@plain sonnet fo real the OBS version is causing this problem?
i have no idea
That video does nothing to show how to connect the bot
im not any tech person from se or obs
I can get to that point to and it doesnt add it to the list
please stop tagging people like that
the devs are working on this
you will have answers when we do
its likely the name danni wanted to use was already in the list. for example in the dropdown i have bettyblue as a name i can choose
but im trying to add a different twitch account as my bot
so it works out like that video and nothing happens, the new name doesnt show up
think we just have to wait for a fix
@chilly wagon You are gonna see a strange song in your MR queue - that was me, trying to test the loyalty. Disregard it 
@rugged quail What are you trying to achieve?
press ctrl+f
@chilly wagon
@chilly wagon So, since you are a broadcaster and i'm an admin for hte bot, we are exempt from the loyalty.
this means mods also can go past the loyalty requirement to use SR.

I think that solves @ashen raptor issue as well
Hi, I'm getting stuck on this page every time I try to log in. Any help, please? https://obsproject.com/logs/m0nie-Tg_hrS64uJ
when you select StreamElements at the top bar, does is say Log out or Log in at the bottom in the menu?
Log in, and when I click it.. The screen flashes and then does nothing
can you try to start OBS as admin please.
Did that, same issues.
Do you maybe have any virusscanner which is blocking the connection?
i do use avast, does it have to be completely disabled to work?
Please try to disable the AV and restart OBS and try to log in.
still happens, will try disabling adblockers and logging in
no adblock, no virusscanner, run as administrator.. still no luck
Sorry, but I don't have any solution for your problem here. I'll forward your problem internally.
ok, thanks a lot
Hi Team. I ran into a problem recently and wondered if you guys might have a solution.
When using OBS.live, at the end of my stream I like to raid other streamers I support. After raiding, the chat in OBS goes to the raided streamer's chat. There seems to be no way for me to get it to go back to my chat unless I restart OBS.
I am not sure, but maybe reloading the chat widget or closing and reopening works, also.
I tried that. It doesn't work. It reloads the raided streamer's chat.
The only way I've been able to see to get it back to my chat is to restart OBS.
I can replicate your issue.
You could try to log out of OBS.Live and log back in every time. Maybe this is faster than restarting OBS.
Ran Into this problem with clicking on a youtube link in my chat
Not sure how to get it back :I
Try to log out of OBS.Live and log back in.
Do I have to stop my stream?
No. Just select StreamElements at the top bar in OBS and select Log out and log back in.
Awesome that fixed it
thanks man ❤
OBSLive seems to want to open things up in its own browser
yes.
anyone know who the chat wont work on streamelements obs?
Do you see StreamElements at the top bar in OBS?
yes
Select Log out and Log back in please.
awesome that fixed it thank you
Hi I am having trouble with my stream, I don't know if its my settings or something but I feel like my stream as much further behind real time than two seconds
This depends on your internet speed i think. But this has nothing to do with StreamElements. In my opinion 2 seconds is a pretty good value, as some other streamers have up to 7 seconds or even more. Of course there are some with less than a second out there, too.
Oh ok sorry I thought it would be a problem with my settings, my upload is around 20mbps and my bitrate is around 6000 does that sound like that should be right?
Take a look at this information, if you are streaming to Twitch: https://help.twitch.tv/customer/en/portal/articles/2935005-low-latency-video-beta
thank you
any update on when the custom bot names will be fixed?
No ETA on when its going to be fixed.
Quick question, I clicked a link in the chat box attached to obs live, and it opened a picture of a pigeon, however I am unable to get back to my chat, any quick fixes other then relaunching?
My hero ❤
Huh?
Will OBS.Live be available for Mac users soon?
Its planned, but no ETA
Okay thank you. I’ve been looking for a stream deck to use also, but I didn’t see anything for Mac users.
Hello! My OBS live crashed and i cant close it :/
task maager doesnt work?
Nope... can't close it there neither
if not then a PC restart would be requiered
Is there any way to fix this next time? I try to add a video recording device then it crashes :/
probably not. Its not like this happens every day once.
Pretty sure it was a series of unfortunate events
sometimes the PC or system settings cant handle the load of streaming, encoding and all oter programms that work in the back
if this keeps happening we an start talk about it and digg into it
Can anyone help me real quick ? I cant figure out how to play music in stream without myself hearing it like so i can hear footsteps and stuff ingame. Dm me please 🤓
@halcyon vale Take a look at this: https://obsproject.com/forum/resources/voicemeeter-banana-audio-management-for-1-and-2-pc-streaming-setups.397/
^send same answer via DM.
Hello everyone, does anyone know why my follwer goal overlay is showing 2 more followers than I actually have and how can I fix this?
https://streamelements.com/dashboard/session -> goals tab
the goal progression only goes up but not down automatically
I clicked a twitch clip on obslive chat and it opened in the chat itself, now it won't go back to the chat, how do i fix it?
Streamelements on top -> logout @remote sail
Ahh got it @shy mountain thank you! Couldn't find that menu anywhere. Also another question recently saw you can change bot name. Where is "stream setting" in obs live?! Can't find it anywhere frustrating
Activity feed on the left -> widget data on the right to go back there.
While streaming?
yes
@crystal light Burger menu button on the Activity feed -> stream settings -> custom bot name
or check the pinned video in this channel.
@shy mountain Burger menu? I can find the video in the pinned user guides :( ther is a chatbot quick guide but doesn't address changing name. Do you have link to this video?
So in order to get back the chat, i have to logout, log back in, rearrange everything while streaming? is there an easier way like a restart button?
The link that opens like that is fixed, but a relog is needed to get the fix and revert chat back to normal
Oh ok, so it won't happen again?
It shouldn't
ok thanks!
i'm not getting host alerts when its not without a raid :s help?
i changed the minimum to 0 viewers but it still didnt work
I know this is more of a minor issue.. but is there any way to make OBS live remember it's window placement after an update or logging in/out? I always have to drag the windows around/resize them back to where I want them
@tacit meteor You activated the host alert in the AlertBox settings?
I maximised obs.live now the close minimise and resize buttons are missing HELP please!
How is that even possible???
Go down to your task bar and right click on obs
You can minimize it through there too
I would like to move the obs window to another screen and it won't let me
F11
Thats the full screen short cut, only way to have OBS full screen and not show title bar controls
This is the second time, the only way i fixed it was restarting obs
It is not full screen it's missing the top window layer i.e. x _
Will a screen shot help?
Probably not. If you are not seeing the title bar, and its not actually full screen, sounds like there might be something seriously wrong with windows itself
Why you not trying my thing? :(
To not maximize it
Right click on the obs task in the toolbar in the bottom and click the option to set it back to normal
Of its maximised that should work
You could also try to Chang the resolution of your monitor
Ok, changing the resolution worked, allowed the top of the obs window to be shown again.
What could be the cause of this guys?
Maybe your monitor or graphics card
This never happens to me when I bump my window on the top to maximise it
Sounds like a problem with your display in that case, and nothing with the software
Should i reinstall the graphics driver?
Hey guys I'm just trying to implement the !sr into my stream. I use OBS.Live along with SE - Ground Control. I have successfully managed to get the backup playlist in and added hot keys.
Where I am having issues:
- when I try to !sr or !songrequest no song pops into the queue.
- when I skip a song via hotkeys it actually skips three songs.
and yes the viewer request button is set to on (blue)
I've ensure there are only macros on in one location OBS.LIVE, vs Ground Control
@odd kraken yes I have and I have gone through all the settings and variations and it's still not working. Today I had a cheer and that didn't get an alert either
is it possible to download an overlay and edit in photoshop?
No. Downloading assets is against our Terms of Service.
Allright, thank you sir!
Is anyone else having issues updating OBS with this error?
@gaunt citrus For the best OBS support, please join their Official Discord @ discord.gg/obsproject
Is it safe to update to the new OBS version? Will it break OBS.Live?
I just wanna say thank you to whoever started adding all the social icons in the overlays. It makes it soo much easier to select the ones you want to use with the same theme. You're the true hero.
As a rule of thumb, don't update until the plugins you rely on inform the public of support for the update.
Ok, and I assume StreamElements hasn't done that yet?
Keep an eye on #announcements and #270206314561404928 for important information.
I found the solution to my problem, you have to go into task manager, in the details page, and force close the leftover obs-browser-page.exe that the updater leaves open.
well I updated and now I can;t use OBS. keeps crashing
It's ok on my end, that's why I commented my workaround, I'm sorry it didn't work as expected for you.
After the OBS update finally happened for me, an SE OBS update triggered, I let that run, and was back in action. What part hung for you?
The OBS updated fine, it was after the SE OBS update that it started crashing. it loads up and then as the SE plugins start to load it crashes
32bit or 64?
64
AMD A10 6700, Nvidia GTX 750
maybe it's the amd cpu
not sure, it's fine. I'll give the update another go tomorrow, sleep now 😃
Ok, enjoy your sleep, sorry for the false hope.
no worries, thanks for trying to help 😃
obs 23 rc2 fixes crash, quick holdover til they fix 😃
That's good news.
So I assume that updating OBS right now is a bad idea?
Heads up https://t.co/7oBZtkAlC2 users. We'll push an update to obs studio 23 soon. Do not update your obs meanwhile, it might result in a crash.
thanks for the heads up
I updated first then came here, now to play the waiting game lol
I recently switched from steaming on twitch to streaming on YouTube. When i logged out of my twitch account on obs live and try and log into my YouTube account, it only gives me an option to log into a twitch account. How do i log into a youtube account of obs live streaming
OBS.Live is just for Twitch atm. Youtube is planned, but no ETA.
Thank you
I keep trying to uninstall and it seems to get stuck. It shows the following
I'm uninstalling because I'm experiencing an issue when trying to connect my Twitch account with the latest OBS. It crashes every time I try to connect it so I'm slowly removing plugins
With the new update and NVENC being better should I use my GTX 760 to encode or keep it on x264
@solar loom For the best OBS support, please join their Official Discord @ discord.gg/obsproject
I ended up uninstalling OBS all together and manually removing files as needed
Uhh... is it normal that
I don't have a great pc so I'm wondering if using obs live plugin will impact my performance
It won't have a substantial impact, and using our cloud-based overlay system should lower overall usage versus locally hosted graphics and information.
Ah ok thank you very much
Is OBS.Live compatible with OBS 23.0 ?
Heads up https://t.co/7oBZtkAlC2 users. We'll push an update to obs studio 23 soon. Do not update your obs meanwhile, it might result in a crash.
ok, I already updated my OBS when the original 23.0 beta released and I couldnt even open OBS. Had to uninstall OBS live. Will keep my ears open to when they are compatible
I'm guessing since OBS now includes chat, you guys will be removing the SE Chat panel from OBS.live and just use the OBS one?
Also will you use the same Twitch account from OBS itself or will we need to sign in twice?
Please wait for the update release for information.
Looking forward to the update. Really like the OBS Live.
What do I do?! When is the OBS Live update?! I was supposed to stream 1 hour ago?
I don't have any insight on this but I guess this could take a few days.
My activity widget is showing nothing??
i have a ss if anyone would like to help me out
@pale marlin Log out and log back in via the StreamElements menu at the top.
Okay ill try that
still nothing
still staying blank
i also tried reloading the widget to see if maybe that would help but still nothing
Take a full uncropped screenshot of OBS please.
okay
chat works, everything else works except for the activity widget? I started obs today and it just did that, i gave it about 20 mins to see if maybe it was still trying to load, but nothing, i reloaded it, nothing. ran as admin. nothing. it just stays like that.
Hello , I am trying to add ovelay to my stream and other extensions. I downloaded Obs Live and Streamlabs. Not sure the next step
@rugged quail 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 :ballot_box_with_check: “Shutdown source when not visible” https://youtu.be/KDvLynUqXI4
Update. Tried uninstalling and reinstalling obs and streamelements and its still not workingt
So, A Stupid Question From An Idiot: I assume I cannot run OBS.Live on SLOBS?
no you cant lol @past mango
Fair enough!
lmaoo
well really I just picked SLOBS because someone got a dollar if I downloaded it 😛
How do I stream to facebook ?
Are you guys updating to the new OBS 23.0 too or is it going to take some more time?
We dont have facebook integration yet so its best to ask google in this case @rugged quail
@timber venture soon
Okay cool
What's the best way to downgrade back to a working version?
Uninstall plugin first then obs studio
Was really hoping I don't need to completely uninstall - I really dont want to risk losing all my profiles/scenes/etc..
Glad Monday isn't my stream day. lol
my issue was never resolved
Also old version https://github.com/obsproject/obs-studio/releases/tag/22.0.2
@shy mountain . I am almost there just can’t see my game
But profile is just the settings, what about scenes and sources, etc...
@rugged quail For the best OBS support, please join their Official Discord @ discord.gg/obsproject
Se on top -> log out then log in
i tried that
Login to pur dashboard ans see if you have events there
Did you first uninstall our plugin or OBS?
plugin
Hmm that shouldn't be like that.
Try running the uninstaller as admin.
@pale marlin So your events are most likely not showing up because the last time you've streamed and gotten an actual event is really far back.
Yes because i just followed to make sure the activity feed is not bugged.
Didn't even start as admin. I just downloaded last OBS over the existing version, (thanks for the link) then re-ran the OBS.Live installer and it seems to work
it used to show followers from months and months tho, but i have followers from like last week that arnt showing, yesterday everything was fine??
ive had friends follow since then tho?
Lazy friends? 
even when im offline
i have no idea, it just seems weird that everything was there yesterday but today its blank
is there a way i could have reset it to not show all the follows from before?
No.
We usually show the last 60 days.
But if there is no new event in 20 to 30 days, the activity feed goes blank to save space/memory/somthing
Hm okay, maybe its just because i havent streamed in 20 days lol
thank you!!!
i have peace of mind knowing that it works at least lol
hello, i can not figure out how to add my overlay to the scene. every yt video tells me to get it from wherever i saved it on the pc, but its not on my pc. i can only copy the overlay link from streamelements.
@boreal sable 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 :ballot_box_with_check: “Shutdown source when not visible” https://youtu.be/KDvLynUqXI4
well i did that, but that only gives like a third of the overlay...the rest is cut out or something (not the size thats the problem, its really just the third thats there)
I'm still having issues with the alerts
If its general alerts #helpdesk-twitch
host wont show up without raids, yesterday a cheer one didnt either
ah right let me go there then
So, I've used some time to get my alertbox working on my "INTRO" overlay.. is it possible to copy it to my "ingame" overlay? Or ddo i have to edit them all voer?
Click on it, layers on the left side -> 2 white papers with red dot -> copy to other overlays
So... When I try to connect my Twitch account it crashes.. I don't know if this is a OBS LIVE feature or normal OBS but when I uninstall OBS LIVE it isn't there..
connect your twitch to streamelements?
or to configurate your streamkey?
Connect twitch to obs live
and I would assume you are on OBS 23.0.0 right?
yup
not 22.0.2
correct 23.0.0
we need to update OBS.Live to that version since it just came out today
k 😃
Heads up https://t.co/7oBZtkAlC2 users. We'll push an update to obs studio 23 soon. Do not update your obs meanwhile, it might result in a crash.
new update?
yes!
@kind jetty you can update your OBS.Live now
so it works stable with 23.0.0
yay
is there an option to have your dashboard as a tab?
OBS Live has the dashboard integrated, when you selet the burger menu at the top of your activity feed in OBS.Live.
ah thanks
how to i get overlays to my stream
@rugged quail 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 :ballot_box_with_check: “Shutdown source when not visible” https://youtu.be/KDvLynUqXI4
Thanks!
OBS.Live Add-on now fully supports the latest OBS 23 update
Nice! Where is the download button for Mac?
Unfortunately there is no OBS.Live version for MAC available. It is planned, but no ETA.
Obs live update but it keeps crashing... anyone else with this problem?

yeas that works
Are you also on obs 23.0.0?
yes =]
after the last update i hear my voice in my head phone and unable to fix it. anyone got any ideas. help needed. thanks in advance.
@graceful thicket For the best OBS support, please join their Official Discord @ discord.gg/obsproject
@graceful thicket did you check advance audio settings
should be on not monitoring
@shy mountain my activity feed keeps on refreshing
yes been all through my sound setting on pc and in obs
weird and on the pc? you checked that one too?
@shadow lark when exactly does it crash btw?
About 2 hours ago. i might do a complete obs and stereamlab removal see if that fixers it
@graceful thicket if your are using slobs wrong discord
sorry ment elements
Check audio channel advanced settings cant rememeber what its called the option
@shadow lark when does it crash?
The unistaller doesn't complete the unistallation, how do i force it? it says it wasnt completed successfully
Almost at the get go.. it startes up.. i get the notification of the new update and boom it freezis
@languid glacier why are you trying to uninstall it?
@shadow lark you said you were on 23.0.0 and 339
To uninstall it
How are you getting an update notif?
@languid glacier im asking why. Is there a problem? Crashing? Tell me details please
No problem, just want to uninstall it
Reinstall obs studio then uninstall the plugin
send a report just in case
I saw the report
did it, it still doesnt let me remove the plugin
all fixed had desktop audio set to headphone. in OBS audio settings F i'm can be dumb at times
Run it as admin then @languid glacier
@graceful thicket ask the obs guys at their discord
Our plugin doesnt touch the audio settings
@shadow lark you sisnt answer my question
Silly thing won't let me connect my custom bot name. Probably have to go back to Ground Control if I can't figure it out.
I click "Connect Custom Bot account" and it puts me through two connect to twitch windows, without any explanation as to what I'm supposed to be logging into with those windows. I assume the bot account is the first one
Ran it as an Admin, this is what it says
Got it. Thanks!
@languid glacier restart pc and try again
@shadow lark the crash you are getting is suppose to be fixed. Did you try wuicky logging out from the settings menu?
gonna try it
@shy mountain no change
@languid glacier do you know how to go into safe mode of windows?
@shadow lark stay logged out from you twitch accoint and see if it freezes
kk
@shy mountain nvm. managed to do it. thank you very much
Also try logging out of the plugin and see id it cragmshes
okay so logged out..once i close it down its not responding
Cant tell reallu
So you are trying to close oba entirely and it doesnt close but freezes?
@shadow lark
yes correct
Huh
i have to force it to shut down
Can you check if you have a crash log in %appdata%
Obs folder then crash log folder?
is there an easy way of updating obs studio version?
Help > Check for updates, unless you are on 21.1.x, then you need to get the full install from OBS site
@shadow lark You can find the crash logs at this location in your windows system %appdata%\obs-studio\crashes
was on 19.x then restarted and now I'm on 21.1.0 so nvm... should be fine now shouldn't I ? xD
no
23 is the latest version
like I said, if you are on 21.1.x, you need to get the installer from OBS site
@wispy tinsel Read what Kite told you above. The version you are on now has a problem with the auto update mechanics. You have to donwload the latest version manually.
Reason to stay with streamelements?... I want to update to fix my problem, but can't even update cuz the installer crashes too :/ Im mad ik BabyRage
@odd kraken tried already...
ah... my bad 😅 will download from the obsproject site then 😃
Installer can't install files (at least half of them)
@odd kraken @warm pewter do I need to uninstall anything before installing 23.0?
no.
@odd kraken can't uninstall obs live cuz it wants to install it :/
@rugged quail have you tied to download the v23 of OBS and just installed that one? What is the error you are getting?
post in this channel please by drag and drop.
@odd kraken wbu me?
I am still with you. just trying to handel like 5 problems in different channels at one. sorry.
What OBS Version are you on right now? What are you trying to do? Are you trying to install OBS.Live or are you trying to uninstall it?
@shy mountain asked for this
Browser source is crashng Fault address: 7FFC61CF9B1D (c:\program files (x86)\obs-studio\obs-plugins\64bit\libcef.dll)
I would completely uninstall OBS Studio, make sure that no files are left in c:\program files (x86)\obs-studio\obs-plugins\64bit and then do a clean install of OBS 23
@warm pewter you are revering to me?
yes he is
yes
@rugged quail take a look what Kite suggest a vew lines above. maybe this helps solvng your problem, too.
do I have to reinstall all my plugins for audio?
Plugins for audio?
yes..filters and such
Most likely yes
did you uninstall Studio before our plugin?
i did
install it back and then uninstall our plugin
Quick help to thoose who struggle to update : Delete your obs fully and reinstall it then update
Worked for me.
it updated fine.. even streamed with that
but only now it keeps freezing
but reinstalling now
I have everything working but the default twitch stats and dashboard docks keep going when I restart the program? is this an issue with OBS.live or more OBS itself?
After a raid, the chat goes to the chat of the person I raided, how do I get my own chat back without closing the system? Do i have to log out of streamelements again?
Yes, think this is the actual way how to do this.
Thats so problematic.
Pretty sure that OBS 23 chat does the same thing, and that there is really nothing that can be done since its embedded Twitch chat, and that is how raids work
Wait... doesn't hitting the "refresh" button in the top left bring it back to you?
My main concern with this new integration with Twitch, at the moment anyways, is that it doesn't seem like there's a way to "test" stream without disconnecting the integration entirely and reverting back to stream key.... which I suppose is fine when using OBS Live
Since SE has their own chat and stuff.
Just wish the custom bot name worked with OBS live. Still basically no functionality for me with that integration until that's a thing
I know it's probably in the works, so no biggie
bot rename issue is being worked on. The integration piece to use instead of stream key is an OBS Studio thing, so nothing that we can do as its not related to our plugin
on the latest obs.live why do i need to login on the chat ?
What do you mean? You need to login for it to access your channel.....
to be able to use it I have to login
well, yeah, how else will it get to your channel
Have you tried logging in under options > streaming? it might be related to the 23 integrations
I logged in when I open obs
I am not talking about the OBS.Live login
I am talking about Settings > Stream > Connect Account
I use stream key, connecting my account like that will only give obs studio access to my email, stream key and subs
the chat window gets premission from SE's obs.live extention
If you dont want to try it, i dont really know what else to tell you then besides logging in when prompted
is that obs.live chat or obs chat?
Is it normal that I can't access the update Twitch console with a linked profile?
Like the bit that lets you set the stream title and so on
I can't get an activity feed to appear in OBS.ive. Its not in the available docks. Is there some other way to make it appear?
StreamElements > Activity Feed
can i have help 😛
every time i try to connect with twitch to obs.live its loading forever just left my computer open for an hour still didnt load 😛
Did you update to the new version?
Hmm @split gazelle . I don't see Activity Feed there
ok i fixed it 😃 @split gazelle
^^ There
Gives you highlights of your Twitch activity.
Mine looks like this:
Logout and log back in
So does me having SE.Live disable the OBS UI to let me set my stream title and all that?
I noticed last night that if someone raids, I get both a raid and a host notification live on Twitch for them -- is there something that will prevent that?
No, as Twitch sends us a host and a raid notification when someone raids you.
What I did in this situation, @devout vortex, I have disabled raid alert and only did host. Since host is ALWAYS going to be triggered. When the event happens, you can see in chat if they raided you and address it then.
Same for Activity Feed
Thank you @shy mountain and @split gazelle . Got it to work finally
@limber juniper That's a good option -- I might try that out. I don't want hosts to not be announced, and raids are amazing so I don't want them missed either, but we don't need both announced when it's a raid XD I'll play with that a bit on my alert profiles!
with raids, they are hard to miss. You get people spamming emotes in chat normally and you see the text from Twitch in chat notifying of the raid. It was the best solution that I felt comfortable with. Hopefully you do too! 👍
Sorry I just found the answer. If anyone lose the "Stream Info" dock from OBS 23.0.0, disconnect the Twitch account and reconnect and you'll get the options for it all again.
go to the streamelements menu tab at the top and select what you need
@plain sonnet Sources isnt there
sources? what are you trying to open
Source
this?
yes
right click on scenes and click sources
Thank you so much!
np 👍
when using media request i try to set the delay to 20 seconds but then when the song is done it automatically goes to the next song and starts playing with no delay
Hey guys, Fenrir from the OBS team here. I'm investigating reports that your new plugin is breaking our integration features, and when I installed it from the website to test I noticed that you're shipping version 21.1.2 with the installer? This version is very outdated, and should not really be distributed anymore.
so i updated the last ver and now i can not see my alerts
@pine walrus Big boi here
I will pass this to our devs. Thank you.
We'd actually prefer you didn't ship a build of OBS at all, as it causes confusion that your plugin is actually a build of OBS itself.
And just installed the plugin.
However, that's just our ask :)
Also noted, thank you 😃
so ??
What do you mean you can't see alerts?
when using media request i try to set the delay to 20 seconds but then when the song is done it automatically goes to the next song and starts playing with no delay
That doesn't tell me or show me much.
No StreamElements menu, means OBS.Live is not installed
@feral stream Ty, I will see if I can reproduce this and see that our QA knows about it.
@warm pewter so what should i do
If you want to use OBS.Live, you need to install it 
because you havent updated it after updating obs
Corrupt install 
oh okey
Hi, what is the command to add a new command?
@hardy tulip You can make changes to custom commands in chat with!command add/remove/edit/options/show Valid flags for !cmd options are: -cd (number) -usercd (number) -cost (number) -level (number) -type (say, whisper or reply) -count (number). --- Example: !cmd options twitter -usercd 60 -type reply -level 250
Any plans to add chat panels for restream.io?
I don't think so.
:(
no plans, this would mean se would need to have api's for every streaming service which isnt the best thing. but as restream has their own chat app there really isnt a reason to do it
Except it sucks. Lol
Guys, as i have a dedicated stream pc, would the new nvenc coding with the latest release of OBS. Would this benefit at all?
can someone explain to me how i get an overlay from the theme gallery onto my OBS
@stoic lagoon 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 :ballot_box_with_check: “Shutdown source when not visible” https://youtu.be/KDvLynUqXI4
i would say so, to take the credit of @warm pewter knowledge,
The new NVENC completely changed how OBS handles frames. With the new it will pass the frames directly from the GPU vram to the encoder, where previously it would send the frame to system ram, and then pass to the encoder. With this, there are major performance improvements. With the Psycho Visual Tuning, you can also get a better quality image, although it will only be a minor improvement on anything that is not RTX, or the GTX 1660Ti
Fine, but how does this all compare to a dedicated pc with X.264 CPU enconding vs the latest NVENC encoding? Should I change from X.264 encoding to that?
And the gpu in question is the GTX1060
Hi, I have a question/problem. I am trying to add a custom bot but when I log in with the bot account, I get to the screen where I need to connect my twitch. So my bot account is turning into a real twitch account instead BOT. Can somebody help me?
If you have a dedicated streaming PC, and can do x264 at medium preset, there is no reason to use NVENC. Only if you have an RTX card can NVENC match the quality of x264 medium, and be better in some instances, like font
Thanks @warm pewter appreciate your comments
anything on the settings side to help me deal with my drop frames?
streaming at 720p

''Hi, I have a question/problem. I am trying to add a custom bot but when I log in with the bot account, I get to the screen where I need to connect my twitch. So my bot account is turning into a real twitch account instead BOT. Can somebody help me?''
There is a known issue with the bot not renamig. We are working on a fix.
Ahh okey, So I can't do anything about it right now? Just wait for a fix?
yes, we are sorry for the inconvenience. You can use the tool Ground control to rename the bot.
Okey thanks for your time! 😁
Hi there. When I broadcast, I have a strange green colouration to my output with thick green bars across the screen. Happened since I updated earlier today. any idea why?

Is there a reason why my streams is now pixelated?
When I start a game its like i'm playing minecraft on my whole screen ?
I see the bitrates droppin and going up like hell , they aren't even stable
Just wanted to pop in and say the new version (with obs 23) worked amazingly today - smoothest stream I have had yet. 
I had the worse stream ever
@bright oyster Can you please provide a log from your last stream. In OBS go to Help > Log Files > Upload Last Log File. Once this is complete, please provide the link to the log file.
There is no output session in this one. Please upload a log file where you have streamed.
second I will make a clean log 😉
@odd kraken saw your above message - how can I change the bot name with ground control? I meet all the requirements in obs live but it doesn't show up in the cog menu in ground control
I need some help please
@waxen peak Custom bot name requirements
- StreamElements bot modded and in chat
- Active overlay with alerts
- StreamElements tipping page in the panels below the stream (!panels)
- Create a twitch account for the name you want to use
- Ground Control app must be running
Steps to enable custom name
- Sign in to https://twitch.tv with the bot account
- Install and run Ground Control (!gc for download)
- Visit https://twitchapps.com/tmi/ and generate an oAUTH token
- Copy/paste everything in the box to Ground Control oAuth settings and enter the name for the bot account
- Restart Ground Control (custom name may take a few minutes to take effect)
Mac does not currently support renaming the bot.
Please make sure you meet all the requirements and follow the steps closely.
I have 😃
what exactly does active overlay with alerts mean?
I have an overlay on my overlays page with alerts
@odd kraken Can you check my log 😃
https://obsproject.com/logs/whuzkBIc8R6joqsn
tell me why my bitrate is going like crazy ?
Its just when i'm in a game
never had this issue before
@bright oyster For the best OBS support, please join their Official Discord @ discord.gg/obsproject
Sorry, but I have no idea why your bitrate is going like cracy. Better to ask this in OBS Support.
@stuck glacier Welcome to the support channel! Please let us know how we can assist you today and a member of the support staff will be with you as soon as possible.
how do I add an overlay to my obs
@stuck glacier 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 :ballot_box_with_check: “Shutdown source when not visible” https://youtu.be/KDvLynUqXI4
@waxen peak You have to create a panel with a picture and link the StreamElements Tip Link.
oh it needs to be a picture not just a link?
yes.
kk, should specify that in the support response as OBS Live gives you the checkmark just for the link 😅
Thanks!
Anyone think they can help with this? Asked yesterday but it may have gotten lost in the mix.
SengbingYesterday at 3:02 PM
Hey guys I'm just trying to implement the !sr into my stream. I use OBS.Live along with SE - Ground Control. I have successfully managed to get the backup playlist in and added hot keys.
Where I am having issues:
- when I try to !sr or !songrequest no song pops into the queue.
- when I skip a song via hotkeys it actually skips three songs.
and yes the viewer request button is set to on (blue)
I've ensure there are only macros on in one location OBS.LIVE, vs Ground Control
Hi. Since the update OBS is crashing on close and the chat etc has vanished.
Is there a fix? Sorry if it's already posted elsewhere but I couldn't find anything.
Have you updated OBS.Live? What version are you running?
Sorry. Is there a way to turn down the volume for just Media Request? I have it turned as low as possible, and it's still almost half way the desktop audio mixer. The only thing I can think of is to turn down the desktop audio and turn up everything else. Do other people have their desktop audio low and I'm just dumb? 😂
It's your most recent update.
Number please.
@midnight minnow It still uses YouTube audio. Go onto YouTube and lower things there, see if that helps.
That's OBS, not OBS.Live. What version of OBS.Live is installed?
Bottom right corner.
19.2.2.26.339
I've managed to get back the plugin by relogging into SE on OBS but it's still going to not responding on closing the app.
It's not a big issue but it's an annoying one.
Haven't heard of that happening before. Is it being run as an administrator?
I believe so but I'll try that as well. Not had this issue until the last time I closed it.
Running as admin and it still locks up.
Let me give it a restart and see if that'll fix it.
Yep. Still going unresponsive on close.
Maybe it's an isolated issue but my new PC arrives in a couple of days so it'll be a brand new install anyway. I can cope with it doing this for now.
i accidently minized all my task bars on the bottom (scene, Sources,setting) how do i make them reappear
At the top bar in OBS > View > Docks > enable whatever you need
Thanks!
Is obs Live fixed now?
yes.
I can update both and no issues?
I recommend downloading the latest version of OBS Studio at their website https://obsproject.com/de/download and installing it and then download OBS.Live https://www.obs.live/ and install that afterwards.
Will there need to be another update to obs.live for the hot fix obs just pushed?
How could we possibly know that when they've literally just released it?
It needs to be looked at.
Sorry I was just inquiring
I'm not a dev but I don't see anything in the hotfix notes that would require our attention, and I just updated without issue.
Hello. I have a question about the install of obs.live. When installing the OBS.Live plugin, is there a reason why we can't deselect download and install fresh copy of OBS studio? I literally just got done doing that.
It should be deselected by default.
How do i get the panel for updating stream info on my OBS?
The one to change titles and such 😮
That's interesting.
I honestly don't know what to tell you there.
Did you install OBS Studio in a directory other than the default?
oh that's a good idea. Yeah I don't put anything on my C drive. I'll test that. Also obs studio had a hotfix update to 23.0.1.
I'm aware, just installed it myself.
Mostly to make sure nothing broke. 
I'm not a dev, so I can't go deep into it, but it seems okay...
That's exactly what it was. When I changed drives it changed from deselected as default to selected by default.
¯_(ツ)_/¯
lol good thinking!
If anyone is available can someone help me in the voice support. I am trying to switch from SLOBS to this, but have a few questions and really would just like to ask someone
Just post your questions here and we'll try to assist you.
everytime i have tried to download obs live i get this and when i click close and resume it stops the whole installation
what OBS Version are you on?
23.0.1
hola como conecto el streamelements con nonolive??
also cant seem to uninstall it either i had used it before and had no problems but the update had messed everything up and now i keeps aborting any kind of uninstallation of the program for me to even retry to download it
@wind tartan Please download the version 23.0.1 of OBS Studio here https://obsproject.com/download and install it.
After that download OBS.Live please https://www.obs.live/ and install it. See if you keep getting the same error.
i have already done this
For me this worked fine. I am sorry, but I don't have any solution for your problem. Maybe another supporter can help you here.
@wind tartan where are you doing the uninstall from?
so how long should i wait between entering my bots OAuth from the link into Ground Control and closing the app to opening the app back up and seeing if the bots name has changed to the custom name?
You only need to close and reopen if the bot says the message multiple times.
Just part the bot, rename, and join the bot.
so it's only showing the name as the twitch account name not the custom name i made in ground control
Did you make an actual Twitch account for the bot?
You can't just name it anything. It needs an associated account.
yea i did already
Were you logged in with that account when you generated the OAuth token?
yes
In Twitch?
yea
Alright, take a screenshot of Twitch to show you're logged in with the bot before generating the token again and trying again.
So been getting frame drops/low FPS while streaming Apex on x264.
I have a Ryzen 7 2700x + 1060 3GB, all ingame settings set to low.
I stream at 720@60 5000bitrate
@hidden cloak Since Apex Legends doesn't have optimized GPU drivers yet, it tends to take up all your GPU resources, leaving nothing for OBS. If you're having OBS performance issues, you'll likely need to limit the game somehow. The easiest way to do this is to enable Vsync in the game, or use a frame limiter. You can limit the game to 60fps by adding +fps_max 60 to the game's launch properties in Origin.
https://twitter.com/OBSProject/status/1093974215877951493
If you stream @PlayApex and are having FPS issues with OBS due to a maxed-out GPU, you'll need to reduce GPU usage so that OBS can run as well. The quickest way to do this is to enable Vsync with triple buffering and disable Windows 10 Game Mode. https://t.co/FOPmDyJMNx

Many many thanks mr. bot
Alright, so go ahead and generate a new OAuth token and paste it into Ground Control.
what's the link for OAuth tokens again?
It's in Ground Control.
Do you use OBS.Live?
Yea
Did you select your Twitch name in there?
Because if you use OBS.Live you should use that for the rename instead of Ground Control.
where is the rename function in OBS.Live?
Menu in the top left of the activity feed.
when it asks me to login to twitch for the custom bot name do i use my twitch bot account or my normal account?
For now disable it in OBS.Live completely, tell it to use the default bot name.
OBS.Live's rename is having issues, forgot about that for a second.
Now try renaming in Ground Control again.
No.
So I have a razor keyboard and it has 5 macro keys how can I use them on OBS
@quiet wraith For the best OBS support, please join their Official Discord @ discord.gg/obsproject
@quiet wraith if you are trying to control MediaRequest with these buttons try to assign them in the activityfeed in OBS.Live in the burger Menu.
I figured it out Thank I just binded my macro to like ctrl shift 1
and Added that as my OBS scene swithc
One question how can I test alerts
@quiet wraith To test/emulate alerts, hover over the blue bell at the bottom of the overlay editor. From here you can select the type of event and the amount to test.
OK thanks
Is there something i'm missing or is there no ability to randomize the backup playlist? I could've sworn you guys used to have that back before Ground control was a thing.
There is not.
Should i be on the lookout for it in the future?
hello im having troubl e with alert as when i test it shows in overlay editor but not ibn obs
Anybody??
Ok nobody
if you're just testing the alerts it won't show up on obs i believe
Not On Stream Either
It will show in OBS if the overlay was added properly
Ok
There are rare cases that antivirus will block it, or if your system has a killer nic
Is there a separate thing for alert box to add on OBS?
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 :ballot_box_with_check: “Shutdown source when not visible” https://youtu.be/KDvLynUqXI4
Ok 👍
any idea when the chatbot custom name will be working on OBS.Live?
This is video I’ve watched alert
Already
I just need alert box to show on stream
Then add your overlay to OBS that has the alert widget in it, its a pretty simple concept, especially if you watched the video on adding overlays
It does have it in it but won’t show
you can't just move around the alert box in OBS
you have to move it around on your dashboard when editing your overlay
Make sure it was added correctly, and not behind another source
!obslog
Can you please provide a log from your last stream. In OBS go to Help > Log Files > Upload Last Log File. Once this is complete, please provide the link to the log file.
Bye

I want a log to try to help you, but if you dont want to do that, then whatever, its on you
@daring moon devs are working on the rename issue with OBS.Live. I thought you got it working through Ground Control for now
negative ghost rider it still is showing as my twitch account name i have for my bot not my custom name i tried to put in to Ground Control
got the logs now what
@daring moon Thats how the rename works, it uses another Twitch account for the name, you cant just give it whatever name you want, it needs to use another account for the name
@abstract widget learn to have some patients
so then it's not really a custom name it's just use another twitch username?
interesting
It is a custom name, it just uses another Twitch account's name. Its the only way for it to have a custom name, as it uses that account to post to chat, there is no other way it could work with how twitch works
ok gotcha
so it is a name of a twitch account instead of just using Streamelements bot as the name
@abstract widget only thing that stands out is that you have mcafee anti-virus, and windows defender. Mcafee is trash and could be part of the probelm. You are also using a laptop, so the problem could be with the GPU OBS is using and what the system ia using, you might need to change OBS to use the integrated GPU or set the system to use the Nvidia GPU
Gotcha
@daring moon correct. It basically makes it so the bot uses the other account as a proxy to post to chat

Thx
@warm pewter you're the best
I need Help my OBS FPS is low but My game its really high any Help ?
@quiet wraith For the best OBS support, please join their Official Discord @ discord.gg/obsproject
@rugged quail Well I don't see on what current version you are, but if you want latest fixes, you should always be up to date with everything. Make sure you are first on 23.0.1 and then update Live.
Give more details
IF you are using Team Viewer or something similar to look at your 2nd PC
its going to lag regardless.
Then I'm not understand what you are doing.
Is there a way to turn off viewer count in OBS?
Thank you.
@rugged quail Explain exactly what you are doing.
@rugged quail Can you please provide a log from your last stream. In OBS go to Help > Log Files > Upload Last Log File. Once this is complete, please provide the link to the log file.
I will not even toss this log in the analyzer. Your CPU is from 2010 and you are using integrated graphics.
Too low of a PC spec to have a stable stream.
That is why you will get freeze frames
Hey Guys so I reinstalled OBS to newest version then when I want to update OBS.live plugin I'm getting error during instalation... if I skip the .dll files during instalation OBS won't start then.... any ideas?
Yes - reinstall again
without skipping anything
when you uninstall, restart PC
run installer of OBS Studio as admin
then run our installer for the plugin.
DLLs is what makes most programs work - skipping them will make programs not work.
@shy mountain ok, all i had to do was uninstall -> clean registry -> restart-> install obs -> restart again (when I didn't I got ".dll instalation error") -> then install obs.live plugin... Strange what 1 restart can do 😄
was I supposed to lose most of the chat setting options? I had most if not all of these yesterday:
https://gyazo.com/4472e1eb525aa7fbf22ecf6a7961aa47
Now I only have these:
https://gyazo.com/0b9d7daca62cab6bcae1e5a4fa6d186c
You might be looking at the obs integrated chat
i updated obs cause of their hotfix and then I updated obs.live again >_<
did it screw up?
how do i get obs.live chat back then? Cause it is checked under the streamelements tab
yep so does mine
and it doesn't have all the settings? 
correct
log out and log back in?
When it doubt "Did you try turning it off and on again" fixed 
haha yeah i'm still waking up, my brain didn't get that far
Good morning, does anyone know when the plugin will have support for osx?
Its planned. No ETA
I see, thanks @shy mountain, in a few months I will be only using macbook, since I will be moving to another country, but I can use just obs studio
sadly wont have custom bot name for sometime
I can't guarantee its going to be out then.
good morning, does anyone know why OBS Live won't uninstall from OBS 23.0.1? It seems to be stuck saying 'Installation Aborted' 'setup was not completed successfully'
Any particular reason you want to remove OBS.Live? As in, what issue are you facing that is making you want to remove the plugin?
Also I just replied to your tweet.
I was trying to figure out why it had disabled/removed my Twitch stats when installing the latest version of OBS Live
Check my tweet 😃
i had the same issue my self then I just relogged within the OBS integration and they showed up.
@StreamElements why when installing OBS Live does it disable the Twitch Stats panel? Its hugely annoying to lose something i wanted to see just to get my Activity Feed into OBS...
must be slow my end, your a beast tho Keizar, doing what you said now after i've fixed my OBS Live 😃
I think I found an issue just now and will have to confirm with the devs if its us or something on OBS' side that is our of our control.
Is the new OBS hotfix safe to install?
for 23.0.1 and 23.0.0 - yes
the crashes have been fixed.
Any other types of crashes - most likely you will have to reinstall OBS entirely.
nah i dont have any crashes, just saw a hotfix so figured i'll ask before updating
If you are asking about the 23.0.1 hotfix its from the OBS guys
yeah
but its safe to update with OBS live is what i was asking about, but good to know! :)
some people reported a lot of greenscreen lines on their streams adn that got fixed.
yes
ah awesome, thanks :)
is there a 'remote' mobile app that i can use for stream elements?
No.
no doubt you guys already know this but i think i shoul dhave posted this here
docks are missing when installing newest OBS.live with v23.0.1
I literally found this issue before you even reported it in #general-chat 😉
in between helping this dude I found an issue with the docks - restarting OBS removes them and we've notified the devs about it.
You came right on time confirming this for me as well 
yeah well ive tested like 3 different fresh installs over last 2 days
all yield same results
as soon as obs.live is installed it removes them
Going to settings -> stream -> disconnect -> connect twitch
fixes the docks, until you restart OBS.Live 
But just having obs 23.0.X doesn't remove the docks regardless how many times you restart.
this is definitely, not our intention and the devs will sort it out
ok cool that sorted it
maybe the obs.live login, kicked the original obs twitch out
thanks for the fix
😃
can someone help me pls
since i have updated my obs my c920 webcam keeps freezing FeelsBadMan
@cinder fern For the best OBS support, please join their Official Discord @ discord.gg/obsproject
@rugged quail You don't stream to us. You stream to either twitch or youtube.
Since you have OBS.Live installed it only supports Twitch
I use twitch
Then place your streamkey in OBS
setup your settings and stream
Here is a guide for OBS https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BtZazqLgBjw
Thank you
@shy mountain you are probably aware of this but when switching profiles in OBS to a profile that doesn't have OBS.Live connected and back again to a connected profile it hides the Twitch integration panels. Logging out and back in again resolves it
just to let you know 👌
Switching profiles 
noted will include in the report for the devs
will test it as well, thanks.
Guys, thanks very much for the hotfix. My freeze is fixed as I see it was caused by G HUB which I have installed and plugged in for my headset.
As always, BEST streaming platform you could possibly use. Thank you ❤
Also, whenever I update OBSlive, I have to rearrange the windows to my preference. Every time. Ex: I like keeping the chat window on the left side instead of right. And after each update, I have to move it again
@stark turtle I think there is no way to keep your settings, as for the OBSv23 there has been added new windows in the version. So we set it back to default I think, to prevent any troubles.
is there a way to have a keybind for media request in obs live? to pause and play and skip songs preferably
Yes - in the settings of the MR widget in OBS.Live
thanks
@serene charm That hotfix was from OBS Studio, had nothing to do with us or our plugin https://twitter.com/OBSProject/status/1100539990298087424
Take the love hahaha.
@crisp heart So Heres the thing. I'm currently on clean OBS 23.0.1 version. This Profile switch (where you click Profile on top and choose another profile), seems to be part of OBS.
So I switch to a new profile/clean one and I notice the twitch integration is missing. I went to "Settings" and saw that it wanted me to login with my account again.
So by definition, OBS guys have most likely set it so, different profiles, different accounts can be connected.
how do I add an SE overlay into SE's OBS.Live?
because adding the overlay scene's url as a browser sources does nothing
@robust niche 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 :ballot_box_with_check: “Shutdown source when not visible” https://youtu.be/KDvLynUqXI4
I'll try 1920x1080
I have a request in the mean time.
I would like to request the ability to grab an overlay's url without having to "launch" it
A second request.
The ability to manually start the intro screen's count-down.
Set this source with the Overlay to "Shutdown when not visible". Everytime you select the scene, it will start the countdown from the beginning.
@robust niche Here is the StreamElements Ideas Board: https://strms.net/ideas
I'll still submit the "manually start count-down" request.
Because of the load time, can't rely/time the option Benno mentioned
how do i setup a overlay in OBS?
@wispy crescent 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 :ballot_box_with_check: “Shutdown source when not visible” https://youtu.be/KDvLynUqXI4
seems the media request is still detecting i dont have the media widget in my overlays is it still a known bug?
my overlays aren't appearing in obs.live
Hello, since the update my OBS isn't showing the chat and the news feed and the button to add them again isn't where it used to be.
@worn mesa Are they set to the right dimension and are they the first source in OBS?
You don't have installed the plugin of StreamElements. You have to insall it.
Maybe the update of OBS deinstalled our plugin.
Uhm where do I find this plug in? @odd kraken
hello all ive got a problem running obs and gaming the same time when obs is running my game stutters but the stream is fine when i use other software like nvidia shadowplay my game runs fine and stream is great ive got a 9700k and 1080ti and 16gb ram any suggestions?
what game are you playing?
apex

my bot disapeared after the new update, and now i don't remember how to get him back. it is the streamelementbot, only with a custom name
The custom name feature in OBS.Live is currently not available. We are working on a fix. In the meantime you can use GroundControl to set the custom name.
mjaha, you fixed something that wasn't broken xD
well thanks, ill wait for the fix ^^,
@warm pewter Just again something weird , I just streamed 30 minutes perfect... on the same game and suddenly again my game gets pixelated... Then the connection is back normal ?
The biggest question is , I'm streaming of 1 year on the same way and never had an issue with my ISP or this pixel thing!
The pixel thing started when they made an update? Or is the issue a windows update? Because my pc did an update on 25/02 ( KB4100347: Intel-microcode-updates ). hmmm
i'm uninstalling the update
@analog oar I just tested to get my custom bot name with OBS.Live and it worked. Maybe you want to test it on your end, too.
Hey there, having an issue with uninstalling OBS.live. I uninstalled OBS before anything, and now the uninstall aborts. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.
Download the latest OBS Sudio version (23.0.1) and install it. After that download the latest OBS.Live version and install that, too.
Almost! Still aborts on the
Execute: "C:\Users\spenc\AppData\Local\Temp\nsx9D49.tmp.exe" /S /D=C:\Program Files\obs-studio
While the OBS installation or OBS.Live?
So, I installed the latest versions of OBS and OBS live, right? Now I'm trying to uninstall OBS live.
and that's what I get when it aborts.
Here's what I am seeing.
Ultimately, I wanted to uninstall every instance of OBS I had and reinstall just OBS.Live to it's newest version. But it wouldn't let me after I had uninstalled OBS first.
well, that would seem to be the problem if you uninstalled OBS Studio first then tried to uninstall OBS.Live. You would need to manually clean up the OBS.Live files in that case. Or just install the latest OBS Studio, and let OBS.Live update when promoted when you launch OBS Studio.
Just for added reassurance, just manually delete all OBS and OBS.live files/folders. This will also act as "uninstalling"?
you can delete them all, unless you want to maintain your profiles and scene collection, then you will not want to delete all the folders under %programdata%

Do I have to manually edit in my social media links to my overlays?
Yes.
alright, thankyou
Hey, I have the media request widget in my overlay but obs live keeps saying it was not detected
Are you trying to play the tutorial video?
Did the obs HitFix somewhat break obs.live? I have my chat and stream info, but no activity feed.
Do you have the StreamElements menu at the top?
I do not
Reinstall OBS.Live.
Seeing it with some people, that the installation's no longer connected to OBS.
Fixed again! A+
how can i get bttv enabled in my chat on obs.live 23.0.1 (64 bit)
It should be by default.
hmmm its not. ill try and re log.
You're likely using their chat.
Not ours.
The chat built into OBS 23 doesn't have it.
Use the chat that you toggle in the StreamElements menu at the top.
OBS.Live is a plugin.
For OBS Studio.
It's not its own version.
Technically speaking with OBS 23 you can have two chat windows in OBS.
It's kinda funny.
im using the chat from the streamelements drop down menu
One is enabled through View>Docks>Chat
One is through StreamElements>Chat
If the chat has the smiley face, it's the right one.
yeah i know when bbtv is there. i use on the webrowser allllll the time. lol its the only thing im missing from SLOBS that i dont have now.
SLOBS? This isn't Streamlabs.
lol im aware. i meant as in from switching over. its the only thing im missing.
Again, it's enabled already when using the OBS.Live chat, but not with the OBS 23 chat. Check both of the menus and ensure that it's not checked in View>Docks>Chat, and that it is checked in StreamElements>Chat
i dont even have a chat option under. View > Docks.
i only have chat under Streamelements > Chat
Screenshot your entire OBS.
does anyone know if the obs studio hotfix removed the stream info dock or is mine just broken for some reason?
This is a known issue and we are trying to find the source for the problem.
In the meantime you can go to Settings > Stream > Disconnect Account -> and reconnect your account. The windows should pup up after you hit "ok".
Note, when you restart OBS or switch profiles you have to do the same procedure to get the panels back.
@fresh sundial Okay, that is our chat, and it does have both BTTV and FFZ enabled. You can see the smiley face in the top right of the chat box too. If you're concerned, reload the chat widget with the button in the top left.
ah ok ty
FFZ emotes work, ty. unfortunately BTTV still are not working.
hi trying to set up alerts but when im setting it up it shows up on only half of it, how to fix pls?
@verbal briar 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 :ballot_box_with_check: “Shutdown source when not visible” https://youtu.be/KDvLynUqXI4
Am i the only one OBS is dropping frames like crazy with the New update? idk if is the OBS live, or the Regular OBS, can you guys help me out? :S
@radiant cosmos Can you please provide a log from your last stream. In OBS go to Help > Log Files > Upload Last Log File. Once this is complete, please provide the link to the log file.

I am playing around with Media Request
I am using OBS with the StreamElements OBS Live integration. The Media Request Widget is added via StreamElements Overlays.
Now when I say Show on stream it will generate an echo with the only sound source beeing OBS, how can I fix that?
@tawny drum Make sure to :ballot_box_with_check: “Shutdown source when not visible” for all browser sources (all OBS scenes). If using studio mode, uncheck “Swap Preview/Output scenes After Transitioning.” Also keep in mind that sound can play from any overlay loaded in the browser (editor or launched). https://i.imgur.com/FegZJQS.png https://i.imgur.com/yY0wcFl.png
Thats it. I have 2 scenes with the Media Request active. It's working now. Thank you!
can any body help me with my obs settings because iam trying to stream with gpu encoding and my internet upload speed is 1 mbps
You're not going to be able to stream even remotely well with 1Mbps upload.
360 p 😃

@tulip hamlet so what is the min limit to be able to stream like 480 at least
Honestly if you can't hit 2000 bitrate, don't bother. Which you shouldn't do without at least 2.5Mbps upload.
thanks bro
If you want a quality stream, shoot for at least 7.5Mbps upload.
And use 6000 bitrate, which is the max Twitch allows.
oh okay ty again
When ever i try to connect a custom bot i get to this page https://i.imgur.com/oMqhA4z.png Then i try to connect with twitch and get the activity feed and click Continue Setup and then OBS in the background updates to this https://i.imgur.com/2DSzRUj.png I then close the custom bot login window and click the Do It Later in the main OBS window and then I'm back to the panels view and everything has bee reset

@echo tapir After you select "Connect with Twitch" please just try to close the window.
In the activit feed it should have changed from "Connect custom bot account" to "Remove custom bot account"
Thx it worked @odd kraken Finally i can get rid of ground control (as you can guess not my favorite program)
hopefully this is the right chat room, I had to update OBS & OBS LIVE love love love last night but since then everytime I go live a popping static sound comes through my headset ( but not my speakers ) and onto my show. I was forced to reboot but only fixed it for a few minutes, we had to forgive me please go back to SLOBS to see if it was us or the software or such and it works fine other then it's SLOBs and all the issues that has. I Don't like it I feel dirty.. Is reloading OBS & LIVE the fix? and if so is there some should do's first before reinstalling? profile saving etc..
it fixed it!!!
