shy mountain
#

and kill all OBS related tasks

woeful coyote
#

yes I did that and it will not let me close it

shy mountain
#

restart PC

#

and use the installer

woeful coyote
#

I have uninstalled both obs and streamelements twice already and it still asked me to update after install

shy mountain
#

Update OBS Studio to 25.0.1

#

and then run our Installer

#

don't use the updater

woeful coyote
#

ok will try again

shy mountain
#

if our installer gives you "cannot modify X file"

#

just restart your PC

#

and run the installer

woeful coyote
#

Thanks that helped, what it was trying to do is update in the wrong order lol

Hi! the activity feed is not showing the account that I´m currently using, it´s using another one, how can I change it? (I´ve already changed the account in the settings in ObsLive)

Hello I need help with the OBS because I streamed yesterday but many said my game is too loud and I don't sound good just idk why and other things write me private thank you in advance

rugged quail

Don't really need help, a little confused though. For some reason it just pulled up a window telling me that OBS needed to update, and showed the changelogs. I cliked update, then gave me a prompt telling me to click yes or no, im pretty sure i clicked no, (by accident) and OBS is saying there is no update needed.

fierce light
#

how do i change my stream name?

crisp marten
#

Is there a way to stop the Media Request dock from asking me to take a tour?

velvet aurora
#

Hello, I need help someone knows how to create the buttons for Ad ? I guess is a docas ?

edgy ibex
#

Well @velvet aurora If you have the streamdeck in the software you can add to run a ad.

astral grail
#

how come i can only have my stream information on my original profile for obs.live?

prisma torrent
#

quick question. Since I don't have any extra monitors to hook my laptop up to I've been using my actual TV by connecting the two by an HDMI cable. I noticed last night that, for whatever reason, when I had my laptop connected to my TV by HDMI cable it severely impacted the FPS, frames missed and skipped frames.
anyone know if there's a reason for that or if I'm completely wrong and don't know what I'm talking about and it was something else entirely?

celest pike
#

So I just tried updating and everything just shit the bed

#

now OBSlive wont uninstall

sinful rover
#

hello im completely new to the se obs live game and added some custom alert sounds and edited the old alert i got. so when i try the alert onSE it works but in the stream wont come any alert. can someone help me? thanks

rugged quail
#

Show details so you can have details about issue @celest pike

brittle ermine
#

i get a follower alert when some one refollows my channel, this is only once per stream

#

@sinful rover did you add it per browser source?

sinful rover
#

yes @brittle ermine

brittle ermine
#

did you saved it?

sinful rover
#

yes i clickes save several times

fathom cobalt
#

@celest pike is this downloaded from website?

celest pike
#

yes

rugged quail
#

Ran as admin ?

celest pike
#

I updated OBS and OBS live qnd when i tried updating OBS live i got an error now it wont work, and it wont uninstall so i can re-install

fathom cobalt
#

@celest pike You can provide screenshot of your task manager?

brittle ermine
#

@sinful rover are those "real" alert like if a real person follows you? or are those the test alerts from the website?

sinful rover
#

those are test alerts, but it appeared on my overlay for "last follower" on stream but the alert itself doesnt appears...

#

likle "Kossi just followed"

celest pike
#

I redownloaded and re-wrote the files. its working now

#

this time the updats ran flawlessly

timid glade
#

Im having an encoder error and everything else crashs like OBS (games, google, discord)

wispy tinsel
#

quick question, can I install the obs.live on the new obs 25.0 version?

open shore
#

I had the same issue and ended up doing a clean install of both obs and obs.live

timid glade
#

thx

eternal oxide
#

So i am trying to set up media request on obs.live, I skipped the tour back when i first downloaded and now i can't get the widget/overlay on my obs setup, Where can i find the download for the overlay or how can i get it on there?

kindred fox
#

add the widget in the overlay editor

#

then inside OBS.Live you can add the Media Request dock by clicking StreamElements in the Menu >> Media Request

eternal oxide
#

awesome, thank you so much

small crane
#

Hello. I'm trying to update obs.live but it keeps crashing. I got to update it before the crash, but when I did, this message pops up.

mellow crater
eternal oxide
#

Hi I'm back, I got media request set up and everything on obs now but when I click "Show on stream" the audio is playing twice almost like an echo. I can't figure out where the issue is as it works fine until I press "show on stream" any tips?

mellow crater
#

@eternal oxide your not hearing it from obslive and the actual stream are you?

eternal oxide
#

No it's repeating twice through obs

mellow crater
#

hmm,, not sure

static shadow
#

so streamelements won't open anymore in edge. It just pulls up a blank page, and My other browsers are already linked to other family member's streams

rugged quail
#

@static shadow Please use Chrome as the website is more optimised for Chromium browsers such as Brave and Chrome

static shadow
#

I just said it's linked to someone else

mellow crater
kindred fox
#

@static shadow you can sign out and sign back in using a different browser

#

@mellow crater reinstall your gpu drivers over the top

mellow crater
#

ok

#

@eternal oxide im getting the same issue now 😐

#

wait

#

do you have the overlay editor open @eternal oxide - if so close it

eternal oxide
#

That's what my thought was too but i couldn't find it open anywhere, i closed the app multiple times and reopened it and it still kept happening too

mellow crater
#

hmmmm....

kindred fox
#

Make sure your browser sources are all set to “shut down when inactive”

eternal oxide
#

I figured it out! If you click "Control audio via obs" it fixes it. It creates a seperate audio track that seems to fix the echo.

kindred fox
#

That means your overlays are active in other scenes

wispy tinsel
#

@kindred fox sorry for the tag but only got a quick question.
Do you know if obs.live runs on the new 25.0 obs?

heavy oak
#

still having issues with this countdown widget, already refreshed it and remade it but the font still isn't showing correctly

kindred fox
#

I will, but it isn’t recommended yet

heavy oak
kindred fox
#

The version of OBS.Live on OBS Studio 24 is stable

wispy tinsel
#

ok, thanks 🙂

#

@heavy oak have you pressed save in the editor?

heavy oak
#

yeah that's the obvious question but yes i did

#

the screenshot i have is from the link of the source

wispy tinsel
#

obvious, but easy to forget x)

heavy oak
#

doesn't hurt to make sure right

wispy tinsel
#

what font is it?

heavy oak
#

lemon

#

i even thought it had to be installed on my pc and not only already selectable from the editor

#

but turns out i had it installed too

wispy tinsel
#

so.. for me, the image from your obs is the font Lemon in my editor

heavy oak
#

wait what? huh that's strange

kindred fox
#

enable custom font

heavy oak
#

did, saved and refreshed but still the same issue

wispy tinsel
heavy oak
#

how do i check which font is this then lmao

#

that's an interesting problem

#

ok it's a bigger issue with me

#

because i changed the font and nothing matches

wispy tinsel
#

so the font won't change?

heavy oak
#

it changes, but on obs it changes to yet again a different font

#

some fonts i'm trying here work sometimes, but not all the time too

#

if i refresh the source it loses track of what i choose

#

and sometimes without refreshing that same font doesn't work

#

so i don't know the pattern here

wispy tinsel
#

hm.. I scrolled thru all google font, could not find anyone similar to the one you want :/

kindred fox
#

my lemon looks nothing like that

#

did the font name change?

heavy oak
#

i don't know

#

i assume it's a issue on my end

wispy tinsel
#

@kindred fox like my lemon or his?

kindred fox
#

hoovR

heavy oak
#

but why is the name different to begin with

kindred fox
#

my lemon looks fat and ugly like the one in the screenshot, it looks nothing like the font you're trying to use

heavy oak
#

yeah i imagined that was the case when @wispy tinsel told the same thing

kindred fox
#

That's awkward now

#

idk how to resolve two different fonts with the same name

heavy oak
#

yeah i don't think that's an issue that we can resolve here

#

it's something for the dev team

#

and i wouldn't know what to report to them since i just now know that's a thing

wispy tinsel
heavy oak
#

yup, exactly this one

#

that's what shows up for me whenever i choose lemon on the editor

wispy tinsel
#

ok, I will se if I can repliucate

#

so, installing the font on my pc and restarting my browser I got the same font in the editor

heavy oak
#

hm, i did that before but it didn't work

wispy tinsel
#

still have the same old font in obs...

#

Looking into if you can add custom css to change it

nimble wharf
#

Noob question here but in OBS.live how do i get the mixer activity feed up? I know wherte it should be but i dont see it as an option under view<docs

wispy tinsel
#

have you checked under the tab StreamElements?

kindred fox
#

@nimble wharf click streamelements in the menu >> log out >> log in with mixer

wispy tinsel
#

@heavy oak I'm unable to find a work around.. you will have to change font to one on https://fonts.google.com/ I believe they are supported 🙂

heavy oak
#

hey thanks for the help

#

i'm sure i'll figure it out

dawn olive
#

not sure if this is the right tab for this, but my "in game" overlay isn't working? everything else is, but not that one. I've refreshed the cache, refreshed the page in OBS, redone the link in OBS, still nothing

azure sundial
#

anyone know where to find the url for a browser source for my chat to appear in obs?

sour wasp
#

Hello, for some reason when I stream and use media request to play something and click "show on stream" I get a duplicate of the sound being played from the media request.

late furnace
#

do you have the browser open while obs is open?

sour wasp
#

@late furnace No it was not open while this occured

late furnace
#

prolly have to shut down the source when not visible

sour wasp
#

you know what I have 2 mediashare sources

#

That's why one on a different scene

late furnace
#

we need to shut down the source when not visible or both will play

sour wasp
#

Sounds good

late furnace
#

try this

mellow crater
sour wasp
#

@late furnace Works perfectly, thank you!

late furnace

coarse patio
#

hello i am having a issue

#

can anyone help

#

im recording gameplay

kindred fox
#

What seems to be the issue

coarse patio
#

but when i re watch the clip its choppy

#

i checked all my recording settings and everything should be ok

#

but i cant figure it out

kindred fox
#

Are you recording to an ssd or a hard drive?

coarse patio
#

just recording on my PC

#

it has both ssd and hdd

kindred fox
#

Where are your recordings saved? The ssd or the hdd?

#

And can you screenshot your recording settings in obs?

coarse patio
#

can i just open screen sharing with you

#

and you can see all of it

kindred fox
#

Nope. Screenshots are fine

steel bladeBOT
coarse patio
#

there it is

kindred fox
#

Uncheck psycho-visual tuning

#

That’s probably the issue

coarse patio
#

should that be off during streaming as well

kindred fox
#

Yep

#

Always turn it off

coarse patio
#

and look ahead should stay on

kindred fox
#

Idk why it’s even an option

#

Yeah look ahead is fine

#

But pvt is garbage

coarse patio
#

its still doing it

#

i dont know what to do at this point

#

i cant find any other issues

rugged quail
#

Hey Guys, So i got the game display to work on stream labs, but on steamelements, it shows the box its red border, but nothing inside. its working for streamlabs but not this.

#

hey guys, i'm a hll of a noob on this stuff, so is there any way that the music on media request is listenable on the stream and not for me?

@proper swift Custom bot name requirements

  • StreamElements bot modded and in chat
  • Active overlay with alerts
  • StreamElements tipping page in the panels below the stream (!panels)
  • OBS.Live or Ground Control open
  • Create a twitch account for the name you want to use or run the bot under your own name
  • Custom bot name doesn't work on Mac
    @steel blade I have done these, but going to Ground Control -> Settings there is nothing there except Keybindings/Other
steel bladeBOT
#

@lost ginkgo Due to a recent change from Twitch API, these features are affected by the change:

  • Ground Control does not have Custom Bot Name
  • Subscriber count will count the Channel and any other permanent sub you may have (+1 or +2 or +3 on top).
    We are working on fixing both issues, but there is no ETA.
    OBS.Live still has Custom Bot name working fine in it.

@kindred fox are you available?

#

why are the browser sources not working?!

prisma quail
#

So I just switched over to stream elements from streamlabs. I am using obs.live and it keeps dropping to a 0 bitrate every few minutes. I am using the exact same settings as I did with streamlabs

silk cipher
#

they are not the same program so not the same settings

prisma quail
#

I used the auto-configuration tool and it gave me the same issue

silk cipher
#

<@&382267076632379392>

#

can we get some help please?

#

im creating sources but they are not showing up on the list.

#

and overlays are not showing

honest echo
#

@silk cipher MAC or Windows?

silk cipher
#

windows

#

and did both of the updates it wanted

honest echo
silk cipher
#

duh.

#

im saying when i create sources they are not showin on the list

honest echo
#

i see

silk cipher
#

and the browser sources i have for my overlay are not showing up completely

honest echo
#

did you get the hotfix?

#

25.0.1?

#

on Obs Menu > Help > Check for Updates

silk cipher
#

it says there are none

#

it had me update obs and SE

prisma quail
#

I think I fixed my issue, I'll let you know later

#

Necermind. Lol

honest echo
#

and no problems with the browser sources

#

my obs.live is 20.3.8.603 have you try to close it and open it again?

silk cipher
#

do you have a link for the update?

#

ive been closing it and opening it

#

that is how i got my sources to finally show up that i was adding

#

im going to obs discord...

prisma quail
#

I think my issue is my internet now, I have never had issues before with it but all of a sudden.

kindred fox
#

Yeah ISPs are struggling everywhere

prisma quail
#

due to everyone being home I'm assuming

kindred fox
#

The best way to test your connection to twitch is using the twitch tool

prisma quail
#

I am switching to fiber monday though, think that will help since it's a direct line?

kindred fox
#

Should

prisma quail
silk cipher
#

@kindred fox do you know why SE overlays are not working?

prisma quail
#

Here is the test

silk cipher
#

well crapp

jade warren
#

Hello Guys! How do i add animated overlay from streamelements to my OBS? HELP PLS ❤️

steel bladeBOT
#

@jade warren 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

silk cipher
#

overlay browers arent working,....

jade warren
#

same....

prisma quail
#

Mine works

jade warren
#

Animated>

#

?

silk cipher
#

yups

jade warren
#

static ones working fine

#

but animated arent

prisma quail
#

No, sorry I don't use animated

#

do you have custom made ones?

jade warren
#

nope

prisma quail
#

The honestly I would just use static for now until it can be fixed

honest echo
#

@silk cipher weird i have animated ones and work fine

silk cipher
prisma quail
#

But I'm not support so don't listen to me lol

silk cipher
#

this works but not in obs

honest echo
#

maybe check the dimenstions

steel bladeBOT
silk cipher
honest echo
#

Yeah thath littlebird

prisma quail
#

change it to 1920 by 1080

silk cipher
#

i always do crl f and it fits fine

#

ITS NOT SHOWING UP AT ALL

#

is my issue

honest echo
#

please check that put 1920 and 1080

steel bladeBOT
#

@silk cipher 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

shut up bot

wary dew
#

the bot does not respond out of itself 😛

prisma quail
#

Just put 1920 x 1080 just to see what it does

silk cipher
#

i never had issues with my overlays. everytime there is an update it fucks my shit up and have to redo everything

honest echo
#

@silk cipher we are just trying to help, i understand that maybe you could fell fustrated, but try to stay calm

#

and try to do what we said

@wary dew give it more bnankies

forest grove
#

My OBS keeps saying it's missing a "Stream URL" in the settings, but there isn't even an option to add one?

kindred fox
#

@forest grove obs settings -> stream > disconnect > connect

forest grove
#

I've already tried disconnecting/reconnecting my Twitch about twice now but still nothing

kindred fox
#

Inside obs settings?

forest grove
#

Yeah

kindred fox
#

Screenshot it for me

forest grove
kindred fox
#

Yep dats it

forest grove
#

Yeah I did that about twice

#

Nothing

steel bladeBOT
#

@forest grove 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
kindred fox
#

Do this ^^^

#

Then try again

#

@silk cipher no idea why overlays aren’t loading. What version of obs do you have running?

forest grove
#

That didn't work

kindred fox
#

Which version of obs are you running?

forest grove
#

25.0.1

kindred fox
#

Asking internally

forest grove
kindred fox
#

Can you click streamelements in the menu bar, log out, then disconnect via obs settings, then reconnect via obs, then log in via streamelements menu and test again?

forest grove
#

So Disconnect both and reconnect both?

#

Alright, that worked, tyty rooBless

kindred fox
#

👍

rugged quail
#

So my stream elements doesnt want to capture my desktop audio all of a sudden any ideas what could be wrong ?

cloud niche
#

It's happening to multiple files in the download. I even restarted my PC and it's still doing it... This is the second time some "update" goes wrong.

cloud niche
#

Is there anyone available to help? Or is this being worked on? The entire add-on is not showing up on OBS studio now.

sacred tangle
#

having the same problem

kindred fox
#

Updated to 25.0.1?

dusky copper
#

my preview panel broke with 25.0.1

cloud niche
#

Yes, OBS studio is updated to 25.0.1.

#

When I try to launch SE Obs.live, it prompts me to update that, and then I get a bunch of error messages in the download.

dusky copper
#

i'm seeing a lot of: signal_handler_connect: signal 'streamelements_update_settings' not found , in my logs

kindred fox
#

Obs.live is not currently updated for 25.0.1 yet. You should be able to download obs.live from streamelements.com/obslive and only install OBS.Live plug-in, not the OBS Studio part

#

It should work right now in 25.0.1 but ymmv

cloud niche
#

Did that just now, still getting the same errors.

sacred tangle
#

same

cosmic trench
#

I'm trying to test out media share and the media request panel claims that there is no media request widget in the overlay even though there is

kindred fox
#

And run the full installer with obs studio which should revert it to 24.0.3

cosmic trench
#

You're talking to Gumpita not me right

cloud niche
dusky copper
#

@kindred fox I tried reinstalling just the plugin, unfortunately my preview panel is still broken

#

which is odd, because the fullscreen projector preview works fine

kindred fox
#

@cloud niche reboot and run uninstaller again

sacred tangle
#

same problem

kindred fox
#

@cosmic trench reload your overlay

cosmic trench
#

How do I do that?

kindred fox
#

@sacred tangle same thing, restart, uninstall obs.live then obs studio

sacred tangle
#

yeah thats what i tried

kindred fox
#

@cosmic trench double-click your browser source in the source list >> scroll down and click refresh cache

cloud niche
#

@kindred fox Same message pops up, won't let me uninstall.

high ferry
#

OBS doesent work it wont capture my youtube window and also there isnt a button to auto start recording. Can some1 help me?

#

@Orsona

#

@kindred fox

dusky copper
#

anything I can do about this:

#

signal_handler_connect: signal 'streamelements_update_settings' not found

cosmic trench
#

@kindred fox thank you

kindred fox
#

I'm going to ask internally about the errors you are seeing

high ferry
#

orsuna can you help me plox 😦

#

it wont capture my youtube window and also is there a button I can press to auto start and stop recording?

cloud niche
#

Idk how, but it fixed itself. I no longer get the pop up to update OBS.Live when I launch it, and the add-on is back lol What a roller coaster.

Thank you @kindred fox, I appreciate it. ❤️

high ferry
#

Why you ignore me :/

kindred fox
#

there is not a button you can push unless you have a streamdeck. The only option is to create a "hotkey" which starts/stops recording. With regards to the window capture, are you using Window Capture and have hardware acceleration disabled in your browser?

high ferry
#

hardware acceleration?

sacred tangle
#

@cloud niche it just started working randomly?

kindred fox
#

use Google Chrome, go to settings > scroll down and click "Advanced" >> scroll down and disable hardware acceleration

cloud niche
#

Yep. I tried uninstalling the add-on multiple times, wouldn't work. I tried downloading it again anyway, and this time it worked just fine.

#

OBS is stupid, I did the recording and stopped, and went to see the recordings, but it didnt show anything and didnt even record it. Seriously what the crap. <@&382267076632379392>

Is there a way to stop the Media Request dock from asking me to take a tour?

honest echo
#

what exactly happen? @hearty idol

hearty idol
#

Alright, so I was going live, and none of my chat popped up which was odd. I also could not see any of my alerts.

#

I know it was live I checked on youtube.

#

Its asking me to sign in to Twitch and all kind of stuff.

#

I also delted the chat section and dont know how to get that back.

honest echo
#

ok, try this . StreamElements menu > Log out, and then log back in

tired mountain
#

Looking for some help here on the most recent update... OBS continues to crash after update. Non of my "Source" overlays will show up.

hearty idol
#

Alright let me try,.

honest echo
#

@tired mountain uninstall obs and then install again please

tired mountain
#

i will give it a shot.. @honest echo

#

@honest echo It worked. Thanks bro.

@tired mountain on obs click on remove obs.live and the unistall obs

tired mountain
#

@honest echo Stream elements is no longer listed in on the OBS platform... should i try to uninstall obs seperate from OBS live?

#

OBS studio..

#

hey, so i have an issue with obs, it wont let me stream to twitch despite that being my only connected account, and whenever i press "start streaming" it automatically comes up with the youtube details and i just wanna stream to twitch 😢

tired mountain
#

logout, and log back in using twitch credentuals

#

@vale dove

vale dove
#

honest echo
#

Yes yeahtoast

slender lintel
#

I try to start streaming and it tells me that my output has failed, although all of my drivers are up to date I believe

#

It also says that My twitch authentication has failed/it can't get token from the remote?

vale dove
#

it worked! thanks so much 🙂

tired mountain
#

NP @vale dove

honest echo
#

@slender lintel logout, and log back in

tired mountain
#

@honest echo No luck. i Uninstalled OBS, then proceeded to try to uninstall OBS Live. and im back to the same error from my image above

slender lintel
#

Ok the token is fixed, but it still states my output failed?

#

nevermind, the token error is back up

tired mountain
#

@honest echo OBS had been completely uninstalled from my PC. now im just left with stream elements OBS live, but it fails to uninstall

crisp marten
#

@honest echo Is there a way to stop the Media Request dock from asking me to take a tour?

honest echo
#

@tired mountain try to install it anyway

tired mountain
#

@honest echo i'll give it a shot

slender lintel
#

I have no clue how to fix the output failer, and logging out and back in, I placed in my token, verified it, and then it stated that there is still failure to authenticate

#

failure*

tired mountain
#

@slender lintel what is your output?

#

@honest echo seems to have got my overlay back upp. will test for stability

slender lintel
#

just my speakers

tired mountain
#

are you trying to output sound to speakers? within OBS? @slender lintel

honest echo
slender lintel
#

It just tells me my output failed, I don't honestly know where to look to fix the problem

tired mountain
#

not to overstep the team here.. Are you just trying to get audio to work to your speakers @slender lintel ?

kindred fox
#

@slender lintel can you do me a favor and click streamelements > log out > then go into obs settings >> stream > disconnect >> connect >> then click streamelements >> log in?

#

In that order?

crisp marten
#

@kindred fox Is there a way to stop the Media Request dock from asking me to take a tour?

kindred fox
#

Unsure

#

I don’t use it, so I’m unfamiliar with it

#

Have you taken the tour?

crisp marten
#

You press it. It takes you into it. And then when you close OBS and reopen it. Does the same.

kindred fox
#

@crisp marten can you right-click the shortcut and select Run as Administrator, then take the tour, close OBS.Live, then re-launch as Administrator and see if it works?

crisp marten
#

I'll do that when I get back.

shy mountain
#

Make sure you actually finish the tour

kindred fox
crisp marten
#

How do I actually finish it? Seeing as all it does is take me into the player. There is nothing else. I've even used it.

Make sure you install OBS Studio

And if you navigate to C:/Program Files/obs-studio

hey, since a few days (since march 11th), I have massive problems with dropped frames while streaming/recording. OBS tells me the encoder is overloaded, I should change/lower streaming settings etc. Really frustrating, every workaround from the web doesn't have much of an impact on the situation 😦

#

using software encoder or switching to hardware (amd gpu) doesnt change the situation anyways.

steel bladeBOT
#

@upper osprey 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.

upper osprey
steel bladeBOT
#

@upper osprey 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+)

Hey, i gonna try a capture card with my 2nd pc, is there a way to show only a game capture?

steel bladeBOT
shy mountain
#

@upper osprey I believe there was a Windows update betweehn 9th march and today, so that can affect stream settings a lot

upper osprey
#

Yeah, I've read about that several times now. I've also deinstalled the last windows update, that might have inflicted my problems - but it had not that much of an positive effect on my system. Yesterday I've changed some main parts of my system (new cpu, graphics and mainboard and new windows installation) - it halso has no effect on that. So something must be wrong with windows or obs 😉

shy mountain
#

well, you can troubleshoot with the OBS guys via that discord invite link above 😉

Hey again so elgato hd60s+ is freezing after a few minutes the i have to unplug the usb and its working again for a few minutes what can i do so its not freezing again ?

You are better off asking there for help

@shy mountain I will do that, maybe they need that information for future updates. Thx again. Have a nice day 🙂

lavish pagoda
#

Hello 🙂 I have obslive + a streamdeck (+obslive's streamdeck plugin) and i don't understand the !kappagen and charge kappagen commands, it does nothing :/
I do have kappagen widget up and running on my overlay (works fine)
Any idea ?

shy mountain
#

The kappagen will trigger one explosion

#

if you multi-tap the charge button

#

it will charge up to 4 taps and provide an appropriate explosion

#

1 tap is a small explosion

#

4 is the biggest

lavish pagoda
#

thing is it doesn't :/

shy mountain
#

i just tried it on my obs and streamdeck

#

its working perfectly fine shrugg

lavish pagoda
#

:/

shy mountain
#

make sure when you check the button in the streamdeck software it says this:

#

restart OBS or refresh the browser source with the kappagen widget

#

and then try it

#

and i think you need the !kappagen chat command to be enabled

lavish pagoda
#

how do i enable that (the rest is fine)

shy mountain
#

enable what exactly?

lavish pagoda
#

the !kappagen command

shy mountain
#

and find "kappagen" and make sure its enabled

lavish pagoda
#

oh ok it's there !

#

I don't see the command in 'default command' tab, could it be beacause my commands are set in 'french' ? any way it's not realy important ^^
I gtg thanks for the heads up i ll retry later.

shy mountain
#

you've renamed it

fringe tangle
#

@shy mountain I did, I ended up just remaking all my scenes and that seems to have solved the issue

lavish pagoda
#

@shy mountain Ohh that's the one ! damm thanks you so much for figuring it out, much appreciated

fringe tangle
#

Is there a way to set up different transitions between scenes automatically?

kindred fox
#

Hire a production manager to switch scenes for you

kindred fox
#

OBS requires some sort of manual trigger to do about everything

I'm trying to reinstall OBS.Live since it bugging out my OBS, but when I try to uninstall it i keep getting "Installation Aborted, Setup was not completed successfully"

#

can anyone help?

#

(I have OBS studio installed)

fathom cobalt
#

@warped sequoia
Reasons the uninstaller might not work:

  • OBS Studio was uninstalled before OBS.Live
  • Missing OBS Studio
  • It might be uninstalled, so tell them to open OBS Studio - if the "Streamelements" menu on top is missing, its uninstalled
warped sequoia
#

I opened the OBS.live application file and it opens the regular OBS Studio, so it seems like it uninstalled somehow. But the OBS.live app, and all the obs-plugin files (also the obs.live uninstaller) is still lingering in my obs-studio and control panel programs. Is there anyway to get rid of them? @fathom cobalt

#

@hardy sail @shy mountain did you guys find a fix for that uninstall issue. It may.. be similar to mine

Can’t help you with streamlabs

#

Can help you with obs studio

rocky laurel
#

the version is said is for OBS Btw

kindred fox
#

@short tiger with your elgato?

#

@rocky laurel make sure your Nvidia drivers are up to date

#

Nvenc should be in obs settings >> output

@kindred fox after updating, I'll report back

@lavish cedar Same problem here. Still trying to solve it.

lavish cedar
#

@upper osprey I've lowered my encoder preset to Slower and I'm wondering if I need to do anything with my video bitrate?

upper osprey
#

Which bitrate do you use?

oak glacier
lavish cedar
#

My bitrate that I haven't touched was 6,000

upper osprey
#

But a good advice, lower your encoder settings more, because slower is one of the highest settings you can choose @lavish cedar

#

Bitrate is ok

lavish cedar
#

I popped it down to 5,400 and it didn't make a difference.

#

Not to flex but I have a i9 processer and a 2080 NVIDA Graphics card and ran everything on my GPU with no problems. I switch it to run off my CPU, lowered my encoder preset, lowered my bitrate and went from get 59.94 fps to about 30

#

@oak glacier I can't pretend like I know what I'm looking at with that link you sent ha

oak glacier
#

my computer isn't even getting hit hard like it says my CPU: 0.9%, run at a constant 60fps all the time just every time i start my stream literally crashes in a few minutes. I'm running a wired connection and my internet speed is 600mbps down and 20mbps up. I have never had problems before recently when i streamed before just started recently this last week or so

upper osprey
#

What helped me out a bit, was changing streaming (scaled) resolution from 1080 to 720p and I also lowered the resolution of Webcam. @lavish cedar

oak glacier
#

My specs arent shit either i have an i7-8700k, 16gb of 3200mhz ram, rtx 2080 so that shit should not be a problem

lavish cedar
#

So you had to downgrade and everything else went back to normal?

oak glacier
#

and im literally just streaming my desktop

#

bitrate at 5500 was at 6000 but i lowered it to see if it did anything but nope didnt do shit

lavish cedar
#

I doubt this would help but if I uninstall and reinstall OBS would that do anything?

oak glacier
#

idk why staff isnt answering tbh

upper osprey
#

I doubt this would help but if I uninstall and reinstall OBS would that do anything?
@lavish cedar dont think so. Yesterday i did a fresh install of Windows and OBS. Nothing changed

#

For you @lavish cedar if your OBS is still open you can go to Help -> Log Files -> upload last log file

#

and then you can also take it to the analyzer site I've posted before

#

maybe this will help you

#

but tbh I'm also a user with the encoder overload problem and not from the helpdesk people 😉

lavish cedar
#

This is hurting my soul lol

upper osprey
#

the rumours say, that maybe a windows update from last week causes all this problems.

#

I also took my problems over directly to the obs discord. But I doubt they really recognized it 😦

Its gotta be an internet problem because when my stream goes down my brother also gets kicked out of his destiny game he is currently in. But what confuses the shit outta me is that my spotify is fine and I can still google shit fine just stream dies, and discord dies sorta meaning I can still send messages but if I'm in a call they can't here me when my stream crashes

#

And I just talked to my internet support and they told me it was a fuckin hardware issue which doesnt make any sense at all

@spice cedar I did the update yesterday for streamelements OBS and now today OBS is telling me that my encoder is overloaded.
@lavish cedar more and more people are reporting this, seems like a possible issue with v25 and some windows features, but I am just assuming this. It runs fine here. Worst case , go back to v24.

#

Unless you really need vulkan capture or the new features.. etc.

shy lodge
#

i had issues with obs crashing with the latelest version. Tried everything that was recommended. My FPS would not run at 60 and OBS would crash. I uninstalled and redownloaded from website which is v24 and no issues.

tender python
#

In which case, the devs will always benefit having the logs as to why it's crashing or doing so

shy lodge
#

i did save logs where do i find them?

tender python
#

I think it's help > logs > view logs , doing this out the top of my head

#

HaggardxGaming#9366 more and more people are reporting this, seems like a possible issue with v25 and some windows features, but I am just assuming this. It runs fine here. Worst case , go back to v24.

@cinder hill

cinder hill
#

How do I revert to the last version without reinstalling?:

shy lodge
#

i sent logs last night and I did a crash report today

tender python
#

That's all you can do for now, wait on going (back) to v25 or any new (hot)fix untill they know whatsup.

#

@shy lodge I assume you went from v25 to v24. You just uninstalled and reinstalled v24, correct?

#

@cinder hill I don't know if this works, you can always try to run the v24 installer, but I'd recommend uninstalling regardless.

cinder hill
#

Aww man.

#

No,

#

I was hoping I could revert from 25 to 24, but I guess not?

shy lodge
#

@tender python Yeah I backed all my settings up. Uninstalled OBS elements and obs. Then I downleaded from the website which was v24. I reinstalled and declined the update

tender python
#

New features brings new risks, nothing much we can do about it (here) as this is an Obs issue in it's core, nothing much to do with SE.

#

If you're weary, take the Adobe approach: never install the latest release.

shy lodge
#

ok. I will just hold off on update for awhile until they correct it.

or mac approach. haha

tender python
#

Or windows features ayeeeeee

lavish cedar
#

@lavish cedar more and more people are reporting this, seems like a possible issue with v25 and some windows features, but I am just assuming this. It runs fine here. Worst case , go back to v24.
@tender python how do I go back to V24? Honestly probably a stupid question but I have no clue.

#

Seems like minibard's method seems to work out: backup all settings, uninstall OBS and SE live. Download v24 , install, decline update (s)

Hey guys, i installed windows on my mac and now the overlays seem to be working much better. I just cant seem to get the chat to work, and i dont know how to test it without starting the stream. pls halp

#

@ all the people here at helpdesk. The Encoder overload issues are gone, when switching back to obs 24.0.3. - thats finally the best way to solve the problem. Happy me 😄

warped sequoia
#

do you know if reverting the windows update helps? @upper osprey

upper osprey
#

which issue do you have? and which version of obs is installed? @warped sequoia

rugged quail
#

Can anyone here help me with my chat issue? The overlay works fine but the chat doesnt appear at all...

warped sequoia
#

@upper osprey 25.0.1

#

my issue is that my obs keeps crashing when it starts up

#

and when i try to uninstall obs.live it aborts before it finishes

upper osprey
#

have you had that crashes in older obs versions, too?

warped sequoia
#

nope, it only happened recently i think after a windows update

#

everything was working completely fine until yesterday

upper osprey
#

Have you updated your obs yesterday?

warped sequoia
#

yeah, i downloaded the latest one

#

both obs.live and studio

upper osprey
#

okay, than I'll give you this advice

#

deinstall obs and obs.live (don't matter if it says the obs.live deinstall is not successful...) - restart your system - look for obs v24.0.3 (make sure it is for windows and not for mac 😅 ) - download and install this and then install obs.live again. Ignore the question of obs to update to the newest version and click "stay at this version" or something similar

#

Maybe this will help you

#

I think v25 of obs is bugged in several ways

#

Can anyone here help me with my chat issue? The overlay works fine but the chat doesnt appear at all...
@rugged quail maybe I can, have you built the chat within the overlay editor?

warped sequoia
#

thanks, i'll give that a shot

#

youre welcome 😄

but keep in mind I'm no streamelements staff or volunteer, just doing my best to help you

@upper osprey im here im listening!

upper osprey
#

So, do you have your OBS open? (sorry for the question, but) Have your already tried writing something in your chat? @thedjflake

rugged quail
#

i have obs open, i have tried using the chat in obs

warped sequoia
#

I was able to fix the overlays not appearing issue by downgrading to 24.0.3, but installing OBS.live made it crash when i opened it. How I was able to fix the uninstallation aborting of OBS.live was by uninstalling it through the application (and not the uninstaller or control panel) for some ungodly reason. So i'll be sticking with OBS Studio without the plugin until its fixed. Hopefully it's not an issue just for me. Thanks again @upper osprey

@rugged quail and? Nothing appears?

rugged quail
#

@upper osprey nothing.

upper osprey
#

Even not the Message you wrote? @rugged quail

@warped sequoia youre welcome

rugged quail
#

@upper osprey not even my message comes up. even the box is not there

upper osprey
#

OK. I'll try Something. Jeep an eye in your obs Screen 😉

rugged quail
#

ok!

upper osprey
#

Can you see my message there?

rugged quail
#

yes, but only in my obs chat

#

you didnt get my reply?

upper osprey
#

Hmm...which background colour has the Chat you want to have in your overlay?

rugged quail
#

i chose the white one

upper osprey
#

you didnt get my reply?
@rugged quail sorry im on my Smartphone. I'll have to switch around between the apps

rugged quail
#

@upper osprey no problem dude!

upper osprey
#

i chose the white one
@rugged quail have you edited the Text color of your chat?

#

And have you placed a big enough space for the chat in the editor?

rugged quail
#

@upper osprey its black, and there is plenty of space.

upper osprey
#

Hmm...so I don't have a clue at all. Im sorry 😦

rugged quail
#

thats ok! Thanks for trying to help anyway 🙂

upper osprey
#

Maybe I could help you better from my PC via Screenshots from your Editor Settings. But on Smartphone it wont work properly I think. But ill give it a try If you want to

rugged quail
#

omfg i figured out what the problem was!!!!

#

dude this is something you can tell other rookies like myself.

wary dew
#

oh this is going to be good

#

i can smell it

upper osprey
#

You havent saved the Settings?

rugged quail
#

The layer that had the chat on it was marked as invisible. So theres a little eye icon next to the layer indicating if it is on or off. I wasnt aware that the chat eye was switched off.

wary dew
rugged quail
#

So i could see all the text slightly transparent in the editor, but i thought that was just what it was meant to look like!

upper osprey
#

Oh. Nice.

wary dew
#

at least it's fixed now

rugged quail
#

Yeah! And now you guys can help out other fools like me by teaching them about the layers and the visability hahaha!

#

thanks anyway for all your time and help guys i appreciate it

upper osprey
#

🤔

worn bone
#

so I'm trying to stream on twitch but I'm using obs just 2 days ago I was able to stream fine and the obs was game capturing my desktop screen but now it's just showing a blank black screen even when I have a game open. anyone know why?

upper osprey
#

Which Game @worn bone

worn bone
#

fortnite or runescape just the normal. I've tried a few different ones and all it gives me is a black screen.

upper osprey
#

Or did you try different ones?

grand tulip
#

Why isnt my image showing up on the preview?

upper osprey
#

I See, youre faster than me @worn bone

worn bone
#

yeah it was capturing fortnite just 2 days ago than when I tried to stream last night it wouldn't capture the screen I have no clue why

upper osprey
#

Why isnt my image showing up on the preview?
@grand tulip Editor Preview?

worn bone
upper osprey
#

yeah it was capturing fortnite just 2 days ago than when I tried to stream last night it wouldn't capture the screen I have no clue why
@worn bone have you updated to a newer obs version in this time?

worn bone
#

yeah I updated it just barely yesterday

upper osprey
#

Maybe its a Bug in the latest Version.

worn bone
#

idk should I uninstall and re install? the only thing about that is I had someone set all this up for me because I honestly didn't know how.

upper osprey
#

If it worked well before and you didnt Change anything else, i guess this could be the problem

worn bone
#

my screen is a 1080p and the guy set it up for me with a base resolution of 1920 by 1080
and output resolution of 1920 by 1080 is that right?

#

on obs

upper osprey
#

Seems correct. And it worked with this until the last update, right?

worn bone
#

yes, it was capturing just fine till than.

sturdy sky
#

hi im having an issue where when i try to display my media request widget on obs.live on stream it duplicates the audio. i added the request to my overlay and i set it up in the integrated obs.live part.

worn bone
#

video bitrate is 6000 kbps encoder is amd hardware and audio bitrate is 160

#

recording format is mp4. I changed that it was at mkv but I don't think that was the problem because it was showing a black screen before I changed that today.

upper osprey
#

yes, it was capturing just fine till than.
@worn bone then back up your settings (there is an Option for this in OBS) and try going Back to obs v24.0.3

sturdy sky
#

i fixed my issue disregard my post

worn bone
#

how do I back it up?

upper osprey
#

how do I back it up?
@worn bone i cant Tell you right now, im on my Smartphone with no obs in sight 😅

worn bone
#

oh okay, I just have no clue how to do it. I'm just looking around in obs to try and figure out what's wrong

upper osprey
#

Maybe SE Staff or the volunteer helpers here can catch up here and help you out with further assistance. im only a user like you @worn bone

worn bone
#

oh okay, well thanks for at least trying. I'll see of I can figure all this out. just don't want all my overlays and stuff to get taken off because I have no clue how to get them back on if they do come off.

tender python
#

so.

thorny ember
#

Cheers. I got a .overlay file from a Fiverr Artist. How do i import it to OBS? Thanks in advance!

odd kraken
#

This is a StreamLabs file format. Best to contact them.

thorny ember
#

Ay rip

#

so i cant import it to OBS. Only StreamLabs?

odd kraken
#

Afaik yes.

thorny ember
#

yikes. rip. but thx

odd kraken
#

You can try to import it to StreamLabs and use the import tool in OBS.Live to import it to StreamElements.

thorny ember
#

ay ye will try that

Having an issue with this new OBS update (20.3.8.603) where when you click on a source in the Preview area, it doesn't highlight the source you clicked on in the Sources tab, so you don't know whether you're clicking on the one you actually want to work on - previous version automatically highlights the source you clicked on in the Preview in the Sources menu

#

How to fix this?

#

Hmm... restarting program seems to have worked... 😐 something to note though

grand tulip
#

rugged garden
#

Hello everyone. I have a question about the recent update. Before this new update I was able to game capture all my games. I am no longer able to do this. Any remedies?

rugged quail
#

i cannot record rainbow six but every other game

tender python
#

Hello everyone. I have a question about the recent update. Before this new update I was able to game capture all my games. I am no longer able to do this. Any remedies?
@rugged garden could be a bug; have you tried re-adding the capture?

#

if so, dont upgrade back to v25 (assuming you upgraded to v25)

rugged garden
#

I tried re adding each game and nothing works @tender python

#

I am doing game capture, specific window, and the specific game. Never had a problem.

#

How do go back to the previous version?

tender python
grand tulip
#

@honest echo that did not work

#

I logged out and logged in on obs and nothing changed

#

honest echo
#

grand tulip

#

@honest echo

honest echo

@grand tulip Follow these steps to grant managers/moderators access to your dashboard:

  1. Click on your Channel Name at the top of the dashboard and select Settings
  2. Create a new invite at one of three access levels (Bot Supervisor, Editor, Full Control)
  3. Send this invite to a mod/manager to give them access to your dashboard. The link is one-time-use and expires after 72 hours if not accepted

knotty tinsel
#

webpage won't load, I'm getting a white screen and I deleted the cache and tried the hard refresh and still nothing. Any solutions? Streamlabs OBS is being trash right now and I need something that will load my comments when a follower/viewer comments. I've tried everything, as far as support to fix the problem goes, and still nothing. Is streamelements any better?

tender python
#

@knotty tinsel what webpage?

#

I don't know if SLOBS upgraded to V25 (internally)

knotty tinsel
#

www.streamelements.com everytime I try to go to the home page to try and download the software it's just a white page.

tender python
#

So first question would be: did you upgrade (anything) ?

knotty tinsel
#

no, first time trying to download it.

tender python
#

what browser you using

knotty tinsel
#

internet explorer.

tender python
#

Yeah. Dont.

#

Chrome or chromium related browsers.

#

If you want to stick with IE or Edge, get edge chromium .

knotty tinsel
#

So google chrome would be a better option?

tender python
#

The site's made for chrome. IE is outdated and will probably not load - or poorly.

#

Chrome or chromium browsers, yes. I used to rely heavily on Chrome, but since MSedge is chromium based, and actually uses less resources, i prefer it now over Official Chrome 🙂

knotty tinsel
#

I didn't know that. Like I said it's my first time trying to download it. So, is chromium free to download??

tender python
#

Yes.

#

that's the latest download link for SE + Obs Live 🙂

knotty tinsel
#

Alright thanks brother, I'll give it a try and see if it works,

steel bladeBOT
#

@grand tulip 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

honest echo
#

Just remember this ok? ⤴️

knotty tinsel
#

@tender python thank you sir, it loaded the webpage and I'm currently downloading the software for StreamElements

tender python
#

👍

dreamy cloud
#

was just wondering if anyone else had the same issue

upper osprey
#

im having an issue with seeing my viewer count i have the new obs.live with streamelements and obs
@dreamy cloud maybe its a bug in the newest Version. Has it worked properly before ?

tender python
#

imo, turn it off regardless, but i digress

upper jacinth
#

Hello Germen?

#

I have an IP cam, can I add and set it to obs Live?

tender python
#

can you view through a browser?

#

if so; use a browsersource.

#

if you van view through say, VLC, add that as a window source.. so many ways.

upper jacinth
#

Thank you I test times let me know who I have problems with, thank you

delicate sigil
#

pls help

upper jacinth
#

Don't bring that together in VLC Plaer with the link

#

could not be played

tender python
#

how would you normally watch the ipcamera?

#

add that way, as a source

upper jacinth
#

Browser

#

192.178.63/main.htm

#

192.168.178.63/live.htm

this is only live picture

#

192.168.178.63/main.htm sorry

#

Main= Stream + Confi

#

charred sleet
#

I've tried to install many different versions

#

my firewall is allowing it

tender python
#

@upper jacinth so whatabout a browser window open, capture that as a window

charred sleet
#

to update on forever it just doesn't log me in

#

It stays loading nonstop

upper osprey
#

@charred sleet your internet speed is alright then?

charred sleet
#

Yes.

upper osprey
#

How long this problem already sticks with you?

charred sleet
#

It happened when I hit reload overlays to reset my stream starting soon counter

#

and then my overlays stopped working

#

Now nothing loads or I can't login now through obs live

upper osprey
#

Has it worked with previous obs versions?

charred sleet
#

Obs live yes

upper jacinth
upper osprey
#

Have you tried to remove both obs.live and obs and reinstall first obs v24.0.3 and then obs.live again. Then deny the update "invitation" from obs and "stay with this version" or sth similar? @charred sleet

#

Because there are several bugs occuring in the actual version 25.0.X of obs studio

charred sleet
#

Am attempting it now hold on

upper osprey
#

So maybe this will solve your problem

#

And dont forget to restart after removing and before installing 😉

upper jacinth
#

I made you a screenshot in the middle is the browser Left side obs live with ipcam settings, does not work in obs live the IP Cam

charred sleet
#

Okay

#

@upper osprey

#

I have obs 24.0.3

#

fallen hare
#

please see me live

#

charred sleet
#

It's still doing the same thing

#

Even after going to 24.0.3

upper osprey
#

now do I just install obs live from streamelements site now?
@charred sleet yes - and remember dont allow obs to update itself at first time starting

#

hmm...strange thing.

fallen hare
#

how me wideo ?

#

tender python
#

@fallen hare fine line, could be considered self-promotion.

fallen hare
#

how self promotion

#

#

@tender python help me need ok

tender python
#

looks fine to me

upper osprey
#

@charred sleet have you tried to log out and log in again in obs? (maybe youve already done that after installing the older version)

verbal wolf
#

upper osprey
#

@verbal wolf when does it happen? any recent updates on obs.live oder obs studio you've installed before?

verbal wolf
#

I installed OBS.live for the first time yesterday so I can't tell

#

The source image is coming from an ultrawide monitor frome Samsung

#

from*

#

I don't know if it can be a source of problems

charred sleet
#

Yes

#

I have tried

#

@upper osprey

tender python
#

Drivers, @verbal wolf .

upper osprey
#

@verbal wolf your nvidia gpu drivers are up to date?

#

@charred sleet - maybe try to log out and log in again to twitch inside obs studio

verbal wolf
#

@tender python Yeah I installed the latest drivers from the NVIDIA GeForce Experience

#

@upper osprey Version 442.74 03/19/2020

tender python
#

V25 or v24 of obs

upper osprey
#

tender python
#

@verbal wolf V25 or V24 of obs

verbal wolf

tip 1: always run OBS in admin mode

tender python
#
09:56:25.232: [NVENC encoder: 'streaming_h264'] Failed to open NVENC codec: Generic error in an external library```
verbal wolf
#

@wary dew Tried but still not working

#

@tender python Yeah that's the message

wary dew
tender python
#

Seems like a faulty install, a few options

#

latest drivers, @wary dew

#

not the issue.

wary dew
#

clean instal is not the same as latest drivers though 😛

tender python
#

@upper osprey Version 442.74 03/19/2020
@wary dew

wary dew
#

just in case 😛

upper osprey
#

also think clean install of drivers is the next step

tender python
#

tbh, "Generic error in an external library" kinda points that way

upper osprey
#

because somethings wrong with the library of the encoder
