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
dilly you was answered in #helpdesk-twitch Please Do not post one question in different channels. Thank you!
Isn't this where the bot told me to go. Which is the response I'm assuming your referring to.
My bad. I see it now. Sorry
you're good, its just when you post in multi channels it confuses the ppl that are willing to help
No worries.
if on pc try this
@sweet grotto 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.
https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/199460642975907840/685371800456134686/unknown.png
if this dos not work then you wil have to ask the audio experts over in the OBS discord
Beauty thanks!
I just changed my pc graphics settings so obs is using my nvidia graphics card and now my streamelements overlays don't work. Anyone have any ideas?

I need help with streaming valorant, I don't know how to capture it cus it won't show up in my obs
@ocean swan For the best OBS support, please join their Official Discord @ discord.gg/obsproject
obs.live
Still best to ask there for support with game/screen capture.
Add a game capture source to your OBS scene.
Where can i see whether or not this internet is good enough
There are internet speeds listed in the link.
That is the recommended upload.
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.....
I have a problem with media request, it won't show up on stream even if I have the engagement in my overlay
how do i add on my overlay from the s.e website???
@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
@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.
Try to readd the overaly to your OBS.
still not working
@ocean swan StreamElements menu, on top of OBS > Logout > Login
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
Iām currently having a problem with my host and raid alerts showing up in stream. Iāve had someone host me and raid me but nothing shows up. If I emulate a host or raid it works but thatās it. Any help is greatly appreciated.
I have heard of similair issues with mine that @mighty moth mentioned as well
@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.
Ok so then my buddy hosting or raiding me with no viewers will not trigger my host/raid alerts.
Ok, new question... How can I get the Media Request to use a VIrtual Audio cable instead?
I also havenāt even seen any notice at all that someone is hosting me
After changing bot name in OBS Studio to MY name (for emote usage purposes) the bot doesn't work at all. When i change it back to StreamElements, the bot works, but can't use my emotes (obviously) Can anyone help??
so i'm streaming and i got a sub but it didn't pick up it works for followers,dono's,and bits, but it didn't pick up the subs? and this is about the alert box and the activity feed any idea how to fix it
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?
Hello All, i have installed the web plugin and its not showing up on my obs. anyone had this issue before and know a fix?
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.
were will my imports for scenes show up at?
hello my bot is having issues
it thinks everything is "* * *"
what does that indicate?
That the bot isn't mod on your channel
how do I manage the bot
wdym? could you elaborate?
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.
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
how do you change the bots name
ok thx
@rugged quail For the best OBS support, please join their Official Discord @ discord.gg/obsproject
@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.
i will try that TY
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
obs studio still on
If you didn't unistall obs studio, try to install obs.live again on a different folder and then unistall it
ok
it wont allow me to add that to the end of the target field
@trail eagle make sure to not miss the space after the path, something like this: .exe" --remote
okay
that part worked ty
i did everything and selected to change it to my name. sent test message, but nothing
how do you import scenes from the website once they are copied
add a browser source to your obs
and make sure to add the correct resolution to the browser source
try this ⤵ļø
@trail eagle StreamElements menu, on top of OBS > Logout > Login
lol okay
how do u add browser source can u screenshot pls
@soft urchin 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
Hi anyone know how to fix this when i push the buttom START STREAMING im getting this error an encoder error occurred while streaming obs
@silk zenith For the best OBS support, please join their Official Discord @ discord.gg/obsproject
Why does it keep lagging my obs out? It keeps crashing
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!
@rugged kernel That's a know issue already reported, working on it
Ah at least it's not me and I'm not going crazy !!!!!
Why does it keep lagging my obs out? It keeps crashing
@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.
For crashing:
- 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.
its ok now
Hi ! I have an issue with my commands and the timer system, I've either custom and default commands but they didn't work, for example if a viewer suggests a music by mediarequest, it doesn't work and this is the same for the timer system, the message don't shows every x time! Thank You for helping me!
I'm not sure if I'm helping with this but make sure that you have their permissions turned on in your https://streamelements.com/dashboard/bot-commands/default-commands
@versed trout How can I turned on permissions pls?
you need to have the bot enabled

This one?
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
This one?
@mighty charm this one
Perfect It works! Thanks @versed trout
hi i need some help, i recorded something earlier with obs, and i had it in my files, but now matter where i look its gone, is there anything i can do to recover the file?

ahh okay audio is completely fixed but the Alert wont show up unless i open the properties of its source and click the edit in streamelements overlay editor and use the Emulate button to test it

when I go live the screen is with these black bands on the sides
Your resolution is incorrect
Canvas resolution should be 1920x1080 and output resolution should be 1280x720
I just finished my overlay and copied and pasted it into the media source on obs.. and nothing is showing up did I do something wrong? (the media source is above everything else btw)
Do I need to download it?

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.
If I were home Iād test this
Afaik obs.live updated with obs26.0.2
And shouldnāt fuck with the base obs
The twitch soundtrack beta shouldnāt interfere with obs.live
Every time Iāve 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
Iām in the Taco Bell drive through so I cannot guarantee it will work
got a question: how do i add a chatbox overlay?
@kindred fox the problem is in the editor itself. I was able to move the text for the other alerts but the subscriber one won't for some reason
Unlock it @fading garden ?
wdym by unlock?
@lament monolith You can try again, only without tagging anyone
Good morning guys, can someone help me?
I've been trying to delete my account for a long time and I can't, it says that my username is wrong.
hello
i am using SLOBS for a long time but i wanted to swtich to OBS
but i saw obs.live,
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
hmm allright
hello, just downloaded and trying to add an overlay to my stream, but everytime I paste the URL the overlay is WAY to big
Ive tried adjusting resolutions with no luck

Alright next question, I am in the middle of setting up and when I go live to test a few things there is an 8 second sound loop. And it will keep looping whatever it heard last.
I am setting up my obs for the first time and for some reason unknown to me and another streamer friend, I am unable to see my overlays in OBS (I just get a white screen) but when I screen share on discord it shows the overlay that I added. Please help.
whats the current version of OBS that obs.live supports?
I've got a strange question - hoping someone might either have an answer, or can direct me somewhere to find it...
...wait a second - let me check something...
...nevermind - I found my answer. Sorry for the disturbance.
anytime i go live on my obs its always delayed and it tells me to turn down my video settings, where would i find those
so uh. idk if im just dumb but ive tried installing an eq plugin and it wont show up
for some reason obs live chat is not working for me? does anyone known a solution to fix it? or have dealt with the same issue?
have you tried pressing reload?
@unreal swan im having the same issue today, cannot get a stable bitrate and my upload speed on speed test is 35mbps
so many time, weird thing is when i pop out chat on twitch dashboard it still loads
Does anyone know why replaying alerts using the OBS.Live doesn't work? I click the button, see the animation, but no alert. I tried both offline and while I'm live and nothing. I've also made sure StreamElements has permission to my channel and it's a moderator. Is there anything else I am missing?

In order for OBS live to work, do you still need the original OBS?
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
Iāve 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?
@tulip hamlet Thank you. I wonāt 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 dayās 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. My friend is the reason why I realized it was not working at all. But when I check my alerts in overlays, it only shows through top cheer list
@rugged quail Either's fine.
@tulip hamlet Thank you C: now I need to copy everything across to my boyfriends PC since thatās where I do most of my streaming
@timber monolith Did you recently change your Twitch username?

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?
need help getting it to fit plz.
You're trying to fit a 4:3 camera feed into a 16:9 border. Either you need to do some cropping or you need a different border.
I'm going to assume my issue is tough to solve?
@hearty dome Did you update a week ago?
how do i change the ratios?
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)
I updated it on the 7th and the issue came into being on the 15th
@hearty dome 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)

We unfortunately can't tell you how to work your camera for you.
You'll need to figure that out on your own.
you cant point me in the right direction to where that setting could be found?
thank you for your time and for what you guys do! your amazing people
No, there are countless webcams available and we can't memorize them all.

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.
When I tried to stream my chat was unable to hear me but could hear everything else in game š

Hello, i'm having issues with OBS as it keeps disconnecting and reconnecting
@hardy tulip For the best OBS support, please join their Official Discord @ discord.gg/obsproject
@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 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.
Got it thank you
Didnāt know where to ask this but is there a way to make the !flip command work for the viewers to play on StreamElements? Itās 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?

hi i'm getting an error that says "We could not create a Live Stream on YouTube." I've tried logging out and doublechecking my streamkey and server and even reinstalling
this has worked before
ah this may be the wrong section sorry
So very recently while using media requests. it worked fine for the first couple of week but now tracks stutter fairly fequently. I have plenty of bandwidth so I now it's not that. it's almost like there isn't enough memory but I've, again, got plenty to spare. looking for ideas.

nope still doing it
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.
And that's okay, I had no idea that was the case until you just mentioned it. I just wished someone communicated that with me instead of not responding after the fact
my screen is black i can't use game capture

Can I add a single widget into OBS without making an overlay?
Or do I have to make a single widget overlay and crop it?
You still need an overlay

what do you mean? what browser links?
Like the streamelements overlay links or any link to be exact

AHhh there we go

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?
@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.
Thank you
thank you im tryin become a better lol player. i reched out to a couch but he never got me in..... left a bad tast i im mouth
Hi, if I donāt have OBS live installed, will my stream elements link still work as a source?
My bf doesnāt have OBS live but he does have OBS
Of course.
yes we actually prefer obs or obs with obs.live over others so yu're good if you chose not to use obs.live
Thank you C:

I installed live on my laptop as I thought it was a requirement for streamelements
its is totally an option š
Cool C: do I have to be logged into stream elements in order for the link to work?
I tried logging in on his pc but it auto logged his twitch and wouldnāt let me add mine
once you log in via se site all dat will be tracced for your browser links as to what you set up and the sign is soley based off your twitch sign in if you want to sign into your do this via his desktop/laptop
Please logout of StreamElements at https://streamelements.com/logout and then login again to your account (Twitch/YouTube/Facebook).
Thank you C:
Welcome 
I just didnāt want to mess about with logging him out of his twitch. In order for me to login with streamelements using mine.
you're safe if you want too š
Just to make sure:
Do you mean in OBS or on the SE website?
SE website
Iām logged in on OBS myself on his computer. (He uses streamlabs so in order for us to easily hop between whoās streaming, I use OBS)
Itās just when I tried to log into SE with my twitch. It automatically detected his and logged him in.
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 š
Itās okay, Iām quite technical
Hmm... I should be doing my home working but Iām 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 doesnāt work then Iāll wait for him to get back from work himself to ask.
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 ^^
Not a problem C: Iāll let you know as soon as I do. I just need to do some of my actual work a little more first š¤£
Using a guest account works fine!
It let me log into my stream elements no problem C:
Awesome! 
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.
@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.
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
Ok. I'll give that a shot. thanks.
how do i change where im streaming to? some how keeps asking me to go live on facebook and i have only ever streamed to twitch! how to i get it back to streaming to twitch??
Recently I've had issues with obs freezing and it crashes the stream. Only fix ive found is to force end obs in task manager and then restart the client.
Can i use stinger with obslive?
how do i add a stream elements overlay to obs?
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
Option for scrolling text on Stream Elements seems to have disappeared. It was showing, and its scrolling on the website, but not in OBS. Seems to have a connection issue?
is there any way to remove the black screen when changing scenes?
as in when I transition to a new overlay there is a few seconds of black screen, is it possible to remove
Found the option again, however the text is refusing to scroll, even though it's set to scroll.
hello
can someone help me pls cuz i cant un install obs live
how can i uninstall obslive

for a normal source thing for twitch whats the normal size?
"normal source thing"??

hi is there a way to show a now playing of my spotify in OBS using streamelements?
Hi! I dont know if this is the place to say it but im gonna say it anyway: The window at the left gets stucked when I log my paypal account in order to change "Bot and Tipping Setups" what I shall to do?. If u could help me i“ll aprecciate a lot. Thanks.
Is this where i'd ask for help about streablabs obs?
@lunar stream No, this is for OBS.Live from StreamElements, not StreamLabs OBS.
window capture works sometimes not or game capture
if i close the game and restart it, the game capture does not work anymore for the rest of the live stream
in SLOBs everything worked perf

Hey! Im having an issue where in OBS live the twitch stream chat and the twitch activity feed have white line or white dots around it. Is there any way to fix this?
@ocean night 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/
this is the issue i get... on the left and rights it has white lines
@ocean night Please follow these steps:
- Close OBS
- Open the NVIDIA Control Panel
- In the left menu select Manage 3D settings and then under the list of options (right panel) press Restore default settings
- Start OBS
thanks it worked š
I know it has to something small I donāt know or doing wrong I just want them to fit together and look good.
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
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
Did you check the box for āshutdown source when inactiveā for your other overlays in other scenes?
@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
@drowsy pelican in obs
I'm getting video from my capture card but unable to get audio despite setting the device to Audio Input Capture, any troubleshoot ideas?
@drowsy cairn If you are having issues with Elgato hardware or software, we recommend reaching out to their support here: https://e.lga.to/help
@drowsy cairn well if you can hear the audio input capture on the target computer running OBS
you can use the default audio source as a means to pick it up
if you can't it could be a problem with capturing the audio
hello is there some way to import my overlays from slobs to obs it always says failed to import
@cold meteor The import will fail if you are attempting to import assets that are too large or Streamlabs-owned assets.
so is their any ther way or do i have to just redo everything
When you start up a new install of obslive, there should be a way to scan for scenes on folders in your computer, but there is also a tab for it
streamelements tab in obslive, and import from other services
is it possible to have two different camera sources? i used to have two but now i can never switch between two scenes that have different cameras ifthat makes sense

log file for stream. At 30 minute mark stream keeps shutting down and disconnecting. I have used both OBS live and SLOBS
Hello out there! SLOBS is currently linked to a Twitch account, but I want to link it to another one. How do I get the "Activity feed" and "Chat" widgets connected to my new account? Thanks for any help.
How can I put the overlays I have in my streamelements network into my OBS Live?
@real stone 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
@trim trail OBS.Live is a plugin for OBS Studio, not its own software. Everything it offers is in the StreamElements menu at the top of OBS.
Is there a way to export custom overlays from streamelements? I made 2 customs that I need to export for my class but I've had no luck. I have everything set up already scene-wise, I just need to be able to share it with others without them needing to build it on their own if that makes sense.
@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.
That menu is how I found this discord. SE support is one of the options.
Are you just trying to link another twitch account to your current streamelements account?
I created a new Twitch account under a different email, so I made a new SE account under the new email as well.
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?
@timid hill I'm trying that now, thx
ok, it's not letting me add the new twitch channel because it's already associated with a StreamElements account
@trim trail StreamElements menu, on top of OBS > Logout > Login
Perfect. Thanks! Not sure how I didn't see that before. š¤¦
if i want to add my stream chat to my talking screen is it a media source??
You have to do that in the overlay editor on the website
A media source in OBS is for sound and video files

how can i show the image of my Play Station in my OBS?
@real stone Consoles do not have native support for overlays. You would need a capture card, PS4 remote play or Xbox companion app and a PC with OBS in order to have overlays over your console gameplay.

If I update OBS Studio to 26.0.2, will it break OBS.Live?
Is there a way for me to lower my stream delay ? Itās around 10 seconds and I want it to be around 1 Iāve also already changed my delay to 1 second in the advanced tab
nvm i fixed my stream quality
How can I make the game capture as background and the camera and overlay are visible?
@real stone make sure the camera and overlay sources are above the game capture in the source list of obs
@tough swallow nope
Works fine for me
How can I make the game capture as background and the camera and overlay are visible?
@real stone click and drag to move, changing the order
@bold island odds are you need to fix your bitrate and resolution. The higher resolution and bitrate the longer the delay

Hey guys, I have discord set up on my obs as a browser source. But it will not show up on my stream. How do I get it to show up?
switching monitors fixed it š thank yall
Like I see discord on my monitor, but it doesn't show up in my stream
What are you trying to do? Do you wanna show the people talking on stream?
Yes
Are you using the Discord streamkit?
Okay there are two ways to show the people talking.
- Enable Discord's own overlay in the Discord settings
- Use their widget from https://streamkit.discord.com/overlay
Thanks fam
Oh and I should mention that for the first way, you maybe have to enable this option in your Game Capture properties
can anyone help me with this?
i shouldn't be maxing out my cpu or anything with what a 3700x
That looks like something to get help with in the obs discord
is there by chance any eta on an obs.live update for obs 26.0.2?
Hello! Idk if this is the place to ask this but here I go. Is it possible when switching from your ingame overlay to something else to have that audio muted from the main game?
@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
@steel mural i have a streamdeck, didnt know you could do that thx!
Hello good morning! How do I set up OBS fonts? has no options for me.
Not sure what you mean. OBS doesn't have any fonts. You have to install them into windows
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.
My alerts aren't showing up and the panel is at the top of the source

I have an alert set for my starting soon but do I need to create another overlay just for my alerts to show up on another scene
Yes you need, add to another scene if you want to the alertbox show
thats so annoying to do for each scene
but ok
also I did do that and the alerts still aren't showing up
Dimensions is 1920x1080?
You're welcome! 
How i can use stream elements overlay on Streamlabs obs???????
@toxic sage We're not able to troubleshoot issues with using our overlays in StreamLabs OBS (SLOBS) as we don't have the tools to support their software. We recommend using OBS Studio or OBS Studio with our plugin OBS.Live.

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.

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.

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?
@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.
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.
This is usually what we recommend using to test your connection with the Twitch ingest servers: https://r1ch.net/projects/twitchtest
Test your upload bandwidth and connection quality to Twitch
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?
Other than that, just what OBS Project recommends: https://obsproject.com/wiki/Dropped-Frames-and-General-Connection-Issues
According to Twitch Test, my highest quality are to servers that aren't even remotely near me, my usual Server is listed at a 3 in quality.

i need help figuring out why chat doesnt pop up on obs when i send a message
i havent streamed with streamelements yet im still setting it up so idk if its supposed to be like that or if it wont work once i stream too
What do you mean by "pop up" exactly?
if i send a message in my chat it doesnt show up on obs
idk if its supposed to because i used to have streamlabs and it did but idk if obs.live works like that

What about my question? :)
@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 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+.
Hi @full thunder @steel blade ,
My chat bot stopt working and I dont understand why...
Hi there! I have a problem with overlays on twitch. After a while, when I change scene, overlay (always the same, is just one) disappear. If I restart OBS, reappear. Even in preview the window is empty.
<@&364840891023622144> the AI bot is not helping ... the log shows the latest tries ... and they don't explain the problem ... can I talk directly to a human, I can provide more valuable info than a log

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?
Hi @steel blade
yhea its useless because it doesnt have an output session
make sure to record/stream longer than 30 seconds
"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
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
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.
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
You still havenāt provided a log file that can be analyzed
Once we have that we can provide more assistance
I couldn't show the issue in a log file
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
try relogging like i mentioned before
Without an output it wonāt log any issues
We have been doing this for a while now. Unless you are recording or streaming obs wonāt log any diagnostic info
@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.
Do that
You still didnāt start recording or streaming. That log still has no output session
Hi guys! I've been having issues with my stream elements overlays appearing ever since the recent update.
You need to click the start recording button or the start streaming button before uploading the log file @buoyant dock

Yea but I am using a SERVER computer that I used a million times before perfectly ... and I have ONLY OBS opened
Iām sorry that youāre having difficult reading the information at the bottom of the link. But it does state the following:
And I sent you a screenshot showing that the CPU is HOGGED by OBS and ONLY OBS
Any piece of equipment, no matter how powerful, can be overworked no matter how many times you've used it before. Drivers change. Windows changes. Everything changes. Until you can provide us with a log that accurately reproduces the issue, there is nothing further we can do for you.
Iām sorry that youāre having difficult reading the information at the bottom of the link. But it does state the following:
@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
Any piece of equipment, no matter how powerful, can be overworked no matter how many times you've used it before. Drivers change. Windows changes. Everything changes. Until you can provide us with a log that accurately reproduces the issue, there is nothing further we can do for you.
@tulip hamlet Not if I did NOT change anything in the setup or the scenes and streamed perfectly a thousand times before
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
@kindred fox If you read my message you will know I already did that
If you did that, you wouldnāt have browser sources showing in task manager
I even deleted all other scenes
I kept ONE scene with ONE source
And still I had that ... and THIS IS WHY I came here guys ... you are busy and I wouldn't come here unless I do my homework first
Show me your obs window
The 778 lines detailing your scenes and sources say otherwise.
Somehow browser source process got stuck and kept getting launched or something
Until you can provide us with a log that accurately reproduces the issue, there is nothing further we can do for you.
No amount of arguing will change the above statement.
Until you can provide us with a log that accurately reproduces the issue, there is nothing further we can do for you.
@tulip hamlet I couldn't reproduce the issue ... it is STILL NOT FIXED but I can't show it in the logs
Then when you can reproduce it and provide a log, feel free to return.
@buoyant dock I've applied the Muted role to you for the time being. I'll reiterate again: Until you can provide us with a log that accurately reproduces the issue, there is nothing further we can do for you.
The role will be removed in an hour. Until then, please try to reproduce the issue and provide a usable log.
can I ask questions about an overlay in this chat or should I go to the twitch help chat?
I still need help with my issue with bits, my alerts, chat stats, and revenue history does not show my bits.
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...
@fickle heath known issue. Itās a bug with video files. Itās being investigated and will be updated once a fix is found
I created a follower goal widget to display on the top of my stream but it is showing the wrong number of followers. According to twitch I have 16 followers but the widget will only show that I have 11. Any tips on how to fix it?
@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
@broken breach 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.
@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?
- 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.
HI, i just switched to obs live, however when i closed it and then opened it again my chat and my activity bar were gone.
i can get the twitch chat one but not the streamelements one back
@kindred fox So its not me? I was driving myself crazy lol...Thanks so much for letting me know....I seriously thought it was my computer lol...
@limpid scroll click streamelements in the menu > docks > activity feed iirc
Why does my stream keep disconnecting after 36 minutes, but I have no dropped frames and OBS keeps running and thinking it's broadcasting?
@old spruce 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.
@old spruce This log indicates that you stopped the stream yourself. I'm not seeing anything in here that indicates a disconnect.
I'm not stopping it and I have no bindings to manually stop it. The last 2 times I streamed it stopped at 36 minutes on Twitch, but OBS is still showing that it's broadcasting and everything. If I click End Stream it turns to "Ending Stream..." and never goes anywhere
okay then š
can you not download ground control on a mac?
There is no Ground Control version for Mac, no.
did they take that away? videos on youtube i watched had the option available but they are a year old
Ever since yesterday the colored square on the bottom right has been fluctuating from green to red when I'm live. Would lowering my bit rate help?
can someone make sense of this.. I dont know what else Ican do to try and fix this. right at 30 minutes stream disconnects
Hi there. I haven't had an issue with streamelements previously but I had dropped frames tonight and had to stop streaming. I looked into it with inspector.twitch.tv and found the below occured. I'm not sure what happened exactly.
Looks like a network issue
Like a router problem?
I have streamelements obs issue, where whenever i launch an any game using game capture it will just crash. i tried it on SLOBS and the same issue happened, any idea to fix it?
Run it as administrator
will try
@kindred fox Do you have any troubleshooting tips? Newbie here.
I ran it as an administartor and it still crashes ;-;

Ive got a few questions the internet cant help me out with, this was the only other option lol
im two days new to stream elements and obs so i dont know much. So far ive made an overlay and downloaded obs through the streamelements website and everything is connected to my twitch account. my only problems are is connecting my custom overlay to obs studios. i dont see the "launch overlay" option anywhere and when i try to download it to my pc and open it it says it cantopen it because it was deleted or moved. so my question is how can i import or put my overlay to obs?
@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
someones getting a kiss for this lol

one more question, now that ive got the overlay on obs, how do i import my youtube playlist on obs? ive got it set up and linked to my streamelements account but im not seeing the widget anywhere for me to add it to obs. so now my question is how can i share the audio media from my playlist on youtube to obs?
Is there anyway to see the alert boxes? Like a test to make sure it is working properly without going live?
@viscid epoch You can test alerts via the Emulate bell on the lower left side of the Overlay Editor. Simply go to your Dashboard > My Overlays > pencil/edit button on the overlay. Make sure the Preview LIVE on stream option is on to see the alert in OBS/XSplit** https://streamable.com/vtulg9
sorry, was afk. yeah it just says "no active widgtes were detected for media request. go to overlay"
Well do you have the MR widget in your overlay?
hey ,i need help i bought some overlay for my obs.live but they are not showning up in obs.live

@surreal thicket 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
Hi I am using OBS.live and suddenly when I use the overlay creator Emulate i does not show in OBS or update the resolution/alert it self but while I used the replay alert button in OBS it worked but it played the old alert.
Hey! Im having an issue getting the macro keys on my keyboard to work with OBS live. They seem to work fine when obs is the active window but when i switch to desktop/game/browser, the macros dont work and i have to use the hotkeys that i set up
Does anyone know how to fix this problem?
Why is custom bot account getting its links and stuff filtered out
its not modded
@bright shale You can test alerts via the Emulate bell on the lower left side of the Overlay Editor. Simply go to your Dashboard > My Overlays > pencil/edit button on the overlay. Make sure the Preview LIVE on stream option is on to see the alert in OBS/XSplit** https://streamable.com/vtulg9

Hi there, my bot has been working fine this morning with a custom bot name but all of a sudden it changed back to streamelements?
I didn't change any setting, I have parted it and then let it join my channel, last time this fixed it but now it doesn';t.
@rugged quail Try to reset your custom bot name in OBS.Live.
The same thing happened to a handful of people just now, still trying to figure out exactly what but it seems to be back now.
I just tested it myself as it had happened to me and the custom name bot is back to form.
You should hopefully be able to get it working yourself as well.
@rugged quail Try to reset your custom bot name in OBS.Live.
@grizzled marsh already did, also relogged, nothing is working
I logged in on the website to make sure the account is still active and it is now
Yeah just now

Hello, have anybody else the problems with obs at dropped frames š¤
@rugged quail
- Log out of the bot account in the custom bot options, make sure the option to "Connect Custom Account" is available.
- Change the bot to StreamElements and click Save.
- Log out of OBS.Live (click the top where it says StreamElements and click log out)
- Log back into OBS.Live
- Go back to the custom bot name option and choose custom bot account.
- Link your custom bot account back and save.

As DC said, delete your browser source for media request and create a new and paste your overlay url.
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
Are custom named bots not working?
@serene flicker 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 streamelements in your channel if you have not already.
- Post your old and your new name here so that we can update your channel's chatstats tracking (must be done by staff).
@hardy gull 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
@serene flicker Can you post your old username and new for chatstats?
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
I don't think this is much of a obs.live topic, but ill send you this, hope it helps
https://obsproject.com/forum/resources/how-to-split-exclude-seperate-audio-sources-off-your-stream-or-recording.8/
Its fortunately quite easy to exclude an Audio source from your stream or recording. But there are a few things we cannot do. So let us take a look at the different sources we may have available:

Hi so i have no idea what im doing and need help getting things started.
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?
OBS Studio. This program
You can download it right here https://obsproject.com/download
OBS (Open Broadcaster Software) is free and open source software for video recording and live streaming. Stream to Twitch, YouTube and many other providers or record your own videos with high quality H264 / AAC encoding.
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
Anyone wanna help me get my camera to work with my overlay got everything working accept that.
seeking help and then being unable to execute any of the help given xD
@rugged quail how old are you? mentally, I mean.
because you seem like either an immature troll or a genuine kid. I'm guessing not the latter?
Stop
I'm guessing you just thought it would be fun to waste my good friend @rugged quail 's time
You are not helping the conversation
good day sir!
called it
@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.
it recognises it but wont capture any video
that is odd. what kind of camera is it?
logi pro stream
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
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
Last warning
how do I scale this video into this box?
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
otherwise it'll be super squished and it will look horrible
it should look like this
ooooooh it's a small video to being with
ahhh
gotcha... what software are you using to edit the video?
well I have to contact my editor then
there should be an option to change the resolution of the video somewhere
yeaaaa
oh you are not editing it yourself...
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
@rugged quail click streamelements > docks > activity feed
@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.
cheers ā¤ļø
does anyone have an idea why i cant get my camera to capture anything on my overlay?
nvm i fixed it
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!"
I got a question again I have an overlay of mobile alerts but I want my computer overlays transferred to mobile overlays but, I don't want to manually have to do it over

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!
Sign out in Settings>Stream.
@tulip hamlet I don't have their Twitch username or password, just the stream key. Will that be enough?
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
@tulip hamlet Okay, that should be fine. I will still be able to use my StreamElements overlay URL, right?
Yes, but it will be based on your data, not theirs.
@fluid zodiac 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.
@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
Was looking for some help importing my streamlabs alertbox into stream elements
was wondering if anyone had some free time to go over things and make sure im understanding everything correctly. If not, i think i got it... lol

anyone ever have the issue where the stream elements export tool is downloaded but never shows up on the website so i am unable to import my alerts
can anyone help me, audio isn't working with my capture card and ps4
@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
@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.
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
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
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.
