I don't have that option there 😕
@strong kraken Go to OBS settings->stream and disconnect account and connect again and see if is there 🙂
@barren crypt Please provide a log from your last stream. To do this, in OBS go to Help > Log Files > Upload Last Log File and paste the link to the log file here.
@sharp turret It worked, thank you so much man ❤️

@strong kraken You're welcome! 
@pliant vessel StreamElements menu, on top of OBS > Logout > Login
So uh..? Even if i have multiple sources in the same scene it was working fine so thats not it..
@barren crypt For the best OBS support, please join their Official Discord @ discord.gg/obsproject
Its a SE problem though..
OBS.Live is plugin to OBS studio
thats amaazing its working 🙂
?
White boxes where stream info and media request is supposed to be

I searched and i found this:
- Uninstall OBS.Live and OBS Studio completely, but leave this UNchecked https://i.imgur.com/LBaHgM1.png
- Download and install OBS Studio from https://obsproject.com/
- If it doesn't crash, install OBS.Live too.
-
It's fixed? Nice!
-
It crashes again?
- Repeat steps 1 and 2
- Duplicate the current "Scene Collection" at the very top of OBS, call it something like "Backup" and remove all browser sources in that backup
- Install OBS.Live and see if it still crashes
- If yes, repeat steps 1 and 2, leave OBS.Live uninstalled, tell us that it didn't work and use your old default scene collection again.
You can try this 🙂
Ill try it! Much appreciated.
Thanks bub. Turned out libcef.dll was corrupted after looking at the logs. Uninstalling and Reinstalling fixed it! Dani is a goat lol
Hello, I'm having an issue with OBS. Ever since an update happened some time last week, the buttons to add Scene Transitions have completely disappeared. I can no longer add my own scene transitions due to this. I have tried making new Scene Collections or even going to my old Collections but the buttons are gone. Is there a way to fix this? I have something important happening this week and I need everything working 100%.
Click add whatever type you want stinger etc...
No, I have that button but I used to be able to add a custom transition. Like I have an animated transition scene I would like to use but there is no button to do it anymore. There was before the update.
I don't want the premade transitions. I have my own that I was able to add before & now the button/option is gone. Just wondering how to add my own personal/custom scene transitions again.
can anyone help my streamelements has gone from my obs with the new obs update
Hey guys, my English is not so good but I try my best. I want to switch from stream labs obs to obs/ streamelements. My problem starts with the import of my scene collection from slobs to obs via obs.live. There is always a error message shown when I want to implement my scenes. this is the massage: Import failed. Please try again later.
I hope you guys may help me. Because to create everything new cost me so much nerves and time.😭
Hey Folks, I reset my session in OBS.Live and now I can't connect my custom bot account. When I try to connect it, it takes me through the twitch authentication flow and does nothing when I complete my twitch login. Any advice?
i need help
Hi @rancid kestrel, Please ask your question(s) or describe the problem you're looking to solve so staff or a support volunteer can assist you as soon as they are available.
@hushed fern 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.
that worked 😄
@wheat wyvern to import from one website to another, you will open StreamElements on Google Chrome, log into your profile, install the extension (if it wasn't installed), open a new tab, enter into your streamlabs profile, and use the StreamElements Import extension ...
@plain mason Is it not possible only with the obs live application?
@wheat wyvern doing this procedure you will be importing the content from your profile on the streamlabs website into your profile on the StreamElements website. There will be no data transfer between SLOBS and OBS Studio or OBS.Live, which is StreamElements' Live plugin in OBS Studio.
How do I add alerts i cant find it
Hi there! I have been struggling for a while, I have been setting up alerts in stream elements and all had been going well. Until I created a webm file and will only upload blank documents. I can see the file and that it works but once its loaded its just nothing for the length of the recording. I'm sure that I'm missing something, can anyone help?
hey in OBS how can i change stream title? i'm playing a different game and want to change the title of the stream
@fading hound You can change it in activity feed in OBS
does anyone have a solution to doubling of audio with the media request widget? i want to listen to the songs my chat suggest through it, which i figured was only possible by monitoring the media request source through OBS advanced properties. But the problem is that my viewers hear double audio from the media request/ desktop audio.
im dumb. i can just do "monitor only" and chat can listen through my desktop audio only.
@visual fox
- Right mouse click on Media Request source and select the Properties button;
- on the Properties window, select the item Shutdown source when not visible and Control audio via OBS, close the Properties;
- Right mouse click on Audio Mixer and select the Advanced Audio Properties button;
- On the Media Request item, select the Sync Offset Monitor Only (mute output), and Close the window.
@plain mason Would you Explain me how to? or did you have a Link or a description how to?
@wheat wyvern what did you not understand from the last message? - https://discordapp.com/channels/141203863863558144/494513233416421386/765278032301785098
@plain mason because of this
and the video didnt helped me because she's just clicking import without installing anything..
@wheat wyvern show us the screenshot of the entire browser screen and the extension.
@wheat wyvern One tab open and logged into SE, one tab open and logged into SL, then run it.
@tulip hamlet the Import of my Alearts and my Tips ist working with the OBS.Live but not my Scene collection. is it possible that there is a copyright or something like this is active ?
@wheat wyvern Scene import does not go straight into OBS. It adds to your account on the site.
Hiii, I have an issue... my laptop have an AMD graphic card, but streamelements doesn't show it as an option to use as encoder. It wasn't an issue with streamlabs, and I haven't found any info about it online.
Any help?
@full rock For the best OBS support, please join their Official Discord @ discord.gg/obsproject
But with the Import tool of OBS.Live it dosent work for me. Should it Work?
The importer can fail if your assets are too large, or if you're attempting to import Streamlabs-owned assets.
Ah. so maybe there is a Copyright on it and thats the reason why i cant copy it..
Thank you @tulip hamlet i think this is the reason. I Build my stream Aroun some free Scene Collection stuff from SL. Nowerdays I didnt use anything from then but the Scene Collection is the same.
Hi I am having trouble with setting up labels on stream elements. I set up a follower goal and everything works fine but when i try to move it to the bottom left corner of my screen it disappears. I works perfectly fine in the top half of my screen. I don't know how to fix it
@cyan sleet 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
sweet thank you very much
I also have a question about the stream chat. Can you make the background transparent so you just see the chat pop up.
thank you
Hi! I need some help@okease
@lament crag Welcome to the helpdesk! Please let us know how we can assist you today and a support volunteer or staff member will assist you as soon as they are available. Thank you for your patience.
As of the last two days, my stream mic audio is staticy when I stream but sound crystal clear in discord.
@lament crag For the best OBS support, please join their Official Discord @ discord.gg/obsproject
I can’t join their discord..
now how do i put my widgets into my scenes
@mortal girder 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
my obs says i dont have access to dashboard, does this mean someone hacked my account?
@dusk kayak Please logout of StreamElements at https://streamelements.com/logout and then login again to your account (Twitch/YouTube/Facebook).
My custom bot name lost sync and I'm unable to select it from the drop down menu in the activity feed settings. I've checked the settings on the bot's Twitch account and it shows "StreamElements - Custom Bot" is an authorized connection. I'm a fairly tech savvy guy and I've had another extremely tech conscious friend helping me look at this. We even went as far as finding a back door entry to gain access to the activity feed settings outside of OBS Live, still no luck. I'm at a complete loss, any suggestions?
@fathom nest 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

@pearl bramble Please provide a log from your last stream. To do this, in OBS go to Help > Log Files > Upload Last Log File and paste the link to the log file here.
Hello, I can't stream CS:Go for some reason. Whenever I start the game the stream software just doesn't catch it somehow. She screen remains black until I enable "display capture" instead of "game capture"...
@real current Valve has implemented a trusted mode which does not allow OBS to hook CS:GO using Game Capture. Read more in their announcement post here https://blog.counter-strike.net/index.php/2020/07/30736/.
Additionally, they have no plans on allowing OBS in trusted mode.
https://support.steampowered.com/kb_article.php?ref=8835-KLXV-0292#whitelist
You will need to run the game in either windowed or borderless fullscreen and use Window Capture instead.
Alternately, you can launch the game with -allow_third_party_software.
Thank you
Hello,
I have a issue, i have 2 twitch accounts, but now i only use the second one. The problem is that i cant use the activity feed to change for example the bot name, because it opens for the other account, i tried disconnecting over and over for it to change, it doesnt 😦
@steel blade
im just gona use obs studio cant be bothered with this crap for now
hello!
I have a questions
does obs.live have a viewer count for your stream? (viewer count that shows up in obs not in your live stream)
@glacial helm View > Doccs > Stream Stats for hidden viewer count for your eyes only You Must Have Your Twitch Accounted Connected Via File > Settings > Stream OBS
Is this function only available for twitch? I mainly stream on Facebook
ahahahaha i'll just try to ask in #helpdesk-facebook
Hope that helps ya 
is there a way to force OBS to update fonts? It doesnt seem to recognize the Rock Salt font that is part of my overlay
actually going though half a dozen fonts OBS doesnt seem to recognise any of them?
@hazy depot Google Fonts
More than 900 google fonts are supported at this time. You can preview them here: https://fonts.google.com/
Custom Fonts
Steps:
- Install the font on the streaming PC or choose a pre-installed windows font.
- In the overlay widget settings, select Text Settings
- Click on Enable Custom Font
- Type the name of the font as it appears in the windows font directory (This is usually
C:\Windows\Fonts)
Note: After installing fonts, the browser and OBS must be restarted for the font to appear.
@dense spear 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.

Hi there, i have problem with my app, it just doesn't capture any screen, and if i try capture windows they apear cropped. Any idea whats wrong?
@deep skiff For the best OBS support, please join their Official Discord @ discord.gg/obsproject
It won't let me import the alerts or anything from another platform, it gives me an error, how do I solve it?
And when I stream I get a lot of lag, why does it happen?
Hi - I'm using obslive and have a custom bot name enabled and working. However I've still got a bot named streamelements in my channel which is I believe there because of the streamelements dashboard. Do I need it there for any reason or can I safely remove it?
It's supposed to be there.
Thank you! I'll try to put my OCD away then 😄
Hey team, can someone point me on some instructions how to setup Stream Deck to push sounds into my OBS Studio? I'm a n00b 😦
@prisma ivy If you are having issues with Elgato hardware or software, we recommend reaching out to their support here: https://e.lga.to/help
Thanks team.. this is more of a setup rather than an issue. I was wondering if anyone has some advice to offer
@untold quartz OBS.Live is a Plugin for OBS created by StreamElements. You can download OBS.Live here: https://streamelements.com/obslive
Please make sure you have the latest version of OBS installed, Current Version: 25.0.8. You can install OBS here: https://obsproject.com/
i tried importing scenes from SLOBS to Stream Elements
it keeps saying "failed importing Scene Collection"
is there a solution?
The import will fail if you are attempting to import assets that are too large or Streamlabs-owned assets.
I have the last version of OBS.Live but i cant change the tittle of the stream or the categorys
I havent the panel "stream information"
@untold quartz on OBS at the top go to View, then Docks, then you should see Stream Information
@untold quartz
For some reason, i havent that one.
You need to log in. Settings>Stream.
I´m already logged :/
@untold quartz If you are not seeing the OBS Twitch integrations and have OBS.Live installed, please follow these steps:
- Make sure you are on the latest and greatest version of OBS.Live
- Exit OBS (make sure OBS is not running)
- Delete
%appdata%\obs-studio\plugin_config\obs-browser\obs_profile_cookies - Start OBS.Live
- Settings > Stream > Disconnect > Connect
I reloged and the pannel appear, thanks.
Sorry about my englishg
merch purchase aren't showing on stream?
@untold quartz make sure you have both BettterTTV and FrankerFaceZ as twitch chat add-ons
Hi, Stream elements will not tramsfer my overlays from SLOBS
The import will fail if you are attempting to import assets that are too large or Streamlabs-owned assets.
is obs.live bot down?
Our bot is up and running as expected.
Do I have to do it manualy then?
You may need to, yes, if you can't edit your scenes beforehand.
hmmm okay. They're all ready to go and set up on Slobs so I was confused
I'm having an odd issue. For some reason the categories don't change properly when using streamelements. It is always "one game behind". So if I stream apex legends one day, then Squad the next, the title will change properly but it'll say I'm playing Apex; however on twitch itself it shows squad, but then after the stream is over, it changes back to Apex as the category of the VOD
I never used to have this issue just using obs normal and editing my title/cat on twitch itself
@tulip hamlet weird because it's not working for me and another streamer
if I edit it on twitch itself still its one category behind.
merch purchases aren't showing on my stream?
You need to be using a Merchandise Alert Box.
A regular Alert Box doesn't have merch alerts.
any fine folks able to help me with my issue above?
but it shows this @tulip hamlet
Thats for 3rd party alerts that hook up towarsa pur API
ok so now the alert repeats twice what they purchased
but when i do a test alert it's fine
Twice where?
in obs when i replay an old alert
@gray gale Make sure to ☑️ “Shutdown source when not visible” for all browser sources (all OBS scenes). If using studio mode, uncheck “Swap Preview/Output Scenes After Transitioning.” Also keep in mind that sound can play from any overlay loaded in the browser (editor or launched). https://i.imgur.com/6bWXxjR.png https://i.imgur.com/yY0wcFl.png
it only repeats the purchase not the name
it's definitely not because of the browser being open at the same time or w/e because i muted the browser
it says "[Person] just bought [Merch Item] [Merch Item]"
im having an issue with my media request echoing in obslive when i hit show on stream(i am not live when doing this) but it runs fine if i just play the music not on stream
@tough verge Make sure to ☑️ “Shutdown source when not visible” for all browser sources (all OBS scenes). If using studio mode, uncheck “Swap Preview/Output Scenes After Transitioning.” Also keep in mind that sound can play from any overlay loaded in the browser (editor or launched). https://i.imgur.com/6bWXxjR.png https://i.imgur.com/yY0wcFl.png
How can I make this spam stop?
What spam?
I click the X.. and 5 minutes later it pops up again
On the Activity Feed of OBS Live
Have you created a store?
Yes
Can you try this:
@exotic citrus StreamElements menu, on top of OBS > Logout > Login
It shouldn't I guess
okay, I clicked the X so many times tonight, because it shrinks my feed
but I gave up
Did the logout/login not work?
I don't see it anymore, but I'm guessing I'll have to wait till tomorrow night's stream to see if it fixed it
I'll let you know tomorrow night if it comes back
Hey does anybody know how to bring back the streamelements activity feed dock? It disappeared a long time ago and I'm using a different one it just doesn't show donations and such
Streamelements on top -> activity feed
@shy mountain is there a way i can get it into obs.live again though?
OBS.Live is a plugin for OBS Studio
we just add a few docks
what I just provided as instructions
is exactly what you need to do, if you have obs.live installed
got it thanks!
Hi! @shy mountain
So I created my own alerts on SE and everything is working in the editor, but on stream sometimes the alerts don’t show or multiple alerts play simultaneously. Any thoughts on how I can fix?
@tawdry sundial Right click on the BrowserSource > Properties > Scroll down a bit > Refresh cache of current page
@tawdry sundial OBS > Settings > Advanced > Scroll down > Enable or disable Browser Source Hardware Acceleration, depending on its current state > Restart OBS (This does not apply for OBS on Mac)
https://i.imgur.com/ggMe9ZE.png
Awesome thank you! I’ll give this a try.
one more question.
How do I go about getting my host and my raid alerts to stop showing at the same time in SE? Like is there a way I can suppress an alert if they both show up at the same time?
I love you stream elements but please for the love of god, fix this top box, I close it and it re opens a few mins later...
https://thecynicalkitty.com/s/20201402699.png
@placid cliff Please logout of StreamElements at https://streamelements.com/logout and then login again to your account (Twitch/YouTube/Facebook).
Question for the Masters: My StreamElements Share Source will not update with new shares, nor will my Alert Box I set up BUT the Likes, Follows as well as Stars update just fine, any suggestions?
Sincerely,

@honest tide If you are not seeing likes/shares on your current stream or page, that might be due to how the privacy settings of the person liking/sharing your stream are set.
If they are set to private we won't be able to see the events.
Specifically for shares, if they share in private groups, we won't be able to see the event.
so im trying to stream OSU! but i cant get the game to show up on my stream

Quick question.
How do I go about getting my host and my raid alerts to stop showing at the same time in SE? Like is there a way I can suppress an alert if they both show up at the same time?
Hey Chat, i cant see in OBS my Alerts idk why can some one help me?
@unreal tangle 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
Setting a custombot name doesnt want to apply for some reason...

Hello when I'm streaming another game I'm changing and saving the game name but it doesn't work on twitch and I guess this problem is from streamelements
Obviously I don't forgot to save everytime I change the game name

Hello how can i make custom surroundings of chat and face cam and such??
@worldly plank 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
Hello, I got a problem , when i put a custom bot name as my name the bot doesn't work. Anyone has the same problem ?
oh my fault the question I had belongs here
if anyone could help that would be great

hallo ik have a question about my streamelements
idk if it's been asked a lot, but is it safe to update to OBS 26? Will I lose OBS.Live from updating to OBS 26? (If an OBS.Live update already came out, I'm not able to get it)
ok, so I can update now and everything will be fine?

@vernal brook 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
hello this is my first time here I'm trying to stream on my pc i run a test stream and everything is fine but when i actually stream i loose internet connection can someone help me out please
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.
Hey! So, Im not entierly sure whas going on, but my stream bandwith suddenly drops to ) once I open a game, but its running oerfectly if the game isnt open. I havent had this problem before, but i started having bandwidth problems as of yesterday. Ive Tried uninstalling and reinstalling several times, and even tried not installing the latest update, but none of that worked. Any ideas?
hello trying to make edit my overlay and changing labels, is there a way for me to just change what type of label it would be(example: a new tip label and i want to change it to Top star label) or is there no other way than to start from scratch?
any ideas would be appreciated if anyone can help me
@regal temple There's no way to change the type of widget a widget is. You need to delete it and add the proper widget.
I have a set of overlays that im trying to use and i dont want to tinker with how it looks but i cant change the label type
Then you'll want to look into the widget's settings, write down its text settings like font, size, color, etc, then delete it, make the new widget, and set it up with those same settings.
i see, the widget that i have has a black border in to it is there a way i can do that as well?
What do you mean by black border?
around the text there is a border
@tulip hamlet i appologize for too many questions i just want to learn stream elements so bad
@regal temple There's no actual border. That's just the widget's bounding box for placement and positioning.
@tulip hamlet thank you sir, i was also wondering how you get a snipp of your stream to use as a guide in stream elements, whenever i do it it doesnt match the 1080p resolution
Open a VOD, put it to full screen, take a screenshot.
can i do it in OBS or no?
I get a crash error when i open my stream from streamelements now
@shy mountain
https://clips.twitch.tv/FaintSpicyHedgehogKeepo
@exotic citrus can u let me know if u fix that merch alert spam it was annoying me too
I need help this all just randomly happened today
@pearl bramble hey if you are experiencing any crashes on obs , its most likely due to being on 26.0.0 or 26.0.1 so either downgrade to 25.0.8 or upgrade to 26.0.2.
@pearl bramble if that doesn't work try this:
HOW TO: OBS.Live crashes at startup
1. Uninstall OBS.Live and OBS Studio completely, but leave this UNchecked https://i.imgur.com/LBaHgM1.png
2. Download and install OBS Studio from https://obsproject.com/
3. If it doesn't crash, install OBS.Live too.
- It's fixed? Nice!
- It crashes again?
4. Repeat steps 1 and 2
5. Duplicate the current "Scene Collection" at the very top of OBS, call it something like "Backup" and remove all browser sources in that backup
6. Install OBS.Live and see if it still crashes
- If yes, repeat steps 1 and 2, leave OBS.Live uninstalled, tell us that it didn't work and use your old default scene collection again.
same here
@honest echo this only works on first lunch of obs live, 2nd time it crashes again
it was only able to launch once but then froze then my whole pc became sluggish and i got a decent pc
@ocean tiger "installation aborted" message could appears for 2 reason
- The installers doesn't have admin rights
- You unistall OBS Studio first, in order to unistall plugin (obs.live) you need to have obs studio installed
i do have admin rights and i deleted the streamlabs first
not streamlabs streamelements
StreamLabs have its own streaming software
StreamElements only provide a plugin (obs.live) for OBS Studio
yeah i misstyped
i have obs and streamelements
i have the obs studio 26.0.2 and i cant uninstall streamelements to continue the process
restart your PC and try again
I did but i will try that again
still the same issue after restart
might just have to switch back to streamlabs
good afternoon everyone! I ahve a question 🙂 (im sure im not the only one with Qs haha) anyway, I am trying to have only one source's audio come out of my computer speakers, specifically it's the store redemption widget, I dont want any other audio OTHER THAN the audio notifications i have set up for the stream store
Also side note: When i do !redeem [command] in chat the alert will not pop up or use any audio
might just have to switch back to streamlabs
@ocean tiger
tbh i left SLOBS because it uses too much power
SLOBS is good because its userfriendly but has too much in the interface going on
causing games to drop frames or not run at all
i cant even uninstall streamelements or launch obs studio it just crashes i already sent the crash report
Forza Horizon 4 wont run with SLOBS, crashes no matter what
restarted the pc multiple times even removed all my files
have you tried uninstalling from your settings?
@ocean tiger You need to uninstall OBS.Live while you have a proper installation of OBS Studio in place. What version of OBS Studio is currently installed?
^
Try uninstalling it and reinstalling 25.0.8.
And then try uninstalling OBS.Live after that.
can i ask why would you want to remove that? i use it so i wasnt sure if there was a downfall to it
remove what?
obs.live
hm
i like the obs live but after today idk
i would do what Nethyr suggested maybe the older version will allow you to uninstall it
im curious as to whats in your tower for parts
and how old is your pc?
sometimes things go buggy when computers shut down
might just completely wipe it again
again???
yep
hmmm
you shouldnt have to do that esp with a 3month old com
i havent cleaned mine out at all
if you feel comfortable enough i can discord chat you (so we dont have to fill up this chat) and maybe i can try to help you figure out your issue
but i dont wanna just hop into your dms without asking
we could if you want i dont mind
Anyone else having a issue setting custom bot name on OBS.live
@placid cliff If your commands recently stopped working and you're using OBS.Live and a custom bot name do the following:
- In OBS.Live, click on the hamburger menu (three stripes) at the top left of your activity feed
- Click on Stream Settings > Custom bot name
- 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).
- Scroll a bit down and click on the purple Connect Custom Bot Account button
- Log in as usual and Authorize the custom bot name
- Back in the Activity feed, click on the Send Test Message button and check if your custom bot name starts working again
@placid 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.
Ok step 7 has lost me a smidge... where do i put that string
( i kinda pushed this up my b but i need to ask again) I am trying to have only one source's audio come out of my computer speakers, specifically it's the store redemption widget, I dont want any other audio OTHER THAN the audio notifications i have set up for the stream store
Also side note: When i do !redeem [command] in chat the alert will not pop up or use any audio
also how do you get obs version 24.0.3
Eyyy i fixed it 😄 thanks who ever gave me that, would it not be better to add a "clear bot cashe" as a small button or something 😄 just a idea.
but thanks to who ever helped me with that

Is the Media Request widget in obs.live not functioning any longer or is it just me?
@shy mountain StreamElements menu, on top of OBS > Logout > Login
wow i should have come here earlier, been bothering me since last update, thanks bot
Media Request is still not working for me...when I try to put a link it just plays me that start up video and it wont show on stream either..
( i kinda pushed this up my b but i need to ask again) I am trying to have only one source's audio come out of my computer speakers, specifically it's the store redemption widget, I dont want any other audio OTHER THAN the audio notifications i have set up for the stream store

i was able to get the browser source's audio into the tray below the preview, but i cant change the output setting
Hey how to solve the copy download problem from StreamLabs
You'd have to ask Streamlabs.
The import will fail if you are attempting to import assets that are too large or Streamlabs-owned assets.
what this option is for;) hehe
Hi I am having a typing problem when I open OBS
Idk how to fix it
I uninstalled and reinstalled
Nothing is fixing the problem
I also had this on streamlabs
Everytime I try to update
I am trying to have only one source's audio come out of my computer speakers, specifically it's the store redemption widget, I dont want any other audio OTHER THAN the audio notifications i have set up for the stream store
Also side note: When i do !redeem [command] in chat the alert will not pop up or use any audio
i was able to get the browser source's audio into the tray below the preview, but i cant change the output setting
i also tried a program for audio splitting but it didnt work 😦
You'll need to use an audio mixer, and we can't help with those setups. Much too complicated.
hey so im trying to stream apex to facebook using obs studio but during the live stream, the game audio is like non existent. The viewers cant hear the game.. is there a fix ?

Hello, i was wondering if it is possible to dual stream on streamelements like you can on streamlabs? Can anyone help me out?
StreamElements does not have multistreaming support.
thank you.
When I click show on stream for Media Request I can no longer hear the audio is there a way to fix that?
You need to mess with your audio settings in OBS so you're getting the audio from the browser source.
The audio will play to the stream, just I can't hear it then. Do you know what settings I should mess with?
If the stream hears it and you don't, then you need to make sure you're monitoring the audio device it's playing out of.
It goes through the browser source but I cant hear through my headphones
Nevermind I looked into and figured it out thank you
Please Help I cannot Start The Stream This Dialouge Box Pop out Blank Please Help

anyone know how multistream using stream elements? Will Alerts and alert list be unified, also chat?
StreamElements does not have multistreaming support.
My twitch chat stats keeps coming up with a 404 not found page and the user name is correct on the page. anything i can do to fix that?
@gusty burrow If you changed your name on Twitch, please follow these steps:
- Visit https://streamelements.com/logout and then log in again by connecting with Twitch.
- On the right side of the dashboard page that opens, select Join under bot settings. If it says Part select that and then select Join to send the bot to the chat. Don't forget to mod the bot by typing
/mod streamelementsin your channel if you have not already. - Post your old and your new name here so that we can update your channel's chatstats tracking (must be done by staff).
it seems ok now @gusty burrow
Thankyou 😄
it seems ok now @gusty burrow
@long bobcat ive tried clicking into a couple of times but still 404. should i wait a little bit before trying to get into it?
I don't see 404 here https://stats.streamelements.com/c/slopontwitch
Thats my old user sorry haha. can i get that to me the smaddzz username?
sorry I misread, I'm used to old name being first :X apologies, done
I don't know how to explain but something went wrong with the i think its called preview thing where its a lot bigger then the screen
sorry I misread, I'm used to old name being first :X apologies, done
@long bobcat thankyou 😄
@wet stag Right click the preview -> Preview Scaling -> Scale to window
Not really. Seems like you messed with settings that you shouldn't touch. You probably clicked this, which you should not do
i guess i did it by mistake
It would be the best to select "Tools" at the top of OBS, then "Auto Configuration Wizard"
@steel mural thanks for the help with that picture i found out what to do
erm okay 👀 
i click it again and everything fixed its self somehow
Because you selected a source that has the right dimensions.
Normally you'd go to Settings -> Video
Select your monitors resolution for the Base (Canvas) and either your monitors resolution or something like 1280x720 for your output res.
hey guys in my obs when i try stop the recording it is not stopping (is not responding to stop)after the update. what should i need to do any advice.

this is all i see at the top of the window
You don't have obs.live installed it seems
@graceful solar If you are not seeing the OBS Twitch integrations and have OBS.Live installed, please follow these steps:
- Make sure you are on the latest and greatest version of OBS.Live
- Exit OBS (make sure OBS is not running)
- Delete
%appdata%\obs-studio\plugin_config\obs-browser\obs_profile_cookies - Start OBS.Live
- Settings > Stream > Disconnect > Connect
am i meant to put %appdata%\obs-studio\plugin_config\obs-browser\obs_profile_cookies into cmd?
this one?
yes
ok, now i'm just missing my activity feed
View -> docks
sweet, thank you very much, never would of figured any of this out otherwise
merch purchase alerts repeats twice what they purchased twice but when i do a test alert it's fine
https://clips.twitch.tv/FaintSpicyHedgehogKeepo
i'm also posting this for the 3rd time haven't gotten much help :/
what do you mean
Which of the 2 overlays do you use?
the bottom
ooooh so the TTS is reading the items twice
yeah
sorry
I understood that the alert played twice
no worries
ok i see the issue..or rather hear the issue
well it plays the items twice but when i do test alerts it doesn't do that?
let me see if i can test it on my account and report it as a bug
oh you are right
Ok, so this is a TTS bug
I will grab some screenshots and try and explain it in detail as to what is happening
okay
For now I would suggest to not use TTS
i mean i can probably put up with it for now i don't think i'm going to hear it that often anyway
That would be up to you, hence why suggestion 🙂
@gray gale StreamElements menu, on top of OBS > Logout > Login
after i click x it pops back up like 5 minutes or so later throughout the entire time i'm live and it's kinda annoying
Just do the logout/login
https://prnt.sc/uzsw69 Hey, how can I make such a bar in streamelements.com/dashboard
you need to have design elements to upload to your overlay @arctic estuary
the names are widgets but the bar and general design was pre-made by someone and uploaded
@long bobcat ok thank you i thought i could do it for my project somehow
https://prnt.sc/uzt7pb On the left, I entered the names. Why is it not displayed on the project?
Because thats the name of the widget in the layers tab
Go to bottom
not the settings of the widget
Setting
click on the widget -> settings
Change name there
@arctic estuary 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

Hi, I'm trying to remove a bot account from OBS so that I can replace it with one of a different name, but I can't seem to find a way to do that? Currently the chat bot has my name, but I'd like to change it to a different name (I've already set up a new account with the name)
@grand aspen If your commands recently stopped working and you're using OBS.Live and a custom bot name do the following:
- In OBS.Live, click on the hamburger menu (three stripes) at the top left of your activity feed
- Click on Stream Settings > Custom bot name
- 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).
- Scroll a bit down and click on the purple Connect Custom Bot Account button
- Log in as usual and Authorize the custom bot name
- Back in the Activity feed, click on the Send Test Message button and check if your custom bot name starts working again
I've already done that, but I connected the wrong account and can't find a way to disconnect it so that I can connect a different one
if you're on the 3rd option you will have a way to disconnect the account
once the 3rd option is selected the buttons to set\disconnect an account show up below
Oh, that was my issue 😅 sorry about that, it seems really simple now
it's ok it's a common mixup 
obs has face masks?
Hey there!
I've been having some issues with Obs crashing a lot whilst streaming. My pc could do with upgrades but isn't awful and my settings are set appropriately, I checked the crash reports and found a crash on thread 29C0, any idea what this may be?
A quick Google search left me confused.
Thank you in advance.

Hello everyone. I'm having an issue with OBS.Live. When i first connected it to FB, it set up my activity feed and FB chat in OBS by itself. Somehow now I lost them and don"t know how to fix it. Now all I see is my Twitch feed and chat and i"m streaming to FB. Please help
How do I connect the overlay I created on to my obs.live? I have all of the information I could need but I cannot see it popping up on my overlay

What's up everyone. I am having a problem with my chat not showing my custom emotes when I type in the hype command. When I type in a basic emote it shows up, but my custom stream emotes for the affiliate page wont pull up the emote. For example, when I type in YouWHY (an emote everyone has) it will show up, but when I type in cereal1Monster (one of my custom emotes) it wont show up in the chat for the hype command. Has anyone else had this problem?
so i got an overlay from own3d and im currently trying to figure out how to apply it properly in either the stream elements website or obs.live
Hey all! Quick question, i'm streaming another game than usually, twitch considers well that i'm streaming the other game, but not streamelements
anyone encountered this or have the solution
?
i can't add another webcapture dievice to a second scene. What im i doing wrong
is OBS live available in Mac
For some reason, my game capture is not working. It will capture the full display, but does not recognize any application when I start a game
OK, so, when I open up the properties for game capture I can see the application in the window, but it does not show on my stream preview?
when i open up obs it crashes and i get a popup saying "whoops, obs has crashed" i've tried uninstalling and reinstalling but didn't help. any solutions? also noticed when i tried uninstalling again it couldn't fully uninstall
@toxic cypress copy the webcam source created and paste it on the other scene.
@dense breach no, it doesn't.
i need help stream elemnts not getting any data from twitch like donations
Streamelements Website doesn't load and Twitch Live Streams don't load either..
Am I doing something wrong here?
@static meadow 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.
Thanks Support. I'll try this and get back to you.
Hi. I created an overlay on streamelements, it's looping correctly on elements editor, but on preview url it's totally blank. no errors, nothing.
While importin from Streamlabs, I'm getting stuck at uploading media files (12 of 11) - 100%
i gotta a blank page on the generated link, stuck since then 😅 the internet doesnt know what it is
@tough grail Please provide your account ID found at the top of this page: https://streamelements.com/dashboard/account/channels This ID is public info and safe to share here.
the editor is looping correctly the image. i dont know what else to do.
@echo zenith Probably the assets are too big to be imported

@tough grail try with gif or images, i already reported video not been able to play it
i converted to webm.
it's a video with transparent background, originally was .mov, and also has audio.
can i use any other thing than webm ?
like i said i already report to our dev team the issue with the video files
hmm i replaced the video with gif. still nothing shows in the browser preview
it's a 5s gif. what settings should I type in there, for delay / iteration / show images ?
i want to show this every 10 minutes
I will DM you with some screenshoot @tough grail
also, obs shows nothing from the preview url. nothing happens for over a minute
the gif has 5s :/
i'm not able to DM you, but i can see the overlay working fine on my end

oh it worked. but gif is not transparent as I expected. Do you know how premiere exports a transparent gif animation?
and the settings what are the 3 values to show the 5s gif every minute?
not sure about the premiere thing, but for to show 1 gift every 60 secs, try this: 1, 60,5
with 1 20 5, it's cutting the first frames
and showing the initial frames after the animation was suposed to end
try with 7 in the last value cause iirc the widget take 1 sec after and before each image
i set the fades to zero, should put back to 1 ?
now it's moving frames forward every loop
the initial frames are hopping forward.
0 7 7 shows the gif twice, before disapearing to white page
makes no sense. the gif has 5s. @honest echo
Any chance I can add mp3 together with a png on the same url ? I tried adding mp3 here, but no audio plays. 😅
@tough grail you should export it as webm instead of gif
WebM plug-in for Adobe Premiere Pro and Adobe Media Encoder
Best webm plug-in
Allows alpha channel for transparency
can someone tell me why there is a black screen delay on switching scenes for streamelements scenes? https://gyazo.com/0d917b40b185b95deb769ca431f190cb
@candid pecan Check out this tutorial for OBS’ studio mode which allows you to preload scenes before transitioning. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W8iWsD2Lq3U
If you are using OBS.Live, there's no need to have "Shutdown source when not visible" ticked in Browser Source Settings.

My obs suddenly started crashing right away every time I start it. I tried uninstalling but I streamelements or obs.live gets stuck at 80% uninstall and aborts.
@blazing bane 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.
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.
Hello, is there anyway to get a chat dock for youtube into OBS.Live like Twitch?
oh, and an activity feed?
@blazing bane 1) Uninstall OBS.Live and OBS Studio completely, but leave this unchecked https://i.imgur.com/LBaHgM1.png
2) Download and install OBS Studio from https://obsproject.com/
3) If it doesn't crash, install OBS.Live too.
-
It's fixed? Nice!
-
It crashes again?
- Repeat steps 1 and 2
- Duplicate the current "Scene Collection" at the very top of OBS, call it something like "Backup" and remove all browser sources in that backup
- Install OBS.Live and see if it still crashes
- If yes, repeat steps 1 and 2, leave OBS.Live uninstalled, tell us that it didn't work and use your old default scene collection again.
@red cove Yes, if you login with your Youtube account, rather then your twitch.
Hi guys, so yesterday i installed the streamelement obs live plug in on my streamdeck. I added the kappagen button and i tried to press it, it gave command to my live chat '!kappagen' then triggered the emotes, and i also tried the charge kappagen all both was was working fine.

@blazing bane dont install the newest update for obs it just breaks the .live
OBS.Live is fully functioning with 26.0.2
@dense talon 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.

lol no it hasnt
There is nothing to update for OBS.Live in order for it to be installed and working with the newest OBS Studio version
its a plugin
not a fork like SLOBS
I've talked with the devs 3 days ago about this and they say there is nothing new for us to update.
the bot didn't help lol
If OBS was crashing and you have v26.0.0 or v26.0.1
those were stability crashes from OBS
which were fixed in v26.0.2
i had 26 0 2 lol

I just keeps crashing, in a sense that streamelements stuff isnt loading and the error in the background is frozen,
I have reinstalled many times.
so my Streamelements Overlay source was bugging?
I removed that and it works.
I need to have it to get notifications on stream though.
If you are referring to the activity feed, you can use this: https://streamelements.com/groundcontrol or popout the activity feed from the main dsahboard
nah I mean the overlay, follow sounds/animations etc
@blazing bane 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
you don't need obs.live to have the overlay to work
I know. Just wanted to use both. And I was until today.
My text in obs started to show kind of thin like pixelated, it only happens in obs, stream info window, chat window and activity feed. If I take a screenshot of it it looks fine? Any other software or browser has good text on both monitors, what could it be?
I am being told and I am noticing that my voice is always lower than those in my game.... I use discord for my D&D and somehow my heroes' voice is much louder than mine... can someone else

Hi, I have a video that I want to play on a timer, it's basically a "subscribe now with twitch prime" animation. I'd like to play it once every 15 minutes or so. Its got a transparent background and looks great, but i can't work out how to set the video to play once every 15 minutes. Surely I don't make a 15 minute long video file and set it to loop??? that would make the file large and stupidly unnecessary.
I've tried adding it as a overlay on stream elements and then a browser sauce on OBS. Plays properly, but obviously doesn't loop.
I've also tried adding it directly to OBS but again, plays perfectly but can I can't get it on a timer, only play once / loop.
Does anyone know what I should do?
Use the asset rotator/slideshow in the static/custom category in the overlay editor for that.
Ah ok. Thank you

Ok
is there a way to have the alert duration variable?
Use variations.
Would someone be able to tell me here as its a pain in the OBS server
@odd kraken I'm not entirely sure how to do that with what im trying to do; I basically have half a dozen little clips that I want viewers to be able to make pop up on screen as they use a command
right now I have them set up as redeemable things in the streamelements store
so its all through the "redeem" alert
Create a stream store item, add the store redemptions widget to yoru overlay and create a custom command if you like for the items.
yea, i have it so they show up
but one clip is like 4 seconds and the next is like 10
and for the 4 second one, after the clip ends, it just sits on the last frame for 6 more seconds
until it hits the alert duration
Use gifs.
ahh, so the gif will just loop for the shorter one?
Should, yes.
will that work for the audio too?
Best to try that.
k. thanks for the tips
My follow alert works normally with sound and image
but my donation dosent
no sound or image popping up
any solutions ?
Check variations and default alert.
ok i think it should work now
there was a price of 5 dollars for a pop up even tho i had it on 1 on other settings
hi there!
I'm having an issue with the asset rotator/slideshow widget that is driving me nuts... if some could help, pleaaase! 😅😅
I have an overlay that has such kind of widget, and where I have loaded a couple of videos. Funny thing, this layer has worked normally for weeks, but... all of the sudden it stopped working, not showing any video anymore. I've tried erasing and creating again the same widget, with the same and different videos... but nothing! It's like this widget wouldn't work anymore with videos. But even funnier is that if I create another overlay with a slideshow widget with some videos, it works... but when I copy the same to other overlay I had, it's there but... again... it doesn't work at all!!!
I want to keep this same overlay, because the URL is being used among several scenes collections that I share with several streamer friends, and would like to avoid them the hassle of having to update the corresponding source in OBS
Did this happen to anyone here?
Hey guys, i wanna make something but i dunno how to do it 😦 i wanna make a starting soon that interact with the chat, when the chat spam the animation start, i know my explanation sucks but you can /w me anytime to explain more ^^

@honest sapphire well... it seems I found a workaround... so... if that could be of help to anyone... simply put at the beginning of the sequence of videos to be shown on the slideshow an animated GIF. It worked for me! 😊
but, clearly, this seems like an odd bug

Hi. My activity feed is no longer updating on the streamelements dashboard or in OBS.live. So none of my alerts are working. The Twitch activity feed is showing all my new followers.
On the website, log out and back in and also relog in OBS.Live with StreamElements > Log out and log back in. After that new events should show up.
thank you
hi my activity feed is just showing the stream elements website any way to revert it back to what i was seeing before

@odd kraken
What is your OBS Studio version you have installed?
25.0.8
Hey. I went to work and while I was gone my wife was in my office with my 18 month old running around and apparently one of the things she didn't realize he was playing with was my keyboard, during this time he not only started a live,(most boring 3+ hours you'd ever see), but he also put my stream elements into transition view, I think. I see one scene on the left with preview above and one scene on the right that says program above and I cant figure out how to get my view back to the one I had this morning before work.
Afaik there is no OBS.Live for OBSv26 by now @subtle hamlet
Select Studio Mode on the left in the controls in OBS. @reef rain
THANK YOU!

Okie. Thank youl
Is OBS and OBS.Live isntalled in your user context? Try to use admin rights to uninstall and try to restart your PC.
I cannot uninstall
I dont know where to post this but I cant get the dashboard to load. The website just keeps redirecting me to the welcome screen.

@vestal sail Please logout of StreamElements at https://streamelements.com/logout and then login again to your account (Twitch/YouTube/Facebook).
@vestal sail 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.

Hey there, I am having some trouble removing obs live from obs studio. The uninstaller seems to be stuck and isn't completing. Does anyone know how to get it to work?
Restart your PC, make sure that the installer is running with admin rights, and don't uninstall obs studio (well you need to unistall obs.live first then obs.studio if you like)
Where can I find the uninstaller exe?
Ah I found it
I had just restarted, and it seems to be getting stuck in the same place. It appears the plugin is gone from OBS, but obs live still shows up in my programs list
Hello,
I'm in need of some help please. So my custom emotes have just been approved by Twitch and for some reason it automatically started to spam "confetti" the emotes whenever someone follows, subs, donates, etc. I did not have this before and I have no idea how to disable it.
Please Help!
Is there a way to specify to the importer when I'm importing an overlay setup that's on a 720p canvas and not a 1080p canvas?
I'm asking because, at present, I can't stream at 1080p, and thus had my old overlay setups set on a 720p canvas.
(yes, I understand that I'll have to redo these overlays if I ever want to start streaming at 1080p)
Alguem me ajuda a configurar meu obs live?
My Active feed and chat will not show and cannot go live please help
@dusky vortex spam it on chat by the bot? on screen on your overlay?
@nocturne solstice i don't think you can
@prime wave StreamElements menu, on top of OBS > Logout > Login
@honest echo
On screen, on my overlay, I fixed the setting where it no longer takes over my entire screen but is contained within a box. I just don't want any multiple emotes unless it comes from the chat.
i think you're talking about the kappagen widget
@honest echo yes I think so too
and you can select which events you want it to trigger the widget
Thanks for the info, @honest echo - and fyi, the importer messes up when importing a 720p overlay.....badly.
@dusky vortex
All it is giveing me is a white screen
@prime wave Please provide a proper screenshot with the issue visible. If not sure how to take a screenshot, you can check here: https://www.take-a-screenshot.org/
@honest echo how do I get to that page, to select the settings I need?
https://streamelements.com/dashboard/overlays > select your overlay (click edit)
btw, is there proper place to report bugs like the one I encountered? At the very least I can post a screenshot of what happens when importing a 720p overlay setup from StreamLabs. 🙂
(AND of what the overlay should look like)
@honest echo ok thank you! I think I figured it out
by default the resolution of the overlays is 1920x1080, @nocturne solstice
I noticed.
But for whatever reason, the importer doesn't scale overlay images....and doesn't properly handle fonts either.
those are the problems that really need reported.
Fixing the image is trivial - just set size to "scaled" instead of "auto".
Fixing the font will require more fiddling.
note that setting scaled instead of auto for an image may only work for a full-background image (like I use).
@honest echo other question 😊
I had a lot of bots follow my account which I've deleted.
Now I'm setting up a Follower Goal to display, but Streamelements is not showing the actual # of followers I have.
Is there a way to reset this?
hey i need a bit of help finding the stream information dock
either im blind or its not showing up for me because its not in the docks tab
@dusky vortex 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.
@ocean topaz Views > Docks
the thing is its not there
Make sure to login with your twitch account (Settings > Stream)
well dang i was signed out, thanks mate!
btw, while I may have to actually use 2 bots to get what I really want, I like StreamelEments for its more minimalistic approach that uses OBS Studio and a plugin instead of rolling its own full-blown fork of OBS. 🙂
grr
Now I'm running into another problem - for some reason, when using the website interface, I cannot edit the properties of any scene. I can bring up the properties window, but clicking "submit" closes the properties window without applying any changes.
apparently this only happens for imported overlays. A newly created overlay (that is, not duplicated from an existing overlay) can have its properties changed just fine.
This makes it so that imported overlays must be exactly 1080p, because you can't edit the overlay size from within the editor, only from the properties window, as far as I can tell.
You can edit them - click on tbe 3 dots and then properties on the sub menu
It won't save for an imported scene.
That's exactly what I was doing.
Clicking submit from that dialog closes the dialog but does not save the edit.
Luckily, my scenes are custom built...and rather simple.
So recreating them is (mostly) a non-issue.
!accountid

I will check this in a bit
5ef0531b89117c0701ae034f
I still have the scenes that won't allow property editing. I WAS able to rename them from within the scene editor.
Like I said, re-creating them at 720p hasn't been a real issue, except for chat - it's not readily apparent how to get a translucent background without also getting translucent text (doing so requires using custom settings and manually setting the background and text colors, in that order).
It's easy enough once you realize that css rgb is rgb(r,g,b[,a]).
I would chalk this up to the scenes having elements in the full 1080p canvas area, except that I can't edit the scene names that way (from scene properties on the scene list) either.
The one labeled Switch Game Streaming - 1080p I haven't touched except to rename it from within the editor.
I might actually end up streaming with that 720p-marked overlay later, depending on whether a DWR race starts up.
wait so the imported overlay is SWITCH GAME STREAMING - 1080P?
That's one of them.
The other is the unmarked Retro Streaming overlay.
Neither can be edited from the properties dialog on the scene/overlay list.
ahh.
The "retro" one is currently pretty specific to Dragon Warrior...the switch one...that's generic. 🙂
anyway, thanks for the help. 🙂

Is there anyway to use OBS.Live for YouTube and Twitch interchangeably without having to log in and out of the StreamElements tab every time I switch platforms?
We do not have a restream support, meaning that OBS.Live only accepts 1 logged in account.
I don't mean at the same time. should have specified. I have separate scenes and profile for Twitch and YouTube but for the Activity feed and chat to swap I have to log in and out every time. I mostly use Twitch so I tried adding the YouTube Chat as a Custom browser dock which partially worked but if I add the Events list manually from my YouTube connected StreamElements Activity feed it still displays Twitch stuff for some reason. Sorry for the long winded explanation.
You will have to logout and login everytime - there is no easy way to switch for OBS.Live
Alrighty. any idea why the event list would still show Twitch events despite being a direct link to the Youtube activity feeds popout?
It can bug out a bit sometimes or the session might just go stale
simply logging out and logging back in fixes it
No.
Hello , I got an issue with Media requests in obs live, every time I refresh the widgets it's like this
