Thank you

silver tundra
#

Still would like a response to my crashing issue. Do I need to send the crash reports again?

steel bladeBOT
#

@silver tundra 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+)

lilac ocean
#

can you get me one of those cleanlogs

#

or does it keep crashing?

silver tundra
#

Yeah

#

Gimme a sec I'll repost them

lilac ocean
#

if it keeps crashing, reinstall obs and obs.live, if you haven't tried already

#

Hi there

#

I dont know who was helping me before to detect why I am getting dropped frames

#

I have now got the log file ready with the dropped frames

silver tundra
#

@lilac ocean anything?

wintry kiln
lilac ocean

Did you reinstall already? @silver tundra

hi there im trying to make the switch to se but obs is causing me a bunch of trouble do i just ask away here?

autumn delta
#

on obslive can i see the number of viewers

#

?

silver tundra
#

So wait, where do I go to uninstall OBS? and Also @lilac ocean will I get to keep my scenes?

plain mason
#

on obslive can i see the number of viewers
@autumn delta what is your platform?

autumn delta
#

@plain mason mean windows 10? Twitch? or obs studio?

wintry kiln
#

So my issue is I'm always getting dropped frames and was told to send the log file when I start to get them again. So here it is as I am very confused with why I'm getting them as I have a good upload speed and a good PC : https://obsproject.com/logs/wl4LSNoJB8t6SO8x

plain mason
#

@plain mason mean windows 10? Twitch? or obs studio?
@autumn delta live stream platform 😛

@silver tundra Your x264 encoder is crashing. And I see you're using an AMD Ryzen CPU. There are two main reasons why OBS would crash:
Outdated BIOS (very common)
Faulty RAM

So try to update your BIOS or of this won't work, try with different RAM or switch between the ones you have (given that you have more than one stick)

broken adder
#

Is anyone here able to help me with Media Request in StreamElements OBS? I had it working a few months ago, but now the Youtube player isn't showing up in OBS and attempting to open the browser source gives me an "Invalid Token" message.

autumn delta
#

@plain mason ah ok thanks

wintry kiln
#

@steel mural I believe it was you i was talking to before ?

#

I have attached the latest 🙂

steel mural
#

@wintry kiln
I wasn't active in support today so it's unlikely that we talked to each other. Also it's pretty late where I live so won't be around for long.

Dropped frames: Network problem between you and the server you're streaming to so check your network or ask your ISP

Rendering lag: GPU overload. Start OBS as admin and limit your FPS to something that won't push your GPU over 90%+. Ideally, just enable Vsync in your games video settings.

silver tundra
#

@steel mural I actually RECENTLY updated my BIOS so that couldnt be it

#

And as for RAM, do I just need to get more?

#

Like I run 16 GB now, should I get 32?

steel mural
#

No. When you know for a fact that your BIOS is up to date, try different RAM. I didn't say to get more

silver tundra
#

So my RAM sticks could just be faulty?

steel mural
#

yes

silver tundra
#

Is there a way to check if they are?

steel mural
#

There's a software called "Memtest86" but I can't help you with that

silver tundra
#

Because that would mean I'd need to drop another 150 on RAM

#

And also, why did you namedrop my CPU? Is there a problem with that particular CPU?

steel mural
#

There's a known issue with Ryzen CPUs and the x264 encoder.

silver tundra
#

So my CPU could be the issue too?

#

Because if my CPU is the issue, I'd need a whole new motherboard too

steel mural
#

Unlikely. BIOS and RAM are more known for having issues when using a Ryzen CPU

silver tundra
#

Someone told me to try uninstalling OBS, is that something that would help?

steel mural
#

Not really. I know that you were asked to do so but this won't fix it. ^^

silver tundra
#

So chances are OBS would crash again if I tried to do a long stream?

steel mural
#

yup

#

Welcome to the world of Ryzen.

silver tundra
#

What would be the best fix then? Just getting some different RAM?

steel mural
#

Check for a BIOS update again, switch RAM slots, try only a single RAM stick at the time, run Memtest86, test different RAM by asking someone you know if they can borrow you RAM before buying new one and ultimately, buy new RAM

silver tundra
#

I updated my BIOS like 2 weeks ago, so its unlikely that there's an updated BIOS

#

hello guys

#

i just made myself an overlay

#

but when i added the overlay in my obs it didnt work well

#

i was hearing the sound but the image didnt appear

#

how can i fix this

honest echo
#

@median arrow Check the dimensions (by default 1920x1080

median arrow
#

yeah its the same

sleek hawk
#

Ok, I've tried to figure this out for at least an hour. I am now desperate enough to ask for help. How do I add overlays to my stream after I've added them to the dashboard?

#

I can't find "add overlay" near the scene options :l

steel bladeBOT
#

@sleek hawk 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

median arrow
#

copy the link

sleek hawk
#

Ohh BROWSER

median arrow
#

and add browser paste the link

odd kraken
#

There is a plus in the lower left of the scenes section in OBS.

sleek hawk
#

Thank you!

median arrow
#

it migth not appear the image 😄 but you might hear the sound

#

can some body help me

#

i just made myself an overlay
but when i added the overlay in my obs it didnt work well
i was hearing the sound but the image didnt appear
how can i fix this

steel bladeBOT
median arrow
#

oh thanx 😄

broken adder
#

Is there any option for a "Performance Mode" in OBS other than disabling preview?

steel bladeBOT
#

@broken adder 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.

broken adder
sleek hawk
#

Is there a way to pre-load overlays so OBS doesn't have to fetch them every time I switch?

wary dew
#

you can do that in studio mode

odd kraken
#

Disable the shutdown when not visible option, but this might cause audio issues and needs changing of the overlay setup to solve these.

sleek hawk
#

Hmm. I don't think my overlay makes any noise? Why would that cause audio issues?

odd kraken
#

If you use an alertbox in every overlay, which is active then, it can cause issues.

#

Also note, that loaded overlays in the background requires higher load.

sleek hawk
#

So you'd suggest just accepting it instead? It only really looks weird when my cam is already on the scene and then the rest loads in two seconds afterwards lol

broken adder
#

@sleek hawk You could set it as a transition over 2 seconds, so it'll load them up and then the scene will change

steel bladeBOT
sleek hawk

I'll check out that video, thanks. Things are getting confusing in the program hampscMonkas

Hi guys. So I have done a couple of streams now with SE fully setup, however none of my tips are showing up in my revenue history which means some of my on screen graphics aren't working. I have received email confirmation from Paypal that they are being processed. Any thoughts?

wary dew
#

If a viewer tipped through PayPal but no information appears in your StreamElements account, this generally means PayPal has held the tip for verification. Until PayPal clears the tip and sends back a confirmation to your StreamElements account, no information will appear there and no alert will play, as that confirmation is the only way for us to be aware of a successful transaction. If you believe there may be an issue with the transaction, you'll need to contact PayPal support as StreamElements is only a passthrough service and never actually gets involved with the transaction or touches the money.

paper island
#

Its a brand new Paypal account and they are holding payments at first so that makes sense!

lavish ermine
#

Hey there! When I redeem an item from my Stream Store, it only plays the audio but it doesn't the show gif. I've added the "store redemptions" widget to my overlay and it's been saved. I'm not sure why it's not working properly.

wary dew
#

does it show in the overlay editor if you test it?

lavish ermine
#

It does, but it's gray for some reason.

rugged quail
#

Hi, for some reason I can not see the stream elements panel and it's just OBS studio

#

ANy way to open up stream element panels again

lavish ermine
#

@rugged quail I could be wrong, but try clicking "StreamElements" on the above toolbar. In the dropdown you should see options such as Activity Feed, Chat, Media Request. Clicking those should add them back into your OBS.

rugged quail
#

Sadly I don't see those anymore, It just says active overlays and takes me to the themes gallery :/

#

Oh just needed to update tipping and it came back lol weird thanks

lavish ermine
#

Nice! Glad it worked out. Happy streaming 🙂

rugged quail
#

how do i delete an old subscriber alert so i can put a new one its playing all the old ones

rugged quail
#

i have my alerts set up but can only hear sound not image can somebody help please

plain sonnet
#

rugged quail
#

#

#

plain sonnet
#

there is no message to hook up the streamlabs bot when using obs/SE

leaden fog

Guys, i need some help. I have streamelements for all my overlays and alerts, however today i had some viewers complaining that they made donations, and it did not give an alert, i donated to myself and it still did not give an alert, does not show in my revenue history, but does show under "latest tipper". I have checked and tipping moderation is switched off.

silver tundra
#

@steel mural if you’re here, I have the memtest results

honest echo
#

@silver tundra probably he is sleep right now but he will be around in a couple of hours 😉

#

is there anything that you were talking with him, maybe i could help 🙂

silver tundra
#

Yes

rugged quail
#

any idea how i can get my alerts to show in another scene they all work in my game scene but not my intermission scene i can only hear sound

silver tundra
#

My OBS has been crashing multiple times recently after switching to it. After sending him the crash reports he said my x264 encoder is crashing and it may be a result of the RAM I’m using, so he told me to perform a memtest on the RAM

honest echo
#

@cursive valley Did you test it over Paypal?

cursive valley
#

yes, tipped myself from another paypal account i had

#

it does not show up in my actual paypal account either

honest echo
#
If a viewer tipped through PayPal but no information appears in your StreamElements account, this generally means PayPal has held the tip for verification. Until PayPal clears the tip and sends back a confirmation to your StreamElements account, no information will appear there and no alert will play, as that confirmation is the only way for us to be aware of a successful transaction. If you believe there may be an issue with the transaction, you'll need to contact PayPal support as StreamElements is only a passthrough service and never actually gets involved with the transaction or touches the money.
cursive valley
#

ok. so how can they tip without having to go through that process?

honest echo
#

@rugged quail check the dimension

#

by default 1920x1080

rugged quail
#

yes both scenes are 1920x10800

#

1080

#

i just want to duplicate the alerts from my game scene to my intermission scene

honest echo
#

@rugged quail you can duplicate the alertboxwidget to any other overlay

rugged quail
#

how do you do this

#

please

honest echo
#

click on the alertbox widget and then press the duplicate button

rugged quail
#

i go to alerts layer

honest echo
silver tundra
#

Sorry to barge in, I'll wait my turn

cursive valley
#

lol, just 3 support requests at once

honest echo
#

@cursive valley since we are only a passthrough service best to talk with paypal support

#

could you try to open your obs again please @silver tundra

#

and if it crashed upload the new crashlog here

silver tundra
#

I havent tried using OBS since the two crashes last night

#

You mean the crashlogs from then?

honest echo
#

no i mean try open obs again

silver tundra
#

Ok I just did

honest echo
#

crashed again?

silver tundra
#

It doesnt crash instantly.

#

It took a few hours for it to crash before

honest echo
#

maybe try to replicate the same situation

autumn fern
#

@silver tundra I run mine in administrator mode

silver tundra
#

In that case I'd have to stream and it would have to run for 3-4 hours

honest echo
#

@silver tundra i hear some other reports from users with crashes with AMD Ryzen CPUs probably due to the x264 encoder crashes, you could try to reach obs help support over their discord if they have any insights about this

steel bladeBOT
silver tundra
#

Is it my CPU then thats the issue?

autumn fern
#

HELP PLEASE:::: Before I wiped my PC everything was working fine. I made another twitch account for a StreamElements bot. After the PC wipe my bot will not stay in my chat list. I have gone thru the steps of leaving the channel and joining several times to try and reconnect it to my main account I like I originally did the first time I set it up. But it keeps leaving. The only bot that starts now is the original StreamElements bot. Which before did not show after the name change. So I'm stumped what would cause this. What must I do on my end to fix this?

honest echo
#

@silver tundra i can't say that for sure, but i hear some others users with troubles with ryzen cpu .. as well as some other users with problems on MACs

#

@autumn fern ok... i will try to read again

#

So StreamElement is in your twicth channel
The custom bot name isn't working

autumn fern
#

Yes

honest echo
#

Do you have obs.live?

autumn fern
#

Yes

honest echo
#

@autumn fern no need for that comment 😉
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
autumn fern
#

Am I removing the original target and putting only what you typed in #1?

#

@honest echo When I add the "--remote-debugging-port=40404" to the end , Windows says its invalid and won't let me add it. So I am confused as to how or where I am adding it to this ->> C:\Program Files\obs-studio\bin\64bit\obs64.exe

looking for some help finding a good " loadout" command for streamlabs obs 😩

#

@fleet talon We're not able to troubleshoot issues with using our overlays in StreamLabs OBS (SLOBS) as we don't have the tools to support their software. We recommend using OBS Studio or OBS Studio with our plugin OBS.Live.

Not sure if its jsut my internet on weekends or not. My stream seems to be buffering alot today and never has before

rugged quail
#

hey so quick question but how do i get my alert box setup on 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

@honest echo Appreciate the help. Finally figured it out.

rugged quail
#

I was streaming and like an hour into the stream, stream chat stopped loading when I got to type into the box it was just loading its very frustrating when you have a lot of viewers and you have to log out is there a way to resolve this please it's happening quite often now

#

I've read something about hardware acceleration in some forums regarding this matter

honest echo

@lament frigate Hey did you add some other sources? maybe try on delete everysource and add it one by one until so see that increase on the cpu usage again

lament frigate

i have only one source which is game capture and no stinger transitions

#

no other scenes?

no overlays?

@regal saffron 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 there, I just posted in the twitch support channel, but its probably more relevant here. I've noticed in a stream I mod for that the custom bot name in OBS.live seems to be logged out after 4 hours of streaming. Is there a way of making it persist longer? A workaround my streamer has been using is to open GroundControl to re-enable the bot name, but it happens every stream.

#

I am actually also a developer with experience in authenticating against the Twitch api if I could be of assistance to your devs

regal saffron
#

i've done that however it is not working...

shy mountain
#

Can you provide a bit more info maybe?

#

@spark verge tell them to try this:

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```
spark verge
#

OK then. He's streaming right now, so I won't interrupt it, but I will pass it on, thanks

gaunt bronze
#

is 13 upload not enough to stream?

steel bladeBOT
#

@gaunt bronze There are no "best settings".
Please understand that every setup will be very different.

Any guides or videos that claim otherwise are misinforming. Your best option is to start with a base and adjust as necessary.

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

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

Thank you SEheart

gaunt bronze
#

Just strange that my stream today is buffering but has never done this before

steel bladeBOT
#

@gaunt bronze 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.

gaunt bronze
steel bladeBOT
#

@gaunt bronze 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+)

gaunt bronze
#

anything?

steel bladeBOT
#

@gaunt bronze 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

gaunt bronze
#

Dropped frames same as buffering?

shy mountain
#

yes

#

buffering means non-stable connection

#

meaning dropped frames, meaning internet issue

Hey guys, I tried getting an answer from the OBS discord but no success... Wondering if you guys know why I cant hear my Alert audio on OBS individually when I have monitoring off. ( I checked the box that says Control Audio via OBS, when adding the browser source to separate audio)
So, when I have monitoring off in the advanced settings no audio is going to my headset BUT OBS and stream can hear it. Turning Monitoring on to ether setting gives me audio but also plays the audio on another audio source (causing two inputs)

#

This is the box im talking about. I've had it disabled for ages now and didn't mind, but I kinda want the Alert audio separate now. Only issue is that when I enable it, I cant hear my alerts & stream can.

steel bladeBOT
blissful glen
#

Mmm, back to my message, I was probably unclear: When I enable the monitoring option is plays the audio on my Desktop input as well. Is that intended? (audio is lower there but still being picked up and played)

shy mountain
#

I don't believe so

blissful glen
#

missgHMM Hmm. Might just disable the control audio via OBS setting then. pretty annoying that I cant figure this out :\

#

--- If anyone stumbles upon this and has a solution feel free to @ me/DM me :)

shy mountain
#

I actually want to troubleshoot this together, but i'm doing so many things at the same time NotLikeThis

#

Can you show me your audio settings? @blissful glen

blissful glen
#

Sure, one sec. And no rush on this, truly. I kinda just want to get to the bottom of it, but again dont mind reverting.

livid otter
#

I cant get my host alerts to show up

steel bladeBOT
#

@livid otter Due to changes to Twitch API, we have filtered out hosts and will only show these ones on your activity feed:

  • All hosts coming from an online channel with at least 1+ viewer
  • Auto host events with at least 1 viewer - only from a channel that just went offline
    Note: If you see "X channel has hosted you" with no viewers on the back, that is considered an offline host or a host with 0 viewers, we do not show these.
    Note for Mixer streamers: The above 2 filters currently apply for Mixer and we are aware its actually not how Mixer hosts work. We do plan on changing it, but no ETA on when.
shy mountain
#

@blissful glen specifically from settings -> audio

blissful glen
#

Here you go, ignore the two Voice inputs, it shouldn't interfere with the alert stuff since that's specific to voice monitoring.

shy mountain
#

astro mixamp PepeS

blissful glen
#

Hahaaaaa. Bit of a headache I know

shy mountain
#

that is where you lost me PepeSus

blissful glen
#

Yeah, no worries. I'll probably troubleshoot tomorrow, as its getting late. If I find a solution I'll let you guys know incase someone encounters the same issue.

shy mountain
#

I suspect you getting a feedback via the desktop audio is because of the mixer interface. Its picking up the audio from monitoring and rerouting it back to your headphones causing a double monitoring issue

#

hence why you hear it again

blissful glen
#

Ah, I see. Going to test a different output device and see if that does it.

#

vREEE didn't work. Tried using speakers & separate mic as output + input, same thing.

shy mountain
#

what if you remove the 2nd desktop audio? Thonk

blissful glen
#

Tried that. Nothing. Even tried resetting all my audio settings as if It were a fresh start.

--- Okay, found somewhat of a solution... In Settings > Audio > Advanced, changing the monitoring device to another output will 1. let me hear audio, and 2. NOT duplicate it on OBS. only downside to this is that It's not in my headset/whatever my default device would be on OBS :\

#

Alright, gonna call it there. Thanks for the help anyway, really appreciate it. Goodnight!

shy mountain
#

default device would be the one that is set in the windows audio settings usually

gaunt bronze
#

no more buffering it seems but pretty pixalted for viewers?

so weird

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

Make sure you don’t have a browser open with the editor open, and make sure all your overlay sources are set to shutdown when inactive

Would anyone be able to provide information on how to remove the NDI plugin from OBS Studio Live? I did the normal Uninstall and now when I boot OBS it tells me NDI plugin not found. So i went into the OBS program file and removed anything NDI and now I get ndiplugin.liberror.message.win error code. I'm at a loss on what to do next unfortunately.

#

A reinstall didn't fix the problem 😦

#

Ok never mind.. I fully uninstalled everything OBS and a reinstall seemed to fix my problem.

you said you set you stream key, i said DO NOT use it

i saw that and connected without key

same issue

steel bladeBOT
#

@split rivet 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+)

plain sonnet
#

do that and post the log

Question! Im having an issue where for some reason, when I speak into my microphone, the audio is also playing through my Desktop Audio and am getting a rediculous echo.

warm loom
#

Hi, how do i setup alerts on obslive 🙂

plain sonnet
#

@split rivet so with this log you made a recording, which doesnt help if the issue is with streaming.

so, my next question is do you use the SE bot renaming or media request control features in obs?

hasty junco
#

Alright. So I found out that it is being caused by RTX Voice. When it is off, there is no echo. I turn it on and OBS is picking up the audio it is putting out as Desktop audio in addition to it being the sound for my microphone.

#

FFS. In my volume mixer. RTX voice is not showing any audio output. But OBS is still sending my voice out as a Desktop Audio.

warm loom
split rivet
#

here is another log where i tried to start streaming. as for a SE bot. i believe i am using one. tbh, i dunno what an SE bot or media request control is..

plain sonnet
#

settings > audio

make sure the devices are set correctly

if the devices are set to "default"
make sure the correct device are set in the windows control panel

if you set them per device,
make sure the devices are connected and turned on
@hasty junco

restart obs when the settings are made and test again

warm loom
#

This alert creator is so confusing to use..

hasty junco
#

@plain sonnet I have my desktop audio set correctly, along with my mic set correctly. You can see that the system audio and OBS audio are reacting the same way when I speak into the microphone, but RTX Voice is not. I also have my inputs and outputs set correctly on RTX voice. When I turn off RTX voice, this goes away completely.

#

This has to be coming from the interaction between the two programs.

might want to up that bitrate to 4000-5000

gilded lion

I upped it and no luck.

@gilded lion 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.

that's the result from the log

#

always run OBS in admin mode, that will help windows allocate more resources to it so it can run smoother

check the green link in the log for tips on the dropped frames issues

Awesome! Thank you!

and it also says you are streaming in 2560x1440

not in the 1280x720 you posted earlier

so you might want to change that to begin with 😉

Hey, how do I add overlays?

steel bladeBOT

@clear folio To add your overlays to OBS, add a new browser source in your scene. Paste your overlay URL in the browser source properties, set the dimensions to 1920x1080 (unless you changed them on the website), and ☑ “Shutdown source when not visible” https://youtu.be/KDvLynUqXI4

#

@shut patio 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

Hi! My host alert doesn’t show when someone from mobile is hosting me. Is that a real thing? Or is something glitched? Thanks!

steel bladeBOT

@lament crag Due to changes to Twitch API, we have filtered out hosts and will only show these ones on your activity feed:

  • All hosts coming from an online channel with at least 1+ viewer
  • Auto host events with at least 1 viewer - only from a channel that just went offline
    Note: If you see "X channel has hosted you" with no viewers on the back, that is considered an offline host or a host with 0 viewers, we do not show these.
    Note for Mixer streamers: The above 2 filters currently apply for Mixer and we are aware its actually not how Mixer hosts work. We do plan on changing it, but no ETA on when.

grizzled marsh
#

Do the hosts meet those criteria?

rugged quail
#

So are the changes in Twitch API the reason why they aren't showing on the overlay, with my Alert Box?

Also, I had another question - is there a way to get Twitch's chat that has the goals at the top, for instance the monthly subs and cheers and stuff? I thought I saw it at one point in OBS Live but don't remember, and can't seem to figure out how to enable it, maybe I'm missing something, or misremembering.

grizzled marsh
#

Yeah, if the hosts aren't from an online channel with 1+ or the auto host event with 1+ viewer, it won't be shown. Twitch API things.

#

For the leaderboards you're talking about, those are in your Twitch creator dashboard settings.

Am i in the right place for my question or go to obs help discord?

@topaz drift they'll definitely know there, but yes, I think you can connect two capture cards to the stream pc and switch between them within/or in separate scenes just fine

topaz drift
#

Well i have two pcs but im trying to use a nintendo ds and ps4 at the same time

undone musk
#

so long as you're streaming from one of the pc, and you have a capture card to each of the consoles, yeah, should be fine, just need to make sure you have both capture cards as separate sources

topaz drift
#

Yea, Im trying to figure that out. But i know certain elgatos i dont think can be used together because of the driver

maybe i should find an elgato server?

@vagrant yacht 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

☑️ “Shutdown source when not visible” fixed it, thanks

Anyone know how to get the window to change your title and game?

steel bladeBOT
#

@sage minnow If you are not seeing the OBS Twitch integrations and have OBS.Live installed, please follow these steps:

  1. Make sure you are on the latest and greatest version of OBS.Live
  2. exit OBS (make sure OBS is not running)
  3. delete %appdata%\obs-studio\plugin_config\obs-browser\obs_profile_cookies
  4. start OBS.Live
  5. Settings -> Stream -> disconnect -> connect

I'm trying to troubleshoot an issue, I'm currently on the default release path and was going to try both the beta and the stable release versions to see if the problem is still there or not, but whenever I switch paths it says there's no update. Is this a bug too or are all 3 paths currently on the same version?

How do I activate the media request option?

honest echo
#

@hushed whale Do you stream on twitch?

hushed whale
#

not on youtube

honest echo
#

Media request is not available for YouTube.

hushed whale
#

ah just on twitch?
so I'm going to start stremeing with twitch even if there are no viewers thx

shadow maple
#

hey, had a quick, maybe stupid issue, but whats shown in my overlay is not the same as i get on my stream. For example, if i put my stream chat like this:

#

which means it somehow scaled wrong?

honest echo
#

@shadow maple maybe your base canvas on your OBS is bigger than 1080p

shadow maple
#

might be, how do i change it?

honest echo
hushed whale
#

I have one more question for what it is useful to import streamlabs and how does the alertbox work?

honest echo
#

afeter you change it, edit the overlay again in order to make sure that every widget is on the right place

#

@hushed whale better ask depending on the platform (youtube, twitch, mixer)

hushed whale
#

Can you tell me from YouTube?

shadow maple
#

Ah alrighty, ill try it out, thanks, big man

honest echo
#

@hushed whale ⤴️

I already asked there

@hushed whale great!

yeah, it didnt seem to do it @honest echo sadspin

#

hey, ive been using OBS to stream on twitch for a little while now, but i recently deleted all audio devices and scenes. I heard theres a right and wrong way to re-add them, anyone know how to do that?

honest echo
#

To add your audio devices you add them on Settings > Audio > Devices

#

You could add as much scenes as you need

#

if you are asking about the overlays

steel bladeBOT
#

@woeful spire To add your overlays to OBS, add a new browser source in your scene. Paste your overlay URL in the browser source properties, set the dimensions to 1920x1080 (unless you changed them on the website), and ☑ “Shutdown source when not visible” https://youtu.be/KDvLynUqXI4

shadow maple
#

@honest echo just wanted to say that it didnt work

woeful spire
#

to be honest im still fairly new to this so i might be dumb, but i meant like if i should use display and game capture for different things and how to properly add those

#

Im also kinda shocked cause i heard this was a really helpful server but i didnt realize how fast people were willing to help 🤣

shadow maple
#

yea alot of people on here.

wary dew
honest echo
#

@woeful spire you could add windows capture for each window, like your browser, or some games it will depend on what are you trying to stream 😉
and thank you both, we do what we can to make this server as helpful as possible, and all its because of this great community SEheart

shadow maple
#

do you happen to have anymore fixes on hand? @honest echo

honest echo
#

@shadow maple did you save the overlay after the change?
and re added it to you OBS?

shadow maple
#

yeah, im messing around with the properties of the browser now, might have set it to 1920 x 1080

woeful spire
#

@honest echo For some reason when i add a window capture it automatically captures discord and wont let me switch it even though i have chrome and a game both open

shadow maple
#

try going into properties and changing the captured window there

honest echo
#

@woeful spire Open OBS with admin rights

woeful spire
#

@shadow maple That doesnt seem to work, ill try opening it with admin

shadow maple
#

yea, would change that in properties, so that it launches with admin every time

woeful spire
#

@honest echo No, that didnt help, its not so much as it wont allow me to change it, but rather theres no options to change too. Would it be easier to just use a game capture scene for when im streaming games and then swap the scene to display capture if i wanted to stream lets say something on chrome

honest echo
#

@woeful spire yes, that really depends on your setup but its recommended not to have more that 1 capture source on the same scene

woeful spire
#

Alrighty, is game capture generally the best way to capture a game for a mid-to-high end pc, and same for display capture for chrome?

honest echo
#

@woeful spire some games won't be pick up with gamecapture and you will need a window capture

woeful spire
#

@honest echo hm, i currently have Overwatch open and when i select window capture it captures discord straight away with no other options, but now i can atleast change it with running as admin, theres just nothing to change it to

So yesterday when I went to stream I noticed Media Request no longer works from OBS.Live. Every song gives a "THIS VIDEO IS NOT AVAILABLE IN YOUR COUNTRY" error, but if i try and control media share from the browser it plays fine. I live in the US, and even my own personal youtube videos give this error. Its worked seamlessly for past month, but suddenly its not working, I tried restarting OBS, and PC, I tried re-logging into OBS, and tried re-loading the overlays too...not sure what else to try

honest echo
#

@molten mantle you could 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 StreamElements - Media request link
5) Point the (in browser) URL to https://youtube.com/
6) Use the OBS dock to search for a song and play it after ads
7) Restart OBS and preform media request via chat
8) Remove --remote-debugging-port=40404 from shortcut

@astral 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

@astral sedge you need to add the media request widget to your overlay in the overlay editor. When you are in the editor you can click the add widget icon and should be able to search for media request and it will guide you to add the widget

Hey guys, trying to perform a test stream with Twitch inspector.
I cant find my streamkey to enter the details as needed i.e (?bandwidthtest=true) adding to the end of it. Is there another way around it?

shy mountain
#

https://dashboard.twitch.tv/u/YOURUSERNAMEHERE/settings/channel

#

this is where your streamkey is located

#

@shy mountain thanks mate, all guides say I need to add whats in the brackets above within OBS inorder to do the test stream.

#

My question is where do I find it within OBS.Live so I can edit it?

#

(Sorry if I conveyed that badly)

shy mountain
magic girder
#

That does not appear on mine

#

Hang on, I'll het a grab of it

#

Hence my confusion, as thats where I went to look.

shy mountain
#

So:
A) Disconnect -> place streamkey with the band width test argument
B) Just click the bandwidth test mode

magic girder
#

So if I click that B option it will only be a bandwidth test?

shy mountain
#

i believe so

Ok, thanks. I'll give that a crack.

@blissful swift In order to import scenes/overlays from SLOBS, you need to have OBS.Live installed.
After you install OBS.Live, click on "Streamelements" on top, then on "Import from other services" and then click on "StreamLabs - Import Now"
Each scene from SLOBS will be imported as a stand alone Overlay here: https://streamelements.com/dashboard/overlays

@elfin wolf you can't - we don't have multi-streaming support

I don't understand what hte issue is here.

Either you install the extension

or you use OBS.Live

to import your SLOBS scenes as decribed above by the bot

I want to link Streamlabs OBS & OBS.Live

You cannot link SLOBS and OBS.Live

OBS.Live is a plugin for OBS Studio

@past elm Google Fonts
More than 900 google fonts are supported at this time. You can preview them here: https://fonts.google.com/

Custom Fonts

Steps:

  1. Install the font on the streaming PC or choose a pre-installed windows font.
  2. In the overlay widget settings, select Text Settings
  3. Enable Custom Font
  4. Type the name of the font as it appears in the windows font directory (This is usually C:\Windows\Fonts)

Note: After installing fonts, the browser and OBS must be restarted for the font to appear.

slim herald

Hello there. I'm having an issue with OBS.LIVE. I've done the best I can to separate music track (Media Request / !SR) from the game and all so I can also record and keep the music OUT of the video...

The problem I'm finding with that is that I have to keep the alerts in the same track. Sometimes I'm playing a competitive game or I just plainly don't want to hear the same music as chat, and so, I turn off the songs in my DAW software... and that also turns off the alerts.

I would ALSO like to keep the songs at a volume ceiling and for that I need a compressor filter on the track.... and guess what, it would also compress the sounds of the alerts. Admittedly, I do want to compress the sounds of the alerts but NOT at the same threshold as the music, especially because one will interfere with the other, and sometimes songs might be louder or quieter due to youtube not having normalization features on its player (OR the player being used by the Streamelements Media Request)

What I need:

A way to compress the songs through the Music Request track SEPARATELY from the ALERTS (the same audio device OBS uses) so I can keep the volume loud and the compressor turns the volume down during music that peaks the threshold.
SADLY, Ground Control Just doesn't want to start on my PC and I don't know why but I believe that would have been a way to do this... (Also an issue I'm having)

Is that ever going to be in OBS.live?

Edit: I used to have a solution in plain OBS that I could monitor the alertbox but it doesn't work in obs.live apparently. So yeah, I'm having a hard time dealing with this here.

@honest echo I've tried. Nothing works when I tried to revive it. Even asked a friend to send me their files and nothing works.

#

There's two processes, one using about 5-6mb of ram, 0% cpu. One using 25-26mb ram, 0%. Nothing happens.

#

No logs either

How can I clean my donation history? I've donated some testing donations and I cannot clean it on-screen.... i've donated 11€ then -11€ and it keeps on 0€... I've deleted all donations... and also banned the 'fake' user but still appearing on-screen... tx for the help

honest echo
#

@slim herald ok, close again ground control aopen command prompt as administrator and enter this del %homepath%\.se-gc\config.json

slim herald
#

@honest echo It opened now. Literally took me days trying to figure it out and a single line of command did it... hah

#

Thank you so much I'm going to save this line of command

#

in case it happens again

I see a stream chat on my main monitor and idk how to remove it

#

its at the top middle

#

does anyone know how to remove that chat?

#

My second monitor has the OBS live running and it shows this

grizzled marsh
#

@upper niche try this, click on view > docks and see if chat is checked there.

#

The rogue chat box looks like the default OBS chat dock and not the OBS.Live one to me.

Hey everyone!

1st, thank you Devs for creating all of this!

2nd, this can now let us stream to Facebook, Facebook Pages, Twitch and YouTube all at the same time right?

honest echo
civic copper
#

I'm just trying to figure out how to stream to all 3.

honest echo
#

@civic copper SE doesn't support multistream

civic copper
#

Really?

#

What is the purpose of connecting all of the accounts then>

#

I just connected YouTube and Facebook Page as soon as I installed the add-on.

duplicating overlays and managing your channels

civic copper
#

Is that not a feature to stream to both? Am I mistaken?

hasty river
plain sonnet
#

if you want multi streaming, use something like restream

civic copper
#

restream isn't free.

#

Looking for a free source.

plain sonnet
#

it is (platform dependant)

thick needle
#

if anyone can help im having trouble with obs picking up my mic, ive looked on multiple fixes and none work

civic copper
#

It's not free for Facebook Page, YouTube and Twitch all at the same time.

#

I've tried, trust me. Lol!

plain sonnet
#

facebook isnt, yt and twitch is

honest echo
#

@hasty river cause the log that you provide doesn't seems to contains recording or streaming session

#

Check the link that i sent

plain sonnet
#

but to put an end to this. obs and/or SE doesnt support multi streaming

civic copper
#

I am curious as to what I logged into my accounts for then to set it them all up?

plain sonnet
#

already answered above

@plain sonnet Missed this by accident.

@honest echo il try to record something, but i was thinking, is the problem maybe just obs as a whole, i read multiple monitors can mess up the hz on your 144hz monitor
