#

So the difference is in a way minimal

#

but there isn't much of a performance hit IF those browser sources are just not active

#

or not doing anything

#

they just idle there

round igloo
#

Shutdown source when not visible and I should be good I guess

shy mountain
#

yes

#

well depending on the use case

#

but yes

round igloo
#

what would be the use case where that isn't recommended/needed?

shy mountain
#

At first I have the overlay loaded as a reference between the scenes
Then I show you that I add it as an individual browser source with the shutdown when source is inactive where the alert gets cut off if i'm switcing scenes

round igloo
#

Oh yeah I've noticed that, I have a fade luma wipe and I thought about creating an actual stinger to get around that issue

#

So I guess that's the only reason?

shy mountain
#

What if you have a 30 second duration alert and you want to switch between scenes?

#

will you leave the alert to be cut in the beggining/middle/end?

#

But in general, shut down when not visible should be used for example on the browser source that you usually are not going to use for most of the part

#

like the ending/starting overlay

round igloo
#

Gotcha, but then again alerts don't really use CPU unless they're active so I guess this saves RAM as it shuts down overlays that would usually be preloaded in RAM or am I wrong?

shy mountain
#

you are correct

round igloo
#

Alright cool, thanks!

hi, I have a question about the media share plugin in OBS, it keeps saying media is not available in my country. Youtube works fine on my browser for said video.

humble lion
#

week two that streamelements obs has let me down, trying to start streaming and it pops up with "failed to connect to server" ive reset the stream key and no joy

@turbid knoll A crash log is required to investigate the cause of your issue. Please upload the last crash log.

  1. In OBS, click the Help menu
  2. Select Crash Reports and then Upload Last Crash Report
  3. Copy the URL and paste it to the chat here.

Note: 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.

#

Hi, i have a overlay file ready to stream, how can i do it on streamelements?

steel bladeBOT
#

@mild pasture The delay of your overlays showing is due to your pc re-downloading the overlay when changing scenes.

The best option is to use a stinger transition to hide the loading.

Your other option would be to stop your overlay from closing,
In OBS, right click on the overlay > Properties > untick Shutdown source
https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/712428275049431120/738361175280189489/unknown.png

Note: This may cause issues so it would also be advised to separate your overlays into things that are safe to keep open (overlay images) and things to be shut down (alert boxes).

solar shale
#

how do i add my spotify onto the overlay im using?

pallid parrot
#

MB. Wrong link.

#

@mild pasture so basically you need to copy URL of overlay (not the editor - use πŸ“Ž icon in top right corner of overlay editor, or "preview" button in overlays list to get that URL). Then add them as Browser Sources into OBS with 1920x1080 dimensions (OBS defaults to 800x600)

#

Greetings!! I have a problem with streamelement overlays in streamlabs. I see the overlays cut off. I would appreciate any help given.

steel bladeBOT
#

@late token 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 check Shutdown source when not visible. https://youtu.be/KDvLynUqXI4

sharp turret
#

Set dimensions to 1920x1080

#

ok i'll try

vestal sail
#

Does anyone know why updating information in the Stream Information dock just doesnt work sometimes? I have to confirm my changes 10 times before it actually changes them on Twitch.

late token
#

thanksss!

steel bladeBOT
#

@vestal sail 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

@thorny current I have the same. can anyone help us out ? I can not uninstall it either..

cunning grotto
#

Hey all -- having issues with Hosts triggering my alerts, everything else is working as expected and StreamElements doesn't even recognize the host in the Activity Feed, any suggestions or pointers here? πŸ™‚ Thanks in advance! ❀️

steel bladeBOT
#

@cunning grotto 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.

cunning grotto
#

So essentially - its just something that has to be updated, and in the meantime just hang tight? πŸ™‚ Thank you!

sharp turret
#

@cunning grotto 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.

#

Sorry wrong command Imao. I don't find it so just copied

cunning grotto
#

Hmm -- so channels with at least 1 viewer, does this include the channel itself as a viewer? I see them hosting with +1 viewer by other means, but still it will not trigger?

#

and its ok, thank you for the followup Daniii_!!

sharp turret
#

@cunning grotto You mean the streamer? To count as viewer?

cunning grotto
#

Yes, exactly that πŸ˜‰

sharp turret
#

I am not sure on that if streamer counted as viewer.

marble bolt
#

hello, i just started with obslive like 2 nights ago

#

My game capture only displays Overwatch on my streaming overlay...

cunning grotto
#

I'll mess with it some more - thank you @sharp turret

sharp turret
#

@marble bolt What you mean? Can you screenshot?

marble bolt
#

I'll try and describe in detail first cuz im not sure how to show in screenshots. So, I set everything up and i've done like 4 streams of overwatch to set my audio levels. I originally joined this server yesterday to ask for audio help but I figured it out. I have my game capture set to "any fullscreen application" and even when I opened my new game (Genshin Impact) and selected it under "Specific Window" it does not show on my overlay. However, when I run Overwatch and minimize it, it remains in my streaming overlay preview as intended. I am about to test with The Sims to see if it's a Genshin thing but I feel like its OBS

#

Every other aspect (like the hotkeys etc) is working fine and I've been using the program all morning I don't know why it's not showing the game

cunning grotto
#

Is it possible Genshin is set to windowed or a diff screen resolution and "fullscreen" specifically means fullscreen for game setting to be captured?

marble bolt
#

I will check that now, that thought did occur to me, but it automatically fills/covers the whole screen when you launch it just like Sims

cunning grotto
#

It looks like you need to use Window Capture for Genshin Impact -- recomended settings appear to be "WIndow Mode" so setting it to Fullscreen --might-- help, however Window Capture should pick the game up for you πŸ™‚

marble bolt
#

Sims isn't working either even though it's set to fullscreen

steel bladeBOT
cunning grotto
#

☝️ ☝️ ☝️

#

It def sounds like an OBS issue, and the various capture methods -- if trial and error with Game / Display and Window capture doesn't work I also suggest the OBS Community πŸ™‚

#

This doesn't sound like an SE issue, good luck friend!

marble bolt
#

thanks!

sharp turret
#

Try ask in OBS server πŸ™‚

HI! So i'm having an issue with some alerts, but VERY RANDOM ONES. I do have variants set, and other alerts similar will work. (ex. i have one for bits at least 100) all users that gave 100+ got the alert, one person sent a random amount over 100 & no alert. i've even tried to make their exact bit amount an alert, resend the alert & does not work. If i test that same amount on the editor through the "emulate" it will work. I had the same issue with a resub, all my resubs were working except for one person that resubbed for 10 months, same issue was occurring with the testing/creating an exact variant.

marble bolt
#

@sharp turret on the community server i found out about the log analyzer and then i found out i didnt have obs running as admin that fixed the problem!

#

Thanks again for listening

This is literally my first time using Discord, so please excuse any confusion on my part. Haha. I'm having a problem with my overlays. They were working fine until I switched my OBS from Twitch to Restream. I changed my mind and switched back, and now my overlays aren't showing up. When I try to open them in the overlay editor, it just says, "Uh-oh... Invalid authorization token." Any thoughts?

Could anyone here help me resolve an issue with my alerts? I have my overlay in OBS as a browser source with the address I copied from my StreamElements overlay editor.

Can a mod please help me with my question I asked yesterday? I switched my twitch name but it's failing to act as if I'm the account owner both on obs and the streamelements website. It still only shows my old name as the owner under user management.

steel bladeBOT
#

@vivid slate If you changed your name on Twitch, please follow these steps:

  1. Visit https://streamelements.com/logout and then log in again by connecting with Twitch.
  2. 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.
  3. Post your old and your new name here so that we can update your channel's chatstats tracking (must be done by staff).

#

@hardy gull 1) Right click on your OBS desktop shortcut and open the Properties
2) In the Target field, add the following to the very end: --remote-debugging-port=40404
3) Open OBS (or restart if it was open)
4) Open your web browser and type in: localhost:40404
5) Click on StreamElements - Activity feed
6) Navigate to the Console tab
7) Type the following into the console and hit enter: store.customBot.removeCustomBotIntegration()
8) Try setting the custom bot name
9) Remove the additional flag in step 2 from your shortcut properties.

How do you activate certain overlays when you're streaming

#

Like the we'll be right back, end of stream, and starting stream

steel bladeBOT
#

@honest bone 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 check Shutdown source when not visible. https://youtu.be/KDvLynUqXI4

Can i im port overlays to Streamlabs OBS?

steel bladeBOT
#

@broken jacinth 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.

#

Hello! I have a question about the "Roll Credits" widget. Once I've formatted it to my likin I add the browser link and everything is fine. Once I switch to the scene that has the browser active however it doesn show the updated followers, bits etc. the only way it shows is if I completely delete the source and re-enter it. Is this common?

steel bladeBOT
#

@somber schooner Right click on the BrowserSource > Properties > Scroll down a bit > Refresh cache of current page

somber schooner
#

@steel blade Thank you, will I have to select that every time?

#

@steel blade Will I have to refresh the cache every time I use Credit Roll Browser?

@somber schooner or check Shutdown source when not visible on the browser sources properties

#

hello i have a question. I just received my laptop back from the repair shop. i had to redownload obs. is there something that has changed with the updated version because before i sent it out with the old software i was able to play and listen to the music that was playing. now i don't have the option to do that. i still have the media player but it doesn't play in the stream and the setup in the audio mixer is different now then it was before i sent the computer out. just want to know if there is something that i needed to do or turn on. thank you

shy mountain
#

You most likely have OBS v26 which I believe messes with some audio stuff from the previous version

#

It might be best to uninstall only OBS Studio and use the OBS>Live installer to get obs v25.0.8

#

as we have not updated the plugin for 26 yet

pliant plank
#

i have version 20.6.24.635

shy mountain
#

thats obs.live version

#

the obs studio version can be seen on the top left

pliant plank
#

haha ya i see it. this is what it updated to. so when it asks if i want to update to the newer version click no

shy mountain
#

yes

@earnest falcon 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

Can anyone tell me how to get rid of old channels attached to my acct. I have an old Mixer, YouTube, and Facebook attached that I want to remove.

steel bladeBOT
#

@regal marlin 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, all linked channels within the account will be deleted and you will lose all associated data. This includes overlays, custom commands, timers and past data (tips, subs, etc). You can still reconnect with the deleted account, but you are essentially starting fresh.

#

is obs.live 64bits or 32bits?

shy mountain
#

64bit

terse shoal
#

why when I install obs.live it was install to C:\Program Files (x86)

shy mountain
#

Go to \obs-studio\bin

#

do you see a 32bit folder or a 64bit folder?

terse shoal
#

both

shy mountain
#

If you got into the 64bit folder

#

and run the exe there

#

will it run?

#

if yes, then you are using the 64bit version of OBS

terse shoal
#

yes but why is it install to x86 folder ?

shy mountain
#

Did you install OBS Studio on its own and then our plugin?

terse shoal
#

I download obs.live and installed

shy mountain
#

Then you are given both the 32bit version and the 64bit version

#

just check your desktop shortcut which version you are using

terse shoal
#

64bits. @shy mountain thanks but it cause any problems in the future ?

shy mountain
#

I dont understand the question

#

nvm. thanks for the advise thou

#

does OBS.LIVE have problems with Voicemeeter as I have distord sound when using.

Just note that OBS.Live is a PLUGIN for OBS Studio

OBS.Live is not updated for OBS V26

Hey there, I joined this discord to get help since I have no clue what to do about a problem I have. I've googled all over and messed around with a bunch of settings and I don't feel like I'm having any luck finding a real solution. The gifs in my alerts aren't properly displaying when an alert is triggered by something as simple as a follow. It only shows a small sliver of the gif, but plays all the audio just fine. Any clue why this could be? I've also tried deleting the source and adding a new one, and that didn't help.

Do you see the sub in the twitch activity feed in your twitch dashboard?

After that the next sub should show, if it was shared, when it need to be shared.

#

by activity feed u mean the twitch chat?

#

i wnet to creator dashboard and yes i see the sub there

Good day all, I am experiencing an issue where Stream Deck does not show in the tools drop down menu. I am running OBS 26.0.0 and just uninstalled and reinstalled Elgato Stream Deck.

steel mural
#

Because not everyone knows the solution to every problem. Also, we blue guys are volunteers so we do it in our spare time

#

how what?

regal marlin
#

@rugged quail In order to place your gameplay on your screen without covering your other sources is to move your game video source to the bottom of the list. The higher it is on the sources list, the further forward the item is placed.

steel mural
#

The background is black so I suspect that there's no game being recorded anyway

#

For you question, OBS.Live doesn't support v26 yet

regal marlin
#

@rugged quail You are more than welcome.

#

@foggy tendon Have you gone to bttv to check that they offer a plugin for StreamElements?

foggy tendon
#

i think so i got the extension

#

is there anyway i can toggle

@regal marlin there is no plugin. SE supports BTTV emotes for your chat overlay. But that still is NOT related to OBS.Live. If you have problems with overlays, use on of the platform helpdesks. @foggy tendon
Also, do not cross-post issues

regal marlin
#

@steel mural Ok. I know with a lot of those items outside of SE require a plugin of some sort.

#

Also, @steel mural Would you know why SE isn't showing Stream Deck under Tools drop down menu?

steel mural
#

Not really. You can try to reinstall the StreamDeck software. That fixed a lot of issues with it.

regal marlin
#

I have already done that. I was reading on Elgato that if it didn't show, that I would have to uninstall and reinstall stream deck which is the steps I have already taken.

steel mural
#

Then there's not much you can do. OBS.Live is a plugin for OBS Studio. You can try to uninstall OBS.Live, then uninstall OBS Studio. Reinstall OBS Studio and see of it loads. You can also go to Help -> Log Files -> View current log and check if the StreamDeck files gets loaded. I don't have a streamdeck but the .dll file should be in this list:

@sharp turret I saw that but that’s not my problem. I have a custom made pumpkin transition and I don’t have an option to add the transition to obs. Those are the standard transition.

languid fog
#

i feel like the help i got today was not the right guidance to solve my issue'

raw onyx
#

whats your issue @languid fog

languid fog
#

my issues is that i sat up a new alertbox today , and when people sub streamelements fails to register it, gifted subs tips follows works but normal subs doesnt

#

ive done this many time before without any issues

#

i also deleted the alert box and made a new one

raw onyx
#

Im not sure but have made sure the sub was checked in the alert box settings?

languid fog
#

yes of course

#

and i can emulate sub just fine

#

streamlabs here i come unless somone can solve this for me, i dont like streamlabs at all

#

to simple

wary dew
#

I already showed you with the share function

#

and you said you didn't see that anywhere

#

but i get it everytime on every channel i sub to

#

If a sub is not showing on the activity feed, it's because we didn't get the data from Twitch

languid fog
#

i can share my screen if u like

#

and sub so u see there are no applet

#

ive seen that aplet a thousand times yes

#

but now its not here

#

my account is just unbanned since 14 months so maybe that is the reason?

#

was unbanned 3 days ago

#

maybe i need to update my affiliate information ?

#

but i have subved for the first time many places without geting the aplet

#

but why does giftsubs shows in streamelements activity feed and subs doesnt=

#

i will use obs normal and see if it helps

@foggy tendon Promoting a product from another company isn't the nicest thing to do

foggy tendon
#

the option for custom emotes in my over seems to literally just not exist although there is an options for kappagen

#

im not promoting

steel mural
#

The chat widget should show them without changing anything

#

Or do you have an issue with the actual chat on OBS?

foggy tendon
#

The overlay

#

ill send a ss one sec

#

also i apologies for being dramatic i was just pissed that it wouldnt work

hollow flint
#

hi, i have been having an encoder overload recently, and I was directed here by your twitter account regarding some diags? how should i begin please?

steel bladeBOT
#

@hollow flint 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+.

hollow flint
#

can i do this within bandwidth test mode or must I actually go live/record live?

steel mural
#

"as best you can"

#

So an actual stream would be the best

hollow flint
#

ok tyvm

foggy tendon
#

okay so heres my issue i have my twitch acc linked to bttv right and i want to my bttv emotes to show up on my overlay in obs.live when i stream

#

although my emotes show up my twitch chat box they do not show up in obs.live

steel mural
#

Do they show up in the overlay editor?

foggy tendon
#

no

#

let me try one more time and ill let u knowa

steel mural
#

It could also be that they just need a bit to start working. Did you just add them or does it also happen with native emotes like "SourPls", "monkaS", "GabeN" etc.

foggy tendon
#

with naitive emotes

steel mural
#

I've asked internally because I don't know anymore FeelsBadMan

foggy tendon
#

okay so i fixed it

#

im not sure what did it just cleared my chat and moved it to the other side but it works

steel mural
#

So it's now working as intended?

foggy tendon
#

except for some emotes but mostly yes

#

i think its a bttv problem not a obs.live so ill look into more later thanks for the help

steel mural
#

Yeah when it isn't showing in the overlay editor either, it literally can't be an OBS.Live problem since OBS.Live is just a plugin for OBS Studio

@wooden lance If you changed your name on Twitch, please follow these steps:

  1. Visit https://streamelements.com/logout and then log in again by connecting with Twitch.
  2. 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.
  3. Post your old and your new name here so that we can update your channel's chatstats tracking (must be done by staff).

@jovial fern about the league client

To best capture League of Legends, create two scenes.
In the first scene, add a Window Capture of the LoL launcher/lobby (Windows 7 users should make sure Aero is enabled.).
In the second scene, add a Game Capture of the game itself (you may need to be in a game to add this for the first time).
Then configure the Scene Switcher to automatically swap between them.

I want to mute Discord chat from the stream but still hear it in my headset. why cant i sort this out.

It's really up to your setup. You need to have audio separation for the apps you use, depending on if you stream with 1pc or 2pcs
but you'll need to do the research

@exotic cliff 1) Right click on your OBS desktop shortcut and open the Properties
2) In the Target field, add the following to the very end: --remote-debugging-port=40404
3) Open OBS (or restart if it was open)
4) Open your web browser and type in: localhost:40404
5) Click on StreamElements - Activity feed
6) Navigate to the Console tab
7) Type the following into the console and hit enter: store.customBot.removeCustomBotIntegration()
8) Try setting the custom bot name
9) Remove the additional flag in step 2 from your shortcut properties.

Hi guys, I can not open my streamelements overlays via browser. The website just not loading... So I can not edit or add another overlays.. I also tried with another browser. Sorry for my bad english I tried my best to explain myself. I hope you can help me.. Have a nice day!

so every time i set a goal on my overlay like a follower goal a sub goal or a tip goal it never starts at 0 it starts with my total so say i want to set a new tip goal of $100 i cant cuz it sez i have X total tips witch is how many tip i have ever gotten

#

how do i geat any of my goals to start at 0

steel bladeBOT
#

@lavish roost 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 lose followers/subs.

Good morning everyone... I am adding a StreamElement theme to my OBS Studio, but I can't get it to look at all like the theme I see in preview on the website...

#

Like for example, the end/begin stream is only showing the "Twitter and Facebook link" but not the full screen.. (and how do you change the links?)

pallid parrot
#

@elfin nimbus Make sure you added your browser source as 1920x1080 dimensions (OBS defaults to 800x600)

elfin nimbus
#

Ok, I tried that... switched it to 1920x1080 instead of 800x600... I only see the top part of "Starting" on stream....

rugged quail
#

is there a way to moderate messages in obs? I had a bad message the other day and i dont know how to delete it from the streamelements obs live, i had to go directly on twitch to delete the message?

pallid parrot
#

If you have your chat, just change view to mod view, so you will be enable to delete messages/timeout users via mouse. You can also type /timeout user 1

rugged quail
#

okie i will try

#

thers no mod icon for me 😦

#

and when i hover over messages in chat nothing happens so doesnt allow me to delete messages from the stream chat on streamelements obs

#

it did it wooooo!!!

#

thankyou!!

elfin nimbus
#

Ok, I got the "Starting Soon" image set to 1920x1080 with the links removed I don't need.. still cut off at the bottom:

steel mural
#

Because your canvas isn't 1920x1080. That means that your stream will have black bars on the sides. In OBS go to Settings -> Video and set the canvas size to 1920x1080

elfin nimbus

Got it! Ill likely be back with a different question soon after I mess with the screens more

I recently had my first donation event and the alert didn't show on stream when it occurred. The individual used the "!donate" command in chat and I only found out after stream via my linked e-mail address. I received no notification in the event panel or in-stream alert. My SE account is setup to display an alert and works when i emulate the event. I have removed and re-added the alert, reloaded the SE browser source link to OBS Live, ensured my SE tipping panel is setup properly, and ensured updates are all current.

Is there something I am missing that will fix this issue? Thank you!

@old grove have you tried to resize the box that they are located in?

@elfin nimbus to add a camera, go to sources, click the plus and go to video capture. Once there, you should be able to choose which camera/software you want to use as long as it is compatible with SE.

#

@spice bramble there are a couple different programs that are running with obs.live, and you need to make sure you uninstall them all. If one doesn’t uninstall, go to the other and try that. I haven’t had to do this in a while so I can’t remember the order.

@magic walrus 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 check Shutdown source when not visible. https://youtu.be/KDvLynUqXI4

2nd time asking: Update/new install isn't working for me. I verified the files are present where they should be. No luck. I try to uninstall and it won't because install wasn't successful. Is there a list somewhere of files I can manually remove so I can possibly install a fresh copy of OBS.Live?

tulip hamlet
#

OBS.Live is not yet updated to support OBS 26.
OBS.Live is also highly dependent on a supported version of OBS Studio. You must uninstall OBS.Live before uninstalling OBS Studio.

thorny current
#

Well I'm confused because the build before this one was working just fine a couple of days ago, then I tried installing this because it was popping up. Is there a link to earlier builds of OBS.Live?

tulip hamlet
#

There hasn't been a new build since June. Note the version number is a date: 20.6.24, as in 2020-06-24

#

It was just trying to reapply itself after you updated to OBS 26. Which is unsupported at this time.

I appreciate it @tulip hamlet I didn't recall installing a new version of OBS but it's clear as day so I uninstalled 26 and installed version 25.0.8, reinstalled OBS.Live and it appears to be working just fine.

Check and see if you have dynamic bitrate turned on

vestal mortar
#

where do i go to do that

charred island
#

Can I use Restream while using the OBS.Live client while still getting the Benefits of the alerts on just one of the platform I'm streaming in? I'm planning on Streaming both to my FB Page and Youtube channel, FB being the main one where I'd like the alerts to show using StreamElements.

@shy mountain where do i got to put my dynamic bitrate on

shy mountain
#

@vestal mortar settings -> advanced -> scroll down a bit -> network

vestal mortar
#

bet thank you

shy mountain
#

@charred island We do not have restreaming support. Meaning that OBS.Live will only show events from one account, while you can still restream with OBS, its just our docks will not work for multiple accounts.
This also includes overlays - they are meant for the specific account

vestal mortar
#

oh and 1 more thing, so while turning the bitrate thingy on, can i stream games that are pretty hard to run a bit easier now ?

@shy mountain Oh, I see. Just to clarify, when I use Restream as the source even in Obs.live the alerts wouldn't work since I need to connect directly using the client and not to any other source like Restream? Even if I'm ok with only the FB alerts?

shy mountain
#

@vestal mortar If you had to turn the option on, then its not the dynamic bitrate that is causing you issues.

#

The bitrate(or kb/s you were referring to) is only internet speed related

vestal mortar
#

oh ok

shy mountain
#

not hardware related

#

which would allow you to stream games you couldn't before

steel bladeBOT

@vestal mortar Dropped Frames means that you have a bad connection between your device and the streaming platform and most likely something related to your ISP not handling the connection properly.

Speed tests usually cannot help solve this problem and its best to use this guide: https://obsproject.com/wiki/Dropped-Frames-and-General-Connection-Issues

If you stream to twitch, use the !twitchtest command and do a connection test to your regional servers.

@charred island I don't really understand what you are asking me.
Our overlays are meant for the account you usually stream on. Meaning if you have an overlay with our alert widget in your facebook account, you need to add that overlay to OBS. If you have the same overlay in your Youtube account, you also need to add that overlay to OBS

@shy mountain Apologies if I'm not clear. I'll try to re-phrase it.
For example, if I stream using OBS and use the Stream Service "Restream.io" to simultaneously stream to FB Page and Youtube (both are already added under my StreamElements account), will the alerts that I have setup on the StreamElements overlay (FB) still work even if I'm not using OBS.Live?

the widget in the overlay or the chat dock?

the widget in the overlay or the chat dock?
@shy mountain The widget, the one that's available when you're editing "My Overlays".

Yes, that would be fine. Just wanted to mirror my Facebook livestream to my Youtube

@exotic cliff 1) Right click on your OBS desktop shortcut and open the Properties
2) In the Target field, add the following to the very end: --remote-debugging-port=40404
3) Open OBS (or restart if it was open)
4) Open your web browser and type in: localhost:40404
5) Click on StreamElements - Activity feed
6) Navigate to the Console tab
7) Type the following into the console and hit enter: store.customBot.removeCustomBotIntegration()
8) Try setting the custom bot name
9) Remove the additional flag in step 2 from your shortcut properties.

Is it possible to get the obs.live widgets into obs

daring belfry
#

i can't install obs.live directly

i'm a linux user. i just want to integrate the widgets like media share and twitch chat into obs itself

#

just like i integrated the restream chat into obs.live while i was on windows. a web-widget

shy mountain
daring belfry
#

yes it has

shy mountain
#

but if it does, it can allow the twitch integration to be shown in OBS Studio

daring belfry
#

and the media share?

shy mountain
#

media share is our own thing

daring belfry
#

yeah you're right, keizar, i forgot to link it

shy mountain
#

and obs.live is not supported for Linux or Mac

ah so media share is no widget that can be imported directly into obs

well then ih have to use the web itnerface

@fringe rock 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 check Shutdown source when not visible. https://youtu.be/KDvLynUqXI4

  1. In OBS, click the Help menu

I recently had my first donation event and the alert didn't show on stream when it occurred. The individual used the "!donate" command in chat and I only found out after stream via my linked e-mail address. I received no notification in the event panel or in-stream alert. My SE account is setup to display an alert and works when i emulate the event. I have removed and re-added the alert, reloaded the SE browser source link to OBS Live, ensured my SE tipping panel is setup properly, and ensured updates are all current.

Is there something I am missing that will fix this issue? Thank you!

  4. Scroll a bit down and click on the purple Connect Custom Bot Account button

paypal donation?

river lotus
#

yes, it was transacted through paypal

wary dew
#

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

ok. What do i need to do so those show up instantly? It's been almost a week since that donation was made and I'd like for the alerts to show up when people make the donation instead of days later

Hey guys, so I'm new to this Server and I rly need some help. So, I recently got a new PC, quite a beast since I wanted tomake better streams for my viewers. Now I got the problem that I barely can stream most games on the settings I want. Like, I wanted to stream for example World of Warcraft on Max Settings. Stream is set to 1080p, 60FPS, 6000KB/s Bitrate etc. But I get huuuuuge FPS Breakdowns on my Stream, everything is fine ingame tho.

PC Specs:

CPU: Intel I9-10900K

GPU: RTX 3080 Gigabyte Eagle OC

I run everything on M.2 Samsung 970 Evo Plus SSDs

My GPU Usage is at 100% but my CPU is chilling at like 28%

#

I justr want a stable stream on those settings and for some reason that doesnt work even with a beast like that

steel bladeBOT
buoyant gate
#

Try changing you encoder to hardware and change you settings to 720p 60fps 4000 bitrate. At those settings you'll have more transcoding options for your stream anyway

#

@buoyant gate 1) Right click on your OBS desktop shortcut and open the Properties
2) In the Target field, add the following to the very end: --remote-debugging-port=40404
3) Open OBS (or restart if it was open)
4) Open your web browser and type in: localhost:40404
5) Click on StreamElements - Activity feed
6) Navigate to the Console tab
7) Type the following into the console and hit enter: store.customBot.removeCustomBotIntegration()
8) Try setting the custom bot name
9) Remove the additional flag in step 2 from your shortcut properties.
@steel blade Ok I just tried the info I was given to fix custom but name but I can't even add --remote-debbugging-port=40404 to the target field

#

Problem still persists, huge FPS breakdowns

#

Like, I can see it on the canvas without even having the stream on

buoyant gate
#

I'd say change the game to lower settings! Or if you have a second GPU which you can add, have that strictly allocated to obs

silk osprey
#

even on absolute lowest settings possible, the problem still persists

#

Like the Stream drops down to like 18FPS

in-game tho, nothing changed

my stream keeps crashing. coding overload is what im getting. only started after this update.

Especially since OBS.Live does not support it yet, but also because it's brand new and needs time for bug fixes, we don't recommend updating to OBS 26 just yet.

is there a way to uninstall the update then?

Yes, by uninstalling OBS entirely and reinstalling the earlier version.

No. It's a plugin.

If you weren't using it before then it's still irrelevant to your issue.

i have been using it for afew months. then i get an update, and all of a sudden everything breaks. just trying to fix it all

tulip hamlet
#

Were you using OBS Studio on its own, or were you using OBS.Live with it?

fringe python
#

live with it. ive been streaming on fb since the end of july

tulip hamlet
#

Then you need to reinstall OBS.Live.

fringe python
#

reinstalled. so now i wont be having the coding overload issues anymore?

tulip hamlet
#

That remains to be seen. You could still just be overworking your CPU.

#

it hasnt been an issue until the update. so now backtracking should hopefully fix it.

so i have an obs.live/obs studio question pertaining to the layout of widgets and scene preview. would this be the place to put it?

tulip hamlet
#

@clever trellis You need to double check your OBS audio settings.

clever trellis
#

well.. im put the url in a browser, no obs and still no get sound, i do the same with a follower alert and work fine, i dont think have problems with obs so in that case i get sound from brower.

tulip hamlet
#

If it works fine in the browser, then that's even more proof you've enabled or disabled a setting in OBS that is changing how the browser source behaves.

#

This is an OBS audio setting you'll need to work on.

clever trellis
#

ok, we have problem with my english (english its no my native languaje), dont work in browser mode, only work well in edit mode, in edit gert sound and animation, in browser/obs work the animation, but no sound.

tulip hamlet
#

Oh wait, I remember you.

#

I gave you your answer yesterday.

clever trellis
#

yeah? sorry.. i dont see any answer

#

let me check

tulip hamlet
clever trellis
#

yeah.. if unknow why have the mute alert.. so incredible work.. so the next question, why mute only the sub ones and no the follows? or dont work with all alerts?

Hi, im trying to set my stream key up in my obs but I can't find it? Anyone know where it is, I checked in the setting on the stream section but still can't find it?

tulip hamlet
#

If you've connected in Settings>Stream, a stream key is not needed.

cloud swift
#

Ohhhh ok thanks!!

snow mountain
#

hi there. when someone subscribes on my channel or donates bits, the visual alerts appear, but no sound. when I fake a sub through the website, everything works fine. WHat can this be?

#

thanks

tulip hamlet
#

You'll need to double check your audio settings in OBS, both in Settings>Audio as well as in the browser source properties as well.

snow mountain
#

but how can it be in that case that it appears when I fake them but not when they actually happen?

@tulip hamlet I did but I can't find anything. it all looks correct

@snow mountain 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.

Hey guys, if OBS.Live hasn't been updated to latest OBS version, why hasn't this been announced and could we please have an ETA on an update?

tulip hamlet
#

Well, generally we tend to announce updates, not lack of updates.

#

And there probably won't be one until 26.0.1

i cant see my timers in tthe obs chat overlay only in my twich app .. but if i use the widget in the obs chat widget i can see what i type in obs and my twitch app

I'm having an issue with a chat overlay. The overlay doesn't show messages from the streamelements bot

tulip hamlet
#

It's not meant to.

spare steeple
#

Why wouldn't it? It responds with all of my commands

tulip hamlet

#

Ah! Found that setting tyvm

#

Just tested and it's working.

magic merlin
tulip hamlet
#

That's... not OBS.

magic merlin
#

oh wait wth

#

oh i think its made to ignore streamelements answers my question

#

how do i get to those settings

tulip hamlet
#

The overlay editor.

#

On the website.

Hey obs team, i was wondering why OBS.live cannot be used on mac and only windows

magic merlin
#

oh ok

#

thank you @tulip hamlet

#

lmti

#

one more question for you .. how can i stream discord voice chats in obs?

#

maybe using the browser and getting the audio from there?

#

im trying to get my mic to come out when i play xbox one and i have my headset plugged into the controller .. it doesnt pick up my voice only the game and other people

steel bladeBOT
wheat ice
#

@tulip hamlet valid point, however if anyone updates obs to the current version, the .live plugin wont update and cause much confusion and reinstalls etc. You don't think a tweet or a discord announcement telling your users not to update and that you're working on the next version might be a little bit helpful?

#

Hi there, i updated to the newest version of OBS and it wont pickup my NDI even after uninstalling and reinstalling

wheat ice
#

steel bladeBOT
tulip hamlet
#

NDI and OBS.Live have absolutely nothing to do with each other and don't interact.

#

This is an OBS issue, better asked in OBS Project's Discord.

tulip hamlet
#

There is no new OBS.Live update. OBS.Live has not been updated to support OBS 26.

#

We do not recommend updating to OBS 26 at this time.

velvet roost

gotcha

i should have checked in here first

For some reason , lately, I have been dropping frames , and my 60 FPS on obs.live drops to around 40 -55 sometimes. I have never had this problem , any solution?

steel bladeBOT
#

@clever fox Dropped Frames means that you have a bad connection between your device and the streaming platform and most likely something related to your ISP not handling the connection properly.

Speed tests usually cannot help solve this problem and its best to use this guide: https://obsproject.com/wiki/Dropped-Frames-and-General-Connection-Issues

If you stream to twitch, use the !twitchtest command and do a connection test to your regional servers.

Can you elaborate? do you hear sound or they just don't show up at all even sound doesn't play?

shadow hornet

sound but no image

still not working

steel bladeBOT

@shadow hornet 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 see text on the overlay editor but its dark and tiny, still no image after doing that.

shy mountain

Click on the browser source

#

and then show me a screenshot for your OBS preview

My OBS has gone from solid performance to 23fps since recent update, any idea that cause?

shadow hornet
shy mountain
#

Yes

#

Seeing the green lines makes me think you are cropping the source

#

Oh I see

#

you have custom CSS enabled on the alerts

#

and that is not showing the image

#

not sure if thats intentional or not

shadow hornet
#

what do they do exactly

shy mountain
#

custom css?

shadow hornet
#

yeah

shy mountain
#

custom coded alert

#

it involved html css and javascript

I'm not sure I understand what you mean.

late furnace

for obs.live for renaming the bot

winged ermine
#

I'm not sure what that means.

Complete noob here when it comes to streamelements.

with SE bot you can rename the bot to a custom name

so i guessing you dont so try this

rugged quail

Hi all, looking for some help with my obs setup. I have an elgato hd60s+ linked to the ps4 and a camlink4k linked to my camera. The camera has a microphone that is recording my voice. The game sound is going from the ps4 through astro mixamp pro and then back into the elgato. When I load up OBS live, and I start recording, everything works fine, but when I try to record 10-15 minutes later the audio for both the camera and the game are massively delayed (around 15 seconds). I have trauled the internet to try to figure out what settings I need to change but I can't figure it out. Any help would help me keep more of my hair!
