Hey There! Just started using StreamElements combined with OBS.Live, and I'm loving it! Just noticed that for some reason my Host alerts aren't working? The event doesn't even show in the Activity Feed. Everything else works it seems though! How could I fix this?

deep birchBOT
#

@vague garden Due to 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 hosts coming from an online channel. If the hosting channel has been offline, we do not show it
  • All auto host events with at least 1 viewer
    Note: An offline host is when you see "X channel has just hosted you" - with no viewer numbers on the back
vague garden
#

Oh! That makes sense. Thank you.

Hello,

I have troble using Streamelements alert boxes. The problem lays in the "custom css" feature. The sound that is provided form the alert comes twice behind each other. If I use the alert without custom css, everything works fine sound wise. But I need to use custom css!
If I delete the source in obs (nothing is in it, no sources at all), the sound of the alert rings anyways! This was truely mindblowing to me...

So what do I do wrong here? It seems like the browser source is also handled from another source (we can't see)?
Also to meantion that I have deactivated all audio devices in the obs settings, since I am handling my audio sources my self for each scene. Which cannot be the issue, just to let you know. I ve tested to enable a standard audio device, nothing changed.
I am frustrated.

mortal summit
#

Can you get OBS Live on a iMac? I would love to be able to stream on my iMac with the activity feed video preview chat and activity feed and be able to do all my overlay transitions all on one screen

shy mountain
#

@plain compass Sound is produced by the default settings and the custom code most likely. Remove one of the two.

#

@mortal summit Unfortunately, no. But you can pop out the activity feed from the dashboard.

#

As for chat - you can also pop it out from your Twitch channel

plain compass
#

@shy mountain which default settings?

mortal summit
#

Ty @shy mountain

shy mountain
#

Im also gonna close your ticket, as I see you've raised one(or sent us an email)

#

@mortal summit Did you also raise a ticket? thonking

plain compass
#

Yes, I ve raised a ticket

mortal summit
#

Ye I did

plain compass
#

You can give me the solution here

shy mountain
#

Well solution is on top. Screenshot.

plain compass
#

But I deleted the sound you mentioned

shy mountain
#

via the clear sound?

#

and its still playing twice?

plain compass
#

yes

shy mountain
#

which alert is it?

plain compass
#

"If I delete the source in obs (nothing is in it, no sources at all), the sound of the alert rings anyways! This was truely mindblowing to me..."
This is not believable to me ๐Ÿ˜„

shy mountain
#

as in, subscriber follower?

plain compass
#

Can you see my settings?

shy mountain
#

im looking at your 3 different alert widgets in teh just chatting overlay Thinkies

#

so which alert is producing double sound?

#

wait

plain compass
#

follower

shy mountain
#

the issue you are facing with the the thing you quoted is a different thing

deep birchBOT
#

@plain compass Make sure to โ˜‘ โ€œShutdown source when not visibleโ€ for all browser sources (all OBS scenes). If using studio mode, uncheck โ€œSwap Preview/Output scenes After Transitioning.โ€ 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

shy mountain
#

I'm 99% sure the overlay is loaded somewhere in another scene

#

and its producing sound

plain compass
#

I will double check it, but I have a bad feeling about this

#

I have also checked these boxes

#

May it be in my cache or something since this is a browser source?

shy mountain
#

If a browser source is removed

#

its cache file is removed as well

plain compass
#

okay

shy mountain
#

removing a browser source to clear the cache is a method I suggest when something is not refreshing properly with the overlays.

#

Or is stuck with the overlays.

#

So its not cache

#

what I think is - do you have the editor open?

plain compass
#

what I think is - do you have the editor open?
I also double checked that

shy mountain
#

So close OBS

#

and have just 1 editor open

#

play a test alert and tell me what you hear

plain compass
#

Its in obs

#

in the browser is only one sound

shy mountain
#

Ok so close the editors then and play an alert from the activity feed

plain compass
#

kk

#

lol how

shy mountain
#

Are you using OBS.Live?

plain compass
#

ah you mean not in obs

#

yes

shy mountain
#

Close the editors, open OBS, and run an event from the activity feed.

plain compass
#

oh nice

#

the sound comes jus once

shy mountain
#

so it was the editor + obs being open

plain compass
#

but the alert is not shown now ๐Ÿ˜„ ๐Ÿ˜„

deep birchBOT
#

@plain compass The default resolution for StreamElements overlays (theme and custom) is 1920x1080. Please add them in OBS at their full resolution and use CTRL+F to fit to screen if necessary. You can then downscale your stream in OBS settings > Video if you'd like https://i.imgur.com/6bWXxjR.png

plain compass
#

thank you so much

#

I also used this from another computer, ans also the issue

#

omg

#

geez

#

Now it works

mortal summit
#

Any suggestions, when I'm looking at my overlays through OBS it is deleting/not showing my bar where subscribers is as shown above? As you can see it is the same bar as followers now playing etc

#

shown below**

mortal summit
#

Already done that ^

#

And it is still doing the same thing

shy mountain
#

Ok im not sure what the issue is thonking

#

im looking at the overlay and your screenshot

#

and see the overlay totally normal thonking

mortal summit
#

If you look at the follow now playing etc you will see it has a bar? Where the sub is? it has disappeared, on my overlays I have the same bars all across the bottom for everything but it isn't displaying @shy mountain this is a problem on all the different scenes just on different bars at the bottom on the ingame its the donation bar on the brb its the follow and on the ending scene it's the now playing

shy mountain
#

oooooooooh

#

should have used a snipping tool and draw around it Thinkies

mortal summit
#

Yeah my bad

shy mountain
#

reload the overlay

mortal summit
#

Tried it does the same

shy mountain
#

is it there now?

mortal summit
shy mountain
#

Ok, remove the overlay and add it again

#

as in - remove the browser source and add it again

#

Cuz its def. loading for me

mortal summit
#

Ok I will do it now and see if it works for me and I've just got my overlay so I'm trying to get all this sorted to surprise my viewers tonight ๐Ÿ˜„

plain compass
#

@shy mountain Is it possible to run follow and sub at the same time? Or is it by deafult

shy mountain
#

If the alert widgets are in the same overlay - they share the same queue for alerts.

#

If they are in 2 different overlays - they have their own alert queue

plain compass
#

ok as I thought

#

ty

mortal summit
shy mountain
#

Wth thonkingintensifies

#

why is that one not wanting to load

mortal summit
#

I know right it's bugging me bad jbxrloWtf

shy mountain
#

if you go in the editor do you see that missing bar?

#

Im thinking that the mac browser source plugin is not liking that specific widget thonking

#

so maybe, go in the editor, remove that bar and click on the other bars

#

then next to "layers" click on the 2 white papers with red dot to duplicate the widget/bar

#

and place it where the deleted bar was

#

save

#

and see how it looks

#

If you are like "what?" lmk and I'll do it for you

mortal summit
#

it's not loading different bars on different screens too so I have no idea i'm having issues with all the bars on all the scenes so I will have to check on the other screens for you which ones are bugging out

#

plus this is my editor

shy mountain
#

well it seems that its the mac browser plugin

#

Ok stop

#

stop posting screenshots like that

mortal summit
#

I'm only showing you which bars have the issues wont post anymore now

shy mountain
#

could have listed them sweating

mortal summit
#

Recent Sub - Brb. Recent Follow - Ingame. Recent Sub - Starting soon. Recent sub - Stream end.

shy mountain
#

perfect ๐Ÿ‘Œ

#

check stream ending thonking

mortal summit
#

With reloading it onto OBS?

shy mountain
#

yes

#

via the reload overlay button

mortal summit
#

Same issue

#

OBS still isnt showing that bar

shy mountain
#

wtf

#

im stumped notlike

#

Then my other suggestion is just removing the bars

#

cuz I have no idea why it refuses to load 1 single bar as they are essentially the same asset

mortal summit
#

I have no idea either ahwell guess thats the only option now

#

Ty for trying

plain compass
#

@shy mountain Is there a way to have a Instagram or Twitter follow alert in which every follow or like is shown on stream?

#

This would be such a good implementation

shy mountain
#

Let me check something

rugged quail
#

hello... i have an audio issue with media request, its sounding like a bad radio connection, a bit tinny

shy mountain
#

Wdym? Stuttering?

rugged quail
#

Like it's playing in a different room, very poor quality audio, viewers have said tinny

shy mountain
#

Close OBS -> go to youtube and make sure the quality settings are set to high or medium or something different

#

then open OBS

#

and see how it performs.

#

If streaming atm, then for next stream try this โคด @rugged quail

rugged quail
#

Will do thank you

peak spindle
#

HOW DO I start a stream because the screan is showing blackness

odd kraken
#

Have you started OBS as admin? Do you use GameCapture?

peak spindle
#

i dont know and i dont know

#

srry

#

im knew to streaming

#

wait yes i have obs as admin

odd kraken
#

And to capture your gameplay, what source do you use?

peak spindle
#

but i dont know if i have game capture

deep birchBOT
#

@peak spindle Please provide a log from your last stream. To do this, in OBS go to Help > Log Files > Upload Last Log File and paste the link to the log file here.

peak spindle
#

ok thanks ๐Ÿ™ƒ

#

is that it?

odd kraken
#

Two instances of OBS are running. If you are not intentionally running two instances, they will likely interfere with each other and consume excessive resources. Stop one of them. Check Task Manager for stray OBS processes if you can't find the other one. @peak spindle

peak spindle
#

ok now there is one

#

only one

#

wats next?

odd kraken
#

Have you added a game capture via the small plus at the sources tab?

peak spindle
#

ya

#

its already there

deep birchBOT
peak spindle
#

should i join?

odd kraken
#

Yes, please ask there. Thank you.

peak spindle
#

ok

warm herald
#

I keep having the issue where the webm animation for my alerts aren't appearing on stream? The words come up but not the animation at all

mortal summit
#

Is there anyway of having the same alert on my overlays for raids and host? I much prefer the host alert to the raid alert? Anyway of having the raid alert the same as the host alert?

odd kraken
#

Make the host alert look the same as the raid alert with setting it up with the same videos and sounds and settings.

mortal summit
#

I want the raid the same as the host :)

odd kraken
#

Then the other way around. Apply the settings of the host to the raid.

stable siren
#

heys guys, we have a tool to import overlay? Always im try import from obs streamlabs get stuck on 93% and dont finish the proccess.

mortal summit
#

All the audio is the same on the alerts but the video I cant copy over for some reason on my overlays? Is their anybody that can help or sort this out? I want my raid alert to be the same as host ty in advance

odd kraken
#

Is it a default overlay from the gallery or is it your own video file?

mortal summit
#

Default

odd kraken
#

@stable siren Make sure you don't try to import assets from StreamLabs or that the video files are bigger than 2mb, these are things we can't import.

#

@mortal summit Then you should be able to right click and download the video in the editor preview of the alert and upload it again and set it as alert video.

mortal summit
#

Tried that it isn't giving me that option for some reason

odd kraken
#

When you right click on the preview pic in the alert settings there should be an option to download the file.

stable siren
#

@odd kraken its a pack from NerdorDie - Glitch 2.

odd kraken
#

This should also have an option to import directly from NoD to StreamElements.

stable siren
#

the files content (.overlay) from streamlabs, for streamelements cant see any import file =/

mortal summit
#

Yeah it isnt there for me all I want is the same alert for the raid as the host same text same video but it isnt there for me ๐Ÿ˜•

odd kraken
#

What browser are you using?

#

@stable siren You should have got with the purchase the links to put in for streamelements as well.

mortal summit
#

That's how my host alert looks obviously it's got the animations set to it and the text in the box etc that's how I want my raid alerts to look like on all my 4 screens and I'm using a mac @odd kraken

odd kraken
#

Then you should be able to set the alert the same as the other one when you apply the same settings. to it.

mortal summit
#

And I've tried multiple times and it's not there for me I cant save the video to upload it otherwise I would have already done it :/

odd kraken
#

what alert pack is that?

mortal summit
#

I haven't downloaded any additional alert packs etc it's all the default that goes with that one^

odd kraken
#

Asking internally on how to do this.

mortal summit
#

Okay no worries just hope I can get it all sorted before my stream tonight

drifting rain
#

hi, i'm having a problem with my custom commands. i just made a new command but it doesn't let me enable it. Every time I refresh the page it disables it. I've tried signing out and signing back it and I've also tried parting the bot from my channel. Nothing has worked :/

odd kraken
#

What browser are you using?

drifting rain
#

Google Chrome

odd kraken
#

Can you try in an incognito chrome window please?

drifting rain
#

Sorry but how do I do that?

mortal summit
#

Right click on google chrome new incognito window ๐Ÿ˜ƒ

drifting rain
#

Oh yep found it

mortal summit
#

๐Ÿ˜„

drifting rain
#

on the incognito mode i see it has the old layout for commands, maybe this is happening because of the new one?

odd kraken
#

Can you send a screenshot here please?

drifting rain
rare night
#

You got a sneak preview

#

Everything is back to old now

#

๐Ÿ˜ƒ

drifting rain
#

oh cool xD

#

thank you

mortal summit
#

Is their a resolution to my issue or is it possible someone from the SE team is able to sort the alerts out for me as its not letting me do so?

odd kraken
#

I am still asking internally about your issue. Sorry for the waiting time.

mortal summit
#

No problem

rugged quail
#

@shy mountain tried your adivice, but it didnt solve it, but i worked out why...

My audio goes out to my physical mixer via the earphone jack, then goes back into my pc via the microphone jack , i recently had to reinstall windows et all and after some checking of the windows audio settings found the default microphone input setting had a default ticked box for noise suppression and mic boost... unticked that box and cancelled the mic boost.... back to crystal clear audio!!

#

I'm just getting started with streamelements. Before I was using SLobs, and before that I was using OBS. - I'm wondering if I'm best off to uninstall both of those before installing and trying to run and stream with the stream elements desktop app. - It seems like stream elements would probably work best starting from scratch, and that doesn't bother me either.

mortal summit
#

Supposed to be starting my stream in the next hour 30 max is their any updates on my overlay situation?

stiff quartz
#

Just wondering - but don't think it's possible... is it possible to get the alert sounds to be separate from the desktop audio? For some games I have to turn my audio down quite a bit, but that also means the alerts get inaudible.

rugged tide
#

Hi all! Trying to get my OBS Live setup. Was previously on StreamlabsOBS and am unable to import my scenes or alerts to OBS live.

gaunt patio
#

Can anybody tell me why a .png would show up fine in the overlay editor and the launch page but not actually show up in obs?
this is in regards to a custom alert

#

@stiff quartz You could probably open the volume mixer and turn the game sound down there if you still what alert sound volume to stay the same

odd kraken
#

@mortal summit Send you a DM.

abstract ledge
#

I am also unable to import my scenes from Streamlabs OBS to OBS.Live @rugged tide

#

Does anyone have a fix for this?

Imports do not go straight into your OBS Studio. They get uploaded to your StreamElements account on the site.

#

@low juniper That log is not from a stream. Doesn't help us.

@warm herald Please provide more details such as the kind of alerts, if they appear in your activity feed, etc.

@tulip hamlet i havent been able to stream due to as soon as i hit go live i drop 75% frames

@low juniper Please provide the URL of a log from a stream.

@tulip hamlet I login to the account and authorize, but the "Send Test Message" is still greyed out and the bot still responds with StreamElements

low juniper
#

@tulip hamlet i cant like i said as soon as i hit go live i drop alot of frames so i end it as i do i can give a log from a stream that didnt drop

tulip hamlet
#

@low juniper Let the frames drop. That's the point. The log will tell us why.

#

@ruby sleet Any chance I can have you record a video of you following the process so I can see the behavior?

Sure. Standby

@low juniper clean log

  1. Restart OBS
  2. Start your stream/recording for about 30 seconds. Make sure you replicate any issues as best you can, which means having any games/apps open and captured, etc.
  3. Stop your stream/recording.
  4. Select Help > Log Files > Upload Current Log File. Copy the URL and paste it here.

@random fable Is the overlay imported in the overlay section in streamelements?

#

@low horizon Log out via StreamElements > Logout in OBS.Live and log back in

#

@finite fractal We can't import files bigger than 2mb and assets from StreamLabs. Please make sure you don't have these in your overlays and try to import again.

random fable
#

@odd kraken Nope

odd kraken
#

Have you bought the package on NerdOrDie?

#

Most likely when you bought the package from NerdOrDie there is a manual on how the set this up with StreamElements provided by NoD.

random fable
#

I did yes, it is a long process tho as I did it previous and accidentally deleted earlier and thought this would be the best way to start

tulip hamlet
#

Importing will never be as good as following the instructions as the import will not convert the coding or anything to work in StreamElements.

#

Streamlabs has a different way of working.

warm herald
#

@deep birch and then what?

odd kraken
#

Please disable the streamer mode so we can see the connected account and take a look at it.

warm herald
#

Just did!

warm herald
#

Should be disabled at least lol

real oyster
#

@random fable That product may not be fully compatible with streamelements, at least based on what the nerdordie site says

jagged solar
#

I'm in the process of converting over. Will having streamlabsobs on my computer interfere with streamelements? - Also, should I start fresh from scratch with obs for stream elements to work best? I used it before I used streamlabsOBS and have both versions of OBS on my computer. I plan to uninstall both first

warm herald
#

@deep birch sorry forget the tag but i did disable streamer mode in discord

I've started using stream elements obs live and my CPU is hit 100% when I'm gaming. Obs is using 50 to 60% whit no game load and when I check it's the browser source that's eating my CPU. Any advice

When I check in task manager it has 1 of the obs browser page running at 36 to 40%

odd kraken
#

Do you use an animated overlay or/and the kappagen widget in the active overlay?

weary pilot
#

I do have an animated overlay. And I'm not sure what is the kappagen widget.

odd kraken
#

@jagged solar I recommend not to have SLOBS and OBS.Live running at the same time, as this can cause issues. There are import tools to help you, but you can also start from scratch in StreamElements.

deep birchBOT
#

@weary pilot Please provide a log from your last stream. To do this, in OBS go to Help > Log Files > Upload Last Log File and paste the link to the log file here.

weary pilot
warm herald
#

Do webm files for the alerts cause problems with never appearing?

odd kraken
#

@weary pilot In this log there is no output session. But there is High audio buffering in the log: Audio buffering reached values above 500ms. This is an indicator of very high system load and will affect stream latency. Keep an eye on CPU usage especially, and close background programs if needed. Restart OBS to reset buffering.

#

Hey there! I'm trying to use a 2 second video transition with a transparent background I just made on my OBS

#

The only video format that seems to work flawlessly is .mov, which has 124MB, it doesn't seem optimal at all

#

Any way to improve that?

All righty

#

Thank you! Sorry bout that

shut spear
#

is anyone else having issues with the obs live plug in for stream deck mine seams to have dropped off and wont reinstall

cerulean bison
#

I'm going to ask this again and hope I get new answers.

I am trying to set up a Custom Bot Name.
I have the Second Account. Its MODed in the stream channel as is Stream elements. It is also SUPER mod in Stream elements.
I have tipping on (even though I still do know why this is a requirement, but it is done).
The Bot is Subed to my channel at tir 3, and I rechecked, the Custom Chat name is.

The Bot account and Stream Account do not share a Email, so I hope that is not the issue.

REgardless, THE BOT NAME DOESNT SHOW IN THE LIST... so No Custom Bot.

(On a New PC, Fresh installs on all software

#

Im trying to do this through OBS.live... not the Ground Control.

ruby sleet
#

@cerulean bison I am having the same issue. Now there's 2 of us, hopefully we'll get someone who can help us.

cerulean bison
#

@ruby sleet I have done Everything and more. I have also filed a ticket "report an issue", so I HOPE its just a "wait for the update" kind of fix.

tulip hamlet
#

It's more of a "it's 5:30 AM and the devs are asleep" kind of situation.

cerulean bison
#

@ruby sleet Thank you for saying something. It's been 3 Days to try to get a 5 min issues to work...

#

@tulip hamlet I hope not. ๐Ÿ˜ƒ

tulip hamlet
#

Hope not what? Hope it's not 5:30 AM?

cerulean bison
#

No, I hope that its not a "5:30, Not our problem" kind of issue. If it's a but I hope they see it and fix it.

tulip hamlet
#

More of a "I'm not a dev and don't have the tools to figure out what's going on."

ruby sleet
#

Didn't realize the devs were on that much of a time difference. Thanks @tulip hamlet for trying. Should I also submit a ticket?

tulip hamlet
#

No, got your video already.

#

It's just, y'know, waiting for daylight.

#

We're based in Israel.

cerulean bison
#

where is SE based?

ruby sleet
#

Gotcha. I'll be up for hours anyways ๐Ÿ˜„

cerulean bison
#

I just saw @tulip hamlet .

tulip hamlet
#

I'd like to manage your expectations: a fix may not come until Sunday.

#

Weekend in Israel is Fri-Sat.

#

While they do some work over the weekend, I honestly couldn't tell you how much or to what extent.

ruby sleet
#

So you think it is an "program" issue and not "user error" and they'll need to push a fix? I can always use ground control til then, not a huge deal.

tulip hamlet
#

Yes, most likely not a user error, you're following the steps in your video just fine and it's not changing to what it should.

ruby sleet
#

K. Thanks again.

tulip hamlet
#

It actually shows your bot username in there.

ruby sleet
#

Ah. Ya, never got that for me.

cerulean bison
#

That looks like the panel from OBS.live

tulip hamlet
#

That is the panel from OBS.Live.

#

This isn't a widespread bug.

#

It could even just be something like an antivirus blocking a connection, to be honest.

#

Which, speaking of, you wouldn't happen to use Webroot, would you? Thing always likes to flag us with a false positive ๐Ÿ˜‚

cerulean bison
#

I see. I use Windows Defender as well as MalWareBytes

tulip hamlet
#

Nah, those wouldn't do it. At least they never have for me.

cerulean bison
#

I dont even know whet Webroot is.

tulip hamlet
#

What it looks like to me based on your video is it's like... not accepting the OAuth connection.

#

Happens sometimes in the browser too, and in those cases we tell people to start disabling extensions until it works.

#

But in this case, it'd be something else that'd interfere with the connection, of course.

ruby sleet
#

Browser extensions?

tulip hamlet
#

Wouldn't affect OBS.Live. Just explaining something that seems similar.

shy mountain

We essentially load the actual twitch chat in OBS.Live

Oh. I thought there was only a problem with me that BTTV emote didn't work for me but I got it

you got the thing im asking about or the emote?

I asked that the BetterTwitchTV emote does not work in your OBS

Click on "Streamelements" on top -> logout -> then login again

thanks for the help, don't mind without it

@sudden ivy BTTV doesn't show there. You'll need to go to BTTV Settings to get the Emote menu from them.

ok i tried

@dry sphinx BTTV works on the web but not in OBS

He was referring to the BTTV settings in the OBS chat window.

I added restream but it streams to facebook

#

how should I logiut and stream through restream

#

or is there any possible ways to go live on Restream and facebook at the ssame time

shy mountain
#

Our plugin doesn't support Restream, but click on "Settings" -> "Stream" and make sure you choose Restream as service.

burnt trellis
#

@shy mountain But it shows Restream right ?

shy mountain
#

what do you mean?

burnt trellis
#

It shows the restream service for streaming

shy mountain
#

Yes

#

But like I meantioned, our plugin doesn't support Restream

#

so the chat dock from us will show your logged in facebook or twitch account

burnt trellis
#

My problem is Ive done all but when I click start stream it pops a facebook streaming dialog box

shy mountain
#

That means you are logged into your Facebook account with our plugin.

burnt trellis
#

how do I stream to restream now ?

shy mountain
#

click on "Settings" -> "Stream" -> service "Restream"

#

login to your restream account

burnt trellis

I did that

#

But it streams to facebook only

#

orelse how can Iogout?

shy mountain
#

Streamelements on top -> logout

Thanks

#

how to login via youtube ?

shy mountain

OBS.Live doesn't support Youtube.

If you want to user Restream, I suggest removing our plugin

@cedar leaf The default resolution for StreamElements overlays (theme and custom) is 1920x1080. Please add them in OBS at their full resolution and use CTRL+F to fit to screen if necessary. You can then downscale your stream in OBS settings > Video if you'd like https://i.imgur.com/6bWXxjR.png

Hi guys, im having an issue with alerts. For example, yesterday when people would host me, there was no alert on stream... any ideas?

#

im using a super theme

deep birchBOT
#

@eternal plinth Due to 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 hosts coming from an online channel. If the hosting channel has been offline, we do not show it
  • All auto host events with at least 1 viewer
    Note: An offline host is when you see "X channel has just hosted you" - with no viewer numbers on the back

i see, so they should be working

attempting to configure streamdeck to perform the heavy lifting on OBSLive however the streamdeck software says "This version of OBS is not supported". have i done something to cause this, or is there very limited functionality between OBS Live and StreamDeck?

shy mountain
#

What is your OBS version?

#

and stream deck version

chilly steppe
#

21.1.0

shy mountain
#

Well thats the answer - latest version of OBS is 23.2.1

chilly steppe
#

when i go to check for updates, it says this is most current

shy mountain
#

21.1.0 has a broken updater so download the latest version from their website

chilly steppe
#

will it scrub all my settings etc?

shy mountain
#

no

#

unless you let it, but it shouldn't even give you the option

unless you are uninstalling OBS

Encoder start error
An encoder failed to start. This could result in a bitrate stuck at 0 or OBS stuck on "Stopping Recording". Depending on your encoder, try updating your drivers. If you're using QSV, make sure your iGPU is enabled. If that still doesn't help, try switching to a different encoder in Settings -> Output.

Hello Everyone, Can someone help me please?
Laptop : i7-4500 1.80ghz 4 CPU {2.4ghz} 8GB Ram, DX 12, W 10 Pro 64b Fresh Install 5days
Internet Connection : 300Mb/s Download 80Mb/s Upload - Fibre Connection to Home - LAN Cat 6
Connected: PS4 with remote Play, YouTube Account, OBS Live, StreamElements Doing Streams
Cpu Usage: Goes around 3-12-30%

1] Sometimes during stream overlays refresh, or disappear, or appear in min or I need to manually refresh thru Browser Properties.
2] Sometimes when I want to change SCENE, its taking time to load all Browsers , Screen & music will change immediately but overlays taking time.
3] Sometimes when i do stream, it will show me low quality of video, its on Preview and also on YouTube when i check stream video later on.
4] Is there any way how to reduce for minimum or remove delay between stream and YouTube? so i can react directly for YT chats ?
5] Duration on Stream, When i do streams, before from PS4 directly the maximum time was 12hours, so if i have 15hours stream, i can see 15hours before i open video, when i open it shows only 3hours, This is happening for stream thru ALL STUFF I LISTED UP it do only 2hours, so if i stream for example 10h stream and later on i or others want to watch it on YouTube it will show only last 2hours, but Video before u open it will show 10h of stream video.
6] Is there any way how i can add more songs in scene, so when one finish it will play another? i have mix 2hours songs, and i do not want to use loop for play again the same audio after 2hours, would like if other song will automatically continue, without i need to turn one off and another on.
7] Thank you all who red everything until here, and i will be happy if someone can lead me to way how to fix all these, and make stable quality of video all the time and long time, thanks
PS: My cpu usage goes around 3-12-30% Mostly around 15% lets say. Thanks

1 + 2) if you have "shutdown source" ticket in browser properties then it will take time to load when switching back to the scene (time depends how much is to load and how quickly your pc can download and render it)

  1. there is a default delay you cannot remove

  2. this is down to youtube, nothing obs or se can do about it

  3. if you are playing it through obs then add songs to the vlc video source

cunning nova
#

1 + 2 i untick those ... question: why they are for ? cause of one scene, or they helping CPU dont get heat?
So i cant stream more than 12h? is there even a way how i can record in same time? and later on upload on youtube? Cause i dont wanna refresh my stream every 2hours, can i record and stream in same time? even if stream dont have any :history: i can upload it to youtube no?
6] i did before, but i still heard music in background, in way i made it, i cant hear any music, but in youtube they can hear it clearly which im happy for, i will stay with that thats ok.

#

i saw guy streaming more than 15hours and he had video on youtube, dont know if was original from streaming, but i watch him streaming, and few hours later i could check his whole video... thats why im asking.
ps: what about 3? sometimes show low quality ?

#

What about stream setting for output, for Kbs, etc? any link for best settings? or any web what can generate specifics parameters for my laptop, to make it as much powerfull as i can? thanks again

odd kraken
#

Best to use the auto configurator in OBS.

cunning nova
#

I thought about that, if there is something like this, and i cant find it... where it is? thanks. what about more than 2h video, or how to stream and record in same time? and sometimes low quality? again thanks for helping guys

plain sonnet
#

your bitrate is set to 2k, when your internet fluctuates it will give low quality
if you want to record at the same time, then press record when you stream

In OBS Studio it is Tools > Auto-Configurtation Wizard.

noble wedge
#

i stream apex and its smooth on my screen but on the stream its very choopy i have tried lowering the bitrate nothing and i play other games with 6000 bitrate

deep birchBOT
#

@noble wedge 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

I set it up on Normal OBS Studio, and it works fine. So the issue should be with the Streamelements version of OBS. anyway to fix this?

#

Stream information dock disappears everytime i close OBS and i need to type into the chat box just to log in and have it re-appear

deep birchBOT

@solar crown If you are not seeing the OBS Twitch integrations and have OBS.Live installed, please follow these steps:

  1. Make sure you are on the latest and greatest version of OBS.Live ( 19.6.26.414 )
  2. exit OBS (make sure OBS is not running)
  3. delete %appdata%\obs-studio\plugin_config\obs-browser\obs_profile_cookies
  4. start OBS.Live
  5. Settings -> Stream -> disconnect -> connect

#

quick question how do i get this custom name to work on the bot? having trouble with it

#

just comes up with my name when i his test

odd kraken
arctic echo
#

thank you shall have a peep now

#

i dont have the custom bot name option in stream settings?

odd kraken
#

Do you meet all the requirements?

arctic echo
#

what are these requirements? should i have seen them somewhere?

odd kraken
arctic echo
#

yes i meet that, however in its not in this window

odd kraken
#

This is groundcontrol and not OBS.Live. When you go to Burger Menu > Settings > Custom bot name. Is the option enabled?

arctic echo
#

benno

#

ive just seen it

#

my bad

#

says everywhere i looked online i needed ground control so i downloaded it, not realised it was already apart of obs.live

#

thats why there is no option..

odd kraken
#

So you managed to rename your bot with OBS.Live now?

arctic echo
#

doing it now

#

so does the custom botname just default to the new twitch account or can you change the name on the fly?

odd kraken
#

it is the name of the new twich account.

arctic echo
#

gotcha

#

cheers for your help mate

shut spear
#

Ok I had asked about this a couple days ago, Is anyone else having problems with the OBS.Live plug in for the stream deck? Mine has uninstalled its self and wont reinstall. Says the version is 19.7.4.59 dtd 7/15/2019.

The Media Request doesn't play trough my stream. When i play the song, Desktop Audio doesn't pick up the sound, but i can hear it on my headset

bronze onyx
#

Hi there, I come across a error/bug Im play music from Media request but im getting the music playing double when i show the video on stream does anyone know what can be making this happen

deep birchBOT
#

@bronze onyx Make sure to โ˜‘ โ€œShutdown source when not visibleโ€ for all browser sources (all OBS scenes). If using studio mode, uncheck โ€œSwap Preview/Output scenes After Transitioning.โ€ 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

odd kraken
#

@torn talon Do you use any audio routing tools?

torn talon
#

@odd kraken nop. It was working fine. Just now someone told me they can't hear the requested songs

#

Everything was on default

odd kraken
#

Have you hit show on stream?

torn talon
#

@odd kraken found the problem...

odd kraken
#

what was it?

torn talon
#

I turned down the volume to 10% at the windows game app thingy (windows key+G)....

#

Shoot me...

odd kraken
#

oh ok. glad you figured it out.

bronze onyx
#

Ive just done the setting but still having issues

odd kraken
#

Do you have two media requests widgets in the active overalys?

bronze onyx
#

just one

odd kraken
#

Then please recheck that all overlays are set to shutdown when not visible and you have not running the active overlay in a browser or editor in the background.

bronze onyx
#

Fixed cheers forgot I have media request in another overlay silly me ๐Ÿ˜›

cyan adder
#

if anyone could help i still have the same issue my obs keeps crashing while im streaming and i have no clue what the issue could be. I just want to stream xd

olive temple
#

hey hey, been away a while, built a new PC reinstalled OBS live, and in the process of adding my scenes back in, when i noticed my fonts have reset to default, even though i installed them and under custom font it still says 'Hulkbusters'

deep birchBOT
#

@olive temple Google Fonts
More than 900 google fonts are supported at this time. You can preview them here: https://fonts.google.com/

Custom Fonts

Steps:

  1. Install the font on the streaming PC or choose a pre-installed windows font.
  2. In the overlay widget settings, select Text Settings
  3. Enable Custom Font
  4. Type the name of the font as it appears in the windows font directory (This is usually C:\Windows\Fonts)

Note: After installing fonts, the browser and OBS must be restarted for the font to appear.

olive temple
#

I've tried these steps once i installed the font i restarted the pc.

deep birchBOT
#

@cyan adder Please provide a log from your last stream. To do this, in OBS go to Help > Log Files > Upload Last Log File and paste the link to the log file here.

odd kraken
#

@olive temple is the Font coming up in the overlay Editor?

olive temple
#

the custom font box to me is a text box don't seem to have a drop down.

odd kraken
#

Enter the Name of the font there please.

#

Follow step 4 of what the bot linked above.

cyan adder
#

heres the log file

#

i did the same yesterday with you guys and it didnt help

odd kraken
#

In the log file is no output data. Please provode a log of a stream session.

rugged quail
#

Is there a way to copy the alert box from scene to scene or do you just have to build it each time?

odd kraken
#

Select the widget in the layers in the lower left of the overlay editor and select the two papers with the red dot above to copy.

cyan adder
#

heres the last file upload

odd kraken
#

I cannot read the log file. It seems to be broken.

cyan adder
#

give me a sec

#

is this working ?

odd kraken
#

Yes, it only tells me that there are two instances of OBS running. There is no output session in this log file.

cyan adder
#

what does that really mean ?

#

i just closed the obs

#

if thats the case

odd kraken
#

No Output Session
Your log contains no recording or streaming session. Results of this log analysis are limited. Please post a link to a clean log file.
To make a clean log file, please follow these steps:

  1. Restart OBS.
  2. Start your stream/recording for about 30 seconds. Make sure you replicate any issues as best you can, which means having any games/apps open and captured, etc.
  3. Stop your stream/recording.
  4. Select Help > Log Files > Upload Current Log File. Send that link via this troubleshooting tool or whichever support chat you are using.
cyan adder
#

ok

odd kraken
#

Please also make sure when you start OBS, that there is no other instance running. Check in the task manager and kill the OBS instances if needed.

cyan adder
#

ypu

#

yup*

#

my stream crashes when im live/record for like an hour or more

odd kraken
#

Any error message?

#

Is there a crash log you can upload here?

cyan adder
#

yes, it says error occurropted while streaming

#

any idea why its happening ?

odd kraken
#

Is there a crash log you can upload here?

cyan adder
#

and it started to crash like 3 days ago otherwise it was good

#

i dont think so

#

i dont find any

odd kraken
#

Can you provide an OBS log from that stream?

cyan adder
#

how do you make that possible ? sorry im not to good at those stuff

odd kraken
#

Search in the log file folder of OBS for the stream log where the error happened.

cyan adder
#

any help how to do that exacly ?

odd kraken
#

To get to the location where the log files are saved: OBS > Help > Log Files > Show Log Files.

cyan adder
#

yes im there

#

what do i do next ?

odd kraken
#

Search for the log file of the stream with the error. Then upload this one.

cyan adder
#

but.. how do i know which one is the error one i only see 10 total log files

odd kraken
#

It stores the last 10 log files. The name of the log file is the date and time.

cyan adder
#

yes

odd kraken
#

Everytime you restart OBS there is a new log file written.

cyan adder
#

can i send a screenshot or someting

#

ok

odd kraken
#

Send the log file here please.

cyan adder
#

the last log file i got

#

if thats how you do it

odd kraken
#

Are you streaming or recording?

cyan adder
#

im recording right now just in case idk

#

i was streaming earlier but it crashed

#

and i dont want to stream anymore untill i fix the case cus i lose a lot of it

odd kraken
#

Was it the same error message you have reported earlier these days?

cyan adder
#

yes

odd kraken
#

What was the issue last time?

rugged quail
#

Im having an issue with dropped frames

deep birchBOT
#

@rugged quail Please provide a log from your last stream. To do this, in OBS go to Help > Log Files > Upload Last Log File and paste the link to the log file here.

cyan adder
#

thats the thing i dont know the issue. i only get a message saying an error occurropted while streaming

odd kraken
#

The last time you told that you somehow fixed it. What did you do last time to fix it?

rugged quail
cyan adder
#

no i was wrong it appeard after like 2h

#

it werid sometime i can stream for like 5h then it happeneds

#

sometime 30min , 1h ,2h idk

#

its really annoying and the most annyoing part is that i dont know the issue why its crashing

odd kraken
#

@rugged quail There is no output session in this log. Please provide a log with a stream.

#

@cyan adder Best to hand in a crash log and an obs log when this happens the next time. I cannot really help you without these.

cyan adder
#

then how is it possible for me to not have any log ?

#

i dont get it

rugged quail
odd kraken
#

Every time you restart OBS, a new log file is made. So most lilely the log file is already gone cause you maybe restarted too often. It only saves a specified amount of log files. @cyan adder

cyan adder
#

ah ok so i will contact you when it crashes

#

sounds good ?

#

and wont restart the obs

rugged quail
#

Question, if i disable sli in nvidia control panel, can I then use one gpu for streaming

#

my other one, not the games one

arctic echo
#

any idea why as soon as i add a sound clip (.wav) it stops the alert from working?

rugged quail
#

bc my main is reaching 100% while my secondary on sli is only reaching 20-30 in most games

odd kraken
#

Not sure. Best to ask these kinda questions in the OBS support discord. @rugged quail

rugged quail
#

@odd kraken Thank you

odd kraken
#

@arctic echo What browser are you using? What do you mean by stopping to work? Does the alert not come up any more when you emulate one in the overlay editor?

arctic echo
#

im using chrome. i test the alrt and it work i add the sound clip to it, then the alert goes grey as it drops as to say something wrong

odd kraken
#

The alert goes grey? Can you record the behaviour?

arctic echo
#

sure gimme 2 mins

#

seems to be related to the wav files

#

yup just added an mp3 and its fine

odd kraken
#

I have to ask internally about this issue. Can you also hand in the wav file please?

arctic echo
#

Np 2 secs

@languid obsidian Make sure to โ˜‘ โ€œShutdown source when not visibleโ€ for all browser sources (all OBS scenes).

So, I'm trying to set up a custom bot name, and I've tried two accounts, but I'm getting nothing. It's just leaving the bot name thing blank and it either stays a white screen, or acts like it went though, but still says "set custom bot name"

#

if it's a problem on my part, then I have no idea what I did wrong

odd kraken
#

@trail ginkgo Afaik there is no option to disabble the adding via artist/song name.

Hey Guys looking For Some help i am running a i7 8700k overclocked to 5.0Ghz and a GTX 1070 i keep Getting the encoder Error at the bottom and go from 60FPS to anywhere from 30-40fps While Streaming/recording but this ONLY happens when Obs studio Live is on if i am using The Default Obs Studio it will run fine with 60fps? anyone have any ideas? i don't feel That Obs live should be pulling that much resources

fleet abyss
#

Anyone know how to import from another channel? In settings, it won't let me add another channel, just says the current one is already claimed o_O

shy mountain
#

@fleet abyss That means the channel is created in our system. If you want, I can merge them, but I will need the JWT token of both accounts.

deep birchBOT
#

@fleet abyss You can find your JWT token on your account channels page ("Show Secrets" to reveal the token): https://streamelements.com/dashboard/account/channels
READ ME:
This is a private security token. Do NOT share this token here or other public places, only with a StreamElements staff member in private.

fleet abyss
#

@shy mountain Merge would be perfect. DM'd you tokens - do you need anything other than those?

shy mountain
#

Nope - give me a moment

fleet abyss
#

sure thing. take your time ๐Ÿ˜ƒ

humble urchin
#

@shy mountain how is That a Obs issue and not a stream elements thing it only happens when i am using the OBS live Stream elements Plug in? When i am using OBS studio it works fine?

shy mountain
#

OBS.Live does not in any way affect encoding settings or anything in OBS besides adding 3 additional docks.

#

But ok, lets do this:

#

!obslog

deep birchBOT
#

Please provide a log from your last stream. To do this, in OBS go to Help > Log Files > Upload Last Log File and paste the link to the log file here.

humble urchin
humble urchin
#

So if i am reading correctly its Says I should use vsyc?

shy mountain
#

what ever the guide is suggesting.

humble urchin
#

Well its saying that my Encoder is over Loading due to CPU usage but my encoding is set to run off the GPU

shy mountain
#

6000 bitrate with the CPU encoder?(not the NVENC encoder)

humble urchin
#

its using the NVENC

shy mountain
#

NVENC (new)?

humble urchin
#

ya

shy mountain
#

lower the bitrate from 6000 to lower.

#

6000 is overkill imo

humble urchin
#

4000?

shy mountain
#

4000-4500 is more like the sweetspot

#

this allows even people on mobile to watch you

#

but just barely

#

if you don't get the quality options from Twitch

#

I would use 6000 bitrate only if I have a 2 PC setup

rugged quail
#

hey having an issue where it says obs cant connect to stream elements server where my twitch chat and notification box is? any help was working fine a minute ago as i was updating my overlays

shy mountain
#

Click on Streamelements on top -> logout -> login

humble urchin
#

i Droped To 4500 still showing the same but it also Says Try with Vsync i just turned it on And ran around for a few Seems To have Corrected the issue Thanks for you help @shy mountain

shy mountain
rugged quail
#

when trying to logout it says " oops we are unable to reach stream elements server"

shy mountain
#

Show me a screenshot of what you see.

rugged quail
#

okay and btw , its not me with the problem its my friend im in a call with im just communicating for him

shy mountain
rugged quail
#

Hey itโ€™s me the one with the problem

deep birchBOT
rugged quail
#

Iโ€™m one a 60 percent key board

#

On*

#

any tips it just keeps giving that error and it logged out and logged back in with same error

shy mountain
#

Something is blocking OBS.Live from connecting to us.

#

Thats all I can say.

#

Anti-virus or firewall

rugged quail
#

what would it be

shy mountain
#

or both

rugged quail
#

how would you unblok it

shy mountain
#

Well I don't know what anti-virus program you have

#

but most anti-virus programs have a way to force unblock connections in programs

#

and Windows Firewall should have a whitelist option

NANI? There's a site that picks out problem errors in OBS logs?

dry sphinx
#

It's pretty great.

prime girder
#

that saves so much time, I usually just read the log files myself

dry sphinx
#

Oh nah RIP

prime girder
#

because I've been around OBS since... its launch, really

#

there was so much garbage data in that logfile though

#

I really need to harass jim to see if he can find a way to read the max turbo the CPU reports rather than its base clock

#

some places cough NZXT BLD cough provide systems to streamers and disable turbo and you just don't know if it's on or off by reading the log. Makes a big difference

#

@solar crown
1 - How did you turn off 2-pass encoding?
2 - What game were you playing?
3 - Is turbo on on your CPU?
4 - What exact GPU do you have? I see it's a 2070 but that means little, I want the vendor and their model.

solar crown
#

@prime girder i havnt turned off 2-pass encoding? not even sure what that is tbh. Running apex, turbo isnt on that im aware of. ASUS ROG Strix GeForce RTX 2070 Gaming OC 8GB

#

hi there I am using stream elements and was wondering if I import my alerts from streamlabs to SE and how do I ensure its working during streams

dry sphinx
#

Can click the pencil icon to open the Overlay Editor & emulate test alerts with the bell icon on the bottom left of the Editor.

twilit magnet
#

@dry sphinx ok great, once I've done that how do I make sure the alerts show up on my actual stream?

dry sphinx
#

That'll be adding the Overlay's URL as a Browser Source in OBS.

deep birchBOT
#

@twilit magnet 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 โ˜‘ โ€œShutdown source when not visibleโ€ https://youtu.be/KDvLynUqXI4

twilit magnet
#

ok excellent thank you.. do I need to keep the browser source open during my live stream for the alerts to play?

dry sphinx
#

Only in OBS.Studio the Eyeball has to be open so you & your viewers see the alerts.

twilit magnet
#

ok excellent!

#

thank you!

prime girder
#

note that you can still see the activity feed and can keep your preview disabled

rugged quail
#

can you make donations text to speech

dry sphinx
#

Yes you can NAHYPE

#

In the Overlay Editor -> Go to layers on the bottom left to find your Alert Box -> Edit Tipping -> Should be an option to enable TTS I believe in the Text Settings.

on obs live or the website

I couldn't use their overlays because i could only connect to my twitch and not my mixer
