Hello quick follow up. I'm struggling to find SE Library. Could you provide a link?
@stoic prism
fair question.. as right now the easiest way to check your library is via your alertbox
Ah of course. The one place I didn't consider. Thank you again!
so how would i be able to add the quick commands on obs from twitch
or rather quick actions i should say

thank you
the back up playlist isnt working for me
Hi idk if I'm supposed to @ someone, but I need help resetting the custom bot name. It was accidentally set to something I didn't want and I can't find a way to change it or reset it now.
Pretty new to using the stream store for streamelements, is there a less cluncky way to redeem things people have claimed from the store without keeping a second window open? Trying to avoid the sound effect option even though it can automatically redeem since some of my perks have gifs and those won't pop up with sound effect.
Like is there a way to set a command or is the best way to set a custom browser dock in OBS for redemptions (wasn't sure if there's already a dock made for that)
@wary gazelle Currently renaming the bot fully works with OBS.Live.
You can follow this video guide to set it up: https://discordapp.com/channels/141203863863558144/494513233416421386/561516184718278676
If you don't want to use OBS.Live and want to stick with Ground Control, please let us know your Twitch username.
@timid trellis You can create a command with the response {redeem ITEMNAME} repalce ITEMNAME with the item name 🙂
I thought that command is for the viewer side so they don't have to type !redeem itemname
I was more looking for a less cluncky way to approve things once redeemed sorry for poor wording
Like that stuff
oh i see.. no, there is no other way
Thx, figured I'd check. I'll just put a custom dock on obs
@honest echo is there a chance you could help me reset my bot name? I know how to set a custom bot name, not how to change it or reset it afterwards. I accidentally set the custom name to my own, so my options are streamelements and then two versions of my own name. I don't know how to set a new custom name there isn't an option anymore.
@wary gazelle "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."
so, why is it that when I want to start a stream with obslive, it wants to stream to YT instead of twitch?

Hey there, so I’ve been using OBS live for a few months now and it’s worked well. But today, every time I started my stream, it would instantly drop frames. I tried all the tips to prevent frames dropping and they didn’t work. I even streamed on Streamlabs OBS and it worked fine there. So, I’m not sure what the problem is. 🤔
blackscreen issue ; no display from ps4 elgato pc setup on obs live. just the black screen. everything is hooked up correctly. any tips
My Stream elements updated and now my stream information is gone. i cant find it to put it back on my dock. Can i please get some assistance getting it back on?>
@signal cape Please provide a log from your last stream. To do this, in OBS go to Help > Log Files > Upload Last Log File and paste the link to the log file here.

Hello??
Hello??
@crimson mica bello
Hi I need help
I made a overaly via the streamelements site
How to I upload to obs?
@meager osprey 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
Thank you!
Can someone help me
try to put overlay
no obs
and this screen
from logim
So this is more of a thought (will probably paste it in the ideas), but I wanna know if it is even technically possible.
Would it technically be possible to make it so you can switch the OBS.Live's connection between different platfoms with a profile switch of sorts, as to save time for people that stream on different platfoms throught the week?
Basically so I don't have to re-log in and swap my streamkey each time I switch between platforms.
@mint pewter This happens when you put editor URL instead of overlay link. Long story short => click preview on top right corner of editor and it should provide you OBS URL
hello is there a way to add custom fonts to streamelements? Not sure if this is the right channel
hey
i need some help please
i creating an assset rotator for my live but it doesnt work in my obs studio
@blissful shard 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.
@full thunder did as followed and font is not appering
hey guys, i've been trying to make a custom alert in streamlabs, and as soon as i select "Text over image" as my text layout, the text no longer appears at all. any help?
is this the correct way of typing it ? C:\Windows\Fonts\Evogria
@blissful shard nah man, all you need to type is Evogria
that's the name of the font 🙂
the rest is just it's location
omg i feel like a dummy SO to you @odd tinsel my hero for today!
How do I put my facecam in the corner in obs?
ok, so dunno if this is an OBS thing or not... I've got a SE Overlay set up using a custom font... show's up properly in the overlay preview, but not when it's loaded up in OBS
in the editor
and OBS:
font is properly installed, made sure everything is spelt correctly, and I've restarted multiple times
@crisp zinc Google Fonts
More than 900 google fonts are supported at this time. You can preview them here: https://fonts.google.com/

@honest echo I tried that with the admin rights now mines done it getting same message

Hey!
I have a problem that i can't change the name of my stream, can anyone please help?
@turbid cobalt StreamElements menu, on top of OBS > Logout > Login
Hi guys, don't know if this is the correct channel to post this question, but I the Streamelements bot is not working on the channel anymore, I have removed the bot and re-added it making sure that is has mod privileges but it still does not work when using any of the enabled or custom commands.
@floral nimbus 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
sooo im trying to test my alert box on obs live and i hear them but i dont see them??
and i see them on my overlay thing but not on the actual obs live streaming program
So I've never really had this problem and I don't know why it keeps happening. I was just streaming and it was fine for about an hour or so and now my frames dropped. I haven't had this issue up until now.

@signal cape 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.
@signal cape 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+.
hey in my ground control it doesnt say add bot or whatever do i need to have the account made?

Hi! I wanted to ask if there was a way to have a base Canvas Resolution at 3440x1440, but have the output resolution at 1920x1080? I can not get that setting for some reason. When I stream at my base canvas, I am told by viewers that the stream looks squashed. Help!
Hello I hope you understand what my problem is an. I stream with obs. Live and want to involve 3 audio inputs separately. One is my game sound, the 2. my background Musik and my 3. should be my voice chat like discord and TeamSpeak. My problem is I can't involve the 3. Audio because obs don't show me the right source. I'm using voicemeter potato an VB cable but it looks like I'm to stupid to set everything correctly. The Musik and game sound working very good but in the moment I separate the voice chat off my game sound I'm stuck.. And not even my step sis can help me...
@wheat wyvern not the full answer, but you may need a separate device to split the sounds you talk of, can't remember tho
Hey so with the ground control app i cant see The 'Custom bot name' Do I Need to link my 2nd account to something, or can i used my current account or only a 2nd account

Not sure where to put this, but when I try to install stream elements, it says that it: Can't write: D:\OBS\obs-studio\obs-plugins\64bit\obs-streamelements.dll
just downloaded obs from streamelements and it won't let me update
Voicemeter
I hope one of you can help me. Maybe in a voice chat.
@flint escarp this device is voicemeter its an virtual mixing and routing thing
I think you need a device with that, but ill have to check it out, but best would be to ask obs directly
@rich vine , you can dock it in your obs programme without it showing on stream
click --->view--->docks--->chat
should be 3rd tab from the left
I have the Extra Life overlay and need to add to obs and its not letting me when its in my overlays already
@bold bolt 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
Thanks @full thunder
I've tried to download stream elements obs live and when i install it. it asked to update it, so i did but it keeps coming up with an error
it says "Update failed: fi-FI.ini is still in use. close all programs and try again"
I'm not seeing a clear spot to ask this. I want to combine my browser sources down to a single source is there a way for me to import other browser sources into stream elements? (Streamloots alerts, Kofi alert, etc)
There is not.
Dang alright. Just trying to lower cpu load.
I'm having an issue where if I hit the maximize button at the upper right corner of obs live, the bar disappears and I can't minimize/close. Any suggestions?
I've having another issue, I tried to add overlay using browser url for an overlay theme off OBS website. however when i add the url to OBS app it cuts it off
@unborn crag 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
It cuts off the actuall overlay the the resolution is set correctly
In editor the overlay works, but when live and in preview it looks like that
how do you add the game screen to the OBS

I'm having an issue atm with my variation sounds on OBS. They work when i play them in streamelements editor but when i play them on OBS i get no sound but the desktop audio is moving so it is recognising a sound but isn't playing it for me on OBS. It was working just a few days ago. Does anybody know what this could be? thank u! It is only with the variations btw, follower alerts ect work fine!
I can't seem to fix my top tipper, my top tipper is 25 yet stream elements keeps saying its $150. Ive tried resest widget data. but that did nothing
hello im trying to import the overlays from the website but cant seem to do it?
@kindred sigil 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
do the new followers work automatically?
I am trying to connect my bot account to OBS.Live. I have done this in the past and had some issues, but today i had to reset my password and now i can't get it to connect again. When I click on "Connect Custom Bot Account" it will have me log into the bot again as usual, but after I click "Authorize" to allow StreamElements to connect to the account, nothing happens except I get an email saying the login was successful. I cannot send a test message after authorizing.
hey, ive become really interested in streaming and want to share fun moments with others. i tried to setup everything and get it going but what ever i do it does not pick up my desktop audio. this is my last hope to get some help!

@autumn wharf 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).

- Back in the Activity feed, click on the Send Test Message button and check if your custom bot name starts working again
Nothing happens except I get an email saying the login was successful. I cannot send a test message after authorizing.
@autumn wharf "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

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."
add --remote-debugging-port=40404 after the quotation mark?
yes
ok
with a space before --
oh ok i was missing the space
this is what happens when i try to go to localhost:40404 in my browser.
do you have OBS open?
yes
and i put in the target thingy before restarting it.
it doesn't work on MS edge either.
i don't think the firewall is the problem either.
show me a screenshot of the properties of OBS
try and place a different port in the properties and match after localhost:(portnumber)
my obslive since the last update now take 2 minutes to start up
When I restart my pc it imediatly goes in the first time. But then if I close it and open we are back to a 2 minute wait
@autumn wharf would you like to do a quick team viewer session so that I can take a look?
@raw scaffold what are your PC specs?
I have a recent bug that causes OBS to crash constantly, I have to quickly switch to normal OBS before it crashes and then log back in next time to fix it. But it happens every time.
@rustic monolith 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.
It did not work going through the steps. I will continue using regular OBS until maybe you can have a look and see what's up.
I did go through all steps up until 6 with the repeat of 1 and 2.

@gloomy scroll 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
You need to place a normal link - a non-playlist link there
Yes, you get invited as an editor to your friend's accout(or whom ever you want to give the overlay to) and then you can duplicate the overlay from your account to theirs
"Follow these steps to grant managers/moderators access to your dashboard:
- Click on your channel name at the top of the dashboard
- Create a new invite at one of three access levels (Bot Supervisor, Editor, Full Control)
- Send this invite to a mod/manager to give them access to your dashboard. The link is one-time-use and expires after 72 hours if not accepted
Video tutorial: https://youtu.be/zl_h-ttZDF0"
And how do i invite myself as a editor
You can't invite your self to someone's account
they need to generate the invite link as show on the above steps
thank you

Sorry for the noob question, but I just started playing around with this last night. Is there a way to resize a bunch of layers altogether? I haven't even loaded my scenes into the OBS yet, still just working on the layers on the site.
I closed out the chat and idk how to reopen it
StreamElements at the top in OBS.Live > Chat
@snow mica There is no way to resize groups of items at once.
im in that section but i dont see anything about bringing back the chat
@vague spindle Do you have a crash log so we can take a look?

See the pinned messages in this channel.
when i click settings it says error loading data
Log out and back in to OBS.Live again.
I deleted everything manually. Thank you @full thunder
@odd kraken, where is the crash log? Previously when OBS crashes I've had OBS crashed box come up, but not this time - it all just closes. I;ve uninstalled OBS.live and it's now a clean OBS install on V26.0.2
- 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.
@odd kraken here is the report...https://obsproject.com/logs/PSqvQkUA-UkFx1jg
thanks for looking at it 🙂
Try to install OBS.Live from here. https://www.obs.live/ and see if it crashes again.
HOW TO: OBS.Live crashes at startup
- 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.
Start at step 4.
I went through those steps previously (except 5 and 6) to get it working again - I'll go through them and see what happens
Any reason why my stream chat wont come up while I am live? It just keeps going waiting for stream to go live
I've got OBS working again with the overlays so will leave it like that for streams over the next couple of days. I'll then try steps 5 and 6 over the weekend when I have more time - thanks @odd kraken

All of my alerts work on mystreamlabs overlay except bits/cheers. For some reason even though I put in the custom gif and sound in, when I test it, it shows the defualt streamelemnts gif/sound. Any reason why this is happening?
Hey, i was attempting to add an overlay, and while doing so I clicked on resize output and now what my display has is really zoomed in.
@trail sphinx Check Settings>Video.
hello, how can i use an overlay from streamlabs in obs pls?
You'd have to ask Streamlabs.
@tight yoke 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

Hey guys, im having some problems with stuttering. Here is an example: https://clips.twitch.tv/BillowingFuriousCheddarResidentSleeper
The stream stutters but the game is just fine. It happens in all games, not only MW
Also, if a use other variation of OBS Like PRISM, this doesnt happen
My PC: i7 9700k, 16gb DDR4 3000mhz and GTX 2070
Im running OBS.live as administrator
@haughty fern 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.
@haughty fern 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+.
My custom bot no longer works. When I switch back to bot name 'StreamElements' it works just fine. I use OBS.Live, SE is added and modded and I have SE Tip page working.
@stuck maple 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
Genius, thanks so much (bot) ❤️

the overlays don't even touch ... on the website the overlays are all ok I do the test to touch they don't even touch!
@full thunder
touch?
it doesn't ring the alert i'm using google translator i just want to fix it because the alert doesn't ring
@odd kraken
@buoyant mantle 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
exactly did it but the alert does not ring
Yes, that link and do not post it in public.
@buoyant mantle 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
@buoyant mantle What broadcasting software are you using?
@buoyant mantle 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.
ok

Hey folks, I'm really not sure what I'm missing. I can't get the overlay to show on OBS.
I've added it as a browser source with the right resolution
@wild gate resolution? 1920x1080 by default, disable hardware acceleration
Ok, resolution is right but will try that and see what happens, thanks
Okay I need help. When I have streamelements open in the background I can hear my alerts, however when I close it my alerts no longer make sound. They do appear on my screen though

I tried configuring my camera to my camera frame through transformation but now I can't even see the whole overlay and its too big for the whole screen, I used the retro overlay from the website so its all one thing
help 😐 please I just wanna try something other than streamlabs and this is confusing and I can't find out how to fix this issue
@blissful owl 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
when adding my browser I DO make it 1920, 1080 Like I said it was working before I tried configuring my camera
This doesn't help me, Ive done this but it isn't working now and I can't just press a rewind button or restart, everytime I remove it and add it again with 1920 1080 it does the same thing
@blissful owl 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

thank you so much! fixed it
My overlays are slow to load. When I change scenes, my game and camera load in right away, then the overlay loads in a few seconds later. I switched from animated to static thinking that may have been the problem, but it does the same thing. Is there a setting I can fix to make sure everything loads in altogether?
@snow mica Check out this tutorial for OBS’ studio mode which allows you to preload scenes before transitioning. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W8iWsD2Lq3U
Hello I'm having a problem with my alerts. I change the sound on my alerts and tested it offline in obs and it sounds fine but when I'm streaming the old sound alert goes instead of the new one?
@ashen mason Did you change your variations, and not just your main alert?
how many variations is on a follower alert?
Follower? None, by default.
yeah it's all my alerts follower, sub
Did you hit save after making your changes?
yes and tested by muting stream elements tab to make sure the alert can be heard thru obs soley
I see you're using Nerd or Die alerts. You will need to contact them, as they're the ones who coded the alerts.
I'm dealing with the sound of the alerts which I upload to stream elements and work when offline and I got the sounds from this discord in sfx share. I think this is a stream elements problem
So I'm having a bit of a unique problem
I started with OBS.Live using it to stream to Twitch
I have since streamed on YouTube but wish to go back to using it for Twitch
However when I try to go live now with all of the settings tuned back for Twitch, it tries to go live on YouTube, even though I have disconnected my YouTube account
Any pointers would be greatly appreciated!
@spiral crystal StreamElements menu, on top of OBS > Logout > Login
Using obs.live I cannot hear my alerts when I stream. The audience hears them, but I cannot in my headphones. I hear all my game, discord, sound board but not from my overlay.
@scarlet nacelle If you are not hearing your alerts and/or Media Request, you are most likely using the Control Audio via OBS option in your browser source properties.
To make sure you hear the alerts and the stream also hears them, follow along the screenshot bellow.

Hello! I have tried to adjust the Standard sentence in the module section when people follow, sub, etc... . The thing i tried was to put my emote in it by copy pasting the emote code a few times but when it is getting triggered it shows the word instead of the actual emote. Someone that can help me ?
Yes. But first I want to mention that you are asking in the wrong channel.
That out of the way - our bot needs to be gifted a sub in order to use your emotes
oh i didnt know that 😄 thx for the info

Hi, when I put a timer for an ad with this command / commercial 30 it tells me that I am not an affiliate, when I am, what can I do?
Anyone have any idea why my font size blew up in StreamElements OBS overnight?
hello everyone,
i have some video files as seperate scenes, that i use for showing them on-stream (think of it like an ad playing).
The thing is: i found a stinger-transition i would like to use. If i enable the transition, the video auto-starts instantly on scene-change. I would like to delay the start of the playback to the point, when the transition finished (the transition is exactly 1 second long).
Is this possible to do?
@sick whale Please logout of StreamElements at https://streamelements.com/logout and then login again to your account (Twitch/YouTube/Facebook).
@silver kite You can set the font size in the settings gear in OBS.Live afaik.

Hi, i've had this issue where the sound has stopped working on streamelements ever since a steelseries engine update i installed today, some new sound drivers were installed for the arctis pro wireless that steelseries released.
What sound?
Everything, media source isnt playing sound, output is all set and the same audio device as always set, no changes and was working wednesday and yesterday before i installed steelseries update
Contact SteelSeries on what their update changed and check your audio set up.
Apparently obs is still detecting sound but the audio in OBS isn't going to headphones, so i'll have to stream on mute and hope everyone can hear everything haha. I'll contact steelseries
You can also try to contact the OBS Support.

@odd kraken Strange it's now working all of a sudden.
Well thanks anyway, streamelements support are a Star as always.
I did reconfigure the audio monitoring device even though it was already the same so maybe that had an effect, who knows if some ID referencing the device behind the scenes changed or whatever. Then i restarted streamelements OBS and it was working
hello all
i have a question
how can i set the color of obs.live in a light theme?
or streamelements obs
You referring to the chat?
no the entire overlay of obs
like everything such as activity feed and all
and scenes
Not sure. Maybe another support has any ideas.
I only know that you can change the chat color like described in the pinned messages.
ah ok i am helping out a friend to try to stream but he is colorblind and only see white and gray
and the only thing he can see now in obs is the chat all other is 1 grey screen
Does anyone know how to fix this "waiting for obs to exit" when i try to update my obs please?
Hello! I hope to have a simple question simple answer lol. im having issues getting giveaway commands and Contest commands to work in Twitch chat, but they work in Streamelements chat website when i stream. Streamelements is connected on twitch. thanks for the help!

Hey, does anyone know how to separate the webcam overlay from the top bar overlay? I want to be able to hide/unhide my webcam and webcam overlay in obs while keeping the topbar overlay shown.
You can create a fresh overlay and duplicate the webcam frame to that overlay via the copy button in the layers settings.
Would i do that by creating a blank overlay? Right now i am using a theme i found in the theme gallery.
You can create a blank overlay, or duplicate the whole overlay and delete the assets you do not need in bot of the overlays.
@full thunder ok i tried that, both in browser and OBS StreamElements, it shows SE is moderator, bot is active and chats enabled. commands work on the SE website where i stream but on twitch the commands don not work, nor on OBS streaming interface.
i do have Pretzel playing and that is working atm.
commands work in the SE website, what are you reffering with this?
Hello eveyone. I'm using OBS Studio everything currently works great on my old pc. I got a newer and more powerful pc.

That is just an embedded chat on that website if it is working there, then it also should work in a normal twitch window and in OBS.Live. Make sure you relog via StreamElements > Log out and log back in in OBS.Live.
its not working in the twitch window on obs live. only place it is working is on SE. i even restarted my computer.

Does anyone know how to link custom fonts from your PC to StreamElements? I have Custom Font enabled, just don't know what to do from there.
@grizzled oxide 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.
Hello how do i get obslive to have chat on my second monitor and stream on my first monitor please i am new to this
@full thunder Any hope with this?
@full thunder I followed the instructions from the video and I'm still having issue. Is there anything else that could be causing the delay because when I use the transition in studio mode it will show the overlay for a second then go to a black screen for a few and then back to the actual scene...
Never mind, I fixed it! I just needed to turn off the option to refresh the browser whenever I loaded a scene and also turn off the option to shutdown when not visible and now I have smooth scene transitions- just in case anyone else has the same issue 🙂
@full thunder Hello! My chatstats are bugged. I've noticed a trend of your support team asking if we (the people coming to you for help) have changed names.

Hi guys,
I had two months off of streaming and throughout my return I want to change some things up - specifically channel points.
I want viewers to be able to interact with me through spending them. I don't have a lot of money, however I know people who have lights hooked up to their stream that change colours etc... and I saw this on Quin's stream - https://www.twitch.tv/quin69/clip/ExcitedSwissArmadilloOhMyDog?filter=clips&range=7d&sort=time
It really stuck out to me, how is this possible?
@full thunder My StreamElements account has logged itself out of OBS, but every time I go to log it back it, it appears to glitch and won't log back in at all. None of my overlays are working because of it, and no matter how many times I restart or log back in, it still registers me needing to log in. How do I fix this?
@full thunder One question, can I get alerts from two channels at the same time?
@quasi osprey you need to have an overlay from both accounts
@turbid zealot can you record of what exactly is happening?
Well, shortly after I sent in the report, it decided to start fixing itself and begin working again.
oh
ok then, it got scared i guess
@rugged quail What most of his stuff is via the Twitch channel points, which we don't have access to, but I know there are some integrations with it where depending on whats redeemed triggers a specified alert.
Is there any specific reason we don’t have access to those channel points? Is it a partner thing? - leighrex
hey, my twitch chat doesnt connect to the console
Twitch channel points doesn't have an open API point for us(Streamelements) to work with.
@spiral jasper if you are streaming from a console and the integrated chat is not working, we can't help with that.
im streaming with obs.live
Ah makes sense. Would I need a plug-in to try it out?
You will have to look it up on your own

Hello, i'm having some issues with the website. Whenever i create a blank overlay, rename it, insert a widget, save and exit, i cannot edit it later. The page loads forever and doesn't allow me to edit it.
Also, when i create an overlay and add it to obs.live as a web source, it stops showing after a while. I can hear the sounds of the alerts, but the alert box disappeared.
I've tried to reload everything, reinstall the program, etc... But looks like it's something with the website or between the website and my account.

Obs live removed the log out button so how do I fix the activity feed bug?
@buoyant grove StreamElements menu, on top of OBS > Logout > Login
Button is here
hello bois ive been having issues where my stream would randomly just drop to 0 bitrate and my stream would end
@sly moth 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.

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.
If OBS.Live (which is a plugin for OBS Studio) got updated, then why am I not getting the update?
Check for updates
Let me show you something
- this is the chat dock from OBS.Live
- this the chat dock from the OBS integration
are you sure you don't have our activity feed loaded as a custom dock?
From this?
Right, so thats a custom dock
At the bottom of the dock there should be a "login with twitch" button
Do note that this is not OBS.Live related and you are externally loading the activity feed
I’m with Facebook.
In that case I recommend NOT loading the activity feed like that
either install OBS.Live properly
or just use the popout option from the website
Smh simple bugs that they can fix.
Let me explain how the ACtivity feed is trying to log you in right now
Its looking for login details stored in the OBS stored cookie
from the custom dock
which apparently got cleared at some point
so now its asking you to login
but the activity feed is not meant to be used as a login process so it defaults to the Twitch login
It needs to know before hand what type of account it is from.
If you are logged into your browser
then that is fine
but a custom browser dock is different
So the custom dock only works for twitch?
Ok let me try and explain it again
The custom browser dock saves its own cookie.
That cookie is now missing or refreshed, hence its not storing any login details
The activity feed requires a logged in account
Since there is no logged in account, by default it thinks you need to login with your twitch account
Solutions:
- Don't use the custom browser dock, but you can still pop out the activity feed window from the dashboard, to keep its login information set properly
- Install OBS.Live
Well I been on obs live for months and never had to use a pop because the log out button fix that issue.
So there supposed to bring it back?
OBS.Live is a Plugin for OBS created by StreamElements. You can download OBS.Live here: https://streamelements.com/obslive
Please make sure you have the latest version of OBS installed, Current Version: 26.0.2. You can install OBS here: https://obsproject.com/
if you grab the installer you can install it again
and it should come back
idk what update you are referring to, but there hasn't been a new release of OBS for a long time because we are completely stable with current and previous versions of OBS Studio
Will I lose all my sources and scenes?

hi i got a problem. i just added my overlay to the browser in obs but when i clicked on" open in streamelements overlay editor" it said: "Uh-oh... Invalid authorization token" how can i fix that?

Thanks, but sadly they are unable to help(
So in case anyone knows the problem, pm please.
do i need to have any kind of program running in the background so the overlay work? or is that just automatically going
You are trying to access the overlay editor via OBS.Live
if its giving you the "invalid auth token"
then you simply need to relog into OBS.Live
im using the streamelements TTS. i want it to say everything apart from 2 words (N word and F word). how can i do that?
i think the default profanity filter blocks way more than that
You can turn off the standard profanity filter and make your own custom filter
and just add those 2 words to it
hey my alerts were not working during my stream today but when i use the emulate follower event the thing still works
What events exactly? Are the events in the activity feed?
@wise harness Please provide your account ID found at the top of this page: https://streamelements.com/dashboard/account/channels This ID is public info and safe to share here.
is this right? 5ea2ab472a1097ae04d84d2c
Internally we reset something. Your new followers should show up.
ah alrighty thanks a bunch :D
Hi, I'm trying to import my slobs to elementsOBS but it keeps getting stuck
Import can fail when:
- there are copyrighted assets from Streamlabs in the scenes
- unsupported media files
- media files being bigger then 100MB
Can I find out what it is specifically with out guessing?
I have a few scenes with many elements
You still have to check if you have any media file that we don't support and check if the file is above 100bm
alright, thank you
@shy mountain is 1 iteration of the word enough? or do i need to add a bunch of creative ways to TTS-pronounce the word
like 'cawk' can bypass 'cock' right, stuff like that
thats up to you
where do i change the filter btw
is it under Bot -> Spam filters
or is the TTS filter somewhere else
Tipping settings -> tipping moderation
thanks
i have no idea how to setup the filter properly so hope i dont get banned d:
is there a way to see the words on the official Standard Profanity Protection list
im sure the words i want to block are on it
They are most likely there, but no the standard list we have is protected on purpose from public eyes
my streamelements sub alert which is a 15sec video is lagging in obs, but not when previewed in the browser, any ideas?

Hey guys, im doing multi platform stream to twitch,ytb,fb, is it possible to have the activity feed all in one? so i can monitor new followers from fb, new subs from ytb and new cheers from twitch all on one panel activity feed?
Not possible, as the activity feed is platform based.
streamlabs does, so i just wondering if SE able to do it as well, because i use obs live
We are not StreamLabs.
i hope you guys can add this feature in future , thank you Benno for answering
Hey all, is there a way to import my SLOBS follower analytics to Streamelements to use in a widget? Importing seems to only bring in donation history.
Only donations history is imported. What do you need exactly? You can only set latest names manually.
Just looking to set total followers and latest followers. If i set these manually will they be able to update to other values as they happen?
Total followers is updated after your first stream with us.
You can set the latest data manually here: https://streamelements.com/dashboard/sessionc and they will update if you get new events.
Hi there, I have a bunch of questions... is there any place where I won't be too annoying? 
@molten thicket Welcome to the helpdesk! Please let us know how we can assist you today and a support volunteer or staff member will assist you as soon as they are available. Thank you for your patience.
thanks benno!
Is the Extra Life donations tracker widget broken at the moment? It's showing $0 raised out of a goal of $0; I have my participant ID set, and it worked yesterday.
Yes.
I heard there was some hiccup on EL's side with their API early this morning.
Oh okay, cool.
(glad it's a known issue 😉 )
Thanks
Known issue, devs are aware.
Perfect. Thanks for everything, guys, you're doing an awesome job! 🙂 ❤️
Okay, so while I am trying to install the overlays, I do not see them at all.
@molten 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
where is shutdown source
I have put them and set all of the recommended settings, but they are nowhere to be seen
Take a look at the video the bot posted.
I only see the outline of it

this might belong in a different chat, but i stream with SLOBS because it's my preferred experience. That being said, will my twitch statistics still be updated in StreamElements even if i do not use obslive to broadcast? I like the overlay creator in streamelements but would like to continue using slobs to stream
The data should still be updated. Be aware, that we can only show tips if they have been made via our tipping link.
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.
perfect, thank you!
Hey!! I think it worked!! Thanks ❤️
Should the alert overlays always be invisible since they are not visible unless activated via the viewer? 😄
When streaming my mic gets static like and cuts out sometimes but does not do this when i use it for anything else. is there a setting or filter that might cause this or is it just a issue with my mic?

This is not the problem at all, like i said before, i cannot edit my alertbox on the website. The page loads forever...
If i create a blank overlay with an alertbox and keep the page running, the alerts work fine in obs.live, but as soon as i leave the page back to my dashboard, the alerts stop working.

Is there any reason to run OBS at 25fps (I have one main cam that sends @ 25fps and two webcams that are 30fps but can be set to 25 I believe) since when I check the recorded live stream on youtube, it's at 30fps ?!
Ie would I benifit somehow by running OBS at 30fps also, even though one cam only sends 25fps=? (it's run though an avermedia pcie capture card)
webcams are logitech c920 anc c910

I had someone sub with twitch prime but didn't get a notification and it also doesn't show in any activity feed, not even in stats in obs
@tepid seal Prime Gaming (new and resub) and paid subscriptions (resub only) must be shared in chat manually by the person subscribing in order for the subscription information to be sent to StreamElements. For Prime Gaming, the user needs to have sharing enabled on https://www.twitch.tv/settings/prime. For paid subs, if the share box doesn't show up immediately it will when they refresh the page. https://i.imgur.com/VNJN0Uv.gif https://i.imgur.com/2297EA7.png

Hi I seem to have 2 chat channels in OBS.live one is the native OBS and the other I think is the one with the chat bot down load. Do I need both?
One chat dock is from OBS Studio and one from OBS.Live.
I which one is which and which do I use?
You can use both. The one with the two icons at the top is from OBS.Live.
i cant hear any audio from obs itself
if i reroute the audio to my voicemeeter banana i can hear it

@mortal aurora make sure all of your browser source settings include "Shutdown when inactive" in their properites.
Since OBS on Linux appears to have dodgy support for the 'browser' plugin, is there a way to just open my alertbox in a browser with and apply a chroma key? How do I get the background a solid colour?
Cool; thanks

Hi everyone. I'm trying to setup my alert box for OBS.Live but I found a very strange bug. After I have changed most of my alert i was trying to make all of them of the same color. For 2 i do it easily without any problem but for the other i can't do the same.
I follow the same procedure but everytime i try i get the same base color even after saving and when i reload the dashboard i found that the new color isn't saved. The point is that every other modification work just fine. Anyone could help me?
New Edit: Problem solved, even if in a strange way.
What is the importance in the "shut down source when not visable?
As an example: Lower power usage, as source is not loaded in background when switched to another scene and error reduction like multiple alert audio issues.
Hello everyone! On my old pc, I use to stream in 1080p 60fps with no problems. On my new pc, I'm only able to stream in 720p. Are my setting correct? Thank you

Hey!
I have had some issues with hosts from my viewers now being showed on my activity feed. They do show up when I’m being raided from another streamer but not the small hosts the size of a auto host. Any suggestions what I should try to make every host show up? 🙂
Thanks!
@queen mason "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."
And there isn’t a way to override that? I know that it says the cause is the changes to the API but I didn’t have a problem with SLOBS regarding hosts 🙂 Just love to know when people are hosting me.

commands aren't working, "!commands, !ID" etc" is there a quick fix im missing?
is there a way to reconnect my chat bot? none of my commands are working in OBS Live right now
@pliant tree 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
So what can I do to fix it?
ok that worked. I just have to leave it as StreamElements right now, i'll fix the kinks later. thanks guys
whats ur bitrate @river cloud ?
@pliant tree I deleted all my extra scenese that I didnt need and it helped alot
oh wow. yea, sometimes even though the scenes aren't active, they still draw CPU

When I click "stop showing on stream" the sound returns.
Can anyone help me with this issue? 😦
@quaint skiff You have to add the media request widget to your overlay otherwise when you hit show on stream it will go to nothing and you wont hear or see anything on your obs until you hit don't show on stream
😄
I have been using this widget for two years 🙂 So, I am aware of that, love.
@quaint mural
Like I said, out of nowhere, when I click "show on stream" it goes silent, for no apparent reason.
I went ahead and created a new media share widget and this new one actually works! 😄 I don't know what happened to my other widget, but its all bugged out.
@quaint mural Thank you for your assistance 

Sometimes it just needs a little refresh 😄
I know it can bug out everyone once in awhile I should of clarified that Apologizes. Have an awesome day @quaint skiff

@quasi plover Account Merging - Please note:
- Merging accounts only allows faster ways to switch between accounts

Hello, excuse me for disturbing you but I have a problem with OBS studio and streamelements. I'm just explaining, my connection has no bug, it's even perfect but on OBS I'm at 0 kb / s, I don't know why, someone could help me please that would be really nice !
hi i'm trying to make the switch from SLOBS to OBS with SE and I'm having quite the time transitioning
Was wondering if there was any assistance I could attain in doing so because frankly I have no idea
who ?
So I was trying to use one of the SE overlays
and I don't know if its user error
or what, but it will not import LOL
my alerts and stuff are all there but I cannot get the overlays and such to import correctly.
its either half cut off or missing entirely

ok thanks you
how can i put the chat in dark mode in the obs?
answered in #general-chat
I am trying to sign out of my obs.live and sign my husband in so he can stream but it's only partly logging me out. So it shows his chat and twitch activity (followers etc.) But the actual gameplay screen and stream goes to my account even though I logged out and logged him in!
@upbeat hound Did you change Settings>Stream?
No.... clicked streamelements at the top and log in
Connect his account on OBS (Settings>Stream) and obs.live (StreamElements > Logout/Login)
is this the proper setup for anyone else using the GoXLR (mini) I believe it is but the soundbar moves along with my desktop/game/system audio yet its tilted as the Mic/Aux

@bitter sun 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
@honest echo It doesnt really help do you have a link for overlays/themes
@rugged quail To add your overlays to OBS, add a new browser source in your scene. Paste your overlay URL in the browser source properties, set the dimensions to 1920x1080 (unless you changed them on the website) and check Shutdown source when not visible. https://youtu.be/KDvLynUqXI4

Hey can anyone help me with media share. It wont show video but I can get audio.
@hidden temple did you add the media request widget on your overlay?
Yes
@hidden temple Right click on the BrowserSource > Properties > Scroll down a bit > Refresh cache of current page
Yes thanks
I recently changed apps from SLOBS, I´ve been trying for months to get the FFZ emotes to appear in the chat widget (right now they appear as just text). I hope someone can help me with that.
@fervent marlin have you enabled the twitch add-ons on OBS?
Yes
I have them marked in OBS Studio, and on the streamlabs page where i got the URL for the chat
Do you see the emotes on the web editor (on StreamElements' site)?
Do you mean on an overlay?
So the link gets me to my overlays
On SE
I made one just to check
And the emotes also appeared as just text unfortunately
This is an example, i just tried it
let me check
Sure, no problem
Twitch add-on?

👍
