Oh what do you suggest I do? @distant breach Do you know if it's possible to have OBS.live without the latest version of OBS (25)

tawdry harness
#

@ornate wren Streamelements on top of OBS -> Logout -> login
@steel blade This actually works if your custom bot is failing, is under the tab of obs StreamElements -> Logout and then login and will work again it worked for me

distant breach
#

If you run everything in normal OBS Studio does it?

rugged quail
#

Let me check

distant breach
#

the "live" is just a plugin for OBS. for some extra SE features.

rugged quail
#

Do I check that by logging out of stream elements once I'm in OBS?

distant breach
#

that should help us figure out if it's an OBS thing or a OBS.live thing.

@keen viper 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).

ya. still getting 0 errors in your log @rugged quail

#

i think the help over at OBS will be able to help you the best

rugged quail
#

@distant breach This is the only game where I've experienced this problem. The rest seems to work fine

distant breach
#

is it CS GO by chance?

rugged quail
#

Hitman (2016)

distant breach
#

ok. (there was a CSGO thing a couple days ago that broke stuff)

#

jump over there and ask if anyone has any tips for Hitman 2016; and give them your log files (both are clean)

rugged quail
#

Mm oke I've first experienced the problem on 9th of july. also the first time i tried the game so

#

Oke thanks

distant breach
#

🤣 they might tell you it's a game issue. or the might know a hidden setting to check

fervent ocean
#

Hi, i suddenly (after a PC reboot) get a TCP 4444 error message, any idea what that might be?

distant breach
#

but everything looks clean in your log file. you have less errors than me 🙂 (i only have 3)

tropic nimbus
#

anybody knows why the hypecup is not working for youtube subs? i use obslive too
anybody that can help me ?

fervent ocean
#

Figured it out, i removed the "move transition" plugin, as well as the Live pluging from SE, Booted up OBS, no problem, re-installed the Live plugin, booted up again no problem.
There seems to be a issue with the "move transition" plugin.
All fixed, sorry to bother you

restive bone
#

Can i change the Widget to Dark/Night mode in obslive? They are white for me and pop into my face.

#

Im kinda blind already 😉

tawny iris
#

I have a little Question about the streamelements overlays, is this the right place?

restive bone
#

helpdesk with your platform would be the correct channel so for twitch #helpdesk-twitch

#

Here is obs.live plugin for obs. 😉

tawny iris
#

Yeah, i know...but here is no "#Streamelements-Overlays" so I was unsure

#

@tawny iris Welcome to the helpdesk! Please let us know how we can assist you today and a support volunteer or staff member will assist you as soon as they are available. Thank you for your patience.

tawny iris
#

I would like to upload my alert that I created in After Effects to the Streaming Elements Cloud, the problem is that I need a transparent background and don't know how to upload it. For example, MP4 files automatically create a black background and avi files are not accepted

wary dew
#

webm

#

or else the file will be too big anyway

#

the maximum size it can be is 30mb

steel mural
#

@cursive oracle Please keep your questions in one channel. Asking in multiple channels only causes confusion

cursive oracle
#

My bad sorry

tawny iris
#

WebM create a black background to

wary dew
#

it's something with the proper alpha channel, but that is totally out of my knowledge base

glacial bear
#

does anyone know why obs keeps crashing for me on startup? I'm pretty sure it's because of streamelements because i reinstalled obs studio and it was working, but then i reinstalled obs.live and it started crashing again. This has been happening since about a week ago

tawny iris
#

I render it i MOV and "RGB + alpha Channel" (transparent background), then i convert it to webm (black background)

I setup a Browser Media, but when the music is playing, I can't decrease the volume, and in the Streamelements site is muted, the the only way is from the windows sounds, but that decrease the alerts sounds (follows, subs) and I don't want that. I think I sould change something from the OBS, but I don't know what exactly. Thanks

plain sonnet
#

media request is designed to be with obs.live , not slobs

do you listen to the media that is requested or is it only for viewers?

sage laurel
#

Yup, I listen it too, but very high (that's why I why to decrease the volume) and if I lower it from Mixer, it still sounds loud

timber musk
#

anyone know how to put the pop ups and back ground stuff on to obs from streamelements?

plain sonnet
#

the only work around you would have would be to separate the source.

read the steps for the first option, but select "MONITOR ONLY" in the advanced audio properties.

steel bladeBOT
#

@sage laurel 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 SEheart

Thanks

hey i got a question so when ever i open stream elements it opends up some stuff that give 20+cpu to my pc and it makes stuff lag so i have to manuly remove it is there any fix or do i just have to contino doing that

runic sedge

Hi I really need some assistance. So I used the WebM Plugin in Adobe media encoder to render out a stinger transition but when I switch scenes in OBS It cuts the transition short and its kind of laggy. Any suggestions?

#

hi is there a way to have 2 soud output , one from my discord and one for the game im playing?

rugged quail
#

but everything looks clean in your log file. you have less errors than me 🙂 (i only have 3)
@distant breach Haha thanks for the help though! means a lot. Not getting any help yet in the OBS Community channel 😢

sand whale
#

So it's safe to say after searching old posts, that the only solution to the double audio when clicking "Show on stream" for media share, is to do the shutdown source when not visible option.

However, when I switch scenes, it pauses the song to load up, and then starts playing it again. So unless I want to stay on the same scene the whole time, i'm kinda screwed

mild bluff
#

I am new, trying to setup Media request. When I start it, I get an error saying "no active widgets were detected for media request" but I can't see to figure out how to activeate the wodget

#

And it does not show up in my available sources

cosmic frigate

idk if this is the right place for this, but is anyone else having issues with Snip everytime they open obs?

obtuse jolt
#

Hey everybody, dont know if this problem has already been mentioned or resolved yet, but i cant seem to update my stream title from the dashoboard on OBS.live. It shows the title and says i can change it but when i click on it it doesnt allow me to alter it. any suggestions would be greatly appreciated

steel bladeBOT
#

@obtuse jolt There is a bug with setting the stream title in OBS and the Dev team is investigating.
In the meantime you can set the title using the !settitle command in chat (if enabled in your bot command settings)
Or with the Twitch dashboard: https://dashboard.twitch.tv/stream-manager

I am constantly getting encoding overload on my obs.live. My bitrate is fine. It started doing this a few days ago and now it seems to be getting worse

my csgo is blackscreen when i try and use game capture, ive reinstalled obs, changed my res and aspect ratio but nothing is working

plain sonnet
#

Valve has implemented a Trusted Mode which does not allow OBS to hook CS:GO using Game Capture. See: https://blog.counter-strike.net/index.php/2020/07/30736/

You will need to run the game in either windowed or borderless windowed and use Window Capture instead. Alternately, you can launch the game with -untrusted but this will lower your trust score with VAC and may affect the quality of your matches.

i already get blatant cheaters in high trust factor it doesnt matter anymore lol

How can I disconnect my FB and Mixer accounts from SE? I don't see that as an option anywhere in my account.

weary dragon
#

how do i connect my themes from the stream elements website to my streamlabs OBS?

steel bladeBOT
#

@weary dragon 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

#

@waxen cosmos 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.

weary dragon
#

Okay thanks

random wagon
#

okay i think this is the place to ask. i ccant edit my title/game in the stream settings

#

every time I type something, it just moves to the end of the line and i cant do anything to it. I can type and edit it on the website/in chat

waxen cosmos
#

That link is only giving my an option to close my entire account, I just want to remove/unlink Mixer (for obvious reasons) and potentially my FB account while keeping the Twitch and YT accounts as they are.

Hello, I've been having issues with stream elements live obs just shutting down/closing with no error messages. It's like I clicked the exit button to shut it down, but it happens while I'm live streaming. Seems to happen about a couple hours after going live. I've used the original obs without any problems.

i need alot of help

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

OBS.Live is a plugin for OBS Studio and we only add a few docks to OBS Studio

#

We are not able to help with a capture card issue

#

Either ask the support line for the capture card or in the OBS discord

If the capture card is an elgato one:

If you are having issues with Elgato hardware or software, we recommend reaching out to their support here: https://e.lga.to/help

Then either wait in the OBS discord if they can help or check out any support articles from the manufacturer of your capture card.

I noticed something weird on Saturday, so, i was doing my stream nice and chill when i noticed my custom bot was not showing the timers i had set (one of 30min and one of 40mins) and he wasn't showing them.

distant breach
#

for Twitch @jovial lantern ?

jovial lantern
#

yes

#

i tested him rn and he was answering the test message

distant breach
#

the timers require a minimum line message; basically 5 lines in a 5 minute span be default

jovial lantern
#

the only thing that wasn't answering were the two timers i set

distant breach
#

did you have more than 5 chat lines in 5 minutes? not including you or the bot?

jovial lantern
#

lemme check

#

1st timer: 30min - 5 chat lines
2nd timer: 40min - 5 chat lines

see if it spams over and over every minute

Which platform are you using @haughty haven ... haha sorry i though this was Twitch chat

haughty haven

@rotund haven Did you double check that the alert browser source is active and set above your game and overlay?

#

@distant breach No worries, and it is for Twitch, so you were correct. Lol

@haughty haven Yes I did and I made streamelements a mod as well but it is not showing in the twitch chat user list

@rotund haven Hmmm. Can you put up a screenshot of your alert settings?

A screenshot from the obs browser or from streamelements?

@rotund haven Use the 'Emulate' button on the StreamElements site where you set up the alert to test it. As long as it show up in OBS everything is fine. The hosts/raids will only show up if there is more than 2 (although I think 2 people will trigger the alert, from my experience),

hello, is there anyway for streamelements to send out tweets?

warm depot
#

So, my subcount i get from SE is not the same i get from twitch. How to fix? Thinkerz

steel bladeBOT
#

@warm depot Due to a recent change from Twitch API, these features are affected by the change:

  • Ground Control does not have Custom Bot Name
  • Subscriber count will count the Channel and any other permanent sub you may have (+1 or +2 or +3 on top).
    We are working on fixing both issues, but there is no ETA.
    OBS.Live still has Custom Bot name working fine in it.

Hi, I've started using dynamic overlays through StreamElements and converting in to a browser source. After I have set them up they started lagging out, also I always get the warning "Encoder overloaded", that is why I have to disable the preview and minimize OBS while in game so I can have a smooth gameplay, any tips I can fix all this nad utilize Obs as it is meant to be?

@nocturne turret 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.

@agile sinew There is a bug with setting the stream title in OBS and the Dev team is investigating.
In the meantime you can set the title using the !settitle command in chat (if enabled in your bot command settings)

i can assist u with it if u want

that would be great @karmic grotto

karmic grotto
#

please be careful where u paste the files (folders), its not in the bin folder but in the root obs installation folder ( obs-studio by default )

#

u can open normally obsLive after copying the files

#

if it doesn't popup in your workspace of obs then u need to reveal it from the docks (View on Top Menu)

#

when the window openened/attached the proccess is pretty straight forward~ add new target specify the needed values and there u go, don't forget u need to be streaming before runing the multistream engine as it uses the obs encoding datastream (resuming: u need to be streaming something with the normal way of obs to be able to start a 2-stream in the plugin)

this is great info....i'm not on that level at all...i'm going to f that up lol

@crude stratus it would appear that you changed the resolution of your game capture or the game capture window extends beyond the OBS canvas.

Hey, i've just finished my 1st stream and i wanted to use media request from streamelements, it was working fine and my chat really liked it, but i wanted to know if there's any way to disable sound monitoring(so i don't hear it) or at least manage it's volume only for me. Media request was interfering with my gameplay(it was too loud on my headphones resulting in issues with hearing footsteps in game)

#

@thin belfry i had the same issue yesterday when setting up,this resolved it for me:
go to tools tab and run auto-configuration wizard, let it run once and you should be good to go

steel mural
#

@thin belfry Settings > Stream
Disable the checkbox

#

Depending on your audio setup, you have to mess a bit with step 6 and 8

so i was donated money last month and i went to my paypal and its not there

#

i can send screen shots

#

idk how its not there

steel mural
#

1.) This isn't related to OBS.Live
2.) We can't help you with PayPal donations as we don't touch them. They just inform us that someone donated to you so we can trigger an alert. Please ask PayPal directly to help you with this issue.

steel bladeBOT
civic jetty
#

waht is SE.Pay

#

it says the money is in that

steel mural
#

With SE.Pay you get more ways to receive donations like Paysafecard, Credit card etc.

steel bladeBOT
#

SE.PAY is available for streamers who are atleast 18 years old, with bank account under their name in one of the following countries and have at least 101 Follower (Twitch) / 101 Subscribers (Youtube):

Austria, Belgium, Czech Republic, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Ireland , Italy, Netherlands, Poland, Portugal, Slovakia, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, United Kingdom, United States.

If you meet these criteria and don’t see SE.Pay, let us know.

For information on SE.Pay payment methods, their fees, and settlement times see https://streamelements.com/dashboard/tipping/fees.

civic jetty
#

well its just kinda weird cause stream labs i could link my paypal and i recently switched and i would recieve payments directly to paypal. i just never seen this process to get money. i just want it directly deposited. now its saying i have to wait 7 buisness days for it to be confirmed... yikes

steel mural
#

PayPal works instantly.

civic jetty
#

how do i set up my paypal then?

#

i just registered under the SE.Pay when i didnt want to

#

but i didnt know how to get access to this money

steel mural
#

SE.Pay money goes to you bank account. Not possible with paypal

silver epoch
#

need help adding overlays

steel bladeBOT
#

@silver epoch 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

civic jetty
#

i did that

#

i already ahve that set up

#

but i looked in paypal and didnt get the funds

#

but the SE.Pay is holding my moneyh hostage

#

forced me to register

#

does SE.Pay send to my bank account or does it send it to me in mail in a card?

#

like idk what its fore

steel mural
#

SE.Pay -> Bank
PayPal -> PayPal

tulip hamlet
#

SE.Pay is a different system completely unrelated to using PayPal. Connecting PayPal is just adding your PayPal email where Fabi pointed out. SE.Pay is an alternate payment system powered by Adyen.

#

Connecting SE.Pay is not required to use PayPal.

civic jetty
#

so they balance i have thats pending currently for 7 buisness days will later go to my bank is what im getting from this when approved

tulip hamlet
#

SE.Pay withdrawals go directly to your bank account as a bank transfer.

civic jetty

#

thats what i needed to know

I have a weird problem. I'm not sure if it counts as an OBS.Live problem or a general OBS studio problem though

@hushed token There is a bug with setting the stream title in OBS and the Dev team is investigating.

Hi! is there a setting to turn off the steam overlay and other overlays so they wont show up on my stream
@clever mirage It's the last option on Game Capture Source

#

Mine is in portuguese but it's on the same spot

Yes, I tried

#

that and It didnt wor

#

I still see steam and everything

If you're using a Window or Desktop as source that is not supported

#

I'm having a issue with Media Request. Audio from it is being doubled, like the my app is playing back along with OBS preview
Anyone knows how to fix this? Tried googling it but couldn't find anything

#

wait on a second... I noticed I have a scene that doesn't have the issue... I think the widget is doubled on overlays

clever mirage
#

no its my game capture

stuck comet
#

how can I reset all options from OBS without having to reinstall the software?

#

PS: I wish that my scenes remain intact

tulip hamlet
#

As far as I know there is no "reset to default" option.

stuck comet
#

because I have tried everything to fix this double audio from Media Request and nothing is working...

steel bladeBOT
#

@stuck comet 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

stuck comet
#

already checked all overlays and there's only one widget per overlay

tulip hamlet
#

Double audio is always because you have it active in multiple locations.

#

Make sure you're using "shutdown source when not visible."

stuck comet
#

will try that and what bot suggested

#

ty

#

damn, it's fixed lmao
I guess I forgot to check that option on some source when I created a new scene

#

thanks!! 😄

#

@cyan bluff settings -> stream -> remove streamkey -> add it again from twitch(or where ever you stream to)

@river fable 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.

check the analyzer and you will see why the bitrate is fluctuating so much

Hello folks. I cant seem to change the order of layers from the editor screen built in OBS.live.

Is this normal or is there a fix I can try

#

It works normally when I edit the overlay in a regular browser

misty prism
#

Having an issue with the Overlays page. I made a second overlay which mimics my original (with the top bar, donation tickers etc) but removes the cam overlay in favour of a small social media image which I wish to use temporarily until I can get a new one.
The image isn't showing up on the overlay itself or the preview. I've tried enabling/disabling it. I deleted the image layer and recreated it, still not showing.

#

Well actually, it's in the preview but not showing on obs itself

tender python
#

@dusky silo what browser are you using

#

I can't vouch for the OBS editor to be able to do that

rugged quail
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+)

tender python
#

@dense hull check your audio routing. are you also using the player IN obs?

#

My replies might be a bit late; i'm currently in the office 🙂

dense hull
#

@tender python yes in obs. it has worked previously and played via my default audio output (in this case a pioneer ddjsx2), but i get no sound now and idk whats wrong

tender python
#

Soooo, check your default audio settings @dense hull - and how silly it may sound, sometimes plugging it back in again works..

#

what is the best settings for Audio Buffering ?

steel bladeBOT
#

@rugged quail 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

issues with streamelements alert box either not playing alerts on screen, or no-audio alerts at times? i noticed sometimes it works then suddenly doesnt not alert anymore midstream. i click a bunch of buttons (refresh overlay, pause, skip, etc) then replay it and sometimes itll work again (alert appears on screen and/or has audio). occurs on sub/donation typically.

furthermore, 1 viewer hosts do not show up on screen or in the events/activities.

distant breach
fallow slate
#

(thx btw)

distant breach

fallow slate

manic trout
#

Hello! So, 3 days ago my streamelements stop to show my CS:GO game capture and I try a lot of things to fix it and it didn't work

#

can someone help?

steel bladeBOT
#

@manic trout Valve has implemented a Trusted Mode which does not allow OBS to hook CS:GO using Game Capture. See: https://blog.counter-strike.net/index.php/2020/07/30736/

You will need to run the game in either windowed or borderless windowed and use Window Capture instead. Alternately, you can launch the game with  -untrusted but this will lower your trust score with VAC and may affect the quality of your matches.

fallow slate
#

@distant breach so i cant separate the discord calls. etc. from my music...

distant breach
#

at that point. i am not sure @fallow slate. i only know how to split the source audio not that Desktop Audio part

fallow slate
#

damm

plain sonnet
#

not without additional software. obs audio is per device, not per source

fallow slate
#

ah

steel bladeBOT
left ridge
#

Maybe someone here can help, I want to know if I can download and install only the obs.live addons and not the full obs studio. Some of my games won't show up on the newest versions of obs so I have to use an older version.

cyan bluff
#

I have a question I have tried resetting my stream key and checking to see if the firewall is blocking stream labs and I have researched everywhere and it just started happing we’re I can connect

fallow slate
#

@left ridge when you install obs.live it asks you to intall the plugin, obs studio, or both. only check the plugin.

left ridge
#

@fallow slate yeah that's where the problem is, it won't let me uncheck obs.live

fallow slate
#

also @plain sonnet i don't want to exclude music from my stream, I want to play my nc music in the stream starting soon thing. The problem is, lets say im in a discord call with my friends while my stream is goin. i dont want my audience to hear the call, just the music. its hard to do that bc the media is binded to the desktop audio, which the discord call is binded to as well.

plain sonnet
#

that command is worded a bit meh, but thats what it means.

you can have audio sources separated.

so if you want game audio and music to be controlled individually, thats what it will do.

if you use media request to play music, then you want need the software, as there is a small work around in obs.

however if you want something like game audio and discord audio separate then you will need to use something like voiceemeter

polar brook
#

its still broken the stream titles

aNONE FAMILIAR WITH THE vst FILTERS that can help me?

#

I have no idea what I am doing but I have a USB Mic and someone said I should use these

quiet whale
#

two questions:

  1. My windows corrupted so I had to reinstall everything is there anyway to get all my sources & stuff back or do I have to do it manually again

  2. How do I put chat in dark mode, i had it originally but I have forgotten how to do it

toxic fern
#

@quiet whale #2 is in pinned messages.

#

Did you make a backup with obs.live by chance?

steel bladeBOT
quiet whale
#

I dont believe I did, i know when I used streamlabs it did it automatically for me so I assumed streamelements did as well

toxic fern
#

Unfortunately It doesnt.

quiet whale
#

I was able to recover some of my old windows files including the stremelements folder so not sure if I can import from there or not

#

if not its no worries was just looking to make it a tad easier on myself to set it back up again

toxic fern
#

It would be your obs folder specifically.

quiet whale
#

C:\Windows.old\Program Files\obs-studio

#

This is the file path I have to old obs stuff, that is the right one correct?

unreal stratus
#

Hello , again... I have small problem with Start streaming , w8 I will post error report

quiet whale
#

theoretically I should just be able to copy that folder and replace my new install & it should work? fingers crossed?

unreal stratus
toxic fern
#

Do you have that in a roaming/appata/OBS-studio by chance?

quiet whale
#

let me check

unreal stratus
#

w8 I will check it

toxic fern
#

C:\Windows.old\Users\yourname\AppData\Roaming\OBS-Studio

#

Not you Fero.

quiet whale
steel bladeBOT
toxic fern
#

Go into obs-studio>config>basic

#

Do you have profiles and scenes?

unreal stratus
#

oh.. sry 😄

left ridge
#

Maybe someone here can help, I want to know if I can download and install only the obs.live addons and not the full obs studio. Some of my games won't show up on the newest versions of obs so I have to use an older version.

toxic fern
#

@left ridge Unfortunately not possible as OBS Studio is required and the latest version at that.

quiet whale
#

the config folder isnt there but I got to the basic folder & yes there was profiles & scenes there

toxic fern
#

and if you poke in there do you see the folders with the names of what you had?

left ridge
#

@toxic fern ok thanks

quiet whale
#

just untitled .json files

#

This is all that was in the profiles folder & same thing with the scenes

toxic fern
#

Is that the program files folder or the one I mentioned?

quiet whale
#

C:\Windows.old\Users\Demetri\AppData\Roaming\obs-studio\basic\profiles\Untitled

toxic fern
#

If you open that with notepad do you recognize any of it or is it empty?

quiet whale
#

yeah I see my hot keys & some scene names

#

and I believe the other one had my settings & stuff

toxic fern
#

Then you might be in luck then.

quiet whale
#

so I should just be able to replace the folder that just installed with this one and hopefully fingers crossed everything returns?

toxic fern
#

Yes. You'll still need to make sure everything else that was locally installed is still there.

quiet whale
#

everything should be, it was all on my other hard drives which where not effected

toxic fern
quiet whale
#

sudo you are a legend

#

thank you sir

#

that saved me so much time

#

now ugh how do I back up incase I dont get so lucky next time? LUL

toxic fern
#

You got OBS open by chance?

quiet whale
#

i do indeed

toxic fern
#

Profile and Scene Collections up top. Hit export in both of those and keep those files safe.

#

Otherwise it's just keeping your locally hosted files safe.

lapis topaz
#

im new to OBS Live and StreamElements. i just finished creating my overlays on StreamElements and now im trying to figure out how to get them to show up on OBS. can somebody help?

steel bladeBOT
#

@lapis topaz 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 have a strange one - when I go live with obs.live - it looks like it is loading the chat from the root google account not the sub account I am using for streaming. I am streaming to the correct channel but not idea why the chat is wrong

eager flicker
#

hey i cant deinstall obslive. it stops at the end and it says setup was not completed successfully. what can i do, because i want to reinstall it

tulip hamlet
#

You need to uninstall OBS.Live before uninstalling OBS Studio.

eager flicker
#

i dont have a file named obs.live or an application

#

it looks like this

tulip hamlet
#

OBS.Live is a plugin for OBS Studio. You need to have OBS Studio installed before installing or uninstalling OBS.Live.

#

If OBS Studio is not installed, then you will get errors.

eager flicker
#

@tulip hamlet where can i deinstall thed plugin

tulip hamlet
#

What you're attempting above, in your screenshot, is for the plugin.

#

Again: You will not be able to install or uninstall the plugin without an installation of OBS Studio on your computer.

eager flicker
#

i reinsttalled obs. so now i do the steps i did above

hushed gust
#

so, small problem. i am not able to change the name on my stream title.

#

@frail drum If your commands recently stopped working and you're using OBS.Live and a custom bot name do the following:
1.) In OBS.Live, click on the hamburger menu (three stripes) at the top left of your activity feed
2.) Click on Stream Settings -> Custom bot name
3.) In the "Custom bot name" field select "Set custom bot name", not your already existing username (with capital letters)
Note: If you already connected an account that way, the third entry will show as the account name (see image https://i.imgur.com/sO7fWOX.png)
4.) Scroll a bit down and click on the purple "CONNECT CUSTOM BOT ACCOUNT" button
5.) Log in as usual and "Authorize" the custom bot name
6.) Back in the Activity feed, click on the "SEND TEST MESSAGE" button and check if your custom bot name starts working again

@stiff kernel Our Dashboard and Overlay editor are Chromium Optimized. We strongly recommend using Chrome. Opera GX and the new Microsoft Edge Chromium might work closest to Chrome as its also Chromium built. FireFox also works, but some things might look a bit different or not work. We do not recommend using Internet Explorer with our Dashboard as it does not support functions.
If the website doesn’t work on chrome, be sure none of your plugins are blocking our website or clear your cookies. You can try if the website works in a incognito tab.

@Mystic Nukez#6048 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.

@tall olive If your commands recently stopped working and you're using OBS.Live and a custom bot name do the following:
1.) In OBS.Live, click on the hamburger menu (three stripes) at the top left of your activity feed
2.) Click on Stream Settings -> Custom bot name
3.) In the "Custom bot name" field select "Set custom bot name", not your already existing username (with capital letters)
Note: If you already connected an account that way, the third entry will show as the account name (see image https://i.imgur.com/sO7fWOX.png)
4.) Scroll a bit down and click on the purple "CONNECT CUSTOM BOT ACCOUNT" button
5.) Log in as usual and "Authorize" the custom bot name
6.) Back in the Activity feed, click on the "SEND TEST MESSAGE" button and check if your custom bot name starts working again

Does anyone know how to get my game capture to show up in OBS? I'm trying to stream Need for Speed Heat. It shows up in the drop down menu. But when I click on it nothing comes up. I've tried opening both the game and OBS, as well as OBS StreamElements in Administrator Mode. It was working yesterday, but then it stopped working, then started working again. And now it's not working. Again. How can I get it to work consistently? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Is it possible to have the same camera but different filters on it for different scenes?

#

@west spire 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 asked in the obs they said they didnt deal with streamelemnts and i was sent bk here.

Hi! I'm having an issue with OBSlive since I am currently not able to stream on Twitch. When I press "start stream" I get connected for 5 seconds, and then the output goes to zero. I am also getting an error that OBS has "failed to load channel information for Twitch" whenever i open OBS. I have 2FA enabled, and have never had issues until now.

@strange oak once an overlay is deleted it cannot be recovered

glad fiber
#

@wary dew limit capture frame rate. In game capture. Check or uncheck? Which one is useful?

strange oak
#

that actually sucks. Maybe that can be something implemented into stream elements in the future or a warning before the overlay is actually deleted

wary dew
#

@wary dew limit capture frame rate. In game capture. Check or uncheck? Which one is useful?
@glad fiber no idea what most people use to be honest. i would limit it at the fps you are using for stream

ok i will

thank you chumie

Hey, does anyone know if there is a way to make a custom command on StreamElements exclusive to one user. So only one specific viewer of my choosing can activate it?

@misty vigil not possible, only for everyone, subs only or mods only

That is a shame. Is there a particular reason why?, I've seen other bots do this.

Anyone know if the title change for stream elemants has been fixed yet? I still cant change my title unless directly through twitch

sharp turret
#

@lethal bear There is a bug with setting the stream title in OBS and the Dev team is investigating.
In the meantime you can set the title using the !settitle command in chat (if enabled in your bot command settings)
Or with the Twitch dashboard: https://dashboard.twitch.tv/stream-manager

#

I know that but is there any updates on it is my question.

Still fixing or investigating.

Hello! On OBSLive I go to Stream Elements > Logout and log into a test account, though the tabs on the side for Chat, Stream Info, etc. still show and allow me to edit information from my main account I was previously logged into. How do I change this?

sacred sand
#

Update: Spoke to live support and they said it was an issue they've never heard until now,

#

I uninstalled and re-installed (both OBS and the Live extension), this time with no anti-virus programs enabled, though the same issue still happens. One thing I noticed though: The windows got set up upon first time startup, when I had the option to link my twitch account or use a stream key - THEN I had to log into the main page separately again.

Is it possible there's a 2nd area i'm neglecting to log out from?

tulip hamlet
#

@sacred sand The chat and stream information docks you're using are from OBS Studio, not from OBS.Live. You can tell by the lack of a refresh button in the top left of the dock. Those can be disabled in View>Docks. StreamElements docks come from the StreamElements menu at the top.

sacred sand
#

Is there any way to update them to display info from the test channel, rather than disabling them? @tulip hamlet

tulip hamlet
#

OBS Studio docks are tied to what you're logged in with at Settings>Stream.
StreamElements docks are tied to what you're logged in with in the StreamElements menu at the top of OBS.
They're two separate logins in the same program.

sacred sand

Thanks!

For the past couple of weeks my twitch has been saying ive streamed the same game catagory over and over again even after ive changed it everytime. is there any plans on fixing the title/game title change problem?

#

is there any reason why every source that I copy from one scene to another totally displaces it self different than on the original scene?

steel bladeBOT
ebon zealot
#

thats what ive been doing the past 13 streams but every vod says im playing a game i only played for 1 day which was the day the problem started

mortal bone
#

I want to copy the base UI to another scene exactly as it is on the original one without de organizing like it is now. When I do copy those sources to the stream raiders scene everything A: bounces out of place B: when I move anything on the new scene to put it in place everything displaces on the original source

#

this should not be the case at all

#

I do not get why there is not a simple function to just simple copy and paste a source and move it at will on another scene without A: renaming it and B: without affecting the original scene

plucky oriole
#

when i go to add a new browser it is only giving me half the overlay. what can i do to fix this?

steel bladeBOT
#

@plucky oriole 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

#

Everyone says check "Shutdown source when not visible" but why is this important?

wary dew
#

so it takes up less CPU usage when it's not in use

iron mica
#

So it will work either way, but use less resources if checked? 🙂

wary dew
#

yes

First, type it case sensitive.

shy kestrel
#

the keywords area does not take into account the case

#

if I type in a capital it does not keep it like this, instead opting to put it in lower case

#

I lied.

It's working

Sorry for being such an idiot. Why this community hasen't chewed me up and spat me out is beyond me 😄

Hello, I'm really new to this and been trying for month to setup streaming using OBS, Twitch, stream labs obs and others. I just cant figure out the actual setup for them to work. Or even how they work. I understanding the importing of files and there types to the scenes and sources but when i look at them they go all out of proportion etc. Where can get help with this. I have tried vids etc ad some help from other streamers but i just cant get my head around it. I hope this is the right place to ask.

steel bladeBOT
karmic grove
#

Thank you, i thought i looked at these but maybe i never saw these actual suggestions. Cheers 😄

#

Ok, this might sound like a stupid question. I have Stream labs obs and the stream elements. I also have twitch setup and can stream no problem. But what i am failing to understand is my stream comes from my ps pro or pc. I can get the stream in obs but do i use the stream labs obs to control it or the elements or twitch. When i go offline i just get an image i chose that says off line. This might be better if someone has time to kinda give me a basic overview. for example which programme is the main control, which do i sue to edit the looks and how to i get it all married together so it works like the other streams i watch. They have for example a stream starting soon then they stream and then a closing screen that states that are no longer streaming. all a lot to take in and no matter how many times i try this i end up with loads of different programmes that i can use to stream and nothing changes. is there a streaming for dummies guide that gives eaxact step by step including overlays widgets etc. I know this is probably really easy but i cant get my head around it all.

Can someone help.... I'm streaming right now but my bot wont put any of the timers I've added onto Streamelements??? I have everything on well I think I do

still tangle
#

@karmic grove you have to chose 1 programm you want to use. it doesnt really matter if it is Streamlabs, Obs or something else. Chose whatever you like the most. You can import overlays from pretty much all the other ones later if you want or just use the one the programm offers.

#

@grim cedar please, show us a screenshot of the timer

I think i will stick with stream elements. I did see a woman on a video saying to use overlay manager but i couldnt find it on the web version or the app on the pc. Has this moved within the programme or is it named something else.
