Hello, I’m at currently using obs.live with restream.io to multi stream. Is there a way to see my activity feed for both twitch and fb all in one?

nova scaffold
#

I suggest a popup activity feed for the secondary platform as a small browser source.

frank yew
#

How would I do that? I tried poping out the streamelements activity feed while under the fb channel but when I input in into Obs it defaulted to the twitch activity feed

normal jackal
frank yew
#

Wouldn’t that take a lot of resource?

nova scaffold
#

this is less problematic than running 2 instances etc.

Im trying to change the Twitch interface of stream elements to Youtube. How do I do that?
In the app itself I still have the Twitch chatbox and twitch notifications but how do I change that? If it is possible

wooden flare
#

🤔 So it's impossible for me to test the Stream Chat from Streamelements without being public? (I was doing a test stream on Unlisted on Youtube)

im having trouble with video on command if anyone can help?

idle sedge
#

hey guys ive been told that game music can be copyrighted claimed on videos. is the media requester on obs copyright free?

kindred fox
#

no

#

it queues up music via YouTube

idle sedge
#

oh ok. is there anything i can add to obs thats not copyrigh claimed?

kindred fox
#

your best bet is something like Pretzel.rocks or streambeats

idle sedge
#

how do i add that?

kindred fox
#

You would simply play the music and it should come through assuming your headphones are what the audio is playing in. You'll need to adjust the volume wherever you're playing the music so it does not drown you out in OBS

idle sedge
#

so it can play in the background and the destop audio mix on obs will pick it up?

#

and yes im using headphonesd

#

ok pretzel rocks seems to work well. thank you 🙂

i purchased some alert overlays and when i upload them to the streamelement overlay editor, the person's name won't appear in the box?

nova scaffold
nova scaffold
#

By default - always enabled, but for custom overlays - please check settings.

crimson snow
#

the ones i got are just .webm files @nova scaffold

flat snow
#

i also have a problems. im trying to use an overlay but when i put in the url for the overlay into obs, its only showing a corner of the actual overlay

crimson snow
#

^ you might have to change the size of the browser source on obs to 1920x1080 or whatever your size is. i had the same issue before @flat snow

#

'sup amigos. Is there any way to group audio sources so I can use a compressor filter on that particular group? When I group or scene-nest the audio input sources, It's only possible to apply video filters >.<. Would like to sidechain a complete soundboard and rather don't have a row of a singular audio-files in the mixer either

flat snow
#

@crimson snow i dont know what u mean by that. imma just show u a screenshot

crimson snow
#

@flat snow so on the first img or the bigger one, chane the height to 1920 and width to 1080 and save

flat snow
#

got it now. Thanks!

crimson snow
#

no problem! glad i could help

nova scaffold
#

And they show alerts with names.

crimson snow
#

right. but the names arent appearing in the box. if i select the 'text over image' layout no name appears. and then sometimes the animations dont update correctly

nova scaffold
#

since you are dealing with imported files, you need to adjust the size

crimson snow
#

change it how. i scaled the imported files cause it had cropped them weirdly originally. and ive messed with some of the text settings already but so far no luck

#

Hey guyz having issues with Obs live it happened today no audio when i transition from one scene to another all my other audio inputs work fine ..also i noticed athough i'm on a selected scene it's greyed out and it says no source selected... any ideas how to resolve this

nova scaffold
#

You can adjust the text position later, first figure out where it is 🙂

crimson snow
#

the alertbox is 1920x1080. i changed that asap. and when i change the layout the text appears, it just wont appear in the box when i change it back

My dropped frames were so high, yesterday 1% for over an hour and in 5 min it was at 86% and it was unwatchable. Is there a solution?

nova scaffold
#

2nd - change ingest server for your streaming platform (twitch has like 20, YT has 2 etc.)

nova scaffold
#

3rd - there are test tools that can help you check where the issue happens.

nova scaffold
sinful hound
#

ok thanks

nova scaffold
#

But with 86% loss my first recommendation is - ask your provider

Hello. My streamelements bot is not working on streamlabs obs, why? it works normally in Obs.
I had created a custom name, so it stopped working and the option to change to the default disappeared from streamlabs

#

@brave flower 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.

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

@candid egret 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

how can I get it without it making my OBS crash ?????

full thunderBOT
#

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

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

Note: If you are not able to follow the above steps, open your file explorer and go here: %appdata%\obs-studio\crashes and provide the last listed file.

regal finch
#

there are 7 identical files

wise silo
#

@regal finch 1) Uninstall OBS.Live and OBS Studio completely, but leave this unchecked https://i.imgur.com/LBaHgM1.png
2) Download and install OBS Studio from https://obsproject.com/
3) If it doesn't crash, install OBS.Live too.

  • It's fixed? Nice!

  • It crashes again?

  1. Repeat steps 1 and 2
  2. Duplicate the current "Scene Collection" at the very top of OBS, call it something like "Backup" and remove all browser sources in that backup
  3. Install OBS.Live and see if it still crashes
  • If yes, repeat steps 1 and 2, leave OBS.Live uninstalled, and we can troubleshoot further from there.

I still can not get a custom bot to work in OBS.live, it's really getting quite frustrating now. I've literally uninstalled OBS, OBS.live, parted the bot, logged out my account on both OBS and the dashboard, disconnected the StreamElements connection in Twitch on both my account and my bot's account. No matter what it'll will just remain on this and not change.

#

So i just installed Kappagen to have some emote explosions, but i noticed it added a bit of lag to my stream when activated, so i think I might wait until I have a better CPU before using it.

#

Given this, will the Streamelements overlay still use CPU if it is disabled in my scenes? If not, I'll just go ahead and disable the streamelements overlay in each scene rather than delete it so i can add it later.

I have a problem with my obs lagging without even streaming or recording! I have a 2070 and i9 9900k and didn't have this problem before, and I have the same settings and everything as before. My stream also got 30 fps when streaming warzone on lowest settings! I don't know what to do 😦

@rough cargo Obs.live is a plugin for OBS Studio for the best OBS support, please join their Official Discord @ discord.gg/obsproject

wind vessel
#

So, my OBS keeps freezing on startup of the app, but ONLY when I have the obs.live plugin installed. As soon as I uninstall just the plug in and restart, no freezes. Reinstall the plugin, and boom, freezing again. Suggestions?

full thunderBOT
#

@wind vessel 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.

wind vessel
#

my last stream or two logs to compare freeze vs no freeze?

#

I'll reinstall your plugin and then send you a log file after a crash.

#

10 restarts without plugin: no freeze. 1 with: freeze. log incoming.

full thunderBOT
#

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

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

Note: If you are not able to follow the above steps, open your file explorer and go here: %appdata%\obs-studio\crashes and provide the last listed file.

@wind vessel 1) Uninstall OBS.Live and OBS Studio completely, but leave this unchecked https://i.imgur.com/LBaHgM1.png
2) Download and install OBS Studio from https://obsproject.com/
3) If it doesn't crash, install OBS.Live too.

  • It's fixed? Nice!

  • It crashes again?

  1. Repeat steps 1 and 2
  2. Duplicate the current "Scene Collection" at the very top of OBS, call it something like "Backup" and remove all browser sources in that backup
  3. Install OBS.Live and see if it still crashes
  • If yes, repeat steps 1 and 2, leave OBS.Live uninstalled, tell us that it didn't work and use your old default scene collection again.

Or I guess I can just forgo the custom bot name and run obs without the plugin. Thank you!

Hey guys, I am trying to run a test stream offline as I am playing an unreleased beta build of a game for the Developer so I want it to be perfect. I understand I need to put '?bandwidthtest=true' after my stream key in order to emulate the stream for a test drive.

However I can't seem to find the place inside OBS Live to actually put in my stream key and add this to the end, All I could find was an 'Enable Bandwidth Test Mode' but no place to actually enter my stream key and add the ?bandwidthtest=true to the end.

Is the bandwidth test mode the latest way to successfully go live without someone seeing or being alerted or am I still missing something?

Any help appreciated! Thanks! 🙏

@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

Hello, question about streaming. I currently have the OBS.live linked to twitch.. is there a way to multi-stream to youtube as well?

StreamElements does not support multistreaming

Not natively.

There's OBS plugins or thirdparty options.

You can - but i wouldn't but that's a different story

#

SLOBS is a "set one click and forget"

@tender python how to solve this bro 😩

tender python
#

dont scale output if you want 1080p out

#

watch the video.

#

Regardless, i would not stream 1080p60

#

but that's my opinion.

steady field
#

720p?

if you want 60fps, yes.

Hi, I'm having trouble with my alerts, I've set them up in Stream Elements and used URL in Browser source on OBS.live, but when I test them the only show half the alert and sometimes the alert doesnt even show up

#

Can anyone help me with this issue?

tender python
tender python
# steady field 720p?

Basically:
1080p60 = 12000 Kbps
1080p30 = 6000 Kbps
720p60 = 6000 Kbps
720p30 = 3000 Kbps

#

and because 12000 is impossible..

wary dew
#

what about 864p60

tender python
#

Not a clean dividable resolution

#

would avoid.

#

unless your base canvas is also 864, but then again, not a clean dividable integer.

#

while it's fractional

#

you get wierd .25 edges

livid aspen
#

I've tried that doesn't change

full thunderBOT
#

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

I would like to start up a dual PC stream. I have OBS on both computers and would like to do an OBS to OBS transfer. How do I accomplish this?? Also the capture card I have I do not believe is being recognized by my second PC.

karmic grotto
#

if the capture card isn't being recognized then u can't. The setup is pretty straight forward, capture card will catch image from gamingPC and display as a an source in OBS then it will route the img to the monitor u use. then the second PC will stream the image

#

the gaming pc doesn't need to have obs or anything else

hello - I changed my name on twitch and had to download OBS again on a new PC. None of my commands work anymore coming from SE. I've logged in to SE under my new name and it seems to recognize the name change.

Any advice on getting my commands to work again on twitch?

full thunderBOT
#

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

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

alright, just making some custom alerts and the alert text keeps going below the video. Even tho I press the text above the video button its still below. and the only way to get it on top is with a text animation. any suggestions?

full thunderBOT
#

Text not showing up over your alerts? Go to the Advanced Text Settings and set the top margin to 50, you can work your way to the right position from there.

#

i can see the text faded out in the correct spot

#

so when the video ends it shows up in the correct spot

nova scaffold
#

So you need to work with the layout and margin

#

if you are working with custom CSS (since you said custom) then this overrides all settings and you need to code it.

yes I probably do! thank you

Go to that link from your respective browser and it should give you the link.

OBS Studio has a dock for Twitch, so you need to add the Dock back

ON OBS.LIVE what does (ignore streaming setting recommendation) mean?

quick atlas
granite vessel
#

i stream on 7k bitrate so if i enable it i cant stream on 7k??

ocean rivet
#

non-partners are capped at 6k bitrate so I'd assume OBS caps it at that number aswell, if you're partnered you might want to try unchecking that option if you see OBS is capping your bitrate at around that number

granite vessel
#

o ok

#

ill uncheck it thx

ocean rivet
#

np, just make sure you keep it under 8k since thats the most twitch will allow for partners

Hi, I'm not sure if this fits here but, I need help on my follower alerts going through to stream elements. I have asked about it and there are quick fix but it doesn't work for me.
So, I started to use stream elements after making my set up from using twitch studios. It all worked fine until I think until i deleted twitch studios. Now the follower alerts don't work but raid and hosting alerts works. I don't want to have to reinstall twitch studios for it to work.
Any help would be appreciated.

Hello! I have been setting up my streamelements stuff and for some reason when i transferred everything over from streamlabs it tripled my donation numbers that are recorded? I'm confused how to reset it to where it should be.

echo halo
#

Thank you so much!

ocean rivet
#

I only see two tips, are those the ones you need to reset?

echo halo
#

yes, so the tips were only 20 and 10 and they are showing as 60 and 30 on my donation bar as well as my scrolling alert

ocean rivet
#

you mean for your donation goal right?

echo halo
#

yes

ocean rivet
#

you can manually update that number on your goal settings

tulip hamlet
#

Regarding the ticker, how many times did you use the import tool? I'm guessing three?

echo halo
#

uhh I thought I only imported once, but i might have accidentally done it 3 times

ocean rivet
#

Dashboard > Activity feed on the left > Widget data on the right > Goals tab

#

and then you can manually enter 30

#

both donations were correctly imported so its just the goal amount that needs a manual update

echo halo
#

ah! I found it. thank you. and I think Nethyr is on to something, I think i imported twice, thinking i did it wrong, and then a third time.

So I'm not sure what the problem is, but when I stream using OBS, it doesn't give me the proper stream duration or viewers. It usually just stays on 6 seconds.

No. I can get one next time I stream though

I have a recent issue with regards to output scaled resolution. This happen when I download the OBS thru streamelements download page.

#

My output cannot go higher 720p, before I can go 1080p even further 1440p. Need help.

#

Should I redownload the OBS from the official page and not thru streamelement download page?

I have found my work around. I use 26.0.2 and then after that I update to 26.1.1 then it works.

Hey guys. Having issues renaming the StreamElements botname on my twitch channel. Tried making an account with the desired bot name, connected it through the OBS Live setup, but it doesnt give me the chance to use "Send test message". Same if I put my original account as the botname - nothing happens. What am I doing wrong? 🙂

#

(When I press the "Approve" or "Save" after connecting the alternate account, it just closes down the window and nothing happens. Still can't pick the new account or send a testmessage)

tender python
#

just manually enter 1920x1080

#

or whatever resolution you want.

My obslive, as well as regular obs won't capture most of my games from the xbox pc app. It will capture some games so it's not an issue with that but it just seems like most of them won't capture. I've tried capturing with game capture as well as with window capture and neither work. When i use game capture it acts like it's stuck in a refresh loop.

tender python
#

only workaround would be desktop capture imo

#

the same way Netflix app is "protected" from streaming from Discord afaik

clever rivet
#

I've done all the capture options and nothing works. I was thinking it had to do with which drive the game was saved to cause other games have zero issues being captured with game capture.

tender python
#

Storage location doesn't affect capturing ability

#

tl-dr: OBS "hooks" into a program/game to grab a video stream.

#

If that hook fails > black screen.

clever rivet
#

yeah.

tender python
#

Desktop capture will 99.99% work

#

Personally i have my fallback capture setup that way in a gamecapture scene:
Game Capture (any, fullscreen) > Window (set it manually, only one window capture, nothing more) > Desktop.

#

But, because of the hassle of option two, i'm now just doing either Game or Desktop.

clever rivet
#

I used display capture and it decided to work. I sware i've tried that a million times but now it's working. Thank you so much. this has been frustrating me for a month almost now.

tender python
#

Desktop should technically always work if you have a screen that's showing 👍

#

Just make sure to not show any personal or private stuff on said screen

#

because well, desktop capture 😄

clever rivet
#

yeah lol. Thats the only issue. I just won't stream certain games I guess cause it's capturing now but it covers everything even though it 's almost last on the list...

Then you have multiple browser sources in your scene and other scenes sending you alerts

do you actually have multiple overlays in one scene?

@slim saddle 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
