Delete that source and add it again with the correct dimensions. @wintry cloak

wintry cloak
#

Deleted, added with correct dimensions and still no image, though the words at least aren’t cut off

odd kraken
#

Try to enable/disable Hardware accell.

wintry cloak
#

Same thing

#

Well, except for some of the alerts it works

odd kraken
#

only some alerts do not work?

wintry cloak
#

Donations worked once but then hasn’t worked since

#

I saw everything perfectly, but then I tried the tip event again and no image

steel bladeBOT
#

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

wintry cloak
#

Nope. :/

#

I’ll try to create a new browser source

#

Didn’t work.

odd kraken
#

I am gonna ask internally on your issue.

wintry cloak
#

Thank you! I appreciate your help!

Hey all - I've been trying to use obs.live. I've tried reinstalling it a couple of times but the problem is I get a bunch of visual artifacts on the streamelements plugin windows. Any suggestions?

steel bladeBOT
#

@tepid temple Please follow these steps:
close OBS,
open the Nvidia Control Panel,
in the left menu select "manage 3D settings" and then under the list of options (right panel) press "restore default settings",
Start OBS again.

tepid temple
#

I love you Support AI. Now to figure out what nvidia option is causing this 😦

#

It worked though

odd kraken
#

@wintry cloak If you add an image soure to that overlay, does it show?

wintry cloak
#

Are you talking about on the Stream Elements site?

#

If so, yes

odd kraken
#

yes.

@wintry cloak can you press windows+R
paste and search this
%APPDATA%\obs-studio\basic\scenes
then DM me the .json file

#

thx

wintry cloak
#

no problem! I tried to dm but it posted here

plain sonnet
#

no worries, i got it, let me just look through

wintry cloak

Alrighty, Thank you so much for your help!

tender python

Just download and install the plug in I’m assuming
@sly delta through scripts, yes

plain sonnet
#

@wintry cloak could you emulate an event for me quickly please, anything will do

wintry cloak
#

Send you a picture of it?

plain sonnet
#

did you get just text or a picture also?

wintry cloak
#

Just text, and the text was there for about 15 seconds or so

plain sonnet
#

ok, and the same with that one? only text?

wintry cloak
#

Actually text is there for about 30 seconds, yes

plain sonnet
#

should there be any images on those alerts?

wintry cloak
#

Yes

#

The images show up in stream elements

plain sonnet
#

how do I move the obs live to a different moniter?

#

it always opens up and stays on the same one and I cant move it

Uh, that's weird. You should be able to? Click the middle button so it isn't maximized, drag it over?

Hello, I have a problem with my obs.live, the transmission chat says "error loading data" can someone help me please?

@alpine sun Streamelements on top of OBS -> Logout -> login

#

Thx ❤️

hardy gull
#

Any idea why I would have worse performance than in slobs? This seems so much less resource intensive but I get insane dropped frames

hidden jackal
#

guys, do someone know what is the best setting for obs amd for streaming warzone?

steel bladeBOT
#

@hidden jackal 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

How do I fix a grainy webcam? I am trying to setup my webcam and there seems to be static or grain to it.

obsidian cradle
#

is there a way to have the media request widget default to "On". a restart turns it off and makes me need to turn it back on.

timber depot
#

Hello! Apologies if this has been asked before, but I could not find something similar from a quick search.
I am trying to configure the bot for moderation. Right now it is timing out the user that posted a link, but is not giving them the reason. It also deletes all their previous messages. Is there a way to configure it to delete just the message with the link? Thank you!

obsidian cradle
#

@timber depot it should only timeout for 1 sec on first offense then 500 secs timeout for the next offense. when a user is timed out it deletes all messages in chat from that user

#

deleting all messages on timeout is a twitch thing.

odd kraken
#

@timber depot No, the bot can only time people out and there is no message from the bot in chat when it does.

timber depot
#

Thank you!

obsidian cradle
#

its suppose to provide a message telling them why they got timed out

#

like how my question got ignored though. gg

heavy blade
#

Does someone know how to set up the panel where it allows me to change my Twitch description & stuff?

steel bladeBOT
#

@heavy blade 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
timber depot
#

@obsidian cradle I do have the message, but I am the only one seeing it. The user themselves only sees their messages deleted and no indication why.

obsidian cradle
#

@timber depot it should tell them in chat. not by whisper

odd kraken
#

This is not correct, this message is only visible for mods and the broadcaster.

timber depot
#

@odd kraken this is more like what seems to be happening and was wondering if this is normal.

odd kraken
#

yes, this is intended behaviour.

timber depot
#

Great, thank you.

odd kraken
#

@obsidian cradle The settings in the media request section should stay after a change or reload of the page.

obsidian cradle
#

they don't, i click "Show on stream" refresh and it is off again.

odd kraken
#

Ok, the show on stream action has to be hit every time, the page is reloaded, yes.

obsidian cradle
#

i don't want to turn it on manually for every stream. i want it on all the time

odd kraken
#

Not possible from what I know. At the beginning you would need to press the button, as the overlay is then active.

heavy blade
#

Where's the panel where it shows my followers and subs and stuff?

#

Thanks, guys!

odd kraken
#

StreamElements > Activity feed.

visual gust
#

hi im having a problem with obs, i have media request enabled but whenever i click "show on stream" double audio plays

steel bladeBOT
#

@visual gust 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

Should alerts be on the scene overlay or as a separate element? I'm having an issue where if i place it on the scene overlay the audio plays about 4 times

grizzled marsh
#

Whatever works best for you but the beauty of StreamElements is that it can all be one browser source. However, it really should not be playing four times.

crystal cypress
#

its as if its delayed in playing on each scene. It's a nerdordie alert so im on support with them

grizzled marsh
#

@crystal cypress Be sure that in all your scenes that you have a StreamElements overlay that "shut down when not in use" is checked in the properties.

Crossposting to this channel to incase helpdesk-twtich is wrong place:
I saw another question above about something similar but going to ask since it didn't seem resolved. !kappagen is only kinda working for me. Regardless of the number I put it always only sends 1 to screen. e.g. !kappagen musicNote 50 ... am I doing something wrong?

slate valve
#

Hello, I'm pretty much stuck here for the past few minutes

#

I'm importing from StreamslabsOBS

zinc lark
#

@slate valve looks like it is done, so I would just "X" out and check to see if everything is there

slate valve
#

It gives an error if I click X tho :/

zinc lark
#

I am unfortunately not familiar with this issue, but there are two things I would try before going too far.

  1. Run it with SLOBS open.
  2. Run it with SLOBS closed.

If still erroring, close both, run OBS as admin and try again. Even a computer restart can help sometimes

#

Good day! I want to ask about animated theme preset. It is not animated both in my OBS and stream, but in preview it works. I am using Mac and I have copied the URL to the browser in OBS. Do anyone have any idea? Thanks

shy mountain
#

OBS on Mac may have issues rendering our animated themes

#

and I would recommend using the static variant

#

@slate valve It can fail due to:

  • Copyrighted assets from SL
  • Media assets being over 100MB
  • OBS sources that cannot be converted into overlay items, such as standalone music/sound bites
slate valve
#

oh alr. thats unfortunate. ty btw

rugged quail
#

alright copy that. I thought this was probably the cause. Thanks a lot!

Hey team!

#

I am a current long term Streamlabs user looking to move to SE due to the advanced functionality that is provided. Can I please ask some questions around the programs and features?

soft cove
#

Activity feed dock -> 3 lined button on the top left -> Stream settings -> toggle
@shy mountain its not here

shy mountain
#

The viewer count is only available for Twitch users

#

Facebook doesn't provide the viewer count via their API so we are not able to show it

soft cove
#

oww i see . thank you 🙂

shy mountain
#

@tranquil shell Yes

tranquil shell
#

@shy mountain want me to drop them here or are you available to DM? 🙂

shy mountain
#

Its best here

tranquil shell
#

Okay great!

Streamlabs has a system where by you pay a yearly subscription and get access to a custom website etc, does SE have any similar paid features etc.

Does SE have the ability to make Stickers and accessories through it's merch store?

Can I set elements in OBS live to cover one entire side of the screen?

shy mountain
#
  1. We are 100% free service. Everyone gets the same thing. Only different is our Dreamteam members receive some additional perks, but thats about it.

  2. I would suggest to check our FAQ here: https://support.streamelements.com/hc/en-us/articles/360011391080-SE-Merch-FAQ - it has all the items listed and anything that is not listed is not available or it might already be planned

  3. I'm not sure what you mean by that.

tranquil shell
#

Can I have the chat bar run all the way down the side rather than be confined to the top 2/3rds

shy mountain
#

or

#

have the bottom row of docks be as small as possible and this is the maximum you can have it

#

or you can undock the chat dock and stretch

#

but thats about it

tranquil shell
#

Okay! How do I remove entire windows from that display? 🙂

shy mountain
#

View on top -> docks -> start unticking the docks

#

but i would not recommend it cuz you will loose the scenes and start/stop streaming buttons

tranquil shell
#

I want to remove media request actually

shy mountain
#

Streamelements on top -> media reqeust or the X button on the dock

tranquil shell
#

Any way to change the colour of the activity feed section?

shy mountain
#

only from dark mode to white mode and vise versa

tranquil shell
#

any functionality of moving the viewer count from activity feed to anywhere else? 🙂

shy mountain
#

No - the viewer count is bound to our docks

#

You can connect your account directly into OBS and have the Twitch stats dock open

Hello everyone. Is there a way to selectively record on OBS.Live? As in select which overlays/sources end up in the recording and which don't (akin to slobs)

drifting patrol
#

Anyone got time to help me with Media Request pls i got my overlay done . when i put it into my overlay dose it go under browser source?

steel bladeBOT
#

@drifting patrol 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

#

Okay great! Is there a page link I can send my moderators so they know what all of the chat bot commands are?

Hello, I have a problem uploading a video as a notification alert. When I upload it, it is not lagged, but as soon as I make adjustments and change the site its starts to lag a lot in the OBS but not on the Streamelements website. I already tried to compress the video or export it in another format but that always happens to me. Is it a problem with my OBS? Thank you very much.

shy mountain
#

@formal folio I would suggest to convert it to .webm file and then upload

#

and then try this:

Does OBS.live have an Undo function when editing overlays?

#

In SLOBS you can undo placements and transform actions on sources etc., can't seem to find it in .live

shy mountain
#

For sources and such, im not sure, but since you said editing overlays, the built in overlay editor has all the functions of the overlay editor from the dashboard

sage wedge
#

I mean inside of OBS.live itself. I prefer to edit overlays in the program rather than website

shy mountain
sage wedge
#

I put my overlay together in OBS live, not the streamelements website editor.

shy mountain
#

I don't understand where you are seeing streamlabs in the video I just showed you

sage wedge
#

I recently transitioned from SLOBS and was therefore under the impression that I could do the same here, in-program

#

typo

shy mountain
#

You are not being clear here then

#

What exactly are you looking to edit?

lilac ocean
#

I think V.F. is meaning that he wants to edit in OBS.Studios

#

like within a scene

sage wedge
#

Here are all my elements. Inside of OBS. Let's say I move one of them, and don't like its position and want to have it back

#

In SLOBS, I could just hit ctrl+z

#

And it would put it back the way it was. There was basically a "history state" within OBS itself

shy mountain
#

Thats an OBS feature then, as OBS.Live is a plugin for OBS Studio.

steel bladeBOT
sage wedge
#

I see, thank you.

tranquil shell
#

How exactly does the chat stats function work? I go to it and it says 404 error

steel bladeBOT

@tranquil shell If you changed your name on Twitch please follow these steps:
🔹 Visit https://streamelements.com/logout and then log in again with by connecting with Twitch.
🔹 On the right side of the dashboard page that opens, select "Join" under bot settings. If it says "Part" select that and then select "Join" to send the bot to the chat. Don't forget to mod the bot by typing /mod streamelements in your channel if you have not already.
🔹 Post your old and your new name here so that we can update your channel's chatstats tracking (must be done by staff).

tranquil shell
#

Will doing this keep all of my commands intact?

#

I believe my old username was MaxPanda_ and my new one is just MaxPanda

yes it only changes your username

Excuse me, I need help with trying to upload a specific file for an alert variation. It says that one of the acceptable formats are .gif files, but I can't find the file when searching for it to upload, I've tried to drag it in while finding it through my file explorer but it still won't take the file. I don't know how to get it to take the file

shy mountain
#

When setting an image or video, make sure you click on the right option. If its an image/gif click "change/set image"

#

if its a video "change/set video"

Hi, I launched the program and was prompted to update, I did, and now when I launch it I am greeted by a white preview screen. nothing shows up there at all, not even that annoying prompt to link youtube and twitch or whatever

Is there any way to update my username on SE? It displays as maxpanda everywhere but it is meant to be capitalised as MaxPanda

safe knoll
karmic grotto
#

can u try to reinstall it monmaker? probably a bad update happnened

safe knoll
#

will that reset my scenes and stuff?

karmic grotto
#

could, i recommend first backup your profile and scene collection in the top menu

safe knoll
#

How do I do that?

karmic grotto
#

in the top menu, i mean the OBS menus in the superior

#

there is 2 categories

lilac ocean
#

can you try relogging first?

steel bladeBOT
#

Streamelements on top of OBS -> Logout -> login

karmic grotto
#

hm, i think he is not even logged @lilac ocean as he said the buttons for logging in not even showing

safe knoll
#

It says login, but when I click it, nothing happens

maiden horizon
#

is there a way to hotkey start/pause media request ?

safe knoll
#

Looks like there is a slight loading circle in the white area, then it goes right back to white

karmic grotto
#

is there a way to hotkey start/pause media request ?
@maiden horizon yep in the obs settings go into hotkeys and there should be hotkeys for pause mute unpause voluume up and down

lilac ocean
#

@safe knoll ill ask around about this first before you reinstall straight away

safe knoll
#

ok

tranquil shell
#

Is there any way to update my username on SE? It displays as maxpanda everywhere but it is meant to be capitalised as MaxPanda

maiden horizon
#

@karmic grotto is the media request audio coming from the browser? so i just mute the audio in the browser? I cant pause and unpause the actual media request like clicking the button in OBS.live?

safe knoll
lilac ocean
#

can you try, View > Reset UI @safe knoll

safe knoll
#

doesn't change anything

lilac ocean
#

alright, was worth the try, im waiting on an answer in the mean time

karmic grotto
#

@karmic grotto is the media request audio coming from the browser? so i just mute the audio in the browser? I cant pause and unpause the actual media request like clicking the button in OBS.live?
@maiden horizon if u use it in browser it will come from the browser, i recommend using the one inside obslive

safe knoll
#

So, it looks like it works just fine if I switch it to OBS Studio, it's just when trying to use OBS live that it gives me trouble

karmic grotto
#

also u need to use the obslive MR if u want to use hotkeys

maiden horizon
#

what is obslive MR?

lilac ocean
#

Mediarequest

maiden horizon
#

oh ok, yes i use the one in obs.live

#

i just can figure out how to hot key it

#

i know how to use the hotkey settings, i just dont see any about media request

lilac ocean
#

use the StreamElements -> Report an Issue feature in OBS.Live so that staff can properly look into it please @safe knoll
It's been a known issue with OBS.Live

maiden horizon
#

i found the hotkeys... i was looking in the OBS settings, I found the Media Request settings - hotkeys

rugged quail
#

good day

#

i have a custom alert i made on another webiste how do i add the alerts with a url i was provided with

#

i made it with muxy

steel bladeBOT
#

@rugged quail 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

rugged quail
#

another thing is

#

how do i integrate it into streamelements

tranquil shell
#

Is there any way to update my username on SE? It displays as maxpanda everywhere but it is meant to be capitalised as MaxPanda

distant breach
#

I'm not familiar with Muxy, but if you put the URL in that highlighted area it should show that source. (if you have HTML/CSS/JS code then it is a different setup)

rugged quail
#

it does have css code

distant breach
#

It is linked to your log in account @tranquil shell .... I'm guessing your Twitch name is lowercase

tranquil shell
#

Yes my twitch name is lowercase and my twitch displayname is uppercase

distant breach
#

i'm honestly not sure there is.... i can see your Discord connection and even that is lowercase. I'm guess that S.E. along with many other places is grabbing your twitch 'username' (also lowercase) instead of the 'display name'

tranquil shell
#

ahh that's unfortunate! 😦

#

Another question, are alertbox settings global. IE, should I be setting up one master alert box and adding that to my overlays or doing it one by one?

distant breach
#

where exactly is your name lowercase that you would want for it to be 'Display Name' ?

tranquil shell
#

on my main profile

distant breach
#

I personally (and i'm not great with OBS) just have 1 master alert box. Then I copy that to other scenes.

tranquil shell
#

It flows through to tip page etc

distant breach
tranquil shell
#

Maybe I did something, I don't even know anymore. Thanks for helping anyway! 🙂

#

Is it possible to group overlays?

#

Hi, I need help if possible with working something out. I just become a affiliate so decided to buy a pc to be able to put overlays on top of the stream.
I have got most things working I think, but when I copy my overlay url (from streamelements) into my obs, I add a browser source to my scene, paste the url, click on shutdown when not visible, and set dimensions to 1920 1080.
And for some reason when I click accept, I doesn't show anything on screen, just the box outline, no overlay, alert sound or anything.
Could someone possibly help me find out what I'm doing wrong, and what I can do to fix it ASAP, as I had my very first subscriber last stream, and missed him even doing it for the first 10 mins because I had no notification to the stream atall, not even a chat bot

Congrats on the affiliate! ... i am not great with OBS, but what you have said so far is correct. Are you using the 'Alert Box'? and when you go to the overlay editor you should see a 'show love on stream' option in the emulate menu. Can you post a screen shot of what you see in OBS; i'll grab one of my newb setup

unreal eagle
#

Thanks alot! It's all exciting but now it needs to be professional lol. Yes I have that on here, just getting it up to take a pic of

distant breach
#

that is correct. on the overlay editor; when you click a "follow" or "sub" event they pop up?

#

🙂 and good blackout with the URL

Hello, I wanted to upload a soung file that is .ogg. As screenshot says, it should be supported, but I try to upload it there is an error. So I looked up at network and in network the response is: 415 - Unsupported Media Type.

lilac ocean
#

ill ask around for you @dense helm

dry sphinx
#

I think converting it to .wav may help

dense helm
#

I know, but the thing is it shouldn't be there as supported you know. It could lead to confusion for somebody wondering why the hell it is not uploading.

dry sphinx
#

Are you using Chrome?

dense helm
#

Firefox

dry sphinx
#

Try using Chrome & see if it uploads.

#

SE site loves the Chrome

unreal eagle
#

Yes they pop up on screen there, but that's as far as they get, will it have something to do with the fact that my actual gameplay capture is through a ps4 remote play window, I have took a quick screen record to show it all, but I wouldn't be comfortable sharing on a open channel @distant breach

dense helm
#

Uuuh, I have only Vivaldi as 2nd browser.

#

@lilac ocean thank you

distant breach
#

I understand @unreal eagle, I'm going to pass along to someone with more experience with OBS

dry sphinx
#

@unreal eagle Do you have your Overlay Source above your Game Capture in OBS?

unreal eagle
#

@distant breach thanks!! Amazing fast responses 👌🏻 @dry sphinx yes, I made it to be on top of everything

dense helm
#

@dry sphinx tried Vivaldi (same engine) and it worked. Weird.

#

thanks anyway

dry sphinx
#

Vivaldi prob more Chromium than Firefox. I never used Vivaldi but glad it works Pogey

@unreal eagle So just to be sure when you do a test alert: It only shows up in the Editor & not in OBS?

unreal eagle
#

@dry sphinx no it doesn't show up atall in obs, I just tried again 😭

dry sphinx
#

Do you have the Overlay dimensions set to 1920x1080 in OBS & is Hardware acceleration turned off in OBS @unreal eagle ?

tranquil shell
#

Can you group overlays? 😦

unreal eagle
#

@dry sphinx where do I find hardware acceleration? And by having them set in obs, I think so, when i click add source, browser etc in obs, then paste url, direct underneath I put the dimensions

steel bladeBOT
unreal eagle
#

Ooo okay!! Found it! It's on, so I need to turn it off correct? I feel like I sound so dumb but I'm brand new to pc within the past week

#

@dry sphinx omg, you fixed it, straight away!!! Thank you so much!❤️

Hello all. I can't seem to get the OBS.Live Media Request DOCK to show in my obs, any ideas? I recall it being there when I was setting it up but can no longer see it. The option to add it into my docks also isn't there.

unreal eagle
#

It looks amazing now! Thanks to you my stream can finally start to come together and look professional

dry sphinx
#

You prob just have to sign out of OBS.Live & sign back in @shy kestrel

#

Glad it's working now, Ravenn.

Can you group overlays? 😦

Hello everyone, I have a question... sometimes I have to restart OBS a bunch before the sreamelements widgets load in, is there a reason for this?

wary dew
#

Can you group overlays? 😦
@tranquil shell overlays or sources in OBS?

#

sources: yes

tranquil shell
#

Overlays in the stream elements editor

wary dew
#

you can group layers

tranquil shell
#

Yes but i want to be able to group the actual overlays themselves

#

Otherwise im stuck assigning them games to remember whats what

wary dew
#

nope

#

not possible

tranquil shell
#

Is that a feature coming? :/

wary dew
#

i've made an idea on the ideas page

#

you can upvote it

Link me? 🙂

anyone know why stream elements timers arent working no matter what i do?

hardy gull
#

hello, any idea why tips seem to be taking a hard priority over recent bits in the event list? is it maybe because the tips had to be imported?

Hiii !! I have a little problem... OBS Live is at 70% of my CPU, and I just can't reduce that... :/

tepid temple

Using the Stream Elements Editor. I'm trying to put text over an image but I do not see that option anywhere. The order of layers in the edit section on the left is set to have the text on top of the layer I'm placing it in front of. However, no matter what I do it hides behind the image. Any thoughts?

steel bladeBOT
#

@rugged quail 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
#

please give me one of those

#

screenshot the cpu percentage as well

#

and check the following:

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

lilac ocean
#

^shutdown source when not visible should be checked

When I get bits, my tts doesn’t always work. It worked with the 200 bits but everything under didn’t get a tts noti. The sound effect worked tho

odd kraken
#

Check your variations.

dapper pine
#

I did and I have none

#

When I emulate bits they work with every amount

odd kraken
#

Have you checked the TTS activation amount in the TTS settings?

dapper pine
#

It’s on nothing

#

Not 0 but none

odd kraken
#

Set it to 0 and try again.

dapper pine
#

Aight but I’ll know next time I get bits

#

Because the emulating does work

odd kraken
#

You can replay the event in the activity feed, which did not get the TTS.

dapper pine
#

Oh ok I’ll try that

#

I got it to work, thx for your help @odd kraken

Hi, I was trying to stream destiny 2 and the game capture was a black screen. How do I fix this?

wary dew
#

by using a window capture

tender python
#

and/or checking the game capture settings

wary dew
#

D2 doesn't allow game capture

tender python
#

did it?

wary dew
#

yup

#

they opted out

tender python
#

still not fixed huh

sour sequoia
#

ok thanks for the help!

rigid geyser
#

@lilac ocean how do I check that? And why does it get stuck on importing alerts when I can just browser source them anyway?

Also I haven't even got alerts checked and it still imports them

shy kestrel
#

Hey boys. Annoying mapppi back at it again

#

Still can't find the Media Request Dock. info on it, relating specifically to that OBS live DOCK is also sparse.

plain sonnet
#

media request is in the Streamelements menu

Check the stream elements menu

#

I'm so sorry. wtf I'm so dumb. Why did I not see that LULW

all good 👍

dim gyro
#

Hi. Does the amount of different scenes in OBS effect the performence of my PC?

e.g more PC takes more perforemce

plain sonnet
#

scenes, no.

sources (and more importantly sources on in the background (ie browser sources not set to shutdown)) yes

dim gyro
#

so filled scenes with sources yes then

#

Is it just browser sourecs I need to check the shutdown option or something more?

hardy gull
#

so does anyone know what the actual numbers in the wireframe for the cup reference so i can properly mod them?

Can anyone please help me ASAP

rugged quail
#

Any guides on adding stream layouts?

rigid pine
#

I have been using browser source hardware acceleration, but now the browser source is only showing a black screen. Audio is fine. Turning off HW acceleration in OBS fixes it, but makes the source stutter (which is why I had enabled it). The only thing I can think of is I recently updated my Nvidia drivers and Chrome. Any ideas?

tender python
#

so filled scenes with sources yes then
@dim gyro it depends..

#

you can have 200 sources, but while managed well, can take little performance.

#

if you leave them all enabled.. ofcourse. that'll hurt

@urban quail @rugged flint Do you guys mean the overlays? if so, you can change the text, click on the label and then go to settings

@urban quail it's static.

#

they can't click your overlay

rugged flint
tender python
#

again, it's static.

rugged flint
#

seems rough because i can't resize the overlay graphics

tender python
#

they wont be able to click it, if you think that's the case.

rugged flint
#

ok so basically put the handle names in there

tender python
#

Yes 🙂

rugged flint
#

ok one last question...i can use normal obs to alt+click to move a border to crop or expand it. obs live doesn't seem to recognize that. is there some other shortcut?

tender python

#

Yes Thanks

rugged quail
#

sorry late reply lol

tender python
#

1: that's a browser game

#

2: you can't game capture, browser games.

#

3: use window capture. @rugged quail

rugged quail
#

i used display capture

karmic grotto
#

that will capture your entire screen, and if for some reason you open up a photo of your credit card, boom :/ better use window capture for preventing mistakes @rugged quail

@sage river overlay general should be fine here

#

#

@wary dew says no 😛

#

@rugged quail chrome sometimes does this, i don't know exactly why, but the latest 25.0.x OBS should've fixed this

rugged quail
#

Oh

sage river
#

will it show my subscriber count once I start streaming?

wary dew
sage river
#

kk

rugged quail
#

I think I have that ver

#

Idk

#

I’m mobile rn

tender python
#

MS Edge (chromium) works fine for me

#

but CHrome is indeed ymmv

rugged quail
#

Oh

#

I have windows 10

tender python
#

yeah as per 25.0:


By default, it will use "Automatic", which will use the normal method on most windows, and the new method on browsers, browser-based windows, and Microsoft Store (UWP) programs
The downside of the new method is that it can cause a bit of cursor lag, as well as a highlighted border around the captured window. The border itself does not get captured, however.
You can choose which capture method to use in window capture properties```

WHY DOESNT OBS LIVE HAVE A UNDO FEATURE I JUST ACCIDENTLY DELETED A WHOLE SCENE WHEN I WANTED TO DELETE A SOURCE!!!!!

yes and spent a hour tinkering for obs live cause the import didnt work

wary dew
sullen idol
#

why dont you guys have a simple undo button

wary dew

it's just stock OBS with a plugin, so you would be better off asking in the OBS Discord server

i know things like this are super frustrating, for future reference: it might be useful to make a backup using the cloud backup function after completing a scene.

@covert acorn Audio mixer setups are a bit too complicated for us to provide assistance with here.

steel bladeBOT
#

@tough inlet There is no easy way to unlink 2 owner type accounts from each other. The only way is to make a closure request from here: https://streamelements.com/dashboard/account/security
WARNING: In submitting a closure request you will delete both linked accounts and loose all data from both accounts. This includes overlays, custom commands, timers and past data(tips, subs, etc). You can still relogin with the deleted account, but you are essentially starting fresh.

@fickle depot Screenshot your OBS window please.

#

I tried closing it but nothing is happening

@timid delta Please describe the behavior in detail.

Hi guys , i cant found the information about transmition on obs, help me please

Ok. So i create a Media Request Overlay in streamelements and when i copy the link into my OBS live it doesn't show up on stream, just an empty box. @tulip hamlet

steel bladeBOT
#

@timid delta 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

#

@timid delta 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

timid delta
#

I Have done that many times

#

When i click show on stream on media request panel in my obs is says no active widgets were detected

#

Although there is one activated

It does not show up on my OBS stream preview is that okay ?

How do I disable animation for an alert box? Don't want any show or hide animation since I've already animated exactly how I want it

lilac heron
#

on your alert there should be the animation settings that you can change to none

#

@ornate jay

ornate jay
#

@lilac heron Under show/hide animation there is no option for none

lilac heron
#

is this for like a follower alert etc? Cause if it is you clcik the alert box select the alert you want to change by clicking the wheel. After that scroll down the side to animation settings and you can change the animation to none @ornate jay

Hello, anyone wanna help me figure out why streamelements only shows my first available redemption as a video and not any other ones?

#

using an overlay

#

only displays the first redemption as a gif+sound but not any of the other ones

#

what am I doing wrong?

ornate jay
#

@lilac heron This is the alert box widget

calm swallow
lilac heron
#

@ornate jay yea so you can just do what I said before to make sure the alerts dont have any additional animations

#

unless I am misunderstanding what you are trying to do/explain

calm swallow
#

if anyone else comes to this for answers. Make sure you have the items you want showed as "stream perks" and not just a sound effect

#

i accidentally solved this myself

#

sigh

distant breach
ornate jay
#

@lilac heron I don't have any option to not do animation here. Can select none for things like text, but not for the whole alert.

lilac heron
#

that is not streamelements

#

or is it?

ornate jay
#

streamlabs obs

lilac heron
#

ah okay yea you are in streamelements discord, try stream labs discord

stray wadi
#

sorry if I am in the wrong spot. Im trying to switch stream elements to stream on switch but it keeps making me use youtube. i have both accounts on the website. It lets me put in my stream key and pulls all twitch stuff out but when i hit stream it brings up youtube

steel bladeBOT
#

@stray wadi Streamelements on top of OBS -> Logout -> login

stray wadi
#

@steel blade did not work.

ornate jay
#

Hi. So I'm using 2 separate alerts for my overlay. Is there a way to test them both at the same time? I need to make sure they sync properly

distant breach
#

You can emulate them on the overlay editor; should see them in OBS

ornate jay
#

That let's me emulate one but doesn't emulate the second overlay I also have

distant breach
#

Are both overlays checked with that button?

ornate jay
#

They would both be follower, but they are separate overlays since I can't CSS text placement, so I needed a second box to place where I want my text

distant breach
#

When you emulate one; everything will emulate at the same time

ornate jay
#

I think I found the issue. One is through Streamelements and I did the other as an alert box through Streamlabs. Ugh, now I'll have to redoi it

distant breach
#

Ahh. yes. that would be an issue as well.

ornate jay
#

This worked, however the overlay canvas size isn't correct. Is there a way to change this?

distant breach
#

Try the 3 dot options button on the main overlays page

ornate jay
#

Bless you

upper copper
#

For some reason the EXE for OBSLive wont install, any ideas?

distant breach
upper copper
#

StreamElements website

#

Still no luck, EXE wont launch @distant breach

ornate jay
#

Well, have imported and everything looks good, but the only emulated alert that'll actually work is the follow one. Rest do nothing even though they appear to be set up

distant breach
#

try to right-click run as Admin. Which Windows are you using? And post a screenshot of your error please 🙂

upper copper
#

Win 10, no error listed, simply wont launch the prog @distant breach even as admin

distant breach
#

Are you running any anti virus that might be blocking it? .... this might be a Windows issue.

upper copper
#

@distant breach I suspect it is, I will try to disable AV, do I need Firewall down as well?

distant breach
#

I just grabbed the .exe package from the website and it boots

#

shouldn't need firewall down for it to load the main install screen. but if you get errors when it downloads other files, then yes.

upper copper
#

@distant breach is the exe launcher CPU intensive?

distant breach
#

@ornate jay .... i'm trying to reach out to others that have done an import from SLs and see if maybe there is a quick fix

#

not to my knowledge on the CPU intensive

ornate jay
#

I actually figured out what had happened, got it corrected.

#

Custom CSS was enabled for some reason, disabling worked

distant breach
#

can you post here so that i know in the future 🙂

#

ahhh. alright. thank you

half reef
#

Hello, not sure if I'm in the right channel but I'm trying to get one of the alerts to fill up the whole screen 1920 x 1080. Is this possible? And what does Opacity do? I assume it would make your alert transparent but it doesn't seem like it.

distant breach
#

First question is yes. Second is also correct Opacity 0-1, 0 being invisible 1 being opaque

#

For the first, you want to set the 'text over image*' option ** then you'll want to had a 'margin top' to the text .... like 540- 1/2 font size should be close

half reef
#

@distant breach thank you for the reply and the link. I will take a look at it. When I emulate it though, it doesn't seem to centralise it, resize it or show faint opactiy. Not sure if I have to hit save first before checking the emulate. But I looked at your link, there might be some tips there on the margins.

distant breach
#

Are you looking on the Website or on OBS (there should be no margins if you are making it full screen)

half reef
#

I am going through stream elements software editor for OBS

#

Not streamlabs

distant breach
#

🙂 perfect.

half reef
#

I'm also using Firefox and I'm wondering if it is the browser that is making it weird.

distant breach
#

Generally, Chrome works best. but what you see in OBS is what stream will see

#

I set up a quick overlay with what I mentioned above and opacity at like 30%; this is what my OBS sees

#

that 'coral' image is not normally there on the right

half reef
#

Yeah, that looks great. Exactly what I want it to do.

#

I've got text over image, position and style - 1920 x 1080 px. Opacity 25%. Top and Left O px. However, it is just not doing that. I do have a GIF image though, so I'm not sure if that is also a factor.

distant breach
#

So; first question is. do you have the 'custom css' toggled on or off?

half reef
#

oFF

sharp hedge
#

Hello

distant breach
#

ok ... phew. that is good.

#

make sure your alert box is set to full screen dimensions @half reef

sharp hedge
#

I just made my overlay but I dont remember how to add it to obs

steel bladeBOT
#

@sharp hedge 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

half reef
#

@distant breach yup, I've got that. No margins also. So I'm going to try to enter on Chrome and see if that makes a difference.

distant breach
#

🤞 if it doesn't please share a screen capture

half reef
#

@distant breach thanks for your help though! Really appreciate it 🙂

distant breach
#

Do they work on the website editor?

fossil bluff
#

yes the overlays come up and everything but one someone subs it doesent pop up

distant breach
#

when you emulate the events on the website do you see them in OBS?

fossil bluff
#

i dont know ill check right now

#

ok yes the emulate events work

distant breach
#

so is it working now @fossil bluff that you are emulating?

fossil bluff
#

yes

distant breach
#

🙂

fossil bluff
#

i think they were just glitched at the time of me streaming

#

thanks for the help

distant breach
#

no problem. glad it's working now. happy streaming!

fossil bluff
#

actually one more question how do i change text in overlays

distant breach
#

In some of the prebuild ones; it's best to alt-click the field. then you should be able to edit on the left menu

fossil bluff
#

i pressed alt click but theres no thing there for me to change the text

distant breach
#

can you post a screen shot?

fossil bluff
#

yes

#

do i post it here in this chat

distant breach
#

yup.... just don't show the URL!

fossil bluff
#

ok

#

thats the menu that pops up

distant breach
#

click the settings tab at the top

fossil bluff
#

it works

distant breach
#

🙂

fossil bluff
#

thanks because it was showing my old yt name

distant breach
#

no problem 🙂 i had that same issue making mine hahaha, it's a common thing

lilac ocean
#

@rugged quail did you set the right dimensions?

rugged quail
#

I guess so, yes.

hearty bolt
#

I think I'm having a similar issue to @fossil bluff, but my alerts aren't showing in OBS when I'm emulating them - and subsequently aren't showing when they're actually triggered. I do have the sound coming through though which is annoying

lilac ocean
#

can you get me a screenshot? @rugged quail

rugged quail
#

yessir

steel bladeBOT
lilac ocean
#

^try this

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

lilac ocean
#

you'll have to add the overlay to obs ^

rugged quail
#

Ok. Still appears as YourName

#

altohugh I edited it

hearty bolt
#

@lilac ocean oddly my version of that jumps straight from Network to Hotkeys - I don't have a panel for Sources.

lilac ocean
#

altohugh I edited it
@rugged quail try editing the actual text and not the layer title

rugged quail
#

Yes, got it

lilac ocean
#

@lilac ocean oddly my version of that jumps straight from Network to Hotkeys - I don't have a panel for Sources.
@hearty bolt what version from OBS are you on and what version from OBS.Live?

rugged quail
#

How do I unlock a widget? last question 😄

hearty bolt
#

Running OBS 25.0.8 (mac), which is the latest version, but I haven't got OBS.Live downloaded, just been generating alerts etc through the browser site.

lilac ocean
#

ahh alright, yhea OBS.Live doesnt support Mac indeed, I'll actually have to ask about this then, since i dont have Mac experience

hearty bolt
#

Sorry! Haha. The moment you asked I figured that was going to end up being the issue. It's just annoying that I get the sound alert but not the media/graphic part.

lilac ocean
#

Yhea i can totally relate on how that is annoying, im just going to ask around if we can do something about it bordea1Thumbsup

hearty bolt
#

Beautiful. Thanks @lilac ocean

lilac ocean
#

can you try this for me?

steel bladeBOT
#

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

hearty bolt
#

Still just getting the sound without the alert in emulation

lilac ocean
#

the overlay with the alertbox is above the capture source?

rugged quail
#

And how can I create a Followers Progress bar, that actually updates itself with my followers count?

hearty bolt
#

Yep, the Alerts Browser Source is at the very top

wary dew
#

And how can I create a Followers Progress bar, that actually updates itself with my followers count?
@rugged quail click on the big + button in the overlay editor and type: follow in the search bar

rugged quail
#

I did add the followers goal bar, but it doesnt work as in updating and stuff.

#

I currently have 27, it says 24.

steel bladeBOT
#

@rugged quail To reset goals:

  • from the overlay editor -> session data on top right (monitor symbol) -> goals tab -> reset progress of desired goal
  • from the dashboard -> activity feed on the left -> widget data on the right -> goals tab -> reset progress of desired goal
    Note: Goal widgets(progress) only counts up and doesn't go down automatically, if you loose followers/subs
lilac ocean
#

Last thing you can try is readding the browser source @hearty bolt
Otherwise I'm sorry that I'll have to say we can't help you with the Mac support, you can try in the OBS Discord however, see if they can help you!

steel bladeBOT
hearty bolt
#

I'll give that a go and if not, I'll check out the OBS Discord. Thanks for the help though @lilac ocean, very much appreciated!

No worries, hope it works out for you!
