hey is there any chance someone can help me please. I am creating some things for stream at the moment but I believe I will need to use custom code for it and have no idea what i am doing. I would really appreciate it, Thankyou in advance šŸ™‚

Hey guys. New to streaming. Im wondering how to make it so. The people viewing my stream can also hear the in game chat? I have a separate microphone. Which is the input for the stream. My microphone for gaming is my headset. How do I make it so the viewers can hear the people I'm gaming with. Sorry in advance. Long msg

late furnace
#

dilly you was answered in #helpdesk-twitch Please Do not post one question in different channels. Thank you!

sweet grotto
#

Isn't this where the bot told me to go. Which is the response I'm assuming your referring to.

late furnace
#

no, it told you to go to OBS support for audio help

#

are you on pc or console?

sweet grotto
#

My bad. I see it now. Sorry

late furnace
#

you're good, its just when you post in multi channels it confuses the ppl that are willing to help

sweet grotto
#

No worries.

late furnace
#

if on pc try this

steel bladeBOT
late furnace
#

if this dos not work then you wil have to ask the audio experts over in the OBS discord

sweet grotto
#

Beauty thanks!

late furnace
#

Welcome

#

but if youre using a capture on console often you will need a splitter

Still best to ask there for support with game/screen capture.

ocean swan
#

How do I stream Valorant while I have overlays?

#

Cus thats the problem

odd kraken
#

Add a game capture source to your OBS scene.

unkempt quiver
#

Hi is this internet good enough for streaming

odd kraken
unkempt quiver
#

Where can i see whether or not this internet is good enough

odd kraken
#

There are internet speeds listed in the link.

unkempt quiver
#

Are there?

#

I only see what bitrate to use while streaming

odd kraken
#

That is the recommended upload.

unkempt quiver
#

so bitrate:6000

#

I have upload mbps 16.99

Why is it not working to capture valorant while I have overlays?

Hello. I am not entirely sure where I need to go, so please forgive if this is not the right area.. I've been trying to figure out the audio input/output/sources between StreamElements and OBS Studio. I've watched many videos and am extremely confused with where to adjust settings. In a Stream Elements Media Requset video, I am seeing the Stream Elements website interface with "Media Request" on the left side but I don't have that in my view.....

ocean swan
#

I have a problem with media request, it won't show up on stream even if I have the engagement in my overlay

green pivot
#

how do i add on my overlay from the s.e website???

steel bladeBOT
#

@green pivot 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

odd kraken
#

@ocean swan Try to delete the widget, save the overlay, add it again and save the overlay again. Then try to play the media request on stream.

#

@elfin nimbus The MediaRequest dock is available via StreamElements > Media Request in OBS.Live.

ocean swan
#

still not working

#

but it worked like 10 mins ago

odd kraken
#

Try to readd the overaly to your OBS.

ocean swan
#

still not working

steel bladeBOT
#

@ocean swan StreamElements menu, on top of OBS > Logout > Login

ocean swan
#

Working now

#

Thank you

elfin nimbus
#

My main problem is that I'd like the Media Request to be visible/audible to the audience, but not to me. I want to hear my chat (text to voice) and the game I play over the music. I've either had it not play at all, or play where I hear it too, and now as I think about it I wonder if the audience is actually hearing it through my mic

#

I've added the Media Request widget to my theme, but now to fix the audio portion

mighty moth
#

I’m currently having a problem with my host and raid alerts showing up in stream. I’ve had someone host me and raid me but nothing shows up. If I emulate a host or raid it works but that’s it. Any help is greatly appreciated.

elfin nimbus
#

I have heard of similair issues with mine that @mighty moth mentioned as well

steel bladeBOT
#

@mighty moth 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.

mighty moth
#

Ok so then my buddy hosting or raiding me with no viewers will not trigger my host/raid alerts.

elfin nimbus
#

Ok, new question... How can I get the Media Request to use a VIrtual Audio cable instead?

mighty moth
#

I also haven’t even seen any notice at all that someone is hosting me

Ok, so this is probably something really obvious. But i've created an asset role with three videos (social media animations). They work and show up in the preview on Streamelements editor online. But when i take the browser link into OBS everything else shows up, but the asset role doesn't start. How do i make it appear?

Hey! I have a problem with OBS.live and Youtube Gaming. I streamed for the first time yesterday and got about 30 new subs. None of the subs appeared on the Activity Feed and the chat never connected in OBS.
I had to use the chat on youtube.
Anyone know right away what I could have done wrong? It works with twitch feed and chat, but when I log out and log in to YT it doesn't work.

Hey guys..my obs.live is doing this weird thing that when i open it only one of my cameras is showing..i have to go manually deactivate both..activate my primary webcam and then reactivate the secondary in order to show video. My antivirus is not the problem cause i tried closing it...(cause its kaspersky and it does things like that). The other strange think is that in the source of my secondary cam i can change it to see my main..but only on that one source that works from the begging.

trail eagle
#

anyone know how to successfully rename the SE bot to the streamer's name? as soon as i set mine the bot stops working all together

cursive kiln
#

how do you change the bots name

trail eagle
#

In OBS

cursive kiln
#

ok thx

steel bladeBOT
#

@trail eagle 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.

Can't seem to uninstall obs live to try and reinstall it

#

constant error

trail eagle
#

i will try that TY

honest echo
#

in order to uninstal obs.live (the add-on) you need to keep OBS Studio on your PC

#

if you unistall obs studio first, you won't be able to unistall obs.live

low horizon
#

obs studio still on

honest echo
#

If you didn't unistall obs studio, try to install obs.live again on a different folder and then unistall it

low horizon
#

ok

trail eagle
#

it wont allow me to add that to the end of the target field

honest echo
#

@trail eagle make sure to not miss the space after the path, something like this: .exe" --remote

trail eagle
#

okay

#

that part worked ty

#

i did everything and selected to change it to my name. sent test message, but nothing

Why does it keep lagging my obs out? It keeps crashing

rugged kernel
#

I have a problem with streamelements and OBS.

issue
I have created an asset role which has three videos.

  • the videos all run perfectly in the preview screen on streamelements
  • if I back out of the overlay and re enter it, the videos don't start playing until I change one of the settings in asset role.
  • the videos don't play in OBS via the browser link

What am I doing wrong? Why won't my assets start cycling through on the asset role?

It's really starting to wind me up! Is it something in the css code on OBS? Please help!

honest echo
#

@rugged kernel That's a know issue already reported, working on it

rugged kernel
#

Ah at least it's not me and I'm not going crazy !!!!!

cursive kiln
#

Why does it keep lagging my obs out? It keeps crashing

honest echo
#

lagging or crashing?

#

for lagging:

steel bladeBOT
#

@cursive kiln 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.

honest echo
#

For crashing:

  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?

  1. Repeat steps 1 and 2
  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
  3. 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.

hi guys im having issues with my stream store redemption alerts.

I cant seem to get them to show up on my screen even though its on top, and the items have alerts turned on. It wont show up even when i test it through the browser overlay editor for streamelements.

It DOES HOWEVER show up if i go to the sources properties and click "Open in StreamElements Overlay Editor" and test the Alert there. So im not sure what is going on.

#

also it doesnt show up when trying to redeem in the store online or in the twitch chat as well

#

no audio either

So...is there any timeline for OBS.Live to come out with an update to match OBS Studio's 26.x update?

The first time, I asked when 26 came out and got a "not sure." I asked again, a few days ago, when 26.0.2 dropped...and didn't get any response at all. So, I asked in #general-chat just now and had my question unceremoniously deleted and referred back over here. So I'm asking AGAIN: is there any timeline on when we'll see OBS.Live updated to match OBS Studio?

The reason I'm so keen to know is that I'm in the Twitch Soundtrack beta and I can't properly test it because OBS.Live hasn't updated everything to integrate/match OBS Studio 26.x. Right now, I'm having to use a Virtual Audio Cable as a workaround and it's a bit frustrating. Almost as frustrating as being ignored when asking a proper question.

kindred fox
#

If I were home I’d test this

#

Afaik obs.live updated with obs26.0.2

#

And shouldn’t fuck with the base obs

#

The twitch soundtrack beta shouldn’t interfere with obs.live

#

Every time I’ve updated obs and closed it it required an obs.live update

hi. so I imported my streamlabs alertbox to the streamelements overlay editor. I was able to adjust it to the way I like it but for some reason the text for the subscriber alert does not want to move. I don't know how to fix this and I'm pretty new to this program. Any help would be appreciated.

Check the overlay editor and move the box

what's the difference + advantages of obs.live ?

I would say after watching Alpha Gaming that OBS.Live with StreamElements allows you to customize a bit more with stuff like custom widgets and stuff like that

I really need help, my chats activity does not show my cheers, the alert for my cheers also does not work, and it does not show in my revenue history. Everything else works fine, it is only when I receive bits. My account ID is 5eac30ae65bfee16f0919d9a

I’ve tried to reach out this this discord for this same issue and I was told I must have accidentally deleted it but I know for a fact I did not delete them.

@rugged quail Yes, OBS.Live is a plugin for OBS Studio, not its own software.

#

@timber monolith Do you have a screenshot of the last time you received a cheer?

rugged quail
#

@tulip hamlet Thank you. I won’t try to uninstall OBS again in that case. If I want to use the plug-in do I have to use the shortcut it created or can I simply load OBS itself?

from my stream 2 day’s ago it is on 1:30:35, he used sound bits, but there was another moment my friend sent 500 bits that I cannot find because it did not notify me through chat or my alert.

Hi, I've been having an issue with the Asset Rotator/Slideshow widget in OBS. I was using it to show off Twitch Clips for the past month but about a week ago it suddenly stopped working. Can't get it to work for the life of me. I tried manually refreshing the source, triple checking to see if I was using the right URL for the source (which it was), as well as starting over fresh by removing the old browser source and then adding a new one with the proper URL for the widget and I still get nothing. Not sure what else I should try. Any thoughts?

You can check if your webcam has an option to capture in 16:9 but if it doesn't then there's no "changing" it, you either get a new border or a new webcam. (I recommend the border, it's cheaper)

Hello!

Problem: My alerts are heaps delayed on stream. For example, someone follows, and I don't hear the alert for maybe a minute or two. I rely heavily on the alert sounds to know when things are going on in stream. Can anyone help me? Thanks!

TLDR: I have scoured the internet as well as this server for an answer to my question and I can't seem to find something that resolves it - someone in the Spanish channel seems to have had a similar problem, but I couldn't find their solution, and it sounds like they are streaming to FB so that might be different.

#

Hello, i'm having issues with OBS as it keeps disconnecting and reconnecting

steel bladeBOT
#

@muted orchid 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.

muted orchid
steel bladeBOT
#

@muted orchid 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+.

@muted orchid Looks like an issue with your connection, perhaps related to the fact you're on wi-fi. If possible, get on an ethernet connection.

Didn’t know where to ask this but is there a way to make the !flip command work for the viewers to play on StreamElements? It’s kind of a game where you flip a coin and win or lose.

Do you expect them to get something for winning or lose something for losing?

midnight bloom
#

Yes. They’ll win or lose Loyalty points

Not possible then.

Well, I suppose there's the !roulette module.

Not a coin flip but close enough.

Hi, I am still having an issue with the Asset Rotator/Slideshow widget in OBS. I was using it to show off Twitch Clips for the past month but about a week ago it suddenly stopped working. Can't get it to work for the life of me. I tried manually refreshing the source, triple checking to see if I was using the right URL for the source (which it was), as well as starting over fresh by removing the old browser source and then adding a new one with the proper URL for the widget and I get nothing. Then as suggested by @tulip hamlet I tried both disabling then restarting the Browser Source Hardware Acceleration as well as enabling then restating it and I still get nothing

#

And we are still having issues with the widget not playing videos. As in, we have not yet fixed the issue.

Good Morning. Is there a way to configure the window size and position, on a multi-monitor system, of the Stream Elements chat window in OBS Live via a config file? In previous versions this window retained this information, but it seems to to be completely agnostic and random any time I open it now.

#

Hello, I want to setup a followers goal but the overlay shows a wrong number of my follower count. How can I fix that?

steel bladeBOT
#

@real current 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.

Just to make sure:
Do you mean in OBS or on the SE website?

rugged quail
#

SE website

#

I’m logged in on OBS myself on his computer. (He uses streamlabs so in order for us to easily hop between who’s streaming, I use OBS)

#

It’s just when I tried to log into SE with my twitch. It automatically detected his and logged him in.

steel mural
#

ohh alrighty. Because for OBS, you could use different scenes/sources. It's actually quite similar. You can connect multiple Google accounts in Chrome so you both should have different logins, bookmarks, passwords etc. But that's a bit out of scope for the support we provide here šŸ˜„

rugged quail
#

It’s okay, I’m quite technical

#

Hmm... I should be doing my home working but I’m going to give that a try. One of my google accounts is already logged on his pc as I use it to access my drive for the overlays.

#

Thank you C: if it doesn’t work then I’ll wait for him to get back from work himself to ask.

steel mural
#

I never tried it so I'm not sure if it works like I mentioned, but feel free to tell us if it's working. Would be a nice workaround for "multiple accounts / one PC" situations ^^

nothing for my question here?

#

No way to configure SE chat window via config file?

steel mural

Not that I'm aware of. But you can use the Twitch chat from OBS itself via View -> Docks -> Chat and see if the issue persists.
If you don't see "Chat", go to Settings -> Stream and connect your account there.

hardy bay
#

@steel mural is there a value to using one chat vs the other? I've wondered why SE has it's own chat menu item.

steel mural

They're pretty much the same. The SE one has a small reload icon in the top left, but vanilla OBS browser docks can also be reloaded with Ctrl+R

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

I got you man

#

Right click your webcam.

#

Stretch to screen,then resize

#

which will stop the 4:3 aspect ratio

#

OR

#

You can add a filter to the bottom of your webcam

#

and crop it to 16:9 aspect ratio

#

OR

#

option 3.

#

you could rightclick your Webcam frame stretch to screen, then size the frame around the camera

#

which would keep the 4:3 aspect ratio

so i have custom alerts that im trying to put into OBS and i put the URL in OBS fine and when i emulate a follow for example, itll play the default alert AND my custom alert at the same time. how do i delete or cancel the default alert??

Check your variations or for duplicate alert boxes

drowsy pelican

yea i changed all my variations to the custom but it still plays the default. it even does it with raids where there arent any variations

kindred fox
#

Did you check the box for ā€œshutdown source when inactiveā€ for your other overlays in other scenes?

upper oak
#

@drowsy pelican If you created your custom alert inside the same browser link as the default ones you'll have to remove them via the streamelements widget editor on their website

you may have 2 events going off from the same source

@tulip hamlet I'm going through that menu, and I can see ways of toggling the Chat and Activity Feed displays on and off. I don't see any way to connect them to a new Twitch channel, though.

The best I could offer is maybe try going to the streamelements website and go to your settings and add a new twitch channel to your acocunt?

#

@gleaming quiver We generally do not comment on our roadmap so no.

#

@sharp pumice There's an "automatic" way but it's far from being good. The best way would be to just mute the audio track in the OBS audio mixer with something like a StreamDeck.

#

Or hotkeys, in case you don't have one

sharp pumice
#

@steel mural i have a streamdeck, didnt know you could do that thx!

#

Not sure what you mean. OBS doesn't have any fonts. You have to install them into windows

steel bladeBOT
#

Google Fonts
More than 900 google fonts are supported at this time. You can preview them here: https://fonts.google.com/

Custom Fonts

Steps:

  1. Install the font on the streaming PC or choose a pre-installed windows font.
  2. In the overlay widget settings, select Text Settings
  3. Click on Enable Custom Font
  4. 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.

I have a question

valid seal
#

No clue how to integrate these overlays into my stream on OBS.... Ive edited and uploaded them into my sources but I cant get it to work for my stream....

steel bladeBOT
#

@valid seal 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

I'm getting the white screen with only the help button on my browser for the stream elements website. I've cleared cache, I've ctrl shift r, neither fixes the problem. Any suggestions?

valid seal
#

I've already added these overlays but they dont adapt to my stream at all.

@rugged quail The default resolution for StreamElements overlays (theme and custom) is 1920x1080. Please add them in OBS at their full resolution and use CTRL+F to fit to screen if necessary. You can then downscale your stream in OBS settings > Video if you'd like https://i.imgur.com/6bWXxjR.png

That didnt work either

steel bladeBOT

@slim sun 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).

OBS isn't saving my Configure Video settings for my cameras when I shut the software down. I changed all my webcams to gray scale by reducing the (saturation camera>properties>Configure Video>Saturation to 1). I works fine until I close OBS. When I reopen OBS the saturation levels are back to default. How do I get OBS to save my Saturation level or how do I change the video input to grayscale?

Not sure where this fits into these categories.. So I'll drop it here for now šŸ¤”

I've been trying to load into the website for hours, it was doing the same thing last night but after a couple or reloads it worked fine.. I can't load into streamelements.com whatsoever, it'll just sit there infinitely loading.. Is there any easy fix to this??

I cant clear cookies from my browser because I can't currently login to my Twitch account again if I were to get logged out.
I cant use another browser for the same reason.

Any ideas? Or will I just need to wait til I can get into my twitch acc.

#

Every other website works totally fine as well, it's only streamelements

I'm having issues and I'm not sure where it should go. Today I tried to stream and my bitrate was all over the place causing me to drop 30 percent of my frames. All speed tests and connection tests show as good and I've already checked with my ISP and everything is showing good on their end. Do I need to uninstall OBS.Live and then re install or could it be something else?

steel bladeBOT
#

@unreal jolt 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.

tulip hamlet
#

Yeah, this is only caused by your connection, nothing in OBS.

#

Bear in mind a speed test is not an accurate indication of your connection. It gets the speed by establishing multiple connections.

unreal jolt
#

Well this is definitely disheartening. Is there anything I can try or do? My ISP told me that they did maintenance last night, maybe I have to factory reset my router again?

@buoyant dock 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.

buoyant dock
#

But this looks wrong!

steel bladeBOT
#

@buoyant dock 1) Restart OBS
2) Start your stream/recording for about 30 seconds. Make sure you replicate any issues as best you can, which means having any games/apps open and captured, etc.
3) Stop your stream/recording.
4) Select Help > Log Files > Upload Current Log File. Copy the URL and paste the link here.

Note: If you do not see an obsproject.com URL, you will need to update OBS Studio to version 22+.

@lilac ocean https://obsproject.com/logs/iitWHJtx93vT45t5
Hi, I had to cancel my stream of a VERY IMPORTANT EVENT tonight (OSIRIS REx) because of the stupid OBS dropping all 80% frames in render and hogging 100% CPU all the time ...

  • Sources and Stream Setup is EXACTLY the same as I used before, and had no issues with it before
  • Task Manager showed about 40 OBS Browser Source processes, even though I made sure I turned off all Browser sources manually (from the eye and from the SHUT DOWN source when not visible)
  • I am streaming 1080p (from NASA) and I am using a SERVER computer (It should be able to stream 4k with no trouble) it used to hardly use 4% of CPU for the same setup!

Help me figure this out, is this related to some recent OBS.live update? or OBS update? or is it something I did wrong?

viral knot
#

Hi @steel blade

lilac ocean
#

yhea its useless because it doesnt have an output session

#

make sure to record/stream longer than 30 seconds

buoyant dock
#

I did for 5 mins

#

but it does show the problem

lilac ocean
#

"Hi, I had to cancel my stream of a VERY IMPORTANT EVENT tonight (OSIRIS REx) because of the stupid OBS dropping all 80% frames in render and hogging 100% CPU all the time ... "
^dropping frames is due to Internet issues

buoyant dock
#

I can explain exactly what happened trust me pls.... 80% render lag ... 40 OBS Browser Source Processes in Task Manager ... 100% CPU. All sources OFF, with shut down sources when not visible for all

#

No internet is 1Gbps

#

I am using a Server

steel bladeBOT
#

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.

buoyant dock
#

80% frames dropped for render lag not internet ... it was 100% CPU hogged by 40 Browser Sources for some reason

#

Trust me please I know what I am talking about here ... I keep statistics open at all time

Alright, be sure to try the log again

it doesn't show the issue

even WITHOUT streaming or recording ... the CPU usage is 100%

it doesnt actually show anything in the log since no output session

buoyant dock
#

with all sources off

#

I know

#

even without output

#

it is 100% CPU

#

try relogging like i mentioned before

Without an output it won’t log any issues

@kindred fox I exactly told you this before the log! I told you what processes where using CPU!

About 40 OBS Browser Source Processes using CPU at once

My suggestion would be to shutdown all browser sources when inactive in the browser source properties, and make sure that you utilize only one overlay per scene

Yes, even then.

More than just your setup is capable of changing.

@kindred fox If you read my message you will know I already did that

Hey everyone....I am having issues with the rotator widget on streamelements. I created the widget on stream elements and imported the url into my browser. The webm file will not show up. I have other browsers using webm files and they are showing up fine. Trying to figure out what the issue is..any thoughts? I have watched every YT video on fixes and to no avail...

#

@charred acorn 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.

Question about Audio Devices, thanks ahead of time for the help.
Using OBS.Live for the software. I have the PS4 Pro Gold Wireless Headset. The dongle keeps the audio device active even when the headset is not connected so I never have connection or use issues. Just switched to SE from SL and previously OBS and have never had an issue until now.

#

It does not peak the meter when speaking

It does everywhere else except OBS.Live

Hi I was using SE OBS live for a couple weeks and its suddenly crashes every time I try to open. Ive tried uninstalling and reinstalling and also changing the compatibility setting and it still crashing right after launching.

#

Would appreciate some guidance on how to fix this issue

steel bladeBOT
#

@broken breach 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.

broken breach
steel bladeBOT
#

@broken breach 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?

  1. Repeat steps 1 and 2
  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
  3. 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.

@civic needle 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. Log out of the bot account in the custom bot options, make sure the option to "Connect Custom Account" is available.
  2. Change the bot to StreamElements and click Save.
  3. Log out of OBS.Live (click the top where it says StreamElements and click log out)
  4. Log back into OBS.Live
  5. Go back to the custom bot name option and choose custom bot account.
  6. Link your custom bot account back and save.

After changing my name on twitch, the StreamElement robot no longer hangs out on my stream, and doesn't see commands. How can i fix this ;D

#

Btw i love streamelements, thank you guys for creating this

hardy gull
#

Are custom named bots not working?

sharp turret
#

@serene flicker 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).
serene flicker
#

Thank you so much! Will try to do that. ;D

#

It works! thanks. God im dumb hahaha

sharp turret
#

@hardy gull If your commands recently stopped working and you're using OBS.Live and a custom bot name do the following:

  1. In OBS.Live, click on the hamburger menu (three stripes) at the top left of your activity feed
  2. Click on Stream Settings > Custom bot name
  3. In the Custom bot name field select Set custom bot name, not your already existing username (with capital letters). Note: If you already connected an account that way, the third entry will show as the account name (see image https://i.imgur.com/sO7fWOX.png).
  4. Scroll a bit down and click on the purple Connect Custom Bot Account button
  5. Log in as usual and Authorize the custom bot name
  6. Back in the Activity feed, click on the Send Test Message button and check if your custom bot name starts working again
#

@serene flicker Can you post your old username and new for chatstats?

serene flicker
#

uh sure

#

Old: ImDoodzi
new: Doodzi

Can you exclude certain audio sources from a recording in OBS?

I want to have music playing when I stream on Twitch, but don't want it playing when I upload the video to YouTube

Thank you! Sorry about being off-topic, wasn't sure if this was the right channel but I thought OBS=obslive

Haha, I think it's alright. I just read the channel topic.

Hi so i have no idea what im doing and need help getting things started.

frozen jewel
#

Every time I load OBS.live OBS studio 26.0.2 will crash (happened with 25). I'll still be able to access the menus and have to go to the Stream Elements Menu at the top, log out and then use task manager to force close OBS studio with obs.live After that obs.live/studio will re-open, i can then login and reconnect to twitch and then and only then can I stream. This happens every day. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Hey @rugged quail Are you here?

#

Lemme help you out

#

Now, are you able to show me a screenshot of your issue?

#

Do you have snipping tool on your PC?

#

Alrighty

#

Now if I understand you correctly, you want to add that to OBS? Right?

#

You can download it right here https://obsproject.com/download

#

You need OBS Studio to add that overlay

#

Yes, to add the overlay

#

Why not?

#

Why can you now download it?

#

Oh, Im sorry to hear that

@rugged quail how old are you? mentally, I mean.

rugged quail
#

@warped coral what is the issue with ur camera setup?

#

does the program just not recognise it?

#

@rugged quail I really don't. I'm just trying to make you understand you're acting immature.

warped coral
#

it recognises it but wont capture any video

rugged quail
#

that is odd. what kind of camera is it?

warped coral
#

logi pro stream

rugged quail
#

oh wow that sounds fancy. xD I'm only used to my laptop's integrated webcam... umm welp if the software recognises it then I guess there's no trouble with the connection between the camera and the PC, etc

warped coral
#

im not sure if its the overlay or not

@rugged quail Stop that. No one will donate just because you spam your link in here

prime vector
rugged quail
#

ummm why would you want to scaled an entire video into a box which is a mere 100 pixels in height?

#

you'd have to crop the video to a mere slice of it

prime vector
rugged quail
#

otherwise it'll be super squished and it will look horrible

prime vector
#

it should look like this

rugged quail
#

ooooooh it's a small video to being with

prime vector
#

ahhh

rugged quail
#

gotcha... what software are you using to edit the video?

prime vector
#

well I have to contact my editor then

rugged quail
#

there should be an option to change the resolution of the video somewhere

prime vector
#

yeaaaa

rugged quail
#

oh you are not editing it yourself...

prime vector
#

I think he sent me the wrong one

#

yea I paid a commission for it, kinda nice

rugged quail
#

I forget some people don't actually take it upon themselves to do all this stuff themselves. like me, an ambitious, overly optimistic idiot with very bad time management skills.

#

I've been trying to make my own overlay from scratch for months xD

#

How do I get the following notifications and other bars on the left and right side of OBSLive

#

@rugged quail do u mean the docks on the program's interface? I think you can just drag them around the place

kindred fox
#

@rugged quail click streamelements > docks > activity feed

rugged quail
#

^what they said

#

Thank ill let you know if it works

kindred fox
#

@prime vector once you have the final video you can add the video to your alert via the alert box settings for the appropriate events and it will auto-scale for the video.

prime vector

cheers ā¤ļø

does anyone have an idea why i cant get my camera to capture anything on my overlay?

Is there a way to remove that message from OBSlive? The one that constantly pops up saying "This is a great time to talk about your merch store!"

sharp turret

Please delete the screenshot because of overlay url.

full thunderBOT
#

@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

sharp turret
#

Then paste to browser source.

magic walrus
#

i have done that\

#

literally there should be a widgets page but its not there idk why

sharp turret
#

You can see it in overlay editor

#

not on mine\

A friend wants me to stream on his channel and has invited me through Twitch to do so. I've received the stream key email, but I can't figure out where to put it in OBS.Live, I just usually sign into my Twitch. Any ideas? Thanks!

tulip hamlet
#

Sign out in Settings>Stream.

gusty vessel
#

@tulip hamlet I don't have their Twitch username or password, just the stream key. Will that be enough?

tulip hamlet
#

Yes, though you won't get any of their activity or data in the OBS.Live docks.

Hey starfam.. Having some serious trouble.. Trying to stream right now. But my OBS will not open/load. I did a reset turned my pc off. I then Uninstalled Obs, and then reinstalled it. But it now says "woops, OBS has crashed" I'm sooooooooo lost!!!! Anyone have any suggestions. I'm about to call it quits and go to Stream labs
[3:48 PM]
Annnnnd I really don't wanna use Steam labs... AT ALL haha

gusty vessel
#

@tulip hamlet Okay, that should be fine. I will still be able to use my StreamElements overlay URL, right?

tulip hamlet
#

Yes, but it will be based on your data, not theirs.

full thunderBOT
#

@fluid zodiac 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.

@tulip hamlet Got it. Thank you.

ok i can't find the solution to my problem anywhere. this is exactly whats going on. I have OBS studio and OBSLive both installed, sperate folders, different desktop icons, etc. every time i open obslive , it ONLY AND ALWAYS opens up the regular obs studios. i've tried running as Admin, opening for containing file folder, and even reinstalling obslive and running it directly from SE website.
Is something going on, where obs just trumps obs live for some reason? i literally have never seen this happen before

full thunderBOT

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

tulip hamlet
#

@woven meadow The import extension is a Chrome extension, not anything that appears on the site itself. Once it's installed, it's in the top right of your Chrome window.

worldly dagger
#

So I just installed a new MOBO/CPU today and when I went to stream it's saying Failed to Connect To Server, when I go to the settings, I am not able to even change the IP

woven meadow
#

right i do have it installed but in streamelements it still says install instead of import and redirects me to the google webpage for the tool @tulip hamlet

tulip hamlet
#

Once it's installed, again, you don't do anything in the website itself any more. That import menu doesn't ever change. You only work through the extension icon that's part of your browser itself.
