Hello. Is there any way to switch youtube account. My chat always appears under wrong account for some reason. Stream elements logout->login does not help.
@faint needle Streamelements on top of OBS -> Logout -> login
or settings > stream
Anyone else having connection issues with obs not connection with twitch
@sudden salmon Use the Twitch Bandwidth Test to find the best Twitch server to stream to. Set Duration to Medium. You can uncheck any regions you're not near.
After the test completes, click the Share Result button to upload a screenshot, which can then be copied and pasted here.
Get Twitch Test from https://r1ch.net/projects/twitchtest
i need some help i got a new microphone and its working fine but obs is not picking and audio up from it
@rugged quail For the best OBS support, please join their Official Discord @ discord.gg/obsproject
I tried logout-login but no change, the stream is going on well on correct account, but for some reason chat uses different account (I have several channels under one account). At first several streams everything was fine, but then chat starts appearing under wrong account. Even plugin reinstallation does not help. Probably something broken on my side. Anyway thank for the help.
Anyone know how to fix this
preview on OBS.Live bugged out and doesn't show my screen
reseting..
3hrs of content lost, nice.

how can i get a overlay in the stream
@violet forge To add your overlays to OBS, add a new browser source in your scene. Paste your overlay URL in the browser source properties, set the dimensions to 1920x1080 (unless you changed them on the website), and ☑ “Shutdown source when not visible” https://youtu.be/KDvLynUqXI4
Hi everyone! I tried to upload a sound file to streamelements (web site, the overlay editor), but it doesn't work. I've seen on a "common bugs" page that it is far smaller than the limit (it's 130 KB), but it keeps saying "failed while uploading file". An idea?
@royal rampart 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.
ok, I was using firefox, I'll try chrome right now, thanks!
Okay, it worked perfectly, thanks!
My Streamelements bot doesn`t work when I launch the OBS.Live
I tested when I close the OBS the bot works normally
Hi guys. For some reason I can't change my stream title as of the past week or so. Could anyone help?
I'm trying to stream on twitch but it says that I'm trying to stream on YouTube and I made sure the service was twitch and it was please dm me asap
Heya all, I just want to ask a quick question, should I check "Shutdown source when not visible" on Alertbox overlay too?

omg I'm so dumb 😅
I’m just starting to set up, and I’m receiving an “unauthorized token” message in my first ‘alert’ box. I’m following the steps (other than my dimensions are default at 733x617) and I made sure I saved. What am I missing?

Why does my stream keep replaying an old half of my stream and it gets lauder and loder every time
It’s a sound loop that doesn’t end

I don't know who to @ for this so hopefully someone who can help will see it. I have the sub count widget for total twitch subscribers set up, and it shows in my OBS, however the sub count still says Zero. I tried fiddling with thins in the session data section but can't get the sub count to update from zero
Having a problem getting the audio from my display capture to work.
Anyone else getting a problem with OBS where you cannot edit your title or game within obs itself, or get a up to date count of whos in your channel with the usernames?

Hello everyone! I have a problem with my camera input. Everytime i switch a scene its stuck and i have to delete it and make a new one again and resize it etc.
any ideas why?

what should one have for kbps in this internet speed?
okay so im trying to get the layout setup properly on the screen. the photo on the right is how it should look and the photo on the right is how its appearing in obs. Am i doing something wrong?
there's a way to let the start stream button function with a combination of buttons? I wrongly started streaming while I was doin some tests and I didn't noticed (luckily I have notification after 10 minutes on my telegram channel and I wasn't jerking myself) 
I don't think so but if you're worried about it what I would think is every time you end stream enable network bandwidth test mode so if you ever do accidentally go live again, nobody will see it. You'd have to add enabling/disabling it to your normal work flow before and after stream though.
@rancid whale ^
@tranquil dove If you are not hearing your Alerts and/or Media request, you are most likely using the "Control Audio via OBS" option in your browser source properties.
To make sure you hear the alerts and the stream also hears them, follow along the screenshot bellow.

Hello, I am trying to add custom overlays to stream elements. I cant seem to find where you add the custom files to the overlay editor. Not sure if this is the right help desk channel.
how do i add a steam overlay on my OBS

Is there a way to add neon text?
You can use the text shadow section to enter css code.
Like this: 0 0 5px #ff7bac, 0 0 10px #ff7bac, 0 0 20px #ff7bac, 0 0 40px #ff7bac, 0 0 80px #ff7bac, 0 0 90px #ff7bac, 0 0 100px #ff7bac, 0 0 150px #ff7bac;
still makes no sense how do i make it neon
Can you elaborate on the word neon please?
What do you have in mind exactly?
Do you have an example picture?
But nevertheless you would need to use the css propertie to create this effect.
Play around with the CSS in that propertie field, as it is the text-shadow propertie.
maybe like that?
That would require custom coding.
Is it possible to make it so if people donate 1-99 bits, it displays this
And when they donate 100-999
It displays this
Use variations.

Hello, how to block/ban someone from donating
@steel mural thanks for the quick response! Any plans to make it available?
Not at this time. The Mac community is pretty small. Also, the main feature of OBS.Live are the browser panels (activity feed, media request...) and these panels are very buggy in vanilla OBS itself because Apple
@steel mural @hidden vine An part of it requires the docks being available for Mac via OBS naturally and those haven't been added yet due to some stuff outside of OBS's control partly unrelated to apple's shenaniguns.
is this the appropriate channel for help with an overlay
I used https://yoink.streamelements.com/mediarequest
to work with media request - the link does not work now. Worked like this link https://yoink.streamelements.com/activity-feed.
Who knows the correct link?

Hello, how to block/ban someone from donating?
will blocking the user from the tipping history be enough?
Hi for the last month I have been having issues with my notifications/ overlay. Its like it crashes within an hour of my stream. The names don't update the last anything and the notifications don't pop up on the overlay, the only thing that still works is the sound. I have multiple overlays and this seems to be only happening on the webm notifications. My other 2 overlays I am just using gifs and they aren't crashing.
@potent sequoia if you have required login for donating, it will be enough.
good afternoon, i have a problem using the activity feed tab
I'm not able to edit stream title
help me plz =D

@crude lava ^
thys
@fathom cobalt ty i know that part but what i mean sometimes some D**b people will donate and type bad messages, so when that happen i want to ban that user .. will blocking the user from the tipping history actually ban him from donating at all?
hey I was wondering why when I put my overlay into obs live and my webcam and stuff I am unable to resize them
for some reason the red box that allows you to move things around and resize is not appearingn
i have a lagging problem when i play fortnite and stream. me and my gf have our own pc in our place and we get random high ping when one of us streams what would be a good fix? anythign in obs settings? my ping sky rockets to 350 and then back to 20 then to lower whats wrong?
@fallow burrow For the best OBS support, please join their Official Discord @ discord.gg/obsproject
@fallow burrow you wanna set your bitrate low. your internet isn't supporting the additional upload coming from your stream
Why over the last 2 days i have to close down the chat window in Elements OBS has it is not updating who many people are viewing
sure, but that will butcher your stream
Yeah no problem. Faster internet is of course the best, but most expensive solution
yeah cant afford expensive internet rn
in the meantime, streaming at 720 or lowering bitrate will help with ping. @wary dew is right, itll make things look less nice. but there's not a quick easy solution
sure, but you haven't even asked them on what settings they are now
they could already be on 720 with 3500 bitrate

@ember quartz Try relog Streamelements on top of OBS -> Logout -> login
@sharp turret Ummmm bit tricky during streams . but that was last night i will see if the problem is sorted today then when i stream again
so would i be changing base resolution or output to 720?
@fallow burrow only output
base canvas is your pc screen
@ember quartz Okay. If still not show the viewers would go in OBS activity feed settings and disable "Show viewers count" then save and again enable.
@sharp turret Ummmm bit tricky during streams . but that was last night i will see if the problem is sorted today then when i stream again
@ember quartz relogging during stream will have no effect on the stream
at least it shouldn't

Hello, can you help me get the Now Playing widget to work, I specifically want it to display which song is playing from my OBS.live
Having a bit of a strange issue with alerts, I'm in the process of setting them up for the first time and whenever I emulate, it shows this instead of the full box in OBSL. Any ideas?
@half bridge 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
Aha! Thank you so much, that did it!


is there a way to resize the image on an alert? It always wants to appear much bigger than the image actually is

Hi, good day guys...
Anyone that know why my Streamelements bot (and in general) stops working when I open OBS?
@torpid latch 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
obs live wont let me change stream title

Is there a way to manage all accounts using 1 so that way we don't have to create different stuff for each bot/service?
@vocal parcel Unfortunately not with the current design.
@toxic fern bruh... its challenging keeping up with all this crap
im too fucking old. ;O
As long as accounts for the platforms you use are "linked" you can duplicate it between them. It's just the data that won't be consolidated.
yeah... then i have the issues with timers overlapping and all
because my restream chat setup...
been trying to find a better way to manage/watch/see all the chats from all the services that se is supporting.
Not possible atm.
wait is it possible to merge YouTube and Twitch chat into the OBS chat window?
@inner moon no.
You've gotta be kidding me
Twitch can be done but as YouTube's links for chat change per stream you'd need to use restream to combat this.
Ill try it out thx for the info

all good or change it?
YO Stream Elements, when you OBS live for MAC 😛 ( I had created a idea AGES ago ) I know the market for people streaming on MAC is much smaller than PC, but we do exist 🙂 and honestly would be amazing if this would become a thing 🙂
with title i did,now i am interested is all good on specs
@hollow shuttle 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

hey, i just made an overlay in streamlabs! but i have no clue how i put the overlay in my obs... cause i can save the picture but then i wont get recent donation and stuff in screen. can someone help me?

thanks, but i still have a problem. if i get a donation or a new subsriber, i dont get a message of it. i dont get my donos on my screen in the live stream... how can i fix this?

Hey! Not sure if I'm in the right section. I really liked the latest wheelspin widget (that picks that chatternames) is there one that works the same way (dissapears after spin) where I can add static values to be picked from?
I'm not able to import my scenes from Streamlabs OBS, it doesn't say anything just that it failed to import. It does upload all files, but as soon as it starts to import alerts it fails. Any idea of what could be wrong here?
guys I have a strange question.
It's possible give different permissions to the commands in two different scenes?
I need to setup one scene to cast a tourney, and I need to give some viewers privileges to use a bunch of commands, ONLY when this scene is active.
I can give privilege for commands (mod or vip for example) but this will happen on all the scenes, can I have different commands privileges on different scenes? (question rephrased)
It is not possible to make a command that only works on one scene afaik.
will be a great option for casters so

@robust crag there are no plans for OBS.Live for Mac.
Okay I understand thank you @kindred fox
@robust crag It has to do with limited mac development for OBS as a whole. If the OBS community doesn't provide the same level of development, it's difficult to provide a quality integration for it

Hello, i have more and more often the problem that in obs.live the browsersource is not loading. refreshing cache doesnt help. in the middle of the stream suddenly no streamelements browsersources are beeing loaded anymore...
Not sure if this is the correct place, so feel free to correct me.
But is it possible to have a command that changes text on the overlay?

@buoyant magnet Yes, but only with a custom coded widget.
Ah makes sense, thank you
I have a question about NerdorDie.com's "Wicked" Halloween alerts widget. I just contacted NerdorDie yesterday through their discord so they could help add a currency symbol to their donation alert's text. So they went ahead and added it to my already installed alerts package that I have at my Streamelements.com account. However, we were both left wondering if I was not in the US, and I wished to display my donations in Euros or maybe Japanese Yen, for example, would the currency symbol for the donations/tips alert naturally change without me having to do any new coding work from my end?
@buoyant magnet Take a look at this: https://discordapp.com/channels/141203863863558144/457957557470887947/641612552102477825
Thank you!
Here is a snapshot of how "emulating" a donation from my streamelements.com account currently looks in OBS Studio. So everything is looking pretty good!~ But yeah, just curious if this will naturally change over to other currencies with matching currency symbol, decimal points and commas if I set my currency to something else in my donation settings in my streamelements.com account?
If that is a custom alertbox, best to contact the creator.
@odd kraken I did directly ask a NerdorDie developer at their discord, and they re-directed me to ask Streamelements, since they feel that how things are set in my SE account will affect a new currency and syntax being shown or not.
Maybe I can just re-set my currency at my SE account and see if this works or not?
@odd kraken I seem to have figured it out. You can change the currency in the "tip settings" page, but to get the changes to show up, you have to also scroll down to the bottom of the page to click this button to save the changes to your overlays and such.
So these are my results!~ 😄
It's working perfectly with Euros and albeit other currencies that use decimal points to separate dollar amounts from cents.
Also Japanese Yen is okay, but it's not working properly. Japanese yen is not supposed to have any decimal points to express cents separate from dollars as they actually don't really have dollars or cents...just yen in increasing amounts. So they just start using commas when you get to 1,000yen and up. I'm willing to bet other currencies that use commas are also likely to not be working. How can we send this info to the right department at Stream Elements so they can be aware of the issue and hopefully fix it?
I am aware also, that the only way I probably got a decimal point in there, is from the loophole that the emulator allots me. I don't think it would ever show up for real donations in JPY.
Here is another example. The format is better (since we know decimal points are impossible in JPY), but it still needs at comma after "10", to represent this is in the ten thousands of Japanese yen amounts.
@odd kraken Okay, I will send them a message. Thank you!~ 🙂
Hi everyone, I'm trying to use the streamelements overlay editor and I see in the docs that there is an animations dropdown menu but it doesn't appear on my editor, is there a setting I need to change to show the full suite of options in my editor menu?
Some widgets do not have this option.
Oh alright, so it's based on widget

What are you trying to do specifically Seb?
Add overlays to my stream
So basically when i stream if anyone donates i want to see it pop up
Stuff like that
I have them ready but i don't know how to put them into the stream
@loud yarrow The alertbox widget.
@somber bay 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
Thanks!
You know that's a bot right?

Hi! I'm new to using OBS.Live and noticed that when I change the bot to my Twitch username, the bot stops sending messages. Is there another setting that I need to change in order to get this to work correctly?
@slow fiber 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
help!! im new to stream elements and obs and want to use some alerts, when testing the alerts i can only just see them in the corner of the alert box? anyone know how to fix this?
also how do you have it so you can see most recent sub, follow and so on to go into my overlays?
@spice spruce Please ask your question in one helpdesk channel only. A support volunteer or StreamElements staff member will assist you as soon as they are available. Asking in multiple places will only result in confusion, not faster answers. Thank you for your patience.
@reef grail 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

anything I can do to troubleshoot?

it works now
Hey all! Simple question. I'm brand new to OBS and trying to figure it out. I downloaded the Squirtle sound/video from the other channel and lined it up on Streamelements. When I copy the link and paste it to OBS, however, I don't see any video at all. Any ideas on which way to go? I think the audio is going through.
How do I send older log files with the lag out?
the most recent one isnt the one with the lag out
@deep rose 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
@pearl blade 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+)
Am I able to just add the alert? or do I have to design an entire overlay on Stream Elements for it to work?

Hi! I'm currently dealing with an issue with obs live not letting me edit the stream title. i backspace and none of the letters seem to go. I've tried reinstalling it and that doesnt seem to help either.

In the meantime you can set the title using the !settitle command in chat (if enabled in your bot command settings)

@dusty sonnet instead of pasting the URL on your OBS paste that on another tab of chrome

Streamelements obs wont let me access my chat

@vocal parcel Streamelements on top of OBS -> Logout -> login
@dusty sonnet when you are streaming you can pick differents scenes to show differents informations or change the stream content, from a game to a just chatting, then on just chatting scene you can use your chat widget to interact with your audience, for example.

what is the deal with "Do you want to enable Chat Timers?" We noticed .. double.. blah.. I've thought I only have it on twitch, but it literally blasts it across everything multiple times...
@steel blade also overlay still not working
One problem I seem to be having is, when I group things like webcams I'm capturing into a folder, it's not publishing the webcams (sometimes it will work on a cam or two if I click view and unview or delete and create a new one), I have to drag all the cam captures (discord cams I capture individually and had them in a folder)outside any folder or they will not publish. This creates a very long list as I use the same setup for multiple instances.
@vocal parcel where do you see this msg for the chat timers?
Also define not working? you mention first the invalid token for the editor, so that should be fixed now if you relog
@woven magnet delete all camera sources. Add the camera to 1 scene, then right click the source -> copy -> go to the other scenes -> paste as reference
screenshot please
kk
cool, ill try that, thanks!
@shy mountain drop it here or dm?
here
OK.. I just have the settings in SE though.. so i need to figure out why it's detecting it
thats super invasive 
Yep.. Saw it was catching the commands and duplicating them... my bad for naming the same? heh... bug/exploit don't know.. i've stopped using rs bot and just se for now
what would make my stream randomily dissconnect
@craggy fox For the best OBS support, please join their Official Discord @ discord.gg/obsproject
how do i fix stream deley
k ill try
nope that dident work OOf
i already had that to 1 s and its like a 5 min delley
@dusty sonnet For the best OBS support, please join their Official Discord @ discord.gg/obsproject
im already in it and ima ask here case this is a prob with obs live
OBS.Live does not touch the delay option at all
oh well do you know how to fix it case its set to 1 sec and its a reallllllllly long delley
Stream delay can be caused by lower internet upload speeds.
Thats as much as I know.
k well thats not it i ased in the obs chat and noone answered ooooof
Whats your channel name?
Exzachlly
like the obs delley is fine but when i go live if you watch on twich its a long delley
I asked for a different reason.
I can't help much with the stream delay
As I mentioned I only know that its upload speed related
ok well can you help me look stuff up and fix it case it is so annoying
All of the overlays say null
https://www.google.com/search?q=obs+stream+delay @dusty sonnet
its not obs
It's from the stream elements website
@ivory portal show a screenshot
@dusty sonnet I gave you a starting point to research a potential fix.
Thats not how you add the overlays.
@ivory portal To add your overlays to OBS, add a new browser source in your scene. Paste your overlay URL in the browser source properties, set the dimensions to 1920x1080 (unless you changed them on the website), and ☑ “Shutdown source when not visible” https://youtu.be/KDvLynUqXI4

Hey, fairly new to OBS.live and trying to use a streamdeck mobile, the stream deck keeps saying it isnt connected, is there anything I need downloaded to make it work together with obs.live? thanks 🙂
streamdeck mobile? does it support addons?
Yeah, it worked with SLOBS but that breaks my PC so im trying OBS live, the streamdeck mobile uses the regular streamdeck software just rather than usb its over wifi
but for some reason its not like... reading obs live if that makes sense
are you able to install this on your the mobile version?
I did, still didnt work and restarted my pc still same thing saying I need to reinstall stream deck, which I did
What if you remove obs.live and keep obs studio
does streamdeck connect to obs then?
leeme try one sec
Apologies, so when I use the regular OBS ones it gives the reinstall, when I use the OBS live it says: https://gyazo.com/e6e2a9b90b1e2b0e31f62e8f78ca6fd4
Im looking for the obs one so I can switch scenes but thats not the one working, I wasnt able to read hahah
Since this is streamdeck mobile
i'm really not sure where to start troubleshooting this
I'm not familiar how it actually works or how its being setup to try and connect to OBS
do you have the software on your PC?
Yeah
- Open
%appdata%\Elgato\StreamDeck\Plugins - Delete the
com.streamelements.obslive.sdplugin folder
okay
is anyone else's streamelements crashing today???
If a software application is crashing, it is most likely a local environment thing(PC environment) - can you tell us what you are doing so that it crashes?
it will load up then out of nowhere it just starts to glitch out and closes the application
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\crashes and provide the last listed file.

@frigid python 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

I have an overlay as a browser, but I can only edit them through editing the website. How do I take pieces from it without taking all of it
thank you very much ill do that
For example the website does not let me link my discord, or group the items I want. otherwise I would just delete everything else and have multiple browsers
You can duplicate widgets from one overlay to the other
simply click on the widget and then next to "layers" there is a duplicate button
Hi! :)
There's a major problem I have with Media Request and makes this function impossible to use.
I have the Media Request panel as an insertion into a OBS screen. Lately I'm not able to use because the different buttons are being actived with no input. The video start and stops, it jumps from one place to another... And I'm literally doing nothing with my hands.
Would you know why is this happening? 😦
Are you using OBS.Live?
Yes I am! @shy mountain
@ornate wren Streamelements on top of OBS -> Logout -> login
I will test it today, I hope it will be solved!
Anyone know how to get an Avermedia GC573 connected to OBS.live at all?
OBS.Live is just a plugin for OBS Studio
the method you use for OBS Studio should work normally
Hi I can see audio levels in the Audio mixer - desktop audio but It isnt being recorded or streamed. It seams to only work sometimes
My mic seams to be fine
!audiomonitoring
If you are not hearing your Alerts and/or Media request, you are most likely using the "Control Audio via OBS" option in your browser source properties.
To make sure you hear the alerts and the stream also hears them, follow along the screenshot bellow.

Hi , Is NDI source still usable in OBS? it disappeared since last update.... 😦
@tall sinew Download the NDI installer here: https://github.com/Palakis/obs-ndi/releases/tag/4.8.0. If you're not seeing "obs-ndi" folder in C:\Program Files\obs-studio\data\obs-plugins, download the archive and extract and paste both folders (data and obs-plugins) into C:\Program Files\obs-studio.
worked thanks Bot 🙂

Hello all. I was trying to enable Kappagen on my overlays. unfortunately I seem to be unable to get the source to work correctly in a preview browswer or as a browser source in OBS.Live. Any suggestions?

We have two monitors. One for gaming and one for chat/twitch/discord. Fortnite is the only game while in game that we are able to freely move the mouse between both game and to chat on the other monitor. Valorant and Warzone we cannot do that unless we minimize the game screen in order to get to chat. Any one know a fix for this?
@fringe patrol have you tried playing those game is fullscreen windowed mode or fullscreen borderless?
@cobalt shard Fortnite is full screen. I have tried Warzone in windowed mode but didn’t let me switch to chat on other monitor with out minimizing game
Any updates from the Dev team on the stream title bug with the OBS.Live plugin? 😀
So i tried to import my scenes from Streamlabs OBS...and right when it gets to the end it fails EVERY TIME....
Anyone know why..??
Is there a way to test alerts in OBS.Live? i just had a follower, and my follow alert was cutted half, so i wanted to test it :/
In the overlay editor you can emulate the alerts and there is a box to have them show in OBS
thanks
Hello !, uhm, is there any way to change the activity feed to the ground control interface? (i had it in my obslive before, but its not showing up)
StreamElements menu in the top bar > Activity feed
😢
@cunning zodiac can you click logout in that menu and log back in with whatever platform you’re streaming to (assuming twitch?)
@kindred fox thank you so much, lol im dumb, that was it!!, i reconnected (trying if could have worked) in the obs config, not the streamelements, thanks ❤️
Woot!
What you exactly need?
I got a new overlay pack and its all files idk how to edit etc
where did you get it from?
Own3d
they usually provide a one-click-setup file as well
that will import everything into the editor
Can we get into a call bc im really lost
I can't at the moment
Is there a way to fix this?
import can fail when:
- there are copyrighted assets from Streamlabs in the scenes
- unsupported media files
- media files being bigger then 100MB
do i just have to rebuild every thing in streamelements?
Hey, got a Problem. Since 2 days, i can't change my stream title / game in the activity feed, if i try to type something in the field it just jumps to the end and i can't delete text or write something there, i can change the game, but if i click save it doesn't change it... reinstalled it which didn't work and tried logging out an in.

If i already had all my scenes and other stuff in obs before i installed obslive how would i turn them in to one weblink i can have as scene?
By setting it up in an overlay on our site.
I have an issue with obs.live overnight, the dashboard (twitch info) disappeared, I used to change the missing titles and I cannot return it to someone who can help me.
@halcyon dragon If you are not seeing the OBS Twitch integrations and have OBS.Live installed, please follow these steps:

- start OBS.Live
- Settings -> Stream -> disconnect -> connect

@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
Got an issue with OBS.live When I try to change the Stream title using the activity feed window It won't change and sends my cursor to the end of the previous title.
@jovial ruin 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
k thanks

I am trying to go from Streamlabs toi Stream Elements. I have widgets setup with SL and also commands and timers with nightbot. How can I get everything through SE? I've tried doing imports without ant success.
You need to have both dashboards open in order to use the importers
Hello. I am having an issue where one of my StreamElements panels are appearing on different displays than the one I have them moved to. No matter what I do, I can't seem to get it to go back to normal where OBS.live launches with them in the last place I put them. The chat panel respects it, the activity feed panel doesnt. It always defaults to opening on my main display on app launch instead of the secondary display
Can you show a screenshot of the issue. Im having a bit of a hard time understanding it 
I tested something - if i place the docks outside of the bounds of my monitors and restart OBS, they popup where they were, but not hidden. This basically
What I think is happening here is, OBS is not really seeing the actual size of that particular monitor or is treating it as out of bounds for some reason. Maybe even a pixel off screen can cause that.
Hm, interesting, seems you are right. I retested and shrunk the windows and the issue no longer happens
thanks
Hello. My recent followers and Subscribers aren't working . Can anyone here help me out?

how do you add overlays from streamelements
@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

i add my overlay in OBS but it doesn´t pull up, its just a black screen, what can i do?
Have you added it with 1920x1080 resolution?
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
yes Benno
@mild shoal OBS -> settings -> advanced -> scroll down -> enable/disable hardware accel. (This does not apply for OBS on Mac)
https://i.imgur.com/ggMe9ZE.png
oh thanks, that was the problem! Now it works
Any one knows why i need to set up my camera every time i turn off the pc? I do "apply" and after "ok".
set up is like change color setting and zoom
Yes

possible to change res/aspect in the editor for a theme?
seems to me the theme I'm using is 1920x1080 by default and I'm using 1920x1200
@unkempt stream click ... (3 dots) in overlay window and change to custom size in properties
!res

That being said, if you want a custom overlay size, you can follow the above instructions, but afterwards you need to edit the overlay's assets
to match the new size
For some reason the overlay I'm working on no longer saves.. the variations won't update and when I try to save the overlay it doesn't show that it is saving or has saved and in OBS.Live I don't see the updated version either so it really didn't save.. can/should I just restart the browser without losing progress?
restart your browser and obs.live
Yep, that did the trick, lost a little progress but what is a few minutes compared to never getting it to work, thanks!

HI
i have a problem with the obs.live integration. Obs fully crashed and the all streamelements windows that are popped out (like chat) are invincible. after a minute it crashed.
Yesterday i had a windows update.
can anybody help?
soo suddenly my obs started crashing.. if i remove stream elements it works fine.. when i reinstall it back crashes again
who should i talk to for this issue
So, i decided i wanted to switch streaming platforms from youtube to twitch. i connected my twitch account on obs but when i click on "Start streaming" it says that i need to put a title for my stream on youtube
i think i have the same problem like @prime thistle
yup experiencing the same thing @jovial topaz is encountering..
@prime thistle obs.live fully crashed your obs right?
or you have invincible windows etc?
invincible windows + crash
hi i need help with my follower goal i have it on my overlays and its not working like its showing but it says i have 43 followers when i got 9
?????
@dusty sonnet 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
So I just bought the Stream Deck Mobile and went to connect with my obs.live but when I got to my tools menu, I no longer have a place to connect with. The option is just gone.
@jovial topaz did a full reinstall of obs and streamelemnts still the same
@prime thistle kk me too
@prime thistle i think we need a supporting dude for that. :/
Hi, I'm having trouble importing my things from Streamlabs to Stream elements. Also, my nightbot timers and commands have not been imported. HELP!
@floral wadi reinstall streamdeck software/plug-in
@kindred fox I have unistalled OBS.live, obs studio, and stream deck software. Then gone and reinstalled them all and made sure they were all up to date... still nothing.
@prime thistle would you try a windows rollback?
How do i make it to were my follower goal gose down when someone unfollows me
@jovial topaz i didnt have a windows update tbh

????
How do i make it to were my follower goal gose down when someone unfollows me overlay
Pls stop spamming
sorry
i did it so people would see my msg
ill stop
can you help me please
???
@dusty sonnet there's this fun new website called youtube. If someone in here can't help you right away, just wait and see if you can find someone on youtube who can run you through it.
@dusty sonnet what are you running your follower goal through?
what do you mean
Have you made your follower goal on the streamelements website in the overlay creator using the widget?
i think
want to join a call so i can share my screen so you can see what im using or idk how to take screenshot
When will OBSLive be available on macOS, or at least the beta?
@dusty sonnet it's not instant.
imagine 2173219032190 streamers, instantly polling all information, every second
You're not the only one on a platform, needing (read: being served) data.
If you really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really want to update it, do it manually with a cache refresh.
@tender python I just walked @dusty sonnet through an entire tutorial in how to do it manually in a screen share. All good.
@floral wadi perfect.
Unfortunately no one has been able to help with my problem yet.
Which is ?
So I just bought the Stream Deck Mobile and went to connect with my obs.live but when I got to my tools menu, I no longer have a place to connect with. The option is just gone.
@floral wadi
I posted it earlier with a picture
Hi everyone, I am wondering if I could get some help in regards to the black screen game capture in obs.live. I am trying to stream my xbox one to my windows 10 laptop. I can play everything with no issues but the screen always shows black no matter what I do. I was able to do display capture where it shows a box in a box in a box in a box lol. Can't get game capture to work.

Can anyone help me please. I put the overlay and i see a black screen i can´t see the overlay
Does anyone know if your base (canvas) resolutions alters the quality of your livestream? Although I have a 1440p monitor, I haven't changed my base canvas resolution from 1080p since that would mean I would have to resize all my overlays too
But I'm curious if increasing it to my actual resolution would increase video quality
Tried to install OBS.Live yesterday to look into some of the features etc... in doing so my streamlabs emote wall is not working now, my stream elements chat bot isnt working anymore, it messed up alot... and i dont know what to do to fix it? i wouldnt mind converting over fully to stream elements but i dont really know what to do, only been streaming 2 months. any help appreciated, thank you!!
After several months of using the OBS.Live program just fine, it has suddenly decided that it will no longer update correctly; the stream title won't change within the app (if I try to type in the Activity feed's Stream Title field it immediately goes to the end of the line without adding any characters) and hitting save in the Activity Feed does nothing, while trying to leave the Stream Settings window in Activity Feed asks if I want to save changes every time (even though nothing happens).

Or with the Twitch dashboard: https://dashboard.twitch.tv/stream-manager
So I'm not actually sure which channel to post this question in. I have a handful of custom widgets I want to make into an overlay, but streamelements editor is being weird about resizing them (they were all made separately and copied into a single overlay). I can resize the box, but it doesn't resize the contents like it would if I created a new widget in that overlay. Is there an easier way to do this other than to just import them individually into OBS?

Hey! so my media request is doubling audio for some reason?
only when I show the video on stream. why is that?
otherwise its fine
you probably have it on several overlays so it plays from background too

Hi all - I've just joined Stream Elements and I'm moving from Streamlabs - I've done an import on my alerts, but was trying to add new webm files and but when I do the drop to upload it says my file isnt compatible... the same happens when I just search the folders for the same files... any ideas?

Did you add the Media Request Widget to your Overlay?
yes @dry sphinx
In OBS.Live for Media Request: Do you have Show on Stream enabled?
In OBS.Live for Media Request: Do you have Show on Stream enabled?
@dry sphinx yes
even when i enable show on stream, it still has no audio
Enabling "Show on stream" makes the audio come from the browser source. You need to check the browser source properties and your audio settings to ensure whatever device it's playing through is being captured by OBS.
No. Please reread my message.

Hi all,
I’m having audio trouble. Just upgraded to dual pc from single pc and trying to link everything. I’ve watched all of Harris’ goxlr videos trying to sync OBS on the stream pc with the gaming pc goxlr. I have the line in and outs correct. It’s just not showing up on my devices in the Audio tab of Mix/Auxiliary Audio In OBS. No motherboard, no Line in, just shows “disabled” and “Device not connected or available.” Any ideas?
We cannot assist with audio mixer setups.
@golden delta make sure that you added the 1 space before the --remote
@honest echo
I added the space and I get the same result. I am not sure if this matters, but I have 2 drives in my PC, my OS runs off one drive, and all my programs/storage is on another drive.
Alright I was just making sure I'm transitioning from StreamLabs OBS to OBS Live and I wanted to make sure. I've seen and heard good things, keep it up.

Hello! I’m using OBS.live and I’m having issues with my alert overlay. I purchased my alert from Visuals By Impulse and it is extremely choppy / laggy when an alert triggers. Every other aspect of my overlays work fine and I don’t see any huge cpu usage, so I’m kind of stumped as to why it’s happening

How do you reset goals like donations, subs, followers, etc?
@obsidian cradle 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
so does the end date for a goal actual matter? does it stop the goal when the date has passed?
If you don't want an end date, just erase it from the field.
But no, it doesn't affect it.
ok so if you had a tip goal for $100 and never reset it, it will keep counting all tips to that goal?
Yes. And keep counting over it.

I mis spoke, im using obs LIVE, not obs. This is where I've received help before.
OBS.Live is a plugin for OBS Studio, not its own software. Audio settings and setup is still handled by OBS Studio.
You'll be better served asking in there.
okay thanks.
chat box widget is not working. it is showing on the site itself but it is not relaying to my obs
When changing the bot name to myself my commands do not work and need to know how to fix it. When switching back to Stream Elements commands work but not if it is my name.
@idle barn Streamelements on top of OBS -> Logout -> login
@idle barn 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
When changing my Stream Title in the activity feed, it stays the same when I try to type in it.
its pretty frustrating

Hey does anyone have issues with host notifications not going up?
Doesn’t pop on my activity feed either
I’m sorry host alert us what I meant
@mint kite 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.
hello, im trying to add sound effects to my stream, I made one on my store redemptions but I cannot seem to get the command to work. I have added the store redemptions to my overlay but nothing shows up when i put the bot command in
nevermind i got it to work
I was streaming recently without any issue and; after a few hours, the LOGI G Hub crashed and, with them, the OBS... know someone why that?
Reinstall the logitec software
and see if it happens again
if it does -> discord.gg/obsproject
sorry, I didn't specified, was the OBS.Live
I will reinstall the LOGI software

if I have an Alerts Overlay Setup under my Twitch account i.e. new followers, how do I get my youtube and facebook followers to show as well? do i copy the alerts to their respective accounts under my se dashboard? also, how would it work in my obs. do i have to have 3 browser controls running all the same time?
any fix for fixing your stream elements chat bot after a twitch username change?
any fix for fixing your stream elements chat bot after a twitch username change?
@signal oar set the bot as "StreamElements" again and then "custom name" (and write your current username)
(that worked for my some weeks ago)
@vocal parcel you’d need to add an overlay for each platform with the respective labels as all platform APIs are independent
@oblique rivet that worked after you changed your twitch username?
@kindred fox ugh.. so that's a yes in my obs.live as well.. i.e. 3 alert browser controls running at same time so that way each service will get displayed?
Got it! thank you!
I used to run an emote wall off of streamlabs, it was fine, however i cannot figure out why mine isnt working, or showing up with streamelements? suggestions?
@signal oar yes 
@oblique rivet however, now when i open OBS.live back up, the chatbot no longer works...
@vocal parcel yep. You can “try” to copy the labels to a single overlay but I have zero guarantee it will work
I believe in the overlay editor you can duplicate a layer to a different overlay, which you can try but I don’t believe it works right
@signal oar in the SE website dashboard click the button to part the bot and then join the bot to your channel
Also make sure you sign out of the website and back in before doing the bot stuff
