Its going to be white, because you haven't finished the steps.
2) Open OBS(or restart if it was open)
3) Have the streamer go live and wait for chat to populate
4) Open your browser and type in "localhost:40404"
5) Click YouTube Chat
6) Point the (in browser) URL to https://youtube.com
7) Have streamer sign in (top right)
8) Select Dark theme option change to ON
9) Stop Stream
10) Restart OBS
11) Have the streamer go live and wait for chat to populate
12) Remove --remote-debugging-port=40404 from shortcut```
Nowyou can go on to step 4 and onwards
and you started OBS from the same shortcut?
7) Have streamer sign in (top right)
8) Select Dark theme option change to ON
9) Stop Stream
10) Restart OBS
11) Have the streamer go live and wait for chat to populate
12) Remove --remote-debugging-port=40404 from shortcut```
A few more steps left
I'm not sure what the 3 dots in the YT live chat provide as options
nothing lmao
try holding down CTRL key and then using the + or - next to backspace
Then im not sure about this one.
@shy mountain ok so i seemed to figure out how to make it bigger now is there a way to save this
It is saved, but i believe only session based
Im asking the devs if they know something
ok that would be great cause there is a way to mak eit bigger just need it to save lmao
@shy mountain anything from the devs
waiting
So on SLOBS/chatbot. They had a script which was remote parameters meaning certain commands could affect sources and scenes in SLOBS. Does SE have such a script?
Unfortunately, no.
@glossy mountain so dev came back with this:
var style = window.document.createElement('style');
style.innerHTML = "\n#content.yt-live-chat-text-message-renderer { font-size: 25px !important; }\n";
window.document.head.appendChild(style);
})();```
You can use this code in the console tab instead of the HTML part
but it won't save
and you will have to run this code everytime you start a Live stream unfortunately.
ok so i have to run this every time to do what
so every time i want to go live i have to run the comand in the 404 is what your saying?
yes
ok but i cant close it and run the regular program or i can
When you run the code in the localhost:40404 console
it will save temporarily until you restart OBS
ok i get that but i cant move the caht around and such with the 404 program open
ok but i have to open it ever time i want it and then i can close it again.
did the devs say anyhting about them maybe trying to make this a perm thing where you can be able to zoom in if youd like
It maybe a general YT setting you may need to change somewhere.
the Twitch chat font size is controlled via twitch settings as well.
I got ryzen threadripper 1950x and my stream lag every time when an alert pop out
this didn't happen before
the cpu usage reach 99% when the alert is played
and I have a separated streaming PC
try enabling/disabling hardware acceleration on obs > settings > advanced, see if it helps
it didn't help
!add
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 ☑ “Shutdown source when not visible” https://youtu.be/KDvLynUqXI4
did u tick shutdown on every browser source on all scenes?
hope it helps and ty too Ruben
@clever aurora 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.
see if that helps checking what's wrong, I have a ryzen 1700x and no issues, with yours should have much less
If you read the information in the log, there seem to be some steps that you can follow to resolve some of the issues you're experiencing.
Please visit the link that FriendlyNGeeks posted and attempt to resolve any issues listed on the page.
May I have some help regarding a webcam issue I am having with flickering, its an on and off issue that I can't seem to get fixed. Thank you
when you say flickering, can you describe a little more?
I have a problem
whenever I open OBS
it makes me unable to use my taskbar on the monitor I have it on
Press F11 to disable fullscreen mode.
and I have to minimize it to go on other apps on that monitor
if I do that I can't move it arround and it makes it look weird
on the bottom
print screen after you open obs and share here
it makes taskbar disappear
I do have my taskbar on hide in window mode but I would still be able to pull it out
I normally am
always on top in obs?
in OBS: File > always on top.
so I have to go to where I installed obs or what I don't understand this
make sure its not turned on
The webcam has different colours and stuff on my final recording, its hard to describe
Best to share a screenshot.
StreamElements OBS.Live has stopped working as a website or a program in Ukraine without VPN, what now? can you make a built-in proxy in a new program update or somehow solve this problem?
Activity Feed cannot connect, only VPN but then the stream starts to delay
I have newbie question and may be stupid one, is there a way to test your live stream before going live to test the sounds and all
yes
in OBS go to: Settings > Stream > enable bandwith test mode
that would make you stream to your channel without sending out notifications and going live
Thank you so much
don't forget to turn it off after 😉
I have 0 kb/s but i have goodconection help pleas de ?
Can anyone help me?
Ive changed my twitch name and for some reason the chat aspect of OBS. live isnt working anymore?
log out log in | obs>streamelements>logout
Ive tried that. It shows my correct name on stream elements.
Everything shows corrrectly and is working except for the chat tool on OBS.
nvm Im a bot. @fiery lava thank you
@wary dew i did that, but no video on twitch for me to see to confirm setting...
@bronze garden restart computer first
It won’t let me go live at all
did you login to twitch in obs?
I’m doing it via FB
did you login to FB in obs?
Duhh🤦♀️ this dumbo forgot she’d logged out of fb earlier😂
Hey can I get some help with a custom animation? For some reason the text isn't showing up as they should.
@cold lark click gear >> click non-mod mode >> change to dark mode ?
Go to twitch directly and change your chat to dark mode
obs live is known for breaking things? yeah if you are an idiot who updates obs knowing that new versions of obs won't support obs live then yeah sure 
This might not be the right place, but I have been trying to find a command that they type it in chat and then it comes back and adds it to a counter so if they type !send then streamelements says we have sent it 20 times this stream
There is a widget for the overlays that is "bot counter"
that does exactly that 🙂
you need to set the counter variable name in the widget and set a custom command with ${count variable}
Oh no way. so will that go in chat or on my screen?
Ya lookin for just chat
If its chat then just this: https://discordapp.com/channels/141203863863558144/199460642975907840/572671650655502346
Thank you so much
Hi, where would I find the text files that contain things like Latest Donation, Latest Follower, etc. so I can put that text on screen?
Those are located in the Overlay editor -> Widget section.
For a guide on the overlay editor check this video guide: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LwAfMIR3Cj0&list=PLCDDKlFdScbEwdx5AntcQIS1InkFJwHtv&index=5
hey, when ever I open up fortnite and OBS is running my Obs is crasdhing, for example: I'm streaming Fortnite and I have to restart my game, once my game is booting up its crashing OBS and its ending my stream. Any fixes for this?
@pearl spear 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.
My obs is crashing again whenever I launch it
Try this:
@magic moon If you are not seeing the OBS Twitch integrations and have OBS.Live installed, please follow these steps:
- Make sure you are on the latest and greatest version of OBS.Live
- 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
There is no obs_profile_cookies file
I don't even have that folder
So in the file explorer you type in %appdata%\obs-studio\plugin_config\obs-browser\obs_profile_cookies and its telling no such folder exists?
exactly there is no folder with that name
So the crashing on start issue started after you enabled the hardware accel. option or before?
or after you added a new overlay?
After I changed hardware accel but I don't think its to do with that because I was having this issue before
Its something to do with the overlay I think because obs launches fine without one
It is connected to the browser source
and I would like to find out why exactly
are you able to remove the overlay/browser source?
can you go here: %appdata%\obs-studio\plugin_config\obs-browser
here I can give you the crash log if you want
and delete these folders:
Crash log will tell me libcef.dll has crashed
there are 2 ways to fix this:
- Uninstalling OBS.Live, removing all browser sources, installing OBS.Live
- Trying to just update OBS Studio via their installer and then update OBS.Live via our installer.
But maybe one of the 3 folders is an issue.
Can you try with 2)?
If 2) doesn't help, then step one for now is the only way.
If it starts crashing again, I would like to know which overlay you are adding by DM me the link to it.
I also did a fresh install of obs studio and then installed obs.live and that didn't work either
The overlays were working on obs studio fine as well
libcef.dll crash is the browser source - something is making the libcef crash while having obs.live installed
the ideato remove obs.live, remove all browser sources, install obs.live
and seeing which overlay is causing the crash of the browser source is to try and pinpoint what is making it crash
the more info i can manage to gather, the more i can present to QA and devs.
I've done that before, but as soon as I add a browser source it crashes
I am just going to run with obs studio for now, can you keep me updated to any changes that might fix this
Ok, so we are gonna blind fix it, without getting an actual overlay that is crashing obs.live(libcef/browser source).
sure I will give it too you just a sec
ok thanks
Can you provide me with the last crash log as well?
and last log file?
both found in %appdata%\obs-studio
I sent it
Does anybody in here know how to install the plugin Spectralizer into OBS.live? I’ve tried several things but it’s not working, https://obsproject.com/forum/resources/spectralizer.861/ this is the plugin link
Did you click the big blue button under the pictures that said Spoiler: Installation ?
Have you asked in the OBS Discord?
this was logged in last time i exited the program and normally if i launch it the next time it stays logged in
so why is this not the case anymore?
Not yet @kindred fox , I’ll put it in there 👍
My thought was that it may not have worked because of the OBS Live extension
@mortal bone If you are not seeing the OBS Twitch integrations and have OBS.Live installed, please follow these steps:
- Make sure you are on the latest and greatest version of OBS.Live
- 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
hi all, sorry to bother you
but when i try login to twitch with OBS live, i sign in and then just the purple loading page forever
@echo fern Can you log in with the browser without any problems?
Can you send us a screenshot of your OBS.
Also try this:
- Make sure you are on the latest and greatest version of OBS.Live
- 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
thank you @odd kraken , wont deleting appdata remove all settings?
This specific folder is only for cookies which may prevent you from logging in correctly.
But you can backup your profiles and scenes collections, just to be sure.
thank you one sec, btw i have restarted pc and all (first thing i did
wow all done, thank you @odd kraken !!!!!!!!
looks like im signed in
hello, I'm trying to do hotkeys, and some have some overlap, which makes them both activate. E.g. one is Alt + Ctrl + numpad 1, and another is just Ctrl + numpad 1. Is there a way to make it tel lthe difference so it only does one of them?
I need some overlapped hotkeys because I have a lot, so it's hard to use purely unique key combos for everything
hotkeys for switching scenes?
what exactly are you using the hotkeys for @muted remnant
showing/hiding sources
Hey guys, I´m not getting mixer chat in my OBS stream chat, could someone help me?
@rugged quail It's in active development and for now, not available to everyone. To get notified when our bot will be useable for all users on Mixer, keep an eye on #announcements and #270206314561404928 
oww.....ok tnx
hey my host alerts arent working and theres no min for majority of them
@uneven echo Due to changes to Twitch API, we have filtered out hosts and will only show these ones on your activity feed:
- All hosts coming from an online channel with at least 1+ viewer
- Auto host events with at least 1 viewer - only from a channel that just went offline
Note: If you see "X channel has hosted you" with no viewers on the back, that is considered an offline host or a host with 0 viewers, we do not show these.
bot commands arent working at all
do you use a custom bot name?
my window capture source won't show any window content, just either black or white
for any target window
make sure if you have a gpu all monitors are plugged into gpu and none are plugged into motherboard
theyre only in the gpu
what window?
any window. firefox, discord, whatever program I choose, it's blank white or black
hardware acceleration on those apps stop capture
discord turn off hardware acceleration
same for google chrome
i did for firefox and recreated the source and still no go :/
you have obs open now and still nothing
yeah
can you screen shot it
@muted remnant For the best OBS support, please join their Official Discord @ discord.gg/obsproject

Disable browser hardware acceleration in the advanced settings in OBS.
StreamElements OBS.Live has stopped working as a website or a program in Ukraine without VPN, what now? can you make a built-in proxy in a new program update or somehow solve this problem?

Hi. Has Kappagen stopped working with bttv emotes? I can see the bttv emotes for emotesplosions, but for the chat emotes section, only emojis and regular twitch emotes are working
today and yesterday, whenever i open OBS it freezes and makes me unable to interact with my desktop. I have to hard restart to get anywhere. Has anyone ran into this before?
@plucky vessel try reinstalling obs https://obsproject.com/download
OBS (Open Broadcaster Software) is free and open source software for video recording and live streaming. Stream to Twitch, YouTube and many other providers or record your own videos with high quality H264 / AAC encoding.
@stiff roost try !emotes update in chat
if that doesnt work could be the bttv server having issues
that didn't work and it's been a few days since I've seen the bttv emotes work
do you have SE mod in chat
was last I checked - will review that
yes
global and channel?
yep
ill post in dev slack maybe they dont know
np - not sure how it got unmodded
its been happening i have my suspicions...
I'm not sure if I would be able to see a log anywhere
I think my Follower stats are pulling from my Facebook profile page and not my gaming page. How can I update the follower total?
whats your facebook gaming page name
Ed Hunter
screen shot your facebook gaming page
def looks like you need to use a private browser and add your gaming page
login with main facebook like always then add
from there you will need to pick different page
ok. cool.
ill have to play with it later but looks like it is still only showing 4 followers instead of 11
maually adjusted for your new account
Thank you
how do I add alert boxes?
@stray bear 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 ☑ “Shutdown source when not visible” https://youtu.be/KDvLynUqXI4

hey so on stream elements im trying to customize my cheer alert and it wont do anything if i change anything
Did you check the variations?
well it works on every other alert except cheer
Are you trying to edit the cheer alert to emulate it?
wait do i have to adjust it individually in the variations
if you are trying to edit the cheer alert and its still showing the default alert - yes.
or you can remove all the variations and then create 1 variation, which will inherit all the settings from the default alert.
yeah well i was just trying to adjust the fonts int the text settings but it wasnt changing it so i guess it needs to be done in variations
Hey I was told to come here a while back to fix my Chat OBS issue around darkmode, just a minor thing
makes sense now thank you for the quick response
twitch
How to enable dark mode for Twitch Chat in OBS Studio/OBS.Live
I'm using the OBS.Live plugin and it whenever i enable dark mode for the chat box, every time i re-launch it it defaults back to light mode
okay I'll give that a try
okay that worked, even though I already had dark mode enabled on both it just needed a switch on and off on both (Twitch Chat and BTTV) and it's working fine now, thank you :)
👍
Hey, anyone knows why the Start Streaming button in OBS always opens the 'Start Streaming to YouTube' window? In OBS Studio it will start the Mixer stream.
What is the expected behavior?
In OBS Studio (without StreamElements) it streams to Mixer. But with StreamElements it prompts to stream to YouTube.
OBS.Live doesn't have mixer support
as in, we don't have Mixer support yet.
This means that OBS.Live will somewhat overwrite where you are going to stream to.
Oh!! That would make sense. Thanks very much @shy mountain much appreciated 🙂
Hi, When i use the browser it takes a long time for it to load. 5-6 second delay after the transition. Can i have the bowser up faster?
browser sources depend on how quick your pc can download it and how much content is on there.
you can either set your browser source to not shutdown when changing scenes (however this can cause issues and isnt recommended for parts of the overlays)
or
have a custom stinger transition that hides the loading of the source
Cheers man thanks
np 👍

hello, my obs dont want show alerts.. i added as browser link but nothing
When you emulate one in the overlay editor, is the checkbox next to the emulation bell enabled?
Is the browser source resolution 1920x1080 in your OBS?
Got the pic with the resolution, but deleted it for security reason.
my website looks like this, what i using
When you emulate an event, does the alert come up in the overlay editor?
it shows when i launch the overlay in browser normally but in obs nothing. only sound work
link and setup is checked and its same
Disable the browser hardware acceleration in your advanced settings in OBS.
im stupid but i cant find it
In OBS: Settings > Advanced > Sources Card: Uncheck Enable Browser Hardware Acceleration
Hello, who can guide me in my configuration, I was using obs streamlabs, now I use obs live, and I was losing frames, I solved it by placing less bit rate to stremear, now the stream looks better but it continues with cuts, and more when I start the Gameplay and I don't understand why that happens. (The button is green)
@ionic bramble 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 the link here.
(Note: If you do not see an obsproject.com URL, you will need to update OBS Studio to version 22+)
I have a bug with OBS.live, its only the obs.live addon, not the obs part where the problem is
I know that there is no chat when im not live, i mean the white artefacts^^
"obs>streamelements>log out | then sign in" i will try that
i thought that was a video thing when uploading to discord
I would recommend reinstalling obs from website https://obsproject.com/download
OBS (Open Broadcaster Software) is free and open source software for video recording and live streaming. Stream to Twitch, YouTube and many other providers or record your own videos with high quality H264 / AAC encoding.
ok so first obs then obs.live
yeah weird, guessing between video driver and installing obs again
just obs
live will trigger update when you open
ye i mean that ^^
same issue
I try if its aswell will a dock from obs itself
same issue
its just obs with the streamelements as custom dock
try this> uninstall obslive and see what you get
@wraith valve Please follow these steps:
close OBS,
open the Nvidia Control Panel,
in the left menu select "manage 3D settings" and then under the list of options (right panel) press "restore default settings",
Start OBS again.
@steel blade Thank you very much, I will do the test, and I have to paste the link here, yes?
correct
Hey everyone, does anyone know how to fix the alert sound bug? I hear the alert audio through the preview but my stream doesnt! Thank you for any help and Happy Thanksgiving!
when you say preview, do you mean you have a preview and program window or through the audio monitoring?
Like the streamelements/obslive page where you see your stream, and monitor chat and what not lol
@steel blade https://obsproject.com/logs/gCD_zUiAaiVzks41
@lavish oxide https://www.take-a-screenshot.org
can you post what you see
i cant get my display capture to work
double check this
settings > system > display > graphics settings > add obs and set to power saving
what link?
By ruben
you have a new one?
Hi, what is the best way to synchronize my voice with my cam? Right now i have 425ms added as delay but during my stream it gets off sync again (while the settings are still there)
I'll check on, do you have a new one?
if the sync gets grater it might be down to an overloaded USB bus, try connecting the camera to a different port/bus
there is another option but i cant find it as im at work, let me search around for you
I will try it on my next stream Tnx
how i can updated obs
This page lol Im sorry if im bad at explaining, im new to the streaming world lol
Hi, is there any way to stop displaying a video in the store redemption widget if the video is over? Right now the widget displays the last frame when the video is over. Plus the sounds of the video is played a second time when the widget timer is over
known bug the devs are aware and tracking
@lavish oxide do you mean you hear stream alerts (like followers) but the stream does not
gaming bar off now
@plain sonnet yessir! i hear it fine on this page but it doesnt come through on stream
were you answering to me @fiery lava ?
yes he was
right click your browser overlay, select properties, make sure the option for "control audio in obs" is not ticked.
from there, make sure any browser source in "audio monitoring" is set to "monitor and output" (you shouldnt have any there if set correctly),
right click in your audio mixer and select "advanced audio properties"
also double check your desktop audio settings
settings > audio
and make sure desktop audio is set to the correct device you are using for your headphones
bugs are tracked internally only @vague root
hello, i streamed today and i got somehow scuffed sound but i nothing changed... normally i had no problems
someone know how to fix in obs
@rugged quail we don't know anything about your setup so that is going to be pretty hard to just guess what's wrong with it
@fiery lava fair enough. Do you know if it'd be possible to do what I want using gif/sound for now then?
how can i show it
maybe screenshot your audio settings
but i'm not shure if we can do anything about it though. we'll see
hmmm
@rugged quail 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 the link here.
(Note: If you do not see an obsproject.com URL, you will need to update OBS Studio to version 22+)
i just tried record very small thing and there is no problem but in my stream was so scuffed
@plain sonnet Thank you for the help! my browser in audio mixer was set to "monitor off." So that should solve my issue?
not at this time
old computer i know..
@rugged quail your core audio is either failing to start or not installed,
this shows for both of your devices
i would also double check your VAC settings
for anything else going forward it would be better to ask in the obs discord as they will be able to help more
@rugged quail For the best OBS support, please join their Official Discord @ discord.gg/obsproject
@lavish oxide either set it to monitor and output or output only,
browsers should not be in the advanced AM by default,
you may want to delete the overlay and ad it again.
you can emulate alerts in the SE dashboard and record them in obs to see if the audio comes through
How do I set up my greenscreen with OBS Live?
chroma filter | on camera under sources add filter | chroma
Ok, so I'm having an issue where I have multiple scenes set up on my OBS but when someone triggers an event, all the alert boxes proc at once, usually resulting in multiple audio files and animations playing, which also ends up usually crashing my OBS. Does anybody know how to set up OBS to only use the alert box for the current scene youre using and to automatically disable all others unless that scene is being used?
@carmine relic 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 ☑ “Shutdown source when not visible” https://youtu.be/KDvLynUqXI4
make sure the shutdown is checked
roger that, thanks friendly ❤️
Thank you, @fiery lava
Hi, I'm having a problem with the alert box and just overlay in general from StreamElements. I've set up the browser source in my OBS and put the link from the StreamElements Overlay. The overlay itself works fine but when I try to emulate a follower or something, the alert box doesn't show up on my OBS. I've been trying to figure this out for about an hour and can't figure it out.
@ebon parcel You can test Alerts via the bell on the lower right corner of the Overlay Editor. Simply go to your Dashboard -> My Overlays -> Pencil/edit button on the overlay. Make sure the "Show Emulated events on stream" option is on to see the alert in OBS/Xsplit https://streamable.com/h6qgy
Oh thanks! I didn't realize there was a "Show Emulated events on stream" options at the bottom haha
Hey so say if I were to switch over from strrwmlabs
sounds good already
Is there any way to get my viewers watchtime back? Instead of it resetting the watch time?
oeh, let me ask around for you on that one, because i think it's a no but i want to be sure about that
Ok btw hi Ruben 👋
Please connect your streaming account (Twitch, YouTube, or Facebook) with Discord by going to ⚙ Settings and then Connections here in Discord. https://streamable.com/eg92w
uh I did?
ah maybe it's because streamer mode is enabled 😛
How do I remove the emulated follower/subscriber/tipper from my overlay?
refresh the overlay
ty
@rugged quail i'm sorry but you can't import the watchtime from streamlabs
Awe
is there a way to delay a command
Any1 here who knows any good file converters? I need to convert some Mov files....
If this works you just made my day!
Tried some others but they screwed with the files...
it worked for me yesterday
didnt work for me.... hmmmm
file too big?
nah just removed transparency...
Files are to big to be used in the overlay in mov format
google had a good idea today, https://www.zamzar.com/ worked with the transparency...... buuuuuut 2gb file limit :c
Free online video converter, audio converter, image converter, eBook converter. No download or account required.
the biggest one is 2.01..........

how big is mov
just that one MOV
yeeeeahh.....

hey guys i would like to use copyright free music like NCS and monstercat any good approach of how to integrate with obs and twitch
If you're playing it through the media request feature, you can display the currently playing song on stream.
my concern is monstercat and ncs state no issues with Twitch but how do i know twitch wont flag it
Aside from reaching out to Twitch directly and asking, there's no 100% way to know, but generally Twitch's system will only search out the music it's been told to.
I have been working for the past two hours trying to upload and create my alerts on obslive and I'm trying to do my custom sound but I have been having an issue with the pre-set sound in the alert and trying to remove it, if someone could dm me and let me screen share it I would appreciate it so much!!
I hear double when I have shown on stream and media request is active
@tranquil blaze close stream labs when your streaming and it should work, and if you have open a tab that has your alerts close that, it should run directly through without any repeats.
I am trying to use OBS.Live so I am unsure how to do that @tall jasper so is it just to close the window or?
@tall jasper Edit the variations as well, not just the main alerts.
@tranquil blaze Do you have a chrome tab open of it too?
@tranquil blaze Make sure to ☑ “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
@tulip hamlet I have, I've been going through it for 2 hours and everything is turned off
Oh ya mean if I have a website with that layer open it plays on that also?
@tall jasper Please connect your streaming account (Twitch, YouTube, or Facebook) with Discord by going to ⚙ Settings and then Connections here in Discord. https://streamable.com/eg92w
Thanks for the help @tall jasper
@tranquil blaze Your welcome man 🙂
@tulip hamlet Done
@tulip hamlet tf man it works now, nvm so sorry for bothering you
I'm having an issue with one of my alerts text not bouncing out, it just disappears,
Which one?
a cheer one, a variation.
Be specific.
I created a variation cheer alert and I set the text animation exit to "Bounce Out" but every time I run the animation the text just disappears once hown
As in: Which variation? Tell me its name.
Cheer bit animation only for 1-99
Set the disappearance offset to 1 second.
Okay thanks
hhey guys how do i get the !discord to work in chat is that a custom command i have to use
or do i just need to link twitch adn dioscrd together
Yes, you need to create a custom command.
What?
Huh?
stream elements bot
Hey, I have a weird thing with alerts. Some day the alerts begin to stutter. The alerts start, then pauses for maybe 2-3 seconds and then continuous. And it's more or less arbitrarily when it pauses and continuous. It seems like the bigger files are affected, which means longer alerts. I have not changed anything in SE. What can I do? 😫
Can you provide a clip?
let me see
@plain compass If this is about your custom coded alerts, you're better off asking in #dev-chat
I'm not sure if this is where you ask but do we have a date as to when the S.E. Merch store will be opened to everyone? I already applied for the beta access awhile back and was just curious
Paste the link here.
Thank you. One moment.
Oh, yeah, these files are too big. Convert them to webm if you can.
Webm's ideal for alerts as it's still good quality and a fraction of the file size.
I mean the alerts ran with no problem at all
And all of a sudden they were broken
what changed?
Does the api change from SE side?
No.
You can check if it behaves any different with Browser Source Hardware Acceleration on or off but beyond that it's recommended you switch to webm so you're not loading 14+MB files every time an alert goes off.
hmm okay... what converter do I use since I'll have to convert every alert now
I have a decent number o f alerts
http://convertio.co/ is usually good.
Convertio - Easy tool to convert files online. More than 309 different document, image, spreadsheet, ebook, archive, presentation, audio and video formats supported.
default settings??
Default should be fine.
I will try
Or do I have to cut the connection between OBS and SE?
Is there a cace or something?
cache
Every browser source has its own cache.
so I will have to reput every source into my obs. Will it change anything?
No, you won't have to redo your sources at all.
Just change the files in the overlay on the site.
hey guys im going thru setting up all theg se options can someone suggest options for loyalty points
There's no right way to do it. Set it however you'd like.
ok ty how do you change the social media links on the profile page
The profile section of your account on the site.
Scroll down.
i ahve to double click ok ty
So I have an issue to where my host notification won't go off when I'm live
But every other alert will work perfectly fine
@wraith sparrow Due to changes to Twitch API, we have filtered out hosts and will only show these ones on your activity feed:
- All hosts coming from an online channel with at least 1+ viewer
- Auto host events with at least 1 viewer - only from a channel that just went offline
Note: If you see "X channel has hosted you" with no viewers on the back, that is considered an offline host or a host with 0 viewers, we do not show these.
oh ok ty
anyone able to help with why my I get an echo on obs?
@fierce imp Make sure to ☑ “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
Please help. I dunno which helpdesk to post this on, but my streamelements website isn't loading aside from the help button, a google search later, and I find a post from 2017 saying to come to the discord server and no other help from there.
What browser are you using and what country are you from?
New Zealand, and Google Chrome.
Clear your cache and reload the page again
nope that didnt work, now it's just a black screen
Open the dev console of chrome with F12
and reload the page
if its still black/white
click on thee console and see if there are errrors
if yes - take a screenshot and show me
🙂 👍
closed chrome and opened back up to see if that would help.
Hi, there is one obs-browser-page that hogs up 50% of my ryzen 2700x, if i close it from task manager, all my scenes and alerts still work, which makes me think its something from obslive using that browser source
It might be a loaded browser source in another scene that doesn't have "Shut down when in active" on
Have all 3 docks open(activity feed, chat and media request) and do the same thing
if nothing of the 3 docks "crashes" then its not our docks - you are killing something else.
i have checked all my scenes, every one of them has shut down when inactive checked
usually it doesnt start with obs, after a while, my game starts dropping to low 60fps and i check task manager and its one obs browser page hogging up the cpu
right now that browser page is upto 16% i believe
Well one way to find out which browser source it is, is the above way and if its not the docks, then its a browser source that is being active
Killing it from the task manager, won't help you determine which one it is
so maybe its best to start deleting the actual browser source from the souirces list to see which one it might be
you can always make a backup of your scenes
alright thanks i will check every browser source once again
Other thing you can do is, go into Settings -> advanced -> scroll down -> enable/disable hardware accel. - this might help the browser source.
found the culprit, it was the pubg kill counter, the process got shut down in task manager when i killed that source in obs
thanks for your guidance @shy mountain
pubg kill counter? 
its not by streamelements
is it an overlay from us with the bot counter widget?
ooh
i don't know if that is a relief or not 
But good that you found it 🙂
its a third party plugin in which u link your pubg account on their website and it shows the kills and chicken dinner count within that gaming session
Hey so obs removed my stream information tab and i can't find out how to add it. If you have any clue please ping me with the information on how to get it back.
@silk python If you are not seeing the OBS Twitch integrations and have OBS.Live installed, please follow these steps:
- Make sure you are on the latest and greatest version of OBS.Live
- 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 i somehow deleted my stats for my stream (how many viewers do I have and how long am I streaming) The steps above my post didnt work for me
This is the duration of the stream
if you are looking for how many viewers you currently have
We show it via the activity feed
if that is our activity feed dock
okay thanks but found how to activate it
i was talking about this one
btw what can I do against bots? My channel got botted last month. I wrote a message to the twitch support but didn't got a answere
Ignore it in general
you can't do much against it
If its chat spam - turn on sub only
as long as you report it to twitch you're fine
You are not the only one getting botted.
thanks anyways
2 months ago
damn not cool
shit happens 😛
Are you all working on a fix for OBS? I had to uninstall the plugin since it was causing OBS Studio to crash every time I launch it
obs.live is only a plugin, SE doesnt deal with obs actual
if your obs is crashing please upload the crash log here
cant figure out how to add transitions to my obs, the cog wheel doesnt actually click
any idea what i need to do to add transitions?
add a stinger to the transition types.
Wasn't sure where to post this question, but does anyone know how to animate your Text through the StreamElements overlay dashboard? I've added a fly in & fly out animation on it, but it doesn't seem to be doing it at all, it just stays static ?
Basically I have my total sub count showing, but I want it to periodically appear on screen for a few seconds, then disappear, not sure how to do it
animations work on alert box text within the alert box has different animations
Well yeah I know but there's animation options for my Total Sub Count, but it doesn't work? And I don't want to add a 2nd alert box just for my total sub count
(This)
animations in the UI should be removed in the new UI they are working on
😦 why is this happening?
can anyone tell me if there are issues with obs or twitch because my stream keeps popping in and out on connection issues and i never had that before
and my internet connection is fine I already checked this
and
could be the ingest server your connected to might want to switch from auto to a different one
it has always been on auto never had any issues before 😮
I just do not understand where this is coming from
like usual with these type of things :S
@fiery lava apparently one of the servers was having issues so i switched to another one and it seemed to have resolved the issues
thanks for the tip
is there information about minimum pc specs to run OBS with just a webcam and mic? no game capture?
i believe so
OBS Studio requires the following hardware and operating systems to function. Having a compatible system does not guarantee that it is capable of streaming or recording using OBS.…
Hi so I am having issues using the animated overlays on OBS which cause my OBS to go from using 2% to 3% power to almost 15% CPU power idk if it could be my hardware not pushing out enough power
15 is normal
without me streaming
make sure hardware acceleration for browser sources is turned on | obs>settings>advanced>scroll down
any solution to the stuck redeem widget emote situation?
@gritty galleon known issue you will need to refresh overlay
yeah you have less browser sources than me @broken hamlet
thats normal
Ok gotcha
@fiery lava if i refresh the overlay the widget doesnt show anything anymore just sounds
thats the only way to clear the stuck widget until devs fix redeem widget
ah okay, thanks for the update ❤️
hi, i have a problem with obs where whenever i try to start my stream it fails and says "hostname found, but no data of the requested type. this can occur if you have bound to an IPv6 address and your streaming service only has IPv4 addresses" and i barely know what that means...
screen shot, but it sounds like you bind ip in settings>advanced>scroll down
also you can try to sign out and sign in
obs>streamelements>sign out | sign in
its ok i got it now
cool
ok
How do I reset donation amount overlays
for tip goal how do i reset
??
@oak ivy inside the editor >> data >> goals >> set the goal amount
So question about making alerts. If I build alerts into a scene (in the website) is there a way to copy those alerts to other scenes? Or do I make the alerts as their own scene and just import them as a separate browser source in obs live?
Yes
You can right click the browser source -> copy -> paste as reference
The alert box widget can also be copied to a variety of overlays so if you build multiple overlays for BRB or Starting/Ending you can have it there as well
There’s a duplicate icon that will allow you to duplicate an overlay layer to any overlay you have
@kindred fox this is in the website or in OBS live?
Website
Inside the overlay editor
There’s a double square button
Duplicate widget thing
@wary dew has a screenshot
Okay bye
Y U wake up so late @wary dew?



It’s 2 am on a Saturday here
This is why i have to work a real job
to duplicate widgets from one overlay to another.

I’m not a code ninja
I can't seem to get my recorder set up ...
Can you elaborate?
Hey guys I'm having an issue with obs live, it does not launch - the process is there in task manager but nothing happens. Any ideas?
ugh, let me take a look what helped last time this was reported
checking the logs in case there's anything there
Is OBS installed somewhere else that is not "C:/"?
So OBS crashed this morning with the following error from the logs:
10:24:28.010: DShow: HDevice::ConnectFilters: RenderStream failed (0x80040217):
10:24:28.011: DShow: HDevice::ConnectFilters: RenderStream failed (0x80040217):
10:24:28.011: DShow: HDevice::ConnectFilters: RenderStream failed (0x80040217):
and then would not launch after
It is in C
So OBS crashed and doesn't want to start now but is lingering in the task manager?
no, I killed it completely and restarted several times
this is a different scenario then the previous report I helped with.
but since the crash it does not launch
you see the process executing in task manager
but no launch
What does the crash log say?
there's no crash log
%appdata%\obs-studio\crashes
yes Im there
if there is no crash log then it didn't actually crash.
there's nothing, I was looking at the regular log
Can you upload the log file then?
in case there was anything there
that's the log for when it got stuck/crashed
And here's one where it does not launch anymore
10:24:27.853:
10:24:27.853: 10:24:27.853:

@rare terrace For the best OBS support, please join their Official Discord @ discord.gg/obsproject
It was an issue with OBS live, not the OBS studio itself. Luckily a full reinstall fixed it. Also, luckily I keep regular backups of my profiles 🙂
My OBS live is not working I tried to fully reinstall it but didn't fix it.
When I start obs live up it automatically switches to normal OBS studio again anyone have any ideas?
can you screenshot what you see
obs.live is a plugin, as you can see in the menu at the top and bottom right
it uses obs actual
the plugin is working as you have the menu for it
Where do I get tthe thing where I see the people who follow me and host/donate
and stuff
Its still can't see viewers and stuff and it looks so different than before
What do you mean can't see viewers? Like the Viewer Count or seeing the Viewer list to see who's watching you?
See how many is watching me
I really need some help. I am wanting to use Streamelements OBS Live to stream to Mixer but NON of my alerts are working at all. Everything works fine for Mixer and Twitch when I use Streamlabs OBS but I like Streamelements better. Can anyone help me? I've tried everything.
view > docks > twitch stats
Click the Burger Menu in the Activity Feed -> Stream Settings -> Enabled Viewer Count @quartz rover
@glacial aspen mixer isnt fully supported yet
Ahhh thank you @dry sphinx thats what I was looking for
@plain sonnet But even my twitch alerts wont work
@glacial aspen You find it on youtube I had the same thing when I tried mixer out
@quartz rover I've spent the last two weeks on youtube and forums lol
Yikes I found it early I don't remember how to tho
@glacial aspen what happens when you emulate the alerts from the editor?
does it show in obs
@plain sonnet No. Nothing happens in OBS. But if I switch to Streamlabs, it works right away
Literally none of them work
@glacial aspen 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 ☑ “Shutdown source when not visible” https://youtu.be/KDvLynUqXI4
@glacial aspen have you added the url overlay from SE?
and not using the SL ones?
Yes, I've installed the Browser Source Plugin, removed all of my old alerts, made new ones, added the proper links to the browser source, and still nothing
im showing one overlay for you
do you have the alert widget in your overlay?
on twitch and it has only latest follower
👆
no alert box widget which is needed for alerts
same with having streamelements bot modded in your chat
"/mod streamelements"
@glacial aspen New to Stream Elements?
Check out our YouTube channel https://www.youtube.com/c/streamelements/videos
with tutorial videos from setting up the basics, to in depth details on how to use our product.

after that if you watch the youtube playlist you will see how to add widget to that overlay
Okay, I'll check it out again. Thanks everyone!
Before I go, when you say Mixer isn't fully supported yet, does that mean it doesn't work at all? Or it does work it's just difficult?
Mixer integration is in "Active Development" and will soon be released to the masses. Join our discord https://discord.gg/se and keep an eye out in the #announcement channel
meaning once its ready you will see a sign in with mixer button
Right. So does that mean it just won't work at all right now? Because My focus right now is Mixer so, I don't want to be kicking a dead horse
you have no way of making an StreamElements overlay of working with mixer
Hmm.. Okay. And I'm assuming you can't give me a rough estimate on when it will be ready?
devs keep us in the dark just like you
#announcements is where I would find out just like you
no other way for me to explain it
Haha okay. Well that's good to know I don't need to keep trying then lol.
Thanks for the help and info!
np
is there a way to change the scale of an alert?
drag the box,
this will change all of the alerts.
if you want only followers to be bigger then you will need 2 alert boxes,
1 with only the follower alerts active and the other with followers unticked
will they scale?
yes
uncheck custom css
you will have to play around with text to get it back in frame
text settings>advanced >margin top | usually is the case after you save it with no custom css
thx
Hmm dunno if I can ask that here but since it's related to SE.Live...
So I was streaming until at some point the audio went crazy and start to echo in my mic. Using Voicemeeter and Virtual Audio Cable, I checked them, reinstalled them, make sure the soft wasn't sending my desktop audio back in my mic... But now, my microphone isn't anymore detected if I selected the voicemeeter output, which is how it worked for months before... I can only use stock microphone option for stream to hear me...
anyone alreayd encounter such behaviour/issue before ?
That’s definitely outside the scope of what we cover. You have your mic on a virtual input?
Sorry mic should be on an output in vm
Outputs = inputs and inputs = outputs in VM
IIRC set your rode mic as default communication device
I have to pick RODE NT Usb which isn't by default at all
and this is how it's set up in voicemeeter
actually my microphone go through voicemeeter and go out as voicemeeter output
Right
at least it should
Set your mic as default communication device in windows
When you added your mic to VM which option did you pick for your mic? IIRC there’s two or three options to choose from and only one or two work
WDM
ok so I set it to communication, swapped back to VM output
seems to work but...
But?
hmmm lemme check with browser sound
It’s a dumb thing to have to do, I know. But apparently that’s how VM captures it
because the main issue was that my desktop sound, be it spotify, youtube, or even games went back to my mic and goes to live
hence echo running
A1 is set to my headset
Add each one to obs as it’s own source in your scene
The default audio device stuff in obs just makes things worse.
Nah, already tested it that way, and it was a freakin pain to control for mute and such on streamdeck
thing is I only have 1 screen 😅
well if you have better way to control my mute/unmute stuff with streamdeck while getting rid of crap in obs, i'm all in 😄
I did this once before a long time ago
Samsung S9+
I may not be able to get you working with a stream deck but I might be able to fix your audio adjustment
In the Google Play store is there an app called TouchOSC?
Look into TouchOSC as VoiceMeeter MIDI control
actually on my SD I have 3 buttons, each muting either discord sound, my mic, or desktop sound
It’s like a portable mixer
there's VM control in Streamdeck iirc
Is there finally?
Ooh
only those though
wtf is that strip/bus thing
ok so with that I can couple it to fully mute my mic be it either discord and stream at once
right now when i was muting myself with deck
right
use a spare mouse button as a discord mute hotkey 😉
usually when streaming i'm alone anyway, or people with me are aware i'm not talking to stream/discord
useful to be bilingual as I use english for streaming and french for chitchat with GF and such
xD
😄
Anyway, with my new job I think i'll redo all this crap and go for XLR at some point
I ran TouchOSC as a virtual audio interface for a year until I got a GoXLR
that will save me so much hassle
thing is, since I have only 1 screen, i use phone as twitch chat feedback 😄
Kappa
Anyway, audio seems to be fixed for now, need to test in discord if it's fine too but seems to work
so if it go crazy, just swap back to my mic for communication
and swap again to full VM output ?
well I ruined my day of streaming because of that 
I just set it up on stream
I mean....why lose time when you can set your title to "breaking my audio, let's see what works!"
was planning to grind the sh*t out of FF XIV while live, echoes came by, decided to fix stuff without make my viewers earbleeding
xD
in fact my echoes was unbearable
usually echoes are caused by your audio being monitored on whatever is being output to stream
I hate working in silence, and since my audio wentback and forth in mic, they ha dlike 3 time same song in sync
it's why setting each device to be its own source in OBS works really well
well, oddly VM had that B1 button pressed for desktop sound
but even more odd, is that desktop sound shouldn't have caught music from spotify since it's different sources in Windows
I think I ran everything to one output in VM, set that as my OBS capture, then monitored everything on the 2nd OBS output to my headset
spotify will play on the default windows sound device
nah, changed it with settings
unless you specifically go into Windows settings and tell it to use a different output
yep
ah gotcha
that's what I did
Hello,in my obs studio the supertheme wont take up the whole screen and it only shows only half of the theme, please help me thanks
@rugged quail To add your overlays to OBS, add a new browser source in your scene. Paste your overlay URL in the browser source properties, set the dimensions to 1920x1080 (unless you changed them on the website), and ☑ “Shutdown source when not visible” https://youtu.be/KDvLynUqXI4
no problem. Good luck with VM!!
^^^^ doesn't work only half of the theme shows
o/
can you screenshot your OBS window @rugged quail ?
select your overlay in the source list and take a screenshot so it shows the source border
but its animated
That doesn't matter
hey guys does anyone have a response for !social I'm trying to use one i found and the formatting is eh
When you added it to OBS, you added it as a 1920 x 1080 browser source?
oh its 1920 I kept on putting 920
working now?
yes thanks
you would create a custom command and you can use global emotes as part of the response
@violet musk working fine for me
is there a way to make it stack instead of beng all tied together like that
like 3 clean lines
and clye how to change the emotes to the tweitter bird etc facebook logo
instead of the hearts
You can’t because they don’t exist on twitch
@violet musk You can use FrankerFaceZ emotes, but some viewers will only see the text instead of the emote.
You’re better off using global twitch emotes as separators
ok
This is true if they are to be used as separators.
i'm just trying to go thru the basics I made affiliate the other night
just trying to get everything up to normal
what would you all say the top 5 commands are i should focusd on
Is there a way to allow the bot from SE to use sub emotes ?
There is no “normal”. It’s up to your imagination on what you want your normal to be.
especially for commands
If you gift the bot a sub
@teal sandal you can either let the bot masquerade as you or gift the bot a sub
how you masquerade it ?
Hamburger menu in activity feed panel >> stream settings >> rename bot
