hi everyone for some reason i can hear my mic output through my headphones but i have audio monitoring turned off. any ideas?
Does that only apply to OBS?
yes
That is indeed something you have to sort out through your OBS audio settings
ive tried everything i have all monitoring turned off
but i can still hear myself unless i mute my mic on my headset
In that case, I suggest you try going to OBS' discord and see what is the issue
@toxic fern pls..find the solution if u can..i must go to sleep now..u can write me in pvt if u want! thx for help 😦
@elder umbra hit us up when you wake up, we will attempt to fix it together 🙂
Hello, I used to have a custom bot name for my chat.. However I wanted to change that name and it worked for a little while, but now the bot name doesn't show up. I tried reconnecting the bot and that didn't work. I then made an entirely new bot account for the renamed chat bot, but everytime I try to connect it the option doesn't show up for the username... Is there something I am doing wrong? Iv'e tried parting and rejoining the bot. That didn't work. I uninstalled and reinstalled OBSLive and StreamElements OBS app, that didn't work. I parted the bought, signed out of the dashboard, resigned in and joint the bot again, that didn't work either.
Do you mean that the custom name does not show up in the available names in the custom bot name, or does not appear in chat?
I was able to get it to link to restream and was able to stream to FB YouTube and Twitch so we are all good!
please help me! unable to view live comments in obs (using stream elements)
Please logout and log back into OBS.Live
hi , i could not screen mirror my iphones screen to my obs, what should i do ?
the overlay is not showing on obs after setting it up
@errant spear 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
but i do not have this option
Scroll down please
What version of OBS are you on?
its the latest version
....
the one from streamelements web
That is obs.live.... not obs.
Guys! Hello 🙂 I cannot login on my streamelements app. It lets me do streams but when I try to log in, the page for login just stays white.

New to OBS? Here is a 4 step quick start guide

Want to learn even more? Here is an in-depth overview
https://obsproject.com/wiki/OBS-Studio-Overview
Hey, is that on the website?
thank you guys 🙂
no, it's on the app 😠
I already tried this and it's still not working 😦
hey team, trying to display the obs.live docks in a particular way. I want the activity feed to be next to the chat but can't seem to snap it in. Only above and below each other. is this possible?
just figured it out lol I feel dumb
What app?
Please make sure that the overlay is added correctly to your OBS, as I have tested the alerts and they work fine on my end
they have always worked fine on streamelements web preview
they're still not working on obs studio
everything else work (raid, host, sub)
Are you sure those are the StreamElements alerts and not the backup SL alerts?
I deleted all I have left of streamlabs, I just have streamelements now
the only thing I have is the Streamlabs chat, because I couldn't modify the streamelements chat like I wanted it to look like
but all the alerts are from streamelements
Do you have your OBS open right now?
yes
oh this time it worked
I don't know what changed but it worked thanks ! I won't touch anything !
it was my pleasure
thank you so much, it's been weeks streaming without the follow alerts 
The custom name does not appear in the available names. It let's me sign in to the bot account but when I go through the bot test and then hit the authorize button the custom bot name doesn't appear in the list. It just shows StreamElements, my own username, and "custom bot name"
You'll need to add the custom name to the available names
How do I do that?
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
@rugged quail I've done that already... This is my issue. When I do all that the custom name will not appear.
I will login, do the recapta test thing, hit authorize, and it just goes back tot he original list. The bot account name doesn't show up and the "test message" button does not activate, it just stays greyed out.
I've had a bot account on there. Yesterday I changed the bot name and it was fine. Then later on the bot account wasn't showing up and this custom bot name issue started happening.
I've tried parting the bot and making it rejoin in multiple ways. I tried creating a whole different bot account. Yet, I am still getting this issue
Understood, we're looking into this
Okay, thank you.
"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 (don't forget to add a space before the current path)
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."
Do that and try again.
I don't see the Console Tab :/
Oh wait, I found it
YES! That worked! Thank you so much!
What's the difference between changing the output resolution in the "Output" tab and the "Video" tab?
Hi! I have my bots custom name is set to the same name as my channel. I now wanted to create a different channel with a different name for my bot, but the option to connect it to a channel disappeared. I can only select stream elements and my current name. Can anyone please help?
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
Ty, but for step 3 the custom bot name shows up as the current account name. I don't see that. I assume I need to somehow release it from that account
"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 (don't forget to add a space before the current path)
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."
For step 4 it says this site cannot be reached
- what console?
Wait I got the localhost to work. Link was entered incorrectly
Can you please tell me where the console tab is
I can't find it under activity feed
Oh wait my bad I see it
In the browser not program

@full thunder so now I can make another account on twitch just for my bot?
And if so can I use the new twitch account for multiple bots?
@elder saffron you can use another account but you have to make it or have access to the actual login info if it's another name.
Thank you and can I use the same account for another bot too?
hello, anyone who wants to help me with overlays that don't work?

is there a way to add a command which will play a specific youtube video on command for example !yt link to youtube video?
i do it!
i am trying to figure how to play a specific yt videos on stream on command
@elder umbra Right click on the BrowserSource > Properties > Scroll down a bit > Refresh cache of current page
@full thunder done..nothing changes
delete the browser source and add it again
@wary dew any overlay i try to add it's the same..
i take 1 prerset to try and..thats it 😦
It's usually fixed when relogging on the website and in OBS
but you say you already did both of those things
so the next step is to remove it completely and re-adding it
@wary dew are you talking about the overlay?
the source in OBS
@wary dew I have removed the resource 10 times and he does not want to know ..
is it possible that something happened if i reset the access token while i was live?
DM me the link you are putting in the source
that could be a thing yes
then you would probably have new links for the overlays
@wary dew but i tried 100 times to re-enter everything all over again ..
no need to ping me every message
Known crashing issues with OBS live? on and off crashing with no reports with OBS live. Wiping my computer and changing capture cards have not helped
The most recent windows crash log shows the crash might have come from a plugin for obs-browser.exe
Heya. I having big problems with lagging sound when im live. Ita clipping like crazy. Sounds like im flipping a killswitch. I know more than me having that problem.
How can i solve that?
i acidentally got rid of my chat and notifications, how do i get them back?
Good Sunday to you! I have just purchased overlays and am curious how you have the “last tipper, last follower, last subscription” names appear and stay on the overlay
I have a problem that OBS only triggers the host alerts when someone raids me. Like, I always have to manually repeat it to get it on the screen because the host alert "overwrites" the raid alert. Is it possible that the host alert only happens during... hosts? And not raids?
Hi im struggling to figure out how to use a layout i paid to have done. I dont know how exactly to use my custom one

Hello, I have a problem, could you please help me ❤️
Hi! Since updating obs.live I can not seem to find the place that I used to activate my custom chatbot? Is there another way I can get my custom chatbot name to show up? I used to just have to open the program and then the custom chatbot would auto show up on stream, now it doesnt show up and I can't even fint the section where I 'send a test message' to check that its activated. How can I fix this?
its located in the activity feed burguer menu
When I switched from Streamlabs for some reason my alerts don't work anymore, does anyone know how to either create a new alert system or how to fix the current one?
streamlabs?
yes
u should add a streamelements overlay in your obsLive or SLOBS with an alertbox
I have the overlay completely set up but it just doesn't go off when I receive anything in my activity feed
i want to add a merch product rotator to my overlay but it is not rotating between my products how do i fix that?
this is what my alert sounds browser overlay looks like
I got it figured out, nvm
xd no problem

hello, I'm having some trouble with BTTV emotes showing up on OBS.Live. They seem to show up on my channel if I have it open on my browser (assuming this is because I have the chrome extension installed) but it doesn't show up on my stream chat that's docked on OBS. Is there a BTTV plugin I'm missing?
streaming platform?

Hello everyone! I'm having trouble with overlays on streamelements. I created one and added a gif to it. I added it copying the link to OBS but it won't show up in OBS when I preview the overlay. Any help?
@restive lodge The default resolution for StreamElements overlays (theme and custom) is 1920x1080. Please add them in OBS at their full resolution and use CTRL+F to fit to screen if necessary. You can then downscale your stream in OBS settings > Video if you'd like https://i.imgur.com/6bWXxjR.png
That worked, thank you so much!
can you elaborate which events are not triggering?
the alerts are only working occasionally. 3 follows only 2 worked. 3 cheers. only first and third popped up. ect
Do you see all those events (all followers, all cheers) in your activity feed?
Yes all the events were in the feed
Please reload your overlays, and everything should work fine afterwards
I don't have that menu anymore and can't find it anywhere.
click on the streamelements icon on the top, go to docks make sure the activity feed dock is there
When I go to view>docks>twitch activity feed, my normal twitch feed comes up without the bot option that used to be there
you shouldn't go view, you should go to StreamElements
I dont have the streamelements option?
Do you have OBS.Live installed?
can you bring up the entire program? Because this does not look like OBS.Live
Yeah since I pressed update it looks like this, its so weird!
When I click on the Streamelements OBS.live desktop shortcut I posted above, this comes up:
But has no streamelements tab
or anything I used to have before
I'd try reinstalling OBS.Live if I were you
i believe the obs.live desktop icon just opens obs, as obs.live is a plugin for obs, try reinstalling obs.live and make sure you have the latest version of obs too
I also tried that already. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling and it still came up like this, its soooo weird
Ok
I will try reinstalling
so im also wondering, can obs.live see events from other services, for example if i used stream labs for donations, would obs.live show this in my recent events ?
No.
Nope, StreamElements tools can only detect donations coming through on our donation link
Thanks I went and installed the program again and it worked!! So weird that when I updated it, the plugin disappeared? Oh well, thanks for the help 🙂
hi
been trying to troubleshoot OBS live
sources aren't showing like before when first installed
Can you share a screenshot please?
I have a problem that OBS only triggers the host alerts when someone raids me. Like, I always have to manually repeat it to get it on the screen because the host alert "overwrites" the raid alert. Is it possible that the host alert only happens during... hosts? And not raids?
How can i fix this, followers etc wont show, but in streamlabs its okay
@tepid rover 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.
@hybrid mountain the host event will happen if Twitch sends us the host event first and the raid even will be ignored. 9 out of 10 times afaik the host event will come before the raid event.
That being said you can turn off the host event and just have the raid one
alright, thought so! thank you for answering :)
hey wassup i am trying to setup the call to action follow animation and i would like to add a delay to it so i dont have to press a button. any idea how i can do that?

@muted smelt Obs.live is a plugin for OBS Studio for the best OBS support, please join their Official Discord @ discord.gg/obsproject
@high cairn overlays do not support links. IF you want to have URLs, its best to add them to the description of your stream
@tepid rover i just followed and showed up. Have you been using us before?
Yes i have @shy mountain
Is this an area I can ask about stream elements overlays ?
Yeah you can do it here. This is the channel for the OBS.Live support but that's fine.
I can’t seem to put some text over a certain part of my overlay where it needs to go
^
If that is in the alertbox - make sure the layout settings are correct (text over video/image).
I saw a few minor bugs in the editor where the text becomes transparent.
Please save the overlay and check in browser/OBS if the text is is correct.
Can someone help me, i've posted acc id many times now, nothing is happening
Ive tried to install the OBS and its giving me a VCRUNTIME140_1.dll was not found. Ive tried reinstalling and get the same error and it wont launch

Hi everyone, I had setup my bot to use my twitch username, and it worked for a day or so. Now, none of my commands or anything will work under the custom name. Only with StreamElements as the bot name. I've signed out, signed back in. Made the bot part the channel and come back, but none of it fixed it. Thank you!
Hello. I'm having issues with muting my mic in OBS.
I go into the settings and assign a combination of keys, of which I've tried many, and it doesn't mute the mic when I press them
I also tried the other keybinds to see if someone else was wrong, but they all work fine. The mute function is the only one that doesn't work. I recently got a mic that doesn't have a physical mute button on it so it's a pain if I have no way to mute it. Maybe someone can help me. Thank you ❤️
It works in SLOBS just fine. But for whatever reason the mute/unmute key in SE. Live just doesn't do anything
I fixed the issue. I had to add an additional audio source to the sources tab so that it could be muted seperately from the normal mic/aux area. Strange. Got it working tho!
Hello helpdesk. I'm running into an issue where I can't set up my custom bot name in OBS.Live. I have check marks next to the 3 things needed to have a custom chat bot name, however when I choose to sign into my bot account and hit "Authorize", the chat bot name doesn't appear under the "Current bot name" list. I would like some help setting up my custom chat bot to be my bot account please. Thank you.

Hi there, I am trying to attach a theme in OBS live and have been unsuccessful as the steamelements themes give links but the obslive wants a computer file. How do I fix this?
Hi, is there a way to switch between two profiles without logging in and out? I am trying to do that now, but my activity feed only sticks to one profile, requiring me to logout of Streamelements and into the other channel. I have full control of both streamelements accounts.
@cunning crag unfortunately no.
Asking again . Ive tried to install the OBS and its giving me a VCRUNTIME140_1.dll was not found. Ive tried reinstalling and get the same error and it wont launch
Thanks for the reply. I've tried logging out and back in from within OBS.Live and I've also tried these steps that you've provided. Unfortunately, I only get to step 5, which is to authorize the bot account, however when I go back and check the drop down menu of available bots, the newly added bot account that I just authorized does not show up in the list.
so I just need to login and logout of streamelements right? but the profiles will still keep the same stream key/etc
Someone please help. I've Uninstalled and reinstalled multiple times

Hello, I am trying to import my scenes from Stream Labs OBS to Stream Elements OBS and it keeps saying failed.
Import can fail when:
- there are copyrighted assets from Streamlabs in the scenes
- unsupported media files
- media files being bigger then 100MB
Thankyou! I'm assuming I'll have to import them myself
Lol okay
I did that and it's still saying failed. It uploads all the media files and then when it does to download it fails. My overlays are my own and I don't believe they are to large of a file
What's the biggest file size?
20 MB
And its an audio file
It fails when trying to import alerts
Which I imported in the dashboard already
how can i change de minium price of donation in my live stream in streamelementsTip?? pls help me
hi i'm aving an issue getting the media request to work. it only shows up like this. I've tried logging out and logging back in but it doesn't seem to help
Cant decide whether its a twitch issue or obs live. Everything is setup and functions the way it is supposed to work. Apart from that, I cannot here the sound alerts through my headphones, but only plays for the viewers. How can I hear my own sound alerts?
What does OBS mean by "failed to authenticate with twitch"???
Is this the wrong place to ask that?? ^
Is there a way within OBS to capture sounds from a specific, for instance Spotify, so that I can put music into my stream without catching every sound my computer has going on?

I just updated obs, and now nothing works... And it still asks me to update. Tried uninstalling to install again, now it won't even open? What happened with that update?
how do you add the overlay to OBS Live from their website? I can't find out how
Hi guys. Where do I send a request to merge my accounts?
@worldly dirge Account Merging - Please note:
- Merging accounts only allows faster ways to switch between accounts
- Merging accounts does not allow data sharing between accounts - different streaming platforms, different type of events
- Merging accounts allows duplicating/sharing overlays between the accounts
If you understand the limitations of merging and want to proceed, please find the JWT tokens (!jwt) from both accounts you want to merge and you will be directed to DM them to a staff member
@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
You can find your JWT token on your account channels page (Show Secrets to reveal the token): https://streamelements.com/dashboard/account/channels
READ ME: This is a private security token. Do NOT share this token here or other public places, only with a StreamElements staff member in private.

As i've come up with a way to Visualise shout outs and i'd love to share it with people
you don't see the chat in your preview window or you mean you dont have your chat as a separate window inside obs?

Hey there, so when I have StreamElements LIVE plugged into OBS, it maxes out my CPU to 100%!! OBS alone I'm running at 5%. That said, I'd love to keep using SE but its just not working for me as a plugin. Is that standalone app still available?
Ground control, i think it's called
how can i switch to regular obs? i saw it was a setting to switch back but i dont see it anymore. and i want to do this without uninstalling obs.live
You should be able to log out of OBS.Live, and use the default docks instead of the SE ones.
OBS live is hogging 80% of my system resources
It may help to uninstall/re-install OBS.Live and see if the issue persist. Ground Control is outdated and may not have all the features you'd want.
that's not cool. 😦
but ok
I just did what you suggested @quick atlas and it Maxed my CPU again and now it won't dip past 50%. OBS vanilla has my CPU at 5%. This is unacceptable!
😦 why can't we have ground control?
OBS.Live is basically the updated/replacement Ground Control, so GC isn't really being worked on anymore unfortunately.
However, OBS.Live shouldn't be using up resources like that. I know sometimes multiple versions can be running in task manager and you have to end them all to get it to work right.
Yeah ive been keep a close eye on my task manager, that's not happening. however uninstalling and reinstalling did have a minimal effect.
sadly i can't just go buy a new PC to handle this load as I have a un-upgradeable laptop to work with
so i guess some decisions need to be made... which is unfortunate because i've put a LOT of hours into my SE content
i think it would be fair to your users if you didn't force them to use a plugin to OBS to use your service
not to mention that it appears completely unnecessary to do so
Is there anything specific that you were using OBS.Live for? You should be able to use base OBS and our overlays and such without the plugin. That may help with CPU usage
Hello i have 2 questions
First is how can i make it so OBS doesnt record an application's audio (spotify) I only have 1 output device
Second Can you help me with settings so i don't get bad performance. I have 8gb ram and Intel i5 with integrated Graphics
if u want obs to ignore an audio u will need to split audio somehow, ppl often uses voicemeter if i'm not wrong but u will need to search on youtube about it. As we don't do support in this "sector" directly
OK thank you
hello! i need some help with some of the SE Pay and tipping stuff. I linked both my paypal and my card information to the se pay, and when i withdrew my most recent tip which i did so about a 2 or so weeks ago i have yet to recieve said payment. what is the situation with how long these withdrawals take and how do they work because i didnt even have to log into my paypal to use it. im not sure if this is the right channel but it seemed the closest think since when i starting using obs live i set up tipping through it itself.
there isn't a pro config for performance, it should be done by testing until u find the perfect match
ok thank you
Hello, just update OBSLIVE and the Activity Feed and Chat are now just WHITE....any idea how to fix this?
Uninstall, and reinstall seems to have fixed it, but thxs
I can't connect the custom bot twitch account to my obs. I login, click on authorize and then the window disappears and nothing happens
If anyone has a solution that'd be really helpful

Hello, I signed into youtube separate from Twitch in stream elements and i cant merge them now, what do i do
@marble stirrup Account Merging - Please note:
- Merging accounts only allows faster ways to switch between accounts
- Merging accounts does not allow data sharing between accounts - different streaming platforms, different type of events
- Merging accounts allows duplicating/sharing overlays between the accounts
If you understand the limitations of merging and want to proceed, please find the JWT tokens (!jwt) from both accounts you want to merge and you will be directed to DM them to a staff member
You can find your JWT token on your account channels page (Show Secrets to reveal the token): https://streamelements.com/dashboard/account/channels
READ ME: This is a private security token. Do NOT share this token here or other public places, only with a StreamElements staff member in private.
Any staff member willing to help me with merging?
I can!
:D
i can't for the life of me get my mic audio to output on the stream, records just fine, not too sure what i did wrong
@median cargo 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.

haha i was just about to reply saying i figured it out and thats what it was! thank you
I have two separate profiles setup for restream.io and Facebook Gaming through StreamElements OBS Live. How can I switch between the two? When I try to stream with my restream.io stream key, OBS always prompts me to attempt streaming through Facebook.
StreamElements doesn't offer any multistreaming support, might have to check the OBS discord.
Yeah, I noticed that. Is there a way to turn off StreamElements, so I can multistream via my other means?
The "Start Streaming" key has since turned green as a result of integrating OBS Live, and I am thinking this is always forcing me to stream through Facebook Gaming.
You should be able to uninstall OBS.Live as you would another program, I don't think just logging out would work.
Agh. Too bad I cannot keep both simultaneously.
I would have liked to have the option to one night stream via Stream Elements to Facebook Gaming, and then the following night stream to Twitch/YouTube/Personal Facebook via restream.io.
OBS.Live is pretty much made to integrate those things into OBS
There are other features within those to use, like custom bot control, but most features are centered on those things listed.
The overlays can stay as files or be uploaded, depends on how you want to use them.
If you upload it, you would be making it into a url resource instead of a image resource
I have lost all sound to my stream... my desktop, my mic, my capture card
Hi I'm looking to stream codm to Facebook using my laptop. I was able to connect everything, record game play and its sounds and etc. But I noticed that when I turn on the in game mic, it no longer records the sounds of my phone. Is there any way to be able to use my in game mic as well as record the sounds of my game? Please send help :((
@fast dawn Obs.live is a plugin for OBS Studio for the best OBS support, please join their Official Discord @ discord.gg/obsproject
Can some one help
Hi there. Did you make any changes to your setup before that happened?
Just added overlays and new scenes
Do you see the volume bars on OBS audio sources moving when you speak into your microphone or play sounds on your system?
And added the stream elements obs live thing
Nope. Not for anything. Won’t pick up the computer mic, desktop sound, or capture card sound
Ok, so first of all, that sounds like an OBS issue, so I'd google the issue or contact OBS support directly.
Obs.live is a plugin for OBS Studio for the best OBS support, please join their Official Discord @ discord.gg/obsproject
Second, I'd also just fiddle with the audio sources advanced properties (click the cog wheel next to the audio source), or try to set up the sources and scenes again and see if the same thing happens.
not sure if i'm in the right place here but i'm having trouble with my live alerts
I can't get the second line of text to show up.
Hi!
- Which Alert are you using?
- Which line of text doesn't appear?
trying to configure the alert box. setting up the subscriber portion
im having an issue The obs.live media request dock is blank
at the top of OBS.Live -> StreamElements -> logout and login
that should fix it
okay thanks!!!
can I send a pic to show you what I mean?
And which line of text doesn't appear?
It worked thanks again!!
Sure, go ahead.

I think I sent it to you?
i don't really know how to use discord yet. still trying to figure all this out.
What's your username, please?
my twitch or stream elements or discord?
SE
thebrokenspaz
Where can I see the widget you're trying to set up?
it's in create and overlay, and I'm pretty sure I'm doing that wrong as well but yeah. create overlay, add widget, alerts, alert box, subscriber settings, variation settings
One moment please
Ok, the second line of text does in fact appear, but it's outside of the widget. If you enlarge the widget, you'll see that the second line is pushed all the way down to below the blue box.
I recommend you play with the text settings, for both the primary and secondary text. Go to the Advanced tab and play around with the settings there until the text is where and how you want it to be.
ok, i've been playing with it a bit already but I don't know how to bring the second line up...
the second line is the secondary text
that is to say, the user message portion of the text
Hello looking for help
Go ahead
hmmm.... ok so messing with that won't make the difference. I need to figure out how to move up the second line of text then.
@soft knot I just downloaded SE & am trying to import from Stream labs but it keeps failing
@brisk vessel what are you getting?
Importing scenes failed
If any of the files you're trying to import is over 30MB in size, the import would fail
this applies to elements within the scene itself
Will it work thru the website using Chrome extension?
That would only import your alerts and revenue history, not scene collection
Hi wondering why my follower alert has dissapeared from my alert box widget on my overlay editor
Can you send me a screenshot of your alerts settings?
Hello I’m getting an issue when I stream for some time both of my monitors go black for a second and my stream crashes and my game crashes then my pc freezes and I have to restart
That’s what happens
If anyone could help me I would really appreciate it.
here is the log file
https://obsproject.com/tools/analyzer?log_url=https%3A%2F%2Fobsproject.com%2Flogs%2FJRzzPBQu9ImiQwsi
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.
It seems like there's one issue marked "critical" there that might very well cause what you're experiencing. Did you try disabling the HAGS feature?
Good luck. 🙂
thnk you
is there a reason i cannot recolor the text in the editor anymore ?
What happens when you try?
when i try and select the colors nothing chance but when i manually type in the color code it works
Are we talking about the overlay editor or OBS?
hello my logitech brio camera keeps glitching on obs and its the actual software because the camera is fine on everything else
@gusty rover try updating your Drivers
Hi! the SE tab in OBS is missing, but I get an update message. When I try to install and run obs again, the message reappears with no luck. I've tried reinstalling obs and stream elements but nothing has worked. I haven't been able to stream for weeks now. A quick reply would be appreciated.
@vast wren drivers fully up to date
Please uninstall and reinstall both OBS and OBS.Live, when you install the two, please download fresh installer files for both programs
@gusty rover define glitching
the camera image keeps cutting @rugged quail i have a clip if im allowed to send?
send it over DM please
yes sir
That didn't work unfortunately
I have no idea why
Ok, i just re-re-installed it, and it works now, thanks so much
My chat appears in this quality (BTW is not the image one)
try shutting down the dock and then add it back
you can close it with the X icon
ok
and then go to StreamElements -> docks -> chat
Didn't work
Try logging out and logging back into OBS.Live
Already did that BTW ik it has nothing with you but my minecraft launcher is also like that so does thatlink to anything?
Have you updated your gfx drivers recently?
yes
have you restarted your PC since? if you have, try performing roll back
yes
So should I try re installing the driver?
you can try, if that wont work roll back driver update
WDYM by roll back?
You can download a previous version of your gfx drivers, delete the current ones and install the old ones, that's called a rollback
ok but how?
However, we cannot assist you with this, so I suggest you consult the internet for additional steps
hello i don't know where to write I had an OBS update and I can't do anything my commands don't work I don't know what to do with it and I want to stream further but without it I don't like it very much when people can't write commands you don't know what uninstalling didn't help desperate

how are all of you doing? i have a problem with obs.live unfortunately..
the way I can describe the problem is - my streamelements docks such as chat and the activity feed are laggy.. but the obs itself doesn't have any lag. streamelements emulated alerts have lag in my preview screen also..
I tried to reinstall obs.live and I still have the same problem..
allrighty, let me check
you actually saved me
it was checked before, and now I just unchecked.
thank you very much @rugged quail
❤️
hello
obs crush all time i have no idea what to do more
update drivers grafic up date windows reinstall obs 3 times
Hi,
Does it crash during specific times, such as only while you are streaming?
when i start some game and when i want to close down obs
From the log, it seems you have multiple game captures. Can you try to use only one?
Do you have multiple games open simultaneously?
Go over your sources, make sure you have only one game capture source.
my chat in OBS turned from the comments into facebook. how do i put it back?
Dos anyone know if there are any plans to add a Predictions panel into OBS Live for managing Twitch predictions?
how do you set up se on obslive because i've set the bot and tipping up and it wont work
im the only one who is having trouble with twitch and obs?
my overlay was working yesterday on obs then when i open obs today all the files are there but overlay is not showing
Has the overlay source gone underneath other sources?
how do i test out my alerts in the application?
@stiff abyss 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
Hey my viewers never update ive got 5 people talking in my chat but yet it only shows 1 viewer
is there anyway i can refresh something?
I added the overlays and its not allowing me to see it in OBS - so when i click the scenes its just a black box
This is all I'm getting, it's like it's not loading the scene from the overlay
@mossy sand OBS > Settings > Advanced > Scroll down > Enable or disable Browser Source Hardware Acceleration, depending on its current state > Restart OBS
https://i.imgur.com/ggMe9ZE.png
Disable that
You're a saint
My streamelements is playing a totally random sound from soundalerts but not my actual alerts but my alerts are set up in streamlabs. When I streamed earlier if I got a follow it played both sounds and I dont need it to play both sounds, any ideas?
You're welcome! 
I have a question. i will switch from streamlabs obs to StreamElemtens Live obs studio. whenever I try import stream labs obs overlay and more
I get this message
what can i do?
Usually that happens when there are big video files in the Streamlabs alertbox etc. Please make sure no video file etc. is bigger than 30MB.
Not sure if this is the right place, but how do I download an offline backup of my overlay?
@rugged quail You don't.
oh
Allo! I am having issues with my bot name! Please help! @here
Clean install of OBS live
Separate Twitch account for custom bot name
Tips all set up
It has worked in the past and now is not working
Unable to successfully link Twitch bot account- it just goes back to the Activity feed/settings menu when I say "OK" to authorize the link.
Please help, thank you!
I will bake you cookies. I bake amazing cookies.
@silent sorrel "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 (don't forget to add a space before the current path)
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."
Try that solution^
@marsh goblet do! I'll report back my findings. BTW I don't think bots will appreciate my cookies...
As long as it works 🙂
hello when i am streaming warzone my stream keep flashing but only for warzone it doesn't do it for cold war can you help

will try it thank you
It worked!!
Thank you!!! And thank you @full thunder ❤️ ❤️
Good day everyone. If this has already been answered, I apologize, I did check pins too. Every time I start a new stream with OBS Studio, obs.live plugin is attached, I have to log out, then log back into the SE part of OBS, in order for the bot to do shoutouts, messages in Twitch chat when I go live, etc. Moderation works (spam, links, etc), but no message in chat when it happens. I did perform the custom bot name, and it is my channel name, as shown in the pinned message. Does that have anything to do with the issue I'm having?
So how do I port my Alertbox into my OBS Live stream? Like right now I just have my webcam and monitor. Or is the Alertbox in there automatically?

@cedar finch 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 for the steps. 🙂 So does the issue I am having stem from the custom bot name? I will perform the steps shortly.
I've been having issues with my audio output randomly cutting out, usually when I grab out of a game or switch scenes. The only way to fix it has been to remove the source and input it again. Anyone know of a solution to this?
If I listen to the vod with max volume I can barely make out the audio, but it's really quiet and really low quality.
your pc is probably overloading while switching scenes, check your cpu/ram usage
I'll double check tonight but I think I should have a decent bit of headroom on both of those. I have a ryzen 3800 and 32gb of ram and I don't think I have an excessive amount of other stuff running
then try updating your audio drivers, I experienced something similar after a fresh win install and a drivers installation fixed it
Anyone know how to set audio from capture card from ps4? Its either echoie or cant hear me at all and you can not hear anyone I am playing with, and I watched a couple youtube videos and they said I need a second mic to be able to hear the people I am playing with?
im trying to redownload stream elements and it says failed to find locale/en-us.ini no idea why
I previously had SE OBS.Live extension and it included the ability to update my stream information. I was doing some OBS updates and this option left my side bar. I have uninstalled and reinstalled the extension but I still cannot location this option to show my stream info (name, description, game playing, etc)
go to view > docks > stream information
try completely removing obs first
ive tried that and now i cant uninstall streamelements from my pc
that option is not in my dock
then go to obs settings > stream and reconnect your twitch account
fixed it, thank you again
i somehow deleted all the files and will see if it works
ok now its saying it needs to find obs 64 bit im assuming i just need to redownload obs 64 bit
ok new question im trying to open up stream elements but it says it cant find the file for obs64.exe
Hi i need help as I have a tiltify campaign set up and its published but overlay widgets are not working for the campaign its not even an option as a campaign

Hi, my obs today upon opening was not picking up any of my desktop audio and I cannot figure out the root of this issue, I tried reinstalling realtek drivers to no avail. plz help 🙂
check your obs settings > audio and make sure you've selected a desktop audio device
We have our charity stream saturday I have reached out to Tiltify too with no progess on their end
@lunar bluff 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
anyone know why all of a sudden my bitrate and frames are dropping?
desktop audio device is selected, have tried switching out still to no avail, even tried to see if it was something a windows update would have fixed, but no 😦
Hi I just installed Streamelements and OBS Live. Using FIrefox, I tried to edit an overlay and it gave me the 'uh oh something went wrong' error. I tried it through the OBS Live plugin directly in OBS, and it gave me the same error. Also, the overlay isn't showing up in OBS. Anyone know how to fix this? Account ID: 6048234aabed77b148202d0d Also, I can create a blank overlay, if that information helps
Hello! I am currently having trouble streaming Genshin Impact. It is the only application that won't capture. Other full screen games, window, and display captures are working fine. I'm not entirely sure what else I can do to trouble shoot the issue.
EDIT: running as an admin has weirdly fixed this problem!!
Just tried it on the most current version of Chrome and ran into the same error fyi
I can pm you a screen shot of the errors in google chrome. Getting 500 error codes. Looks like it's javascript errors or bootstrap

Hi there! I'm currently having trouble with OBS.live. I'm unable to use it as I keep getting this message
@sharp lantern seems like a firewall issue try and white list OBS.live
Thanks for getting back to me. I checked and it's still whitelisted. This is the first time I've had this issue
I am also unable to access the streamelements website
What browser are you using?
Can you open the dev console (F12) and then refresh the page. GO to the consoel tab and screenshot....
uuggh
Looks like a temporary outage
including OBS.Live?
Thanks for your help @shy mountain and @vast wren

Yes both are allowing me access now
It wasn't us btw

it was your ISP most likely
So for some reason my ISP was have trouble connecting me with streamelements? Those pesky internet providers :shakes fist in anger:
if it was on our side, we'd be getting bombarded right now with a lot more reports
so most likely ISP hiccup
key word -> most likely
Haha well I appreciate you attempting to help me, nevertheless 😃 thank you!
hi can anyone assist me?
hi, how may we help?
hey, i'm using Obs (not SE OBS) but I want my tip alerts appear om my stream. is there a way i can do this without switching stream programs ?
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
And contrary to what people think OBS.Live is not another program. It's simply our addon injected into OBS.
yes but my full preset is in OBS classic and i dont want to instal everything again. i got to many custom stuff
this did not solve my problem. I only want to use the tipping alert. I can't find how to do that/
OBS Classic or Studio?
classic
Yeaaaaa
That's not gonna work out well for you.
That's not been supported for a long time.
so, is there a way i can transfer my presets to another version of obs? that will solve the problem right?
Click profile and scene collections in the menu. You should have an option to export I believe.
Then after installing OBS Studio you can import from the same things.
im gonna try. ILYK

game is in fullscreen?
Yes
does anyone know why media request stopped working. and before any ask yes there is a widget on the page and yes it was working here a BIT Ago it just stopped working saying i need a widget but i has one so ya
when was the last time ground control got a update?
I cant get tiltify accout to link to the overlay section in stream elemenents....does it have to be your own personal campaign??? or can it be a team campaign??
Question for ReStream users? I've created overlays for each platform (Copied). Facebook, Twitch, YouTube. I assume I needed to have (3) Browser Sources added and active in OBS. done... How do they all work at the same time? Wont the alerts overlap if triggered same time?
they don't, also multistreaming has some TOS problems i'd recommend looking at if its worth it. @pine locust
they will probably overlap eachother unless u place them in diff spots, but that will spam hard if u have all of them alerting at the same time, i would just make them very small alerts if u really want to do so, but not worth tbh.
jo, my problem is that I can't import an transparent video. I have already export it in quicktime and converted it in to webm
how u converted?
could you send me a website for it?
heres the script, just place it in your bin folder. Then u drop all mov files in the bin folder run it and it should convert all mov files in bin folder to webm
Does anyone know how to fix media share delay on OBS?

Does any one know where to see the viewer count in OBS.Live please help been trying to to figure this out for a while?
Keep in mind i am streaming on YouTube
I tried searching up the problem online but cant find anything
No idea i never streamed on youtube
What streaming service you use & where does the viewer count show so I could see? @pine inlet
i transitioned to stream elements
you could probably enable viewer count but i dont have it on
through overlay editing
Yeah I am using stream elements too how do you do that just asking if you can show me?
@pine inlet
yea first go to stream element's site/dashboard
then go to overlays
make a new overlay if you dont have one already
ok i dont think you can actually put a live viewer count label
its not on there but
you could set up follow/sub trains
I dont want to show on my stream i want to show on OBS the program so I can only see you get what I am trying to say?
so you can only see the concurrent viewer count?
COrrect
Very strange where does it show it because i been trying to find it and I cant find it no where on screen?
You see even when I was live today I couldnt find it & no one seems to be helping me in this chat I asked twice but no solid answer @pine inlet
Yeah I did but i didn't get no answer & as you can see in the picture there is no viewer counter no where even when live but either way thanks hope u get your issue resolved as well man! @pine inlet

also don't forget to change the platform u are going to stream on the Live section in obs settings if it didn't update auto
i dunno if profiles change the live section but i would test it if it doesn't just make a portable installation of an obs for ytb only
and leave main for twitch
Anyone have ideas why there's an error message on my obs saying "this account has not been linked"? I was trying to find some answers through google and look around on streamelements website and tried to look for answers about it.
- Open %appdata%\Elgato\StreamDeck\Plugins
- Delete the com.streamelements.obslive.sd plugin folder
i believe i did that, but will try again , thanks
HI, sorry. I think i figured out my problem but I dont understand how to fix it. When i use window capture by stream/recording is choppy, but when I use display capture it is perfect. Any insight?
when i delet that, the streamelements.live action is removed so all the fucntions like kapa are not available on stream deck
try re-installing the plugin after that
if i renistall the obslive "action" from the streamdeck it just goes back to how it was saying offline?
Hi, how can i solve the problem with twitter module? i tried lowecase, turn it off and turn it on, what can i do?
i dont know how to get rid of this error message
"this account as not been linked"
i updated the program and then this message appeared
can you take a screenshot of the whole window?
I don't recognize that, where is that source coming from?
i apologize its a 3rd party extension and i just realized it
thank you again for making me double check
all good 😄
Hi,
I hope I'm in the right chat for this here. 🙂
I have a questions about integrating 2 activity feeds into OBS.
I need one for YT and one for Twitch - is it possible to have that?
Both links are are pretty much the same and will only load the twitch activity feed for me
You can only be logged in to one account at the time
StreamElements does not support multistreaming
Hm. I'm kinda confused. Streamelements does recognize the activities for YT and Twitch, as I am logged in to the same account, just have integrated both into one account
if u are asking if they can be showed at the same activityfeed then no
that was basically what I wanted to achive. Docking both into my OBS. 🙂
But I guess your reply does answer my question @karmic grotto . 🙂 Thank you 🙏
Thanks as well @wary dew , and thanks to both of you for the quick replies. 🙏
Hello, I’m having troubles with my browser sources disappearing. When I start OBS I see all of my overlays but when I switch them they disappear. Everything else is working but my overlays. I’m using MacBook btw. It works when I use my obs on my bootcamp windows profile. Help on this would be much appreciated thank you🥺
I found that if you don't have the scenes shutdown when you're not using them, it stays. If that doesn't help any, I do apologize.
No worries, I'll try doing that. But thanks for the help anyways. Appreciate it
hi need help with my obs live: it is not showing my browser source for when I want to setup my overlay packet or for when I try and use a screen capture (on a windows laptop) please help
@rose cloak Obs.live is a plugin for OBS Studio for the best OBS support, please join their Official Discord @ discord.gg/obsproject
where can i reach streamelements support chat on the website?? someone pls help ive been in 2 different chats with support already and still no fix
@here
Is there any way to have like in SLOB, the Twitch chat with alerts on iPad with obs.live? And it's possible to control OBS + Obs.live with an Android App?
Do you mean having a chat dock open on your iPad?
hey, I'll DM you
how do i get off a black screen for my stream
didn't get what u mean, please give more detail about the issue. @terse geyser

So no plans to reintegrate Spotify
okay, thanks anyway for the support 😄
unless u are using spotify algorithms, i'd recommend just making yours spotify playlist in youtube
here are some workarounds to fasten this process https://soundiiz.com/pt/tutorial/spotify-to-youtube https://www.tunemymusic.com/pt/Spotify-to-YouTube.php

Wondering I just changed from Streamlabs obs to OBS live, and with same settings i'm experienceing alot of dropped frames with OBS or ranging from 4-5% to 10% dropped frames
ahh. and than I can use se with it
what u tried so far?
yep
Is there any troubleshooting ? I've tried Changing bitrates ranging 5-6k, (in streamlabs i had 5.5k)
thanks, I rly appreciate it
@tropic grail 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.
@tropic grail 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.
Use the Twitch Bandwidth Test to find the best Twitch server to stream to. Set Duration to Medium. You can uncheck any regions you're not near.
After the test completes, click the Share Result button to upload a screenshot, which can then be copied and pasted here.
Get Twitch Test from https://r1ch.net/projects/twitchtest.
despite of the issue is very binded to network issues, i do recommend trying to run as admin. I saw here u has a highend pc so u are good in that part
so o should follow this procedure @tropic grail
I have an issue with Alerts I use OBS to stream. When i have an alert happen, the image is cut off so you only see like a corner of the alert image.
does anyone else have this issue
it does cut off in editor?
@candid ether 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
TY SIR
watching the Ethernet performance in Task manager it seems most stable when testing London(3), should i maybe just force it on London(3) in settings?
The quality of your connection to these servers seems to be very bad. It's an issue between your connection and the Twitch servers.
Interesting
Even there, the quality is 33 out of 100. It couldn't hurt to try, but there's still an issue there.
wondering how I could go around fixing that, Got 1GB Fiber connection
Your ISP should be able to help with that.
Make sure you check the last point from here: https://obsproject.com/wiki/Dropped-Frames-and-General-Connection-Issues
This guide contains every piece of dropped frames / disconnect / network related advice we can give. If you really truly honestly super duper actually 100% tried everything in…
when ti comes to ISPs
Thanks. Going to check this out, and give vodafone a call today
Popped to 80% Quality now after testing disabling firewall, just wierd that I wasn't experiencing this with streamlabs, what could be different?
hello! i'm having trouble with adding a custom bot! i use to have one but i deleted the account and i've been trying to connect a new one/account, but it won't connect ): everytime i authorize the account it doesn't show up.
"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 (don't forget to add a space before the current path)
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."
Hard to say. There shouldn't be a difference, since you're streaming to Twitch in both cases. But we can't be sure.
hey, im having a problem with obslive, whenever I import my overlay from streamlabs, it says a file error occurred
Hi there, check to see if any of the files imported are larger than 20MB. We can't import files larger than this.
ok
its 11.287 mb
11287 kb
Two other options:
- Do you have video sources with file types we don't support? We support wemb and mp4 video sources.
- Do you have media sources in any of your scenes pointing to missing files?
I have my PayPal set up on streamelements and have it set up as link on my page. And double checked that an overlay has the tipping alert on. Yet when I got my tips tonight nothing popped up. New follower alerts popped up. But not tips. It showed up in chat and email let me know. Any ideas why the alert for the stream to see isn’t working? Thanks.
Please supply your account id
Hey guys im having problems with my discord link on my stream dont know why stream elements jsut sends stars and not the link
@warped mural If links in chat are appearing as ***** either mod the bot or disable block hyperlinks in your twitch channel settings: https://dashboard.twitch.tv/settings/moderation
Hello! Im having an issue with my Streamelements. It fails to authenticate, due to which some of my docks are missing like my streaminfo, and my activity feed. I've logged out of Streamelements, Nightbot and i've completely reinstalled Streamelements OBS Live but its still showing up. Can anyone help?
I do still have the ability to stream, i just cant change stream info through OBS and it doesnt show im live as my discord status etc
Check your stream key
how do i do that? 😅
OBS -> settings -> Stream -> streamkey field
if its missing and you have a "disconnect" button - Push the button 
the click "connect" again
and connect your twitch account
Hi again, trying to figure out this bad bandwidth qualitity with twitch as we found out here earlier, Talked to my ISP and they want me to Trace route to the twitch server, anyone know where i can find the address to trace?
Here for the closest ones: https://stream.twitch.tv/ingests/
Here for all addresses https://twitchstatus.com/
Thanks Fabi
I got a question, i have add with the FFZ extention on chrome that before the names of people there are different icons where i can ban, mute people. But how do i add that in OBS Live because i tried to make a custom dock and copy the link of that twitch chat but it doesn't work.
Hello
Question why is my Chat in OBS Live not working but the Activity feed does work pls need help
@maiden flame StreamElements menu, on top of OBS > Logout > Login
@gentle musk there is a cogwheel in the chat dock that can control the FFZ settings - click that and if you can enable the quick mod buttons
@gentle musk that's actually some you'd have luck asking on the FFZ discord. https://discord.com/invite/UrAkGhT
hi 😄 I have done some searching and I can't seem to figure out what I am missing. I want to import and overlay I made to channel that I am editor for - I see the button... but it's inactionable? what do I do now?\
Hi. If you are an editor for a channel, use the website and duplicate the overlay - this is how you can transfer overlays between accounts.
I have tried this now and under channels to duplicate to I only see the one I am working in
I have full control over one other account (my streaming one) and editor over the one I want to export to
neither of those show up
:/ loosing all hope. My ISP (vodafone) can't even traceroute to twitch to find what is the problem with my bandwidth quality that is causing frame drops. wierd stuff as i have 891mb download and 925mb upload speed.
Should work. Can you give me the account ID from the account that is the source of the overlay?
I have the same issue fam. I have tried everything. I am certain its the ingest relays on twitchs side
Hi. Do not rely on ISP to find the issue, they generally do not care unless the connection is dead. You can try different methods to check it, Twitch has their own bandwith tester and there are external test tools like the one from R1ch - feel free to test those out and check what servers are useable for you.
Crynoic, I was told by here, that I should speak to my ISP.
@nova scaffold can I DM you with the account ID?
it is safe to post it here.
you can, but if they refuse, you need to dig around on your own. That would be a tool that i can recommend:
https://r1ch.net/projects/twitchtest
Test your upload bandwidth and connection quality to Twitch
5d6642681c39277144088dc3
I've been using that Crynoic, thats how support here found out i should speak to my ISP 🙂
give me a minute
Getting 10k+ Bandwidth but 0 quality
well what does that tool show?
on all servers worldwide?
well, in europe, and i'm just scanning now for those that get best rating most of the time which is london.
Running TCP autmoatic obs and medium
BurnsytheBear has only one editor. when i log into the controlled accounts, i can see that working.
You need to adjust the editor/full control roles both ways to make it work
0 quality is really bad. in that case you can try a VPN (i know that will cut your bandwith in half at least and increase the ping) but that might help
and talk to Vodafone. i have Vodafone myself, but in Germany - they are useless at best and a nightmare when you actually want something 😄
So I want to duplicate to Zillboop. I am editor on Zill's and Zill is editor on mine.
Been talking to Vodafone for basically 4hours today in an online chat
Do I need to make it full control instead?
trying to fix this
Then go to the managed account and then copy to Zillboop pretty much.
Like i said, they are useless at best.
Try a VPN, there are cheap ones with a test period etc. Look for one that has servers in your country
hehe
I bet not many vpn got server in my country 🙂
I live in Iceland, haven't found one yet atleast
thats the screenshot I sent to you - Zill doesn't show up at all.
got express vpn, but tbf, i've tried gaming with it it shit,
I will continue trying to fix it somehow 🙂
What Quality is like minimum recommended to be happy with ?
Make sure you are moderating that account and not log in with that account, then you will be able to duplicate.
If you give me the overlay name, i can transfer a couple of them over
On the r1ch test thingy?
ye
80+ quality would be acceptable
close to 100 is what you need if you want to push 1080p 60fps stable
I get good ratings when scanning short (10sec) but ones i go 30sec or 60sec scans everything goes south lol
Gimme 5-6min to check that tool, do not remember it 🙂
Okay, logged in on Burnsy, still can't see Zill when I try to transfer and that is soooooo weird. I am trying to duplicate 5 overlays all named with prefix (Zills Test)
Ok, give me a few minutes, bit busy here.
Those are mine on short, testing long now. This is what you look for in terms of quality.
no probs 🙂 all chilled
I see that the editor role is just one way.
You need to add the editor role the other way around to make it work
Zillboop needs to have the editor aswell, not just have an editor
love you homie it worked
Tested long, 60sec aswell. This is what you should be getting on average to have the best quality for twitch. Check if the VPN helps here.
how do i uninstall obslive and keep obs intact
zillboop must be editor on burnsy? I did set that up
Other way around.
on burnsy I see this -
Zill needs to have the editor too.. Make sure both accounts have the editor rights for each other.
done
I did transfer the overlays for you, everything is working.
both the duplicate and the "import from other channel" buttons
this is sooooooo weird 🥴 I can see you transferred now
but see the import button is still grayed out??
so how on EARTH did you do it but I can't?
oh my tits
BWAAAAAAAAAAAAH!
okay I'mma slink out of here and go take my ADHD meds because wowza... but @nova scaffold thank you hahahha
I have my PayPal set up on streamelements and have it set up as link on my page. And double checked that an overlay has the tipping alert on. Yet when I got my tips tonight nothing popped up.

How I add the activity feed on obs?
If you use OBS.Live - go to StreamElements in the top menu and enable the activity feed dock from there.
thanksss
When i try add an overlay link half of it doesnt show? and isnt there? so the chatbox on the left shows but the stuff on the right wont?

can anyone help establish why my streamelements bot is no longer posting in my chat?
I sorted my stream commands out and ever since it doesn't post.
Tried disconnecting it and reconnecting it but no change
@worthy comet Please logout of StreamElements at https://streamelements.com/logout and then login again to your account (Twitch/YouTube/Facebook).
@worthy comet Go to the Dashboard > Right side > Part channel > Join channel(https://streamelements.com/dashboard)
@worthy comet are u using custom name or default streamelements?
@worthy comet 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
try this

Why can't I upload images and sounds to follow notifications and stuff
are you getting some kind of error?

Can you post a screenshot of that error?
I cannot figure out how to reinstall stream elements
Hi, some days ago my alerts stopped working properly, first it was only showing the animation without sound, now if I try to re-launch a notification from the "Activity Feed" section it does not even show the animation and no sound as well, however if I open my source URL on a browser I can see the alert animation and the sound is played.
So I opened the "live registry" and I found this:
18:59:51.924: obs-browser: se-widget-alertbox 27: Something broke while showing an alert (source: https://streamelements.com/overlay/scripts/vendor.js:25582)
Any help would be appreciated.

I could help! DM Me
this is windows right?

try switching your game to borderless windowed
Still not working @ocean rivet
I'm afraid there's not much we can do here as this is related to OBS, try asking in their discord: https://discord.gg/obsproject
Thanks!
hey

Hi I have accidentally imported my tipping element from streamlabs 5x and now my activity feed is showing 5x the notification for each tip, is there a way to fix this?
where could I do that?
I already did that for you
oh! thank you!
Im having troubles importing my streamlabs information
Do you have media and image sources in your scene?
yes i do
Check each and every one, if by change a sourced file is missing
Hello, can anyone help me out? I'm pretty sure it may sound stupid, but I'm new to this. I've set up a few sound alarms and then set them as browser sources on obs. Animations appear just fine, but the sounds aren't playing neither on the live nor on my headphones.
I've tested on streamelements creation tool and it seemed to be working fine.
Am I missing something?
@worldly edge 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
Wow that was quick! Ty so much! I'll give it a try first thing in the morning
what do you mean by if change a sourced file is missing?
if by chance* a sourced file is missing
slight typo, sorry
meaning if you've added an image/video to OBS in one of the sources
if its missing the file it self
as in, its not loading it
hmm okay
is there another way of doing this? I still cant seem to figure it out.
Ok, there are a few reasons why the import will fail:
- media/image files are too big (above 30mb)
- unsupported files
- copyrighted assets from SL
could i try sharing my desktop to you maybe to help figure it out?
ill take a quick pic of some of the scenes
