Too Bad
I just installed OBS.live and it looked really good. But without Tiltify its a NO GO
Back to streamlabs
Is it something that is going to be added?
Charity Streamers NEED Tiltify donations in their activity feed
You can add/upvote the idea on our Ideas board: https://strms.net/ideas
Tiltify is a standard thing, having to vote on it to be in the activity list? Thanks anyways 🙃
@glossy schooner If you want support you can upvote or add it. It's a 3rd party service and you can see a feed of donations on the Tiltify site
@glossy schooner If you want to vote it up, here you go https://streamelements.helprace.com/i1470-deeper-tiltify-integration
how has OBS.live adapted to the more recent twitch integrated features that OBS updated with? I ask because I do like the features that they added, but I'd like my alerts integrated. Can I use the OBS.live plugin as well as some of the integrated features that OBS now offers?
Yes you can use OBS.Live with OBS Studio on version 23.0.2 freely.
meh, so ive connected through "connect with twitch" using some test twitch account and cant singnout/logout each time i do that when i press connect with twitch to get on my main account it automaticaly logs me that test one w.o asking permission and stuff... Any idea?
Streamelements on top -> logout
yes, but when i do connect with twitch it connects w.o new authentication to same acc
Logout, restart OBS as admin and log back in.
How to hear my audio alerts when streaming from console?
Do you use a capture card?
Yes, elgato hd60S+
Then the capture card should be able to transport the sound from the console to the PC.
and you can then hear the alerts and sound from the PC
whilist playing on your console.
is StreamElements obslive working with streamlabsobs?
oh ok, both are great but only working together would be perfect, coz each is missing some feature to another, well gotta deal 😄
thanks
What do you think ours is missing?
and it won't be possible for our plugin to work with SLOBS due to reasons:
- SL is our competitor
- SLOBS is a fork(its own version) from OBS Studio
i mean obs.live is perfect addon, but obs for example is not having labels for notifications. And if streamlabs does then theres no such cool feature as Media Request if im not wrong
oh well, those reasons are quite understandable 😄
If you want on-screen labels to go along with the activity feed, then add an overlay from us 😉
yes! those overlays are also perfect, but sadly i cant use streamelements donation page and the feeds wont work, no offense, but poland is very limited ;-; all i can do instead is to spread good word bout streamelements*
What kind of a monster is streamlabselements? 
oh gosh, misstyped xD my apologies, meant steamelements!
👍
🤗 thanks for support still 😄
can someone help me cant see chat and my news feed
Streamelements on top -> chat + activity feed
ah shiet fixed XD
My activity feed won't connect on Obs, anyone else have that problem ?
We are aware of this and fixing it as we speak
Ah okay thanks
RIP
I literally saw this 5 minutes ago and notified the devs
I guess I gotta wait until it’s fixed then 😂
Its times like these I'm glad there are two options, thank goodness for Ground Control backup! Had to use it also when the bot wouldn't connect for me a while back (that part is all fixed now)
Apparently ground control isn’t working as well @fierce atlas
I was about to go live 😂
misread 😅 this is why you shouldn't multitask
Its what I said above 
then... at least there is the dashboard? 😅

activity is loading fine for me on the website itself
😂 my activity feed doesn’t update with new alerts 😂
I raised this problem before and I don’t think it was fixed yet 😂
oh dang
and its back
restart OBS.Live and GC

all hail streamelements dev team
Back confirmed yas
I was just here to make a fool of myself but I'm glad it's all sorted now 😂
coud be posible to change the way that the transmition information its showed more like it is in twitch? or the normal obs
in the obs.live the text its displayed different in a way less efficient
hey guys i just instsalled obs live and i'm not seeing the normal side panels on each side of my capture window
- Make sure you are on the latest and greatest version ( 19.3.8.351 )
- exit OBS (make sure OBS is not running)
- delete %appdata%\obs-studio\plugin_config\obs-browser\obs_profile_cookies
- start OBS.Live
- Settings -> Stream -> disconnect -> connect
i have an overlay where all everything looks fine when launching/editing it but whenever i open it up in obslive, the main background is missing half the time. Sometimes it shows up, but after switching scenes and coming back to it, it disappears. Sometimes it never shows back up even if I restart Obslive
Try to clear the browser cache of the browser source in OBS.Live.
is that the only fix? That sometimes works but sometimes does not. I was wondering if there was a more permanent fix to this issues
Hello I wanted to ask if there is an option with which I can use a hotkey to send a command in the chat. I only have 2 hotkeys in the activity feed. (reload Overlay, skip Alert) Similar to pressing a button on the streamdeck.
For example I extended my programmable keys with the keys F13-F24. I would like to use F13 as an example and then a command from the streamelement Bot would be sent. Is this already possible ? Or is this planned in the near future?
@queen hill As the overlays are browser sources, they take some time to load in. But they should load after a while. You can try to readd the source completely.
ive tried readding the browser source but same issue as clearing browser cache. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. Everything else in the browser source loads fine except the background only. The background is just a 3sec clip on loop.
Can you send me the overlay link, so I can test it on my end via PM please.
What OBS Studio and what OBS.Live version are you on?
I have added it to my obs and there seems to be no issue with it on my side.
these are both the latest versions I use myself, too. Having no issues loading your overlay so far for like 30 times in a row.
hmm ok. Currently for me today its working too so ill leave it at this for now and see if it stops working again. Thanks for your time!
If you are experiencing issues, please come back here.
hey, so ive choosen an overlay, saved it to twitch, and duplicated it to youtube, but scene with build in chat shows only comments made on twitch but not on youtube, any ideas?
There is no chat widget for YouTube.
how do we test followers
@violet musk 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.
thank you but how do i increase teh size of hte alwert
i got it ty
so i tst the follower and the aniamtion show up in the liv stream but i don't har the sound
hear*
Have you muted the browser or any other source?
Have you added sound to the follower alert and saved it?
when i play it thru thr browser i can hear the deafult sound
so my xbox sound is coming thru the twtich stream
and i don't see th browser soruce has an audio source
when you create broswer soruce
the browser source will be desktop audio when you added it.
sorry about typing i have an issue with my hands right now
guess i need to use virtual cable for that
So you added the alert as browser source to your OBS.Live on your computer and the desktop audio is also pulled up in OBS.
so what part is obs.live when you have the two side panels
OBS.Live is a plugin for OBS Studio which adds the activity feed and the twitch chat and the media request to it for example.
gotcha
you just emulated an alert and there was sound, as I can hear it.
is thre any way to have the alert not send to my pc and then back to twitch
Afaik there is no option, but I am not the expert for audio issues.
do you know when they are coming up with gooing live alert on facbook adn IG
It is planned, but no ETA.
@solid rivet 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.
Hello staff, I'm really wondering why my alerts are not working anymore, they were fine last week but then nothing comes up aanymore when people cheer and stuff
@staff
🤔
@spring gyro Don't ask in multiple channels, first off. Second, they appear to be fine.
But the second I did ask in a second channel I get a response. Then told not too, cool.
They appear to be fine when I go to streamelements.com and test the widget, but then when I'm live and within the OBS program currenty still open it doesn't work
So my chat and music request just went away and now look like this how do i get it back to my stream chat and music requests?
Log out and back in.
Close obs ?
my music request plays music double when I show the video on screen, anyway to fix taht?
@lapis copper 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
Thanks!!!!
hey guys dos streamdeck work with obs live im trying to add obs studio commands to stream deck and it states to open obs studio
I don't see anywhere on the StreamElements website to change my chatbot name to a custom ChatBot. Anyone have any ideas?
@rugged quail any ideas?
@violet musk reinstall/repair the streadeck software
@bold helm chech pinned video in this cgannel
Or
@bold helm 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.
Cool thanks a ton @shy mountain !
Is it normal that my OBSLive isn't allowing me to configure the bot through its options?
What exactly do you want to do via OBS.Live?
In OBSLive it allowed me to use a custom bot name, but ever since an update or two ago, I can't get the options to "lock in" as it were
OBS 23.0.2, OBSLive 19.3.8.351
I would choose "Set Custom Name" , the window would pop up. I'd log into my bot account, then it would take me to what looks like my account activity screen...
Clicking the X or Save did nothing.
But it looks like the options are finally going through.
it should be on the menus
Hey
I have an issue of followers and subscribers not being shown in alerts
Also one instance when I got an alert in chat for the follower but no animation in the overlay
Just got my elgato and streamelements recently (I’m new to both) and I’m wondering how do I set my window to capture my PSN gameplay anyone can help plz 😫👀
connect your playstation to the elgato, then add a game capture to your source in obs. in the properties of the game capture select the drop down menu for "specific window" and select elgato
@plain sonnet I’m using StreamElements not obs though 😫
same as you @quiet agate subs alerts doesn't pop on my stream and in my activity feed oO
@hasty tartan what do you mean by stream elements? are you talking about obs.live
@plain sonnet yes
stream elements is only a plugin for obs
IS SE working fine? I'm not getting any alerts
seems to be working fine, just followed you 😄
How do I add a command on stream elements for when someone subscribes to my channel in live stream chat
@hasty tartan This is in the modules section -> chat alerts https://streamelements.com/dashboard/bot/modules
its posible to make obs.live transmitioninformation window looks like obs normal?
- Make sure you are on the latest and greatest version ( 19.3.8.351 )
- exit OBS (make sure OBS is not running)
- delete %appdata%\obs-studio\plugin_config\obs-browser\obs_profile_cookies
- start OBS.Live
- Settings -> Stream -> disconnect -> connect
hey can i import Scenes from Slobs to OBS? Cant find how to
There is no way to import scenes from slobs, as they use their own, not open, format for their scenes.
Hello, follow alerts getting through, but i dont receive sub alerts - like nothing, no alert, sound, gif, it is not even shown in the side bar in OBS.Live.
Someone subbed to me on friday and it is not shown in my feed, but another guy who subbed when i was offline is there. And just hour ago another sub didnt show, no alert, nothing.
I havent changed anything in my setting, so I dont know where is the problem.
@frigid glen Twitch Prime (new and resub) and paid subscriptions (resub only) must be shared in chat manually by the person subscribing in order for the subscription information to be sent to StreamElements. For Twitch Prime, the user needs to have sharing enabled on https://www.twitch.tv/settings/prime. For paid subs, if the share box doesn't show up immediately it will when they refresh the page.
In addition, we're aware of an issue on Twitch's end that when someone newly subs to someone, there seems to be a 50/50 chance of the new sub not being shared by Twitch in the channel's chat, which means that we won't be getting the new sub information. If this turns out to be the cause of your issue, there's not much to do but wait until Twitch resolves it. https://twitter.com/TwitchSupport/status/1109722819053699072
Thank you @tulip hamlet
Thanks 😄
@torn spire When you select the burger menu at the top left of your activity feed, there is a setting to change the title.
Ohhh stream settings !
i did not know that !
Thank you very much for the quick reply @odd kraken ! really appreciated ❤
@cursive scarab Do you see a small reload button in the top left of the chat window?
What version of OBS Studio and what OBS.Live version are you on?
23.0.2
oh. off
oof*
i see the difference
dock vs under streamelements tab chat
@odd kraken thx, still new to streamelements but thx for that small hint
Does anyone know with OBS live if its possible to stay logged in between closing and opening it? Everytime I re-open I have to try typing in the chat window, which prompts a login, which then brings up my stream info to update
for me it stays logged in when i open it
:X
so it completely logs you out of twitch in obs.live? every start up?
I am trying to set up two different scenes that both have the media request widget active. When I try to switch back and forth between the two scenes there is a audio lag on one of them which causes a echoing effect. How do i fix this?
@strong gust 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
is there a way to prevent the load delay that happens now between scenes that have the shutdown source option checked?
@strong gust Check out this tutorial for OBS’ studio mode which allows you to preload scenes before transitioning. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W8iWsD2Lq3U
the preview scene loads and causes the same problem of an echo
You can try to make the MR widget in one overlay and add it to your obs scene and add it to the other scenes by adding the existing one.
i think i figured out a work around
Is there a way to quickly change between twitch channels? I have a personal stream, but also another used for something totally different. If I change my OBS profile and scene collection I am still logged into streamelements for the other account.
No, you'll need to log out and in.
@rugged quail
?
is there a reason why my stream quality looks better going through obs.live than slobs
im able to run 1080 60 p from obs.live if i run it on slobs it gets realy choppy
OBS.Live is just a plugin for OBS Studio that provides an activity feed, media request and chat window.
If you've used the auto config wizard on SLOBS, most likely it was not setup properly from it.
Even OBS Studio's auto config as far as I know is not recommended to be used.
As for why really? Can't really tell.
i used it the auto config and the stream looks pretty good
Hello I have problem my obs is stuck off screen any solutions?
Select the window in the task bar and select windows key + shift + arrow key.
I can move it but not minimalize it
Press F11, to get out of fullscreen.
does not work
so the obs window opens on another monitor which is not connected any more or what is the issue exactly?
this is my problem https://obsproject.com/forum/threads/obs-is-stuck-on-monitor-2.78925/#lg=attachment32863&slide=0
My OBS is stuck on monitor 2, normally i can always drag and drop it between monitor 1 and 2, but i cant anymore, i also cant minimize OBS anymore.
I have this problem since yesterday, normally its no problem since i always capture monitor 1 and my OBS is on monitor 2, but no...
click on OBS
yes
press windows key(start button between CTRL and ALT) + shift + arrow keys
Doesn´t work

I've just gone live but my chat in OBS is still showing someone else's stream chat. I have tried reloading it, closing and reopening it, and reloading it again, but no joy. How can I get it to show my chat without having to quit out of OBS and restart, as I am already live?
Log out and log back in using StreamElements > Log out at the top in OBS. This can be done in OBS.Live while being live. It will not affect your stream. Just the chat and the actifity feed will reload.
Well guys, i got a simple question. Ive downloaded streamelements live (for obs) to see the follower/donater/subscriber in my obs, it works fine, but since the "update" i cant change my title and my game in obs cause the "dock" left, do i need to activate it somewhere or can i change it on elementy? -> cant find it anywhre tbh
- Make sure you are on the latest and greatest version ( 19.3.8.351 )
- exit OBS (make sure OBS is not running)
- delete %appdata%\obs-studio\plugin_config\obs-browser\obs_profile_cookies
- start OBS.Live
- Settings -> Stream -> disconnect -> connect
Thanks really much mate, appreciate it ❤
I set up the Top Tippers widget but when i finished and saved when i was done it didn't show up on my obs side, any idea why that might be?
A bug, looks like.
oh; normally i can accept if i screwed up haha but simply setting up the basic top tippers widget is cut and dry
Long shot here.... Is there a way to activate a source when bits are donated?
Example: I have GIF portal that I want to pop up when someone donates bits so that is pops up and the bits fall out...
Possible?
Wouldn't that just be an alert?
When I add an image to cheer alert it still just does the basic bit alert
what am I doing wrong?
Change the variations.
Got it thanks! IS there anyway to make the alert sound only my uploaded one and not have the default bit alert sound?
Add it to the variations too?
These are variations.
Ya I deleted all of those so that it would hopefully act the same no matter the amount
You still need to save.
Well Im dumb
Why when I change the opacity of the Christmas Tree hype cup it doesn’t change?

I don't think that cup can be made transparent.
It's designed to catch the bits as ornaments.
hey guys im getting black screen when adding my capture card
@violet musk For the best OBS support, please join their Official Discord @ discord.gg/obsproject
How exactly do I use alerts with streamelements and OBS
I understand how to setup the alertbox in the editor on streamelements
but when I upload my video the text that streamelements sends in covers the text on the video
@c_harrison83#8095 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'm hoping to switch over from the other guy 😉 but building all of my scenes again is pretty daunting. Is there any way to import them?
If you have been using SLOBS until now, afaik, their scene collection is a different format than the standard OBS Studio format.
But its worth trying to export the scene collection from SLOBS and trying to import it to OBS Studio.
yeah. they use a .overlay instead of .json and there is no way to export to .json unfortunately. Seems intentional lol
So to rebuild all of my scenes, sources, etc. should I do everything in OBS Live or should I put together overlays on the StreamElements site?
So
Scenes and sources in OBS
and then an overlay with us and add it as a browser source.
If you have an alert box in SL, you can use our import tool, to import it
and just add it to OBS.
Any labels you've had and so on, can be added to the main overlay
which is just 1 simple link in the end
opposed to many many sources.
of labels
Makes perfect sense. I just wanted to make sure I understood correctly before building everything again. Thanks
guys how do i connect to my youtube its says only twitch
OBS.Live currently only has Twitch suport.
We do have plans for youtube, but no ETA.
Hi there, I've just reinstalled StreamElementsOBS.Live and it no longer appear on my Stream Deck... What can be the probleme . Please help 😃
Repair/reinstall the stream deck software
👍
Switched from SLOBS back to OBS studio this time with stream elements extension
How do I get stream elements overlays going?? Browser sources?? I also just woke up so everything is going over my head right now until this coffee is ingested 
@bold rapids 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
@golden crater Do you hav the chat enabled via the StreamElements tab or via the view > Docks?
is facebook gaming going to be supported by streamelements?
Try to activate the other chat next to it. Also you can try to log out of SE and log back in using StreamElements on top > Log out
@severe breach We have plans for it, bit no ETA.
ah ok cool ty
I'll try to relog. But my pc is currently occupied so I'll get back to you as soon as possible
So, I have my Twitter linked to streamelements (not Facebook and YouTube yet) but how do I change this to reflect it??
And this too
The Socials are just a Text Widget you can edit in the overlay Editor.
Oh okay, cool I’ll poke around. Thanks
For the latest tipper: it will Update After you First got your First tip in SE.
Hi, i have a question. How to add a standard greeting command in Elements. Like if someone would come and say "hello" , how to set up a bot or something like that to reply "hello viewer nr.11" ?
Not possible with StreamElements.
You can just set up a keyword and trigger a command/response automatically.
but then the keyword must be typed by the streamer to send the response right ?
no. In every message the word is and the colldown is not active, it should give out the response.
like !standard greeting and that would trigger, How are you today Cmdr
no, if someone types "Hello..." in chat the command should trigger.
Is that under chat commands
Keywords = These are words you can put anywhere in a message which will trigger the command, no exclamation mark needed
It is in the advanced options of the command.
Aa there we go, thanks for the help 😃
Why are bits moving sooo slow with my bit cup?
@weak saddle Afaik there is no option to make the bits move faster.
Have one more question, i just now found the Set custom bot name under Activity feed. How does that work, because it's asking me to connect to an twitch acount ? and if so would that twitch account's name be the bot's name ?
yes, you have to create a new twitch account for the bot and the twitch channel name will be the custom bot name.
@odd kraken you are on fire. Thanks again 👍🏻
@odd kraken No they are moving in super slo mo. I changed some stuff on my SE overlay and now they are moving Supppperrrr slow.
do you have a clip of that?
@odd kraken We found out that only the GIF emotes arent working the normal once are working just fine
BTTV has GIF emotes disabled by default, meaning you guys would need to set a localStorage variable to make sure they're enabled.
how do u make a folder to organize the sources
all our sources/overlays are stored online, you can kinda order them to set them to different games.
Wait so there's no way to put for example my webcam and frame in one folder under the "source" tab
you can create an own overlay for the cam frame and add it as browser source to obs and set this browser source to the folder in OBS.
Ohhhhh i understand now
I get this error every time i try to change the media on my alerts and with a facebook connection, i see no option for follow alerts
Do you use OBS Studo or OBS.Live?
SLOBS
This is the StreamElements Discord. You might want to ask their support.
sorry!
That is the acutal problem I know that it was working before. But since idk when all GIF emotes are just broken in OBS.Live Chat
And Lordmau5's solution could work I guess
Ya so it’s not just my bits. It’s literally all of my stream elements overlay lagging.
this can happen if your computer can't keep up with the rendering
when I streamed on laptop the overlay lagged all the time. I now have a dedicated stream PC and it's super smooth.
You can edit them in the overlay manager in the alert-box settings.
I refreshed my cache for SE and its good now... Thanks
no, on the website and add the overlay as browser source to OBS.
I recommend watching this guide: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LwAfMIR3Cj0
okay, brb then 😛
The subscription picture wont change, I am tryting to use a gif but it is using the same blue shark.. :/
¨'
What browser do you use?
Chrome
Make sure to also change the variations.
change them to what?
Set them up with your picture.
hello. Does OBS.Live support NDI Plugin?
OBS.Live is just a plugin for OBS Studio. It's still OBS Studio, just with extras on top.
See thats what i thought. but my NDI plugin is not on the OBS.Live. I have to switch over to OBS studio for it too work
I cannot get it to work with my 2 pc setup.
under tools it doesnt even show the NDI options.
@sick parrot did you install the NDI software on the streaming PC?
yea. been doing this for awhile. just today downloaded the streamelements version and it doesnt want to work now
we do not change anything when it comes to OBS Studio, we just provide a plugin
Which you can also disable in the top menu in OBS - StreamElements - Switch back to Studio etc
Try it, see what happens. i had NDI working with OBS Live
how do i switch back?
OBS Studio > top menu > StreamElements > Switch to OBS Studio
yea i did that. but how do i switch back to OBS.live?
it works on basic obs
and its not in the same spot for me. just keeps saying switch to obs studio and when i click it agasin it will say you are in studio

yea if i launch basic obs my NDI options are there and it picks up on my second pc immediately. but when i turn on OBS.Live on both PC's its not there.
Do you have the actual NDI software installed on the streaming PC?
or just the plugin?
yes.
i did not mess much with it, but without the full software it did not work for me
yes. i was streaming last night "barring the division causing issues". so It all works, but for whatever reason im not seeing it on OBS.Live. I would much prefer to use this over SLOBS
Like i said, OBS.Live does not change anything when it comes to core OBS functions here
same goes for all the third party plugins
i know what your saying. but i can screen share and prove to you its causing an issue
I can't explain it and i would need to look deeper into that. Not too familiar with NDI, tested that for a few streams myself.
But i know the NDI plugin will always show up if installed correctly
You need the full installation of NDI Tools to make it work properly
Has the coding team found any solutions for the echoing / repeating on media request with OBS.Live yet? Are there any solutions to try? My post got deleted last time I linked an example of what I am talking about
If you're hearing double audio it's because you have media request open in multiple places/overlays.
Okay when I ran setup when it first came out on OBS.Live - it auto added a source called "media request" - is that correct?
should that be?
OBS.Live doesn't automatically add sources to your scenes.
so then I should delete what it added?
It didn't add anything. OBS.Live doesn't automatically add sources to your scenes. It doesn't have the capability.
Okay... when media request first came out on OBS.Live - I clicked setup, then there was a new source that I didn't add - should I delete that source or not?
I cannot advise you on that as I don't know what source you're referring to, or what it contains.
Getting back to the issue, to repeat: If you're hearing double audio it's because you have media request open in multiple places/overlays. If you're not using Show on stream, then it's not playing from overlays, so you need to make sure you don't have Media request open in multiple places, like in OBS.Live and browser and Ground Control.
In Stream store, when you are adding a new item, and if you make it one that will be only a sound, the sound volume slider does not work in there. The sound will often play at full volume, and often to loud for the stream. No way to adjust it. Just thought i would say it here.
Is there a way to make the overlay NOT clip to the side of every little thing.. In OBS I can hold control or whatever and things don't clip to the edges, can't seem to get it on the overlay editor.. Keeps snapping to the sides of things, really irritating for OCD LUL
ty
So i just did a full installation of OBS, Streamelements OBS and NDI on both computers. NDI does not show up when i launch OBS.Live but DOES show up when i launch basic OBS. something is definitely happening.
At this stage i would contact the OBS forum and NDI devs to check. Since we provide a plugin and nothing else, we can't fully support everything else.
They might have a better idea what is going on and we can fix that together.
Please use the NDI tools that i linked you to use that, NOT the plugin....
The fuul suite of tools gives you everything you need, the plugin is really limited.
full*
all i need is the plugin. i do not want to use the converter that you have to use with SLOBS.
Not the converter.. NDI settings are in the tool, the routing is in the tool, the output is just a source in OBS in that case..
And please ask in the official OBS forum for further support, since i can't do much more here. They have a way better understanding of the NDI plugins.
hy guys what view shows m if i haveany viwers
Menu in Activity feed.
nvm
Hey guys so I have the media request widget activated on my stream elements overlay, and the video does pop up on my stream when I click "Show on stream" but the stream cannot actually hear the music from the youtube videos
Do i actually need to add an OBS source like I did for the Elgato and webcam?
The audio should be coming from the browser sources. What do you mean by "add an OBS source?"
"Browser Source" "Video Capture Device" "Scene" Etc.
Right. Your overlay should be added to your scene as a browser source.
Okay. Your OBS should be able to pick up audio from its browser sources.
That's how alerts work, too.
Could it have something to do with the fact that my monitor doesnt have speakers?
Is your OBS not set to capture desktop audio?
Audio settings.
The tab labeled "Desktop audio device " was disabled. so I changed it to speakers
You're fine.
I’m trying to use the media request on my obs live for twitch and when I was setting it up I must have accidentally missed the step where you add the media request overlay. How do I add that now that I can’t do the setup again?
@slim tiger Go here: https://streamelements.com/dashboard/overlays
then click on the big pencil of your overlay to enter the editor -> widgets on top -> media widget -> save
I have the widget, but I just don’t have the actual overlay in obs
@slim tiger 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
Like I just don’t have the media request source on my overlay. So I can see the video, but I get no sound
Ok you are confusing me
Do you have an overlay with the media request widget?
Or what exactly do you want to have and is anything giving you an error or something?
Okay I have an overlay with the widget installed on it. But I still hear no sound from the music. All I see is the video
Is there a way to make sources show/hide every x amount of seconds? Like if I want my "!discord" graphic (source) to pop up on screen for about 10 seconds and then fade and then loop every 10 minutes or so?
@radiant flare We have an image rotator/slideshow widget that will do that for you.
Oh really? I must have missed it
That is perfect
I pushed show in stream and yeah the video popped up but no audio
No audio in OBS it self? @slim tiger
I can hear the music but the viewers on my stream cannot
Are you capturing your desktop audio?
No because I am using a capture card from my Xbox onto obs
And what are you using to stream? The Xbox or OBS?
OBS
Ok, so add your PC audio to OBS as well
@thick ridge 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.
For starters, update to OBS Studio 23.0.2
Your internet is not stable most likely.
Restart your router for like 10 minutes.
Okay thanks
I NEED HELP

did you connect your Twitch under Options > Settings > Stream > Connect?
what do you mean
sorry, opened OBS now to reference. start with File > Settings, then go to Stream > Connect
what do i click on files what do i do after i clicked on files
and after that

if you won't connect your stream using the Twitch integration provided by OBS, you won't get the dock with your stats, and we can't help you ¯_(ツ)_/¯
awesome. to get the stats you need to follow the instructions from earlier by keizar.
top -> view -> docks -> stats
i started streaming and then i clicked and then i saw the thing

With what now?

We don't have an integration for chew.tv
If you need specific settings guidelines I may recommend checking up with maybe the OBS guys at their discord in the general channel not help channel.

Thanks :o)
I installed OBS.Live but the activity feed and chat window both disappeared. How do I get them back on?
I believe it's in the view menu, but I'll confirm later today.
Yah I checked in the view menu but everything was enabled
@thorn ice On OBS -> Click Streamelements -> Log out -> Log back in
Thank you
No prob 
Is it possible to move the preview window to somewhere just like you can the widgets?
hi guys i have just clicked on the cross and lost my sound bars is there a way to get them back?
sorted thanks
@serene charm no but it's something that the OBS team is looking at. It's currently not possible due to the system were everything is based on (Qt).
Ah right. I'm moving it all around as much as I can because I'm now portrait mode on one of the screens but I think the way I have it will make it work kind of.
Don't forget that you can stack the docks you don't need all the time. 
*end
@plain sonnet Ende is right 
still no fix to OBS.Live losing all the Twitch integration stuff every app shut down? getting really boring having to keep repeating this step everytime....
@crisp heart
- Make sure they are on the latest and greatest version ( 19.3.8.351 )
- exit OBS (make sure OBS is not running)
- delete
%appdata%\obs-studio\plugin_config\obs-browser\obs_profile_cookies - start OBS.Live
- Settings -> Stream -> disconnect -> connect
trying that now
Hello. With the recent obs.live update a part of my dashboard disappeared (The one you change game, title etc.) Any quick fix?
@steel mural that worked nicely, thanks my dude

i assume im just blind or was this removed with the latest update?
@hidden mirage sorry, just saw your post! so, we need to clear your cache from OBS so that that error wont happen again when obs.live gets an update
are you on the latest version for both OBS and OBS.live?
Yes
alright, then close OBS and make sure it is completely closed
Okay
then go to this path in your explorer window (you can copy paste it) %appdata%\obs-studio\plugin_config\obs-browser\obs_profile_cookies
delete the folder in there
after that, start obs.live, go to Settings -> Stream -> disconnect -> connect
Hey thanks, that worked. 😄 What does Ground Control do btw? I can't seem to use it
it gives me JWT token error when i try to authenticate
ground control is like an activity feed with SR implemented
Ah okay. But all the features are on obs live?
yes, obs.live has both the activity feed and the SR built in
Cool. Thanks for the help 😃 You guys are always helpful
hey, glad i could be of help! have a nice friday! 
hey guys, I hope you are all having a good one. I wanted to get back to streaming after couple of months. Now while streaming my game does not ruyn smooth at all. The stream seems to be perfectly fine. I treid using the twitch inspector which tells me as well that everything seems to be fine with the stream. What could be the issue here? Should reinstall OBS?
ah yeah. I did not have this issue before
😃
@gray vector 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.
hey so i wanted to put the overlays in my se obs yet it redirects me to the themes gallery
@gray vector you need to update obs
@bleak valve you copied the url from chrome, you need to copy it from the editor
OBS Studio 23.1
@bleak valve 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
how can i test overlays?
if you mean alerts, in the overlay editor bottom left is a blue bell icon, press that and choose an option
I needed to log out of Streamelements inside of OBS in order to have access to all of the features of the Stream Deck and now I am unable to log back in. Whenever I click connect with twitch it just becomees unresponsive.
in case this ever comes up again for anyone else, I needed to uncheck always on top and change view to multiscreen windowed and it kept me from blocking the twitch login from popping up.
resolved otherwise
@plain sonnet unfortunately it did not help. But htanks
@gray vector 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.
hey quite not obslive helpdesk stuff, but obs itself, there was an update, ive updated, it says added twitch and restream.io integration, anybody knows how to run that?
Does anyone know where the dock for updating your stream title and the other one that showed current viewers, followers, watches, and stream up time went?
had it yesterday now it is gone
kinda upset its gone
Hmm
I thought I had done all my notifications
but ony my event list
It does not show hosts
and no notification
How to fix?
any supports on?
@tight charm or @steel mural
Hosting is the only problem I have, nothing else
Im having an issue with the media share. When I use "show on stream" so they can see the video , the audio plays twice. Any fixes?
Hello! Could I get some help with my c920 webcam not showing up in OBS after the 23.1 update?
^^^^^^Same exact reason i am here^^^^
Any luck @atomic ferry ? Ive exhausted my options
@sacred pulsar are any of your webcams working? I just tried activating my laptops built in cam and even that one doesn't work in OBSLive
LOL!
@atomic ferry oh no! I only have the one webcam to test.
Hi, after the update today the dock for my live dashboard for twitch went away and I don't know how to get it back
@vagrant hinge are you talking about the Activity Feed? Where it shows the recent alerts (follows, subs, etc), view count and all that?
No, there used to be a live dashboard like the one you see on twitch where you can change the game, title, and whatnot
@atomic ferry i got it to work if i tank the resolution to 640x360
It's in the Activity Feed menu
That's weird
Ouch! really @sacred pulsar? That's really not a solution.
I had a dedicated dock like the activity feed where I can switch to it and it would be the full twitch live dashboard
Let me try
@atomic ferry highest i got to 800x448
@atomic ferry no but i can at least function for the night
@sacred pulsar when I switch the video resolution/fps type in the webcam properties to default, it recognizes the camera for me.
But it's definitely at a lower resolution, and screws up my whole cam setup
So is there not a dock for the full twitch live dashboard then? Because I had one but it's gone now
ya the aspect ratio is off that way....bummer
@vagrant hinge Go to Settings > Stream and reconnect your account.
Thank you, that fixed it immediately
Actually, relogging for problems with the docks is often the fix for it. Same for the docks that OBS.Live adds but there you have to relog via the StreamElements menu at the top
Alright, I'll keep that in mind in the future thank you so much

my audience can hear me but not the game
@sacred pulsar I figured it out! Under the video properties, change the video format to MJPEG, and that activated the c920 at my custom resolution of 1280x720.
@hushed comet capture your default sound for your desktop audio channel
So I just updated today and a game I was playing was looking really laggy. No dropped frames or anything, but the gameplay output looked awful when it is normally smooth. I tried changing the encoder presets, and my setting were the same as last time when I played before updating. Any clue what the problem is?
@small haven 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 didn't have problems before - do you know how I could possibly fix it?
I'm just confused because it hasn't been a problem in the past with no settings changes
have you updated windows recently for example?
Nope - just the recent obs and obs.live updates
new game?
What would VODs help here with?

Hey guys! So I want to have a new camera overlay and i want to mask it so that its brighter and more colorful. I want to have these settings but there is a problem. I can't change the color at the bottom to this specific HTML. Can you guys help me out?
Is your overlay custom made?
nah i watched a tutorial on youtube on cool overlays and they were in the description
may i send u pm its link?
dm*
If its a tutorial on building an overlay via the browser source of OBS, then most likely you might have to ask the person that made the tutorial
or ask in the OBS Studio discord about: https://discord.gg/obsproject
no its not the overlays are ready by themselves to be downloaded. i downloaded the webcam overlay that i wanted and i want the scene color correction to have that color at the bottom
i added a mask scene at the gaming scene with the webcam overlay and i added a filter into that mask
if u understand me 😛
Unfortunately, no, as this has nothing to do with our plugin.
Or perhaps at all with our overlays.
Unless you have added the downloadable overlays to our overlay editor and then added it to obs and trying to mask it and all - not sure if it will work at all
what im basically trying to say is that i want this specific HTML in the color section 😛
but i cant find it
which color section?
Thats OBS
oh ok
thats a normal OBS log, we might need the crash log
Right bellow the "log reports" -> crash reports
Reinstall your Visual C++ package: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=52685

Anyone know how to recover the missing OBSLive menus for Twitch title controls?
i have the same issue, after the update i think they were removed @final verge
thx will do old fashioned way
@final verge these ones?
no :/
what obs.live menus are you talking about?
twitch refers to it as "Stream Information"
used to be neat and easy to update on fly before update.
the obs twitch menu? is your obs still logged in?
yes as just streamed fine
Yeh tried that hours ago. I will just wait for fix thanks.
and yes I have tried turning it on/off
then its best to ask in obs discord
@final verge For the best OBS support, please join their Official Discord @ discord.gg/obsproject
Hey can someone help me with adding my Elgato as a source to StreamElements?
@hasty tartan add a game capture in sources, then select the elgato in the drop down
@rugged quail click studio mode on the right side
@plain sonnet thanks
np 👍
I am trying to start my stream in obs and keep getting error message saying cant connect to server
any ideas or help?
hey before i used to have a feature that i could change my game information title etc from within obs however since an update not too long ago i lost that for whatever reason anyone know how to get it back?
Have you tried clicking View -> Docks? As should be there or if you need to connect your Twitch Account again.
i dont have the option for that up and my twitch is connected
probably should have disabled my facecam XD
As above, Missing since update.
thats an obs issue, best to ask in their discord
It seems odd as that window only showed when i first installed OBS.Live. Tried reinstall. Seems such a odd bug to lose a entire feature 😛 Have reported bug to them and shall await fix.
obs.live is a plugin to obs.
the window you are refering to is part of obs, not obs.live/SE
then when i updated obs live it was gone again
there has been no update to obs.live, there was however an update for obs
as you can see in your screen shot
i updated my obs and then it asked to to update obslive after that
Same. I have scanned all of obs forums and found no other mentions of missing window. Going to try something quick
Nah clean OBS only install, with no user settings, off OBS website, also has no option. 100% OBS confirmed and thanks for help. Will make post on forums now aswell.
@long quest we have the same issue, Even before the update I would always lose all my panels every time I launch OBS, it’s annoying. The only way I found to get it back is by typing something random on your own chat which will trigger you to logon to twitch via the chat panel. Once you login all your panels including stream information will populate again. It definitely has something to do with Stream Elements not retaining your twitch login after closing OBS, not sure if that’s by design or it can’t possibly retain your login once you close OBS. This has been going on for months now
did you not read the message above @fierce tiger 😁
i cant connect my obs to dlive anyone able to help
can anyone help me with my obs overlays? they just don't seem to pop up when im streaming ie when people follow me lmao i kinda new at streaming
Is someone available to assist stream quality troubleshooting with me?
@modern granite 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.
@bronze lodge have you added the alert widget to your overlay(s)
@compact oasis does that mean you cant stream to twitch/youtube?
i can stream to twitch and youtube fine just wont let me to dlive.tv as it should have it as an option in the drop down but dosent and i cant seem to connect through a custom
you need to ask obs
@compact oasis For the best OBS support, please join their Official Discord @ discord.gg/obsproject
@modern granite to fix the errors (https://glorp.ninja/obslog?url=https%3A%2F%2Fobsproject.com%2Flogs%2F2MssImIP9X66MFOU)
also change your encoder to NVENC (new)
then turn off PVT and look-ahead
@bronze lodge when you edit your overlay go to the widget section
@plain sonnet thanks I’ll look in the morning it’s nearly 12am in the Uk lol
yep, im almost off to bed : )
@modern granite you still have game DVR on plus theres no output data on here https://glorp.ninja/obslog?url=https%3A%2F%2Fobsproject.com%2Flogs%2FDizrD3WmPMPBUk3C
I followed the steps to turn it off so I'm not sure. Also I streamed for about 1-2 min then generated the log file so also not sure why it's empty
main issue is getting a ton of frame skips only when a is up full screen.
when a game*
I was streaming just fine with the same setting prior. This just started happening one night immediately after a successful stream and never stopped, no matter what settings I changed.
Can someone help me with noise reduction while streaming? like Keyboard and mouse clicks its too loud
@modern granite no https://glorp.ninja/obslog?url=https%3A%2F%2Fobsproject.com%2Flogs%2FTEuazKubhxzTCETb try closing obs then reopening it, do a stream then upload the log file
@glass isle Check the OBS filters guide here: https://obsproject.com/wiki/Filters-Guide You want the "Noise Gate" part.
@glass isle best thing is to look at the pick up pattern of your mic, when you know that you can adjust the position. also as fabi said, add a noise gate will help
i tried noise gate and suppression i can still hear my mouse clicks loud
maybe im just not doing it right or something
very likely. Make sure the Close Threshold is always lower than the Open Threshold or the Noise Gate won't do anything
I think something is now wrong with SE OBS. It is opening regular OBS when clicking and I cannot uninstall it
What are the steps to clear obs cookies again? New install of obs and lost the docks again. Sigh
Update of obs even.
You keyboard and mouse is way too loud. There's no good way to filter them out. You should get your mic closer to your mouth so it's further away from the keyboard/mouse
@hardy tulip
- Make sure they are on the latest and greatest version ( 19.3.8.351 )
- exit OBS (make sure OBS is not running)
- delete
%appdata%\obs-studio\plugin_config\obs-browser\obs_profile_cookies - start OBS.Live
- Settings -> Stream -> disconnect -> connect
its a headset so my mic is really close to my mouth
make sure that obs is picking up the correct mic (click the cog and go to properties)
its the only mic i have
if it is the correct mic you will need to lower the sensitivity in windows control panel then adjust it in obs
Also, I see you changed the volume for the mic in OBS. You should take a look at it's properties in windows. I'm pretty sure it's cranked up to the max there.
if you have a camera, it might have a mic built in
Default = Default in windows
Stick to default if it's the default device in windows. No need to make it more complicated.
Also is there a way to keep the chat in light and not dark mode? i have to unselect dark mode each time 😦
think i finally did it ty @steel mural @plain sonnet
@plain sonnet try this one
https://obsproject.com/logs/mHkCpIKNdNshcquI
how do I get the program to fully remove? it keeps failing the uninstall. I like the software, but its just not enough for how powerful of a system I am running. I keep having issues with drop frames
@ancient ermine 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.
@odd kraken i got osb just fine. its streamelements live i am having problems with
The link I linked you is a guide how to uninstall the OBS.Live plugin.
i don't get that option. i got it with OSB but the steamelements OSB.live …… the app with the rocketship, from my install wizard fails the uninstall every time
@plain sonnet I tried that and it won't show up once I selected Elgato under sourc
*source
ive disabled all bots..... i don't get why it wont uninstall. i still have osb icons on my start menu, but when i click on them, it says the program has been uninstalled. its just the streamlabs live that i am having issues with
i got it …… thanks for the help.....(heavy sarcasm...…) i redownloaded both programs and deleted the stream elements one first. if youre going to be assistance, you might want to actually assist. not ignore people or, as i have experienced in other help sections for your program, be sarcastic, and assholeish. pretty ignorant.
Hello! I'm using OBS 23.1 and Stream Deck 4.1.1.9975, but Stream Deck isn't detecting it being open. Thoughts?
why can't i enable !songrequest? it says it's controlled by the module settings.. but i have requests enabled under the module
Hey.... i ony got the 11... but on my system is the 12er Version running
So I've updated OBS to 23.1. And when it downloads the StreamElements plugin, it fails. Any way to solve this?
hello
i somehow toggled bandwidth test mode on my stream
anyway to disable it? i cant find it in my settings
Hello.
I was wondering if anybody could please helå me. Im new at pc streaming, and dont know how to show the game stream. I manadge to show my desctop in the stream, the blizzard app, but dont my gameplay. Do get sound of gameplay tho..
Good morning friendI’m trying to set up Stream elements OBS I linked my twitch but it keeps saying my stream key is invalid
@blissful falcon Try to repair/reinstall the streamDeck software.
@ruby mural For the best OBS support, please join their Official Discord @ discord.gg/obsproject
@formal shell When you have got enabled the MediaRequest on the website the slider in the commmands section is most likely a visual bug.
@broken pendant There might be something added at the end of your streamkey to get into this mode. Try to delete the additional text to your streamkey.
@eternal mango Try to start OBS as admin.
I've now imported some new alerts from streamlabs and my host alerts still don't work, both counts are set to 0 on streamlabs and stream elements, I'm completely lost to why it's stop working
@oak barn Due to recent changes to Twitch API, we have filtered out hosts and will only show these ones on your activity feed:
- All manual host events (0 hosts included and if filter set to 0)
- All auto host events with at least 1 viewer
So if someone hosts me manually with 0 viewers it won't work nomore?
Most likely not.
1 is the minimum amount for it to show then, why does twitch do this
Twitch sends us a lot of host notifications at onces and majority of them are 0 viewer hosts, so either we might filter ones by accident and think they are automatic ones, or we just don't receive it due to the amount of host events which might have not been send from twitch.
@leaden arrow You linked it in your OBS Settings, too?
It works on streamlabs for 0 viewers and I'm having a dig at you because this service is far superior to sl in my eyes, I just wanted to know why it just stopped working one day
I don’t recall doing that I’ll check thank you l
Does anyone knows if its possible to a pause/delay at the end of an looping media source? Or do i have to add 10min of nothing at the end of the video?
I think this is not possible in the StreamElements Overlay Editor. I think you have to do this yourslef. But the looping media do not start from the beginning for example when an alert happens. Afaik do they keep rotating in the background and just get visible when the alert happes for example. At least is this for gifs as far as I know.
I dont use the overlay editor for this video. Its in OBS
I want to add the delay in OBS directly
@sick valley For the best OBS support, please join their Official Discord @ discord.gg/obsproject
I dont know if somethings wrong but this happened
If you have set up tipping you can just skip this.
ok
@odd kraken please excuse me, I'm blind for this one. Idk how I didn't find the obslive helpdesk lol
Have you logged in to StreamElements using the StreamElements on top in OBS.Live?
I have. I have the activity feed open as well as a widget
Try to log out and log backin and restart OBS. Do you have to log in again then?
Just a moment. Before I do that, I think I fixed the issue. It's to do with Twitch chat, not StreamElements. Instead of a stream key, I used the "log in to twitch" option.
I switched it up, logged out of Twitch and now using the Stream Key. It's not happening anymore.
Do you think that is the issue?
yes, could be. But I don't know why it is not working when you leggen in to OBS with your Twitch account. This would be better asked the OBS guys.
Yeah it's most likely a problem on OBS' side, not SE.
Weird.. Because for the first week and a half, I had no problem. Then around 2 days ago, it started happening.
Hello. I have a problem with uninstalling OBS.Live. Every time I try to uninstall it from OBS Studio I get an error and it does not uninstall correctly. This time I am receiving a barrage of application errors.
I restarted my PC and opened OBS Studio. OBS.Live was not there anymore, but most of my sources had no property settings anymore. I have uninstalled OBS Studio and will try again.
Hey, I've updated obs.live and my twitch dashboard window has vanished (and it's not available from the usual menu option), I tried rerunning the 'bot and tipping setup' but that didn't bring it back either... anyone know how I can get it back? thanks
- Make sure you are on the latest and greatest version ( 19.3.8.351 )
- exit OBS (make sure OBS is not running)
- delete %appdata%\obs-studio\plugin_config\obs-browser\obs_profile_cookies
- start OBS.Live
- Settings -> Stream -> disconnect -> connect
@faint tinsel 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
thx
I had two OBS.Live updates. One last night and one this morning. Is it possible that the error was caused by updating too early?
thanks @odd kraken, reconnecting my account bought it back... it's odd that this seems to be the only way to do it, but it's much appreciated man 👍
Hello there. I'm fairly new to the streaming world, and my pick was StreamElements OBS.Live.
I understand how to use it, got a fancy overlay working, partially.
My problem is, that my alerts won't show. I know they're not supposed to pop up on my "main" screen, where my gaming is, but on my secondary monitor, it should show, right? With sound too, right? Because I get no sound either. I have to read it from the activity feed, if someone did follow me.
And, if i push the replay alert, in the activity list, then the alerts work as they intend. At least, how I think it should be. With sound, and a little animation, and the name of the follower. But this only works if I replay the activity.
Any help?
popups will appear in the stream preview in obs (or if you're watching the stream, then that video window), not on one of your monitors
It does not show in the preview window either. Not when it's "happening". No sound, no alert. I even asked my viewers if they saw something, but they didn't.
If i click the, replay button, on one of the activites, then it shows in my preview windows, as it should
@vital nexus is it this button you pressed?
Hey. No the ones to the right, of each activity.
for example: "SantaClaus followed your channel! And then the button to the right of that text. Same icon as you highlighted
ah that one, ok, could you check your overlay properties are set to below
Oh, would you look at that. I didn't have "refresh browser....." ticked on. Could that be it?
possibly, give this a try for your next stream. what this does is it keeps your overlays up to date when information comes in. however this will mean that the overlay will need to load everytime you go to that scene, it might be worth looking at using studio mode or having a transition that covers the screen while the overlay loads (if it takes too long for you)
Okey okey, I will try this. Thank you for explaining.
Ehm, should I press "refresh cache of current page" or no?
you can do, all that does is clear out the cache on obs and it will redownload the overlay
it doesnt cause any harm to the overlay
Allright. Thank you so much for your time and help, tadpole.
I will give this a try, hopefully this solves it. Thanks again 😃
thank you sir 😃
Hey guys! mediarequest disappeared from obs.live how do i get it back? 😦
Click Streamelements on the top of OBS -> Click Media Request
@odd kraken both softwares have been uninstalled/reinstalled
OBS also doesn't say the plugin is there like the instructions say it should
Try to run the repair of the StreamDeck software. I am sorry, as I am not familiar with the Elgato streamDeck and this is the only solution I am aware of, which helped all the others before you who had a similar problem with the elgato streamdeck.
So i didnt change any settings from yesterday but this update from today is tanking my framerate in obs
anyone else having any problems with that?
helo Im having an audio issue after the update. Can someone help me here sine obs server is busy?
I have a kinda bug problem which, why always by a new Update im losing the Panels "twitch-viewer statistics and the Title Setup Panel?
Theres also a Double Chat Option... is this normal?
Double Chat..
there is obs chat then obs.live chat. as for the information panel being missing, thats happened sine the obs update. waiting for a fix
hey guys, where would be the place to ask about streamelements overlay issues? here?
also the panel problem ^^" i think, im not the only one 😃
I don't know why, but it always give me fail when I try to update obslive! Can a mod send me a link where I can update obslive? ;w;
What do you mean by it fails? Can you provide a screenshot of the error you get?

And now, I dunno why, media request and activity feed is totally blank! owo
Can you uninstall OBS.Live?
I mean, the failed thing already happen to me and I remember a member of the staff gave me a link to download the update!
I don't think I need to unistall it! D:
It'll make installing it again a lot smoother, though. Which you can do from here: https://streamelements.com/obslive
Ok perfect, now is working! Thank you for the fast response @tulip hamlet ❤
I just updated my streamelementss obs and now it just eats my ram
@spare spear 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.
That's not a log link.
thats the link it gave me
What version of OBS are you using?
the one I downloaded from the site
21.1.0
Update your OBS please.
OBS 21.1.0 - This version has a broken auto updater.
so just fresh install?
Try Help>Check for Updates first, and then if that doesn't pull anything up, then yes.
It won't. Get the newest version from https://obsproject.com/. Your settings, scenes etc. will remain. Just install it over your current installation. No uninstall needed.
i downloaded the most reasent one but it still has the same problem
my task manager is just spammed with obs-browser-page.exe
Every browser page process is a browser source. Overlay, Media Request etc.
That's why you should add an existing source instead of adding the same source again when you need a source in different scenes.
this is from your log https://glorp.ninja/obslog?url=https%3A%2F%2Fhastebin.com%2Fxusesitubu
from what i can see change your encoder NVENC (new)
and turn off PVT and look-ahead
It uses the dedicated NVENC chip and it's using GPU when enabling "Psycho Visual Tuning" to enhance the quality (enabled by default)
the thing is though I never had this problem until I updated my obs today
you must have updated obs.live, dont forget you had an old version of obs
Not possible as your version had a broken auto updater so it must've been OBS.Live
Where can I see the latest patch notes? Accidently closed the window and now it didnt show 😦
For OBS?
OBS.Live doesn't have such a notification. I think you mean OBS itself because there was a update to v23.1
Mostly bug fixes tho
hello, I need some help, maybe you can help me 😃 when I use the obs.live's songrequest we can hear the music twice at the same time...
@summer geyser 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
hmm nope
Did you do that to every browser source with MR in it? Do you have multiple MR widgets in one overlay? Do you have the overlay editor open in the background?
How do you use MR?
when I click "show on stream" I hear the music twice, and yeah I have no MR in any browser behind
but when it's not on stream the song is normal
@odd kraken
Please make sure you don't have multiple widgets of MR added to one scene and make sure every scene with the MR widget is set to shutdown when not visible.
Actually I use "my overlay" edit on streamelements site, so I don't have a widget obs' sources, so I don't know how to 'shutdown when not visible"
You have got your scenes in OBS and to every source containing a link from SE you have to set this to shutdown source when not visible, as described in the bot message above.
so I have to add a "media source" in my obs and put a link to my songrequest widget ?
sorry i'm a noob xD
This is an video how to set up steramelements in the browser https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=17eUkoZ6eIs
After that you add it to your OBS and set the shutdown when not visible to every scene which contains an overlay from SE in OBS as a browser source.
I am having an issue where my cheer sound won't change to the mp3 file I am saving in the alert area of the overlay. All the other notifications that I have changed work fine.
Have you also edited the variations?
No. I haven't set any up. Does the cheer come set up with variations by default?
Yes.
If I want the same sound for all can I just get rid of the variations?
Yes.
Awesome trying that now.
Amazing!!! Thank you @odd kraken and @tulip hamlet you two rock!!!
how do i add stream chat to a scene un obs
Add "Your channel's Twitch chat" as a widget to your overlay in StreamElements, and add that overlay to OBS.
Hey guys, I've had an issue that's been ongoing for a while now that I've been trying to fix and I just can't wrap my head around, is there anyone here that knows why every time I try to record I receive the following error? I can attach OBS log files if needed. I've already tried messing with the Output mode settings, changing file types, output location etc.
Change the location the recording is going.
Already tried it my man
I've even manually adjusted the security settings to allow all users to that folder full access so it's not the file/location permissions
- Close OBS if it is already open
- Right click on the obs-studio program folder, select properties, then click on the Security tab.
- Under the Groups or user names section, click on Edit...
- Click add, then type in ALL APPLICATION PACKAGES. Select Check Names and it should underline to show it was typed.
- Click OK, then Apply, then OK, and finally OK again.
- Restart OBS and attempt to capture the game again```
this is taken from the OBS discord ⤴
I'll give it a read/go and get back to you, appreciate it!
If it doesn't help, well best to visit the OBS discord: https://discord.gg/obsproject
Thanks man ❤
Anyone else not getting alerts to OBS?
Elaborate please.
Alerts not working, go to Streamelements to test, see alerts on the website but they dont appear on OBS, have reloaded, re linked the source but they just dont show up
Do you hear the alert sound from OBS?
no, just from the website
Interesting
Indeed
Hi, mediaplay question (again 😃 ) -
When I add a list to the OBSLive mediaplayer it plays every song from top to bottom, every time.
Is there a way to make it play random?
I'm asking because I have a big list of songs I play, but every time I stream it plays exactly the same songs, in exactly the same order. The only times this does not happen is if my viewers request songs, but my crowd is not so much for requesting, more hanging out.
It gets especially glaring since a lot of bands have several numbers in a row in my playlist, which is not that nice if you hear the same songs...
I used to use Nightbot, and it would play youtube lists random, but OBSLive doesn't seem to.
I tried setting the Youtube playlist on random, but nothing changes.
The random feature has been requested a lot of times and should be part of our ideas board here: https://strms.net/ideas
Sorry... my bad, I thought it was already part and me just being poor at finding it
No worries

hi i have some questions
what are those?
for obs
so i recently upgraded my pc and now i can use x264
but it looks like nvenc and it still looks bad even thought its better bit rate and same res
NVENC is better as its dedicated. there is a new encoder, NVENC (new), this is your best option. just make sure to turn off PVT and look-ahead once selected
the thing is i have a old graphics card which the new encoder doesnt even help me
a gt 730
so the x264 should of looked way better than nvenc right awat
you might be ok with a 730. my old 750 ti handled everything fine on good settings
i know but isnt the new nvenc only good for the 10 series and up
the only other thing we can do is if you provide us with an obs log, we can look to see if theres anything we can suggest to change
how do i do obs log
i ran NVECN with that card
