and it's s i m p l e
and its not an OBSlive question, but i'll bite
@muted cobalt
!command add !egg "You just egged ${touser}"
thank you sorry for posting it in here

None of my overlays are working. I dont know whats happened.
@dire hare OBS -> settings -> advanced -> scroll down -> enable/disable hardware accel.

I can't get my Timers to work and SE is modded in my chat
Yeah me too, Also i dont have that option in the settings
oh wait i do
ahhhhh it works
i disabled hardware acceleration
@errant trail timers are also chatline(s) / time based
so, depending on what you set, they might never fire
I know. I running a 1 line 1 minute interval as a test, and my test timer isn't running
no
or are you trying the offline rule?
you right, my knucklehead self was looking at live, instead of offline interval lol..kk GTG
HI @all, does anybody know how i stream with more than one window? I have to switch the windows perlmanetly and i will show only the activted window.
Where can I find current viewers in OBS Live?
For what platform? @simple raft
anyone knows why my activity feed is not updating? i got 3 follows and they dont seem to appear in the feed
im sorry to be repetitive, but i cant find options on OBS.Live to change the bot name
and im not using Ground control., so the video posted earlier does me no good
I tried streaming through OBS.Live yesterday and it said I was streaming but it never actually streamed. so I switched back to OBS and it streamed fine. Is there something I am missing?
@vague grove Do you have the streamelements option in the menu?
@narrow moss We don't track refollows.
@vague grove click streamelements > activity feed and then the 3 lines in the top left corner.
@narrow moss Streamelements on top of OBS -> Logout -> login
if they were 3 seperate follows, be sure to log out and back in
if that doesnt work you could always try to part and rejoin the bot and see if the new alerts come through
@rugged quail Streamelements on top of OBS -> Logout -> login
What do I check if OBS.Live says I'm streaming but it isn't actually streaming?
I'm also not able to report an issue. it says "There was a problem sending report. Try again?"
Edit: Thanks MrMurdok for the help, this is fixed!
I am having the same issue as @narrow moss. Also got 3 new followers last night during my stream but no alerts, and nothing is registering in the Activity Feed. Went to https://streamelements.com/dashboard and parted my channel, then reconnected. Also logged out of Stream Elements within OBS Live and logged back in. The followers appear in my Twitch Stream Manager window. Nothing seems to work. Can anyone help with this?
hey when putting an overlay into obs stream elements what size does said overlay have to be
@knotty geyser 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
ive tryed the 1920 x 1080 and its way to big
all god i got it thanks for hel
help ❤️
dunno if im doing something wrong but trying to make obs pick up my xbox companion app but once ive added it its just a black screen
is there a way to add your own sounds to the alert box
say when some one follows instead of playing that ping sound can i have my own one
@knotty geyser yes, you can upload custom sounds just like you can custom video/images

New to OBS? Here is a 4 step quickstart guide
https://obsproject.com/wiki/OBS-Studio-Quickstart
Want to learn even more? Here is an in-depth overview
https://obsproject.com/wiki/OBS-Studio-Overview
Does anyone know if I should keep using streamlabs obs or obs live
can use both but OBS.Live is preferred
is there an app of sorts for obs live
it's just a plugin for OBS Studio
the download on that page will get OBS Studio and Live
Hello, my Media Request overlay dissapeared from obs.live and I can't find a way to add it back
@mossy cloud the dock on OBS.live or your actual overlay?
just the overlay
So when I switch scenes sometimes it takes a few seconds for the game to appear. Is this normal or is there a way I can fix this?
this is what happens actually
@mossy cloud make sure your browser source that hosted it wasn't deleted, then check
https://streamelements.com/dashboard/overlays to make sure it's still active
@mossy cloud Please logout of StreamElements at https://streamelements.com/logout and then login again to your account (Twitch/Youtube/Facebook/Mixer)
Nothing showing up in My Overlays but the one that has my banner, camera and everything else
So your media request one was on a separate Overlay but isn't there now? 
It was automatically created when I first configured it, but somehow it deleted itself
and of course, stopped showing itself in OBS
Of course 
I closed the dock for it and i don't have it... what is the url for media request that works properly in the dock in obs.live?
after typing this... someone might have jsut asked that before me.
nevermind, there was different. yeah, i jsut want my media request dock back, lol
The dock is in the StreamElements tab at the top of OBS.live

the overlay stopped working, added over again, nothing helps, how to solve the problem?
can I ask one more question? I run into a lot of trouble when I try to change my backup playlist in media request. I get the error message "That doesn't look like a youtube playlist URL" - whats the proper way to enter it?
does OBS.live disable clip support?
I used to be able to turn on and off a replay buffer but that option is just gone.
@last flower
@dim spear you have to enter a YouTube playlist link. Basically, add all your backup music to a yt playlist then add that link
@sharp shell mine still has the buffer 
I add a playlist link, and it says it's not valid.
Hey wassup 
just a little question
when you activate the "Purchase alert" and someone bought an Item form the Loyalty Shop shouldnt there pop a notification on stream? or did i activate the wrong one :o
I did, no change. 😦
is it the url? i need to change in some way? here's the playlist.
I've gotta tap out on that one. I've never had it misbehave myself so I've got no clue 
help
Hello! How do you make your OBS good quality for live streaming?
@silk swallow For the best OBS support, please join their Official Discord @ discord.gg/obsproject
@silk swallow 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 
Was about to double down with that @wary dew you rogue

the overlay stopped working, added over again, nothing helps, how to solve the problem?
By the way @wary dew do you have any ideas for the lads above? Kinda hit my limit there
what exactly stopped working?
dont work
@dim spear you can't add complete playlists to the media request list
only individual songs
That's contrary to what I've done 
@quiet saffron OBS -> settings -> advanced -> scroll down -> enable/disable hardware accel.
https://i.imgur.com/ggMe9ZE.png
disable that
(taking this here from general) So the StreamElements hosted animated overlays of mine do not animate when imported as Browser in OBS macOS. Is that a StreamElements or OBS issue?
Maybe it is I who has the broken system 
@wary dew still not working
@queen kraken You want the redemption widget for the stream store alerts.
@quiet saffron Right click on the BrowserSource > Properties > Scroll down a bit > Refresh Cache of current page
@toxic fern where do i get it :o
too
Overlay editor and choose the widget.
screenshot obs please @quiet saffron
@rugged quail a bit of both. Mac OBS is janky and SE doesn't like to work well with it either
Thx
The Hardware acceleration option is something that's planned by OBS but it's a matter of getting bugs squashed to make it work.
@toxic fern that going for me or some1 else?
everything worked fine yesterday
you.
Expect the support in 1 day to 10 years 
you're killing me xD
But I'm not singing......

In my exp most open source do well on unix than windows xD Where did we go wrong with OBS!
Part of it is because the dev primarily does windows dev for it and others handle the other OSs.
ouch. explains a lot
Can't wait until we're all on Linux and it just supports everything
amen
know what.. dockerise the shit out of it as well and just provide a browser interface
@wary dew anything works, namely there is no overlay
So when I switch scenes sometimes it takes a few seconds for the game to appear. Is this normal or is there a way I can fix this?
Is this more of an OBS question?
Sounds like it @lilac parcel

kys
@last flower sorry for the delayed response, didn't get a notification.... Anyways I can't click the options for the replay buffer in the output section nor is there a button to start stop the buffer in the bottom right controls.
Interesting 
Honestly I have no clue why it isn't there for you when I have it or how to fix it, aside from a full re-install which I can't guarantee would fix it anyeat
@toxic fern not trying to bother you, but does this ring any familiar bells? 
I figured it out!
https://tenor.com/bh8df.gif oof on both our parts lol
@sharp shell please share though just in case it comes up again somewhere
Apparently at some point the replay buffer was just disabled in video settings
Re-enabling it fixed it all.
Aaaaahhhh. Since I never use it I didn't even know you COULD disable it 
Learning more things. I really should spend a few days tearing OBS and SE apart in full so these minor details don't trip me up
glad I could help? 
Oof
so okay
My Probelm : I click on "Emulate" and normally something should pop out
But now nothin :(

Hello, looking for a little assistance with a channel. I've set up the overlay and alerts (new follower and tips). Overlay is working great. Alerts are not working at all. Previewing the alerts works in the browser and OBS.live. Looking at the activity feed in OBS it isn't registering that I'm getting follows. To test I've connected my other account and I'm seeing activity in the activity feed...In the chatstats section (stats.streamelements.com) it is showing accurate information.
Any ideas of where I might start looking for the disconnect?
Does the custom bot name only work when running through OBS.Live? i'm testing my chat on twitch channel directly and i'm still getting "StreamElements" bot name
@vague grove that's also an issue I'm facing.
I need help trying to make tab a button i press and something comes on my screen but won't allow me

@rustic pawn Unfortunately I'm not aware of any simple hold methods that'll work for you.
Just toggles.

Hi @fiery axle, Please ask your question(s) or describe the problem you're looking to solve so staff or a support volunteer can assist you as soon as they are available.
i am looking for a pack of overlays and alerts
but
there isnn't anyone in spanish right?
I don't believe tab can be used in OBS as a standalone hotkey
there isnn't anyone in spanish right?
@fiery axle ?
That's something you'd have to ask OBS as that's not something we handle.
#🇪🇸︱español
@last flower will they make it a standalone in the feature ?
That's something to ask obs

@spare notch Streamelements on top of OBS -> Logout -> login
Been having horrible issues lately and was wondering if anyone qualified could assist me.
Essentially, my stream F’s randomly and I cannot pinpoint the issue. SE also says I have no subs?
Hi Evelyn i will take a look in your account, we can use #dreamteam 😉
Howdy all, trying to figure out how or why OBS studio would go from taking only 10-30% of my CPU resources to 60-100% stand alone. Only thing I changed in the last few days was installing some plugins for FX including the “motion” fx. And installed stream deck for the mobile app. Thoughts?

Hey I had asked this yesterday very politely, I understand things are busy. I want to ask again, how I can get my "Song Request" Panel back into my UI.
Chat seems to have fixed itself so that is no longer an issue
streamelements > media request
Not an option on my overlay. Does this need to be done through my Stream Elements dashboard?
log out then log back in
I've done that, now I don't have the option to impute my stream key nor do I have the option Streamelements>Media Request
you should be using your stream key anyway, but you cant input the key in the SE menu
thats under the settings menu
yes, thats under the settings menu, and you cant add your stream key because you have connect your account.
going back to the mr issue, please log out then back in on the se menu
guess no one wants to help me, none of my alerts are showing in obs but they are showing in the overlay editor and i have it configured right
Okay, so is my SE menu The Web browser dashboard for stream elements
Alright I see, so now I'm in the media request setting in stream elementys
Hi, i have some issues about OBS live, i can't stream cause the kb/s are just dropping and the media request isn't working. Please help 💔
@plain sonnet did you give up on me bud
is there a OBS live for mac coming out anytime soon?
hi there im adding alerts for gift subscroptions on the condition ive put exact on the requiremnt amount it says 0.01 is this one sub?
Hey @full thunder , quick question. OBS must've lost my stream key due to my changing of passwords. Either way, it won't connect, so I changed me Twitch key, but I noticed when I got to Settings - Stream, It doesn't have a box to input my new stream key. It says I can disconnect my account - but I'm worried I'll lose everything. Do I need to disconnect in order to reconnect with a new stream key? Anyone faced a similar issue?
OBS live is freezing/crashing randomly on scene changes, both during stream AND offline. Any ideas?
@zealous vine You don't need your stream key if you already connect your account
@versed wedge For the best OBS support, please join their Official Discord @ discord.gg/obsproject
Thank you, I'll try there!
@rigid perch There's some missing features in vanilla obs that would be needed before it would be possible.
@toxic fern so there is no possible dates on that I guess - thank you tho
Correct.
The obs solution for my issue is to uninstall the SE plugin which I don't want to do - wondering if there's any known conflicts in the more recent updates.
!crashlog
A crash log is required to investigate the cause of your issue. Please upload the last crash log.
- In OBS, click the Help menu
- Select Crash Reports, and then Upload Last Crash Report
- 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\crashesand provide the last listed file.
Question, I have a Sony a5100 and a logitech c930 webcam. When I try to load them both into a single scene one of them turns off. Can someone help me understand why? If I open and close OBS only one comes back
If I switch scenes where there is only one they work fine. But I'd like to have both on one scene

Hi, my in game settings are 1280x729 (4:3), so i reset my Base and output resolution to 1280x729 as well, but in streamelements, how do it resize the overlay size so it fits my frame size
@smoky meteor hit the three little dots
Custom at the bottom 
Also sorry for the phone screen cap I'm at work 
Oh its ok but it just cuts my overlay in half
Then make sure your browser source properties in OBS matches it @smoky meteor
You have to resize it.
@smoky meteor your overlay needs to be scaled down my guy
At least via the overlay layers.
how do you fix alerts not showing on stream or in obs but they are showing in the overlay editor?
@fiery parrot OBS -> settings -> advanced -> scroll down -> enable/disable hardware accel.
https://i.imgur.com/ggMe9ZE.png
how does hardware accelaration have anything to do with alerts not showing in obs, when they show in the overlay editor?
not to mention i already have that enabled
@fiery parrot now please disable the hardward acceleration and try again
still does not work
@fiery parrot You see the alerts on the web editor but no on your OBS
did you check the dimension of the browser source
yes 1920x1080. i talked to them first the makers of the overlay
okay it is showing in obs now, i just completely started over with the overlay
My media request widget within obs.live has been blank for a couple days now. Why isn’t it working ?

@zealous tide Streamelements on top of OBS -> Logout -> login
I have a problem with TTS. It's playing in left ear and it's distorted. On stream it's sounds fine, but i hear it like i described. The same with overlay editor in browser - tts is broken.
I just checked your sub alert which triggered the TTS
and I heard it normally.
Are you sure something is not broken on your side with your windows audio settings if you are hearing it on one side only?
I find it odd if you hear it normally from your stream
but on one side from your OBS
that suggests a windows audio issue
Yeah, i hear the music and the alerts fine. I mean, the sound of the alerts, but only tts sounds bad
Okay, for some reason my interface decided to switch to 8 channel mode, switched it back, sound good. Sorry for bothering you and thanks for the help!
I was not able to replicate the issue using your overlay from the editor
no worries and sure 🙂
Not sure where to post this but looking for information on merging accounts I'm logged into my FB account however when I try to link my twitch it tells me its already claimed
@dusty mesa Account Merging - Please note:
- Merging accounts only allows faster ways to switch between accounts
- Merging accounts does not allow data sharing between accounts - different streaming platforms, different type of events
- Merging accounts allows duplicating/sharing overlays between the accounts
If you understand the limitations of merging and want to proceed, please find the JWT tokens (!jwt) from both accounts you want to merge and you will be directed to DM them to a staff member.
I'm trying to avoid having a different tip page and merch store for different platforms

@rugged quail did you see #widget-share ? There are some widgets to help your live stream.
For example: https://discordapp.com/channels/141203863863558144/457957557470887947/619140761971195915, https://discordapp.com/channels/141203863863558144/457957557470887947/690518619607531580, https://discordapp.com/channels/141203863863558144/457957557470887947/664809625169690644 ..
Hello all! Just wanted to drop a note that the link to OBS.Live on the homepage (without being signed in) is not correct. Features > OBS.Live links to https://streamelements.com/obsLive
I've set up the media share thing and set it to 3 free media shares per user but it doesn't seem to work and people can do as many as they want
@low swift Screenshot this here and what's the exception level at the bottom https://streamelements.com/dashboard/mediarequest/settings
How are you managing SR?
@toxic fern
@low swift Look at the last option.
That's why.
You'd have to set to free only to be able to properly limit requests.
ah okay thank you @toxic fern
can anyone tell me how instant replay feature work in obs?
That's something you'd have to ask on their server
For the best OBS support, please join their Official Discord @ discord.gg/obsproject
But its on the SE page and its a StreamElements feature
Um.... what?
Isnt the Instant Replay feature only available when you use a service like SE or SL?
Maybe a 3rd party thing but we don't provide that.
is it possible to hide your viewer count in the activity feed dock?
Oh what? I literally just saw it yesterday
Maybe a 3rd party thing but we don't provide that.
@toxic fern
sorry to interrupt
Click the 3 lines in the top left and then option is there.
oh, thank you

Streamelements wont capture my game play can someone help?
i reset my pc and now the chat is white and i can't find how to change it anywhere
Morning all, I found out how to change bot names in obs.live . However I do not have the settings menu ( threelines icon)
Did my install fail? Edit: I think I found why. The button is not present for Mixer connections. Carry on 🙂
@vernal brook Pinned messages.
@rugged quail What is browser 3?
Do you have other overlays in other scenes with the MR widget?
And you don't have the media page or ground control open at the same time?
Which overlay are you trying to use that's having this issue?
How can I not show Discord overlay on OBS?
@sour idol What do you mean?
I do not want Discord overlay to be streamed.
Disable the overlay.
I want to use the overlay though.
Is this for game capture?
Yes.
Right click the game source and disable the overlay capture option.
Is that a new thing or have I just overlooked it this whole time? 
Both are probably correct
When you say game source, where do you mean?
@last flower Overlooked
Hecc
The source you chose for the game capture. It's in properties.
That was off.
hi i have a bit of a problem, so i managed to setup my variation of follower alerts the other day and i also hit save so when i looked at my recent vod the alert didnt even pop up can someone help me?
@zinc pumice What use would variations be? You can only follow and get detected once. After that it's not supposed to trigger.
And follows are for 1 person not multiple.
i dont understand your concept? the use would be obvious it provides more content
@sour idol if that's the case, then I don't know if it's possible. It sounds like it's on a different load than what OBS is expecting, and ignores it. You unfortunately might be out of luck 
@zinc pumice That does make sense but follower alerts are basically 1 time use. Nothing can be added after/alongside it after it triggers for someone.
Okay. Thank you.
Sorry 
You can ask in the OBS server but they might have the same response.

hey sorry don't know if it's a common issue and been answered before - my obs.live docks disappeared, how can I get them back
@forest sage top of OBS, the StreamElements tab
it's not the overlay one, so widget?
okay they appeared back once I did "bot and tipping setup" and closed out of it
@forest sage your docks aren't in a sub-menu, they're directly in the StreamElements tab in OBS. Right in the middle of that list for future reference
they weren't there hence I couldn't enable the docks

how do i re enable the chat in my obs live it's not showing up
@rugged lake Streamelements on top of OBS -> Logout -> login
go to the streamelements menu, then click on the chat dock
thx it works

hello, i don't know if this is the right place but im getting like 20% frame drop on obslive.
been streaming for +-3 weeks and had no problems now i'm constantly getting drops. even upgrade my internet connection to 20Mbps up and still have it.
@stoic walrus For the best OBS support, please join their Official Discord @ discord.gg/obsproject
Can anyone help my overlays arent showing up
hey so for obs is there any remote app i can use for obs, like as streamlabs
which have it
@lone sky Streamelements on top of OBS -> Logout -> login
what does that mean?
@lone sky do you have Activivy Feed open on your OBS.live?
If yes, click on that button Reload Overlays.
After adding the overlays in your OBS in Scenes> Browser they already appeared to you?
no its still black
After adding the overlays in your OBS in Scenes> Browser they already appeared to you?
@lone sky ?
If no, did you configure the size of the Overlay screen in the properties? You must configure the screen size according to the size of the Overlay in the SE (at https://streamelements.com/dashboard/overlays )
I have the right size and it is still just a black screen
@lone sky OBS -> settings -> advanced -> scroll down -> enable/disable hardware accel.

can someone help me solve this audio issue?
my audio keeps on looping for me and i think it might be from the preview is there anyway to mute it
@dawn brook all your audio?
yea like after a few seconds of playing a song i can hear it start again in the background
Question about making goals, if I'm making a Tip/Donation goal under the Twitch section, will that only account for tips from Twitch - or any tip from my StreamElements page?
@dawn brook 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
@radiant stream tip are platform based
@honest echo ive done that already but it still loops
@dawn brook any browser open (with the media reques or web editor open, maybe your stream), check the monitoring devices (obs>settings
@random axle so if I'm using Restream and I want tips from Mixer and YouTube to count towards that, can that happen?
@honest echo no browser is open and the monitoring devices is default
@radiant stream we don't support multi/re streaming
I know. But I'm directing viewers to tip/donate at my SE Page
If you use the same tipping page for all platform, you can use 1 goal widget (of that platform)

He's streaming, he'll be back eventually unless he got it sorted 

so basically i did the setup but the widget didnt pop up
any way you can help? also sorry for the wait i was in a game of valorant
@restive oasis in OBS make sure the dock is active. StreamElements > Media Request. If you have the dock already, make sure a browser source is connected to the overlay with your media request widget on it and that the browser source properties properly matching your overlay's resolution.
Lots of info I know 
yeah im a lil confused
so in the obs live app or on streamelements website
oo ok i see
its on now how do i do that second part

Mostly easier than typing it plus you get visuals haha

Ok i think i understand ill try it now
do you think someone could come test it on my stream please?
And also how do viewers request to play media? should the widget pop up on their screen too or is that only for the video to show it on stream
@restive oasis as long as viewer requests are enabled, the shortcut is !sr YouTubelinkhere
They'll only see the video on your screen wherever you place it in your layout, and as long as you click "show on stream"
Ok. do you think you could come test it i thinks its set up but im not sure
actually nvm my friend is

hey! i'm having trouble with my recordings looking blurry in OBS, i was wondering if anyone could give me some help in a call!
Thank you at @last flower have a great day!
Hello, I am having trouble with OBS.live on desktop, it crashes every time I try to open it and it maxes out my CPU just before it dies.
@alpine hinge please, see how the output resolution scale is...
@blazing goblet are you running the OBS.live as Administrator?
Hello, whenever I try to install the OBS.Live integration with my stream deck it just doesn't work. I hit install and it downloads but it just tells me to hit install again and nothing happens.
@cursive stag - Open %appdata%\Elgato\StreamDeck\Plugins
- Delete the
com.streamelements.obslive.sdplugin folder
That folder isn't in my Stream Deck Plugins folder
@plain mason tried it as administrator and not, both times the crashing issue.
@blazing goblet press Windows+R and type %appdata%\obs-studio\logs and send here the last log file generated when crashed the app.
and the same for %appdata%\obs-studio\crashes...
anyone know if its possible to have the chat dock span the whole height of the OBS.live window?
it seems like if you have any of the docks under the preview window then it creates two "rows" and you cant span the full height. or vice versa, you can have full height but cant stack under the preview
https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/494513233416421386/561516184231477268/fHmL8DscIf.mp4 i dont know how i get there. im stuck on the basic obs layout and dont know how to get to the ground control looking setup
nevermind
got it
i can't get my desktop audio to work do any of you guys know how to fix it? I've tried watching videos and other forums but nothing has worked

When setting alerts for loyalty point redemption, is there a way for a different image and sound to appear for each item?
You need to create an item as a stream perk
@honest echo I did. But it seems as if the images I set in the stream store will not appear as the alert itself. When I go to actually add the alert to my overlay, it seems to want one image that will appear no matter what people redeem.
did you add the redemption widget
That is what I am doing now. It asks for me to upload an image, and currently shows a default gif of a gift box opening.
It is giving me the impression that whatever image I set here is what will appear no matter which item someone redeems.
add the widget and then try to redeem an item
Ah, it worked! Thank you @honest echo, I should have tested it out before asking! 🙂
Hello
Hello, how do i get my stream alerts working through my game headset? I have my teammates and game audio but can't figure out how to get my alerts there. Is it bad to have my alerts through computer speakers? If so there is a way to not have my snowball pick up everything twice
Is there a chat widget built into obs live or would I have to make one myself
@tight narwhal if you have a headset, make sure that your PC audio is outputting to your headset (it should be if you're getting game audio through it). Depending on how you have your audio set up, it should go to your headphones by default. That's hard to know since everyone changes it a bit
@charred abyss as in OBS so you alone can monitor or one that appears on your stream that others can read? Both are a yes, just need to know
ones that appear on stream
@last flower im streaming from xbox through my laptop. I hear my game audio but cant hear my audio alerts. I can only hear them through my laptop speakers but feel like my snowball mic would pick it up and it would sound awful
@charred abyss on the Overlay editor, click the little blue plus in the bottom left, should be the very bottom option
@tight narwhal unfortunately without direct headset out from the computer, it'd just play through the speakers and echo into the mic, yeah
If you're using a capture card, that's another story 
@last flower so having the chat link cable with legato there isn't an option?
elgato
Oh yeah @tight narwhal with a chat link it's not possible. This is why it's difficult to know. So many variables haha
Sorry man 
grrr thanks for the help!
Is there a way to capture friends audio without the chat link cable?
Hello, whenever I try to install the OBS.Live integration with my stream deck it just doesn't work. I hit install and it downloads but it just tells me to hit install again and nothing happens. I'm not able to delete the "com.streamelements.obslive.sd" folder because It doesn't show up in the plugins folder.
@tight narwhal probably, but for that you'll need to ask obs specifically
For the best OBS support, please join their Official Discord @ discord.gg/obsproject
how do you put your custom overlay made on the site into obs live 👀
@charred abyss 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 sorry, had something that pulled me away from my PC.
@blazing goblet 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+)
hello everyone does anyone know why my hosts arent showing up or doing the alert]
they arent even showing up on my twitch activity feed
@vital dew 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.
how do you do custom transitions?
@ashen saffron For the best OBS support, please join their Official Discord @ discord.gg/obsproject
hi SE team.. i tried using your custom overlays in my OBS scene but when i do, the browser source is blank. I did all the instructions mainly: " 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 tick the Shutdown source when not visible"
TIA for the help
Does the overlay actually have a widget in it?
If its just the alert widget it will be blank in OBS
yea..i think it does because in addition to the overlays, it has social media buttons and text, plus the frame for the webcam..
so i think it suppose to have it?

should i untick it? currently it is enabled
I have a question. I'm currently setting up Scenes in OBS, and I have an overlay saved in my Overlays under Alerts & Overlays on the website. When I add the link to OBS and save it, I can right click on the source and open properties. Under the URL link it says "Open in STreamElements Overlay Editor" When I click on that button, a StreamElements window opens and says "Uh-oh... Overlay does not exist."
AM I doing something wrong?
@rugged quail Streamelements on top of OBS -> Logout -> login
I used to stream on mixer, but now I have that constant popup 'authencate with mixer' when i start OBS. Can I remove this somewhere?
Can you show what you see?
That seems like a custom dock
where do I find the custom docks?
View -> docks -> custom dock
That is def. not a dock from OBS.Live
ok now its working! thanks keizar and the support bot also
its most likely wanting you to connect your mixer account to OBS
check settings -> stream
I'm only connected to twitch so that's why I am so lost haha
I'll try to figure it out since you say it's not obs.live
@whole bison Streamelements on top of OBS -> Logout -> login
try this then
hi, anyone can help me with the confing of obs, because i see many tutorials but always my stream get lagged
@cunning sentinel 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 
@cunning sentinel 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.
How do i link my youtube account to obs?
How do i switch my alerts and stuff over to youtube?
@proven arch Account Merging - Please note:
- Merging accounts only allows faster ways to switch between accounts
- Merging accounts does not allow data sharing between accounts - different streaming platforms, different type of events
- Merging accounts allows duplicating/sharing overlays between the accounts
If you understand the limitations of merging and want to proceed, please find the JWT tokens (!jwt) from both accounts you want to merge and you will be directed to DM them to a staff member.
@shy mountain sorry for replying so late, the logout didn't work for the auth of mixer. I'll just row with it, just tedious 🙂
Hello i get hosted and it's not even showing up in my activity feed

@gleaming tide go to my overlays then select one you would like to use then click edit 
Hi. Apologies for the bother because this is probably something silly being overlooked by me. But in OBS LIVE, when I stream, how do I make all the scenes work together? If my video streams, my audio doesn't. If the overlay is selected, then nothing else is. Thanks in advance.
@leaden fog I went into the edit, and I was able to edit them, but I can not find how to add them to the stream
@gleaming tide 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

Hello all,
When i use the Youtube Log in on OBS Live, on the chat in the ons live i can type as the owner of the brand account that i linked and i am streaming and not as the brand account. can you help me? i log in and out many times but its the same....
means i want to type as Ntouk for example and not as per my name. on Youtube i have Ntouk as a Brand account.
When adding the over lays, I have to put each on to their own scene right?
@gleaming tide only into their own source. You can have multiple overlay browser sources on one scene
When adding the over lays, I have to put each on to their own scene right?
@gleaming tide depends what you're going for
Can you add multiple in one scene? Sure, they're just browser sources
But then you need to toggle them on/off based on which you want to see
I have My main overlay and my Game capture on one Scene, but if I wanted to add a Be Right Back Overlay, would that have to be on a different scene?
Normally yes, that is the way to set it up. And you then switch between the scenes.

Hey guys I'm new to obs and know almost nothing. I'm planning on streaming fighting games in the future and I'm trying to get the fightstick motions display to work. Thing is i had it working before i installed obs live and stream elements when only obs studio was installed. All im seeing now is 'press a button' in the fightstick motions overlay in obs whenever i press a button on my stick. My main question is does installing stream elements or obs live change a browser setting i don't know of that I can change or does it flat out not work? Any info is appreciated.

@fading walrus Please contact us via email for support with SE.Pay. You can use our contact form here: https://streamelements.com/contact Thank you
@simple pendant not to my knowledge, it shouldn't be affecting unrelated components
@karmic grotto is that on stream elements or on obs
@merry glacier open the overlay preview from SE dashboard
and use the simulate in the editor it should output sound in the editor and in the preview
also it would output in the OBS too if u have added the overlay there, but as u said u have no sound from alerts
@karmic grotto I simulated it through the editor on the website simultaneously with the Stream Elements program and it still played the song in the background
but u can't hear it in OBS ?
so its very easy to solve XD
in OBS right click the audio mixer open advanced audio
and in the overlay web source listed u will see a Monitor OFF dropdown menu
setup it to monitor only
@vestal forum
you know that will cause echo on stream right..
I can hear it in stream elements on the program and when I emulate it while editing
Not sure if its a bug because i changed the sound the other day and never heard the song play behind the sound
Now its fixed? Haha thanks for the discussion, stay safe everyone
@short loom the format may be incompatible
@merry glacier try to check if your operating system has been updated recently or has an updated audio driver.
Sometimes it can be a system failure. What you can do is run Audio Troubleshooting, if it's Windows.

@last flower so if a compatible file does exist the option would not be grayed out? Because It will not let me select the option in general
@short loom right. If it's just off fivver it was probably just an image file, right? You can import those as a straight image, not an overlay import. Just make sure the canvas of your purchased overlay image matches the size of your SE overlay
hey guys whats the max storage size for cloud backup? I have nothing in there but it says I dont have enough space?

cheers! 😄
@flat oar I believe it's possible but have not much true clue in explaining how 
fair enough
thanks anyway, gives me the spirit to keep investigating
because atm whenever I click Start Streaming it makes me sign into StreamElements using YT/Twitch/whatever and defaults to using that platform
If not I know standard OBS Studio will allow it @flat oar
yeah, we've been running of that for a few weeks now, it's just cause I know OBS.Live allows more in terms of transitions 😂

Hello can someone let me know if the Monstercat default on the media request is subject to copyright or if we are allowed to use that in our streams.
Monstercat has its own licensing department, you need to buy a stream license from them
It's like £12 a month or something like that
nvm, $5 per month
and that clears your YouTube/Twitch channels for their music, even in VODs and normal videos if you publish to YouTube
i am having trouble with the update for StreamElements OBS.Live i come up with error opening file for writing

is my understand correct that SE feeds obs?
can someone tell me why my host valerts arent showing up but for someone elses stream on obs live it does can i have someone other than a bot to help me thanks
@vital dew 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.
All bot responses from support AI are triggered by staff or volunteers like we blue Bois 
like inm not even getting hosts in activity feed
They won't appear in the activity feed without the above parameters either
i got a 70 viewer host and it didnt show up should it or should it not show up
Ok that should haha

Trying to determine how to keep my animated webm files from flickering. I have tried setting it as a Asset/Rotation Slide Show and lowering transition time to .1 but when the 35sec animation ends it disappears for a few seconds before the loop restarts. What is the correct way I should add an animated webm file so that is displayed as a continuous loop with not drops.
#helpdeslobslive
I can not minimize my application, the minimise and maximise gui are not there any I can not get them back, my screen is not in full screen... please help thansk
@zealous saffron you have empty frames in your webm. You need to edit the video and delete the extra blank frames then re-export.
@twin sand F11
If F11 doesn’t work drag your taskbar and make it larger
Im using obs live from streamellements. When Im testing my stream shop items I receive the updates in obs. When Im real live they wont show up. Do you have a idea whats going wrong?
Do you have the redemption widget in your overlay? @fathom bison
Yes I have @lilac ocean
@kindred fox thanks for the heads up. Reaching out to the creator for the sources files/corrections.
there is two things you can try @fathom bison, is the overlay dimensions correct? needs to be 1920x1080
and otherwise you have to turn on/off your hardware accel, lets see if the dimensions are correct first
The dimension is correct @lilac ocean
OBS -> settings -> advanced -> scroll down -> enable/disable hardware accel.
https://i.imgur.com/ggMe9ZE.png
can you try this for me?
It's on @lilac ocean
was it on before? Do enable or disable it and try to see if the alert comes through
Okay I will test it in a stream. Thanks so far and have a nice day!
No worries, if that hasnt worked, be sure to ask in here about it 
I've got a giveaway running right now on my StreamElements and my viewers want to see how many tickets they have purchased, is there a command for this?
hi, im having an issue with stream elements
is wierd but i have the login screen as my previw screen and my overlays cannot be reloaded
if i start the stream my this screen come up
@static vortex Check your overlay url.
@grave oak They can see the tickets on the public giveaway website.
I can't see them @odd kraken . And my viewers have told me they can't see them either?
https://gyazo.com/ac9c3b5de4a673baa860d04ef21f60b6
https://gyazo.com/9d593d93e6b764cb6b8690d713348eea
It says you have Total: 0
Yeah their my points, I want to see how many tickets bought people have
and if there is a chat command that allows people to see how many they have purchased with their points
Hi, today I streamed GTA V and had a drop in FPS while playing on Twitch. Not sure how to fix it?
@grave oak I think you can see the entrants here: https://streamelements.com/dashboard/giveaways and they can only see their ticket amount on the website.
Hi guys, I'm having trouble and I'm unable to find or figure out how to fix my sound. The problem is I have audio on obs however but the audio in the stream on twitch is all messed up ( static ) I have tried on multiple computers in different states and the problem is still there. If I join a discord chat the audio is crystal clear. any help advice? I am running a sound blaster Z sound card with optical settings.
is there a way i can intergrate spotify using streamelements obs instead of youtube
@stoic brook unfortunately Spotify API isn't supported anymore.
oh oka yits just hard to find good music on youtube that is good to listen to while streaming
That's why I leave it to viewers 
and one more thing i lost my streamelement bot and i dont know how to put it back in
@stoic brook Go to the dashboard -> right side -> part channel -> join channel (https://streamelements.com/dashboard)
Question. I have setup a Media Source with an MP3 files for my intro music. When the Scene becomes active the MP3 is visibly playing as evident in the Audio Mixer however no audio is being heard. If i open the properties of the source and save it while still on the stream the playback restarts and you can then hear the audio. This is happening every time I transition to this scene.
im new to using stream elements obs live was using streamlabs but its got to where they want to charge money for everything when being a new streamer
@stoic brook 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.
I moved to SE a few years ago and despite some minor problems I'll never go back to SLOBS
It's so much less buggy in my experience
@zealous saffron make sure your audio mixer settings (the cog next to your source name, advanced settings) has monitoring enabled. Also make sure any audio properties you need to change, such as your PCs default audio device, are changed prior to opening OBS
@stoic brook unfortunately that's a lot to ask. I don't know what your goal or genre preferences are. There are copyright free libraries out there but they might not be your vibe
@last flower it is configured to Monitor and Output. If I click on the actual source and open it then close it playback is then heard. Otherwise its playing but no output.
that's interesting
Stream elements messages aren't showing in the chat on my overlay. In the chat view in OBS they show with a red background. Can I change it so they show in the overlay?
Im sure I saw a setting somewhere that hid stream elements messages
When I start the stream everything is ok, but after a short time i start losing frames until my stream freezes and nothing happens anymore.
Im trying to connect my Xbox Companion app to my stream, but when I do, it doesn't fit to the screen correctly, how can I fix this?

Hello, how can I mute the Media Request to my Headset but have the viewers still hear it?
@vivid slate How to separate media request (MR) audio in OBS:
(Please follow one of the steps for your set up)
MUTE MR FOR YOURSELF, STREAM CAN HEAR
• Make a new overlay in the editor, ONLY add the media request widget,
• Add a new browser source in OBS, add the URL and set the dimensions correctly,
• Tick the box for "Control audio via OBS"
https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/712428275049431120/716618713998033047/unknown.png
• Go to Edit > Advanced Audio , set your MR overlay to "Monitor Off"
NOTE: This will play through the Desktop Audio, if you mute your desktop audio, it will mute the MR.
CONTROL AUDIO SEPARATELY FROM YOU AND STREAM
• For this you will need a VAC (use command !vac),
• Run your MR either in Chrome or in Ground Control (use command !gc),
DO NOT CLICK "SHOW ON STREAM"
• Set Chrome or GC in the VAC as an audio input and output,
• Add the audio output from VAC as an audio input in OBS,
NOTE: this will not be able to show the video in OBS
It is currently not possible to separate audio for yourself and stream if you ALSO want to show the video in OBS.
The only way to do this would be to follow the last set of instructions above and then use Window Capture on GC or Chrome.
Thank you 
how do i add an alert box from stream elements into obs
@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
I'm needing help with something. My question is. I just setup a new source and added the web browser. I added the custom alert into the stream elements, yet when I go live from obs and hit the test button. It doesn't show my new alert. How do I get this working/fixed?

@lament forum You can test Alerts via the Emulate bell on the lower left side of the Overlay Editor. Simply go to your Dashboard -> My Overlays -> Pencil/edit button on the overlay. Make sure the "Preview LIVE on stream" option is on to see the alert in OBS/Xsplit https://streamable.com/vtulg9
@lament forum 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.
Then how do you use stream elements with mixer?
Okay then how can I get the alerts to work with streamlabs when I go live.

Hello, this is probably a noob question but I legit know nothing about PCs. Everytime I stream, my fps is good, my audio is good but stream crashes every 5 mins. And it seems to be cause by my internet dropping, my ethernet cord is plugged in and my internet is fine literally anytime else. However sometimes when I start streaming theres a warning of high encoding. Would this be a problem with my internet, or my specs. Please help :c
@remote canyon that'd be specs limit usually

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.
Hey guys, anyone here uses AVerMedia Capture card? In particular Live Gamer 4k? I have jumping sound issues with it in obs, anyone maybe knows how to help? Thank you! ^_^
You should contact Avermedia support.
hopefully this is the right area. where can i find my streamelements username. im trying to delete an account so I can link it to another. I am getting the error account is already claimed
@pure pollen Account Merging - Please note:
- Merging accounts only allows faster ways to switch between accounts
- Merging accounts does not allow data sharing between accounts - different streaming platforms, different type of events
- Merging accounts allows duplicating/sharing overlays between the accounts
If you understand the limitations of merging and want to proceed, please find the JWT tokens (!jwt) from both accounts you want to merge and you will be directed to DM them to a staff member.

Hello! I was trying to submit a suggestion that there be bonus points awarded to people who subscribe, and I saw where someone mentioned that currently there IS a bonus for subscribers. I don't have this option. I only have for viewing, following, tipping, and hosting. Am I missing something here?!
Hey yall, just wondering if anyone knew how to switch between twitch accounts so that they show up in the activity monitor in obs. I have my personal account and a different talkshow account and it is stuck on my personal account's activity feed if that makes any sense.

Hey.. I'm sorry I'm prolly just stupid and can't do google right but does obslive work in other obs supported streaming sites or does it only work for fb, twitch, YTand mixer?
StreamElements currently only supports those four streaming sites.
Thanks!

I am trying to set up multiple webcams in OBS and I get the first one set up just fine but the second is not working. I have used different ports and reloading drivers for webcams. Even the restart of OBS several times hasnt worked.
my SE wont open from desktop
@late dawn that can be dependent on a number of things. For example, different ports doesn't mean a different BUS, which multiple are required to run two. Try one in the front USB (if possible) and one in the back
@last flower I did that and still didnt work
can anyone let me know how to fix this?
obs works by itself but when i download obs live it doesn't
@distant wagon Uninstall OBS.Live. Keep OBS Studio.
Launch OBS Studio. Delete all browser sources from all scenes.
Reinstall OBS.Live. Remake your browser sources.
will try rn thx sm

Currently using a PS4 transferring to Elgato capture card into my Streaming PC, i've get the video transferring but theres no audio

my elgato works great on streamlabs as we speak
Hey, can someone help me? My host notifications won't work.
@torpid tinsel 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.
i've setup the audio input as line(elgato sound capture) but not getting sound
okay forget what other devices i use, how does a beginner new to all of this set up their audio, please help

Did you read the bot message that I triggered for you twice?
Yes. I tried getting my friend to show online and host me. She has 4 viewers and still no notification. My lowest is set to 0 AND my notifications aren't muted.
And what did it say in your chat?
Screenshot the message that appeared in your chat, please.
x is now hosting. I checked if they were showing online in twitch and they were.
Please see the Note in the bot message.
I did. And I made sure she was showing online and she was. Is there something I'm missing?
If there is no viewer number tacked on to the notice, then Twitch did not consider it to be one of the following:
-Online
-1+ viewer
That's Twitch's system.
So someone has to raid then host for it to work? I'm just confused
No, a raid is not required.
How do I get it to work then?
The stream hosting must be online and with 1+ viewers. If these conditions are not met, you will not see a viewer number tacked onto the notice. If you do not see a viewer number tacked onto the notice, an alert will not play.
OKay thank you
Is there a way to reroute the audio to a different track for Media Request?
Is there a way to reroute the audio to a different track for Media Request?
@green veldt yes, do you use any software to reroute, like voice meeter?
I am using voicemeeter
If you use VoiceMeeter you can configure a virtual audio device to your OBS use it. For example, Potato Audio by default has 2 virtual audio devices (Aux and Vaio3) and you can use one of this devices to separate your audio track from Desktop audio. Then you can set on the Windows 10 in Advanced Sound Settings, on the Volume of the App and Preferences, you can set the OBS to reproduce audio in device audio that you choose (Aux or Vaio3) on your software (VoiceMeeter, Banana Audio, Potato Audio) to play the Media Request track.
And, on the OBS > Settings > Audio you can disable all Devices and add your devices manually on the Source > Audio Input/Output Capture ... or use Desktop Audio 2 selecting the OBS's virtual audio device (Aux or Vaio3). If you prefer disable all devices, you will add the virtual audio device configured as a new Source > Audio Output Capture > and select the virtual audio device of OBS. The same for others devices as Desktop audio, Widget/Overlay audio alerts, Microphone... 🙂
Advanced Sound Settings: Windows menu > Settings > System > Sound > ...
Alright, ty for the help. Might have to spend some time rerouting other pre-exisiting virtual cables around.
I was using my Elgato HD 60 S to capture video and audio till Voicemeeter stopped recognising the Elgato HD Audio, does anyone know why this is happening?
@hardy tulip If you are having issues with Elgato hardware or software, we recommend reaching out to their support here: https://e.lga.to/help
I don't have a problem with the Elgato device it works , just voicemeeter not recognising the HD Audio from IT.
@green veldt you can use virtual cable (A+B+C+D) to help you if you don't have any left... you can download/install one virtual cable (for free)
and you can buy (donate to receive) others cables (A+B+C+D), if necessary. 🙂
I'm using the virtual cable free on the Potato...
🙂
@green veldt it seems to be difficult, but it isn't very... following the steps is easy!
@plain mason Its actually not that bad! Explanation is super super helpful to be honest.
I need help with two things. 1) I recently got a new mic and is only echoing through obs. In game and everywhere it sounds perfect and I cant figure it out. 2) For some reason on my obs itself there is a preview and a program and its never been there before and I cant just get it to show my scene

I imported my Alert Box from Streamlabs, but when I copy the link and add it as browser source it does not pop up. Even with all other sources invisible. When I go to the overlay editor I don't see a way to import from URL or to integrate my old Alerts. Would be great if someone could let me know how to use my old alerts.
If you've imported your SL alert widget
then make sure you add it properly as size
!res
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 Thanks that solved it for me 😄
Is there a reason why all of a sudden my stream has started to vary between 52-60 fps? I haven't changed any settings and my internet speed hasn't changed either...

how i export overlays to obs?
Hello, i have a problem with my streamelements, it doesn t want to capture the game, any help?
Are you running OBS as an administrator? @grim mauve
@mellow obsidian 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
it usually works, i wanted to stream a new game, like csgo, i selected the specific game,but all i got it s a black screen . and no, i never opened the obs as an admin
but i will try it now
it s the same
black screen
@lilac ocean
@grim mauve please be patient
and dont use the commands
have you tried another capture source like window or display capture? @grim mauve
