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.

odd kraken
#

@fallen hamlet After you entered the line in console and hit enter, you cannot set the bot name?

fallen hamlet
#

let me check again

steel bladeBOT
#

@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

fallen hamlet
#

@odd kraken there is still no option

odd kraken
#

What is this screenshot for? This is your activity feed in your browser, not the one in your OBS.

fallen hamlet
#

hmm

#

my activity feed in my obs has nothing in it?

steel bladeBOT
#

@fallen hamlet Streamelements on top of OBS -> Logout -> login

fallen hamlet
odd kraken
#

Use the StreamElements activity feed please.

fallen hamlet
#

that first screen shot is my streamelements activity feed

odd kraken
#

It is not the Streamelements activity feed in OBS.Live.

#

In your OBS.Live: select StreamElements > Activity feed.

fallen hamlet
#

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?

odd kraken
#

Should not be needed to do every time. If this keeps happening, come back here please.

fallen hamlet

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)

wicked plaza
#

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?

odd kraken
#

Check margins in the advanced text settings.

wicked plaza
#

everything looks ok

odd kraken
#

check the margins in the advanced text settings please.

wicked plaza
#

these?

odd kraken
#

yes.

wicked plaza

#

oh wait what the heck

ionic yarrow
#

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?

wild hazel
#

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

honest echo
#

@wild hazel can you share a screenshot of your alertbox?

steel bladeBOT
wild hazel
#

I haven't tried it in a live stream setting, just the preview.

jagged mica
#

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.

honest echo
wild hazel
#

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?

honest echo
#

@wild hazel delete the alertbox widget and add it again should solve this

thick wadi
#

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

honest echo
#

@thick wadi don't ping people, when somebody is available will jump to answer, please a little patience

thick wadi
#

okay sorry

honest echo
thick wadi
#

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.

rugged quail
#

my obs moved all assets to the middle of the scene when changing scene

#

for no apparent reason

honest echo
#

@Zwompy#6455 sadly, thats its something that could happen i hope you will be able to move things around as you need 👍

crimson osprey
#

is there a way to get my obs from showing twitch follows and such

#

to facebook?

rugged quail
#

@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

steel bladeBOT
crimson osprey
#

how can I change my streamelements platform?

rugged quail
#

I appreciate the support, but OBS' help on that discord is non-existant

steel bladeBOT
#

@crimson osprey Streamelements on top of OBS -> Logout -> login

honest echo
#

@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

karmic jewel
#

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. \

honest echo
#

@karmic jewel yeah, just to keep the order

karmic jewel

shy mountain
crimson osprey
#

wait what

#

im so sorry

#

thanks tho

sick hedge
#

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.

shy mountain
#

for stream to see?

#

sure i guess

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.

sweet thank you

trail gale
#

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?

shy mountain
#

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

trail gale
#

But Can I get the SLOBS 😆thing To work?

shy mountain
#

Ask SL's support

trail gale
#

Who damn man you are talking to me like I know everything bit more detail please

shy mountain
#

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.

trail gale
#

Thank You for the assistance

trail gale
#

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

shy mountain
#

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

unkempt cave
#

the streamlabs remote app only works with streamlabs obs and not with obs studio/obs live

trail gale
#

the online web thingy? excuse me guys I am still learning please help

unkempt cave
#

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

trail gale
#

CONFUSED 😕

shy mountain
#

OBS.Live (or us) does NOT have a remote control app.

#

Simple as that.

trail gale
#

Ok cool I will leave it there but touch portal will work?

wary dew
#

touchportal or a stream deck should work yes

trail gale
#

Thank YOu

haughty walrus
#

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)

shy mountain
#

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

haughty walrus
#

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!

rugged quail
#

Hi! I created my stream overlays online, but how do i get them into obs live?

steel bladeBOT
#

@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.

@lunar quiver Right click on the BrowserSource > Properties > Scroll down a bit > Refresh Cache of current page

lunar quiver

@steel blade I tried it, but no changes

shy mountain
lunar quiver
#

Yes in the preview it works, but its not showing up in obs

#

The video and sound of my allerts work, but

steel bladeBOT
#

@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

lunar quiver
#

@steel blade Tried it but no changes

shy mountain
#

@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

lunar quiver
shy mountain
#

thats UHD right?

lunar quiver
#

Yes

shy mountain
#

hit CTRL +F

#

and see if that helps

lunar quiver

no 🥺 thanks for your help btw

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?

steel bladeBOT

#

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 :

  1. Desktop audio (anything that the computer "emits" except a few things)
  2. Musics & communications (so that I.e. i can have a pause scene where everything's off except music)
  3. 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?

Do you have a screenshot of your OBS please.

Close and reopen the dock with StreamElements > Chat
reload the dock with the reload in the top left of the dock.

Restart your OBS

#

@rugged quail What events are not shown?

rugged quail
#

nothing new in 3 days... the likes shares follows i have gotten , havent been showing in my alert feed

pulsar roost
#

@odd kraken Still the same

odd kraken
#

In the activity feed, press the refresh session button please. @rugged quail

pulsar roost
#

everything was working fine till this last update

rugged quail
#

ok, now nothing is displayed in the feed window, even the stuff from 3 days ago is gone

odd kraken
#

You referring to twitch right?

rugged quail
#

obs

odd kraken
#

What plafrom do you stream on?

#

I just followed you on twitch, do you see my follow in your twitch activity feed?

rugged quail
#

yep i just got yours, cool thanks! now will it work for facebook alerts also? thats where i normally stream

odd kraken
#

Try to do the same and log out of your dashboard and log back in.

pulsar roost
#

Anyway to fix the chat connection?

odd kraken
#

I asked internally if someone of the other support membes knows.

pulsar roost
#

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

fierce silo
#

Not sure if this an OBSLive question, but my Chatbox clears every so often. Anyone know how to stop that?

rugged quail
#

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...

odd kraken
#

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.

rugged quail
#

ill have my daughter log in and try to like a video

odd kraken
#

We do not get the following events from Facebook:

  • Shares
  • Likes on the stream
rugged quail
#

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

odd kraken
#

Like said, we do not get past events if we missed them. New events should show up after the relog.

rugged quail
#

they arent..

#

im about to just give up

odd kraken
#

Asked staff internally on your issue.

rugged quail
#

just created a test stream on my facebook channel, can you please try to send me an alert of somekind

steel bladeBOT
rugged quail
#

ok i think i did it

odd kraken
#

@rugged quail I cannot access the linked account.

vital mauve
#

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?

steel bladeBOT
#

@vital mauve Streamelements on top of OBS -> Logout -> login

rugged quail
#

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

odd kraken
#

Just got the info that there might be issues with Facebook events. No ETA on a fix.

rugged quail
#

goodness!

#

those scandelous ole devils!

pulsar roost
#

@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

twilit holly
#

my obs.live actions on my elgato stream deck dont work and say they are offline... how do I fix this?

steel bladeBOT
#

@twilit holly - Open %appdata%\Elgato\StreamDeck\Plugins

  • Delete the com.streamelements.obslive.sd plugin folder
rugged quail
#

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?

odd kraken
#

Do you have a screenshot of that error message please?

#

Also have you tried to start it as admin?

rugged quail
#

yes i have

#

and OBS was working great yesterday

odd kraken
#

Try to reinstall OBS.Live.

rugged quail
#

okay, reinstalling it, will this delete all my overlays and my settings?

odd kraken
#

You can save them with copying the %appdata%/obs-studio folder to a save location.

twilit holly
#

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

tidal dove
#

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?

honest echo
#

@tidal dove Try using gif and audio instead of a video on your store item

tidal dove
#

@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

dapper fractal
#

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 ?

odd kraken
#

@dapper fractal You can import the alertbox from StreamLabs via OBS.Live.

dapper fractal
#

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

odd kraken
#

You would need to use our overlays with the imported alertbox and use our tipping link.

rocky tulip
#

hey I've got a problem with my activity feed im getting followers but the notification is not coming through can anyone help ?

dapper fractal
#

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.

odd kraken
#

@rocky tulip When you replay the event in your activity feed, does the alert pop up in your OBS?

rocky tulip
#

no

odd kraken
#

@dapper fractal You can find your tipping link in your tipping settings > tipping settings > panel setup.

steel bladeBOT
#

@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

odd kraken
#

@rocky tulip Readd the overay with the alertbox like the bot requested.

rocky tulip
dapper fractal
#

@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

rocky tulip
#

so everything else except my followers are coming through

odd kraken
#

@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?

rocky tulip
#

yeah

odd kraken
#

That is your activity feed, not the alertbox in the overlay.
Did you just get an alert?

rocky tulip
#

wdym

odd kraken
#

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
#

i didnt get the alert no

steel bladeBOT
#

@rocky tulip Right click on the BrowserSource > Properties > Scroll down a bit > Refresh Cache of current page

odd kraken
#

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?

rocky tulip
#

no i don't hear or see the follower ones but the other ones i do

dapper fractal
#

any specific reason why when trying to import overlays while in obs.live it gives me failed importing scene collection every time?

odd kraken
#

@rocky tulip Replay an event from the activity feed? Do you see the alert in your overlay editor?

honest echo
#

@dapper fractal some big assets or copyright ones

odd kraken
#

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
rocky tulip
#

yeah i do

dapper fractal
#

so chances are if i've already bought an owned.tv overlay through streamlabs, ill have to go directly to owned.tv and repurchase to get it into streamelements?

odd kraken
#

@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.

dapper fractal
#

ok ty

rocky tulip
#

yeah i did that and it comes up but i need to see if it will for a real follow

odd kraken
#

Did you get an alert?

rocky tulip
#

no

odd kraken
#

Is there a new follow in your activity feed?

rocky tulip
#

no

steel bladeBOT
rocky tulip
#

i already tried this

steel bladeBOT
rocky tulip
#

the page is white

honest echo
#

Try on chrome

steel bladeBOT
#

@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.

rocky tulip
#

where am i putting my account id then

odd kraken
#

Here please.

rocky tulip
#

well where is the id ?

#

thats it

honest echo
#

ok i will take a look

rocky tulip

hey its came up there that you followed in the activity feed i think it might be fixed

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

odd kraken

What do you see when you access the page? Do you have a screeshot?

Just a white page

@novel jay 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.

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

honest echo
#

@sinful crescent you need to add the Mediashare widget on your overlay in order to show the video on your stream

sinful crescent
#

Could you help me?

tender python
#

@sinful crescent you need to add the Mediashare widget on your overlay in order to show the video on your stream
@sinful crescent

sinful crescent
#

where?

#

I have the widget now within obs

#

but the video wont show on stream

tardy void
#

It may not show if you did not restart / refresh your overlay @sinful crescent

#

Have had that happen a few times.

sinful crescent
#

no active widgets error

tardy void
#

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?

sinful crescent
#

it's working now

#

im so happy

#

😄

placid oar
#

hi how do i add donation overlays to my stream

#

i found some templates

#

but idk how to add to my stream

honest echo
#

@tardy void we don't support multistreaming, and you will see the alerts of the overlay that you added on OBS

steel bladeBOT
#

@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

@honest echo Gotcha. Thank you.

I guess I will just stream to individual platforms then. Probably the best.

honest echo
#

maybe you need to take a look at this video

sinful crescent
#

is it possible my volume changes for viewers?

#

Like sometimes it sounds loud, sometimes it doesnt

#

even tho im not changing anything

honest echo
#

Thats depends on the video, you could use the !volume 20 command

#

even on youtube some videos are louder than others

sinful crescent
#

hard to describe

#

but they say when the bass kicks in

#

The volume lowers

#

Is that an obs setting?

placid oar
#

the latests followers and subscribers are showing random names what should i do?

honest echo
#

@sinful crescent not afaik

#

@placid oar save and refresh

placid oar
#

ok ty

#

after i change the height of the goal bars and save it doesnt save them

#

Hi! Can I get some help getting a custom alert overlay to work with OBS?

honest echo
#

@placid oar wdym?

austere ibex
#

Actually it's getting late, I'll check back in tomorrow

honest echo
#

@austere ibex a custom alert should be setup on the alertbox widget and then the widget on your overlay

steel bladeBOT
#

@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

austere ibex
#

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.

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 🙂

mortal aurora
#

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.

robust fog
#

hey, any fix for this? ive been googling for an hour and nothing worked

odd kraken
#

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.

robust fog
odd kraken
#

Then something else is blocking the connection.

robust fog
#

You were right @odd kraken its solved, thank you

odd kraken
#

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

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.

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

frank flint
#

how do i remove a channel owner

steel bladeBOT
#

@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.

There is not. What platform do you stream to?
what issues are you having with the widget?

swift nymph

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.

See pinned messages.

chilly basalt
#

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?

odd kraken
#

You use animated overlays?

chilly basalt
#

yes sir

odd kraken
#

Then most likely the PC cannot handle the load of the animations.

chilly basalt
#

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!

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

You tip and the message is !sr song?
(media request tipped requests)

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

requesting via tip involves your tipping page

Hello, i want to share a overlay with my friend, how to share it?

late furnace
#

Staff is looking into it @vital trellis

vital trellis
#

thx

late furnace
#

@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

supple owl
#

i tried that and the overlay is not adding to his "My Overlays" panel

late furnace
#

which browser are they using?

supple owl
#

chrome

late furnace
#

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

stiff python
#

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!

Hi, what is the way to import my files back into obs? I had to reinstall windows but kept files. Can this be done?

shy mountain
#

If you've kept the scene collection and profile files, then the same way you exported those there is an import button

hardy tulip
#

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.

shy mountain
#

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

shy mountain
#

@mental egret goals should be back now - reload the overlay if you have it loaded somewhere

mental egret

yeah they are good now, thanks alot! 🙂 @shy mountain

@jaunty agate That "multiply" is only for tips or for other events, too?

jaunty agate
#

just tipps

#

tips

odd kraken
#

ok. Thank you. I will forward the data to Staff internally.

jaunty agate
#

thank you so much

odd kraken
#

@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.

jaunty agate
#

i think that sounds good

odd kraken
#

@jaunty agate Your imported tips have been deleted.

jaunty agate
#

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?

odd kraken
#

Mod the StreamElements bot first.

#

Then try this:

  1. Right click on your OBS desktop shortcut -> properties - in the "Target" field add this -> --remote-debugging-port=40404
  2. Open OBS(or restart if it was open)
  3. Open your browser and type in "localhost:40404"
  4. Click on "StreamElements - Activity feed"
  5. navigate to the Console tab
  6. type in the console this: store.customBot.removeCustomBotIntegration() and hit enter
  7. Try setting the custom bot name
  8. remove the added addition of step 1
burnt horizon
#

oh jeez i didnt even notice lol,

#

do i add that field at the end?

odd kraken
#

yes, just add --remote-debugging-port=40404 to it.

burnt horizon
#

mhm i tried both in the quotes and out

tender python
#

add a space.

#

exe --remote.. etc

#

windows be like that

burnt horizon
#

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

odd kraken
#

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

steel bladeBOT
#

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

odd kraken
#

@merry glacier You can crop with alt and shift.

merry glacier
#

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

steel bladeBOT
odd kraken
#

@rugged quail Then contact the OBS guys.

Add a stinger transition to your transition settings.

I mean. How do you google?

hi guys i'm currently having an issue with the alert overlays.

disable that

disabled it but still not working

#

is your overlay set to 1920x1080?

steel bladeBOT
#

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?

real wigeon
#

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?

analog fjord
#

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

lusty depot
#

yh they on it apparently

twilit crown
#

okay so this is the current issue, not just me?

lusty depot
#

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

twilit crown
#

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.

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

tender python
#

dropped frames?

#

!obslog

steel bladeBOT
#

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.

tender python
wintry kiln
#

Only had 1 running

tender python
#

log says otherwise

#

log dont lie.

wintry kiln
#

ok i will start my stream again.

#

and i shall wait for the dropped frames.

steel mural
#

Also, don't enable "Look Ahead" as it screws with quality in fast paced games and put your B-Frames back to 2.

wintry kiln
#

standby

#

this is current.

steel mural
#

You have to stop the stream or no results will show in the log

wintry kiln
steel mural
#

That's your last log

wintry kiln
#

nope

#

the one i JUST did

steel mural
#

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```
tender python
#

and still 20:24:21.426: User is now running multiple instances of OBS!

wintry kiln
#

so odd tho

#

i have no task for oOBS

steel mural
#

Upload your current log again

#

Wait you closed OBS?

wintry kiln
#

i've closed it now

#

JUST

tender python
#

listen. reset.

#

start stream > stop stream > hit exit

steel mural
#

Wait Jay

#

!cleanlog

steel bladeBOT
#
  1. Restart OBS
  2. Start your stream/recording for about 30 seconds. Make sure you replicate any issues as best you can, which means having any games/apps open and captured, etc.
  3. Stop your stream/recording.
  4. Select Help > Log Files > Upload Current Log File. Copy the URL and paste the link here.

(Note: If you do not see an obsproject.com URL, you will need to update OBS Studio to version 22+)

tender python
#

^

steel mural
#

Do this. EVERY step is important

tender python
#

and, to be 100% sure you're not running multiple instances

grim forum
#

im not getting alert on my overlay -.-

tender python
steel mural
#

There's no need to use CMD. Multiple instances were in the old log, not in the current which lacked the stream attempt

tender python
#

doesn't hurt to be sure pepo_shrug

steel mural
#

@grim forum Do you have an alert box in your overlay?

wintry kiln
steel mural
#

No dropped frames in this log

wintry kiln
#

Yet.

#

But i usually get 30 - 700

steel mural
#

How do you knows you have dropped frames?

grim forum
#

@grim forum Do you have an alert box in your overlay?
@steel mural yea 🙂

wintry kiln
#

It's on my 3rd monitor

steel mural
#

What?

wintry kiln
#

So i can see OBS studio

steel mural
#

Do you actually see "Dropped Frames" or Rendering / Encoding lag?

grim forum
#

it work when i "emulate" but not on stream

steel mural
#

With emulate, you mean in the overlay editor or in OBS?

grim forum
#

in the editor yes

wintry kiln
#

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.

tender python
#

listen, 2-5 drop frames

#

dont hassle about that

wintry kiln
#

no no

#

i get over 500

tender python
#

of how many?

#

500 (1%) ?

#

or 500 (25%)

wintry kiln
#

oh i cant remember , literally.

tender python
#

look at that next time

wintry kiln
#

I'm just resuming now so we shall see.

steel mural
#

Do you see that in OBS or do you have your stream open on your third monitor? Because:

tender python
#

~500 dropped frames (<1%) is nothing to really cause panic about..

wintry kiln
#

Left to right - Monitor 1 is twitch.tv - monitor 2 is my game & monitor 3 is obs.live

steel mural
grim forum
#

@grim forum Is this box checked when emulating alerts?
@steel mural yes

steel bladeBOT
steel mural
#

After that restart OBS and try to emulate it again

grim forum
#

nope, didnt work

steel mural
#

Please go to Help > Log Files > Upload Current log and paste the link here

grim forum
steel mural
#

I don't see a problem in your log 🤔

grim forum
#

:(the "test" come truth but not real sparks

steel mural
#

So the emulation did work?

grim forum
#

yea, but the real not work

steel mural
grim forum
#

might just go back to streamlabs :/ this seems good but :/

lusty depot
#

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

light sage
#

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)

slim dock
#

help! stream chat text font isn't translating onto OBS, just in the editor

tulip hamlet
#

@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.

light sage
#

ok thanks @tulip hamlet

grizzled veldt
#

Are the "enter" and "exit" animations operating correctly within the streamelements web site, or am I possibly doing something wrong?

languid sedge
#

can i record local gameplay whit obs live? or its is only for live streaming?

tulip hamlet
#

OBS.Live is just a plugin for OBS Studio, and OBS Studio does of course have a recording function.

languid sedge

thanks!

How can I pass streamlabs scenes to Streamelements.

tulip hamlet
open shore
#

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.

#

I'm new to this sorry

Now what exactly is the issue in this image?

open shore
#

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.

When I show the media player in my stream it plays over itself and you hear it twice.

steel bladeBOT
#

@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

#

my overlays arent showing up and i tried to use the editor it say invalid authorization token

steel bladeBOT
#

@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.

@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

plain dome
#

^ not working

shy mountain
#

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.

plain dome
#

What do you mean?

#

This is my overlay editor

#

This is my obs setup

shy mountain
#

Not in the overlay editor

#

huh

plain dome
#

the echo happens both in OBS and when using media share in the browser dashboard

shy mountain
#

so you are using the dashboard MR as well?

plain dome
#

MR?

shy mountain
#

Media Request

plain dome
#

I've tried both, but they are not up at the same time, no

shy mountain
#

but it happens with both?

#

meaning, the MR dock in OBS and the dashboard?

#

the double sound?

plain dome
#

yeah

shy mountain
#

do you have the editor open while having the overlay open in OBS?

plain dome
#

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

shy mountain
#

you have 2 MR widgets

plain dome
#

OH SHIT

shy mountain
#

i knew i should have taken a look at the overlay sooner ASxd

#

cuz it didn't make sense to me with just 1 scene and browser source

#

to hear double

plain dome
#

HAHAHAHA

#

That fixed it

shy mountain
#

But this is a first honestly - 2 MR widgets in 1 overlay

plain dome
#

i feel so fucking stupid

#

hahahah

shy mountain
#

hey, you made me note this in case someone else gets it

plain dome
#

i must have done that when i set it up

#

a friend was stressing me to put !sr up

shy mountain
#

cuz i've never seen anyone have 2 MR widgets

plain dome
#

so i did it in a hurry

#

Both you and me learned something new

shy mountain
plain dome
#

Thanks my dude PeepoLove

shy mountain
plain dome
#

one more thing! can you play playlists with MR?

shy mountain
#

yes

#

YT ones only

plain dome
#

ya

shy mountain
#

via the backup playlist option only

plain dome
#

aha

#

got it!

#

thanks ❤️
