I can't log out i am not even logged in
it didnt work
@ashen zodiac Click on the "LOGIN" from that menu
on "bot and tipping setup"?
nothing happens aswell
any anti virus, anti malware
blocking software?
restart PC and see if it still happens
Yeah I already tried to restart my pc before coming here
Close OBS
and I just have the regular windows defender maybe thats whats blocking it
On the desktop shortcut you use, right click -> properties -> in tthe "Target" field at the very end after the quote marks, add this: --remote-debugging-port=40404
it should look like this: "C:\Program Files\obs-studio\bin\64bit\obs64.exe" --remote-debugging-port=40404
then open OBS and then open a new tab in your browser
and type localhost:40404
now my game capture doesnt work
@zealous robin For the best OBS support, please join their Official Discord @ discord.gg/obsproject
even though i put the settings to norml
I did
ooh ok you actually copy and pasted
my 2nd line
the example
What if your OBS is installed in E:/ Drive?
don't copy how it should look
just copy the debug option
and place it as instructed
thats what I did
Are you still getting the above error?
yeah
there is a tilde in the front and back
tilder or " ` " is used to mark text in discod like
this
add a space between the " and --

is that not supposed to happen ? xD
i've never seen an empty debug tab before
yikers
well nothing is showing up apparently
and my obs is running with that line you told me to put
you wouldn't be able to open localhost:40404 anyway if it wasn't running
maybe trying to unistall and reinstall would work ?
thats what i was thinking 
For some reason my chat window keeps reverting to light mode when i load up or raid someone.
Thanks @shy mountain I'll try it when I'm home tonight. I've been having to turn on dark mode via non mod each time I load OBS
cannot get destiny 2 to game capture. please help
@light furnace https://www.bungie.net/en/help/article/46101
Hey guys I got a question for obs.live. I'm trying to set it up, with custom bot name. But the 3 checks I need to have before that option is enabled don't work. It's stuck at 'Add streamelements tipping link to your twitch panels'. But there is a tipping link there. Clicking rechecking does nothing. Anyone know what could be the issue please? 🙂
@calm fog Due to a sudden and unforeseen Twitch API change Custom bot name feature through OBS.Live / Ground Control not working temporarily - this means that we cannot get the tipping link from your panels in order to activate the Custom bot name(This includes the tipping settings check).
We are looking into it. No ETA on a fix yet.
ah thx! thought it was me doing something wrong 🙂
sooo i'm 100% sure i clicked 'stop streaming' yesterday, but when i just looked at my page it says i did the normal 2 hour stream + raid after, but also a 12 hour stream
i clicked the obs.live app instead of obs studio + obs.live overlay this time. but do you think it had something to do with obs.live or twitch? (btw the 12 hour stream isn't on my channel, so im really confused).
Hi guys I’m having a problem adding an overlay from streamelements to my studio OBS I have followed terrabucks tutorial the exact way, I still keep getting the black canvas once I try and apply it, i have trying installing and uninstalling the program but no luck... what do I do? 😩
@flat rose I think it has something to do with Twitch tbh, maybe they didnt recognize the stream being stopped, but did in fact already stop
@magic maple 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
have you followed the above stept?
@lilac ocean yea, that's what i thought too, but just checking here it mightve been obs.live (i don't think so either). thnx 🙂
obs.live doesn't let you go live, obs studios does
obs.live is just the extra plugin from StreamElements
yea i used the obs.live app to start up obs, instead of obs studio, but guess problem fixed anyways, since it's by twitch and doesnt mess with any stats
there is no obs.live application 😅
i meant the shortcut for the program, it's weird. guess i wont click that no more x)

Yes that’s the YouTube link I was following but this new version doesn’t say “browser source” it just says “browser” everyone i add the URL and apply it, it just shows the black canvas with the correct sizing
Like that with out actaully bringing up my overlay.
can you please make a screenshot of the whole screen, this doesnt really show anything
Im trying to see if there is any sources above it or anything 😄
can you click open the source of the browser and show me the settings?
also please deliver me a screenshot as I can't see anything with this phone camera resolution
I have no idea how to screenshot it from the laptop, like I’ve copied the tutorial as the bot just sent me perfectly and just keep having that screen, is it because It’s an updated version then the video? Images go on this canvas perfectly just not this
I just want to have a look if the settings are correct
Then the URL above is the link to the overlay perfectly
@magic maple if you hold the Left ALT key down and Press "Prnt Screen" then CTRL V in discord you will paste a screenshot of the current active window 🙂
Settings seem to be alright, imma ask around for you Mitcha
Okay @sudden ingot
Cheers @lilac ocean been trying for hours like installing uninstalling just don’t get it
yhea it's not a program fault, its probably a setting that needs to be turned on/off in the settings, just figuring out which one 😄
installing/uninstalling won't help much
What is your username? @magic maple
Are you on a laptop?
Yes
@magic maple Due to the way laptops are designed, your system must be configured to run OBS on a specific GPU, depending on the type of capture you are trying to do.
For Game Capture and Window Capture (recommended), your system must be configured to run OBS on your laptop’s high performance GPU (default); for Display Capture, your system must be configured to run OBS on your laptop’s power saving GPU (iGPU).
If you are running Windows 10 1903 or newer, use this guide for instructions on how to configure your system: https://github.com/obsproject/obs-studio/wiki/Laptop-GPU-Selection-Windows-10
For instructions on configuring an older version of Windows (you should consider upgrading), use this guide: https://obsproject.com/wiki/Laptop-Troubleshooting
Hoping this can help
It’s a new gaming laptop with the latest windows from last year so I will give one of these ago, I’m hoping it will work also, getting abit frustrating. Appreciate all this help cause I’m lost haha
Are you going to stream from a laptop?
I would highly recommend not doing that
my gaming laptop broke down in 6 months because of streaming
and that was with 2 external and extra internal fans, laptops overheat so fast
It’s all temp until my house is built, It’s through my PS4
ah then its okay!
just warning peeps to not burn down their laptops by gaming + streaming on them haha
Yeah not gaming on PC only need it for this stuff
Yeah haha that’s all sweet cheers
Bloody hard starting to stream like trying to get followers at the start, hoping something like this will help more
That all depends on your networking skills
Well I have only just started in the past week, but yeah that’s also true too
another problem; i didnt change anything about my alerts, but randomly they don't show up in the middle anymore
it looks like it's moved all the way to the right, so only 5% is visible 😦
did you move the source in the OBS canvas?
No luck @shy mountain I changed it to power saving and the other one 👎🏼 seriously don’t know what to do
Something is blocking the overlay in that case
well i did to test if that would fix it, i just removed and added it again, same problem
@flat rose show me the settings for the browser source you are using
Hmm I will chat with you’s tomorrow I’m from aus and have work tomorrow so I’m gonna have to try and look more into it again tomorrow bleh!
well i see the problem
you've set it to 800x600
while the overlay is 1920x1080
I removed the screenshot as it contained your overlay link and not to leak it
oh oops. thanks. hmmm. ill try to set it to 1920x1080 then?
Should fix it yhea
oh ya i see. weird i thought it used to work with 800x600 but guess not. well it's fixed then, thanks 😄
Anyone who knows how to add a blurred scene to Streamelements of a webcam only, like a "Be right back" scene?
You would need to add filters to the webcam source in OBS. But I am not sure what filters you can use.
You can also take a look at this OBS filter package: https://obsproject.com/forum/resources/streamfx-for-obs-studio.578/
Just tried to do a cloud backup and was met with "file to large" i added up all my file sizes and it doesnt seem correct. What can i do?
Ignore that, i found the problem
Hi! I'm currently trying to set up my Tipping Widget in Danish Kroner, however, when I save my widget it displays in USD on stream. I've checked my Tip Settings and there it is displayed in Danish Kroner. What should I do?
hi theer
Heya! Does anyone here have a plan about audio, especially the Reaper plugins? I´ve been trying to make my audio sound nicer, but whenever I put any filters (Compressor, Equalizer etc.) in, the audio starts cutting out and stuttering. It seems to be working fine for other people, any clue why not for me?
Hello, I am having an issue with the media source. I add the correct link into the media source and it just shows a black bot.
I have tried it with my other overlays (which I made with your guys website) and they don't work either.
Please help me!
so you filled this in correctly right?
yes that is correct
now please delete the pic again
because your overlay link is on it 😉
?
the picture above ^^
sharing your link is not adviced 😉
okay let's see if these things will help you show the overlays:
@wary bear Right click on the BrowserSource > Properties > Scroll down a bit > Refresh Cache of current page
okay, let's check the next thing:
@wary bear OBS -> settings -> advanced -> scroll down -> enable/disable hardware accel.
https://i.imgur.com/ggMe9ZE.png
if that option is on, turn it off... or the other way around

does OBS have a discord? I have a question about cellphone capture.
@long dock For the best OBS support, please join their Official Discord @ discord.gg/obsproject
The third on the list is blank in the email stats report, is that normal?
Windows Mail
I opened it in Outlook website on (new) MS Edge and there are no bullets, also the buttons are far more nicer. I believe the Windows Mail app doesn't show the mails fully correctly...
No bullets
huh,.. but overall, Windows Mail app doesn't show everything fully correctly so it showed the bullets.
(new) MS Edge showed everything correctly.
MS Edge is now based on Chromium, so it's like using Chrome but it also has some Edge features
hi im trying to do a slideshow of 20+ pictures and obs only does 8 lol is there a way to unlock that or do i need to make a separate slideshow
you can use our asset rotator widget ❤️
@rugged quail Do you know about the Tip Widget and displaying valuta on stream?
this is what pops up when I click start streaming. It was working last night. My drivers are all up to date.
Its working again after the 5th try.
Using OBSLive, Facebook thought i was hacked, made me reset my password, now i cant get the integration to work. Also wont go live using the integrated settings, have to check the other box to Go Live with Facebook Streamer Dashboard Settings
I cant see my Chat feed in OBSLive and my Activity feed is not updating
Nevermind, figured out how to re-login
So issue OBS keeps crashing when I’m trying to set up anything
how do i get what is currently playing on spotify on the overlay
@novel chasm Spotify has kindly asked us to disable our integration with them, so we complied. This means that the Spotify integration has been removed and the "Now Playing" widget no longer has it as an option.
ok
hi all, trying to setup an overlay with custom font "Press Start 2P" this font is installed on the computer but the overlay loads only Times New Roman in OBS.live
displays in browser fine
it does
did you restart the browser and obs after changing it?
I didn't restart OBS after installing the font, might do the trick
sorry, come from a mac world where fonts are handled differently
streamer is currently live so that'll have to wait, thx for the help :)
Hello Streamelements. i got a invite for the store. i logged in and i cant use the close beta store is this because i changed my twitch name ?
question: i have my headset plugged into my comp (usb) and my to my ps4 (optical) im tryna hear both ps4 and pc at the same time but for some reason its doing a double audio with the elgato and desktop audio??
Hey, My Alerts doesent work...in the overlay editor it works but it doesent show up in OBS or Stream. Its shows the Overlay but none of the Alerts.
I cant find where to add stream labels
@rough raft OBS -> settings -> advanced -> scroll down -> enable/disable hardware accel.
https://i.imgur.com/ggMe9ZE.png
try that please
if it's on, turn it off.. or the other way around
then test the alert again
@dreamy geode https://streamelements.com/dashboard/overlays go there, make an overlay and click on WIDGETS in the blue bar at the top
any luck?
why run optical from ps4 when it's also going through the elgato?
so i can hear ps4 and desktop audio?
It still doesn't work. When I tried it this afternoon, it still worked. It wasn't until I made my own overlay that it stopped working. I also reinstalled OBS new
can any one who know about streaming help me
i did the alerts but who am i supose to know if the work because it doesnt seem to work
i made the alerts on stream elements and want to transfer them to stream labs obs does any one know how
@rough raft Right click on the BrowserSource > Properties > Scroll down a bit > Refresh Cache of current page
@orchid snow We're not able to troubleshoot issues with using our overlays in StreamLabs OBS (SLOBS) as we don't have the tools to support their software. We recommend using OBS Studio or OBS Studio with our plugin OBS.Live.
why @wary dew ? 
Still doesent work, sry
no problem, we are just trying the easy things first 😛
can you delete the source and add it again
yes i did
i need to go myself because it's already past midnight and have to get up early again. but maybe @wise silo can help you out?
Wots the issue
Thank you @wary dew for your help. @wise silo My Problem is that my Alerts dont show in OBS or Stream. In the Overlay Editor it does.
Did you add them to your OBS?
Yes with a Browser Souce like always. When I tried it this afternoon, it still worked. It wasn't until I made my own overlay then it stopped working.
When you test do they show up on OBS?
To test/emulate alerts, hover over the blue bell at the bottom of the overlay editor. From here you can select the type of event and the amount to test.
They show up in Chrome but not in OBS.
@rough raft 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.
Are your alerts paused?
nop
Create a new overlay, add the Alerts widget, add it to OBS then test that.
Still not, sry ... i added a Total Sub Counter for testing it that shows up...but not the Alert
im so fucking stupid omg....thank you
If I have OBS LIVE do I still need to launch ground control for custom bot username?
nop
Soo my obslive is connected but it still shows "stream elements" as the bot name.
nvm I was able to fix it after reinstalling.
Hello, so i made a overlay in the stream elements website with media request in it, but when im in obs live and hit show on stream it plays twice
Double Audio
But its fine until i hit show in stream
how do i change the game and title when im streaming?
twitch dashboard
OBS.live dashboard
commands
Hello everyone. My alerts have stop showing on my stream all of the sudden. It plays the audio on the stream but doesn't show my image. I think it's a problem with streamelements because when I hit launch, there is no image in the new URL, but it does show the image in the preview.
Preview with image
Try disable hardware acceleration
This is what I see when I hit Launch. I'm used to see the image here.
Yes
Even if I use a premade template, everything is blank. Even if I start from scratch on a new one. Nothing. So strange
It worked fine for months, then all of the sudden, STOPPED. I did get a new CPU and motherboard, so maybe that's it.
I have done that. I have uninstalled OBS and reinstalled. I don't know. Thanks for trying though.
I will check it on my device
@scarlet jay Follow these steps to grant managers/moderators access to your dashboard:
- Click on your Channel Name at the top of the dashboard and select Settings
- Create a new invite at one of three access levels (Bot Supervisor, Editor, Full Control)
- Send this invite to a mod/manager to give them access to your dashboard. The link is one-time-use and expires after 72 hours if not accepted
Video tutorial: https://youtu.be/zl_h-ttZDF0
so silly question, how do I set up custom bot name from obs live?
@vernal tendon Custom bot name requirements
- StreamElements bot modded and in chat
- Active overlay with alerts
- StreamElements tipping page in the panels below the stream (!panels)
- OBS.Live or Ground Control open
- Create a twitch account for the name you want to use or run the bot under your own name
- Custom bot name doesn't work on Mac
in obs live I should log in with my bot name instead of my main account?
Working... Thank you 🥰

Evening yall. So the issue I am having with OBS Live is that I stream on Mixer and FTL is not working. I go into Settings and find under the Streaming tab that the service is not set to Mixer - FTL. I changed it, connected my Mixer account, and Applied the settings. The delay went down significantly, however my FTL is still off and it is a greyed out option on the channel page. Anyone have some advice to figure out the issue or at least get me heading in the right direction?
@fiery moss If your Mixer stream has "Low Latency" greyed out in the player while using OBS.Live, do the following:
- Stop your stream
- Go to your stream settings in OBS and return them to your previous settings, where your service is listed as "Mixer.com - FTL"
- In "live video settings" for OBS.Live on the left-hand side (in the chat window) change the setting on top of the window to "Go Live with Mixer Broadcast Dashboard settings" and press "Go Live!" from there
@shy mountain @lilac ocean hey guys did you’s end up working out why my overlay won’t come up when I apply it to the browser source? 😩
@magic maple 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.
lets see if the log file has something to say
other than that - its most likely beign blocked
somehow
somewhere
somewhat
Hmm so lost with it dude
Yes I reinstalled OBS studio like 10 times last night lol
I thought I did have that installed hmm let me see
no obs-streamelemenets.dll
Is it www.obs.live?
OBS.Live is a Plugin for OBS created by StreamElements. You can download OBS.Live here: https://streamelements.com/obslive
Please make sure you have the latest version of OBS installed, Current Version: 24.0.3. You can install OBS here: https://obsproject.com/
Okay I have now downloaded OBS live
Still not coming up once I late URL with correct sizing the. Apply just comes up with the red border but no overlay, really has me stumped
I'm running out of ideas
the only thing left i can think of is to go to settings -> advanced -> scroll down
disable hardware acceleration
I'm having this same issue. Do you see it when you launch from streamelements and try and see it from a new tab? I don't see it there either, but I do get sound.
Fyi I'm just trying to get my alerts working. Everything else is local.
Yeah I can see it all on stream elements once o have edited it but just get that black canvas screen still once I applied it to the browser, nah @shy mountain no luck dunno man this sucks...
I really don't know
clean_shot was actually referring if you open the overlay in a browser tab
not the editor
@scarlet jay 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
you can try this
Yeah I launch it in a browser tab and have it edited there to how I want but that’s only place I can see it
Whats your current time?
5:49pm
Okay dude
@shy mountain okay dude how we doing this
No haven’t done that
then it was someone else who had issues with the debugger from OBS
Ok, so right click your OBS shortcut -> properties and at the end of the target field, after the quotes, add this: --remote-debugging-port=40404
I’m in properties where is this target field under general?
My bad was on the wrong shortcut
So clear that target field and add what you wrote?
all good doing it
Then apply?
@shy mountain sorry dude then apply then click okay?
No I didn’t clear it I put next to it
Yeah have done that
ok, so apply and open/restart OBS
Okay then try add overlay again?
now open your browser and in a new tab type in "localhost:40404"
and screenshot me what you see
Ok so add the overlay
and refrsh the tab
a new option should show up
and also
!screenshot
Add the overlay to this same tab or to OBS
to obs
so click onthe browser source
Done that just a white screen now
show me what you see, but also please don't use your phone for screenshots
I haven’t discord on laptop just yet that’s why taken on this
press F12
and you should see a console pop up
on the top of it, there should be "elements" "console" "network" and other stuff
click on "console"
and screenshot me that
whatt browser is that?
Just internet explorer ?
can you show me the properties of the browser source in OBS?
@magic maple 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
Oh no I know that
well
I thought you wanted original
let me know when you place an overlay there
and then show me the console again
or rather again the entire browser what you see and the console
Lets not leak the overlay link 
Mitcha, it would really help if you could provide us with screenshots and not mobile pictures, its very vague to see what the errors are
Alright let me try and get discord going on laptop and go from there
okay got it going on laptop
btw have you tried turning your AntiVirus off and trying again? 🤔
maybe a weird question, but seems like something is getting blocked right?
hmm i can try it
gimme a sec
anti virus is not on
cant seem to get the OBS source back onto browser
wdym?
its the first link
okay yes its not showing my overlay in this tab
want a screenshot?
its now* showing me
this doesn't make any sense
yeah dude im stumped
does that screengrab above have the overlay link should that get deleted??
heck , it did
hm
you think nothing can be done then?
@shy mountain Think thats it then? so stressful taking so many hours just to try apply this 👎
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
right?
dont think tried that?
y
okay so i have 2 folders, do i completely delete them both?
@magic maple If you are not seeing the OBS Twitch integrations and have OBS.Live installed, please follow these steps:

- exit OBS (make sure OBS is not running)
- delete %appdata%\obs-studio\plugin_config\obs-browser\obs_profile_cookies
- start OBS.Live
- Settings -> Stream -> disconnect -> connect
i have no idea what is causing this
So frustrating
suppose i will just leave it for now, and just keep watch and see if anyone can find a fix.
Appreciate the help
would contacting OBS directly help this situation?
maybe, but they might send you back here
but if they say its obs.live causing this, you can safely say that this is happening with and without obs.live
and that the debugging console i showed you shows the overlay but preview doesn't
okay i will see how i go
i will be in touch
See now this is what I don’t get I just went on my partners computer and downloaded it all and did everything as you should and it works on there, but not the gaming laptop.. so stupid
yhea its a very weird occurence
the wierdest part is, the localhost:40404 thing - it basically mirrors what you should see on the OBS preview
it loaded there but not OBS
Yeah guys i don’t get it
With my profession being IT, I think it's maybe a setting on the laptop, maybe with the integrated graphics or something, but it's a very rare occurence, can say this is my first time seeing this
Yeah I’d say would be weird for you with that being your job and seeing this.
Hey, anyone have an idea how to fix this?
@rough vapor 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
@magic maple I dare suggest something else if you haven't contacted the OBS guys at their discord yet.
@magic maple Checked with devs of obs.live just in case, the issue might be environment related - they suggest to reinstall your GPU drivers for now
i would suggest to use DDU for that
Ok @shy mountain I’ve just left home but will look into that soon cheers
👍
meu obs live nn nofifica as menssagens e nenhum feed esta funcionando
alguem sabe oq fazer??
I'm sorry, but this is an English only help channel. If you want to you can ask in #🇵🇹︱português , but use English here, please.
hey sorry to ask this but how do i log out off of mixer and in to twitch as i am move back to twitch
@charred lava Streamelements on top of OBS -> Logout -> login
yes i find it bot thanks
got some issues with the stream store (loyalty point one), people in chat couldn't do !redeem <item name> to activate it, they had to go to the website and do it 🤔
Can anyone help me change alert audio
@quasi snow sfx
wow that's a first, if you ticked on item that it can be redeemed on chat, I had that with codes
ye it got all that ticked
@quasi snow
Didn't work at all typing !redeem burn or anything like that
Same thing for all 3 SFX that I have there
did you try do shortcuts for them?
shortcuts?
- Get the item name/command from the 2nd creation page
- Go to commands page here: https://streamelements.com/dashboard/bot/commands/custom
- Add command with desired name and have response for command as: ${redeem item_name_here}
so for example then the response command would be ${redeem burn} if burn was the item name correct?
yes
so ppl can do !burn
also I think you don't have the redeem command enabled
https://streamelements.com/dashboard/bot-commands/default-commands search for redeem and activate it plz
it was
worked for me now but you can still make the shortcuts, they are useful 🙂
you're welcome 😄

❤️
all working!!

@rugged quail What widgets are you referring to? Have you added these widgets to your overlay and added this with the correct dimensions to your OBS?
@odd kraken indeed but it doesnt even show my most recent follower on the site
What platform?
Streamelements + Obslive
Is the event in your activity feed?
What widgets are you referring to?
Twitch
how do i make a media request source in obs live like in the video. Option never came up. what are the properties?
You can create an overlay and add the MediaRequest widget to it and add this overlay to your OBS Studio.
Make the widget bigger.
What is the message of the widget on he left side?
Latest follower
Then it only displays that. Change it to: Latest Follower: {name}
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ICyqSN3rO18 at 1.45 the video shows along with the stream element person telling you that it will prompt you. this never happened along with the overlay not appearing. What is the way to get this source in the source area.
StreamElements OBS.Live add-on for OBS studio, making stream management easy.
Direct download: http://p.strms.net/obslivemryt / Learn more: http://p.strms.net/obsliveytlm
With OBS.Live Media Request integration you can increase your revenue and viewer engagement by letting ...
Did that didnt change it at all
When you go to data at the top, is there an entry for latest follower?
@forest smelt Follow the steps I described above to create your own media request overlay.
@odd kraken
Screenshot the whole editor window with the editor being open and the widget selected please.
ok i made a new overlay called it media request. copied that code into my media source in obs and that did not fix it.
Have you added the MediaRequest widget to that overlay?
yes
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
Have you made sure it has the correct dimensions?
yes it is
what do you do when it says ur video driver needs to be up to date
Google that. Normally the video card manufacturers have a download page for drivers.
i think it cost money did yours?
No, then you are on a wrong page.
@forest smelt Also make sure you do not use the StreamElements default video to test, cause that one will not work with showing on stream.
i used the media source filter. I placed the overlay code in that input box. and still no audio is being controled in that source box. the audio is dead.
If not defined otherwise, the audio will be added to your desktop audio.
@quasi snow hey i want to change the audio for my alerts and im stupid
What is the problem you are having?
i can´t change the size of the docks while in the ui, does someone know how to fix the problem
@finite kiln you can use #dreamteam channel
@odd kraken after restarting Obs live the data just dispears
Do you still see them in the overaly editor?
Screenshot?
Have you reset the labels?
No
Asking internally on this.
Thanks
Your data are reset for no visible reason. I am sorry as I cannot bring them back up. We are looking into this.
I recommend to enter the latest data manually, as we do not get past events from twitch and the data will fill again with your next events.
Can someone please assist? I'm still dealing with this bitrate dropping to 0 issue during stream. i just want to find out if it is a Twitch server-side issue or OBS issue? My Twitch Inspector is showing stability in Bandwidth Test Mode but everything just plummets during live stream recently. It wasn't doing this at all till about a week ago.
are you letting obs select the server for you or are you selecting the best server possible for your streams?
@dim drum Auto (recommended)
I could do manual but the Twitch Test app has not been giving accurate Quality ratings as of late
I'm in Central time zone so Central and East coast servers are always best given my location
Is it possible to cancel account close pending or check if it's still pending?
@marble robin Do you mean that you have requested for your account to be deleted and you want to stop that deletion request?
Yeah, if possible, I feel like I'll lose my donation link spot, so I don't want to risk it.
Is this for the YouTube account you have linked to your Discord?
No, twitch.
Alright, same username though?
yes
@marble robin Unfortunately it's been deleted already, but this means you can set it back up
Oh wow it just got deleted. I was on the website and now refreshed it and now it says I need to login again .-.
I guess? How can I back it up? Or can you check if a donation link is avaialble?
If you log back in with your Twitch you will have the same donation link, it uses your username
No problem 👍
How do I get access to the clothing merch? I've tried but all it says is I'll get a email later which has yet to happen
Are you using Chrome?
Hopefully this is the right channel. My Custom Bot disappeared from my ground control, which I noticed after my Custom Bot stopped working in the last few streams. I've re-downloaded Ground Control but it still doesn't work. It was working fine for 4 months, just stopped the last couple weeks. Thoughts?
Yeah GC stop working with the custom bot name, for the changes on Twitch API, i dunno any updates about that yet
you are using OBS.Live?
bummer, yes I use OBS.Live
@rapid hedge Try again now please
thanks, that was easy

now i know the update 🙂
@sinful flint yes. Why?
I was asking because it hasn't been working well in other browsers, but Chrome should be fine providing that you have access and you're using your Twitch account on our website
yo guys
im trying to stream fivem
but the source aint picking it up for some reason
i mean , i see the fivem option , its just it shows a black screen
is there a way to add scene transitions
@limber lotus For the best OBS support, please join their Official Discord @ discord.gg/obsproject
@sacred seal
how do you apply them to the scenes
@sacred seal that drop down Nethyr screenshot is where you apply. OR, you can right click a scene and set an override transition.
but the one chosen in the drop down will be default for every scene switch
i need help my alerts are only half showing when i install pre made alerts
@eternal fjord 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
i dont know if im in the right section but im having ahard time with audio when setting up a 2 pc stream, just cant get the gaming pcs sound onto the obs on my streaming pc?
@chrome nebula For the best OBS support, please join their Official Discord @ discord.gg/obsproject
thanks
Browser Source overlays and alerts don't appear on my stream anymore after I got a new pc
@rocky swift have you tested on the editor?
Yeah everything works online when I simulate tests
this box is checked?
yeah but it doesn't appear in OBS Live when I simulate them
okay, but we check the easy things first 😉
@rocky swift Right click on the BrowserSource > Properties > Scroll down a bit > Refresh Cache of current page
why that i made the alerts dif size now all my backrounds changed size now everything is way to big jesus
Didn't do anything, sorry support bot
@rocky swift OBS -> settings -> advanced -> scroll down -> enable/disable hardware accel.
https://i.imgur.com/ggMe9ZE.png
if it's on, turn it off or the other way around
Already have tried with it on and off but I'll try again
i change the size in the properties of my alerts now all my sources are way to big it ruined all my scenes
i adjusted my alerts size in the poperties menu now all my pics are huge
Yeah neither settings worked
man starting to think switing to elements from slobs was a mistake OOF
@rocky swift base canvas res and overlay res both 1920x1080?
@eternal fjord it's not a mistake
it takes some time to master the overlay editor
I would've thought so
can you delete and add the source again? just to make sure that is set up all correct
okay 😄
all of my dang scenes were fine i tried to add simple premade alert system on your theme page and in the alert properties i only changed the dang 600 width and or 800 lenth to 1980 t0 1080 and it resized all my images in my scenes and ruined them all now all my sources in all scenes are now huge
yeah nothing still
@eternal fjord That doesn't really make any sense. Can you screenshot the behavior?
yup now none of my original pics fit now in the preview
@rocky swift there is no other source above the one with the overlays in OBS?
I have a game capture source working but any browser source doesn't appear
It's all layered correctly
haha all good man
let me ask around if any other support members know an answer
ty 🙂
Either too big or small now
when originally it fit perfect and i never change the size of nothing but the alert size in the main menu after you try load em
@rocky swift are you using OBS.Live?
when you up load the dang premade alerts you add the broweser source it was only showing half the alert at 800 x 600 so i changed width and size to 1920 x 1080 alert i could then see and adjust size from there but then it changed all my secenes images sizes too
Yeah
ok
I can try with normal OBS if you want?
The width amd hright of this alert soyrce
When i t was on 800 to 600 half alert shows
I put it back this is what i get
@rocky swift no it's fine, just wanted to make sure you weren't on SLOBS
Your width and height in the browser source properties are likely incorrect.
man i just said that when i changed it it made all my images larger in all scenessnensensnenss
lmfao
it ruined all my scenes when i made the width and height to 1080 x 1920 lol
Show me where you changed that.
i did above in the damn properties lomfao
Which overlay in your account is this?
Please tell me the name of the overlay in your account that you're using for your alerts.
i changed it and all my scenes got bigger
energy flow animated alerts
in the premade
That overlay is set to be 1920x1080. Are you sure you're looking at the correct properties?
Just wanna help 😛
nice picture @honest echo 
and then i made it bigger to 1080 1920 then the full alert appeared and was adjustable but then it made every image text anything i had and made it all huge
i know right.. im first class thief
when i uploaded your premade alert this was what is popping up when i test it
and adjusting the size doesnt make the other half come back
i had to when your uploading the dang alert its set at 800 x 600
literally ruined all my scenes ive had set up
Hey I just kept restarting my OBS and removing and re-adding my alerts browser source and it appears but my Sub/Follow goals aren't yet so I'll try with them
now none of my original photos will fit the screen now
When set correctly, it won't cut off. Start with deleting the browser source and remaking it, and check your settings in Settings>Video.
I had no problem fitting this image befor now its to small
What image is that? I don't see it in your overlays.
Why did it change my in aop settings wth lol
App
I had to go to settings and reset it to 1920 so that fixed idk trying the alert again i guess but when i changed the propertie size of my alert it changed my whole resolution
Changing a browser source's properties can't change your Video settings.
Well it did all i did was change the width and length of that premade alert and my whole resolution changed
And again dont work
It literally cannot. They're not tied whatsoever.
I simply added the source as browser source and i get this
All i did was copy the browser alert link add it to my scene and i get this
You need to set the browser source properties to 1920x1080.
Leaving it at 800x600 will cut it off.
The red box here is 800x600. Does that cut look familiar?
also your base resolution is not 1920 x 1080 if your image above is correct and you set the overlay to 1920
Yes
OBS Live is so finicky haha I got it fixed after uninstalling and reinstalling stuff cheers @wary dew
I changed it i didnt do it that time but i swear it made my resolution in settings change cause i didnt go in and change it to 800 or whatever it was on in my video settings
Maybe a bug but swear i didnt change ny video resolution at all just added source and all scenes over sized idk preciate the help tho
I don't know exactly where this question goes for trouble shooting. None of my PC games lag at all, let alone every 5 seconds. But apex legends does. I don't know what settings to tweak first, in which order. Please help?
anyone know why my alert box is showing up fine on the website but when i try to test them in obs, there is no visual for them but the audio is still there?
@tender epoch 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
@violet spoke For the best OBS support, please join their Official Discord @ discord.gg/obsproject
why when you adjust some things in the overlay it eith goes offline with the layout or goes off screen like the social icons at the bottom of some overlays
Hey, I have my this problem where on this screen it always takes away my top gifters and I have to reload my overlays. Any idea how to fix this?
I have tried resetting it and changing which layer it is one too
Was having issues with OBS so I'm uninstalling/reinstalling. I uninstalled OBS without any issue but OBS.Live won't complete the uninstall. Any suggestions?
@urban venture Uninstall OBS.Live first, then OBS Studio.
@jaunty elk This is a known issue we are currently investigating.
That worked, ty @ Nethyr
@tulip hamlet ok cool thank you. One last thing. I stream in 1920x1080 and on twitch it only allows people to view it at that and not change the res.. Most get black screens. Any idea what to do?
@jaunty elk Become a Partner, basically. Encoding options are always there for partner and as resources allow for all others, with priority given to affiliates.
Otherwise, stream in 720p.
hey for donation and bit goals how do u make them start at 0??
@fleet plume To reset goals:
- from the overlay editor -> data on top -> goal tab -> reset progress of desired goal
- from the dashboard -> activity feed on the left -> widget data on the right -> goals tab -> reset progress of desired goal
Note: Goal widgets(progress) only counts up and doesn't go down automatically, if you loose followers/subs
Hey all I am having some trouble linking my facebook stream back to my OBS.live after the update. It only gives me the option to link my twitch?
Screenshot?
@drifting quest Streamelements on top of OBS -> Logout -> login

It no longer displays under any settings
Hey Albi, the ability has not been removed, however there are some problems with it at the moment
are you trying to set the custom bot name via obs.live or ground control?
What KeiZar said
where do you go for that?
You can find where and how to over here: https://discordapp.com/channels/141203863863558144/494513233416421386/561516184718278676
KeiZar!! 🤣


Thanks champs

How do you make it so that there Will be a pop-up of when someone subs?
You will have to add a alert box to your overlay
IDK how to add am alert box?
@rugged quail 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.

We have a YouTube channel that explains a lot of this stuff, but I will redirect you either way!
Over at https://streamelements.com/dashboard/overlays , you can edit the overlay you use by clicking on the little pencil
Then top right of the editor you'll have to click on 'WIDGETS' and choose the alert box
hi, i'm having issue with MediaRequest. If i choose to show on stream, the video mute and not playing sound on desktop audio. If i turn off show on stream, it play the sound but the overlay does not have video. any way to fix this ?
Can you show me a screenshot of the audio mixer when Media Request is shown on stream?
I'm going to ask around for you!
if I unmute the overlay part of the audio mixer, the viewer can probably hear the sound but i cannot hear
You do have the Media Request widget in your overlay correct?
yes, i have it
You will have to turn on audio monitoring on the overlay audio source as well
monitoring on allows you to hear the audio as well
i got double audio if i do this
wdym double audio?
with monitoring off you don't hear it, but with monitoring on you hear double audio?
got 1 from the desktop audio, 1 from the overlay
with monitor on
it's out of sync a bit so the sound is weird
So with MediaRequest
with overlay mute, only desktop audio unmute
if i choose to show on stream, it play video on stream but i dont hear the sound on desktop audio
if i choose to not show on stream, i can hear the sound from desktop audio but no video on overlay
this is with overlay audio monitoring off
i want to be able to hear the sound from desktop audio and show video on the overlay
what happen if i dont have that option ?
the browser source defaults to the desktop audio
and this happens
thanks
but it got double audio now ..
seems like two sources trying to play the same thing
but out of sync for few ms
Did you make a separate overlay that holds the MR widget?
yes
and did you remove the MR widget from any other overlays?
yes, i only have 1 overlay with the MR
So the MR widget is in a standalone overlay added as a browser source, without the "control audio" option.
The otther overlay with your alerts widget is with the "control audio" option.
And you have them both added to 1 scene, correct?
yes
and when you click "show on stream" - the video shows up and you hear double audio?
looks like it's working now .. but with the "control audio via OBS" on for the overlay and mute in the mixer
this MR is pretty buggy in my experience with the state of audio
thanks for the help though !
Anyone knows to do a Widget with a rotation goals? 5sec SUB GOAL, change to CHEER GOAL 5sec, and finally, Change to FollowGoal
did you check #widget-share ?
there's one from cocci that is quite configurable but I'm not sure if it has goals
yes it has goals
hi i was wondering if any one could help? I cant seem to load my overlays to my browser source it does not seem to stick to the source, maybe missing something really stupid thanks
@cerulean charm 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
have you followed all above steps?
let me check thanks
No worries, let me know if that helped
done everything by the video but it doesn't load after i put the link in and change settings 1920 and 1080 then click ok it doesn't load?
OBS -> settings -> advanced -> scroll down -> enable hardware accel.
ok ill try that thanks
un ticked it will restart and try that
thank you so much!!!!!!!! it worked
Great to hear 😄
Thanks guys, last question, how to import Custom Widget to my Overlay?
is it possible to import my overlays and transitions fron streamlabs obs?
@latent harness when you click it, it will make an overlay here https://streamelements.com/dashboard/overlays edit it, then inside you can copy the widget to your overlay using the duplicate option
@quasi snow Thanks!
@vapid mural https://support.streamelements.com/hc/en-us/articles/115000405371-Import-other-platforms-into-StreamElements
- under the StreamElements menu, you can import your overlays through the obs.live plugin
Is there a way to make a sub goal hide, unless it's within a certain amount of time from a subscription being made.
I'd like a goal on my stream but don't want it there all the time, either sliding in/out on a timer or around recent events.
@plain swan thats how i can import scenes only. is there a way to get transitions as well?
transitions between different scenes?
yes
hmmm not sure I've never run into that before
We cannot import transitions. You would need to upload the videos for the transitions as Stinger transiton effect to your OBS studio.
Or choose one effect from the given.
hallo
hey mate need a hand?
hello
Hey there Lions, need any help? 😄
oh all i can get lol
Just be sure to ask away and there will be someone with you shortly!
i am trying to use obs live to stream to twitch. although i use my stream key it keeps giving the error that i could nto connect cause the key is wrong or it can not connect to the server. though the chat box pops up and works....
Have you enabled 2-factor authentication on your Twitch account?
was just wondering if someone could point me in the diretion of where i went wrong setting it up.
yes i have i believe
also theres no need to use stream keys, just connect your twitch account
OBS Settings >> Stream >> disconnect account/remove stream key >> connect to Twitch
could not access the specified channel or stream key please double check your stream key if it is correct, there may be a problem connecting to the server. same error as before
ok i am very new to this. you mean to sign into my twitch account?
yes
Then I want you to follow the instructions in this help article to make sure you've configured your account for streaming: https://help.twitch.tv/s/article/two-factor-authentication-with-authy
ok i did have 2FA enabled. so if i set up this authy app it will help with the issue?
If you have 2FA enabled, then you should already be running the Authy app
well it is enabled in twitch. from the twitch studo app. i was using before i installed OBS live. but i didn't like it's functionality.
As long as you have 2FA enabled, you should be able to authenticate to your Twitch account inside the OBS Settings >> Stream and you should be able to stream
Hi, can someone help me with an overlay issue? I've made it through the editor, and in there, everything is in the right place, but when I import it to OBS.live, the whole overlay shifts lower to the right, making it really messy.
@fierce stag 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
and would i need to use authentication check box in the OBS settings>>stream ?
screenshot it
Screenshot your OBS Settings > Stream window
@fierce stag Can you screenshot the whole obs window?
i think he was talking to me lol.
@kindred fox Wow, it fixed it, thank you! 🙂
eyyyy
nope
this is what i get.
and when i go back to check the obs settings>>stream it is back at the default i showed above.
could this be an error caused because i was using another streaming app to multi stream to twitch and facebook at the same time ?
i could use that app i guess, though i much prefer the streamelements look and it would be prefect for my needs if it had an in-game overlay for chat. as i play and stream on one monitor.
by the way thank you for at least attempting to help 🙂
You shouldn't have to utilize a different app, and that shouldn't cause any issues.
it was one i used before a friend recommended obs live.
My recommendation for monitoring chat would be to watch your stream on your phone. I watch mine on my phone so I can also monitor quality while watching chat
ahh i had not thought of that. that is do able, but i'd have to get live working first lol.
this is the part i find odd
this is my whole window, with the chat live. but not streaming...
Try disconnecting your account in the stream tab and then connect again.
i can see the chat live if i enter it on this window.. but it still won't go live.
hello
streamelements > logout
then log back in
What exactly is the issue?
my display capture is blank and not detecting monitor
Due to the way laptops are designed, your system must be configured to run OBS on a specific GPU, depending on the type of capture you are trying to do.
For Game Capture and Window Capture (recommended), your system must be configured to run OBS on your laptop’s high performance GPU (default); for Display Capture, your system must be configured to run OBS on your laptop’s power saving GPU (iGPU).
If you are running Windows 10 1903 or newer, use this guide for instructions on how to configure your system: https://github.com/obsproject/obs-studio/wiki/Laptop-GPU-Selection-Windows-10
For instructions on configuring an older version of Windows (you should consider upgrading), use this guide: https://obsproject.com/wiki/Laptop-Troubleshooting
Laptops are special when it comes to capturing things. Depending on what "version" of windows you're on you need to follow the specific one for it.
Follow the first link from that.
logged out and back in. no change
if you go to the profile drop down, do you see anything other than the default "untitled"
ok after getting that error again i checked the obs settings and they were back to the default i pictured above. i changed them to twitch again and clicked apply and ok and tried to stream again. this time it did start to twitch. can i multi stream with obs live to facebook as well ?
not with just obs, you need to use something like restream
well at least i got it running 🙂 , than you for your assistance .
hey guy i hope this is not just me but im getting frames missed due to render lag and my fps dropping to half for no reason. i have a streaming pc and its using an i5 6500 and a 980 rtx gpu. it was all working fine a little while ago and i thought that the reason it was not working was because of my hard drive. i now have everything on an ssd and im still having the problem. i have updated everything and have checked the levels in task manager but nothing is bottle necking. i have tried it on just one scene with a video playing no browsers and still getting the drops 😦 any help would be great 🙂
did you tick shutdown source when not visible on all sources @bleak remnant ?
the option i have is to close file when inactive and yep its ticked
but its not just on the video
its on all my scenes
anyway, make sure on all browser sources that is ticked
yep they do 🙂
then go to obs options > advanced > scroll down to hardware acceleration, turn it on/off
k ill try that now in a sec, obs just crashed and i was only getting 4 fps but i think i have turned off the hardward acc as i was getting the bug where no window capture would work for chrome
ahh perhaps, so u did that trick already
yea i think i did 😦
@bleak remnant 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.
that might help us
k two seconds im on my gaming rig with discord lulz who ever sid 2 pc was the way to go 😦
well with the elgato 4k hd60 pro its not too bad
@bleak remnant i had laggy stream until i limit the frame rate of my games ..
I've heard, just put that on a rig would relief it from the workload, no need for a 2nd pc
maybe cheking the frame rate of your monitors (asumming you have 2)
@honest echo its on a second pc so the fps of my games shouldnt matter
sorry im trying to get the log but obs keeps crashing, it stopped dropping the renderlag frames but then crash L(
crashing ain't normal hehe
my fps is set on the elgato to 144 but again its not just on one scene its all of them where the elgato is on it or not
This is going to seem stupid, but create a new Scene collection by clicking on Scene Collections >> New and start adding sources until it crashes. Whichever source you added last is why it blows up
assuming you can get it to launch long enough to create a new scene collection of course
https://obsproject.com/analyzer/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fobsproject.com%2Flogs%2FRtCsFgViCnJbcYe- your log with some info that might help
ill be honest i clicked the hardward accl back on saved shut down then went back in and turned it off again and i have not dropped a frame since and im flicking though all my scenes now
you're welcome but what Orsuna said above is the best way to triage it, if you (hopefully not) ever get it again
hey do any one else have problems with the streamelements overlays? My OBS doesn't show them in the scenes
how so? @devout obsidian can you share a screenshoot?
@honest echo The scene is black, it should show a WoW picture. Don't know if you need a screenshot of a blackscreen xD
does the picture show up in the overlay editor?
make sure theres no layers covering it
@plain swan it show up in the editor but not on obs
@plain swan the scene is my starting scene so there is no other source in it
huh thats weird
