@normal heath your alerts are paused

#

when you try and emulate an alert via the editor the 'error' pops up in the lower right corner

#

Can anyone tell me why after this last update when I run SE it doesnt capture my capture card when opening and I have to redo every single Video Capture screen? This happens even when I run it in Admin Mode as well.

Im trying to unistall the obs plugin for a full reinstall, and it keeps saying it is aborted

#

can anyone help?

shy mountain
#

Did you uninstall obs studio first?

potent nimbus
#

yeah

late furnace
#

reinstall obs and then uninstall obs.live or it will cause a hang up

#

ok

Try to update you graphics driver.

gloomy sorrel
#

This might be more related with OBS than Streamelements, but I didn't find a solution, so trying here.

Ever since I added a second monitor to me setup de the sound reproduced on twitch form the desktop sources sound a little "metallic". Mic is fine.

Di anyone experience something like this or know how to fix it?
Thanks!

honest sapphire
#

hello there!

#

I know it may seem like a dumb and very obvious question... but I'm having a very hard time trying to find a solution or any posts related to the topic of "how to insert spaces in a long scrolling text in elements?"

#

anyone who can shed some light 😅

#

to make it more clear, I have a long text of several lines, with blank lines in between each line. When add the text widget as a static text, it displays as it should. But I want the the text to scroll up, and then... all of the sudden, all the texts show up altogether without any blank lines

#

is there a way to prevent that? or to force having blank spaces between lines?

ashen hull
#

My OBS crashes when I launch it or it doesn't show my overlays in the browser source. If I launch it as an admin, it still won't show the overlays. I've reinstalled it 3 times.

steel bladeBOT
odd kraken
#

@honest sapphire What widget are you referring to?
Also do you have a screenshot of the message and the actual widget in the overlay please.

honest sapphire
#

I'm using the Static/Custom/Text widget

ashen hull
#

Wow. Quick and simple fix. Thank you.

honest sapphire
#

on the left is the text, with blank lines between paragraphs, as it should be displayed... and on the center, inside the TV screen, how the text actually displays without any blank lines

odd kraken
#

@honest sapphire
Type <br> in in the message where you want to have the returns.

honest sapphire
#

geez... I knew it had to be dumb silly... 😅

#

thank you so much @odd kraken

brave nebula
#

My bot died yesterday and I really need it to work again, I have a custom bot. Doeas anybody know a fix?

shy mountain
#

Is the custom bot not working?

brave nebula
#

yap

shy mountain
#
  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
languid sedge
#

where i put the link to my theme?

brave nebula
#

this is embarrassing but I can't even do step 1)

#

@shy mountain

#

I try to press"Apply" and get what is in the box is not valid

shy mountain
#

"C:\Program Files\obs-studio\bin\64bit\obs64.exe" --remote-debugging-port=40404

#

it needs to look like this

steel bladeBOT
#

@languid sedge 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

plain mason
#

Hi! I tried to use the bot name as my Twitch profile, but I don't found the place to activate it on the Ground Control.

steel bladeBOT
plain mason
#

yes, i tried to follow the instructions in the video and i didn't find what it was needed on Ground Control.

odd kraken
#

Read what the bot posted again.

plain mason
#

@odd kraken i'm using obs.live, ground control, and on the ground control not have the options of the tutorial... did you see in my printscreens?

#

i don't know if is necessary to enable some option... and where.

odd kraken
#

Yes. If you don't want to use OBS.Live and want to stick with Ground Control, please let us know your Twitch username.

#

Also we do not recommend to use both programs at the same time.
So I recommend to set up the custom bot name in OBS.Live

azure barn
#

Newbie question here.... i am setting up alerts on my screen, but on stream the alert is cut off..i watched videos, made sure the size is the same on stream elements dashboard and in obs..

plain sonnet
#

set it as 1920x1080
use ctrl+r then ctrl+f while selecting the alert source if needed

plain mason
#

@odd kraken now i saw that the video was edited using the Feed Activity area of ​​OBS.live... before i hadn't seen it and thought it was on Ground Control.

azure barn
#

@plain sonnet on elements dashboard the overlay is set for 1080p

plain sonnet
#

not on dashboard, in obs

plain mason
#

@azure barn the resolution (screen size) need to have same value on overlay editor and OBS (source > browser (overlay properties)).

fair niche
#

when i open obs my media request widget isnt launching it just stays as a blank window by my preview. i just recently changed my backup playlist url. idk if that might be affecting anything. any fixes?

warm rock
#

Hello, I have a problem with obslive. It recently started crashing, and I wanted to update it to OBS 25. I however get multiple error messages saying "Error opening file for writing" for multiple files like "obs-browser-page.exe" or "obs.streamelements.dll", and several more. I already deinstalled and reinstalled with the installer from the streamelements website, but the same thing happens.

crystal wolf
#

Obs.Live just randomly stopped loading my overlays from StreamElements.com I've reloaded the overlays multiple times with no success. Everything is linked properly

steel bladeBOT
#

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

crystal wolf
#

Thank you, but that did not work. I ended up having to resort to restarting OBS, which was going to be my last resort and that worked. Thanks again

Can PS4 camera be streamed through Streamelements if using Remote play? Or do you need separate camera?

I'm trying to reset the sizes of the canvas

#

Everything is suddenly super large

toxic fern
#

@warm rock make sure OBS is closed when doing this.

warm rock
#

It seemed to me like the updater closed OBS automatically

toxic fern
#

Make sure everything from it is closed. Most likely ghost processes.

#

Especially the mentioned filess.

warm rock
#

Alright, I'll check

plain sonnet
#

what do you mean pop out

#

you cant do that with scenes

Ok, now it just straight up worked. Thank you! Have a nice day

Yo guys I’m trying to capture a web chrome browser window but it only captures a black box. Anyone know how to fix it please?

#

hello, I'm using the alerts that the site provides, I chose the new ones on valorant and they have the option of "Purchase alert", but when I go to do the test to see how it is working, nothing happens, just the voice reading but the animation does not appear.
What am I doing wrong, could someone help me?

plain mason
#

An user is reporting problems with capturing video with OBS.live after it has been updated. He has OBS.live in the latest version (25.0.8 64bit).
He streams by capturing the PS4 video via external capture card FHD, however, only on the PS4 has it stopped working, because on another console it works normally.

#

And the user went to the OBS discord to see if they could help but said the following message: If you suspect that the plugin broke things, I recommend contacting StreamElements.

Make sure you are following all the instructions, especially regarding the dimensions.

dreamy drum
#

hello.. im having problem with display capture.. i see only black screen? any help thanks in advance

tulip hamlet
#

@dreamy drum Laptop?

dreamy drum
#

yees

steel bladeBOT
#

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

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

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

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

hello i need help getting my stream elements stream store into obs . how do i do so

jade matrix
#

When I try streaming on stream elements obs it keeps signing in my activity feed under my twitch account and it doesn’t switch to my mixer account activity feed. What do I do

steel bladeBOT
#

@jade matrix Streamelements on top of OBS -> Logout -> login

wraith lion
#

I'm hoping someone might be able to help. How are we able to stream to someone's channel when given a stream key to stream to it?

#

I went to settings to input the stream key on OBSLive, however, it asks me to log into account. I go to do that and I go to Live Stream and it streams to my channel and not the channel I'm trying to stream to.

jade matrix
#

Thank you

#

Does OBS Live offer the ability to send a tweet when going live?

spare rivet
#

I dont know in what kind of chánnel this belongs. But i am currently having problems with my donation site. On the site there is the "YouTube-Thing" activated. But whatever i try i cannot deactivate it.

#

I don't know where the setting is.

tulip hamlet
#

@restive monolith Auto-tweet is handled on the site, not in OBS.Live itself.

#

@spare rivet Can you screenshot what you're talking about?

spare rivet
#

sure one second

restive monolith
#

@tulip hamlet Ah, thank you - Just noticed the "social media" section

spare rivet
#

this

tulip hamlet
#

@spare rivet This is media request. You need to set media request to "Free" requests only to have this removed. "Both" and "Paid" will result in this appearing on your tipping page.

spare rivet
#

Awesome!"

#

Thanks for the fast support ❤️

native shard
#

Does OBSLive need to be running for custom bot name to stay enabled?

tulip hamlet
#

Yes.

native shard
#

Cool thanks, maybe more of a twitch question, but is there a way add the cog icon instead of the sword icon like Stearm elements?

tulip hamlet
#

The cog is because Twitch recognizes it as a bot.

native shard
#

That's what I assumed.

#

Monitor Only = Only I hear it right?

#

Monitor means Stream hears it too?

tulip hamlet
#

@native shard We cannot assist with audio mixer setups.

Okay, thanks I'll head over to the OBS Discord.

Theme webcams don't display my c922. How do I fix this?

steel bladeBOT

@west zenith 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

tulip hamlet
#

The overlay is just an overlay. It doesn't automatically stick a webcam into the box. That's your job, with a video capture device source.

west zenith
#

No I'm using streamlabs

tulip hamlet
#

Well, we're not Streamlabs, so we can't help you with their system.

west zenith
#

Okay back up...the default "webcam" border needs my source cam added to it?

#

So I add my cam, adjust the size and place it inside the webcam spot?

#

hey guys, tried to fix on my own but getting no where. My webcam randomly wont show in OBS live. It will in the camera app on my computer, and some others but wont in OBS. When i change the resolution around it shows, but only for some resolutions. If i went to change to 1080x720 for example, it wont show. help!!

#

You just answered my question, thank you

gray cosmos
#

I am using stream elements obs live with an legato capture card and a ps4. I have the chat link cable hooked up and all the other cables hooked up correctly. When I open elgato software, the game sound comes through, but when I open obslive, the game sound doesn't come through unless I unplug my chat link cable from my controller, but then I cant talk to my friends or hear the game from my headset. it was working yesterday with the chat link cable plugged in so I was just wondering if there was a permanent solution

steel bladeBOT
#

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

gray cosmos
#

It is only not working when I am in stream elements

tulip hamlet
#

OBS.Live is a plugin for OBS Studio and doesn't affect the core behavior like audio.

#

If it's an issue regarding whether or not your chat link cable is in your controller, then that'll be an issue with the data being processed by Elgato's plugin in OBS.

gray cosmos
#

okay thank you I will ask elgato discord

spare rivet
#

Is there a way to rename the chatbot? I tried to download groundcontrol but i don't have the option to use my own name.

honest echo
#

@spare rivet You need to install obs.live and check the video in the pinned messages 😉

question if anyone is familiar with razer ripsaw and obs.live......

woven hamlet
#

is there a way to automate the raffles?

tulip hamlet
#

Not at this time.

stuck dove
#

I hope this is the right place to ask this. With the Social media section if you have automatic tweeting it would seem if you forget to change your message it will tweet the same?

tulip hamlet
#

Yes, it always tweets exactly what you've put in there.

stuck dove
#

that is not very useful I think

#

it is a great feature but need work which I am sure is happening

#

I am not sure if it is possible but it would be nice to have it only do it once and you have to reenable it every time

#

or at least have that as an option

#

or to just tweet what your stream description is

#

I guess I could make these suggestions in the website suggestion area but wanted to check this is how it was working at the moment

rugged quail
#

for about the past week, whenever someone follows or hosts me or anything that I have set up to do sounds and image alerts, the alerts aren't going off... I have reloaded the overlays, made sure they are all showing in source list, it only works when I test, idk why

dapper panther
#

I feel that the media request volume is too loud, even i only change the volume to 1

shy mountain
#

@dapper panther There should be a volume slider in OBS.Live's MR dock or in the video directly

low ermine
#

Having trouble with SE store sounds. Was told I need an overlay, then was told I needed a widget. I can't seem to find an option for either nor a place to find the info. 👍 😫

shy mountain
dapper panther
#

@shy mountain yeah i already turn the volume slider in MR dock to 1

#

But the volume still very loud

digital crane
#

@shy mountain Why do my song requests say they're not available in my country but, I'm in the US?

steel bladeBOT
#

@digital crane Streamelements on top of OBS -> Logout -> login

shy mountain
#

Try this

#

@dapper panther then adjust your windows volume

dapper panther
#

If i turn down windows volume, it will lower down my entire OBS volume in stream@shy mountain

digital crane
#

Worked @shy mountain

shy mountain
#

Is it loud for you or the stream @dapper panther

dapper panther
#

Both

shy mountain
#

Then lower the windows sound or specifically the OBS sound in the sound mixer

dapper panther
#

I mean

#

My stream volume is good, just the music from MR is loud

shy mountain
#

And what I mean is, that OBS is producing the sound from the MR dock. Meaning that adjust the volume in the windows mixer - if it lowers the MR volume thats good, then readjust every other volume level as well

My overlays would not load?

cursive jay
#

Its on

slim dock
#

@cursive jay just about to ask about that. i'm guessing if it's happening to us it might be something on SE's end

cursive jay
#

What?

slim dock
#

my overlay's aren't loading either

shy mountain
#

It says enable OR disable the option

nimble flare
#

yeah, i've just had a look at my overlays on the streamelements site and they are blank when i open them to edit.

slim dock
#

same here

#

i think something went wrong on streamelement's end of things

shy mountain
#

thats a different type of report

#

but considering everyone is coming to this channel, I'm assuming you are all initially referring to OBS not loading the overlays

thin drum
#

its not loading on the website editor either

slim dock
#

yeah it's not loading on either

thin drum
#

nor is it when i copy the direct preview link to webpage

#

so its not just obs

slim dock
#

^^

thin drum
nimble flare
#

thats the same as im getting

slim dock
#

yup

#

just that screen

cursive jay
#

@thin drum Also got that. And my overlays in OBS to

slim dock
#

but all the video files are there for me when i go into each item

shy mountain
#

Yea i can see that

slim dock
#

so my guess is something is down or not working correctly on SE's end

shy mountain

poking devs right away

hey

median arrow
#

hello i am using laptop for streaming and it has 2 gpu that because game capturing not working for cs go . what can i do for it ?

steel bladeBOT
#

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

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

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

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

how do i install plugins on OBS live?

shy mountain
#

OBS.Live is a plugin for OBS Studio

queen cedar
#

i'm lost

shy mountain
#

OBS.Live is a plugin for OBS Studio - meaning that any plugin that works for OBS Studio should work fine iwth our plugin

queen cedar
#

but how do i install a plugin

#

that's my question

#

i only have the files downloaded

#

Guys, I have a problem. Why my overlay doesnt fit with my OBS?

steel bladeBOT
#

@tawdry widget 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

but could you tell me why if I go live as soon as I arrive at 2 minutes the live stops

#

plss help me

Internet issue most likely. @molten mountain

#

@queen cedar Trust me, you will get better help on how to install plugins there

molten mountain
#

but my ping is low

steel bladeBOT
#

@molten mountain Dropped Frames usually means that you have a bad connection with the streaming service(Twitch/Youtube/Mixer/Facebook) and most likely something related to your ISP not handling the connection properly.
Speed tests usually cannot help solve this problem and its best to use this guide: https://obsproject.com/wiki/Dropped-Frames-and-General-Connection-Issues

molten mountain
shy mountain
#

Speed tests usually cannot help solve this problem

molten mountain
#

ok i resolve

queen cedar
#

yeah, not working at all

#

not even ppl from obs discord found an answer to my issue

shy mountain
#

then contact the creator(s) of the plugin shrugg

queen cedar
#

i can, but i doubt he would ever reply

queen cedar
#

so

#

i dont have the standard OBS installed, i got OBS live only

#

if i perhaps install a plugin in OBS live Plugins folder, should it work normaly?

tender python
#

the plugin folder usually matches the output for the obs folder

#

just drag-drop.

#

if not, a github should have info

#

@queen cedar and by the looks of it, yes. Drop it in there

queen cedar
#

i just figured out the issue

#

since i was trying to use the Deckboard app, and i had to install a Websocket

#

the App is only compatible with standard OBS and not obslive

#

is there a way for me to still use the OBS live layout plugins when launching standard OBS?

tender python
#

Obs.live is Just a plugin.. it doesn't Inherently Change anything to obs..

rugged quail
#

for streamelements is it just obs or streamlabs too

tender python
#

SE = obs studio
SL = SLOBS.

rugged quail
#

ok thank you

tender python
#

You can use SE stuff IN Slobs

#

But not the plugin and such

rugged quail
#

ok

brazen berry
#

hey sorry if im in the wrong section but i cant link my se bot to my fb page, there is no option or i think im just using se wrong. is SE bot compatible in fb live?

queen cedar
#

is there like a way for me to add an chat inside my OBS studio then?

#

just like obs live?

plain sonnet
#

obs.live is obs studio
settings > stream
connect your account

queen cedar
#

will i get those chat layouts in OBS studio just like obs live?

#

cool

#

its taking a while to log in tho

#

Hey there! I've been having a bunch of problems with OBS taking up way too much CPU Power recently, any idea on how to fix it?

#

I let the Configuration Wizard run and had a few tech friends look over it, but nothing really worked so far

#

I also had to remove a Browser Source of a little animation bc it was taking up 30% of my CPU, and I don't have an old computer

tender python
#

Animations, FPS, resolution x amount of sources

#

and " i dont have an old computer " says nothing..

acoustic tinsel
#

I'm...sorry? I wasn't trying to come over rudely. I don't really have a lot of sources, and my Task Manager is telling me the ones I have aren't very CPU-Intensive, just that OBS itself was taking up a lot of it. I didn't have a lot of problems before, and I can't remember changing any of the settings, so I thought I'd just ask what else I could to to reduce framedrops.

tender python
#

easy test

#

new scene: load nothing

#

low cpu?

#

good

#

add sources

#

see when it "goes higher than usual"

acoustic tinsel
#

Guess I'll just try that out again then. I've been wanting to put in a particular browser source, but any time I do that, it takes up half of my CPU. I don't have it in right now bc of that, but I wanted to ask whether it's a bug or if there's any way to convert it to fix it?

#

I hope I can post that in here, but I've really been trying to convert it between different kinds of videos and stuff to get it to run better cause I really like it, but nothing has worked so far.

#

It's just a transparent webm video with pulsating lights, and I really don't know why it would take up that much CPU Power

#

It's really just that one source

queen cedar
#

is there a way i can make the Spectralizer only to recognise my Music, like spotify or something?

tender python
#

the plugin?

#

capture spotify as source w/ audio, select as source.

Hello! II got a question. It may not be possible, nut is it possible to install OBS.Live on the Linux version of OBS Studio? THe installer is an exe file, which is not useful. I have the source code, is there any specific files from there I can just pot on their place, or does it work differently? Thank you!

@dusky mirage 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

Hey! I have a question. I'm having a LOT of issues with freezing and crashing on SLOBS, and all my scenes are there. I think I have to switch to OBS or LIve, but the thing I'm afraid of most is not being able to import my scenes. Am I able to do that?

#

best streaming settings for advanced 720p?

#

Whatever the case may be, I need to switch now, no question

ashen edge
#

Hi

#

i got some problems with the custum alert editing on the website

#

or in the program

fleet barn
#

I keep getting an error message when i launch and it won't let me stream

#

The error message says "Failed to authenticate with Twitch: Failed to get token from remote:"

#

Please someone help i just want to stream

#

I have solved the problem

silver tundra
#

Ok well, it says I can import scenes from Streamlabs but it's stuck on importing alerts. Idk why

#

Its been on 33% for 5 minutes and hasnt moved

tulip hamlet
#

@silver tundra The import will fail if you attempt to upload Streamlabs-owned assets or assets that are too large.

silver tundra
#

Is it just the alerts that are causing this?

#

Or all the scenes I have?

tulip hamlet
#

It can be anything.

#

Oh.

#

It's getting stuck on alerts.

#

So yeah, probably.

silver tundra
#

But I only have the alerts as a browser source. And before I imported I unchecked import alerts

#

yet it's doing it anyway?

#

@tulip hamlet So its at 100% after I deleted some scenes and such but it's still hung up?

pallid junco
steel mural
#

No. OBS.Live overwrites the browser source and gets always launched.

pallid junco
#

I'm using OBS Studio for recordings and need to switch it everytime, it's a bit annoying.

steel mural
#

OBS.Live is just a plugin for OBS Studio, not a separate version like SLOBS

pallid junco
#

Maybe there is launch parameter to launch it with plugins disabled?

steel mural
#

Also no. Especially because OBS.Live overwrites the browser source. It doesn't add files. It replaces them. That means if you'd want to disable OBS.Live, you'd loose your browser source.

pallid junco
#

I see, whatever then. Thanks for explanation.

Upgrading from a 1070 to 2080 Super, would that help the NVENC encoding?

honest echo
#

@native shard of course, and btw everyupgrade helps 😉

native shard
#

I mean, how much could it help? I'm just trying to justify a GPU upgrade lol

steel mural
#

The Turing cards have an upgraded NVENC chip that has on par quality to x264 medium. So quality wise, even a GTX 1650 Super gives you better quality compared to GTX 10xx GPUs

@upper heart 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

native shard
#

Interesting to know. I wonder if it could help with my CPU issues in OBS.Live. When streaming OBS.Live uses roughly 20% CPU while using NVENC Encoding

steel mural
#

High CPU usage is mostly caused by media sources, animated overlays and too many browser docks. NVENC (depending on your CPU of course) shouldn't cause more than 5% CPU usage.

silver tundra
#

Btw does anyone know how to get the Awesome shoutouts widget to display the proper twitch.tv/link for any streamer instead of "vips"?

native shard
#

I have quite a few browser sources, I may need to consolidate them down. I only added one extra dock for Point redemptions.

#

I may need to see what I can do to lower the amount of sources.

Hello, I would like to know to stream a game like Assasins creed Odissey, I encode on the GPU (RTX 2060) or I encode on the CPU (1700X), I think the best is to encode on the CPU to leave all power at play? I am right ?

@pale zealot it depends. CPU encode will give you best quality compared to Nvenc.

@honest echo I've seen and done that, but it does not work and I don't know why. 😦

@novel swift 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

honest echo
#

@spare vigil any error?

novel swift
#

@novel swift Thank you ,so it is better to encode on the CPU
@pale zealot yes, you could set the encoder to CPU medium or fast (the faster you set, the quality gets worst). And you need to check the impact your pc will suffer. Sometimes, even setting the fastest quality option, your CPU can have a hard time to handle it, then would be interesting to use your RTX with new nvenc.

There isn't an easy "Reset Chat" button at all, you have to fully log out and back in for the reset to happen?

yo

#

does this use less resources than obs studio for streaming

tulip hamlet
#

OBS.Live is a plugin for OBS Studio.

worldly canyon
#

so

#

do i get leess resource usage from obs if i use this

#

like in terms of cpu

tulip hamlet
#

In general, using our cloud-based overlay system rather than locally referencing files will result in a bit less usage, but it ultimately depends on your setup. At most it'll be comparable to OBS Studio on its own.

@sleek ermine Restart it again.

sleek ermine

Ok, sec please

@fickle violet Editing a duplicate shouldn't affect the original. The only time editing one source affects another is if you created the source with the "Use existing" option rather than making a new source.

Define "doesn't work" or provide a screenshot.

the "activity feed" does not show new "likes" "shares"

steel bladeBOT
#

@hollow wedge If you are not seeing Likes/Shares on your current stream or page, that might be due to how the privacy settings of the person liking/sharing your stream are set.
If they are set to private we won't be able to see the events.
Specifically for shares, if they share in private groups, we won't be able to see the event.

  1. You are showing a screenshot of OBS and not telling what is the issue
  2. You are saying you have bug...what is the bug exactly? still not saying what the issue is
  3. you are showing a screenshot of the overlay editor with a test alert playing. Assuming you want to say taht you don't see your alerts, then the resolution thing needs to be adjust.
  4. What is not working?

  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

Step 7.

shy mountain
#

Go to the activity feed -> settings -> custom bot name -> set the custom bot name

crisp marten
#

Ahh. So after all the other steps, reset the name?

shy mountain
#

its reset via the command

#

you just need to set it up again via the login process for the custom name

crisp marten
#

Sorry re-set.

shy mountain
#

yes

crisp marten
#

Should work. Shall give a go.

I've been having Issues Connecting my Custom bot. It was fine until I changed my password for the bot account. I have since tried to log in through live multiple times but the bot wont connect. Am I missing a step?

steel bladeBOT
stuck mortar
#

Yes And the bot name does not show up after I log in

fathom cobalt
#

With ground control?

stuck mortar
#

No I am using OBS.Live

#

I can use my user name but not my custom bot account name

#

Those are the only options I get after I have logged into my bot account about 6 times. It is already a mod on my channel. and was working before I reset my password

potent prawn
#

It worked for me

It was working last week

#

Ive had it set up and working for about 6 months

@stuck mortar
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
stuck mortar
#

Ooo okay! i'll try that

potent prawn
#

I have 2 problems as well,
If I try alt tab onto my browser or something. OBS is always on top. Similarly my overlays won’t activate when I put them in obs

#

@odd kraken

#

Anything?

plain sonnet
#

file > always on top

for overlays, make sure the resolution in the browser source is correct (1920x1080)
and if you have the SE plugin turn off hardware accel in settings > advanced

potent prawn
#

Lemme try

#

Ah brilliant

#

Tysm

#

Also tadpole

#

Any way I can use media request without hearing it myself. So only my stream can.

plain sonnet
#

make a blank overlay in the SE editor, put the media request widget into the overlay only

add the overlay into obs, in the browser properties select "control audio via obs" option

go to edit > advanced audio
turn the monitoring for the overlay to "monitor off"

#

you can then control the audio via the mixer for the stream

potent prawn
#

But if I do that my stream can’t hear it right?

plain sonnet
#

if you select monitor off then it will go only to the output (stream), so you wont hear it

potent prawn
#

Ok tysm

stuck mortar

@odd kraken with step one I feel silly I cant get it to work. Does it go to the end of my launch or am I replacing it somewhere. LOL clearly my coffee hasnt kicked in lol

Okay I think I read the rules completely, sorry in advice if I mess this up. @_@;;

I have recently bought a stream package from VisualsByImpulse and I have done the 'one-click setup' for twitch. I have already included the url into OBS Streamelements but I think what I am confused about is how to include my full package. I have watched a few videos and read as much as I could before turning to discord for help. Cue my lack of reading comprehension it seems.

Do I have to add everything from the package into overlay editor?

wary dew
#

the one-click-setup for StreamElements adds everything to the overlay editor, or at least it should 😛

tough geyser
#

Maybe I'm missing something, one moment

wary dew
#

from there, you can copy widgets from one overlay to another to mix and match to your liking

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

@slender haven If your Mixer stream has "Low Latency" greyed out in the player while using OBS.Live, do the following:

  1. Stop your stream
  2. Go to your stream settings in OBS and return them to your previous settings, where your service is listed as "Mixer.com - FTL"
  3. In "live video settings" for OBS.Live on the left-hand side (in the chat window) change the setting on top of the window to "Go Live with Mixer Broadcast Dashboard settings" and press "Go Live!" from there

now my game doesnt show up

How do I connect what’s happening on my Xbox to obs with overlays

@slender haven im not an xbox streamer, but probably you will need a capture card

hi! Is there somebody that can help me on obs?

I am struggling with obs! I cannot hear my game audio when im using my headphones can anybody help me with that? thanks

#

Hey so I'm creating an overlay and previewing it from obs live as I go of course. The scrolling text is not working though. Any reason why?

honest echo
#

@rotund swift You hear your game when your obs is close?

steel bladeBOT
#

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

Sweet. Will do.

rotund swift

yah i can hear my game its dota2 and i setup the audio for dota 2 as headphones

sick hedge

Woah wtf that was a bot?

😂

#

GG

rotund swift
#

but theres no audio coming out in the obs @honest echo

honest echo
#

@rotund swift Check your audio devices on Settings > Audio

#

@sick hedge You're welcome 🙂

sick hedge
#

Might have to change his game audio to Monitor & Output

rotund swift
#

ill give a screenshot here

#

so thats my settings i dont know if I messed up on the computers sound settings just tell me if you need more sources

honest echo
#

check the dropdown list and check if you see the same name that you see on dota

rotund swift
#

what do you mean by dropdown list?

#

which dropdown list?

honest echo
rotund swift
#

yah i can see the same name

#

but it wont give sounds

#

in dota 2 if im using the main speakers that i have wc is the focusrite I can hear audio

#

but what I wanted is to listen the audio of my game in headphones. but when going live theres no audio coming out 😦

honest echo
#

That's weird, so when OBS is close you can hear the game as soon as you open OBS you can't, right?

rotund swift
#

i can still here the game on my headset when obs is open. but the problem is when going live there is no audio coming out from twitch or fb

#

thats my sound settings

#

if that could hlep

#

help*

honest echo
#

@rotund swift if you can see it select it and you will see another bar on your audio mixer on obs

rotund swift
#

see it where again?

honest echo
#

on the screenshot that i made

rotund swift
#

maybe I cant really use my headphones when streaming. It wont work. maybe i'll use my speakers instead for audio

#

thanks for helping though @honest echo Appreciate it

plain mason
#

@rotund swift did you see Settings > Audio on the OBS to check if your sound card is right?

rotund swift
#

@plain mason how do I check on that?

#

as you can see when im using the focusrite on my game as audio source it will also have sounds on obs. but I wish i could have use my headphones instead for listening the game

@rotund swift see your DM

why dont my overlays and alert show

upper glacier
#

is custom bot name support included in OBS.live or do you still need to be running Ground Control for that?

#

Whoops. looks like this wasn't discussed too long ago. Sorry. Still needs Ground Control, I guess.

slender haven
#

So I was able to get the picture from my Xbox to show on the source but once I tried to get my overlays going it went to a black screen and I have not been able to get the picture back, anyone have ideas

#

I can see that the audio mixer is picking up my game audio but there’s not picture

steel bladeBOT
#

@zenith ferry 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

shy mountain
#

@upper glacier you can have GC or OBS.Live - up to you honestly

steel bladeBOT
#

@silver tundra A crash log is required to investigate the cause of your issue. Please upload the last crash log.

  1. In OBS, click the Help menu
  2. Select Crash Reports, and then Upload Last Crash Report
  3. Copy the URL, and paste it to the chat here.
    --
    If you are not able to follow the above steps, open your file explorer and go here: %appdata%\obs-studio\crashes and provide the last listed file.
shy mountain
#

@slender haven Can you elaborate a bit more? Are you using OBS?

slender haven
#

Yes

steel bladeBOT
slender haven
#

I had the video showing for awhile in the program box but not the preview box then when I went to put overlays in the overlays showed up in program but no picture from Xbox, I have since removed everything and tried adding it back but now all I get is audio without picture

shy mountain
#

If the capture source is showing just a black screen

#

I would strongly suggest to ask the OBS guys

#

OBS.Live is a plugin for OBS Studio and does not touch the capture sources in any way

slender haven
#

Oh the button I clicked for the overlays was the transition while in studio mode and when I clicked that is when everything turned black except overlays were still showing

shy mountain
#

If you are still seeing a black screen coming from the capture card software, but ONLY in OBS, then ask in the obs discord

#

This issue is not related to OBS.Live

slender haven
#

Is there a link?

#

I get the same problem when I open obs.live

steel bladeBOT
upper glacier
#

@shy mountain if I want to use a custom bot name, though? Can I do that only running OBS.live? I've only found that option in Ground Control.

shy mountain
#

Check pinned message here @upper glacier

#

there is a video specifically for the rename option in OBS.Live

upper glacier
#

Ahhh. Thanks! Should have looked at the pins. Sorry.

@midnight folio Check settings -> advanced -> network if you've set your self to IPv6

#

if yes, change it

midnight folio

I dont see anything under that category that even mentions !Pv6

steel bladeBOT
midnight folio
#

IPv6 issue fixed, now can anyone walk me through getting audio and video into my overlays

#

Ive asked on the OBS discord and gotten no respose

shy mountain
#

can you elaborate?

midnight folio
#

In the overlays there are sections for viewers to be able to see me. I launched a test stream and my web cam is not filling in those boxes with video on any of the overlays

shy mountain
#

So your webcam video doesn't fit the webcam border from the overlay?

#

right click the video source -> properties - adjust the video settings to w/e aspect ratio the overlay border fits

midnight folio
#

Its not showing up on the overlay screens at all

#

Ill take a screen shot and post so you can see what i mean

box on the bottom left should have my web cam footage in it and its not showing up

shy mountain
#

Well did you add the webcam as a video source to obs?

midnight folio
#

yes

shy mountain
#

do you have another scene with the webcam added?

midnight folio
#

I have a video capture set up but if i try to individually add one for the overlays its doesnt show anything

shy mountain
#

Do you have the webcam added as a new video source in another scene?

midnight folio
#

How do i add it in another scene? I can add a second video capture if thats what you mean

#

Im in the chit chat voice channel if it would be easier to discuss this rather than try to type it all out

midnight folio
#

Ill get this all figured out another time. for now i have to get stuff done here before my stream so ill just run this one without overlays and get everything set up for the next one

shy mountain
#

Sorry that I had to step away for a moment

#

Record a video with ShareX and paste it here

#

and show me what you are doing

#

Im not available for voice support

midnight folio
#

ShareX? I have no idea what that is lol

shy mountain
#

records screenshots, on sreen video

#

and so on

#

or record with OBS what you are doing

midnight folio
#

Ill get that downloaded and reach out again when i can. for now though i have to go. didnt think it was going to be this difficult to get things set up so its taking more time than i currently have available

hollow lion
#

Could someone tell me how I can make the text always fit within the box so there's no cutting off if the name is too long? Dynamic font size seems to cut off

torpid abyss
#

so I have two streamlabs and one of them is linked to my facebook while the other my twitch and you tube is ti possible to merge the two?

shy mountain
#

I can link the accounts for you, but I will need the JWT token from both accounts.

#

Do note:

#
  • Merging accounts only allows faster ways to switch between them
#
  • Merging accounts does not allow data sharing between accounts - different streaming platforms, different type of events
#
  • Merging accounts allows duplicating overlays between the accounts
#

@hollow lion Don't use the dynamic font option

#

as that is looking only for the length of the widget and not its height

torpid abyss
#

you know how on the preset overlays it says twitch, facebook, youtube ect how do you link your handles to that?

shy mountain
#

@fervent crag Lower your output quality in the settings -> video

#

@torpid abyss You go into the overlay editor -> click on the text widget -> settings on the left -> edit the text.

fervent crag
#

I still want the option for higher quality tho

shy mountain
#

You need to be an affiliate and hope that the encoder servers have slots to enable quality options for your stream

#

Thats not up to us or you

hi im trying to use scene transitions when i move from one scene to another it shows my scene underneath before the transition hits

wary dew

adjust the switching point

rose quiver
#

im getting like 10-20 second delays but is says on obs live that im onlt getting 1s delay????

rugged quail
#

you mean transition point? @wary dew higher or lower?

#

i have it on lowest 0ms

wary dew
#

yes, 0 means it will change right at the start

#

so that's why it shows before it launches 😉

swift scaffold
#

@rose quiver what platform do you stream on?

rose quiver
#

mixer

steel bladeBOT
#

@rose quiver If your Mixer stream has "Low Latency" greyed out in the player while using OBS.Live, do the following:

  1. Stop your stream
  2. Go to your stream settings in OBS and return them to your previous settings, where your service is listed as "Mixer.com - FTL"
  3. In "live video settings" for OBS.Live on the left-hand side (in the chat window) change the setting on top of the window to "Go Live with Mixer Broadcast Dashboard settings" and press "Go Live!" from there
rugged quail
#

so put it higher you say ? @wary dew

wary dew
#

yes

rugged quail
#

when i press the transition it shows the scene for like half a second then launches the stinger then shows the scene

#

hope that makes sense

wary dew
#

yes it does, the moment of the switch should be invisible

#

so you need to play with the timing

rugged quail
#

does this have something to do with scenes loading when not on?

wary dew
#

yes

rugged quail
#

should i have scenes to turn off when not being used?

wary dew
#

most people do, since it uses less CPU

rugged quail
#

also camera ?

wary dew
#

you only have one cam right?

rugged quail
#

i have a camera on just chatting screen and on game scne

#

scene

wary dew
#

should be fine

rugged quail
#

how do i turn scene off when not being used once its set up please

#

i cant find the option

wary dew
#

browser source properties

#

(right click)

rugged quail
#

yes thats when you load a new scene in what about when its all set up

#

already

#

how do i get to that screen?

wary dew
#

you can't disable complete scenes

#

only sources afaik

#

or use the eye icon

rugged quail
#

ok ill have a play thankyou

#

should i refresh browqser when scen comes active

silver tundra
