, I guess, just for the sake of safety I'll leave things the way they are for now.
It's not a massive hassle to change accounts or anything
is there a widget that shows the top 3 chatters in YT livestream
Like users that send most of messages?
I use restream and I cannot log into youtube on the OBS Live
Also I cannot connect to Scheduled Youtube Events at all
Hi BTW LOL Sorry
@clever oracle ⤵️
StreamElements menu, on top of OBS > Logout > Login
So I can connect to restream and Youtube together now?
we dont support streaming to multiple platforms
When I try to stream straight to YouTube it wants to go live and not connect with a scheduled Stream event.
The page is blank
it doesn't work with scheduled streams

hello can someone help me i did my overlay and i dont know how to put it on obs.live someone answer me please fast
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
thanks
I don't have following on YouTube or twitch does it matter what I decide to stream on or will I be fine to just so either
You can always ask around in the community channels for tips/suggestions

Hello i have trouble loggin in streamelements on OBS its says it's not save to use this browser. thanks
what browser are you using?
chrome
That's intentional
You can't login to the chat dock due to security reason that Google has.
how can I change browser because i was logged in with twitch and it worked fine
Because they're 2 different websites and chat systems.
yeah but I cannot see activity feed on youtube when I am streaming
any updates on this ?

I have 118 subs but my sub count in my overlay hasn't been updated since 104. My dashboard doesn't show the new subs. The most recent subs label doesn't show this is a well. Mercury does show the increase. Am I doing something wrong here?
I am having the same issue/
okay so maybe i understood it now
I have 14 new subs in the last few days and none of it is showing up on the dashboard or in stream with widgets.
so the thing is alot of people have the setting on that says keep your subscription private so when they subscribe the stream elements doesn't get updated and the thing that we are not getting that blah blah person just subscribed alert is that youtube updates that thing after 4 hours
to confirm this thing i asked one of friend to change the setting to not keep his subscription private and then re subscribe to me
so it got updated now
but still i am not getting the alert but thats maybe because of the youtube thing
Do use Mercury? the changes show up there
no whats mercury?
it is a streamelements thing that lets you put data in your YT description.
Like most recent sub, sub goal, tip page, latest tipper,
nope never heard of it
tanks for the info
Whenever I click "start streaming" it pops up with a box that says "start streaming to youtube". However, this box is blank and won't allow me to start my youtube stream
anyone have a fix for this?
@tender swift Hey! Sounds like a known issue that is currently being investigated by developers.
We would need to confirm this by collecting the most recent log file after a replication of the issue.
Within OBS please navigate to the Help menu > Log Files > Show Log Files.
From that folder please provide us with the most recent log file.
Is there anyway to get my youtube profile to update with my channels current information? The channel had been rebranded and renamed and all my links and info is still the old stuff (even my tip page) and I need to somehow just revert everything.
I am okay even if it means straight up deleting the entire thing and redoing it from scratch.
Please ping me if you have a solution for this
Hello it seems that my chat box doesnt work? But the alert box works just fine

you can still view the videos by searching for them, but you can't see them in my channel
on your actual youtube page or streamelements page?

Okay thanks. I will do that in the morning!
Hello, I just downloaded stream elements today and I am wondering how do you edit text when your trying to edit a overlay? I really want to know.
@ebon notch ⤵️
To edit the text of a widget, click on it and select Settings at the bottom left.
thanks mr robot
How can I view my activity feed (who subbed, donated,...) without being able to log in to my account?? Because now I don't have a working activity feed without being able to log in to my YT channel through OBS Live.
yo whats up ive been using stream elements for a fat minute but today I opened it up and no video capturing devices would actually display anything
im super confused and sad because this software is awesome and I really need to stream some stuff
@fallow laurel You have to be logged in.
Randomly the chat overlay will not show up on a stream, most of the time it works. Suspect it something to do with the youbtube and streamelements connection. Quite annoying to not know if it going to not going to work until a stream is live. Any way to force a refresh/reconnection of the youtube/streamelements chat connection?
hello i need a help, i have started streaming on YouTube, can we get bots on YouTube?? That tell us Win and lost and other commands ??
@pearl tapir ⤵️
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.
So whenever I open the dashboard on the website it gives me a full white page. Same when I want to link my youtube channel to my obslive
Which browser are you using?
firefox
Could you try with chrome please?
with chrome it worked
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 doesn’t 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.
So with a further bit of investigation it looks like if you schedule a stream or more than one stream or even just start a stream with a scheduled stream the chat overlay connection will stick to the first scheduled stream and not appear on any other stream.
Hi, this is the log file when trying to start up a youtube stream.
Hello
could someone help me
I have a problem with streamelements.
is that alerts don't appear when I'm doing live on you tube.
PS: I use streamlabs
@eternal lily ⤵️
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.
Hi, my stream chat is not dhowing on stream
I can see this on stream elements
but on obs anything is happening

But now that I put public its just showing the msg STREAM ELEMENTS IS RUNNING

Not all staff are able to assist with support issues. Please refrain from pinging them or sending them DMs unless asked to.
Are you live right now?
No
Or have a public stream?
No
That would be why. It needs to be public to show.
But when I tested it it was public
How long did you go live for?
Yeah. It may take up to 15 or so minutes for the bot to recognize you're live.
But he sent the msg that he was running
And it showed on obs
But the other msgs dont

@strong surge
Are you streaming to youtube and seeing this?
no
well
my stream won't even come on
when it comes on I see my stream for 5 seconds (and I don't see any overlays)
What platform are you trying to stream to?
It might just be a matter of server connection
YouTube
from obs.live
also how do I get all my twitch things to my youtube thing? (like media request, giveaways) or can I just copy the link from the media request overlay to obs.live and it will work?
because when I go to my twitch profile on SE dashboard it has way more features than the youtube profile has
also should I get Ground Control?
YouTube is unable to use the same features as twitch, so the options given on the YouTube page are by design. I would advise checking your log as well to see if there is something there
@molten sonnet ⤵️
Please post a link to your current log file.
In OBS select Help > Log Files > Upload Current Log File. Copy the URL and paste it here.
ok

@strong surge https://obsproject.com/logs/gUEZn6-WeUwxLun6
that sucks. youtube needs better features
Also @strong surge when I log into the chat thing on OBS app google says some thing like Unsafe broswer try again
so I can never see the chat in OBS studio app
@strong surge
Please avoid excessive pings. The YouTube chat is not available through OBS due to Google restrictions, so you won't be able to view chat there
Do you happen to have any logs from a stream you tried to do?
How do I do that?
@strong surge
You would want to look at your logs and see which ones were created when you went to stream, or grab the next log of your next stream

Is there a Tutorial on how to do that
Not a tutorial, but this may help: https://obsproject.com/forum/threads/please-post-a-log-with-your-issue-heres-how.23074/
Or you can take a look at the OBS analyzer to see if it points out anything to you
@strong surge is that ok?
@strong surge
Were you able to take a look in the analyzer?
I see some critical issues that may need to be looked at to ensure a functional stream
Ok
I dont get it

the link Traffy gave you has more information about these issues
Ok
Also @narrow locust is that saying my pc cant handle OBS.live?
Obs.live
Because before I started adding overlays to obs.live my stream was fine and nothing went wrong
correct, integrated gpus usually struggle with gaming/streaming
adding overlays can add some load to it
Ok
Will my pc be fine if I remove the overlays?
All I want to do is just stream
And rec obv
you would have to try
you're free to post here, no need to dm
Got it. Ty
Does OBS.Live support YouTube live chat? Like so I can have a dock with YT chat that I don't have to keep changing all the time manually?
Also, we still limited to 10 "Twitter" accounts or has that been expanded upon? I'm at 8, but I have more than 10 game companies I'd like to get notified on.
Unfortunately no as YT integration isn't available yet and YT chat doesn't exist until the video is live unlike twitch or trovo.
And even then you wouldn't be able to login yet due to "security" reasons set by Google.
RIP, so I guess I'm stuck with the YT dash then.
I just wish I could move the yt chat to the left of the dashboard haha
For link whitelist, if I put in base URL sub-pages will work right?
Like minecraft.net/page-here or whatever
To my knowledge yes.
hopefully since I run a PG channel (hence a link 'allow list' [that sounds better to me than whitelist])
if I added emotes to BTTV and they said them in chat would they show in yt overlay via kappagen?
No idea unfortunately. Don't use YT (much less bttv) for this.
I wish there was a version of BTTV for youtube 😦
Guessing its not possible to 'copy' my merch store from twitch to YT?
It also seems SE.Pay isn't working on my YT end. I have ~250 subs on YT but it says 'over 100 followers' (I'm in Texas so I'm in US)
Hm does the chatbox widget not work on yt?
Your stream needs to be public
It is set to public. Not live yet but I want to test to make sure it looks good on my overlay
Then you need to be live and the stream needs to be public in order for the chat widget to work
well, that won't be till tomorrow afternoon I guess haha
it's almost midnight here I'm tired xD
Can I use "Custom" and have no background color for it to be transparent?
yes
good, cause I have custom animated overlay I'd like to have that show 🙂
This is weird... I have the overlay canvas on SE set to 1440p (like my OBS canvas is also 1440p) and in order for it to fit properly in OBS it has to look like this?
(might have figured it out)
The Overlay size is dynamic, but not the assets added to the overlay
if you resize the overlay, you need to readjust the assets inside to fit the new size
for some reason, Shutter Encoder converted it to webm at 1080p
so that was the problem
and not seeing a way to add a custom font. Is this not possible?
Google Fonts
More than 900 google fonts are supported at this time. You can preview them here: https://fonts.google.com/
Custom Fonts
Steps:
- Install the font on the streaming PC or choose a pre-installed windows font.
- In the overlay widget settings, select Text Settings
- Click on Enable Custom Font
- Type the name of the font as it appears in the windows font directory (This is usually
C:\Windows\Fonts)
Note: After installing fonts, the browser and OBS must be restarted for the font to appear.
No I mean as in a font I have on my system. It's called "African" and it's 100% freely usable commercially
Steps:
1) Install the font on the streaming PC or choose a pre-installed windows font.
2) In the overlay widget settings, select Text Settings
3) Click on Enable Custom Font
4) Type the name of the font as it appears in the windows font directory (This is usually C:\Windows\Fonts)
Note: After installing fonts, the browser and OBS must be restarted for the font to appear.```
So somehow it can read a font I have locally but use it on the web overlay?
Every software that is installed on your machine can read your locally installed fonts.
Some software even install fonts for you if they are made to have them in specific locations
so yes, somehow your browser has full access to your locally installed fonts and can be used in a web overlay
and OBS will also use that locally installed font 🙂
nice. Didn't know that
"African" is the closest font to Jurassic Park but 100% commercially useable
Woot I was able to merge like 6 sources into 1 via SE 🙂
Any idea on if "audio" source will be a thing? I have a custom background track I had commissioned I'd like to put in my Intermission screen.
Dont rush to make ALL your overlays online though, it is rare that Streamelements is down, however if/when it does happen you will be left with no overlays 🙂
Alerts of course, but not always best to have EVERYTHING else in a browser source 🙂
Tighter integration code for making OBS and YT play together nicely with OAuth 2.0 as the the authentication means has progressed to the point where the code has been committed and merged into the main OBS development branch. It's set for 27.1 which should solve a lot of the issues that OBS.Live has with login into YT for things like chat.
You probably won't be able to write in chat from OBS, but you'll see your chat stream like you can in StreamLabs at least.
I have a backup with the original sources available in scenes, but in general, this should improve performance if I have a game running on my chill screen since its animated overlay.
I am trying to setup SE.Pay for Youtube but I am getting an error that my channel is 1. too small or 2. I'm in the wrong region... how do I fix this? thanks!

- When live, be sure to look at Live chat instead of Top chat, as Top chat will hide the bot messages.
thanks!
Is it normal for the "Total Subscribers" and "Recent Subscribers" labels be slightly outdated? I gained some subs yesterday but the labels still haven't updated.
For YouTube - yes. YouTube has a delay on subscriber events specifically, so those might be a bit behind
Like over 6 hours+ behind?
Can be over 6 hours
Alright then. Thank you.
No mistake there. The text field is missing the variable for the message if you mean that one - please add it.
Then please describe your issue with all details
Do you have any alerts go off or show in the activity feed?
How do you know you're getting tips?
I'm trying to set up my OBS.Live for Youtube streaming, but when I try to log in to the chat widget its giving me the "Google Couldn't sign you in: This brower or app may not be secure"
is there any fix or workaround for this?
This is a result of Google's design, so we cannot change that
i'm also not seeing any notifs on my activity feed nor my Alert boxes, is that also part of Google's design?
i feel like i'm quickly learning why people say streaming on Youtube is such ass compared to Twitch in terms of UI, Features, and Useability
That is also a part of their design, alerts and such can be delayed to entirely passed
That's the one thing I don't like about YT streaming. I can't thank every sub that subs while live
Rest of it I'm happy with.
my youtube sub alerts not working in same time in active feed
Please see pinned messages for the explanation to this.
im also on my sub setting in my youtube but proprly not working alerts
Hey, I'm trying to add a name to my bot on OBS live, I've followed the guides but for some reason after setting up my bot I don't get any option on my activity feed...

Hey I'm having trouble getting my chatbot running in my youtube channel. Will it only work if I'm streaming live, or should it be showing if I'm streaming unlisted?
@sinful venture public only
that sure makes it difficult to test stuff out. ah well
How can I do so just subscribers can comment on my live stream

I'm not sure if youtube has a sub-only feature, but you can check with them to be sure
make sure you're also applying those changes to alert variations as well, these can override your main alert
Ok I am used to streaming on Twitch and making the change to youtube for when I do art streams. I have set up everything in OBS but when I go live, the activity feed and stream chat are still linked to twitch, not youtube... Is youtube chat and activity feed not integrated how twitch is?

@zinc flower What browser are you using?

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.
So i can't get the live update by any method
Is there any way to bypass this and get live subs alerts?
Thanks buddy.... Do you know any good donation alert for paytm, gpay, phonepe... I'm using streameasy but it doesn't provide alert variations.
Why can't i withdraw money? It is said that i need to have at least 5$ - i got 64 PLN which is something around 16 dollars.

Can i change the bot name?
YT doesn't support bot name change
Bro i have 6 subs on my channel but sub count shows 0 ??😭
Hey there, i was checking out what platform to use for youtube streaming and I really like stream elements. Is there still only 3 modules available for youtube?
???
Subscriber alert variations doesn't work.
How do I update my Streamelements user name to match what my YT channel is named now and not what it was named before?
The link I put in my streams for donations shows the old one and it is too long. I need to change it. Thanks!
Can anyone help me please i didn't get subscriber alert variations it only shows default alert on every new sub.
Did you change the Chance from the Variation? So that no one is 100%?
There are no such parameters bro
I also can't change this default parameter there are no such options for that
There are no such commands bro its youtube!
I also noticed thats why I deleted my message
Can you go in the Settings of "Copy of Alertbox"
I already shower you up there!⬆️
If I live stream on YouTube through OBS not OBS.LIVE. Will my browser events still populate? Aka subscribers and donations?
Yes, but note 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.
Well thats fun. So Twitch is instant?
You have to Variations, one Copy and one normal. But you only showed one
Setting of both are same... It just has another emoji
Is there any custom css command for this??
Usually this is possible via the normal interface. Unfortunately, I don't know what to do next. Maybe someone else can help you.
Ok, i just deleted my account and started over.
Just have one question, why can i activate se.pay on twitch but not on youtube?
Thank you in advance
Trying to setup overlays. It says "Grab scene links and paste them in your OBS.Live". Where is this?
What is OBS.Live? When I install this, it opens OBS.
@gilded glade if it's for the SakiZhen account you don't meet the requirements.
Yesterday I logged in with my YouTube account and I wanted to start a stream, but I couldn't, whenever I pressed 'Start streaming' nothing happens..
@main vector
You are incorrect my friend.
I have 10k subs and everything else checks out.
But thank you anyway,its fixed now :)
Well the one you had connected here for youtube is for your english account which doesn't meet them nor does it have your other channel linked anywhere visible outside of the upload descriptions.
Sorry, linked where?
So i can fix it?
But no, that account was only for a few test runs i made a few months ago
Linked to your discord.
ohh, thank you. Porbably a bug, because it shows my main account for me, but redirects to the other one.
Thank you 🙂
Does appear to be linking correctly now.
Thanks for the headsup, everythings working now 😄
i have been having problems with my alerts....
i cant hear it while streaming
but alerts are going off during the stream
when i check back the vod
please help
Did anyone had issues with starting stream on YouTube?

I hope this is the right channel, if not please redirect me! I checked out the Mercury addition last night and I'm wondering if you must do your descriptions through that site now vs using YT Studio? I set up the template to include XYZ in my desc but if I edit in Studio will it cause an issue?
#beta_mercury @ebon vigil for mercury questions
once you import your vids the existing description will be transferred too
I'd suggest editing it in mercury since that's some of the available functionalities (for example utilizing polls or widgets or templates)
once saved in mercury it should update on the vid itself within seconds
I also think changes you make to the vid's description on YT and not mercury will be reflected once the vid import functionality refetches information from your channel
Thanks so much, large server thought I might be asking in the wrong place 😅 I have additional inquiries I'll bring there
Hey, I already did a quick search and found out that I'm not the only one who is affected by the following issue: when I logged on the website and want to switch to another account to administrate these bot modules, I always get a redirect to streamelements.com
I already tried incognito, deleting browser cache, logging out... nothing is working and I'm not able to modify bot commands for a streamer.
is there a timeframe when this issue will be fixed?
@sleek arrow ⤵️
Please logout of StreamElements at https://streamelements.com/logout and then login again to your account (Twitch/YouTube/Facebook).
You and the other streamer has to do that.
ok, then it needs to wait till stream is finished 🙈 thanks for now!
Hi, I was having a mooch at overlays for Youtube as im considering streaming there sometime - I couldn't get the an overlay with the stream chat working. On the overlay widget there is an option to add the Youtube live chat - but nothing shows up. I had a second account in there trying to talk and it shows them chatting but nothing on SE overlay - I even did an unlisted stream from the account to see if thats what caused it, but nothing. Is the overlay widget broken? - Alerts seemed to work fine. Thanks
Breh I can't go live without comfirming
