Hi everyone, I come for a little information I can not have the return of my game capture on OBS. Live but on the other hand in Screenshot it function. that it wouldn't come from my Division2 games

odd kraken
#

Bungie has opted to not allow OBS to hook Destiny 2 using Game Capture. See: https://www.bungie.net/en/Help/Article/46101
You will need to run the game in either windowed fullscreen or borderless windowed and use Window Capture instead.

Hello. So i have this strange problem. On my activity feed (this is in obs live) my old channel is logged in. i dont know how to get my new channel logged in there. Please help 🙂

hi, dose the emulate feature work on OBS, because the emulate feature works fine on the "my overlays" editor on streamelements.com but doesn't work on OBS

#

turn if off please 😉

to ''show in OBS''

Hey all, so I'm having trouble with my stream. Been doing it for a long time and I can't get it to show up clear anymore. I run a GTX 1070, with a i7 6700k CPU. I find my recordings and streams are very pixelly even when running game settings low, and having the right settings for obs. Just need help with this

steel bladeBOT
#

@deft aurora 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+)

deft aurora
elfin lagoon
#

i think i solved it by logging off and on again

#

NOPE nvm

deft aurora
#

Is anyone here able to help?

this is the result from the analyzer

Appreciate it, thank you.

Anyone else having issues installing on stream deck?

Thanks. I'll give that a shot.

Ok, So. Basically 3 days ago, My stream have been good, But today it seems like the streams are just boosting up due to the CPU. I swear I remember seeing something in the box what is empty, And I was wondering if there is something I can do to be able to get that box filled with all the things it had before.

#

I've tried updating my drive, And I also have deleted OBS Live and reinstalled it.

#

I don't know what else I should try.

slim dock
#

getting "invalid auth token" in when trying to open streamelements overlay editor in obs. how do i get it back ?

fathom cobalt
#

Try reauth account

slim dock
#

is that in obs or do i have to go to streamelements website

fathom cobalt
#

or re-add your streamkey if you prefer that

#

Settings > Stream

slim dock
#

did the stream key

#

still doesn't work

fathom cobalt
#

Obs restart tried?

slim dock
#

it's happened for a while

#

never had to edit anything until now though

#

so obs has been closed and opened many times

fathom cobalt
#

You can provide screenshot of error?

slim dock
fathom cobalt
#

Ah

#

You meant overlay editor in OBS

#

This is known issue

slim dock
#

yeah i said overlay editor initially lol

fathom cobalt
#

I can recommend use overlay editor on the website

slim dock
#

damn so it's a streamelements bug or something ?

steel bladeBOT
#

@slim dock Streamelements on top of OBS -> Logout -> login

odd kraken
#

You can also try this.

tulip hamlet
#

@slim dock Edit on the site, not in OBS.Live.

slim dock
#

alright thanks

#

the bot suggestion worked @tulip hamlet

keen girder
#

HEY GUYS... i somehow deleted my obslive shortcut.. where do i find it? cant find it anywhere.. only OBS studio

#

ands its not the same

wary dew
#

OBS Studio shortcut should work too

#

i use that by default

keen girder
#

but its not the same icon.. i need the icon with the rocket and the login for my twitch... that doesnt happen when i hit the obs studio program :/

#

also it wont load my games now when i open obs studio instead of obs live..

tulip hamlet
#

OBS.Live is a plugin for OBS Studio. If it's installed, it should launch regardless of which shortcut is used.

#

Icon doesn't matter.

keen girder
#

it is installed but it does not launchm

#

i know about the icon thing.. its just - i dont know how to explain

tulip hamlet
#

Screenshot your OBS please.

keen girder
tulip hamlet
#

The StreamElements menu at the top and the version in the bottom right are both proof that OBS.Live is running.

manic condor
#

So why timers have not been showing up. is there a way I can test it without going live?

tulip hamlet
#

@manic condor What did you set chat lines to?

manic condor
#

I like like 50 or something

tulip hamlet
#

And you have 50 chat messages within 5 minutes to justify that?

manic condor
#

Sometimes. it off and on about that many lines

#

wait... so is it 50 lines in 5 min for it to work?

tulip hamlet
#

Read the note beneath the setting.

manic condor
#

I think I missunderstood how it works...

#

Thanks for the help...

keen girder
#

i see that.. but why doesnt it show my game anymore then same goes for the layout.. its not the same

tulip hamlet
#

Check your sources.

keen girder
#

i did many times.. i never change my settings or sources... it just suddenly didnt work

brisk dove
#

Dumb question here, can't find a good answer on google, but how do you change your stream title lol. I've look in the app and the dashboard for about 10 mins 🤣

hello,

when i tried to update obs.live just now. I somehow got this: Can't write: C:\Program Files (x86)\obs-studio\obs-plugins\64bit\locales\en-US.pak

(this wasn't my first time updating and other updates went in smoothly)
anyone know a fix?

tulip hamlet
#

Is there a try again button?

clear root
#

tried retry button

#

but not going through

tulip hamlet
#

Check your task manager and make sure something of OBS isn't still open.

#

Or try restarting your computer.

my app crashes evertime i try to open it

tulip hamlet
#

@placid gorge Can you provide your crash log please?

placid gorge
#

it doesnt give one it just closes

steel bladeBOT
#

@placid gorge To find the OBS Studio crash logs, follow these steps:

  1. Press Win+R to open the Run dialog
  2. Type in: %APPDATA%\obs-studio\crashes and press Enter
  3. Upload the desired crash log, usually the latest, directly to this Discord channel by dragging and dropping the file into the chat window
placid gorge
tulip hamlet
#

@placid gorge Follow these steps, in this exact order. If you do anything out of order, you will cause yourself more problems.
Uninstall OBS.Live, leaving only OBS Studio installed.
Open OBS Studio and delete all of your browser sources.
Reinstall OBS.Live and then you should be able to remake your browser sources.

Hello everyone. For about 2 weeks now when I switch from my starting soon scene to my live scene by webcams disappears. This can occur when I'm live and when I'm not with just the program open. Any thoughts on this? Is it a bug from an update?

how am i supposed to delete my browser sources when i cant do anything within the app

tulip hamlet
#

@placid gorge Follow the steps. In order. As said.

placid gorge

ive tried

tulip hamlet
#

Uninstall OBS.Live, leaving only OBS Studio installed.

#

Open OBS Studio and delete all of your browser sources.

placid gorge
#

yes

tulip hamlet
#

Reinstall OBS.Live and then you should be able to remake your browser sources.

#

You need to uninstall OBS.Live first.

placid gorge
#

bro i cant delete my browser sources because my obs studio instantly freezes

tulip hamlet

You are not listening.

You need to uninstall OBS.Live first.

unkempt carbon
#

Hi everyone, do we have a way to export our overlays ?

steel bladeBOT
#

@unkempt carbon 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

unkempt carbon
#

My 1st twitch channel is lockdown, so I just create a new one....but unfortunately I dont want to recreate everything from a scratch when the other one was perfect for me...

tulip hamlet
#

If you cannot access your StreamElements account because your Twitch account has been suspended, then you will need to wait for that suspension to be lifted.

#

If you linked other channels in your account, you can perhaps bypass this by logging into the other channel first, and then using the Channels dropdown on the top left to switch over.

unkempt carbon
#

In example...all my overlays are in streamelement....but widgets, alerts, etc seem bugguy because that...linked to the wrong one

tulip hamlet
#

They're not "buggy;" if they're in the channel that was suspended, then they're looking for data from that suspended channel. An overlay doesn't automatically listen to a different channel just because you changed things in OBS.

unkempt carbon
#

The channel isnt suspended....I just forgot my password because linked to a old phone number...

#

so I can't receive the sms

tulip hamlet
#

Then you'll need to contact Twitch.

unkempt carbon
#

Why not just implementing a way to export "our" overlay?

tulip hamlet
#

StreamElements is a cloud-based service. There is no export.

unkempt carbon
#

If I can import them....why not way to export them

tulip hamlet
#

It's meant to be used in the cloud.

unkempt carbon
#

ya...but...the reverse process remain the same than uploading our overlay

tulip hamlet
#

In this case, you link your channels and then duplicate your overlay.

#

But there is no export.

unkempt carbon
#

ya I taken my overlay created for my bad twitch channel, and use the navigator link to import them in my software

tulip hamlet
#

No, you're misunderstanding.

#

That's just adding it to OBS.

#

That changes nothing.

#

Your overlay will still be tracking the channel it was made for.

#

Within your StreamElements dashboard, you must duplicate the overlay to your other channel.

unkempt carbon
#

oof...okay...but I cant add a 2nd twitch channel right?

tulip hamlet
#

Yes, you can.

#

But if you can't access the first, you still need to contact Twitch.

unkempt carbon
#

ok

#

seem good 🙂

split gazelle
#

Oh. Can you only be logged in to one platform at a time?

Yes.

So my media request keeps echoing in my stream. Whenever I dont show it on stream on OBS Live, it doesn't echo, but when I do show on stream, it starts to provide an echo sound

steel bladeBOT
hearty briar
#

This problem is still occuring and I do not have the website open as well. I checked it off and made sure no audio was on a delay

tulip hamlet
#

@hearty briar You need to check it on every browser source in every scene. Just because you're not on the scene does not mean the browser source is not still active there.

hearty briar
#

OHHH, thank you so much

#

i did a North America test

tulip hamlet
#

Well that's not good.

ember torrent
#

what are the ports for obs studio?

#

i wanna try something

tulip hamlet
#

This is outbound traffic, port forwarding is to manage inbound traffic.

ember torrent
#

hmm

#

gotcha

#

@tulip hamlet I'm not sure what to do

tender python
#

Check with a network outage

#

because anything like that, + high RTT, signals dead connection(s)

Everything else in my house runs fine, i even reset my modem

I applied a recent windows update and that fixed it

drowsy matrix

will there be an update to work with OBS 25 soon?

tulip hamlet

It already does.

great to hear, ill go ahead and do the update then. ive been avoiding the OBS STudio 25 update to prevent conflicts with the SE OBS Live

Hey all, I've been having an issue with my OBS.LIVE dropping frames every time I stream. It hasn't always done this, and just recently started dropping more and more frames in the past week. I haven't changed anything in my system, settings, hardware or anything, so I don't know what's going on. I've checked for an update SEVERAL times, and there's none available. Anyone that can help fix this I'd be eternally grateful.

steel bladeBOT
#

@timber skiff 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.

rugged quail
#

hello can someone help me

steel bladeBOT
#

@rugged quail 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.

rugged quail
#

i want to know if there is someone that can help me first lol

tulip hamlet
#

The bot doesn't talk on its own.

rugged quail
#

well

#

what has been happening is that my obs has been messing up badly

tulip hamlet
#

If it's the same issue you wrote about two hours ago, you still need to reach out to OBS Project's support.

rugged quail
#

i did

#

and they didnt help

tulip hamlet
#

Unusual brightness behavior in capture sources is not something we can really help with here.

rugged quail
#

do you not have any idea as to what it could be? I have been trying to fix this for hours now. I have been looking online and found nothing, i watched YouTube videos that didn't help, i went to obs support and they couldn't help me. I am at a dead end right now 😦

timber skiff
#

https://obsproject.com/logs/T5J-RLSa9Q-RLhGM is the URL for my last stream, but it's not a long stream. I was only live for a few minutes when I started to see the bitrate/frames dropping, and ended it to seek help. There are other streams in the last few days that have significantly more data

tulip hamlet
#

That log doesn't have an output session at all.

rugged quail
#

ill take that as a no

timber skiff
#

How can I upload a log from a stream that wasn't the last one? I can open them in my documents, I just don't know how to upload them other than how the bot just told me to.

tulip hamlet
#

It won't let you.

steel bladeBOT
#

@timber skiff 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+)

timber skiff
#

Cool will do.

tulip hamlet
timber skiff
#

Awesome, thank you. I'll see what I can do about getting that fixed

tulip hamlet
#

You may not be able to. A lot of it is just the current state of the world.

timber skiff
#

That's very true, with everyone being home, and all of the bandwidth being taken up when it's usually not. That makes sense as to why it just started happening in the last week. I did a speed test, and it's showing 3mb/s upload when it should be 10.

fresh gyro
#

Hello, I have a black window problem on Obs, can someone help me please?

shy mountain
#

Are you on a laptop?

fresh gyro
#

yes

steel bladeBOT
#

@fresh gyro Due to the way laptops are designed, your system must be configured to run OBS on a specific GPU, depending on the type of capture you are trying to do.

For Game Capture and Window Capture (recommended), your system must be configured to run OBS on your laptop’s high performance GPU (default); for Display Capture, your system must be configured to run OBS on your laptop’s power saving GPU (iGPU).

If you are running Windows 10 1903 or newer, use this guide for instructions on how to configure your system: https://github.com/obsproject/obs-studio/wiki/Laptop-GPU-Selection-Windows-10

For instructions on configuring an older version of Windows (you should consider upgrading), use this guide: https://obsproject.com/wiki/Laptop-Troubleshooting

Not sure if this is the right spot but I tried to withdraw from the SE to my bank account and I havnt received been 5 days wanted to make sure if it just takes a long time or if there was an error

shy mountain
#

Is the wrong channel, but no worries. It takes between 3 to 5 days for a withdraw from SE.Pay to hit your bank.

late fiber
#

Okay what if it doesn’t ?

shy mountain
#

From what I see it should have already hit your bank. Talk with your bank and see if there is an incoming amount

As you can see image in the studio is like that when u move it around and still have no idea what it is. I'm a newbie on this and it was working properly before.

@low crag If you are having issues with Streamdeck or Elgato capture cards, its best to ask in their Discord here: https://discord.gg/elgato

an OBS plug-in?

#

Did you read the instructions for the plug-in?

Don’t feel bad. It’s been that kind of month

Someday they will build an installer for plug-ins directly into obs and it will be a 1-click install

EDIT: RESOLVED, see images below
Hi, having some issues with updating. I downloaded StreamElements today and it works fine on OBS 24, but I have been using 25 (since I stream Rainbow 6 Siege and need the Vulkan compaitibility, I definitely don't want torevert to 24.) After the prompt comes up on the latest OBS 25.0.1 to update StreamElements, I get an error message saying 'Failed downloading software update package.' After that there is no remnant of streamelements anywhere in OBS and my only option was to go back to the streamelements website and redownload the same update, which opens only in the prveious version of OBS.

#

It is a very long route back to reattempting the download package since it involves 2 reinstallations to get the prompt. Why is there not just an updated download package that is compatible with OBS 25 on the StreamElements site, and if there is, how do I find it and avoid the 24 one?

#

UPDATE: Managed to find the right downloader, had to scroll up in this chat a fair bit, was the end of a long and pointless saga. Could StreamElements please update this link so that it points to the updated download package

Hey there, I'm wondering how to integrate my alerts overlay in OBS

odd kraken
#

Create an overlay with an alertbox and add this to your OBS.

#

Curious if anyone knows what's going on

odd kraken
#

StreamElements does not support multistreaming and does not have Restream support. If you're signed in with Mixer, you'll be streaming to Mixer.

#

I made the overlay in StreamElements, but I am not quite sure how to add it to OBS?

steel bladeBOT
#

@high storm 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

How do I get my alerts to show up

steel bladeBOT
#

@tardy temple 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

silent rock
#

ive followed the instructions on how to set up instant replays but i still cant seem to test it on my obs.live

tardy temple
#

why the heck cant i click any buttons

#

on obslive

#

i can edit my sources but i cant open settings

#

its annoying

odd kraken
#

Can you access your overlays via the website?

tardy temple
#

i fixed it

odd kraken
#

@tardy temple Read what the bot posted again, special focus on the resolution.
If the overlay has an alertbox which is set up correctly, then you should have alerts.

steel bladeBOT
tardy temple
#

ok

teal sandal
#

Anyone know why I always have black screen when trying to stream/record The division 2 ? It only happen on this game

odd kraken
#

@teal sandal
Bungie has opted to not allow OBS to hook Destiny 2 using Game Capture. See: https://www.bungie.net/en/Help/Article/46101
You will need to run the game in either windowed fullscreen or borderless windowed and use Window Capture instead.

Destiny 2 ? i'm talking about Division 2... can you read ?

need some help with my dm me to help me thank you

tulip hamlet
#

@edgy crater Support is provided in the public channels, not in DMs.

edgy crater
#

oh well ok i dont know what it mean when i stream and it say lower video settings or use a faster encoder i dont know what to do

tulip hamlet
#

Do just that. Go into your OBS settings and lower quality. Your computer can't take it.

edgy crater
#

what kind of setting though

tulip hamlet
#

Settings>Video

#

Settings>Output

edgy crater
#

i have a ryzen 5 5500k 32gb of ram and a 1050ti what settings should i use then

steel bladeBOT
#

@edgy crater 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.

You can run the OBS auto-configuration tool. To use the auto-config, click on the Tools menu in OBS, select Auto-Configuration Wizard, and then just follow the on-screen directions.
You can use this tool to get baseline settings for your hardware and adjust as necessary from there.

Test, test, and test again. We are happy to offer suggestions for any issues you may be having afterwards, but not a list of settings.

Thank you SEheart

strong gust

is there a way to make text fade in when using streamelements with obsliv when you transition to a new scene?

tulip hamlet
#

Pardon?

strong gust
#

i want to make an overlay where the text fades in after the scene is activated

tulip hamlet
#

That would require you to custom code each and every widget to fade in on load.

#

There is no default option for it.

In streamlabs or on my desktop

i loaded obs to stream, all of my boarders and overlays went to black screens. the only screen showing up is my main screen gameplay, but with no overlays and my stream is running very poorly

#

@silent crystal 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.

silent crystal
#

sorry, i had the wrong screen open, both applications are actually doing it. is this a problem on my end?

tulip hamlet
#

Please take a screenshot of the issue in OBS Studio.

silent crystal
#

its crashing everytime i open it now

tulip hamlet
#

Please provide the crash log.

silent crystal
#

its right there

#

on the left

tulip hamlet
#

That's saying it made a crash log.

#

So now please actually provide the crash log to us.

silent crystal
#

sorry, im new to all of this. sending now

#

i press yes on it, but im not able to find it after that

tulip hamlet
#

It copied it to your clipboard.

#

Now paste it here.

silent crystal
tulip hamlet
#

@silent crystal Uninstall OBS.Live, leaving OBS Studio installed alone.
Launch OBS Studio. It shouldn't crash. Delete your browser sources.
Reinstall OBS.Live. After that, you can remake your browser sources.

silent crystal
#

studio is crashing as well

tulip hamlet
#

Did you uninstall OBS.Live first?

#

Follow the steps in order

silent crystal
#

yes

tulip hamlet
#

Reinstall OBS Studio, then.

silent crystal
#

im trying to uninstall and its saying installation aborted. setupd was not completed successfully even though im attempting to delete

#

do you have any idea why?

#

here we go, i deleted them. re installing now

#

Thank you for the help! I got it to work after deleting. Have a nice night

whole mural
#

I cant open stream elements anymore it crashes everytime. I did the Uninstall steps, but I dont unserstand the "Delete your browerr sources". Will I have to lose all my settings and set up?

tulip hamlet
#

@whole mural Browser sources are not your entire setup and have nothing to do with your settings. They're individual sources you create to reference your overlays in your account. It's essentially a browser tab you've pasted a link into. They're very easy to remake.

whole mural
#

Do i just delete the sources that have the streamelements links . or everything?

tulip hamlet
#

All browser sources.

#

Not all sources.

#

Only browser sources.

whole mural
#

ok

tulip hamlet
#

Whether they've got StreamElements links or other links.

#

If it's a browser source, it needs to go.

drowsy trench
#

Im running into a visual issue.

shy mountain
#

Can you elaborate?

drowsy trench
#

of course, wanted to make sure i was going to be heard. sorry

#

im trying to stream division 2. but when i use the game capture for source, i just get a black screen.

shy mountain
#

OBS 25.0.1?

drowsy trench
#

ive played other games windowed before, so im not sure why this is not working.

#

lemme double check, just installed today.

shy mountain
#

its 25.0.1

drowsy trench
#

obs live 23?

#

sorry, 20.3.8.603

shy mountain
#

the newest version of OBS Studio is being blocked by the anti-cheat of Division 2

#

thats obs.live

#

OBS Studio is on top left

drowsy trench
#

then yes,

shy mountain
#

afaik, there is nothing we or the OBS guys can do about it and just wait for the the Division 2 devs to update their anti-cheat

drowsy trench
#

ah, got it. that clears waters.

shy mountain
#

I believe it would be best to have the game at a window-fullscreen

#

and do display capture

drowsy trench
#

that seemed to work, but i cant remove mouse capture.

shy mountain
#

Im not sure i understand

drowsy trench
#

ok. well, it is setup, so when it works, it works i guess.

#

with the display capture, it also shows my mouse moving on the screen.

#

i can opt to have the mouse hidden on stream with the game capture.

shy mountain
#

Hm

drowsy trench
#

by cant, i mean there is no option to.

shy mountain
#

guess not

drowsy trench
#

i mean, i havent tried that to confirm.

shy mountain
#

Ok I thought this option was for the Multiview, but now im not sure what is defined as projector

#

nvm figured it out

drowsy trench
#

so i tried that, still captures mouse with the hide cursor checked.

shy mountain
#

projectors is if you right click the obs preview and you will see 2 options saying "projectors"

#

so thats not it

drowsy trench
#

ok, yea, that was odd.

#

well thanks for the information @shy mountain since div2 is not getting along with obs, i will stream something else.

we can't help you with your query, because you are asking an OBS Studio specific question

Is there anyway to run Obs.live if I had to downgrade OBS to be able to stream some games ?

#

Because it only ask me to update, but I don't have my chat and such anymore in OBS because of the downgrade

steel bladeBOT
#

@teal sandal 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

ripe hedge

Adobe AIR is a cross-operating-system runtime that lets developers combine HTML, JavaScript, Adobe Flash ect... use on webpage

and i try to make a overlay using it

#

Are you looking into how to use it within our overlays or manipulate our overlays with it?

i do and it says you need airplay to use it

Left or right
Answer: yes

Are you trying to manipulate our overlays or no?

are you logged in to StreamElements in OBS?

can you send a screenshot?

I used to have "media request" and "stream activity" panels next to the chat, but they disappeared when I logged out

hence the super wide chat

#

I checked for updates and both OBS and .live are updated

if you click on the StreamElements menu on the top, can you see: Activity Feed and Media Request?

and click those?

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

#

how do i move my overlays from the website over to the actual launcher? i just downloaded elements

honest echo
quick grove
#

how do i send my overlay to my obs

honest echo
#

@quick grove just copy the URL and add it as a browser source

steel bladeBOT
#

@quick grove 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

vital cliff
#

How do you edit them? like say i want to add my twitter etc @honest echo

honest echo
#

@vital cliff on the web editor, you can watch the video about i know its a from 2017 but you can get the overall idea

autumn bronze
#

so im doing that but its only loading a corner of the overlay

honest echo
#

check the dimensions

#

1920 x 1080

autumn bronze
#

ohhhh, thank yiu. youre very helpful

winged osprey
#

need help guys

#

It just took me forever to actually go live and start streaming. kept telling me ecoding error while live streaming. Finaggled with some stuff. Now OBS is taking up 60% of my CPU when it usually uses up 11%...Also the bottom left is saying encoding error overload. WTH is going on

steel bladeBOT
#

@winged 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.

heavy geode
#

help in obslive the screen is black whenever i try and go live or record and is not capturing the screen please help

#

no matter what i do

#

it will not capture the screen

steel bladeBOT
#

@heavy geode Due to the way laptops are designed, your system must be configured to run OBS on a specific GPU, depending on the type of capture you are trying to do.

For Game Capture and Window Capture (recommended), your system must be configured to run OBS on your laptop’s high performance GPU (default); for Display Capture, your system must be configured to run OBS on your laptop’s power saving GPU (iGPU).

If you are running Windows 10 1903 or newer, use this guide for instructions on how to configure your system: https://github.com/obsproject/obs-studio/wiki/Laptop-GPU-Selection-Windows-10

For instructions on configuring an older version of Windows (you should consider upgrading), use this guide: https://obsproject.com/wiki/Laptop-Troubleshooting

Hello,

unfortunately I can't add StreamElements OBS.live to the Stream Deck since a few days now.

When I try to do this, nothing happens.

Does someone have the same problem or maybe even know how to fix it?

GIF for that: http://img.bantor.de/27910/5e7efbf004266.gif

@dreamy flicker - Open %appdata%\Elgato\StreamDeck\Plugins

hazy hollow
#

I'm really desperate for some OBS assistance if someone has some time please

fathom cobalt
#

Sure

#

What is bothering you?

hazy hollow
#

Is there a bug in OBS? My mouse cursor is showing even though the button is ticked to not "show mouse"

#

This has been happening to me in the last 2 days. Was never a problem. Also noticed my saving format changed from .mp4 to .mkv when I didn't select anything

shy mountain
#

That doesn't look like a ticked on option

hazy hollow
#

I don't want it to display

#

The mouse is yet displaying whilst recording

#

😦

shy mountain
#

ooh it needs to be unticked - my bad

hazy hollow
#

its unticked

shy mountain
#

that is more of an OBS specific issue imo

steel bladeBOT
shy mountain
#

for both the capture mouse and the recording change

hazy hollow
#

No one is responding there atm. Was in the middle of the video when I played it back and it was showing the mouse

#

So I have to re-record

#

Thank you 🙂

shy mountain
#

Unfortunately I don't even know where to begin troubleshooting both issues

hazy hollow
#

@shy mountain If anyone inquires you need to change it from Automatic to bitblt

#

Some window captures will affect display captures, so if you fix these settings it will also correct it across the other capture sources as well 🙂

#

Very grateful someone replied

shy mountain
#

bitblt - what is this?

hazy hollow
#

Its your capture method KeiZar

shy mountain
#

ah ok

#

ty for the info

toxic sequoia
#

I was having problems last night with the obs streamelments chat. My chat box keep saying connecting to chat for the full stream even after shutdown computer restart.

steel bladeBOT
#

@toxic sequoia Streamelements on top of OBS -> Logout -> login

toxic sequoia
#

I will try that today if the problem Keeps up

clear tiger
#

How do I get StreamElements overlays on my OBS live

#

because, I can't download the overlays

steel bladeBOT
#

@clear tiger 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

clear tiger
#

Good, that's fine but my webcam is behind the overlay. How can I make it not behind?

shy mountain
#

Move the webcam source on top of the browser source

clear tiger
#

Thank you Keizar

#

Also another thing I can't edit the ones that says like Discord, Twitter stuff like that

shy mountain
#

You need to edit them in the overlay

clear tiger
#

bruh

clear tiger
#

I cannot edit the things on the top

#

It won't let me

steel bladeBOT

knotty compass
#

Can someone here help me with a small issue?

shy mountain
#

Please don't post in multiple channels.

#

State you issue and we will provide you with information

knotty compass
#

The bot told me to come here...

#

Okay. So I got obslive and everything is ok. But when I stream and keep my obslive in my second monitor, the game from the first monitor lags. This issue doesnt happen with all games

#

If I minimize obs the game goes perfectly smooth. Some games are ok with obs opened but most of them are dropping fps (20-30fps drops)

shy mountain
#

Is one of your monitors a 144hz one?

knotty compass
#

Yes. The first one. And the second is 60hz.

shy mountain
#

For reasons I can't go deeper on this, I will provide a more TL'DR' version:

#

GPUs don't like having to render video on 2 different refresh rates

#

either try and update your drivers or sync up both monitors on 60hz

#

if the 2nd one can't go past 60hz

#

the reasons i can't go deeper as this is a GPU issue :/

knotty compass
#

But I have friends who use the same monitors and they dont have problems. Ahh I see. So the gpu is like not optimized well or something

shy mountain
#

afaik, GPUs don't like rendering different refresh rates of the same video source, as in, 144hz graphics in 60hz at the same time

#

so it tries to balance it out, by either lagging the 144hz monitor source or stuttering the 60hz one

#

the basic solution to this is to turn off the live preview window in OBS

#

i just remembered that was a work around

knotty compass
#

Alright. I will see what I can do. Thank you very much, sir. Have a good day!

#

How do I reset the icons for the hypecup?

#

I changed to this bag but changed back to a normal cup, the icons however did not change back

timid mason
#

Hello, how to fix facebook getting logout everytime i relaunch obs.live?

shy mountain
#

@rugged quail You will have to recreat the hypecup unfortunately.

steel bladeBOT
#

@timid mason 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

Okay thanks! @shy mountain rukayaHeart

ember kelp
#

Hey guys

#

Does anyone have a second to help with my obs?

#

I have my overlays on it but when my stream is live it’s not centered correctly and I can’t get it to look right

ember kelp
#

It has said that for about 30 minutes now

steel bladeBOT
#

@ember kelp 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

ember kelp
#

No picture and before that it said no connection but I unplugged my Elgato and plugged it back in and now it’s saying this

kindred fox
#

Which elgato card do you have?

ember kelp
#

The hd60s

kindred fox
#

Did you install 4K capture utility?

ember kelp
#

I had picture yesterday but idk what happened, I turned my PS4 on and my laptop and it’s not getting the picture

#

The Elgato software? If that’s what you mean then yeah

kindred fox
#

Turn on your PS4 second

ember kelp
#

It’s on now

kindred fox
#

Obs has to initialize the card as a device. Once it initialized the card, it should be able to pull a signal

#

HDMI cables connected correctly?

ember kelp
#

They are the same as yesterday when I was getting picture, I never moved them

kindred fox
#

Is your PS4 on?

ember kelp
#

Yea

kindred fox
#

Reboot it

ember kelp
#

Ok

#

Should I turn my laptop off too?

kindred fox
#

No

wary dew
#

i never use the Elgato program at the same time as OBS, it will mess it up

kindred fox
#

Leave obs open with your capture

#

Only game capture does

ember kelp
#

Ok

wary dew
#

turn on PS4 first, then open OBS, or else it won't work right for some reason (in my case)

ember kelp
#

Ok its finished restarting

kindred fox
#

No image?

ember kelp
#

Nope

kindred fox
#

Restart only obs this time

ember kelp
kindred fox
#

Is that after restarting obs? And is OBS running as Administrator?

ember kelp
#

I’m restarting it now

kindred fox
#

And it’s running as administrator?

ember kelp
#

My tv went black and now it has no picture and my laptop says that

#

Yes

kindred fox
#

Double-click the elgato source >> deactivate video button >> activate video

ember kelp
kindred fox
#

At this point, gonna send you over to the elgato discord to see what’s up.

steel bladeBOT
#

@ember kelp If you are having issues with Streamdeck or Elgato capture cards, its best to ask in their Discord here: https://discord.gg/elgato

ember kelp
#

Ok thanks

#

Do you think that turning off the enable hdcp option on my PS4 would fix it?

#

I know they aren’t supposed to be on so I just thought to look and saw it was checked and turned it off. I’m restarting my laptop now to see what happens

wary dew
#

yeah that 100% needs to be turned off

#

or else you can't capture the ps4 screen

ember kelp
#

Idk why it was on, I turned it off yesterday

#

And I have picture!!

#

Now can you guys help me with my original reason for coming here?

kindred fox
#

Which was?

ember kelp
#

It was the hdcp on my PS4

#

Apparently I have to turn it off every time I turn my console on

kindred fox
#

What was the original reason you came for assistance?

ember kelp
#

Oh sorry

#

I can’t seem to have my live streaming fit correctly on my streams

warm spire
#

how do i add my overlay url

ember kelp
#

What am I doing wrong here?

steel bladeBOT
#

@warm spire 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

warm spire
#

thanks

kindred fox
#

@ember kelp obs settings >> video >> base canvas 1920 x 1080 // output 1280 x 720?

ember kelp
#

Ok let’s see how that looks

#

I was told in a video to make them both the same

kindred fox
#

That’s wrong

ember kelp
#

Lol

kindred fox
#

Unless you’re just recording

ember kelp
#

I’m streaming to twitch from obs on my PS4

kindred fox
#

Recording they can be the same resolution, streaming you want the output 720p because it requires less bandwidth and more people will be able to watch it

ember kelp
#

Ok I did that

#

So the black area was covered before I changed it, is it supposed to be like that?

kindred fox
#

Click elgato source >> push Ctrl+F

#

Did you change the base canvas or the output resolution?

ember kelp
kindred fox
#

K

#

Yeah select the elgato source and hit CTRL+F

ember kelp
#

Ok

Hi, I need help i keep getting error while start stream with OBS Live to FBGaming

What error?

hello everyone, I have just started streaming. I use OBS and designed starting screen by streamelements but ıt doesnt fıt the screen when ı open obs

@fathom wren make sure your gpu driver is updated

#

I did but still the same

#

thnx ıt worked ❤️

Make sure obs is running as Administrator

#

@fathom wren

fathom wren
#

I have streamed to Twitch this afternoon and no problems

rugged quail
#

how i can add my youtube livestream chat into obs live?

kindred fox
#

What does it currently show @rugged quail ?

#

@fathom wren restart your pc?

rugged quail
#

twitch chat and twitch activity feed

steel bladeBOT
#

@rugged quail Streamelements on top of OBS -> Logout -> login

rugged quail
#

thanks

fathom wren
#

I did too but still the same

ember kelp
#

Ok my Elgato settings are open

kindred fox
#

Why?

#

Leave the elgato at 1920x1080

#

Your canvas is what you see in obs. Everything inside your obs preview should be 1920x1080

#

What gets sent to twitch is scaled down to 1280x720

steel bladeBOT
ember kelp
#

Ok nice

#

Thanks man!

#

Oh yeah Idk if I can stream on twitch or now because I don’t have a stream key listed?

kindred fox
#

Obs settings >> stream >> connect button

#

Forget stream keys, those are so 2000’s

ember kelp
#

Yea I did that already but I’ve seen that other people in the help videos I’ve watched have a stream key, do I need that for obs to communicate with twitch for streaming

#

Lol ok forgotten

kindred fox
#

Stream keys are fun and all, but authenticating directly against twitch is much better

#

Eventually stream keys will be phased out

ember kelp
#

So now I just click “start streaming” and I should be good to go or do I have to open twitch too

wary dew
#

nope

kindred fox
#

What you mean “nope” @wary dew ?

ember kelp
#

Ok cool so only obs is the only application I need open then

kindred fox
#

Yep

wary dew
#

nope, no twitch open

kindred fox
#

I recommend opening your stream on your phone so you can watch it

ember kelp
#

Ok will do

kindred fox
#

Check audio levels, make sure it looks decent

ember kelp
#

Ok I will then

kindred fox
#

I check mine on my phone and then while I’m on break I can still chat with viewers think

ember kelp
#

Do my “stream starting soon” and all that just get controlled through obs as I see fit?

#

Just click on it whenever the corresponding scene fits my need

kindred fox
#

Yep

ember kelp
#

Ok cool thanks a lot you guys

kindred fox
#

👍

ember kelp
#

My tv looks like this

#

But my stream looks like this

#

It’s off center on my laptop screen

kindred fox
#

Select your elgato source and push CTRL+F again

#

@ember kelp

ember kelp
#

Ok

devout kite
#

Orsuna, since you were talking about canvas/output res... if my base resolution is 1440, but I'm using a 1080 overlay (and outputting at 720), do I need to adjust either my base or overlay to match?

ember kelp
#

Tv....

kindred fox
#

You can actually resize the overlay in the website

#

To 1440p so it fits

ember kelp
kindred fox
#

@devout kite can you post a screenshot of your overlay list really quick?
