rugged quail
#

I'm having a problem when i set up a display source it doesn't work on my 1st monitor but it works on my 2nd one any ideas why???

plain swan
#

please dont post your issue twice in two different channels

rugged quail
#

Anyone know how to record footage while streaming but have the gameplay, commentary and alert box only for the recording? I tried downloading a plug in but it doesn't show up.

plain swan
#

@rugged quail is it your primary or secondary display that wont work

rugged quail
#

@plain swan primary one isn't working

plain swan
#

are you on laptop or desktop

rugged quail
#

desktop

steel mural
plain swan
#

hmmmm

#

^ do that first

#

I hope that it hasn't taken this long to get your displays plugged into your GPU

#

but just in case

short badge
#

hello

#

I just installed obs live. Could someone please link a playlist of any useful setup videos?

steel bladeBOT
rugged quail
#

ok so my mail monitor was plugged into the top i just plugged it into the bottom now its not even showing up and my screen keeps going black the back on??

#

main**^

plain swan
#

?

#

oh right main monitor

#

well

#

first of all, congratulations are in order

#

you're now using your discrete GPU instead of your integrated graphics card

#

now update your graphics drivers and restart your computer

rugged quail
#

this is my pc so idk how too lol

plain swan
#

well I sure hope it's your PC and not a stranger's

#

you don't know how to update your drivers and restart your PC?

rugged quail
#

i know how to restart my pc yes but the drivers lol idk how. its mine ive been xbox my whole life all my friends upgraded so i did as well

#

ill restart my pc now

plain swan
#

no

#

theres no need to restart your pc now

#

do you know what GPU you have?

#

how long have you had your PC

rugged quail
#

got delivered yesterday. i already restarted it and its working now

plain swan
#

ah touche

rugged quail
#

thanks a bunch

plain swan
#

well try your display sources now first

rugged quail
#

yes thats what i mean the main monitor display is all good now its showing on obs

plain swan
#

there you go congrats

#

thank god we got this sorted sooner rather than later

rugged quail
#

haha yep thats true

#

thanks again

plain swan
#

no worries, welcome to the PC master race

rugged quail
#

ok so every minute or so it goes black again lol any idea why??

steel mural
#

In OBS?

rugged quail
#

no the monitor

#

its been happening since i put the cable in the bottom

#

when it was up top it didnt happen

steel mural
#

It's hard to fix a behavior like this remotely but I'll try my best.
Is everything plugged in correctly? Because having both monitors plugged into the bottom ports is definitely right. (Plugging it in the ones above gives you a big performance hit in games and OBS.)
Do you get a sound or pop up from Windows when the display disconnects?

rugged quail
#

yh everything is in correctly and no its like the monitor gets switched off

steel mural
#

hm. There's really not much we can do here. You can plug your monitor back to the other ports for a temporary fix, but I highly recommend you to get a friend who knows some stuff about PCs or a technician to take a look at it because of the reasons mentioned above. All you get is problems in OBS when having multiple monitors plugged into different GPUs.

rugged quail
#

ok thanks for the help

keen pecan
#

My PC Crashes all the time... 4% utilization of my processor and 60% of my vid card and i have a new ssd and new snd card... appears to happen the more i play music.... is this a know issue????

steel bladeBOT
#

@keen pecan 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.

keen pecan
#

i used to be able to see the crash reports but not any more... do u want me to past the log here?

#

#

ok

gray timber
#

Ok babes so Mic on voice detection didn't work half of the time, was at -32 / -26
what should I put that actually works, like i just moved the sliders around til it was something silly like -7 / -33 but idk what either of them 2 mean

#

like this one now that i randomly tried also picks up my headphone sound Distaste

#

that's noise gate filter btw cause I have no idea what other filters would just let me have normal mic talk without all lower volume cutting out (my mic settings on the thing itselff are up already)

steel mural
#

Close has to be lower than open

#

If the "Close" value is higher, it effectively closes the mic before it even opens.

tawdry shell
#

yo im not even running a game and my obs wont go above 100 bit rate

#

when switchedd to lossless i get close to 500 but nothing more

#

help plz

steel bladeBOT
gray timber
#

:L When I have my close settings higher, the mic does not even pick up any sound until i scream

#

i tested the one i did just now on stream and it worked fine

#

@kindred fox Oh dang I tested the 720 res on OBS and it works smoothly now, thanks <3
downside is my window in 720 is tiny on my screen now lol, i guess if i pull it bigger it might lag again? x_X
i know longtime i want it on my TV screen in front of me, but idon't have much time today

kindred fox
#

you can set the resolution of your game to 1920x1080, and OBS will downscale it to 720p for you

Hey, does anyone know why the stream overlays on stream elements aren't working on OBS live?

wary dew
#

did you add them as a browser source?

sage cliff
#

okay one more thing. When I log in to my streamelements website and I try to edit an store redemption the page that comes up says I have no store items.. I have to refresh the page to show any store items. However when I go to click on the item the page immediately goes back to the page that says no store items. What do I do to get this to stop happening? I have signed in and out several times and nothing changes.

rugged quail

So I keep getting the encoder error when streaming only the new cod what do i do?

#

jaunty brook
#

hi im just trying to set up my stream. how do I add overlays to my scene

steel bladeBOT
#

@jaunty brook 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

jaunty brook
#

do i have to add each part of it seperatly

wary dew
#

have you made an overlay yet?

jaunty brook
#

yes i was going to use a super theme just while I get the hang of it

wary dew
#

okay, you can add each one to the corresponding scene in OBS

jaunty brook
#

do they have to be in one scene or multiple?

wary dew
#

if you want to use a certain overlay in multiple scenes then add them to all the scenes you want to use them in 😉

#

but

#

you can add them in 1 first, and then add them as 'exsisting' in the others 😉

#

that way you don't have to set up everything 4 times in OBS

jaunty brook
#

SPITFIRE ANIMATED SUPER THEME that's the one im trying to use

rugged quail
#

is there a new width/height thing now?\

#

cuz when i put in the 1920W and 1080H it looks like it is off the screen

olive jolt

why does it say failed to connect

wise silo
#

Depends.

#

What streaming service do you use?

olive jolt
#

mixer

wise silo
#

Have you put a streamkey in, or have you linked an account?

olive jolt
#

it says stream key bad or cant connect to severs

#

both

kindred fox

So if you go into your broadcast dashboard on mixer, do you have a stream key?

How ? I can't get into OBS

opal swan
#

Hello, I tried streaming on mixer with streamelements, an now want to get back to twitch, but whenever I press the go live button, it says the connection has failed, and in the settigns i am back to a "custom" source.. how can I remove my connection to mixer alltogether? thanks

kindred fox
#

@vagrant ruin push Start + R, type %appdata% and delete the scenes folder inside %appdata%\obs-studio\basic\ relaunch OBS.Live

opal swan
#

thanks will try

kindred fox
#

@opal swan you need to create a new profile in OBS.Live

#

click Profiles >> New

#

name it "Twitch"

#

then go into the OBS Settings and connect it to Twitch

#

Then switch to the other profile and rename it to Mixer

#

then sign into Mixer in OBS Settings

#

You will need to sign out of OBS.Live by clicking StreamElements >> Log Out when you switch profiles

#

I would also recommend generating a Scene Collection for Mixer overlays and Twitch Overlays

opal swan
#

ahhhh seems to be working now thanks!

vagrant ruin
#

@kindred fox didnt work :c

#

i dont get it, when i start obs without obslive it works perfectly fine

has anyone had the issue where Media Request is auto-muting when you tell it to show on stream? Video is visible, but audio mutes itself in dashboard

^^^ Answered in stream

grim meteor
#

@toxic fern thank you

slow tulip
#

it just quits recording and says encoder error

kindred fox
#

@vagrant ruin I want you to do the following:

  1. Go to C:\Program Files\obs-studio\bin\64bit\ and make sure there's no libcef.dll or obs-browser.dll file.
  2. Go into C:\ProgramFiles\obs-studio\obs-plugins\ and delete the 32bit and 64bit folders.
  3. Go to %appdata%\obs-studio\basic\ and move the scenes folder to your Desktop.
  4. Then download and re-install OBS.Live from the website.
  5. Re-launch OBS.Live and see if it crashes
#

@slow tulip can you screenshot your OBS Settings >> Advanced window?

young grove
#

hello, i downloaded the desktop app for obs and now obs will not open

and i have the latest drivers on my gpu

@kindred fox yep, give me one sec.

@kindred fox

wise silo
#

Orsuna is a busy man, and will respond when he has the chance. Pinging him generally only slows him down, as it takes time away from what he is doing to quickly check discord to only go back to what he was doing.

#

@young grove The error tells you what the issue is. Either your GPU is not supported, or your drivers need updated.

#

If you have further issues

@young grove Can you launch OBS if you only launch OBS Studio and not StreamElements OBS?

#

Okay

#

take off CQP

i cannot launvh either

turn off that Psycho Visual Tuning, it's garbage

then try recording the things

#

OBS logs are stored in C:\Users<username>\AppData\Roaming\OBS\ @young grove

@young grove can you download the latest OBS.Live from https://streamelements.com/obslive and then right click the installer and select "Run as Administrator" and once it finishes try launching it

young grove
#

still crashed

Your OBS is outdated.

again, download the latest installer

i used it like a hour and a half ago

kindred fox

let me know if it works @slow tulip

#

@young grove if your software is not updated there is very little troubleshooting that can be done.

wise silo

^

slow tulip
#

will do 👍

kindred fox
#

you need to download the installer as previously stated

#

and run it

wise silo

as admin

young grove
#

should i uninstall the already downloaded one then

wise silo
#

No need. Just get the new installer and run it as admin.

I'll link it again for you

Hey guys, i wanna start my first stream but i'm having issues with my desktop audio. I only plugged in 1 Headset, without any sound boxes or anything. My microphone gets accepted and i can see the soundbar reacting to my voice, but not to the music in the background. Desktop audio isnt working. I tried to switch it on setting from "Default" to "Speaker XXX" and the other way but it still doesnt help..

plain sonnet
#

check your sound settings in windows control panel are set to the correct device (headphones)

in obs go to settings > audio and set "desktop audio" to that device

make sure the slider on the audio mixer is up and not muted

rugged quail
#

yes i only have one headphones to select so its the right one

already is

also is activated 😄

can you paste a log file here please

curiously, what headset have you got

rugged quail

vagrant ruin

@kindred fox My OBS crashes anyway

plain sonnet
#

ok, so obs cant initialize the audio device
you have a few options,

update your audio drivers,
make sure obs is closed and reinstall your headset drivers

run obs as admin

your audio settings in obs shouldnt need to be changed, 44.1 is fine

rugged quail

Ok thanks

#

is there anyway to move around the obs preveiw window?

no, only by moving all the other boxes

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

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

@leaden fog it’s more complicated than that. He’s having a crash error that we can’t replicate or pin down the cause of

#

oh my bad then I was just going off what analyzer said thanks for the correction tho @kindred fox SEheart

kindred fox
#

No prob. We have been testing a few theories to no avail. We know it’s user-based but haven’t tracked down why

mmm Interesting perryT

And we can’t replicate it

@vagrant ruin we are still looking into it. For now if you can use OBS Studio to stream, use it. We will hopefully find the cause soon and let you know.

@toxic elbow This looks like a custom coded event list.

#

@odd kraken well can i copy paste that code somewhere ?

odd kraken
#

You would either need to code it yourself, or buy it from a shop like NerdOrDie.

toxic elbow
#

i allready have it can insert that event list in SE and use SE tip page so it will show in that event list

odd kraken
#

If you have purchased this package best to contact NerdOrDie on how to set it up.
Notmally there is a setup link for StreamElement.

rugged quail

Is there a pre-compiled linux build available from a trusted publisher? If not, can someone talk me through compiling it myself?

ty

leaden fog
#

@rugged quail I think this is the wrong place to ask about getting linux yogevThink

steel mural
#

@rose shoal Like tadpole already said, this is the first "important" line in your crash log. Try to remove all motion filters you're using. If this doesn't help, then obs websocket could cause this crash. For that you can either try to reinstall it or remove it completely to see if the issue persists.

rugged quail
#

@leaden fog I think a help forum is the wrong place to make such unhelpful comments. 🤷‍♀️

rugged quail
#

Any idea if it will work with Wine? OBS Studio is killing me here. It's incredibly glitchy.

I don't know. I've used Linux and Wine in the past but I've never tried to use such a complex program like OBS in it. ^^

I'm just going to try it then.

#

not a text file

turbid ravine
#

well then how do i get there cuz i cant even open OBS 😦

plain swan
#

Hmm have you updated your graphics drivers

turbid ravine
#

lemme check

#

ye there up to date

pseudo phoenix
#

I dont have a crash log so not sure if i should even be in this discord, but ima describe my problem so you guys can ignore it or help if im in the right place. All help is appreciated :). Up until yesterday i have been able to stream with my xbox mix and it works ok its not a quality mic but whatever. Yesterday I went to stream while using my TV as a second monitor and my mic no longer works. My computer detects it and sound comes and goes through but the actual mic itself is no longer picked up inside OBS/live. My computer pics it up just not OBS. I even tried uninstalling OBS and starting from scratch but it no longer pics up any of my Mics at all. Any Ideas?

turbid ravine
#

did you click the gear under near the mic amp in the mixer and choose the right mic? is it muted?

pseudo phoenix
#

I did and the Mic is not muted. I have tried every channel because i thought maybe i am using the wrong input but to no avail

turbid ravine
#

then idk 😦

Thanks anyways man

Hey there, I'm having trouble with a source displaying my XBox companion screen. I've use Window Capture, Display Capture and Game Capture and it always pulls up a black screen. I am able to capture my PS4 game play on Window Capture. What am I missing?

lilac ocean
#

@proper blaze are you using all these captures in one scene?

proper blaze
#

Yes

lilac ocean
#

Having all these captures in one scene will not work, try having one capture only in there, also Game Capture can't always capture everything

#

Try the Window capture alone in a scene

proper blaze
#

trying now

#

I've created a new scene and the source was Window Capture and XBox companion was selected. But still just a black screen

lilac ocean
#

can you show me a screenshot of the settings you have for window capture?

proper blaze
lilac ocean
#

I'll ask around for you!

proper blaze
#

thank you

lilac ocean

Note that it's weekend so response might be a bit slower than usual SEheart

I honestly don't know what to expect. but thanks for the heads up

#

Hey there whenever I try use the stream overlays from stream elements on OBS live I can't get them to work. Not sure how to sort that out any help would be appreciated

steel bladeBOT
#

@steady monolith 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

steady monolith
#

I tried that but it doesn't show the overlay just stays on a black screen :(

steel bladeBOT
steady monolith
#

I have the browser source hardwares acceleration enabled so am I meant to disable it?

wary dew
#

yes

steady monolith
#

Got it sorted thanks guys for the help

weird it didnt appear two days ago, i just switched to OBs normal then close and reopen it and seems to be there well thx xD

#

You'll need to refresh the overlay, usually by switching scenes and switching back while "Shutdown source when not visible" is enabled.

ty 🙂

#

Would you recommend also selecting "refresh browser when scene becomes active" ?

tulip hamlet
#

Shouldn't be needed as well.

Hey yall, been having a problem with the event rotator by CO6Studios. For some reason when I have Latest sub active and Latest gift active with the (what I assume to be correct parameters in place) the latest sub shows "name" xGift" "months" and the Latest gifted sub with the parameters set to {{ sender }} {{ amount }} shows the subscriber who got the actual gifted sub. Not sure if anyone has any insight to this problem

tulip hamlet

@sharp tiger Community-created widgets are provided as is and it's up to you to get them going.

quick swan
#

how do you get a custom overlay on?

steel bladeBOT
#

@quick swan 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

quick swan
#

is there a way to mute media request on your end, but the viewers still hear?

tulip hamlet
#

You'd need an audio mixer to accomplish this, usually.

quick swan
#

ok thanks

#

not really related to just stream elements, but says i cant tsream bc of non up to date video encoders. how do i check that?

HELP! why when I stream, my twitch is soooo bad, the image is horrible, yet on facebook it comes on perfectly \

steel bladeBOT
#

@twin raven 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.

twin raven
steel bladeBOT
#

@twin raven 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+)

twin raven
#

the recording came out so nice and clear yet on twitch its all not nice

shy mountain
#

Do you have a VOD of the low quality?

twin raven
#

whats VOD?

shy mountain
#

Past broadcasts

#

I see they are sub only

twin raven
#

Yea i am trying to see from the 22nd of jan but twitch is just soooo low on my pc

#

not sure why cause i have fast internet

#

and its only on twitch that i am having problems lloading

shy mountain
twin raven
#

I have a link... i posted it here but its gone now

shy mountain
#

I deleted it on purpose

#

Also as seen by the screenshot i posted

#

I cannot access the VOD

twin raven
#

I will contact twitch.. looks like its from their end.. cause I cant even get to account, it wont load

shy mountain
#

It might be your internet

#

having a fast internet does not always mean 100% uptime.

#

unplug your router from the power for like 5-10 minutes

#

speedtests can be inaccurate sometimes when you have internet issues

twin raven
#

yea done that, still not working.. i am fine with all other websites

#

its soo weird

real sphinx
#

Did i ever get any answer

#

How do i check

#

Here is so many messages

#

My PC still crashes it 50% of the times when i start the programm

#

Im mad

lilac ocean
#

You can search on your own name in the top right search bar

#

did you have a notification?

real sphinx
#

I dont think anyone ever replied

lilac ocean
#

I see you have sent in some crash reports, im going to ask around for you if anyone had answered your question or is busy working on it SEheart

shy mountain
real sphinx
#

i already sent those

lilac ocean
#

Keizar, he did send in some crash logs if you search on his name

#

I'm downloading them right now

#

Hold on

lilac ocean
#

alright 👌

shy mountain
#

Read this @real sphinx ⤴️

#
#

Now the question is - is the most recent crash log showing the same thing?

real sphinx
#

this is the latest one that got generated

#

i use 64 bit though

#

im using media files ill check

The first thread then

try deleting your scene then delete all of your game capture browsers and stuff and start freash that may help

oblique ivy
#

hello, can i make overlay to see only to me?

lilac ocean
#

no

#

you will have to add your overlay to your stream, which will show the overlay on your stream

last loom
#

Alot of people think because they got good internet they can stream I thought so to... Up to just not to long ago I wasnt able to stream..... Because years ago I thought Your download speed witch is all you hear about.. but its your download speed which is your gaming and streaming.. and your internet companies internet has to be stable as well

lilac ocean
#

What do you want to use a private overlay for exactly?

oblique ivy
#

chat

lilac ocean
#

Do you use OBS studios with our plugin OBS.Live?

oblique ivy
#

yes

lilac ocean
#

this will allow you to have a chat dock

#

can you send me a screenshot of your obs?

oblique ivy
#

sure, what exactly?

lilac ocean
#

just of the screen while you have it open

oblique ivy
#

also i cant see the chat overlay on my own

#

im new to streaming so i dont know if it should be like that

lilac ocean
#

if you click on StreamElements in the top bar

#

there should be thing you can click named chat

#

wait but, you can see the chat in that white box right?

#

or are you only using 1 monitor?

oblique ivy
#

i have only 1 monitor

#

that the problem

lilac ocean
#

I'd advise to use your phone or anything for chat, since its not possible to show chat only on streamers side

oblique ivy
#

okat thank you, is it possible to me to see overlay?

#

or it is like you never see overlays

lilac ocean
#

you will only see a overlay when you have obs studios open

oblique ivy
#

so when im in game theres no way i see overlay?

lilac ocean
#

correct

#

no Streaming Application does that

oblique ivy
#

thank you very much, you helped me much

lilac ocean
#

No worries, sorry I couldn't help you fix the problem

#

i'd just advise to get a cheap second monitor for it

#

hello everyone im new at streaming and have a lot of problems lool but this one scratch my head and i hope someone can answer me im on obs.live im trying to stream from my 3440x1440 resolution when i try to apply an overlay and put the good size in the config it appear not enough big like you can see on the right of the pics

formal tundra
#

hey all. I tried using the stream credits widget on my stream last night but it didn't work. (It ran, but no one showed up in credits even though I had new followers and cheers during the stream). I doublechecked the config and it looks ok. Do you think it might be because I raided someone before launching that scene? Does that clear the widget data or something?

#

(to be more clear, I'm referring to the "credit roll" widget by Grot that's in the themes gallery.) If it helps - the stream is here and you can see the roll "running" with no content at 5:16.

limber juniper
#

@analog whale i think all overlays are at 1920x1080. You would need to create a custom overlay that will fit your stream. However, do account for the fact that viewers will be watching your stream in a 16x9 ratio, Which means, your stream will have black bars above and below it, taking away valuable real estate.

#

@formal tundra when I first used the widget, I had to change some of the code to actually pick up certain events. Not sure how familiar you are with JavaScript. I do not think its because you raided someone before launching the scene. It clears when your session has been offline for 15min.

formal tundra
#

I'm a workable hack when it comes to JS. I didn't look in there yet bc I thought it would work by default. any tips on what to look for?

analog whale
#

@limber juniper tanks for your fast answer so can i stream in 1920x1080 on my 3440x1440 screen?

#

without losing half of the screen on my stream

limber juniper
#

@formal tundra it may at one time worked, but an API could have changed since then. I believe the object on the event, the original credits code was looking for something that doesn't exist anymore. I had to console log it and test it with the dashboard to eventually move that way.

#

@analog whale you can stream whatever resolution that makes you happy. Just know that the player that twitch provides only does 16x9. Some streamers with wider resolutions play games in window mode at a 16x9 ratio and then Game Capture them and set up their scenes that way. I've also see people stream with wider resolution much like yours, and use the extra real estate for non game things (i.e. leader boards, last follower, tip, cheer, etc)

@limber juniper thanks mate

@limber juniper - oh that would be awesome. I could probably hack it together from that.

Hi! Is it possible to have MEDIA REQUEST as a separate audio mixer so the volume is different for me and chat?

honest echo
#

@hollow lichen i did what you ask by using GC from Media Request 😛

low wolf
#

heelo.. does recording while streaming use same resources or will impact some more fps in obs.live??

kindred fox
#

I believe it doubles the amount of resources needed as you're doing the same thing twice: Encoding to stream, and recording to your internal storage.

hollow lichen
#

@honest echo Hey! How exactly? I can't seem to make GroundControl show up on my audio devices

#

the audio just plays on "desktop audio"

honest echo
#

ok.. imagine you have a USB headphone and an integrated sound card

#

on windows mixer you can change where to ouput is

#

and then on OBS you can add 2 audio input .. on settins > Audio

Hey folks, can I stream to twitch and record at the same time but remove some overlays from the recording? What i want is to stream gameplay and some other stuff like webcam, donations e.t.c but i want the recording to have just gameplay and audio.

muted shuttle
#

@molten plover I dont think you can do that since you will be recording your screen initially and whatever is there will be recorded and streamed at the same time if you also ticked the 'record while streaming'

#

Can someone please help with my Issue 😦

tulip hamlet
#

@molten plover There's no way right now to hide an overlay in a recording while displaying it on stream, but it's something OBS Studio intends to add in the future.

I'm using mixer though which didnt show in the options

tulip hamlet
#

What's the username?

muted shuttle
#

Its HeyPersii

tulip hamlet
#

You don't seem to have added the widgets to your overlay that'd actually display the data.

muted shuttle
#

Is the reason why the widget is not working because of this?

#

when i change anything here it appears on the widgets but i dont want to manually do it

tulip hamlet
#

No, you shouldn't need to touch that.

#

Your overlay itself does not have the widgets that would show the data.

#

Just the background and stream chat.

muted shuttle
#

No its not

#

it shows my follower count but not latest

tulip hamlet
#

Can you save your overlay first so I can see the changes you've made?

muted shuttle
#

sure

tulip hamlet
#

Since you've only connected today, we don't get any history of events that took place before you connected to StreamElements with your Mixer account.

#

Events moving forward will populate the widgets.

#

Just make sure they're sized in such a way that usernames won't cut out.

muted shuttle
#

So meaning i would need new followers for it to show up?

#

if thats the case then I'd be happy if it was blank for now

tulip hamlet
#

Yes.

#

The next follower should appear.

#

Oh okay

Been trying to use the cloud backup feature but it hangs at 0% when creating package, and then gives error that my account is out of space, but I have no backups uploaded.

There's still a maximum to how much size you can have in your cloud backups, even if it's all being taken by the one.

I'm trying to setup the alert box in the overlay editor. I used my own animation, however the text over image option doesn't work. The text just disappears, I assume behind the image. I've tried with multiple images, and videos. Thanks.

winter pulsar
#

Awesome, thanks @tulip hamlet

autumn umbra
#

@tulip hamlet if there's anything else you need from me, please let me know

tulip hamlet
#

It definitely looks like you just have too much.

autumn umbra
#

too much what? i dont understand - does the backup also backup video files from the vlc video element?

tulip hamlet
#

I would have to check to be sure but it's possible. Can you try removing those for now? You can probably have those handled through our overlay system as well.

autumn umbra
#

It's not crucial at this juncture and I can create local backups in the meantime - i just wish there was some verbiage on what was being backed up and how large the backup fileis during the backup process.

tulip hamlet
#

Anything you're sourcing locally, be it graphics, videos, etc., is likely being included, else it wouldn't be much of a backup.

#

Again, I'd have to check to be sure, but that's likely what's happening.

autumn umbra
#

right, but you say likely - so it's not certain. I understand that it's a new feature - so I guess just mark this under feature request - also - obs local backups don't include media files - only their locations

tulip hamlet
#

Yes, but we're also not OBS.

steel bladeBOT
#

@autumn umbra Check out the StreamElements ideas board: https://strms.net/ideas. You'll be able to add ideas, upvote ideas you agree with, and track their progress with email notifications. Adding and upvoting ideas also helps the staff know which ideas should be prioritized so please take some time to upvote.

autumn umbra
#

but it's an obs plugin catshrug -again just be nice for both users and staff to know what is being backed up. 👍

tulip hamlet
#

A Google Chrome extension doesn't necessarily follow the same design philosophies that Google does. Likewise, just because we've made an OBS plugin doesn't mean we do everything the same way OBS Project does.

#

As soon as we get confirmation of what gets backed up, we'll let you know so you can plan accordingly.

Hey! I recently started streaming on mixer and I tried setting up my tipping page but it is not showing up on stream in my events list, nor is it showing up for "recent tipper"

#

It works in my Twitch streams however

#

Did they use the mixer link?

yes i generated a new link through my streamelements mixer profile

#

and put that in my bio

#

hey guys quick question how do i remove the streamelements bot from my twitch channel?

odd kraken
#

On your dashboard https://streamelements.com/dashboard/ on the right, there is a button PART CHANNEL.
May I ask why you would like to remove it from your channel? Anything we can help you with?

shy mountain
#

@tropic portal So the issue is...missing alert?

tropic portal
#

Yes exactly. The alert box is set up as is the “recent tipper” widget. I received the money in my paypal but did not receive alerts on stream

shy mountain
#

And nothing in the revenue history?

tropic portal
#

Nope nothing in revenue history

shy mountain
#

What about the twitch revenue history?

#

if its not there, then they tipped you another way

tropic portal
#

Ok I will check in my Twitch revenue history when I get home. Something strange that I saw was when I clicked on the link generated by the mixer profile on streamelements, it ended up taking me to the same link as my twitch tipping

shy mountain
#

It actually did redirect to the twitch link

#

this means you've set a redirect within the mixer panel.

tropic portal
#

What does that mean? I don’t even have a panel yet 😅 I just have a link

shy mountain
#

When i hover over the link i see the link leading to the non-numeric one.

tropic portal
#

Oh I thought you meant a panel you could click on 😄 Maybe it’s like that because I copy and pasted it over the old link? Ok I’ll try redoing that whole section and see if that works!

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

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

and crashed

I need fast help plz

hollow lichen
#

I don't get it. Media request sounds louder than my games to me but super quiet to my viewers

quasi snow
#

@hollow lichen the volume bar on OBS, put it to 100% so they hear what you hear

#

then adjust media volume on StreamElements on OBS.Live or on chat with !volume command so it's comfortable for everyone

@shy mountain thank you so much!! i think it's fixed now 😄

woeful mantle
#

Can OBS stream to two different sites at the same time??

spiral elk
#

so everytime I startup obs live I have to do the media request tour, is there a way to make that not happen?

woeful mantle
#

for instance youtube + twitch at the same time?

plain sonnet
#

nope, you will need to use something like restream

woeful mantle
#

ok cool. thanks

slender iron
#

hello

honest echo
slender iron
#

i have an problem with obs live. when i will put in my camera it is not shown

honest echo
#

trying moving the sources (up or down) maybe other source is blockin

slender iron
#

no the camera is on the top

honest echo
#

trying delete it and adding again?

slender iron
#

i tried this.

quiet stone
#

Did you tried using the webcam in a different program like discord, skype etc

slender iron
#

no

quiet stone
#

Try it, if its not working there either try reinstalling the drivers

kindred fox
#

what webcam?

slender iron
#

razer kiyo

#

and at obs live the camera is shown in the settings but in the preview is a black screen

kindred fox
#

Do you have Razer Synapse installed?

slender iron
#

yes

kindred fox
#

Go into Synapse >> Broadcaster >> Disable Preview

spiral elk
#

so everytime I startup obs live I have to do the media request tour, is there a way to make that not happen?

kindred fox
#

Synapse overrides OBS and will retain control of the device if the preview is enabled...thereby not showing the device correctly in OBS

#

I only know this because it happened to me!!!!!

honest echo
#

now i know .. Bad Synapse bad!

kindred fox
#

Or you could just exit Synapse and then relaunch OBS

#

That also should work

slender iron
#

il done this and now my camera is off

kindred fox
#

delete the camera and re-add it as a source

#

it will come back

honest echo
#

but i think the same happen with every webcam, cause if i use the logitech software dont let other software use it..

kindred fox
#

Synapse is a pain. Once you disable the preview, the light should turn off and you should be able to re-launch OBS and it should show up

#

It's because Synapse had control of the device, preventing OBS from enabling it. Once Synapse lets go, OBS can then use the device

#

is so dumb they did that

slender iron
#

thanks bro you are my hero it still works

kindred fox
#

Sorry it's a pain. Make sure that if you re-launch Synapse that the preview in Synapse STAYS off

#

Then you don't have to worry about it going forward

spiral elk
#

so everytime I startup obs live I have to do the media request tour, is there a way to make that not happen?

kindred fox
#

Do you actually click the button or are you clicking "Launch Media Request" under the tour button?

spiral elk
#

launch media but it makes a separate window, I was wondering if there was a way to just avoid this?

#

ive also pressed the take a tour multiple times trying to get rid of it

kindred fox
#

Click Launch Media Request >> Close the MR panel and the window it opens >> Click StreamElements >> Docks >> Media Request

Are there any quick notes or tutorial guide for OBS settings ideal for low upload speeds so streams run smoothly? I've doing alright but changing to FPS games it needs some more tweaking so pixelation doesnt occur

Hey! I accidently deleted something that wass important to the OBS Live file; in turn, can't open the app. So I'm trying to reinstall the whole thing but it issn't working. Any help?

@kindred fable trying unninstall the OBS Studio first the install all back (maybe you deleted something from obs, not for obs.live)

kindred fox
#

540p60 at 2000kbps can be done for a fairly smooth quality

You need to uninstall OBS.Live before uninstalling OBS Studio.

ok sorry once again i just want to make sure that its not me or my hardware i have a evga 2060 ultra 6gb 16 ddr3 ram at 3000 and a rayzen 5 3600 im streaming at 1080p 60 fps 6000 bitrate the cable guy is coming today to see if its the single. but the issue is i would drop all the way too 0kbs on a gig download and 40 upload as u can see in the picture i am going to post below i can do 6000kb from connecting to cali with no probs. so would that mean that its just my single not stable its dropping all the way too 0 or my hardware? https://i.imgur.com/EHuUKlw.png

#

i could use my 3600 to stream from if i wanted to but im not as i was tould my rtx 2060 was better to stream from on a single pc set up

Hello there. I'm wondering if anyone has this issue with Media Request > Twitch.
It works fine but if I click 'Show on Stream', I get dual audio playing i.e. from
OBS Live and the stream at the same time. If I mute Media Request, media is
mute on stream. If I mute/disable Desktop Audio, dual audio is the same.

steel bladeBOT
#

@peak saddle 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.

#

@prisma falcon 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

No output session. Please upload a log link of a stream.

steel bladeBOT
#
  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+)

can i use alerts from streamelements into streamlabs obs ?

odd kraken
#

Have you added the overlay as browser source with the correct resolution?
Is the alert coming up in the editor @gloomy ivy

steel bladeBOT
#

@spare hull 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.

gloomy ivy
#

hold up i didnt know about the res

steel bladeBOT
#

@gloomy ivy 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

gloomy ivy
#

i feel dumb lol but thank you @odd kraken

spare hull
#

if i use streamelements and obs live i would get notification on livestream about new subs ?

odd kraken

If you set it up correctly, yes.

prisma falcon
#

@steel blade Many thanks for that. It's working completely fine now! Have a nice day.

spiral elk
#

um streamelements still makes me do the tutorial for media request when I open obs live any solution to stop this from happening?

kindred fox
#

@spiral elk dunno if it worked earlier, but I did suggest clicking "Launch Media Request" in the panel, waiting for MR to load then closing both the panel and the MR window that opened and then clicking StreamElements > Docks > Media Request to see if it resets or if it lets you in

spiral elk
#

I tried that

#

it didnt seem to work

i accidentally got rid of my chat in my obs screen and now it shows my creator dashboard instead. any help?

spiral elk
#

is it as a separate window?

quiet linden
#

it can be

#

it basically opened it as if it were a browser

spiral elk
#

close the window and then re add it StreamElements >> chat

quiet linden
#

Like I could watch another stream in it

spiral elk
#

^ not sure if it will help btw

quiet linden
#

tried that and it just reopens the same thing

spiral elk
#

what exactly did you do to cause this?

quiet linden
#

when it was just chat i was looking at settings and i hit manage moderation settings and then it wouldn't let me go back

spiral elk
#

so the only fix "I" know of is restarting obs

quiet linden
#

i will try that i suppose

spiral elk
#

alternatively you can just bringup the out on chrome

quiet linden
#

how do i restart obs

spiral elk
#

just close it and when you reopen it , it should be back to normal

#

but it will close any streams going on at the time

quiet linden
#

thanks

that was a wierd thing

hello

shy mountain
#

Instead of posting in multiple channels

#

please state your issue

rugged quail
#

@cedar swan soooo lag problems can be down to multiple things

#

it could be as simple as bitrate settings or could be your actual wifi

#

go to speedtest.net and show me your stats then show me your settings, I gather you are using OBS?

cedar swan
#

I hope I can fix it

#

Okay one sec doing it now

#

Okay so I lowered my bit rate and it’s playing constantly but it looks blurry

#

I have my stream going so it says 7mpbs

#

It usually says 11mbs tho

#

@rugged quail

rugged quail
#

okay so the problem is not your obs, it looks like its your broadband.. 131 ping is not great as you want to get is as close to 1 as possible.. have you tried restarting your hub?

#

ping and upload speed play a big part in streaming

#

and if your broadband is low then you need to change your obs settings to match this

cedar swan
#

Yes I turned it off and back on

#

I’m not sure what I should do from here tho

rugged quail
#

what bitrate you trying to stream at?

#

Going off your broadband above, it would be really hard to push over 2K / 2.5K

cedar swan
#

1500

#

I have it really low lol

rugged quail
#

stream output?

cedar swan
rugged quail
#

set keyframe to 2

#

I think it's mainly down to your broadband not your obs

shy mountain
cedar swan
#

Set it

plain sonnet
#

if you have 7 upload, theres not much reason to be on 1.5k bitrate

if you are the only one streaming (or using heavy upload) then go to like 5.5

cedar swan
#

And I’m gonna call I think my family is using my WiFi to watch tv also

#

Imma call xfinity later today

#

See if they can upgrade my internet

#

Maybe that will help

plain sonnet
#

watching tv will mostly affect download speed, only a small dip in upload load

cedar swan
#

Hmm yea true I think imma just upgrade my internet package hopefully that fixed it

rugged quail
#

Broadbands nowadays can easily hit 500+ so yeah id see what your area can do

#

@shy mountain Looking at that new encoding site, imma change my 900p settings, didn't realise the nvidia vs x264 were slightly different

shy mountain
#

its not new rooIsee

oof

@wide sedge There are no "best settings".
Please understand that every setup, will be very different.
Any guides or videos that claim otherwise are misinforming. Your best option is to start with a base and adjust as necessary.

Hoping this is the right text channel to post this question...I am moving as much stuff from Streamlabs Chatbot over to StreamElements services. One of them is using Ground Control for the song request function. I have it all set up pretty much spot on but the one thing that I can't figure out how to do is to outright disable the video of songs in the Ground Control app. I do not show videos on stream for the requested songs, yet I cannot find a way to just hear have the audio. The video will play in Ground Control regardless...and it chunks a couple extra percent of system resources. Is there anyway to just disable the video so it doesn't play? Thanks

Hey i dont really know how this works but my OBS keeps crashing on startup

#

can i get some help?

#

Hey Lil, ill be with you in a second

#

im going to ask around for you both @low wolf and @candid steppe

floral lantern
#

@lilac ocean thank you for your quick response. I had a look at the website link you sent me and all I see are options that I pretty much see in Ground control. Just to be clear...I am not wanting the option where I show or hide the video to viewers on stream (through an overlay I am guessing this would be...) - I want to be able to disable the video on my computer so all that comes through is the audio from the video....to reduce the overall impact on my streaming PC.

lilac ocean
#

hmm I don't know if that's an option, I'll have to ask around for that!

#

@low wolf yes the 3d subscriber alertbox widget is also supported on youtube SEheart

floral lantern
#

Thanks! One would imagine if it was an option already I would have found it by now cause I looked through everywhere I could think of...but was hoping just incase there was some secret hidden menu 😄

lilac ocean
#

@candid steppe we require the latest crash log, so on windows you'd just navigate to %APPDATA%\obs-studio\crashes and grab the latest file from there.

candid steppe
#

yes i have it here

#

its in a file

lilac ocean
#

we're investigating the log as we speak

candid steppe
#

ok thank you

kindred fox
#

@candid steppe Can you push Start + R to open the Run window and type %appdata% and click Ok? It should take you to the Roaming folder. I need you to then click on AppData in the file location address bar thingy

#

Then go into Local

#

then go into Temp

#

select everything in that folder and delete it

#

relaunch OBS

candid steppe
#

some of the things i cant delete

#

what do i do about the,

mint pecan
#

heyooo! wondering if anyone can give me some advice? i just started using streamelements thanks to a friend yesterday and setup everything on the site but what i did notice is that even tho i have an alert box in the Overlay itself, none of my alerts were coming up for people on my stream when they subbed or liked the stream?

candid steppe
#

them*

kindred fox
#

which things?

#

if they're folders that's probably fine....it's mostly the files that are inside Temp

candid steppe
#

there is discord crashes nbidia corporation streamlabs obs crashes and some weird number ones

kindred fox
#

yeah you can skip those

#

mostly those are what we're looking for

#

everything that isn't a folder

#

let's start with those 😉

candid steppe
#

yes i got those

kindred fox
#

okay. relaunch OBS

#

see if it opens

candid steppe
#

there is still a crash and now theres more stuff in the folder

kindred fox
#

is there a WPF folder inside that Temp folder?

candid steppe
#

do you mean one named WPF

#

if so then no
