haha alright all g
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???
please dont post your issue twice in two different channels
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.
@rugged quail is it your primary or secondary display that wont work
@plain swan primary one isn't working
are you on laptop or desktop
desktop
Make sure both of your displays are plugged into the right GPU.
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
hello
I just installed obs live. Could someone please link a playlist of any useful setup videos?
@short badge Checkout StreamElements Youtube channel, several guides for you!! https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCjerlCIbLPQwSnYlClkjDXg or a list with all the guides https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLCDDKlFdScbEwdx5AntcQIS1InkFJwHtv
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**^
?
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
this is my pc so idk how too lol
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?
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
no
theres no need to restart your pc now
do you know what GPU you have?
how long have you had your PC
got delivered yesterday. i already restarted it and its working now
ah touche
thanks a bunch
well try your display sources now first
yes thats what i mean the main monitor display is all good now its showing on obs
no worries, welcome to the PC master race
ok so every minute or so it goes black again lol any idea why??
In OBS?
no the monitor
its been happening since i put the cable in the bottom
when it was up top it didnt happen
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?
yh everything is in correctly and no its like the monitor gets switched off
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.
ok thanks for the help
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????
@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.
i used to be able to see the crash reports but not any more... do u want me to past the log here?
right now im 2.9%processor and 40 % gpu 3D
ok
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 
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)
Close has to be lower than open
If the "Close" value is higher, it effectively closes the mic before it even opens.
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
@tawdry shell For the best OBS support, please join their Official Discord @ discord.gg/obsproject
: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
you can set the resolution of your game to 1920x1080, and OBS will downscale it to 720p for you
HELP ME PLEASE!!
I changed my name last night and now my chatbox won't work and neither will any of my alerts, timers or commands. HELP PLEASE.. I'm doing a Charity stream tomorrow and need all these things working.
Hey, have you logged out of OBS.Live via the top menu? StreamElements -> Logout -> log back in?
On my actual OBS I cannot find anything that actually says Logout... But I did log out and back into my stream labs from website
Streamlabs or StreamElements?
@kindred fox ok last night you were helping me and I had to leave. How do i back up my profile if OBS crashes right on launch?
when i click start streaming it says failed output
@sinful flint Sorry... Streamelements However I looked at your message several times and then went into my OBS live and finally found the logout button > YES that helped with the chatbox for sure...
Great!
Now I have to figure out why my commands, alerts and timers wont work uugghh ANY IDEAS ON THOSE

Streaming to twitch, correct?
Install the latest driver for NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2060 SUPER and try again
it is installed
Then uninstall, and reinstall it.
So for some reason stream elements obs is using 100% of my gpu when i switch my curson from one monitor to another or click on a window that is in another scene. then it makes my computer bog down to like 1 frame a second and i have to shut it down
@wise silo i did and it says the same shit
Youve been assisted in the OBS discord. 🤔
Failed to recreate D3D11: Failed to create input layout (80070057)

Hey, does anyone know why the stream overlays on stream elements aren't working on OBS live?
did you add them as a browser source?
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.
So I keep getting the encoder error when streaming only the new cod what do i do?
above is the log
Mind posting your normal log? @rugged quail
Please provide a log from your last stream. To do this, in OBS go to Help > Log Files > Upload Last Log File and paste the link to the log file here.
Please read the bot above
You provided a crash log, and I am asking for your OBS stream log.
How do I do that
Exactly how the bot said.
@rugged quail Please provide a log from your last stream. To do this, in OBS go to Help > Log Files > Upload Last Log File and paste the link to the log file here.
I can tell you that you did not copy the link then.

Are you using chrome @sage cliff
@wise silo yes I am using crome
Ok, lets try this.
Open a Incognito Window on Chrome, go to https://streamelements.com/dashboard/store/items and then log in & try it there
ok ill try... 1 sec.
@hollow zinc Mind if I shoot you a DM?
no problem

is a helper able to DM with me? i am having troubles with my OBS and streamelements
hi im just trying to set up my stream. how do I add overlays to my scene
@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
do i have to add each part of it seperatly
have you made an overlay yet?
yes i was going to use a super theme just while I get the hang of it
okay, you can add each one to the corresponding scene in OBS
do they have to be in one scene or multiple?
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
SPITFIRE ANIMATED SUPER THEME that's the one im trying to use
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
click on the source and press ctrl+f

Can anyone share the link where you can setup a custom name bot instead of "StreamElements" now that the API is broken for Ground Control?
Hi, I'm here following up on request 43066 which directed me to this channel.
ok, my stream keeps ending on me, like what the heck??
have you closed obs since the stream ended?
nope

why does it say failed to connect
mixer
Have you put a streamkey in, or have you linked an account?
So if you go into your broadcast dashboard on mixer, do you have a stream key?
Can anyone help ? When I install OBS LIVE and then run OBS, it crashes evertime

How ? I can't get into OBS
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
@vagrant ruin push Start + R, type %appdata% and delete the scenes folder inside %appdata%\obs-studio\basic\ relaunch OBS.Live
thanks will try
@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
ahhhh seems to be working now thanks!
@kindred fox didnt work :c
i dont get it, when i start obs without obslive it works perfectly fine
here is my crash report https://obsproject.com/logs/MjvhiZtMYdIyAqY0
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
@toxic fern thank you
https://obsproject.com/analyzer/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fobsproject.com%2Flogs%2FsvHleglBWsLcGGDw can anyone tell me what the "encoder start error" is about. my drivers for GPU are up to date.
it just quits recording and says encoder error
@vagrant ruin I want you to do the following:
- Go to C:\Program Files\obs-studio\bin\64bit\ and make sure there's no libcef.dll or obs-browser.dll file.
- Go into C:\ProgramFiles\obs-studio\obs-plugins\ and delete the 32bit and 64bit folders.
- Go to %appdata%\obs-studio\basic\ and move the scenes folder to your Desktop.
- Then download and re-install OBS.Live from the website.
- Re-launch OBS.Live and see if it crashes
@slow tulip can you screenshot your OBS Settings >> Advanced window?
hello, i downloaded the desktop app for obs and now obs will not open
and i have the latest drivers on my gpu
error message says gpu may not be supoported or drivers may need to be updated
@kindred fox yep, give me one sec.
@kindred fox
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
For the best OBS support, please join their Official Discord @ discord.gg/obsproject
lemme see your output settings @slow tulip
alright, it only had stopped working after i downloaded obs.live

i cannot open obs
Then navigate to the logs folder and post it here.
@young grove Can you launch OBS if you only launch OBS Studio and not StreamElements OBS?
Okay
take off CQP
should be CBR
i cannot launvh either
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
still crashed
Your OBS is outdated.
again, download the latest installer
23:03:30.246: OBS 23.2.1 (64-bit, windows)
ok, will switch to CBR, and turn off psycho and try again. thanks man~
i used it like a hour and a half ago
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.
^
will do 👍
as admin
should i uninstall the already downloaded one then
No need. Just get the new installer and run it as admin.
running the latest installer from https://streamelements.com/obslive will update your OBS Studio version to the latest build
I'll link it again for you
ok obs opened now
👍
@vagrant ruin did OBS.Live launch for you?
guys, can someone plz help me with this crash log??
My obs alwys crash when I'll close the aplication...
I stream during hours without any problems, but when I'll exit, it crashes =(

@rose shoal Are you using a motion filter on any sources?
so i added the Credits widget today to my overlay and when i ended my stream it did not pull any of my followers. how do i fix this?
does streamelements have a spinning wheel widget already?
@mortal bone 99% sure the answer is yes. 1 sec.
This is the closest I can find atm on mobile https://discordapp.com/channels/141203863863558144/457957557470887947/659336746051567627
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..
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
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
help > log files > upload current
sorry, shopping just arrived...
curiously, what headset have you got
Pecosso Gaming Headset
@kindred fox My OBS crashes anyway
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
ah that really sucks
@jade folio Dropped frames / disconnecting? Follow the troubleshooting steps at: https://obsproject.com/wiki/Dropped-Frames-and-General-Connection-Issues
seem to be having trouble with some of my OBS loading up.
What isn't loading up for you?
@steel mural yeah I'm using motion filter! Is that the problem?

@tadpole nice, it works now. Thank u so much
awesome 👍
I still need help, my OBS still crashes as soon as I have installed OBS LIVE
Can you please provide a crash log?
here is my crash report https://obsproject.com/logs/MjvhiZtMYdIyAqY0
how do i add discord audio on a seperate source or is there no way of doing this?
@idle blade no real way of doing it without you using something like voicemeeter banana well of what I know anyways
@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:
- Restart OBS.
- 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.
- Stop your stream/recording.
- 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 
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 
And we can’t replicate it
crash logs dont show up in the analyser
2 different files
@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.
@leaden fog this is what i got https://obsproject.com/logs/5j-evLLXY8-TWyIg
hey guys can i customize the event list in SE or is it allways the same i would like it like these ( http://prntscr.com/qt3wnb )
@kindred fox okay i hope i can use OBS LIVE again as soon as possible
@toxic elbow This looks like a custom coded event list.
@odd kraken well can i copy paste that code somewhere ?
You would either need to code it yourself, or buy it from a shop like NerdOrDie.
The screenshot looks like the following package: https://nerdordie.com/product/uplink-stream-pack/
i allready have it can insert that event list in SE and use SE tip page so it will show in that event list
If you have purchased this package best to contact NerdOrDie on how to set it up.
Notmally there is a setup link for StreamElement.
Is there a pre-compiled linux build available from a trusted publisher? If not, can someone talk me through compiling it myself?
ty
@rugged quail I think this is the wrong place to ask about getting linux 
@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.
@leaden fog I think a help forum is the wrong place to make such unhelpful comments. 🤷♀️
There's no Linux version at the moment. Neither pre-compiled, nor a source code for Linux. But OBS.Live has a Github repo see: https://github.com/StreamElements/obs-browser
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.
So I added the Credits widget yesterday to my overlay and when I ended my stream it did not pull any of my new followers. How do I fix this?

ye thats what i did
well then how do i get there cuz i cant even open OBS 😦
Hmm have you updated your graphics drivers
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?
did you click the gear under near the mic amp in the mixer and choose the right mic? is it muted?
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
then idk 😦
Thanks anyways man
tks @steel mural ❤️
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?
@proper blaze are you using all these captures in one scene?
Yes
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
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
can you show me a screenshot of the settings you have for window capture?
I'll ask around for you!
thank you
Note that it's weekend so response might be a bit slower than usual 
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
@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
I tried that but it doesn't show the overlay just stays on a black screen :(
@steady monolith OBS -> settings -> advanced -> scroll down -> enable/disable hardware accel.
https://i.imgur.com/ggMe9ZE.png
I have the browser source hardwares acceleration enabled so am I meant to disable it?
yes
Got it sorted thanks guys for the help
helllo streamelements OBS remove the betterttv emotes shortcut form the chat D:?
No, BTTV emotes should still work fine in OBS.Live.
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
😄
How could I start this counter over again?
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" ?
Shouldn't be needed as well.
I recently installed OBS.Live and signed into mixer to test the plugin, now I can't find a single way to change OBS.Live to twitch??
I know how to do it on SLOBS but I prefer OBS Studio

@latent snow Streamelements on top of OBS -> Logout -> login
Little problem on my side, when "media request" play music...I ear the music in echo. What can i do to resolve that issue?
@scenic wave 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
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
@sharp tiger Community-created widgets are provided as is and it's up to you to get them going.
how do you get a custom overlay on?
@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
is there a way to mute media request on your end, but the viewers still hear?
You'd need an audio mixer to accomplish this, usually.
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?
how do u check the log?
@quick swan For the best OBS support, please join their Official Discord @ discord.gg/obsproject
HELP! why when I stream, my twitch is soooo bad, the image is horrible, yet on facebook it comes on perfectly \
@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 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+)
Do you have a VOD of the low quality?
whats VOD?
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
I have a link... i posted it here but its gone now
I deleted it on purpose
Also as seen by the screenshot i posted
I cannot access the VOD
I will contact twitch.. looks like its from their end.. cause I cant even get to account, it wont load
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
Did i ever get any answer
How do i check
Here is so many messages

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

I dont think anyone ever replied
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 
i already sent those
thx !
alright 👌
Yo, I've been having random crashes with all of them blaming w32-pthreads.dll. It usually happens after a lil' while, sometimes it takes longer, sometimes it happens already after 1 min.
Here's the latest crash log:
Read this @real sphinx ⤴️
And one of the other crash logs shows this DLL to be crashing: https://obsproject.com/forum/threads/obs-keeps-crashing-during-stream-cant-figure-out-why-here-is-the-crash-log.75901/
Unhandled exception: 80000003

Now the question is - is the most recent crash log showing the same thing?
this is the latest one that got generated
i use 64 bit though
im using media files ill check
The first thread then
its 39,3mb not that big
@real sphinx For the best OBS support, please join their Official Discord @ discord.gg/obsproject
Tbh this is out of our scope
thanks anyways for trying, ill just delete the media source and see if it ever cashes again
My normal OBS crashes after i want to delete a Browser Scene
try deleting your scene then delete all of your game capture browsers and stuff and start freash that may help
hello, can i make overlay to see only to me?
no
you will have to add your overlay to your stream, which will show the overlay on your stream
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
What do you want to use a private overlay for exactly?
chat
Do you use OBS studios with our plugin OBS.Live?
yes
sure, what exactly?
just of the screen while you have it open
also i cant see the chat overlay on my own
im new to streaming so i dont know if it should be like that
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?
I'd advise to use your phone or anything for chat, since its not possible to show chat only on streamers side
okat thank you, is it possible to me to see overlay?
or it is like you never see overlays
you will only see a overlay when you have obs studios open
so when im in game theres no way i see overlay?
thank you very much, you helped me much
No worries, sorry I couldn't help you fix the problem
i'd just advise to get a cheap second monitor for it
how do I add the overlays from StreamElements dashboard to obs.live?
@river tendon 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, thanks I'll try that
@kindred fox Umm my OBS works again, also with OBS LIVE, but I had to set up my PC again
absolutely weird
Like reinstalled windows from scratch?
ye i had to reinstall windows
ok, new problem. OBS.Live isn't capturing my game.
can someone help me understand why when I got to show music videos from the requests live on the screen it echos?
Hello, I am having trouble with putting the labels as I have done it correctly following the video but it is not showing near the 'latest follower; where i placed it and i am sure it is not overlapped or anything. on the right side it shows that i do have followers but it is not showing up. Please I really need your help this is making me go insane.
Is it possible to have the auto-tweet message send what game we're playing? 🤔 Like by including {game}?
@sudden ingot i think there is something for it yhea, be sure to ask it in #dev-chat !
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
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.
@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.
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?
@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
@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)
Doesn't work media request, how fix it? Please help
@limber juniper thanks mate
@limber juniper , drat. Ok thanks.
@formal tundra I can DM you what I have that seems to work and you can compare it to what you got?
@limber juniper - oh that would be awesome. I could probably hack it together from that.
it was about to go into the "if I have time pile" 🙂
so im just setting things up today and ah where in obs can i test my alerts? or is the only way to do this in stream elements right now?
@wooden spindle You can test Alerts via the bell on the lower right corner of the Overlay Editor. Simply go to your Dashboard -> My Overlays -> Pencil/edit button on the overlay. Make sure the "Show Emulated events on stream" option is on to see the alert in OBS/Xsplit https://streamable.com/h6qgy
Hi! Is it possible to have MEDIA REQUEST as a separate audio mixer so the volume is different for me and chat?
@hollow lichen i did what you ask by using GC from Media Request 😛
heelo.. does recording while streaming use same resources or will impact some more fps in obs.live??
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.
@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"
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
the QR code to enable remote control app
We don't have a remote control app, either.

No, OBS.Live is a plugin for OBS Studio, not its own version.
also OBS 19? 
^
And that's why Nethyr gets paid the big bucks
It's the date the build was made.
yes, and we a hoodie
2019/12/17
So it was made on my b-day! 😮
Along with the street he grew up on, name of his first pet, and mother's maiden name.

High school mascot, first car model...
at least i know your real name 😮

Still having the issue with the "This video is not available in your country." Media Request widget. Works fine in dashboard in browser. I have link to current uploaded log.
The link is https://obsproject.com/logs/iu7P30jV5Qx7WI0z
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.
@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 😦
@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.
@muted shuttle Welcome to the helpdesk! Please let us know how we can assist you today and a support volunteer or staff member will assist you as soon as they are available. Thank you for your patience.
Hello, I am having trouble with putting the labels as I have done it correctly following the video but it is not showing near the 'latest follower; where i placed it and i am sure it is not overlapped or anything. on the right side it shows that i do have followers but it is not showing up. Please I really need your help this is making me go insane.
@muted shuttle Please connect your streaming account (Twitch, YouTube, or Facebook) with Discord by going to ⚙ Settings and then Connections here in Discord. https://streamable.com/eg92w
What is this connection for?
So we don't have to ask you for your channel username.
Its HeyPersii
You don't seem to have added the widgets to your overlay that'd actually display the data.
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
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.
Can you save your overlay first so I can see the changes you've made?
sure
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.
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
Thanks.
Fixed my issue somehow by setting up bot and tips.
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.
How do I determine how big the backup is?
Well, let's look at this.
@autumn umbra 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.
Can I send link in dm?
Sending it here is fine, there's no sensitive information included in it.
Unless you've titled scenes or sources after personal information, which would be a bit odd.
Well. I can honestly say I've never seen 313 lines worth of scene and source information until now. 

Not sure if this is where I'm supposed to ask this, but I'm looking for help with the alert box.
@winter pulsar Welcome to the helpdesk! Please let us know how we can assist you today and a support volunteer or staff member will assist you as soon as they are available. Thank you for your patience.
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.
Text settings>Advanced, play with the margins.
Awesome, thanks @tulip hamlet
@tulip hamlet if there's anything else you need from me, please let me know
It definitely looks like you just have too much.
too much what? i dont understand - does the backup also backup video files from the vlc video element?
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.
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.
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.
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
Yes, but we're also not OBS.
@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.
but it's an obs plugin
-again just be nice for both users and staff to know what is being backed up. 👍
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.
Heey, someone now how fix it?

@tropic hull Streamelements on top of OBS -> Logout -> login
Thank you
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?
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?
@tropic portal So the issue is...missing alert?
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
And nothing in the revenue history?
Nope nothing in revenue history
What about the twitch revenue history?
if its not there, then they tipped you another way
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
It actually did redirect to the twitch link
this means you've set a redirect within the mixer panel.
What does that mean? I don’t even have a panel yet 😅 I just have a link
When i hover over the link i see the link leading to the non-numeric one.
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!
is there a problem with kappagen? The fountains are being cut off and are not in the middle. I can't correct it
Hey Guys, Im streaming from an event and my overlay is not working. I copied it from the link on SE and all the alerts work in browser but not in my obs:/ what could be wrong?
Please @ me if you have any ideas to help, so I can see
@rare hinge Try right click on the browser source that has the URL of the overlay, and refresh it
Doesnt seem to work
I think my OBS doesnt have an internet connection even tho my PC does, could that be it?
settings > advanced
scroll down to sources and disable hardware accel
i did, doesnt work
restart obs as admin
should give it a kick
can you screenshot the properties for your browser source and also upload a log here
@rare hinge Please post a link to your current log file.
In OBS select Help > Log Files > Upload Current Log File.
Copy the URL and paste it here.
no worries
set width to 1920 and height to 1080
click apply, you may need to refresh the cache after
np 👍
Hey, my chat module is on the fritz again. Has anyone else experienced the issue where the chat just wont stay in Dark Mode? I reported this a while ago and only reinstalling OBS in its entirety solved it - but now its back like the Terminator.
@finite crystal 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
Thanks, that worked out. I hope i remember this for the next time it happens
Ayuda
I don't get it. Media request sounds louder than my games to me but super quiet to my viewers
@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 😄
I know we can select multiple sources like cam+overlay but is there a way to zoom multiple sources at the same time? Like im going to select my cam+ the overlay and I want to zoom both of them at the same time 
I remember doing that a while ago
i cant control anyting in streamelements its blank on the side bar how do i fix
hey there
i need help with switching from streaming on yt to switching to mixer
i changed the stream key and it should be streaming to mixer i added the mixer ftl but when i hit the start streaming it streams to youtube for me what shoul;d i do ?
Streamelements on top of OBS -> Logout -> login
o for the love of god thank you

I accidentally made my widow a smaller size and I dont know how to put it back please help 🙃
AH figured it out
@quasi snow by volume bar do you mean the windows volume mixer?
I only have two sources. Desktop Audio where OBS and the videogame come through and my mic.
cannot get my graphics driver to pop up in Output, was working fine a day ago, Ive upgraded my graphics drivers...any advice?
Can OBS stream to two different sites at the same time??
so everytime I startup obs live I have to do the media request tour, is there a way to make that not happen?
for instance youtube + twitch at the same time?
nope, you will need to use something like restream
ok cool. thanks
hello

i have an problem with obs live. when i will put in my camera it is not shown
trying moving the sources (up or down) maybe other source is blockin
no the camera is on the top
trying delete it and adding again?
i tried this.
Did you tried using the webcam in a different program like discord, skype etc
no
Try it, if its not working there either try reinstalling the drivers
what webcam?
razer kiyo
and at obs live the camera is shown in the settings but in the preview is a black screen
Do you have Razer Synapse installed?
yes
Go into Synapse >> Broadcaster >> Disable Preview
so everytime I startup obs live I have to do the media request tour, is there a way to make that not happen?
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!!!!!
now i know .. Bad Synapse bad!
il done this and now my camera is off
but i think the same happen with every webcam, cause if i use the logitech software dont let other software use it..
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
thanks bro you are my hero it still works
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
so everytime I startup obs live I have to do the media request tour, is there a way to make that not happen?
Do you actually click the button or are you clicking "Launch Media Request" under the tour button?
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
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)
540p60 at 2000kbps can be done for a fairly smooth quality
It ain’t great, but it ain’t terrible
I uninstalled obs studio but SE OBS is just stuck on this https://gyazo.com/5d04601129b375e2e7803f059a958992
You need to uninstall OBS.Live before uninstalling OBS Studio.
RenziitoToday at 12:39 PM
@kindred fable trying unninstall the OBS Studio first
uh
nonetheless, I did try to uninstall live first and it was still stuck on this. Uninstalling studio was fine
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.
@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.

having problems where the alerts i made on stream elements where they dont pop on obs
@peak saddle I canot give you any more info than the analysis link with this line has in it.

i did all that and still not showing on obs
can i use alerts from streamelements into streamlabs obs ?
Have you added the overlay as browser source with the correct resolution?
Is the alert coming up in the editor @gloomy ivy
@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.
hold up i didnt know about the res
@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
i feel dumb lol but thank you @odd kraken
if i use streamelements and obs live i would get notification on livestream about new subs ?
If you set it up correctly, yes.
@steel blade Many thanks for that. It's working completely fine now! Have a nice day.
um streamelements still makes me do the tutorial for media request when I open obs live any solution to stop this from happening?
@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
Hey! Theres usually tabs on the site for me to filter through, but for some reason none of them are showing up OR are able to be clicked. Is this a known issue? Are others still experiencing this? Am I doing anything wrong?
im trying to understand why i keep getting this "encoder start error" all the time. I never used to get it. now i get it constantly. some times with in 20 minutes. some times 1.5 hours. i talked to someone on here a few days ago about it, and he said to disable "psycho visual tuning" and set it to CBR. I did that and no change. any other ideas? https://obsproject.com/logs/niMN6OGVJt_TaaIk
can someone help me out? i added my streamelement alerts
but when i add a game capture source and put it on the back the alerts are over it with a black screen under it

i accidentally got rid of my chat in my obs screen and now it shows my creator dashboard instead. any help?
is it as a separate window?
close the window and then re add it StreamElements >> chat
Like I could watch another stream in it
^ not sure if it will help btw
tried that and it just reopens the same thing
what exactly did you do to cause this?
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
so the only fix "I" know of is restarting obs
i will try that i suppose
alternatively you can just bringup the out on chrome
how do i restart obs
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
I need help with scene transitions. I have a transition but its saved as png because there is transparency to make it like slide over the screen.
Webm is the recommended file for transitions.
@spiral elk The problem is happening even when not streaming. Just having OBS open, the feed from the source is chjoppy. I dont think that will give me a url for help desk. There has to be something I can do.
@cobalt surge For the best OBS support, please join their Official Discord @ discord.gg/obsproject
hello
@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?
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
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
what bitrate you trying to stream at?
Going off your broadband above, it would be really hard to push over 2K / 2.5K
stream output?
Set it
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
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
watching tv will mostly affect download speed, only a small dip in upload load
Hmm yea true I think imma just upgrade my internet package hopefully that fixed it
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
its not new 
oof
Yoo I can’t find obslive for MacBook, can Anyone help me?

Does someone knows when obslive is comming out for Mac? Or isnt that a thing?

you can upvote the idea here tho: https://streamelements.helprace.com/i997-obs-live-support-for-mac
@fathom mango open your file explorer and type in this: %appdata%\obs-studio\basic
should look like this:
afterwards the profile and scene folder - take them and move them somewhere else
and try to start OBS again
May bad
Go to %appdata%\obs-studio\plugin_config\obs-browser
and dete blob_storage cache code cache local storage
Nothing is there
The Overlay Editor takes very long to load
@rugged quail Streamelements on top of OBS -> Logout -> login
Alright
@fathom mango So when you go to here: %appdata%\obs-studio\plugin_config\obs-browser are there folders and files?
Yo idk why but when i stream its dropping frames. My upload speed is 9,8 Mbit/s and i have bitrate 5800 kb/s
@wide sedge 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.
try lowering the bitrate
also if you can provide us a log, we can show you what is up exactly 😄
i need help with my client
ive connectd my twitch to stream
but whenever im giving start streaming
its going to stream to youtube and the window is getting hanged t here
@grizzled jetty Streamelements on top of OBS -> Logout -> login
Take a look at the analysis there is a link with helpful tips.
And is good x264 encoder or h264?
@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.
Test, test, and test again. We are happy to offer suggestions for any issues you may be having, but not a list of settings.
Okey, thanks.
Mic was working fine yesterday and now today i cant get mic or head set mic to work. as far as i know nothing was changed.
any ideas?
@quiet portal For the best OBS support, please join their Official Discord @ discord.gg/obsproject
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
Having an issue with the store redemption widget. It seems like once someone redeems something, the alert just stays up on the screen, regardless of the duration I have listed. Advice?
it's a known bug, you'll need to refresh scene for it to disappear, sorry
does 3D SUBSCRIBER ALERTBOX widget supported by youtube?
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
@floral lantern you can disable the video over at the website if needed https://streamelements.com/dashboard/mediarequest/general
im going to ask around for you both @low wolf and @candid steppe
@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.
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 
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 😄
@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.
we're investigating the log as we speak
ok thank you
@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
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?
them*
which things?
if they're folders that's probably fine....it's mostly the files that are inside Temp
there is discord crashes nbidia corporation streamlabs obs crashes and some weird number ones
yeah you can skip those
mostly those are what we're looking for
everything that isn't a folder
let's start with those 😉
yes i got those
there is still a crash and now theres more stuff in the folder
is there a WPF folder inside that Temp folder?
a folder named WPF
nope
one second
yep
double voice when streaming
can anyone help? obs has desktop audio and turtle beach headset mic as input. when i view stream i can hear myself twice within seconds apart
I think thats because you are viewing your own stream
do you have your own stream muted?
im not on youtube when streaming just on obs and game
also audio is played through headphone
Hi
hey
so as I was saying
I'm a mixer streamer because of its tech and its community
I can tell you more if you're intersted, but first
let's handle your settings
Hmm okey
I need to download authy
you can login afterwards
set video bitrate to 4500
Ok
then go to video
and set FPS to 30
