having trouble using obs to broadcast from the xbox app

tulip hamlet
#

@heady yacht You're going to have to explain what you're talking about in more detail than that.

deep birchBOT
#

@neon anvil 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

My obs update keeps failing

#

I says close all programs even when all programs are closed

keen osprey
#

hey guys im on obs 23.0.1, and cant get my activity feed to load

#

should i revert to 23?

tulip hamlet
#

Do you see a StreamElements menu at the top?

keen osprey
#

yes

tulip hamlet
#

Click it. Do you see an Activity feed option?

keen osprey
#

yea, checked

tulip hamlet
#

Then it's hiding somewhere.

keen osprey
#

no sorry, its up

#

i see it

#

its spinning/thinking

#

There's a refresh button in the top left.

tulip hamlet

Have you clicked "Do it later" in the top right?

chrome bolt
#

That worked but why is it doing that? It should show completed

#

Thanks @tulip hamlet

spice bolt
#

obs live will not delete off my pc and nothing is helping

#

need help

ancient zodiac
spice bolt
#

did everything and it wont remove it self off my pc @ancient zodiac

ancient zodiac
#

Do it from your control panel then

spice bolt
#

did it still nothing

ancient zodiac
#

Uninstall obs and reinstall obs then. Idk.

spice bolt
#

ya that doesnt do nothing so i now i got the program stuck on my pc

ancient zodiac
#

C:\Program Files\obs-studio

Run obs-streamelements-uninstaller

#

What does it tell you.

spice bolt
#

it aborts before it finishes uninstall

ancient zodiac
#

Do you have obs running in your task manager

shadow lark
#

Obs live is showing lots of bugs since update yesterday.. after consulting you yesterday, i reinstalled everything. My stream crashed twice today and it wont shut down... I says program not responding.. everthing wass working fine on monday

neon fern
#

@shadow lark can you send us a report through the StreamElements menu? it will include log files

shadow lark
#

@neon fern done

warm pewter
#

OBS Studio hotfix 23.0.1 included fixes for crashing and freezing, you will want to apply this hotfix as well to rule that out as the problem @shadow lark

pine walrus
#

Hey, Fenrir again from the OBS team. Getting a lot of reports of the SE plugin breaking /removing our integration panels. We're recommending users just uninstall it for now, as we cannot replicate this condition without your plugin installed. Might be worth checking in to, thanks!

shy mountain
#

Yes, we found this issue yesterday and the devs are on it 😉

#

(taking credit, I found it before the first report came in here yesterday)

#

@pine walrus One work around to have the panels apear with OBS.Live is -> settings -> stream -> disconnect -> connect account.

pine walrus
#

yeah, but that's a temp fix.

shy mountain
#

Yep, we know.

pine walrus
#

they'd have to do that pretty much every launch. If you're on it, all good!

neon fern
#

Thanks for letting us know @pine walrus
As KeiZar said our devs are on it since yesterday, and this is their top priority right now.

pine walrus
#

Thanks :)

shadow lark
#

Any tips? Obs wont update to 23.0.1. It keeps waiting for obs to exit.. TIA

heady glen
#

Quick question bout obs.live
So on regular obs studio they have the dashboard looking stats that include views/subs/follows/watchtime/clips/viewers and i was using regularly studio for the past 2 days just to try it out before upgrading back into obs.live

Is there anyway to reenable those stats? I cant find it in the things to enable.

#

Easier way to explain what im talking about is these stats on the dashboard being displayable in obs studio but cant find out how to display it in obs.live

odd kraken
#

In OBS you can go to -> settings -> stream -> disconnect -> connect account. After that the panels are back.
You might have to do this after every restart or profile change of OBS. We are working on a fix.

heady glen
#

Alright thank you appreciate it

shadow lark
#

got obs fixed ( i thinks/hope)

timid stump
#

Hi all, my obs has started laggin whenever i enable my media share to start playing. Any tips on how to fix? Thanks!

scarlet cobalt
#

HELLO

#

I was the one who tweeted you about obs.live not working correctly

#

@hallow vector

#

I meant @neon fern

sinful flint
#

Have you clicked on StreamElements at the top of OBS.Live and then clicked on Report an Issue yet? That's the best way to let our OBS.Live devs see what could be causing your issues

scarlet cobalt
#

I have not, I went on Twitter and they said if their solution doesn't fix it to go on discord

sinful flint
#

No problem 😃 chuck the devs an issue report via the way I mentioned so they can analyse the issue

scarlet cobalt
#

Sent

sinful flint
#

Thanks 👍

scarlet cobalt
#

I'm going to try reinsalling

#

installing

sinful flint
#

Alright, make sure to uninstall OBS.Live before OBS if you reinstall both

scarlet cobalt
#

ohhh

#

Hmm

#

Okay

#

Okay

#

So I reinstalled, and it brings me back to the same white screen, then I try to login, nothing happens, log in again, nothing happens, log in AGAIN and it now says "Do you want to set up"

#

And now it wants me to install... again

#

so i reinstalled BOTh

#

and now it is just constantly "Reinstalling"

#

I don't understand.

#

And when I double click on the StreamElements obs icon on my desktop it just goes to OBS STudio

#

Okay, finally "Reinstalled" again and again, and it's back to just the white screen

#

StreamElements - Login doesn't do anything

#

Going to settings

#

stream

#

and then login goes to a white screen too

#

lmao

#

can't even right click on the screen

#

Just... white

sinful flint
#

You've sent the log in, now we just need to wait for the developer to say what's up

scarlet cobalt
#

Alright

slim lynx
#

Under the Media request widget, any idea what it is listed as under Windows 10 "App settings and device prefrerences" ?

gleaming prism
#

Specs i7-6700k rtx 2080ti 16gb. I stream on 1080p 60fps. Everytime i enable browser source for elements overlay i keep dropping major frames on Apex. When hide the browser overlay i loose 0 frames. i did a fresh scene with only one browser source from stream elements. I have two 1440p monitors. Any idea whats wrong=

#

If i just have my webcam stream works perfect

#

6000 bitrate not dropping network frames

deep birchBOT
#

@gleaming prism 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.

gleaming prism

#

limit Apex FPS with the launch option

#

!apex

deep birchBOT
#

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

warm pewter
#

another user reported that it still worked fine for them setting +fps_max 144

gleaming prism
#

So if i stream with the browser source visible its 30fprs major drops but then i just click hide scene at it goes back up to 60 and stays good. so does a browser source use that much?

#

ill try the fps limit thank you guys

warm pewter
#

you could try disabling hardware acceleration on the browser source as well, but since you are using OBS.Live, that setting really shouldnt matter

gleaming prism
#

Okay thanks 😃 a tad bit annoying when you just got everything looking neato

halcyon vale
#

Hey i got a question so when i stream with the overlay that i always use aperantly now i get lags in stream if i dont use it stream is perfectly fine anyone knows why is that and how i can fix it

pseudo magnet
#

Hey guys. Does anyone know how I can differentiate between the League Client and In game league windows for OBS scene swapping? OBS only seems to recognise League as one application

pseudo magnet
#

Thanks for that! Will look into it now

#

Sorry to spam people for help. But does anyone know why my Blizzard Application Window is capturing more than just the window. It also has a larger black foreground and the mouse cursor looks like when a program crashed in windows 2000

untold mesa
#

How do i connect my youtube to obs.live i only see a twitch option

tulip hamlet
#

OBS.Live is only available for Twitch at this time.

#

YouTube will be added in a future update.

#

No ETA.

untold mesa
#

Are there other ways to connect my youtube chat to obs

tulip hamlet
#

Not that I'm personally aware of.

slim lynx
#

Is there any way within Stream Elements to upload custom alert packages like from theme maker Nerd or Die?

tulip hamlet
#

Nerd or Die has packages that include StreamElements instructions. You should check the product page to see if a particular package supports it.

barren kindle
#

My Cam is working with my Main overlay but I can not get it to show up in my Just talking overlay. Any suggestions?

slim lynx
#

Thanks, will do that. So far only seen instructions for that "other" site.

warm pewter
#

@barren kindle Dont use different sources for the cam. If you do this, the one source will need to be completely shutdown before the other can become active. It is much easier to use the same source for the different scenes

barren kindle
#

I will "Try" to figure out how to do that.

warm pewter
#

You literally have one cam source, and when you add it to another scene, you use the existing source option. its very straight forward

barren kindle
#

Genius!!!!! Worked perfectly!!! Thank you!!!

#

It was as simple as copy and paste! Thank you!!

warm pewter
pseudo magnet
#

Is there anyway for me to have a now playing option (for songs) from youtube?

tulip hamlet
#

Current song widget reads your media request playlist.

pseudo magnet
#

Please excuse my ignorance, but should I make use of a different widget then to track the songs coming from a youtube playlist?

tulip hamlet
#

You can put your youtube playlist into the media request feature as a backup playlist.

pseudo magnet
#

Alright I will try work on that, I would just like to confirm then, that it cannot track my youtube organically?

tulip hamlet
#

No, you can't just track a YouTube playlist on its own, it must go through the media request system.

pseudo magnet
#

Okay. Thank you for the assistance!

lost granite
#

hello again guys

#

can you repeat me how to stream with Remote play

#

?

tulip hamlet

Get your game audio and video on your computer
Capture it with OBS
Stream with OBS on your computer

lost granite
#

how do i capture it?

#

i dont find any op

tulip hamlet
lost granite
#

ok

#

thks

outer willow
#

is there a way to get up a command that when said in chat it will play a song in the media share

tulip hamlet
#

...you mean the !songrequest default command?

outer willow
#

yeah but im trying to make it when someone does the command !troll it will play a song

tulip hamlet
#

Not possible.

outer willow
#

alright thank you

halcyon vale
#

@tulip hamlet sorry for tagging you but i really need to get this fixed till tomorrow. So if i stream with the overlay i used for all my recent streams my stream starts lagging like it looks like 15 fps or something but if i like make it invisible so i got no overlay it runs smooth for some reason and i cant seem to fix it

tulip hamlet
#

Are you using animated assets, hypecup, or kappagen?

halcyon vale
#

im using an animated apex overlay yea

tulip hamlet
#

Because it sounds like your hardware can't handle that and the game.

halcyon vale
#

i started streaming like 6 days ago now and used that since day 1 and never had any problems with that

#

it also ran smooth today the first 15 minutes and then randomly started

deep birchBOT
#

@halcyon vale 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.

halcyon vale
#

where should i put the logfile at ?

#

like the link

warm pewter
#

here

halcyon vale
warm pewter
#

Disable all windows gaming features, and since you are using x264 to encode, amd animated overlay could easily throw that off on a single pc setup. In that regard, it would probably be better to update to OBS Studio 23.0.1, and try the new nvenc encoder. It would give similar and possibly better quality output, while reducing system resources, and could be enough to work with an animated overlay

halcyon vale
#

I dont know how to do the first part like disable all windows gaming features but i just downloaded 23.0.1 but how do i use the nvec encoder ?

warm pewter
halcyon vale
#

thanks alot

#

and btw if i get a bitrate of 4000 while streaming i should put it to like 3000ish right ?

warm pewter
#

It depends on your internet upload speed, and what your output settings are

halcyon vale
#

upload speed is about ~40 mbits

warm pewter
halcyon vale
#

thank you alot i appreaciate that u took ur time to help me

#

Hi I have a question, do I have to use obs.live in order to have access to the features like chat bot, song request and things like that?

tulip hamlet
#

No.

limpid cosmos
#

so I can continue to use streamlabs obs?

#

or should i use regular obs

tulip hamlet
#

We don't recommend it, as we cannot troubleshoot issues with using our tools in SLOBS.

#

We'll always recommend using OBS Studio with the OBS.Live plugin.

limpid cosmos
#

ok, and would I be able to do those things such as the chat bot, song request, use different overlays and things like that if I use OBS Studio with the plugin?

tulip hamlet
#

Of course.

#

SLOBS is a stripped down fork of OBS Studio's source code with their own stuff tossed into it.

limpid cosmos
#

Ok

#

I see

#

Where do I go to get the obs.live plugin

tulip hamlet
limpid cosmos
#

Question, how do I start using a theme I created? like how do I bring it into OBS

deep birchBOT
#

@limpid cosmos 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

limpid cosmos
#

I see browser, not browser source, is that it

tulip hamlet
#

You're adding "browser" in the "sources" section, right?

limpid cosmos
#

yes

#

do I leave fps at 30?

tulip hamlet
#

Depends on your hardware and your stream.

limpid cosmos
#

another question, is there a way I can get my webcam to auto fit in the theme that I made when I add the web cam source to my scene?

tulip hamlet
#

No. You need to position it yourself.

limpid cosmos
#

oh ok

scarlet cobalt
#

Any word?

tulip hamlet
#

Bird.

#

Sarcasm aside, perhaps explain what you're waiting for word on?

scarlet cobalt
#

I have an issue with SE live

#

or obs live or whatever

#

Basically it's just a blank white screen

#

can't right click, can't swap to a different scene to make it go away, nothing

#

no panels either

#

If I go to Stream Elements menu

#

and down to "Login"

#

it just opens a new window

#

with a blank white page

#

So basically, I have to go to "Obs Studio" in the menu to see anything

#

Nothing seem to work

#

and up going to settings and connecting account or whatever

#

that just... does nothing

#

literlaly, click it, nothing happens

#

It USED to work, for a few weeks

tulip hamlet
#

I read up.

#

You sent the report.

#

It's just now almost 5 AM.

#

The devs are asleep.

#

And it's the weekend.

scarlet cobalt
#

5am? Oh, No one is in LA?

tulip hamlet
#

You may have to wait a few days.

scarlet cobalt
#

or the US?

#

I didn't know that. My apologies

tulip hamlet
#

No.

#

We're in Israel.

scarlet cobalt
#

Oh

#

Well that changes everything

#

Go to bed man

tulip hamlet
#

I'm the overnight guy.

I recently installed OBSlive and OBS started freezing on me when I switch scenes and just randomly during streams for a second. I uninstalled it after one stream with it and the uninstall failed. I deleted all the files I could and reinstalled OBS and now all my streamelement overlays and alert boxes won't show up. Also my headphones stopped working. An OBS addon should not cause so many problems.

tulip hamlet
#

We're aware of issues with uninstalling and have been looking into it.

harsh lily
#

How can I get my streamelements overlays working? Anytime I click on one it just says no properties available and there's no other options to do anything.

tulip hamlet
harsh lily
#

It didn't do anything. I reinstalled OBS after trying to uninstall OBSlive so it should already have those files anyway

tulip hamlet
#

Unfortunately I'm not sure at this point and the devs are asleep and unable to provide input.

#

You may have to wait a while for an update.

harsh lily
#

Can they get back with me tomorrow? I can't really do anything until I get this fixed.

tulip hamlet
#

I honestly don't know their weekend schedule.

normal reef
#

I like everything but the editor

harsh herald
#

Does anyone know with the improvements to NVENC that is actually looks decent on stream?

#

Been using x264 for a bit and it works fine, would love to have the CPU space if possible though

shy mountain
#

@harsh herald in detail? No. You can ask the guys at obs discord they will be able to explain.

deep birchBOT
devout latch
#

can anyone confirm if there was a recent (in last 2 days) update to OBS.live that fixes the twitch docks in v23 not showing everytime you open OBS (not having to reconnect to twitch account)

shy mountain
#

Its a known issue we are working on.

devout latch
#

as i dont see any changelogs of even a version number/release date on the OBS.live download page

#

ok cool

#

how would i know if a newer version is out?

#

will it be in announccements?

shy mountain
#

When OBS.Live promps you to most likely update or its going to be a hotfix without requiring a new update.

devout latch
#

ok cool, just what i needed to know thanks!

#

any ETA or info on Facebook, youtube integration?

#

are they in the works?

shy mountain
#

Facebook integration in general is planned, but for OBS.live on later time most likely.

#

Youtube is also planned for OBS.Live.

devout latch
#

ty

shy mountain
#

Again no ETAs on when.

grim finch
#

Is there an issue with the custom bot not wanting to connect every time we startup obs? Since the update this week I have to go and manually go and setup the bot and then hopefully it connects. Tonight on my stream inside that and the bot was there for a sec and then gone. So people couldn't see there points or the messages from bot wouldn't show

shy mountain
#

Yes - its a known issue for the custom bot not being persistent after restarting OBS.

grim finch
#

Ok

#

So it will be hit or miss

shy mountain
#

Usually it should work if you change it back to SE name and then to the custom name.

#

but I would suggest to logout the custom name from OBS.Live and then log it back in.

#

It might be affected by our update to the login system.

grim finch
#

Also question when a viewer types !points it shows on the channel and not in a whisper. I didn't see in the settings how to change that

#

@shy mountain also thank you for your help

shy mountain
#

Sorry, let me check that for you. Afaik, default commands can't be adjusted to whisper only.

grim finch
#

i had seen that

shy mountain
#

Yeah, no. You will have to make a custom command using these variables:

#

and then make it reply in a whisper.

#

${pointsname} and this one if you have a custom name of the points.

grim finch
#

ok i can then turn off the default command then

shy mountain
#

yes

grim finch
#

ok

mental dust
#

I dont know if this is the right spot to ask but ever since either the OBS update (probably this) or the OBS Live update, the encoder for NVENC "Default" is gone and now I'm struggling to even stream Apex Legends and I have no idea how to fix this. I still have the old settings on Streamlabs OBS. Is there anything I can set similar to default?

deep birchBOT
mental dust
#

As I thought, thanks

shy mountain
#

@vestal moss Is the activity feed not loading even after you restart OBS.Live?

vestal moss
#

Yep! Restarted it atleast 3 times now along with ground control

shy mountain
#

Ok I see that you have events in your activity feed.

#

Mind if we do a teamviewer session so taht I can take a look at OBS.Live with a debugger option?

vestal moss
#

sure thing, give me a minute to re-install teamviewer

What exactly is not working?

Does anyone know why my apex stream shows massive FPS stutters during the game but not during lobby etc?

@pseudo magnet 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.

Was this due to an update? It was perfectly fine last night

shy mountain
#

I would suggest to update you graphics drivers

#

If that doesn't help, then I don't think we will be able tohelp much and you would best ask in the OBS discord.

slim lynx
#

I am hoping someone can answer a question for me. I am trying to figure out what the "Media Request" widget would be called under Windows 10 "App volume and device preferences"?

I want my viewers to be able to hear music, but I do not want to hear it and I need to know what source the widget is listed under as to route it through my virtual audio cables.

shy mountain
#

Desktop audio most likely.

#

it defaults to the desktop audio

#

But most likely plays directly from the OBS audio channel.

#

so if OBS is hooked to the desktop audio - thats where.

slim lynx
#

Wouldn't Desktop audio also be the catch all default for ALL other audio , including games, coming through the system?

#

If that is the case, it sounds like there is no way for me to separate it.

shy mountain
#

You can make games go to other audio channels, but afaik the MR widget will use what OBS is using to play audio for alerts as well.

slim lynx
#

Is there a suggestions thread somewhere? I decided to try SE from SLOBS yesterday and it looks like I will be going back to SLOBS I guess. Too much is still missing from SE.

shy mountain
#

What do you mean too much is missing from us?

#

We just add to OBS Studio an activity feed, the MR widget and a chat with BTTV emotes.

slim lynx
#

I like the ideas that SE brings to the table, which is why I wanted to give it a shot, and I LOVE the modularity that SE has on top of OBS, but SLOBS integrates VERY well with their website ( I buy my themes from Nerd or Die which has 1 click StreamLabs alert and notification setups) which make alert and notification setups supremely easy.

Both clients have different widgets, which is a taste thing, but not having the media request in a separate channel is a deal breaker for me.

#

In SLOBS I pay $5 a month for the MonsterCat app, and it has its own channel which I have routed through Virtual Audio Cables. My viewers can hear the music, but I cannot as I do not like music when I stream.

#

I liked the idea of allowing viewers to request their own music with media request, but if I am subjected to it all day long, I would rather not use it.

shy mountain
#

I want to toss you a deal.

#

Toss this info into our Ideas board and I will my hardest to push it to our Devs. Ok?

deep birchBOT
slim lynx
#

Thanks, i will be happy to do so.

shy mountain
#

I used to use Voicemeeter my self recently, before I reinstalled my PC and that was before we fully implemented the MR widget, so I was not aware this might be the case.

#

Me personally I would really love to see this my self as well as.

slim lynx
#

Am I allowed to post a link to reddit?

shy mountain
#

here?

slim lynx
#

Yeah

shy mountain
#

About what?

#

This issue/request?

slim lynx
#

The guide I found that helped me separate the audio into different channels allowing you to choose what your viewers can/cannot hear.

shy mountain
#

Toss it as a PS in the ideas topic.

slim lynx
#

Since you used VAC, I thought you might appreciate it

shy mountain
#

Aah you mean for me?

#

Nah I never had issues separating MR before, as I used it from the website

slim lynx
#

Thanks, will do. And I will also add it to my suggestions post so the devs can see what I am speaking of.

shy mountain
#

and I could play music for my self but not stream, due to heavy copyrighted songs xd

#

or vise versa if needed - but separating browser audio is different I guess from our MR widget in the OBS.Live thonking

slim lynx
#

Yeah, I do not do copyrighted music, but would like to allow my viewers to pick what songs they would like to hear. I just do not want to hear anything but the game I am playing.

#

Thanks for the help. I will be keeping a close eye on SE and will probably give it another go once I see a few more features added.

shy mountain
#

its planned for OBS studio to provide separate audio tracks for browser source (yes the MR widget is essentially a browser source)

#

But there is no ETA from the OBS guys on this.

slim lynx
#

Ah cool. So the MC widget in SLOBS must only be separate because it is a separate widget. Hopefully they will get this looked into then. Should I still throw up the post in the ideas forum?

shy mountain
#

Note that SLOBS is an entire fork of OBS Studio

#

meaning they develope their own stuff so they might have pushed some things earlier

slim lynx
#

Yeah, understood.

shy mountain
#

afaik, they don't at the moment have the new NVENC encoder as well.

#

so they might have yoinked this feature and developed it for SLOBS rooShrug

steel mural
#

Nope they don't LUL

slim lynx
#

No, like most forks, they are behind on the original branch.

steel mural
#

Not even multi track audio and that exists in OBS Studio for years.

slim lynx
#

One of the many reasons I was hoping to switch to SE. 😃

shy mountain
#

We just add to OBS Studio, thats it rooShrug

slim lynx
#

I can tell you folks one way you could get more people to switch.

#

Add an import from SLOBS to OBS.live and an import from StreamLabs chatbot to StreamElements chatbot.

shy mountain
slim lynx
#

I spent 4 hours of my stream yesaterday just rebuilding 5 of my scenes.

shy mountain
#

to be fair, importing the overlay file from SLOBS is not possible - the export of the overlay comes as an overlay pure file.

slim lynx
#

Yeah, i did use that, but it did not seem to bring anything at all over.

shy mountain
#

which we don't understand what it is and its not compatible with OBS Studio it self.

slim lynx
#

Understood.

shy mountain
#

The import tool we have, grabs your alert box from SL dashboard, not SLOBS

#

as for the chat bot import, ankhbot is the tool you are looking for.

slim lynx
#

Ah, I will go search for that now.

shy mountain
#

You might have an issue with the points, as the points that export, come under a format of name,rank,points,hours

#

we have no clue what rank is, so if you want to, you can give me the points file to convert it for us 😃

slim lynx
#

Any idea where the Currency.csv and Data.xlsx are located by default?

shy mountain
#

Somewhere? thonking

#

this is usually what i give, but afaik, it sometimes isn't accurate

slim lynx
#

Thanks

I am still suffering from stream stuttering FPS drops - I have uninstalled and reinstaleld my drivers, added console commands for the game and changed video quality. Nothing seems to help - when I am out of Apex it doesnt stutter - am I missing something?

As soon as StreamElements Auto Updated CSGO has been running fine, but my FPS in OBS are significantly dropping.

@haughty scarab 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.

im having an issue where everytime i start up obs it uses stream elements and not my custom bot, than i connect it manually everytime and it reconfigures everything

hello, i cant find the media request plugin in obs? do i miss something ?

warm pewter
#

There is no media request plugin. We only have our plugin, OBS.Live, that includes media request as part of it

gritty trench
#

sry, that was what i meant

#

i cant find it in obs.live

#

everything else still aviable like chat and twitch stats

ancient zodiac
#

Streamelements menu at the top, there should be a media request button there

gritty trench
#

its not aviable at the dropdown list

#

i did a update yesterday but didnt checked for mr

Logout, and log back in

gritty trench

Run as admin @steady torrent .

If this is a laptop, make sure the game and obs are running on the same gpu

#

@gentle flint Reinstall/repair streamdeck software

you need to close OBS, then repair the SD software

As I don't earn a streamDeck myself, I can't test it. sorry.

#

Obs.live WILL NOT uninstall. I've uninstalled obs and everything. This is very annoying

small nebula
#

I will try that @odd kraken Thank you

#

Those files don't exist

#

Even in %appdata%

odd kraken
#

you have installed obs studio somewhere else?

small nebula
#

I have slobs?

#

But for widgets

#

I'm uninstalling it to test if that's the problem

odd kraken
#

the directory you installed OBS.Live into, there should be the files.

small nebula
#

What's the default directory

odd kraken
#

Most likely in your directory where you installed SLOBS.

small nebula
#

Still nothing

#

Why does it try to download obs studio when you uninstall obs.live

odd kraken
#

I think, because this is the way we remove OBS.Live. We install the latest version of OBS Studio without our plugin.

small nebula
#

Well I think that's the problem but idk that deep into it

odd kraken
#

We are aware of that issue and are working on a fix. In the meantime you can remove OBS.Live by removing the files of the installation.

small nebula
#

I think ya'll should stop adding new stuff and fix stuff before you become fortnite. Adding too much stuff and having too many bugs. I like SE, it's just with the new obs update it has chat in it. I will continue using it but please fix instead of add

plain sonnet

please let us know the bugs you are experiencing

can someone help me i can't get audio out of my ps4 into obs

as OSB Live does not change anything of the audio routing, think it would be best to ask at OBS.

thank you

#

Is there an issue atm where OBS LIVE disables Twitch stats in the Dock section in the View tab in OBS? Running both latest version of OBS and OBS Live. Thanks

odd kraken
#

In OBS you can go to -> settings -> stream -> disconnect -> connect account. After that the panels are back.
You might have to do this after every restart or profile change of OBS. We are working on a fix.

quaint swallow
#

@odd kraken Myea they indeed come back after a relogin but it's annoying to do that after each program restart, especially with 2f authentification, hope that fix comes out soon. Thanks for the quik reply

obslive stil says i am running version 21.1.2 do i need to go to obs directly and download version 23 from there? i updated live and it still doesnt show new NVENC

odd kraken

yes. you have to download OBS manually. In the version 21.1. was a problem with the auto-updater.

Can anyone actually run obslive and stream at the same time? It kills my frames just having it installed and using OBS

streamelements overlay doesnt load on my obs anymore anyone know why?

rotund echo
#

Is OBS.Live down?

shy mountain
#

What do you mean down?

rotund echo
#

I open up OBS.Live and it opens up OBS Studio and I have no chat or anything.

shy mountain
#

OBS.Live is a plugin for OBS Studio that adds 3 additional widget windows.

#

Do you have "Streamelements" on the top menu?

rotund echo
#

that is missing

shy mountain
#

If that option is missing, then you don't have OBS.Live installed.

#

If you've just updated OBS Studio to 23.0.1

rotund echo
#

It wont let install obs live then it claims to have a virus that webroot shuts down every time!

shy mountain
#

First time hearing about webroot WeirdCoffee

#

There haven't been any other reports about a virus or anything malicious being detected, besides 1 user who in the end his AV was giving a false result.

rotund echo
#

All I know is webroot says this update has a Trojan virus and It auto deletes every time!

shy mountain
#

Webroot here says the installer is fine.

#

You can try and whitelist or update your AV or something.

rotund echo
#

what is AV

shy mountain
#

anti-virus = AV

Hello :)

I'm having some trouble with the media request widget - i set it up before the update and it worked perfectly - after the update it just keeps telling me this.

I've gone and made another overlay, but it's still not working.

How to fix plox?

shy mountain
#

Have you added the overlays with the media widget to oBS?

#

Its best if you have 1 media widget in 1 overlay and actually open.

#

If yes, I would suggest to click on "Streamelements" on top -> logout -> login

#

and make sure you don't have MR open in any other location (website or ground control

cunning aurora
#

I have added the widget to obs yes, as i said, it worked perfectly before the update. I'll try logout/login.
OBS is the only app using MR

#

Skipped this and it gives me the same problem - if you think of any other fixes, pls leme know

shy mountain
#

Sorry stepped out to the store real quick.

#

Whats your twitch name?

cunning aurora
#

Missmirid

shy mountain
#

Lets see if I can reproduce this before diving into your overlays.

cunning aurora
#

I've gone and removed the one that was on there, and made a new one

shy mountain
#

thonking works for me

#

What version of OBS and OBS.Live do you have? @cunning aurora

#

(top left for OBS studio and lower right for our plugin version numbers)

cunning aurora
#

obs 23.0.1 andSE 19.2.26.339

shy mountain
#

Last thing I can suggest before we try and do a TeamViewer session with a debugger tool

#

Start OBS as admin?

cunning aurora

Want to do a team viewer session?

cunning aurora

sure thing

arctic gyro
#

Would anyone know how to lower the volume of media request altogether? I have the slider bar in OBS.Live almost all the way down to make it "normal"

shy mountain
#

You can also control the volume of the youtube videos, by going to a normal youtube video and lowering the volume there.

#

then refreshing the widget in oBS.Live

#

it should pick up your lowered volume from your browser.

arctic gyro
#

@shy mountain Let me try real quick. Ill let you know

#

@shy mountain I went on youtube, clicked a video, messed with the volume, set it lower, then refreshed

#

Did i do something wrong? Nothing changed

shy mountain
#

did you refresh the widget in obs.live?

arctic gyro
#

yes

shy mountain
#

How? With the swirly o nthe top left of it?

arctic gyro
#

Yup clicked the swirly arrow, it refreshed, still blaring loud lol

shy mountain
#

Lower your speakers/headphones maybe? thinkies

arctic gyro
#

I do have my volume on Windows at 100% but thats just so I can use game audio settings, media request, and Mic/Aux

shy mountain
#

and I think 20% on my speakers and barely hear it

#

windows sound is also 100% for me

arctic gyro
#

Almost as a mixer

shy mountain
#

I'm not sure I understand what you are trying to setup or if thats your current audio setup thonking

arctic gyro
#

I'm here and idk how to describe how loud it is but it would become a little obnoxious after 20-30 mins. and I normally like loud music

#

@shy mountain

shy mountain
#

To be honest, I have no idea what the problem is.

#

and have my headphones/speakers hover around 20-50%

#

but even at this level with max youtube volume setting I barely hear the song

#

at 40% speaker volume

arctic gyro
#

Okay well I had my headphones at almost 100 (via controller on the cord) so yeah that was probably it but I can still be the that high and put spotify to like half and its good

#

idk

#

All is good though. Thank you @shy mountain

shy mountain
#

👍

gentle flint
#

good morning, there is a way to copy custom variation from one overlay to another?

shy mountain
#

In the overlay editor -> click the widget -> lower left corner next to layers -> 2 papers with red dot -> copy widget to other overlays.

gentle flint
#

@shy mountain

#

i think im gonna mess up since im using the apex overlay

shy mountain
gentle flint
#

i will do it manualy but thanks a lot

#

in my own personal overlay i will do it for sure

shy mountain
#

you can remove the alert widgets from the other overlays

gentle flint
#

thanks a lot

shy mountain
#

and just copy over the edited one

#

its simple

#

even if you mess up, you can always recreate the theme rooShrug

gentle flint
#

yeah i will look more thanks in advance

#

i use it all in portuguese so i already spend a day changing stuff

#

probably need few minutes to finish what i want manually

#

thanks

Is custom bot name still having issues on OBS.Live?

Remembering the custom bot name? yes

Ya ya okay will use Ground Control for now then

But it is working for most parts while you have obs on and have set it up.

QUESTION: With OBS Live media request feature/playing songs through this tool, is it possible to designate an audio output source for this layer? For example, separating this sound from the default system sound? I have Virtual Audio Cable, and I'd like alerts to come in on Cable A, and music to come in on Cable B (so it doesn't end up in the recorded file.

Why does OBSLive eat so much FPS

deep birchBOT

@noble atlas 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.

the activity dock still gets stuck in the settings sometimes and it can't be fixed via the reload icon at the top left corner of the doc btw ;w;

(using obs 23.0.1 + latest obs.live)

I am setting up the custom hud and can not see a widget for viewer count, there has to be... this feature is like a 100% must, can somebody point me in the right direction? am i missing it?

odd kraken
#

In OBS you can go to -> settings -> stream -> disconnect -> connect account. After that the panels are back.
You might have to do this after every restart or profile change of OBS. We are working on a fix.

sand spindle
#

You need to see the viewer count all the time? That sounds like the opposite of what a streamer should do

odd kraken
#

You can disable the viewer count in the settings in the activity feed in the burger menu.

proper hatch
#

why would that seem like the opposite of what a streamer would do?

#

you want to show the viewer count to set goals for your stream...

#

for example, "when we reach XXX view count we will do XXX giveaway"

#

streamlabs has it too 😛 so i would imagine streamelements should have it

odd kraken
#

I think there is no way to separate the audio track of MR in OBS.Live. But I think there is an idea somewhere in the ideas board: https://strms.net/ideas

#

@eager island Can you please use the "report an issue"-function in OBS.Live as our devs will get some info, why your settings in the AF might get stuck.

noble atlas
odd kraken
#

what game are you trying to stream?

noble atlas
#

Apex Destiny Sea of Thieves

#

But like no obs I get 90+ frames. OBS I get around 90 depending on the game, Apex I get around 70. OBSlive 30 but it definitely feels slower and more choppy than 30

harsh dawn
#

hi guys

plain sonnet
harsh dawn
#

uhh

noble atlas
#

It's set to 30 in normal obs too I still get more frames. Going 60fps is a bigger tax on the hardware and drops more frames. So while my stream gets 30 frames I would like to have a smooth experience. Playing any game, so far, has not been a smooth experience with obslive

#

There's a difference between stream fps and my games dropping fps

plain sonnet
#

this is a recording log, do you have a recent stream log?

noble atlas
#

I do not, recording uses the stream encoder. I won't stream with OBSLive because this is unplayable

plain sonnet
#

and we cant help you identify whats wrong with your streams if we dont have a stream log. there is no way at all you can do a test stream?

noble atlas
#

lmao is this a joke. I've gone through streamlabs OBS and standard OBS. Everyone is able to identify a problem with a recording log when using stream encoder because they're the same thing at that point, one is just pushing to the internet the other is pushing to the hard drive. This isn't I have internet problems. It's OBSLive is fucking with hardware resources. A livestream would not change any of that in terms of the log it would just let you know if my internet was working. Which at this point means nothing because I'm having issues with basic recording

proper hatch
#

@odd kraken making games 😛 not playing thanks for the link

#

oh you meant the other guy 😛 lmao sorry

#

anyway, thanks

noble atlas
plain sonnet
#

the only error for skipped frames is "encoding lag". the reason we ask for streaming logs is, typically, its a longer session than a 5 minute recording so we get more info.

noble atlas
#

Just having obslive open causes drops in my fps

vapid quiver
#

is there a way to add a custom transition?

deep birchBOT
plain sonnet
#

do you have any of the new features enabled from the obs update (PVT/look-ahead)?

this is my stats from a 5 minute recording and the only time it dropped frames was on transitions

noble atlas
#

That was a bit better but it's still too low to even think about streaming

cloud oak
#

Hey guys, just a heads up.. I reported a while back that middle clicking a link in chat loaded the link in the chat widget (and you had to sign out to get back to chat). That has been fixed.. but it still does the same bug if you control click a link in chat

Hi, is there a way to intergrate changes made in "System Information" window to that of the OBS.Live plugin in the "Activity Feed - Stream settings" that is game and title. Where changed in one place , changes should also reflect elsewhere.

And right click copy paste options would be good too.

@hardy tulip You can change the title in the Stream Information and hit the reload icon on top of the Activity feed window, to reload the AF. The changed title should be displayed in the AF, too.

can i post a gift real quick so you guys can see what i mean?

yes you can.

i change to my main screen and the game is zoomed, so i have to reset the source

this didnt happen to me before, just with the recent update

i already joines obs discord and no one is answering me

#

thats why i posted in here

odd kraken

what do you do to reset the scene when it happens?

brisk edge
#

i just hide it and put it again

odd kraken
#

Have you set any filters on the source?
What resolution did you add the browser source?

brisk edge
#

no filter, 720

deep birchBOT
#

@brisk edge 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

brisk edge
#

the thing is that my overlay on the website is 720

#

if i do 1080 my overlay would get small

#

i think i just fixed it

odd kraken
#

What did you do?

brisk edge
#

yeah got it, i just force the scale to 1080 on the game capture

#

thanks anyways 😃

bitter ether
#

wait a second,, does OBSLIVE remove the OBS studio 23.0 chat window?

#

Do i HAVE to use the OBSLIVE version? The other one supports FFZ and BTTV

#

oh wait

#

OBS live chat window has just been replaced with the OBS studio one right ?

#

Dont mind me then

odd kraken
#

I think it is the other way around. The OBS.Live window has the BTTV and FFZ implementation.

bitter ether
#

hmmm

#

Question: Can i make links in the chat NOT open in the streamelements browser popout window? And just open in my own browser as it used to?

odd kraken
#

I don't think this is possible. The OBS window is just like a chromium window.

bitter ether
#

that sucks, it didn't use to do that in the beginning

frozen pebble
#

I drop frames in obs while streaming Apex Legends but i did turn of the game mode and put triple buffed on vsync what else can be wrong ??

deep birchBOT
#

@frozen pebble 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

#

im using obs live and my chat on obs isnt working with twitch

odd kraken
#

what do you mean exactly with "not working"?

knotty cairn
#

i mean its not syncing up with twitch so i cant see chat unless im on twitch

plain sonnet
#

which chat are you using? is it the obs twitch chat or the obs.live twitch chat?

knotty cairn
#

obs.live twitch chat

plain sonnet
#

can you try login out and back in. also, is it just a spinning wheel (like its not loading), or just not displaying anything?

knotty cairn

i tried those options... it displays a chat but no chat typing comes it

have you renamed you twitch name? are you logged in obs with the same twitch account on your discord profile?

echo tapir
#

quick question, any one else who have to add in their custom bot every time that have restarted their PC. Every time my pc have been powered off i have to reconnect my bot and it is starting to annoy me quite a bit

odd kraken
#

This is a known issue and we are working on a fix for the custom bot name in OBS.Live. You can use the rename feature of our tool GroundControl instead.

echo tapir
#

i know, was using ground control before, but when i run both then I have issues where the media control switch randomly between OBS.live and GC

distant sedge
#

i need help

echo tapir
#

and since i do a lot of virtual audio routing that get a bit annoying, also they were fighting each other, so when i pressed next track, i would skip two and some times more, and this only happend when both obs.live and GC was running

distant sedge
#

So i recently installed the nee extension to obs and now my stream screen just shows up green any fixes ?

#

@white oyster same problem here

odd kraken
#

Update to the latest Version of OBS Studio (23.0.1).

distant sedge
#

I did

#

And i instaled the extensions after

#

And that happened

odd kraken
#

@echo tapir Having OBS.Live MR and Ground control open will fight these each other. You can try to close the MR tab in OBS.Live, to see if it helps.

echo tapir
#

I actually tried that @odd kraken and they still gave me issues, so that was the reason for a full switch to OBS.live

odd kraken
#

We are aware of the custom bot name not working correctly in OBS.Live and we are working on a fix.

#

@distant sedge Are you sure it happened after you installed our plugin? Because thi issue sould be fixed by OBS when using the OBS Studio version 23.0.1.

OBS 23.0.0

#

You need to install the update to 23.0.1 AliceW

knotty cairn
#

@plain sonnet yes i did change my twitch name

green brook
warm pewter
#

that log shows you are on 22.0,2, so you have not done all the updates, as OBS is on 23.0.1

#

ands its a core OBS file that is faulting, so we wont really be able to help much

#

wait, the faulting file is 22.0.2, but you are on 23.0.1 thinkingOHNO

green brook
#

I have my obs open now and it says 23.0.1 so its update

#

up to date sorry

warm pewter
#

yeah, a line threw me off in the log, but it looks like a core .dll from the x264 encoder is crashing

#

you will want to ask in the OBS discord about it in this regard

green brook
#

It happens often to at least one time a day its bad

warm pewter
#

!obshelp

deep birchBOT
green brook
#

I am in it what should i post the same crash file?

warm pewter
#

⤴ these guys should be able to give better insight on the log, as its a core .dll from OBS Studio, nothing from our plugin

#

yeah, that crash file should give them all they need

green brook
#

ok thank you

Is there anyway for me to import my own overlay into stream elements? and is there anyway to put me chat on my stream with stream elements without using one of there overlays?

warm pewter
shell basin
#

Is there any reason when i use obs stream elements and start stream on twitch its all green but in obs its fine. but when i use regular obs without stream elements the actual picture comes through

lethal light
#

Any particular reason that OBS.live hides my stream information window?

#

after a restart?

#

Having huge output issues, very choppy to viewers since update any ideas in the right direction?

@wide idol 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 trying to get the payment link but every time I try to open the tab on stream elements it wont work

nvm I got it

Just curious, is there any way to add categories to the streamelements store? Would be nice to be able to pile all of the sound clips into one category so that everything else does not get lost in the jumble.

#

Hi! So I keep having this issue where OBS.live removes the new OBS v23 native docks for Twitch Stats and Stream Information. Is there any workaround or do I just need to move back to Ground Control again for my activity feed and custom bot name support?

jovial sedge
#

Hello, is obs live a new copy or does it utilize the previous one ( obs studio) you might be using?

thin bough
#

Hi for some reason since the new update for both obs and obslive ive been getting this error every time i shut down my pc ive already talked to obs and they say its on your side here i screen shot what i get

thin bough
#

is there no staff on

#

ok just had another update for obs live think that sorted it

#

ok nope still doing it

odd kraken
#

@lethal light In OBS you can go to -> settings -> stream -> disconnect -> connect account. After that the panels are back.
You might have to do this after every restart or profile change of OBS. We are working on a fix.

#

@gentle flax I think there are no categoryies. But you can check if the idea was already postet or post a new ide here: https://strms.net/ideas

#

@thin bough Can you please submit your error via StreamElements > Report an issue , so our devs can look into it? Thank you.

thin bough
#

on streamelements site ?

odd kraken

In OBS, when selecting StreamElements at the top.

@odd kraken thanks for the reply.. glad to know you are working on a fix.

@odd kraken I'll probably just stick with Ground Control until that's fixed, I have to go through 2FA and resetting the bot every time for that. thanks though!

hello

@SnowyyMaineYT#7769 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.

echo tapir
#

where do we see release notes for OBS Live ? just got an update and wanted to know what was fixed / changed

cloud oak
#

Is obs live chat support to have support for BTTV emotes? because they don't work for me

#

FFZ works fine, but BTTV just doesn't show

odd kraken
#

Do you use the chat via StreamElements > Chat?

cloud oak
#

yes

#

in the settings cog, BTTV stuff is listed, but emotes just appear as text

#

animated, or regular

echo tapir
#

have you enabled all the different types in BTTV settings @cloud oak

cloud oak
#

I don't see any options to enable

echo tapir
cloud oak
#

this is where on obslive?

echo tapir
#

no just a random pc as my encoder machine isn't on, but i would guess that you should have a bttv settings in obs.live as well

cloud oak
#

hm.. I posted the only things that show up under the chat settings, it's mainly keywords/font size, nothing with bttv settings

echo tapir
#

I could turn on my encoder machine and see if I have it. 2 min

cloud oak
#

it'd be great if there was some option menu in obs live that i'm missing, but I sure as hell can't find it maelst2Thinking

echo tapir
#

wonder if the obs CLR browser plugin is using plugins from other browsers or it is running its own BTTV plugin

cloud oak
#

ok, this is very weird

#

clicking this emote icon at the bottom, it appears correct (doesn't show in the other emote icon in the "send message" box

#

once I open that emoji box once, BTTV emotes work again.. but this behaviour resets to not working once I restart OBS.. something is definitely not working as intended here.

#

@odd kraken, this might be of interest to you or another member of staff? seems like a weird and replicable bug

echo tapir
#

and you spell it exactly how BTTV does, capital letters and all

cloud oak
#

yes

#

the top one is exactly as spelt on BTTV

echo tapir
#

I'll see if i can replicate

cloud oak
#

shown on my stream chat, both instances of the emote show on my overlay

#

it works every time on my end.. if I restart OBS, BTTV emotes don't show, but if I click that emote icon at the bottom of the chat widget, they then show until OBS is rebooted

echo tapir
#

the first message i send is text after that it turns into icon

warm pewter
#

This can also happen with the OBS 23 chat, OBS.Live chat is pretty much the same as that, not sure if there is much we can do at that point

cloud oak
#

i'm also getting the same behaviour now.. the BTTV emotes weren't working at all until I clicked that emote icon at the bottom

warm pewter
#

If its the same as the OBS 23 chat, it uses custom javascript to inject bttv into the chat, might be related to how that works

cloud oak
#

but now, just sending a message in the OBS live chat seems to switch it over to working

echo tapir
#

i don't even have the emote at the bottom, only the twitch original one inside the text box

cloud oak
#

@warm pewter cool, it's not a huge deal now that it's working after one message, glad you guys are aware of it though

#

the name colour also changes on the second message, which indicates something changed in the widget

warm pewter
#

wut Like I said, seems out of our control, as this happens without our plugin

cloud oak
#

sure, I just meant i'm glad you guys are aware of it and it's not some problem that just i'm suffering

#

I know it's out of your control 👍

echo tapir
#

@warm pewter i don't have this in OBS.live is there some setting i need to enable?

warm pewter
#

that is from the OBS 23 chat, not OBS.Live

echo tapir
#

ah okay,

cloud oak
#

yeah, I have signed in with my twitch account once and got the chat client to pop up, so maybe that is why it appeared there

#

i'm now just using the obs live chat client though

echo tapir
#

well i still use old RTMP key, haven't connected my account as i do test streams to another and it's a pain OBS don't support multiple accounts, so i'm sticking to the stream key

cloud oak
#

because you can't be signed into your twitch account and stream to restream.. which makes no sense, but sure 🤷

#

anyway, thanks for the help guys 👍

warm pewter
steel mural
#

@echo tapir OBS does support multiple accounts. You can set them up in the profiles menu

warm pewter
cloud oak
#

sadly their implementation of twitch doesn't work for my specific use case.. as I can't sign into my twitch account and then also stream to restream (it deactivates the account when you change stream host)

echo tapir
#

ah okay, makes sense, alway wondered how to use that part of OBS 😄 thx, learned some thing new, always just used the Scenes "profile"

steel mural
echo tapir
#

Sweet @steel mural thank you, always great to obtain new knowledge

steel mural
echo tapir
#

well i don't think that auth your account for twitch and stream to RTMP at the same time will get implemented in OBS @cloud oak as per Terms of Service at Twitch you are not allowed to stream on multiple sites as affiliate or partner as the content has to be exclusive to them for the first 24 hours 😃 I see the point why it would be nice, but i don't think, if ever, it will have any priority to implement that to OBS

cloud oak
#

@echo tapir I use restream to stream a private VOD backup to youtube (there is no way to watch this live, it just goes to my youtube account) simultaneously as I stream to twitch which is fine by their terms of service

#

I then schedule that vod backup to go live on my youtube 24 hours after the twitch stream ends

edgy cairn
#

were do i go to look at the latest updates for obs.live

echo tapir
#

I've asked that about an hour ago, no answer, and I can't find it anywhere. Hope you get an answer as i would really like to know what have been fixed/changed in the new update @edgy cairn

you are also using the x264 encoder on 2500 bitrate at 1920x1080

#

change the encoder to NVENC and do a internet speed test

warm pewter
plain sonnet
#

if 2500 is the best speed you can do, you will need to lower your output resolution

@odd kraken thanks that worked

ok will do guys, thanks

Hey is there any setting to enable bttv gif emotes in obslive? I might just be kinda blind and unable to find it but it would be nice to know ^^

primal veldt
#

just updated obs live earlier today, but now if i hit go live and then stop the recording and then re hit the recording button, my obs crashed and closes itself,help

warm pewter
#

if it actually crashed, need to see a crash log %appdata%\obs-studio\crashes

#

@primal veldt ⤴

primal veldt
#

where do i find it and how can i share it

warm pewter
#

I gave you the path to the logs already. Use that in Windows File Explorer, then drag and drop the log in here

primal veldt
#

it's emty, but i have a log file that says it stopped capture

warm pewter
#

You can share that, but if its crashing, and there is no crash log, not much we can do as we wont know whats causing the crash

primal veldt
warm pewter
#

looks completely unrelated to OBS.Live, you will need to ask in the OBS discord 18:54:16.198: error: Failed locking nvenc input buffer: invalid version (15) 18:54:16.198: [NVENC encoder: 'streaming_h264'] nvenc_encode: Error encoding: Invalid argument 18:54:16.229: [jim-nvenc] init_encoder: nvEncGetEncodePresetConfig failed: 15 (NV_ENC_ERR_INVALID_VERSION)

i think is this one, i don't know, it happened 3 times now, i click on "start streaming" and my obs is automatically recording at the same time, so i need to stop the recording and then hit record one more time so the record is not froze at the first 10 seconds

pine kelp
#

Is anyone around to help me? I can't get my dashboard to show my followers, and on the desktop app I don't have any recent activity.

You need to ask in the OBS Discord, as this would not be related to our plugin @primal veldt

ok

frosty flint

I'm having an issue where my kb/s will fluctuate from 4000 down to 0, I believe this would be an internet issue but I've ran multiple speed tests across different sites and they all keep popping up with the same-ish speeds (68 down, 6 up). Do I need to phone my ISP or is there something up with my network or is there something up with my obs settings?

ancient zodiac
#

Could be your obs settings, your firewalls, antivirus, anything that interferes with network traffic. but its not related to our service.

eager island
#

just updated to the latest version of obs.live
why does updating...

  1. screw over my overlay setup (size + position is always reset to default, as in what it looks like on one's first installation of the addon/plugin)
  2. clear my set hotkeys (media skip, alert skip etc.)
  3. clear the media request list? it's even cleared when i open it up in my browser
    just tiny nitpicks but i had like 10 albums in there that i wanted to give a first listen to :s
shell basin
#

Is there any reason when i use obs stream elements and start stream on twitch its all green but in obs its fine. but when i use regular obs without stream elements the actual picture comes through

shy mountain
#

@shell basin Update to 23.0.1

shell basin
#

@shy mountain i already have but i contacted obs support they siad its on their end and they are looking into it and gave me a temporary fix of changing color to i420 instead of nv12 and it has fixed it atm

charred surge
#

so i have scrolling stuff onb my overlay for recent followers and subs and so on. it all comes from my streamlabels via streamlabs.... how do i get this set up through your services?

tulip hamlet
#

Almost everything that displays visually on stream is handled in your overlays, which are created/edited in the My overlays section of your account. A single overlay can hold as many widgets as you like, with each bit info you're used to displaying handled by an individual widget.

@tropic lagoon I don't think so, but I am not 100% sure.

The studio mode still works, but the obslive part looks like that.

odd kraken
#

Can you try to start OBS as admin please?

snow pecan
#

Same thing.

odd kraken
#

Please use the report an issue function in StreamElements at the top in OBS, to report this to our devs, so they can have a closer look?

storm gorge
#

Hey guys, I have a rather simple issue that I feel shouldn't be that big of a deal, but I just can't find a solution. I have multiple scenes in my Obs.Live containing different overlays (browser sources) that feature a Media Request widget. Whenever I start a song on Media Request, every single scene with a widget outputs the song and not entirely at the same time, so it sounds kind of messy. Is there a way to only play audio from the currently active scene? Or do you guys have any other solution for the problem?

deep birchBOT
#

@storm gorge 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

storm gorge
#

Thanks for the quick replay. I've actually tried this, the problem is that with this option checked, every time I change the scene it will take the browser source about 1 or 2 seconds to load in, so the transitions are not smooth anymore. Any other way you could think of?

snow pecan
#

Sent the report, thank you.

odd kraken
#

You can use the Studio mode, to preload a scene and make the transition smooth.

deep birchBOT
storm gorge
#

OK, I will give that a go. Thank you very much!

charred surge
#

themes. in the theme editor it looks perfectly fine. but in obs the names of my latest follower and latest sub is messsed up. the bottom half is cut off

odd kraken
#

can you provide a screenshot please?

charred surge
odd kraken
#

You added the overlay in the same resolution you created the overlay in the SE Overlay section?

charred surge
#

yes

#

1770x720

odd kraken
#

Please create the overlay in 1080p and add it in 1080p to OBS, too.

deep birchBOT
#

@charred surge 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

charred surge
#

im ultrawide

#

this is my resolution in obs

dry sphinx
#

I would also argue against using an ultrawide resolution canvas, as that will take more resources, and Twitch restricts to 16:9 anyways, so your output is not going to look too nice

charred surge
#

ive been at it over a year

#

with his monitor

#

it creates black bars top and bottom

#

buts it s what i use. all the oteh r text comes in fine

#

except the follower and the sub

latent wagon
#

Why does my words for the alerts gets bigger than the alert?

odd kraken
#

@latent wagon I am not sure what you mean with getting bigger.
You can choose the animation in the text settings of the alert in the alert box settings in the overlay editor.

Been starting to stream using OBSLive and also trying to record the streams. After I stop the recording it seems to actually only record between 45 mins to and 1.5 hours and stops without warning or message

quiet wraith
#

My Alert box isnt showing ? any helps

#

LIke only a corner of it is showing

odd kraken
#

You added the Overlay at the resolution of 1080p?

quiet wraith
#

o wait one sec

#

Wait Can I change the overlay size in the editor

#

Itsa works on my other scene

#

but not my main one

odd kraken
#

You can chooose a resolution when you create the overlay.
The Overlay should be added to obs with 1920x1080p when you created the Overlay in 1080p in your overlay editor.

quiet wraith
#

Im lost

#

It works for my one scene but not for the other one

#

they have the same stuff

tulip hamlet

In the browser source properties, set it to 1920 width and 1080 height.

#

And then press Ctrl+F after hitting OK to fit it to the canvas.

I have a question. If I have a g-sync monitor and I use vsync in a game, will that mess up anything on OBS?

ancient zodiac
#

refer to the post above yours

proper bluff
#

Will there be a patch for having to log into my twitch everytime I load up OBS? Before I installed the LIVE extension, I didn't have to login and reauth my twitch for the chat and the stream info panels. Since I've installed the LIVE extension, I have to do it everytime now even if I choose the login to remember the computer for 30 days.

#

@proper bluff Please keep questions to a single channel. From what I understand, we are aware of the issue but there is no ETA at this time.

#

Is OBS.Live compatible with OBS 23.0 yet?

shy mountain
#

Yes - we do have some issues that the devs are also aware of, which should be fixed this week hopefully.

indigo rivet
#

What issues? I stopped using OBS.Live when OBS 23.0 beta first released because it caused my OBS to crash. Am about to intall OBS.Live now but I would like to know the issues

carmine dome
#

hello can i import all my scenes in streamlabs OBS to streamelements OBS

shy mountain
#

@indigo rivet One of the issues is, when opening OBS.Live, the twitch integration (stats panel and other OBS Studio integration) doesn't load properly, so you will have to disconnect your twitch account and connect it again from -> settings -> stream -> Disconnect.

#

I'm not sure on the progress of the custom bot name not being saved, but that is also a common issue.

#

Use it

indigo rivet
#

ok, thats not that big of an issue. Thanks

carmine dome
#

yes but diffrent file format

shy mountain
#

Then I'm sorry, but thats a SLOBS file which OBS Studio doesn't support.

ruby sierra
#

im using obs live and using the nvenc H.264 after the update today I've been losing frames and the skipping in game in a lagfest

shy mountain
#

Which game?

ruby sierra
#

apex

deep birchBOT
#

@ruby sierra 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

Hey.

Can you do something for me?

unique torrent

Yeah sure.

shy mountain

--remote-debugging-port=40404 at this in the OBS.Live shortcut

i'm asking what you see when you open localhost:40404 in a browser tab

unique torrent
#

oops

shy mountain
#

interesting

#

mind if we do a TeamViewer session?

#

I need to click on that streamelements

#

and that untitled tab thonking

#

unless you want to click on those and provide me with some screenshots

#

of places I tell you from

unique torrent
#

I can provide screenshots np

#

I downloaded the obs.live top of my already old obs installation

shy mountain
#

Click on the "StreamElements" one and make sure you are looking at the "Console" tab

unique torrent
#

shy mountain
#

ah yes

#

sorry

shy mountain
#

Ok, one moment. Hopefully the devs answer right away rooCoffee

unique torrent
#

Alright, I hope its not something from my side blocking something haha

shy mountain
#

Can you try closing OBS, then going to here: %appdata%\obs-studio\plugin_config\obs-browser and deleting the cache folder? (open the marked link in your file explorer)

#

then opening OBS?

unique torrent
#

Let me try :)

#

Did not do anything :I

#

If i switch to obs studio it works normally 🤷 i will try relogin

#

When i login it flashes the streamelements screen and then i just see blue circle spinning on blank background.

Then we are back with the blank background :D

shy mountain
#

Ok, so lets try something else - these 2 suggestsions are not from the devs
