I am trying to Stream via Youtube soon. My bitrate is stabalized (around 4500 kb/s) then it completely drops down to the 200-300s and it sometimes even hits zero.
@fallen hamlet After you entered the line in console and hit enter, you cannot set the bot name?
let me check again
@fringe grove 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.
Thank you
What is this screenshot for? This is your activity feed in your browser, not the one in your OBS.
@fallen hamlet Streamelements on top of OBS -> Logout -> login
Use the StreamElements activity feed please.
that first screen shot is my streamelements activity feed
It is not the Streamelements activity feed in OBS.Live.
In your OBS.Live: select StreamElements > Activity feed.
allright i did that
ahh its back
it had session expired
so do i have to do this everytime? or session expires after a certain time?
Should not be needed to do every time. If this keeps happening, come back here please.
thank ou for help benno
Anyone know how to fix HDMI audio on PC not going to my headset as it's only playing through my monitor. My stream can hear the sounds but I'm unable to. Every sound setting says it's going to my headset, but when i switch to HDMI i can only hear the sound through my monitor(not sure if this is an obslive issue, but thought i'd ask here as it's possible it could me)
@split kelp For the best OBS support, please join their Official Discord @ discord.gg/obsproject
Hello. After i added a gif to my alert my "(name) is now following" text does not show up any longer. Is there a specific reason for this?
Check margins in the advanced text settings.
check the margins in the advanced text settings please.
yes.
can someone help me i cant use multiple hotkeys in obs!
@woven hamlet For the best OBS support, please join their Official Discord @ discord.gg/obsproject
so when i shift a source on the can vas to close to the border it pulls everything else the opposite way and re scales it. ITs wasnt doing this before. can anyone help?
Can someone help me set up the alert box? I'm having issues where my sound isn't playing and the image/gif only shows up for a split second. I've checked my alert duration, changed images, turned off any possible variations
@wild hazel can you share a screenshot of your alertbox?
@ionic yarrow For the best OBS support, please join their Official Discord @ discord.gg/obsproject
hello, is this the right place for obs.live stream deck stuff? I can't install the plugin for some reason - I click install, the progress bar goes, then nothing happens
nm, I just cleared out the stream deck folder and started fresh, it works now.
@wild hazel that's a jpg file
Yeah I was trying different types, but I get the same result with a jpg or gif
I can switch to GIF but it'll still only show it for a split second
If it was a JPG, wouldn't it still remain on for the duration of the alert?
@wild hazel delete the alertbox widget and add it again should solve this
in the process of my switch from s labs to s elements i imported my overlays from streamlabs and my alerts and things like that didnt import
And when i tried to import streamlabs alerts online it said there was an error
@thick wadi don't ping people, when somebody is available will jump to answer, please a little patience
okay sorry
@thick wadi have you checked https://streamelements.com/dashboard/overlays
its imported but the orientation of everything is off
Hello, my streamelements doesnt allow me to edit the layout anymore and it's missing the chat/activity feed. I don't see anywhere that allows me to add it back. Seems to have all disappeared after an update.
my obs moved all assets to the middle of the scene when changing scene
for no apparent reason
@Zwompy#6455 sadly, thats its something that could happen i hope you will be able to move things around as you need 👍
@crisp glade Streamelements on top of OBS -> Logout -> login
@rugged quail Right click on the BrowserSource > Properties > Scroll down a bit > Refresh Cache of current page
@steel blade its not just the browser source
its all the sources
camera, alerts, game capture etc
everything moved and duplicated
without any input
just when switching scene, and it affected all scenes
@rugged quail For the best OBS support, please join their Official Discord @ discord.gg/obsproject
how can I change my streamelements platform?
I appreciate the support, but OBS' help on that discord is non-existant
@crimson osprey Streamelements on top of OBS -> Logout -> login
@rugged quail im sorry to hear that, i never encounter that "duplicated sources on switch scenes" issue
any plugin that maybe doing this? happen everytime that you switch between scenes?
my personal recomendation is to make a fresh install and try then
Hello, I am having an issue with my Alerts. I am using the Grey Area super theme. I am streaming to FB live through OBS.live. I get the alert for page follow, but thats it. I am not being notified of shares, video likes, or anything and I don't know why its not communicating.
im sorry i should have put this in facebook maybe. \
@karmic jewel yeah, just to keep the order
posted there, thank you!
hello, my obs is not showing the transmission information tab
there is also no option in the show menu
where can i enable this tab again?
Anyone know how to get this to go away
does this have a chat box widget?
@crimson osprey Streamelements on top of OBS -> Logout -> login
I might be stupid but where is this located?
@sick hedge
yes
@crimson osprey check my screenshot - on the top bar of menu buttons
@light widget View -> docks -> reset ui
oh so there's really no point of adding a chat box in the actual stream now....right?
Could I still use steamlabs chat box widget with this?
I like the chatbox on stream.
Hi @manic robin, Please ask your question(s) or describe the problem you're looking to solve so staff or a support volunteer can assist you as soon as they are available.
anyone know how to add a new dock?
View -> Dock -> Custom browser dock
sweet thank you
Hi can someone please help. I am trying to setup the remote control from my Iphone for obs live. But under obs live settings is no remote control so I can scan the qr code?
We do not have a remote control app for OBS.Live
OBS.Live is a plugin for OBS Studio
and what I think you are looking for is SLOBS' thing.
different software
But Can I get the SLOBS 😆thing To work?
Ask SL's support
Who damn man you are talking to me like I know everything bit more detail please
OK
This is Streamelements Discord.
You are asking about a Streamlabs feature.
We are different companies
conclusion - ask the Streamlabs support or in their discord.
Thank You for the assistance
This is Streamelements Discord.
You are asking about a Streamlabs feature.
@shy mountain Hi sorry to bother again but this is what I am using look at what I have circled they just send me back to you guys
Because this is OBS.Live
The "remote control" app you have on your phone
is for SLOBS
as in Streamlabs' w/e it is OBS thing
the streamlabs remote app only works with streamlabs obs and not with obs studio/obs live
the online web thingy? excuse me guys I am still learning please help
so if you wanted to use that app then you would have to use streamlabs obs which doesn't make sense if you're using streamelements
CONFUSED 😕
Ok cool I will leave it there but touch portal will work?
touchportal or a stream deck should work yes
Thank YOu
Does anyone know if there is a way to keybind or macro this action somehow? I sometimes want the video available during media request, but not always. being able to macro it to certain scenes via updeck or at least keybind it's toggle would be fantastic. There isn't a binding for it in OBS.live (the show/hide video just toggles whether the video is visible rather than the source being active or not)
Thats as closest as you can get for it.
The button when clicked checks for the widget if its active in an overlay
so having it being spammed by a hotkey/macro can cause it to timeout
Ah alright, yeah I figured given the way it seems to work it would be a stretch to be able to automate it further. Perhaps via toggling the source off in different scenes I'd be able to get something close enough, and perhaps a volume fade macro will make it not appear janky. cheers dude!
Hi! I created my stream overlays online, but how do i get them into obs live?
@rugged quail 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
hi, my media player is not showing on stream any more.
In the overlay editor it shows up, but not in OBS, altough the alerts work fine which aro on the same overlay
@lunar quiver Right click on the BrowserSource > Properties > Scroll down a bit > Refresh Cache of current page
@steel blade I tried it, but no changes
Are you clicking on "show on stream"?
yes
@lunar quiver Please provide your account ID found at the top of this page: https://streamelements.com/dashboard/account/channels This ID is public info and safe to share here.
@steel blade 5ea58fea7338324dd3143204
Yes in the preview it works, but its not showing up in obs
The video and sound of my allerts work, but
@lunar quiver The default resolution for StreamElements overlays (theme and custom) is 1920x1080. Please add them in OBS at their full resolution and use CTRL+F to fit to screen if necessary. You can then downscale your stream in OBS settings > Video if you'd like https://i.imgur.com/6bWXxjR.png
@steel blade Tried it but no changes
@lunar quiver show me a screenshot of the entire OBS with the canvas and sources fully visible
and the source that holds the overlay with the MR widget selected
thats UHD right?
no 🥺 thanks for your help btw
sure no probs
DM ID and PW
hey guys, i got a minor problem, maybe you can help..
my activity feed stopped updating 3 days ago, any idea why this would have happened?
im about to just close out that panel and forget it ever existed...
@rugged quail can you give me your account ID and username?
I added a new overlay and updated my OBS and now when i click browser source to add my new overlay nothing is popping up is there a way to fix this?
Hi. I'm in OBS starting to use streamelements, for tips and donations i've already connected via Streamlabs, but obs live asks me to use streamelents, can i avoid that?
@tulip thicket OBS -> settings -> advanced -> scroll down -> enable/disable hardware accel.
https://i.imgur.com/ggMe9ZE.png
Hi there!
I try to use media request right now. Works fine, but I'd want it to set its audio output to another device than my main desktop device. Because I use a three-level audio setup :
- Desktop audio (anything that the computer "emits" except a few things)
- Musics & communications (so that I.e. i can have a pause scene where everything's off except music)
- My microphone
I usually have no issue doing that with any other other software, it's just a matter or going in their settings and changing their output device to my voicemeeter auxiliary device I use for musics & coms. But for OBS, I can't find a way to do that?
Hi, I was wondering if someone can help me fix my chat addon in my OBS Live. it's stuck on connecting and not in dark mode. I click the settings and it says error
Hi, I tried to enable/disable hardware accel. and my overlay is still not showing up
@rugged quail Please provide your account ID found at the top of this page: https://streamelements.com/dashboard/account/channels This ID is public info and safe to share here.
account ID: 5e4165764eab48b3230bab3c
nevermind its working again for me
Can someone help me with my chat widget, it stuck on connecting to chat?
how can i change the colour , font etc from the custom donation texts people do, I went through the settings but wasnt succesfull
my activity feed stopped updating 3 days ago, any idea why this would have happened?
@pulsar roost Streamelements on top of OBS -> Logout -> login
Did not work
Do you have a screenshot of your OBS please.
@dry jungle Change the color of the secondary text in the text settings in the alertbox.
@rugged quail Please connect your streaming account (Twitch, YouTube, or Facebook) with Discord by going to ⚙ Settings and then Connections here in Discord. https://streamable.com/eg92w
Can't make head or tails of it
Close and reopen the dock with StreamElements > Chat
reload the dock with the reload in the top left of the dock.
Log out of Settings > Stream and log out of StreamElements > Log out and log back in to both
Restart your OBS
@rugged quail What events are not shown?
nothing new in 3 days... the likes shares follows i have gotten , havent been showing in my alert feed
@odd kraken Still the same
In the activity feed, press the refresh session button please. @rugged quail
everything was working fine till this last update
ok, now nothing is displayed in the feed window, even the stuff from 3 days ago is gone
You referring to twitch right?
obs
What plafrom do you stream on?
I just followed you on twitch, do you see my follow in your twitch activity feed?
yep i just got yours, cool thanks! now will it work for facebook alerts also? thats where i normally stream
Try to do the same and log out of your dashboard and log back in.
Anyway to fix the chat connection?
I asked internally if someone of the other support membes knows.
ok, I hope there's a fix soon cuz I have a stream later today
My last ditch effort will be uninstall both Streamelements and OBS. Restart and install again
Not sure if this an OBSLive question, but my Chatbox clears every so often. Anyone know how to stop that?
well crud....
got my old alerts back, but still wont pick up facebook alerts
when i sign out, and it asks me to sign in using twitch, youtube, facebook, or Mixer..... if i log in using twitch, it will show me the alerts that are shown in the twitch dashboard. If i log in using facebook, it shows me all my old alerts, but will not show any thing that has happened for the last 3 days...
Yes, if we missed events, then they will not show.
The relog hopefully refreshed the connection and new events will show up as they happen from now on.
ill have my daughter log in and try to like a video
We do not get the following events from Facebook:
- Shares
- Likes on the stream
i used to get both those....
likes on stream for sure
that was the last thing i got before it all decided to go south
just confirmed shares also
Like said, we do not get past events if we missed them. New events should show up after the relog.
Asked staff internally on your issue.
just created a test stream on my facebook channel, can you please try to send me an alert of somekind
@rugged quail Please connect your streaming account (Twitch, YouTube, or Facebook) with Discord by going to ⚙ Settings and then Connections here in Discord. https://streamable.com/eg92w
ok i think i did it
@rugged quail I cannot access the linked account.
I have a question, so I am streaming to a different channel and changed my twitch settings to the new channel, but the activity feed is still connected to the old one. Does anyone have a fix for this?
@vital mauve Streamelements on top of OBS -> Logout -> login
now that is weird, im looking right at it and it is showing both my twitch and facebook accounts...
removed the FB account and re-added it
Just got the info that there might be issues with Facebook events. No ETA on a fix.
@odd kraken Uninstalling Streamelements Live and OBS Studio and reinstalling them both fixed the issues I was having. The only problem I'm having now is that the chat widget can't be toggled to dark mode
Check pinned messages.
my obs.live actions on my elgato stream deck dont work and say they are offline... how do I fix this?
@twilit holly - Open %appdata%\Elgato\StreamDeck\Plugins
- Delete the
com.streamelements.obslive.sdplugin folder
i am trying to open OBS Live 64-bit and every time i do i get a pop up saying "failed to load locale" how do i fix this?
Do you have a screenshot of that error message please?
Also have you tried to start it as admin?
Try to reinstall OBS.Live.
okay, reinstalling it, will this delete all my overlays and my settings?
You can save them with copying the %appdata%/obs-studio folder to a save location.
So i deleted the "com.streamelements.obslive.sd"
and redownloaded the obs.live plugin on my elgato stream deck and none of the actions work still... how do i get the skip alerts and media request buttons to work?
@twilit holly try Reinstall streamdeck software
that did not work either... any other ideas?
hello i need help 😮
@queen sigil Welcome to the helpdesk! Please let us know how we can assist you today and a support volunteer or staff member will assist you as soon as they are available. Thank you for your patience.
I use obs live with stream elements. When I stream it does not show when someone follows or anything. I tested this with a friend but it showed nothimg. It works perfectly when ever I emulate though.
is there anyone else that i could talk to for my problem?
Is there a way to give the Streamelements Bot a custom name?
@patent delta Currently renaming the bot fully works with OBS.Live.
You can follow this video guide to set it up: https://discordapp.com/channels/141203863863558144/494513233416421386/561516184718278676
If you don't want to use OBS.Live and want to stick with Ground Control, please let us know your Twitch username.
Hey when every I log onto obs it says wooops and crashes idk what is can anyone help?
I use OBS Live and had changed it to StreamElements at some point not knowing what I was doing. The custom bot option is no longer available in the dropdown
It says woops obs has crashed
@steel blade that link doesn't help me. I selected Streamelements already and want to change it. I use OBS live and the custom option is no longer available
Alright! I would like to "sync" my stuff from my OBS Live to my other PC with OBS. I saw option for Backup Settings but it does not load for me, what to do?
I have a problem and it would be nice if someone could help me, until recently I could still grab the camera on a corner and pull it to the size I wanted, but since yesterday it has not been possible for me what can I do ?
I have a widget for sparks. An alert should pop up on the screen when someone sends sparks on mixer but it doesnt work, my other notifications work just not sparks

@undone kayak Can you ealborate on does not load?
@astral mason Do you have a crash log for us?
I withdraw my request, managed to fix it by forcing update
Next issue, my Capture Card does not seem to transfer sound from gaming PC into stream PC, any ideas what might cause this?
I am sending the sound through HDMI to capture card but it seems to never arrive?
@undone kayak For the best OBS support, please join their Official Discord @ discord.gg/obsproject
Hi - I'm having issues with Store Redemption widget. The sounds for redemption items plays twice all the time. Sometimes the sounds from the last redeemed item play when a Media Request is made, or when someone Follows. Someone from this support channel tried to help me troubleshoot previously, but without success (he indicated there was a known issue with the redemption widget). Is there anyone that can attempt to assist?
@tidal dove Try using gif and audio instead of a video on your store item
@honest echo I deleted all the videos and did just two gifs with audio and seems to be fine for now. Bummer, but at least it's sorted for the moment.
Thanks
quick question if anyone can help, for some reason stream elements encounters an error every time i try to import my existing overlay. all my alerts work except the donation alert since its the only one still tied to streamlabs directly where as the rest are just generic and attached to twitch info no matter what
didnt know if maybe a quick fix would be to great an alert box on the overlay that streamelements lets me import and then steal the url from that and replace it in the alertbox url ?
@dapper fractal You can import the alertbox from StreamLabs via OBS.Live.
i did that but the issue is that the alert box is attached to a streamlabs donation page rather than my streamelements donation page, therefore not registering that it needs to alert me
You would need to use our overlays with the imported alertbox and use our tipping link.
hey I've got a problem with my activity feed im getting followers but the notification is not coming through can anyone help ?
how do i add your tipping link? i just managed to get the alert box to import without an issue but i want to make sure its attached to your tip link and not the streamlabs one anymore before adding it to the overlay again.
@rocky tulip When you replay the event in your activity feed, does the alert pop up in your OBS?
no
@dapper fractal You can find your tipping link in your tipping settings > tipping settings > panel setup.
@rocky 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
@rocky tulip Readd the overay with the alertbox like the bot requested.
@odd kraken i know where my tip link is, im just wondering how i set that new tip link to the alert box, unless i have to do a seperate alert box for tipping from follows, subs, etc. now
so everything else except my followers are coming through
@dapper fractal If the tip as made through the link and the event is in your activity feed, the StreamElements alertbox will catch it and play an alert.
@rocky tulip Do you have the follower event enabled in the alertbox settings?
That is your activity feed, not the alertbox in the overlay.
Did you just get an alert?
wdym
In the screenshot, that is your activity feed.
I meant the follower event in the alertbox, which is emulating the alert in your overlay.
I just followed your twitch channel. Did you get an alert?
@rocky tulip Right click on the BrowserSource > Properties > Scroll down a bit > Refresh Cache of current page
Try to clear the cache like the bot requested and replay a follower event in the activity feed.
Do you hear and/or see the alert in your OBS?
no i don't hear or see the follower ones but the other ones i do
any specific reason why when trying to import overlays while in obs.live it gives me failed importing scene collection every time?
@rocky tulip Replay an event from the activity feed? Do you see the alert in your overlay editor?
@dapper fractal some big assets or copyright ones
The importer can fail due to one (or more) of these:
- Trying to import copyrighted assets from SLOBS
- There are local files bigger then 100mb
yeah i do
@rocky tulip Delete the browser source with the overlay and add it again to your OBS. Then replay the follow in your activity feed.
Does it come up in your OBS?
@dapper fractal Best to contact owned.tv, if they have the overlay ready for StreamElements.
ok ty
yeah i did that and it comes up but i need to see if it will for a real follow
Did you get an alert?
no
Is there a new follow in your activity feed?
no
@rocky tulip Please logout of StreamElements at https://streamelements.com/logout and then login again to your account (Twitch/Youtube/Facebook/Mixer)
i already tried this
@rocky tulip Please provide your account ID found at the top of this page: https://streamelements.com/dashboard/account/channels This ID is public info and safe to share here.
Try on chrome
@rocky tulip Our Dashboard and Overlay editor are Chromium Optimized. We strongly recommend using Chrome. Opera GX and the new Microsoft Edge Chromium might work closest to Chrome as its also Chromium built. FireFox also works, but some things might look a bit different or not work. We do not recommend using Internet Explorer with our Dashboard as it does not support functions.
If the website doesn’t work on chrome, be sure none of your plugins are blocking our website or clear your cookies. You can try if the website works in a incognito tab.
where am i putting my account id then
Here please.
ok i will take a look
thxs
hey its came up there that you followed in the activity feed i think it might be fixed
👍
ill let you know if it does it again but thanks guys for you're time
Not sure which one page I'm suppose to select. But the stream elements web page wont load on my computer for some reason just loads to a white screen so it wont allow me to load anything
What do you see when you access the page? Do you have a screeshot?

Hi guys
Can someone help me with mediashare?
I've added a mediashare source, with my streamelemts link
But somehow when i accept a songrequest or try with !play, it doesnt show up on my stream
im currently live, so maybe better for testing
@sinful crescent you need to add the Mediashare widget on your overlay in order to show the video on your stream
Could you help me?
@sinful crescent you need to add the Mediashare widget on your overlay in order to show the video on your stream
@sinful crescent
It may not show if you did not restart / refresh your overlay @sinful crescent
Have had that happen a few times.
Right... But, you need to refresh your overlay my dude.
Actually refresh the source in obs.
With all of my channels and accounts linked, does all of my alerts from each of the channels now show in obs.live other than just my main account?
hi how do i add donation overlays to my stream
i found some templates
but idk how to add to my stream
@tardy void we don't support multistreaming, and you will see the alerts of the overlay that you added on OBS
@placid oar 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
ty
@honest echo Gotcha. Thank you.
I guess I will just stream to individual platforms then. Probably the best.
👍
is there a guide to add goal bar?
@placid oar something like this?
yes?
idk im new
like a follower goal bar
that fills up
i dont even know how im doing what im doing rn xD
the followers goal is under Labels > Followers > Goals

ty
maybe you need to take a look at this video
is it possible my volume changes for viewers?
Like sometimes it sounds loud, sometimes it doesnt
even tho im not changing anything
Thats depends on the video, you could use the !volume 20 command
even on youtube some videos are louder than others
hard to describe
but they say when the bass kicks in
The volume lowers
Is that an obs setting?
the latests followers and subscribers are showing random names what should i do?
Hi! Can I get some help getting a custom alert overlay to work with OBS?
@placid oar wdym?
Actually it's getting late, I'll check back in tomorrow
@austere ibex a custom alert should be setup on the alertbox widget and then the widget on your overlay
@austere ibex 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
Yeah, I have done exactly what the bot suggested a dozen times and all I am getting is the audio of the alert. I made sure to set the browser source layer to top and pasted the url of the overlay, set the resolution, and it will not show. I have tested it live on stream half a dozen times with no results.
@austere ibex OBS -> settings -> advanced -> scroll down -> enable/disable hardware accel.

lmao, got it. Thanks yo!
could someone inform me on how to use the chat overlay on my stream? im trying to do like an intermission screen
@broken pine entry Overlay page > create one blank overlay > select the screen resolution (size) > select Stream Tools > Your stream's chat
Or, add this Widget on your Intermission overlay 🙂
I wanted to ask if there way any way to view the name of the followers that open the stream like FaceBook does. Right now the chat box inside OBS only displays the name of people that send you a message.
thanks! @plain mason
heloo, i was gonna ask why does media share say invalid link when i paste a YT url into it??
hello is it possible to set your obs in white instead of dark mode
Hi, how do I enable chat bots?

hey, any fix for this? ive been googling for an hour and nothing worked
If you have a white screen this is most likely due to a local issue, where something is blocking the connection to StreamElements.
Check firewall settings.
already did it and didn't work 😦 @odd kraken
Then something else is blocking the connection.
You were right @odd kraken its solved, thank you
Just for records, what was blocking the connection? What have you done to solve this?
It was my own connection's problem, i used a VPN and it got solved
looking for some help if possible i have tried all the basics i was told to do.
@tropic badge 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.
need help on a screen that pops up
Can you elaborate please.
when i hit properties over something like alerts and i try to hit the tab "open in streamelements overlay editor" it brings the screen up like its gonna open then says Uh-oh... invalid authorization token
@tropic badge Streamelements on top of OBS -> Logout -> login
Hello I have a problem my game is well recognized in full screen and when I am in game the image moves, but you can see it is not displayed on the stage I do not understand why it makes me that with all the games. (you can answer in French if you are it is my native language.)
Press Ctrl + F to make the red boarder of the game capture fit your screen when the source is slected.
❤️ Thanks
What is the use of overlay token
It is a token with limited access to some StreamElements API features.
How can i use it
If you want to access some SE API features, like change loyalty points via API you can use that token isntead of your JWT token.
please answer my concern
when will bingo be settled? is there an indicative date?
No ETA.
so for some reason my audio from my elgato hd60s runs through the elgato audio feed (not to stream) then through the desktop audio feed (to stream).
up until re-doing my setup yesterday my elgato audio would always go straight to stream, and I never had to use desktop audio. any ideas?
The elgato audio is playing directly into my headset and I can hear it fine. but it doesn't output to the stream.
When i increase the desktop audio, it doesn't do anything for my headset
is it possible to add my custom stinger transition?

Omg im an idiot thank you @steel blade !!!!
Hi, 2 days ago i switched from streamelements to streamlabs because i had to use a macbook pro so i used streamlabs. Yoday i am using again windows and the streamelements bot doesn't work. What can i do?
What platform are you streaming on?
twitch
!logout
Please logout of StreamElements at https://streamelements.com/logout and then login again to your account (Twitch/Youtube/Facebook/Mixer)
!part
Go to the dashboard -> right side -> part channel -> join channel (https://streamelements.com/dashboard)
^ try this please.
thank you so much man!
What am i doing wrong?
The redline should be around the mediarequest
Ah lol, within obs i was using a different w/l compared to streamelements
Already fixed
The elgato audio is playing directly into my headset and I can hear it fine. but it doesn't output to the stream.
When i increase the desktop audio, it doesn't do anything for my headset
@formal bloom
how do i remove a channel owner
@frank flint There is no easy way to unlink 2 owner type accounts from each other. The only way is to make a closure request from here: https://streamelements.com/dashboard/account/security
WARNING: In submitting a closure request you will delete both linked accounts and loose all data from both accounts. This includes overlays, custom commands, timers and past data(tips, subs, etc). You can still relogin with the deleted account, but you are essentially starting fresh.
could someone help me with scrolling text? setting it up in overlay editor but then on stream it doesnt scroll
@spice star OBS -> settings -> advanced -> scroll down -> enable/disable hardware accel.
https://i.imgur.com/ggMe9ZE.png
disable that *
thank you!
is there any way to get multiple labels on the same line instead of having multiple lines?
Is there a "known issue" list anywhere I can read over? I want to make sure the stream chat widget isn't bugged because then I know it's me and not the widget.
There is not. What platform do you stream to?
what issues are you having with the widget?
Twitch, and comments aren't showing up anymore.
I recently built a stream pc and added in all my stuff into OBS and my chat widget doesn't work.
It's on top of my overlay I use for chatting so I know it isn't covered up.
I've removed it, added back, saved the overlay, copied link into OBS as a browser source, type in my chat in OBS, and nothing shows up in the preview of OBS.
Can anyone DM for help on streamelements OBS and requirements for a stream pc? Just need some advice

@swift nymph What OBS version do you see in the top left?
@swift nymph Streamelements on top of OBS -> Logout -> login
Ok I did that and still nothing.
@swift nymph Right click on the BrowserSource > Properties > Scroll down a bit > Refresh Cache of current page
Negative ghost writer. 😔
For me you haven't even wrote in your twitch chat to test. '
Are you referring to your own account?
@maiden berry 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.
Benno, no I'm not on my main. On my ghost for testing the new pc.
If you went to "borrietheblade", yeah, nothing should be there
But someone JUST typed "hello Benno" on my ghost
You also logged in to the accounts overlays? @swift nymph
is there a way to fix input lag in games when using obs live?p
@maiden berry 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.
Ah on the website? Aaahhhhhhhh. No. That is my main which now solidified it was me all along haha.
Makes sense Benno.
Yeah. You just said hi didn't you?
no me
On my main

Oh you? Lol. 😂
Oh my mistake. I see your name now Ruben.
Ok. So I see what I was doing wrong.
is that how you are supposed to it with the log thing?
Thank you again for the help.
👍
hello, the alert does not work in my stream.
What event? And what platform do you stream to?
I'm broadcasting on twitch
Hello i got a Problem with OBS live i just closed the Media share tab and i cant open it up again
and i dont know how
@odd kraken and how do i open it up in OBS live ?
Thanks <2
How can I display on my obs the name of the viewers?

@odd kraken I wanted to ask the question for Facebook
@mortal aurora 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.
how come when i made a theme in stream elements i cannot import it to stream labs
@rugged quail 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.
@steel blade when I stream on OBS studio it doesn’t pick up game chat, it only picks up my mic
@devout wedge For the best OBS support, please join their Official Discord @ discord.gg/obsproject
how do i get my stream elements theme to stream labs obs
What platform do you stream on?
@odd kraken twtich sorry!
Select the person in the top right of the chat.
oh right i'm stupid, thanks!
also I would like to have two "chat box" on my obs, I had it the first time I launched it but I deleted one how can I add it?
Oh found it!
hey guys, loving obs live. But My chat box is white and everything else is dark themed. How can I changed that to match?
See pinned messages.
you guys are fucking legends
i love you
and one last thing, I notice in my OBS in my preview screen it does play as smoothly as it does in StreamElements Overlay editor, is that something I should be concerned about or is that a setting I need to adjust?
You use animated overlays?
yes sir
Then most likely the PC cannot handle the load of the animations.
Nah that's not right. I think its a program CPU usage thing, the bigger the preview - the slower the frame rate gets, but I can render a 4k video and play COD in 4k without lag, im confident it's not my CPU.
NBD, as long as my viewers see a clean video im happy
Ah it was in the video settings, needed to be change to 60FPS, thanks anyways tho!
sometimes, sometimes
Hi everyone, does anyone know why my direct with obs live systematically disconnects at exactly 50 minutes, probable setting to change. I tried them all and there are no tutorials about it. Thanks in advance to those who can help me.
Okay I've got the store setup and I've had a few people redeem some items, but I can't find out how to see what they input the requirements fields. Is there a way to see that in obs live somewhere?
THANKS!
everytime I want to start my streaming
Please screenshot your live video settings.
how do i get there?
The very large button in the center of the right panel in your screenshot.
Go Live with Facebook Streamer Dashboard settings instead, and set up your details in Facebook.
i need help to make my stream less laggy
@wheat dome 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 For the best OBS support, please join their Official Discord @ discord.gg/obsproject
How would i run SRT using OBS?
you can not add that has a docc, for obs does not see you as a streamer nor a mod nor anyone
and that is the que for channel points request
so if thats the case that seems like a bug due to the fact we link our obs to our twitchs
not a bug, its not a feature that has been added to obs afaik
may have to ask the discords boyz if they have plans to add it or maybe have a work around

i cant get my overlays to show in obs live and i dont know why?
@modern dagger The default resolution for StreamElements overlays (theme and custom) is 1920x1080. Please add them in OBS at their full resolution and use CTRL+F to fit to screen if necessary. You can then downscale your stream in OBS settings > Video if you'd like https://i.imgur.com/6bWXxjR.png
i do all that but it still does not show?

How does one use tip requests?
You tip and the message is !sr song?
(media request tipped requests)
go here https://streamelements.com/dashboard/mediarequest/settings and you should see a settings then when in it you should see media request Mode turn on Free Via Tip or ** Both**
that should enable tip on media request for you
I wanted to know how the tipping for requesting works though
If it's going to the SE donation link, and tipping with the !sr on the message of the donation
Hey all,
Is there a way to switch accounts inside obslive?
I want to use 2 different accounts (not at the same time)
@vital trellis who is he?
2 SE accounts

@stiff python Streamelements on top of OBS -> Logout -> login
if ^^^^ that is the only way that's cool but hoped for a nice "change account" feature 🙂
can someone help
Hello, i want to share a overlay with my friend, how to share it?
Staff is looking into it @vital trellis
thx
@supple owl you can share it by Dm'n the link that the overlay created or you can invite your friend as an editor and he can take the link from there from the overlay dashboard
the same link as if you added it to obs as a browser source
i tried that and the overlay is not adding to his "My Overlays" panel
which browser are they using?
chrome
ask them to try the link in incognito?
that youre sharing
if not DM the link to it an ill see if it works on my end
ok so i found another way.
Basically what I the situation i:
I have 2 twitch channels i manage.
I want to tipping to be apart from each other.
So that is why i am trying to switch accounts.
Seems that i can just add another channel to my own account and get seperate it inside one SE account.
No further help needed!
My 3 goals that i have made and used for like weeks until today, dont show on the site neither on obs, can someone help me?
Checking
Hi, what is the way to import my files back into obs? I had to reinstall windows but kept files. Can this be done?
If you've kept the scene collection and profile files, then the same way you exported those there is an import button
I didn't export them , had an iastore.sys error , couldn't back anything up
except for local files which should still be there.
Is there a way to restore them or do i need to begin all over again.
usually profile and scene collection information is stored in "My Documents"
then your other hope is using the backup system we have in OBS.Live if you've used it recently
other than that, no other way
@mental egret goals should be back now - reload the overlay if you have it loaded somewhere
yeah they are good now, thanks alot! 🙂 @shy mountain
Guys if i uninstall obs and reinstall it i'll lose all my settings,overlays...?
Elgato HD 60 S is loosing audio but not video , any ideas? Its a 2 pc setup and fresh copies of windows on it running voicemeeter potato
@stone valve no
@hardy tulip If you are having issues with Streamdeck or Elgato capture cards, its best to ask in their Discord here: https://discord.gg/elgato
i can't get obs live to start it. if i start streamelements obs live i get put in obs studio but with streamelements options. And i cant find an option to go OBS live
Do you see StreamElements at the top in OBS?
Restart OBS.
When you see StreamElements at the top, select StreamElements > Log in.
If you see Log out, log out and log back in.
What changed?
now i'm in obs live thank you
Hello my name is shyraanaa and i wanted to ask somthing. I use streamelements with obs and my activity feed is really strange. Donations are 3 times there. (every donation also counts three times). Can i somehow update my activity feed or the dashboard? It's wrong on obs and my stream elements dashboard. One more thing how can I use alerts in obs ? I can't find it. Thanks for helping and have a nice day 🙂
@jaunty agate To add your overlays to OBS, add a new browser source in your scene. Paste your overlay URL in the browser source properties, set the dimensions to 1920x1080 (unless you changed them on the website), and ☑ “Shutdown source when not visible” https://youtu.be/KDvLynUqXI4
@jaunty agate Streamelements on top of OBS -> Logout -> login
Is the data fixed in the OBS acfivity feed after a relog?
Do you have a screenshot of that please.
sure
@jaunty agate Please provide your account ID found at the top of this page: https://streamelements.com/dashboard/account/channels This ID is public info and safe to share here.
this is my account id 5e59a2f56d39bf3ad861a635
Are the tips also not represented in your revenue history?
@jaunty agate Streamelements on top of OBS -> Logout -> login
U mean this?
I mean this: https://streamelements.com/dashboard/tipping/list
Also try to relog in the dashboard please.
Does anyone knows why does my OBS opens like 9 processes and those ones EAT my CPU. Anyone who has the same insue?
If you know how to fix it pls hit me up.
https://gyazo.com/105889cf73f802114e5d35f4537e1ace
that's not 7 processes
Well they are more
Idk thats why I am asking for help
so, what's the name say of the process?
browser sources 🙂
Well is there anything that I can do about that?
if unneccessary to stay active (on other scene(s))
besides that it's everything browser source(s) related.
browser source properties
I used to stream with streamlabs but elements its beter
eh i tried to relog into my dashboard but it didnt help
dont get me wrong @languid bolt , ill give you an answer and such, but i do promote self understanding of issues before handing out an answer
Well it kinda helped tks
so, any other sources, high fps, etc
Oh okay no problem :D
@jaunty agate Can you DM me a screenshot of the https://streamelements.com/dashboard/tipping/list please.
@jaunty agate That "multiply" is only for tips or for other events, too?
ok. Thank you. I will forward the data to Staff internally.
thank you so much
@jaunty agate Most likely you imported your tips multiple times.
We can mass delete the imported tips and you can import them again if you would like.
i think that sounds good
@jaunty agate Your imported tips have been deleted.
thanks again!
So this is about the 5th time I've done it but every time I update the custom bot name somehow it keeps changing back to "StreamElements" idky
Any ideas?
Mod the StreamElements bot first.
Then try this:
- Right click on your OBS desktop shortcut -> properties - in the "Target" field add this -> --remote-debugging-port=40404
- Open OBS(or restart if it was open)
- Open your browser and type in "localhost:40404"
- Click on "StreamElements - Activity feed"
- navigate to the Console tab
- type in the console this: store.customBot.removeCustomBotIntegration() and hit enter
- Try setting the custom bot name
- remove the added addition of step 1
yes, just add --remote-debugging-port=40404 to it.
mhm
lol this is a lot of errors
i think it worked!
thank you!
ok nvm haha
i closed obs and it went back to StreamElements
does it only work when obs.live is open
Settings > Stream
Yes, disable the test mode.
Settings > Stream
Have you disabled the test mode?
Do you have a screenshot of your Settings > Stream page.
At the end of your streamkey, is there something like ?bandwidthtest=true?

hello can someone help me as to why alt wont cut the edges off of a game capture. Its almost zooming in and out instead of cutting it like normal with the green line
@rugged quail Streamelements on top of OBS -> Logout -> login
@merry glacier You can crop with alt and shift.
yeah but alt normall cuts the edges off but it isnt its zooming in and out
like so when using alt
normally it cuts off the edges

google isn't helping. How do I add a custom transition?
Add a stinger transition to your transition settings.
I mean. How do you google?
For all those people who find it more convenient to bother you with their question rather than search it for themselves.
hi guys i'm currently having an issue with the alert overlays.
i've attempted a tutorial and i believe that the alerts are still not working
@shadow jungle OBS -> settings -> advanced -> scroll down -> enable/disable hardware accel.

disable that
disabled it but still not working
is your overlay set to 1920x1080?
The default resolution for StreamElements overlays (theme and custom) is 1920x1080. Please add them in OBS at their full resolution and use CTRL+F to fit to screen if necessary. You can then downscale your stream in OBS settings > Video if you'd like https://i.imgur.com/6bWXxjR.png
So my media request is just blank, is there a way to solve this?
I have two user accounts. One account I want to use OBS.LIVE for twitch streaming. The other account I use OBS to record and stream to other services and do not want OBS.LIVE. Currently when I launch OBS in both accounts OBS.LIVE loads. Is there a way to deactivate OBS.LIVE in one user account on Windows 10?
I guess on one OBS Instance that is currently active you go on the Tab "StreamElements" and go to "Switch to OBS Studio" Maybe that helps @real wigeon
hello. for some reason I am not going live on streamelements, using streamelements-obs. so the bot is not functioning and the partner programs are not tracking.
I have reinstalled the app. I have reconnected the keys. and disconnected and reconnected the bot. what should I do next?
also test messages work just fine, just nothing automated works, everything that was working untill a few days ago
yh they on it apparently
okay so this is the current issue, not just me?
no been like it for a couple of days for me too all works fine even when i test widgets but soon as i stream nothing updates say if i get a follower
okay, been loosing my mind trying to figure this out, and there is no announcement. Thank you! I am going to go do my thing now.
you on mixer or twitch

how do i add a song to a overlay and get it to play
Hello all , A new streamer here ! Hope we are all staying safe I am in need of some OBS.live help
I have a gaming system which consists of : I9 9900kf, RTX 2070 super, 32gb ram and my upload speeds are 20.83 Mbps.
I keep getting bad dropped frames and I am very confused of why it keeps happening, Below are my settings
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.
Only had 1 running
Also, don't enable "Look Ahead" as it screws with quality in fast paced games and put your B-Frames back to 2.
You have to stop the stream or no results will show in the log
That's your last log
But there's profiler stuff at the very bottom of the log, meaning that OBS got closed
Also, there's no streaming attempt in it and has your old settings like resolution
20:24:21.813: base resolution: 1920x1080
20:24:21.813: output resolution: 1600x900```
- Restart OBS
- Start your stream/recording for about 30 seconds. Make sure you replicate any issues as best you can, which means having any games/apps open and captured, etc.
- Stop your stream/recording.
- Select Help > Log Files > Upload Current Log File. Copy the URL and paste the link here.
(Note: If you do not see an obsproject.com URL, you will need to update OBS Studio to version 22+)
^
Do this. EVERY step is important
and, to be 100% sure you're not running multiple instances
im not getting alert on my overlay -.-
There's no need to use CMD. Multiple instances were in the old log, not in the current which lacked the stream attempt
doesn't hurt to be sure 
@grim forum Do you have an alert box in your overlay?
No dropped frames in this log
How do you knows you have dropped frames?
@grim forum Do you have an alert box in your overlay?
@steel mural yea 🙂
It's on my 3rd monitor
What?
So i can see OBS studio
Do you actually see "Dropped Frames" or Rendering / Encoding lag?
it work when i "emulate" but not on stream
With emulate, you mean in the overlay editor or in OBS?
in the editor yes
Do you actually see "Dropped Frames" or Rendering / Encoding lag?
@steel mural
I actually see dropped frames. I'm just resuming the stream, and i will stop the stream once i get dropped frames again.
oh i cant remember , literally.
look at that next time
I'm just resuming now so we shall see.
Do you see that in OBS or do you have your stream open on your third monitor? Because:
~500 dropped frames (<1%) is nothing to really cause panic about..
@grim forum Is this box checked when emulating alerts?
@grim forum Is this box checked when emulating alerts?
@steel mural yes
@grim forum OBS -> settings -> advanced -> scroll down -> enable/disable hardware accel.
https://i.imgur.com/ggMe9ZE.png
After that restart OBS and try to emulate it again
nope, didnt work
Please go to Help > Log Files > Upload Current log and paste the link here
I don't see a problem in your log 🤔
:(the "test" come truth but not real sparks
So the emulation did work?
yea, but the real not work
Check the pinned message in #651453660810838026
might just go back to streamlabs :/ this seems good but :/
Yh I know what ya mean its been 2 days now not working and no info other that check pinned messages which say they don't work no eta
does SE or Ground Control allow for media request txt files? So I can play a scrolling text on song name and requester? (i use SE for things but use SLOBS for obs)
help! stream chat text font isn't translating onto OBS, just in the editor
@light sage StreamElements is a cloud-based system that does not ever reference local files. The Now Playing widget can be added to your overlay to display the song name when using media request.
@slim dock If you installed the font while OBS was open, try restarting OBS.
ok thanks @tulip hamlet
Are the "enter" and "exit" animations operating correctly within the streamelements web site, or am I possibly doing something wrong?
can i record local gameplay whit obs live? or its is only for live streaming?
OBS.Live is just a plugin for OBS Studio, and OBS Studio does of course have a recording function.
thanks!
Hi
can anybody help me?
@open shore 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.
How can I pass streamlabs scenes to Streamelements.
When I open Stream Element it asks me if I want to link the accounts with streamers to pass alerts to pass the scenes AND when the scenes happened. When I see them, nothing comes out, the images or anything do not load me
Take a screenshot.
😫
@open shore Please provide a proper screenshot with the issue visible. If not sure how to take a screenshot, you can check here: https://www.take-a-screenshot.org/
Now what exactly is the issue in this image?
As an arrangement that does not leave me anything neither the colors nor the frame or anything as an arrangement that is already supposed to happen and I only see everything gray
Can you try rewriting that a bit more clearly? You're making no sense.
do you speak Spanish?
@open shore Please ask for assistance in the #🇪🇸︱español channel.
When I show the media player in my stream it plays over itself and you hear it twice.
@feral lily Make sure to ☑️ “Shutdown source when not visible” for all browser sources (all OBS scenes). If using studio mode, uncheck “Swap Preview/Output scenes After Transitioning.” Also keep in mind that sound can play from any overlay loaded in the browser (editor or launched). https://i.imgur.com/6bWXxjR.png https://i.imgur.com/yY0wcFl.png

@obsidian thistle 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
@obsidian thistle Please ask your question in one helpdesk channel only. A support volunteer or StreamElements staff member will assist you as soon as they are available. Asking in multiple places will only result in confusion, not faster answers. Thank you for your patience.

@potent nimbus did your viewers mention anything to you?
i dont get any viewers 🙂
do a little recording to test if you actually are getting your audio input
ok 1 sec
Check this on Settings, are your devices correctly selected?
My, mic was coming through,. but my desktop audio was not

that's normal, twitch channels points aren't connected to StreamElements
@honest echo Damn, is there a way to get it added to OBS Live? I can't have my browser open while streaming....
you could add this urL as custom dock : https://www.twitch.tv/popout/USERNAME/reward-queue (replace USERNAME with your twitch username)
and take a look into this custom made widget :

Did you change the USERNAMEpart of it? try it on your browser first (please be google chrome 😉 )
I got it figured out, had to do something wonky but it's good now lol
Boa noite .... Depois da ultima atualização do OBS minha placa de captura não quer mais funcionar no aplicativo vinda do PS4... Preciso de ajuda
@limpid solstice try #🇵🇹︱português 😉
So when i media share, and show on stream, the sound is double. I have already tried different OBS versions, i've tried shutdown when source is not visible. I can't seem to figure it out.
added example

@plain dome Make sure to ☑️ “Shutdown source when not visible” for all browser sources (all OBS scenes). If using studio mode, uncheck “Swap Preview/Output scenes After Transitioning.” Also keep in mind that sound can play from any overlay loaded in the browser (editor or launched). https://i.imgur.com/6bWXxjR.png https://i.imgur.com/yY0wcFl.png
^ not working
I'm 99% sure this is the issue - you are missing an overlay with the media request widget in it and using this option on it.
the echo happens both in OBS and when using media share in the browser dashboard
so you are using the dashboard MR as well?
MR?
Media Request
I've tried both, but they are not up at the same time, no
but it happens with both?
meaning, the MR dock in OBS and the dashboard?
the double sound?
yeah
do you have the editor open while having the overlay open in OBS?
no
and also, in my volume mixer, only OBS is showing as playing
i don't get it really
has been bothering me for days
okay so, i tried disabling the browser source when it was playing
enabling it fixed it, but when i pressed pause and started again it happened
OH SHIT
one was smaller and behind the bigger one
i knew i should have taken a look at the overlay sooner 
cuz it didn't make sense to me with just 1 scene and browser source
to hear double
But this is a first honestly - 2 MR widgets in 1 overlay
hey, you made me note this in case someone else gets it
cuz i've never seen anyone have 2 MR widgets

Thanks my dude 

one more thing! can you play playlists with MR?
ya
via the backup playlist option only
my OBS is crashing when I try to open it as administrator. if I run it without admin, my scenes don't show up. I've un/reinstalled it, and it's still doing the same thing.
@ashen hull A crash log is required to investigate the cause of your issue. Please upload the last crash log.

If you are not able to follow the above steps, open your file explorer and go here:%appdata%\obs-studio\crashesand provide the last listed file.
my alerts arent showing up in the editor or obs.live
@normal heath You can test Alerts via the bell on the lower right corner of the Overlay Editor. Simply go to your Dashboard -> My Overlays -> Pencil/edit button on the overlay. Make sure the "Preview LIVE on stream" option is on to see the alert in OBS/Xsplit https://streamable.com/vtulg9
Reinstall OBS.Live and maybe OBS Studio as well.
Meaning, Uninstall obs.live, uninstall OBS Studio, install OBS Studio and then OBS.Live
Already done that
yeah that didnt work for my alerts
is there any staff on that could help with alerts?
