unable to import from streamlabs

nova scaffold
#

OBS is losing connection to the StreamElements server. This has nothing to do with your internet overall, this is a specific connection between OBS and our sever.

#

I would test workarounds like a VPN first and see if a routing change results in more stability.

Hi there, im new to streaming and installed obs live and most is fine , tho im having trouble with media request, i can play sound fine but if i try to "show on stream" it seems to be playing sound twice or more sounds terrible, any help would be greatly appreciated Cheers GnU

#

i have it docked in obs

nova scaffold
crisp verge
#

ya even if i mute other channels in obs it still happens

nova scaffold
#

You need to make sure you have only one of those

crisp verge
#

i use voicemeeter and have all sound channels seperate

#

and made captures for each type in obs and set all sound to disabled

#

but it was doint the same b4 i got voicemeeter

nova scaffold
#

Again, if you have double sound, that means you have more that one browser source with the media request widget.

crisp verge
#

so sound comes through the widget itself or?

#

im new to this sorry

rancid rampart
#

Oh perfect i have the exact same problem too

#

I was told to just get the obs widget but it still hasnt fixed my audio issue either

crisp verge
#

so when i made my scene the brouser sorce i added for media request also send through sound?

#

mmm maby its a voicemeeter issue tho was happening b4 i installed it

rancid rampart
#

do you use voicemeeter banana?

crisp verge
#

potato

#

ya everything else works sweet

#

just this media request

rancid rampart
#

yeah so i definitley think its probably no vm because we use 2 different ones

#

yeah same it sounds like its echoing right?

crisp verge
#

ya

#

playing 2 x maby 3

rancid rampart
#

Wait do you have media request on 2 different overlays

wary dew
#

โœ… shutdown source when not visible

crisp verge
#

if u use just sound is fine then while lplaying if u click show on stream it stops for a seccond then restarts 2-3 times

wary dew
#

hit that button on the overlay in the properties

rancid rampart
#

Ruben you the best

crisp verge
#

wait what?

rancid rampart
wary dew
#

right click on the browser source, click on properties and select that option

#

or else it will play on all overlays

rancid rampart
#

Hi, been having a issue with obs.live since i came back to studio obs, i migrated from streamlabs and imported my alerts from there, but the followers do not appear in the activity feed nor in the SE dashboard data, the follower alert does not come up while every other alert works as intended

@wary dew Cheers mang that seemed to work

Hi, I am new at the StreamElements and streaming in general. I have installed OBS.Live already and I don't know, how to import my overlay into it. Can anyone help me, please? Sorry for mistakes, I am Czech.

dapper iglooBOT
#

@real wadi 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

still having black screen in browser source

gentle olive
#

hey, im having some trouble setting up the overlays through streamelements. I am using this simple template overlay, that i edited a bit for my own needs...

#

but it ends up looking like this once i put it into the browser scource

dapper iglooBOT
#

@gentle olive 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

#

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.

gentle olive
#

ok... the main reason i use SLOBS is for the in-game chat overlays, i only have one monitor, so i need that so that i can interact with chat, is there a way to set that up with OBS?

I have a problem with MEdia share - at points it gets pixelated / screen tearing, looks fine on OBS but on live stream i can see it and one of my mods confirmed it, is there any fix to it

Hey, what's up? can anybody help me? unfortunately I put it so that when I went live I would have a tweet that the live was starting, now I can't get it out and there is a lot of spam on my twitter. Does anyone know how to solve? I don't remember where that option was, but I know it's in the OBS

Hi

I have the shure sm7b and the Fucusrite Scarlett 2i2 3rd generation.

I've set everything in OBS but somehow it doesn't get recorded. But the level rises. however, the microphone works with other programs. If I specify my webcam with a microphone at Obs, it works too. I've really tried everything. Would be nice if someone had an idea.

kindred fox
#

@tiny shadow you right-click your audio source and select advanced audio properties. Inside there you can specify tracks for each audio source

tiny shadow
#

i get that

#

but when I set them seperately so headset audio on 1 and mic set on 2 it stops picking it u[

#

up*

#

it still picks up game audio

kindred fox
#

You also have to go into your encoder settings for recording and specify which audio track you want to record.

tiny shadow
#

-_-

#

So, if I have my mic on channel 2

#

and game audio on 1

#

and my encoder has channel 1 and 2 checked

#

it should work

When someone redeems channel points in chat I have an image show up on screen to help me notice it. Right now it just appears and 4 seconds later it disappears.

i setup all the software on a new computer and everytime i try and go live i get the below error

#

oops! something went wrong.... we could not create a live video on thepage

shy mountain
#

Check your stream key, restart PC and if that doesn't work, then you are affected by a bug we are working on fixing.

hoary reef
#

i have checked the key, restarted computer, logged out, cleared browser cache, everything

#

what else can i try??

#

how else can i go live currently??

shy mountain
#

Uninstall OBS.Live

#

just OBS.Live

hoary reef
#

ok

#

let me try and restart computer and reinstall brb

#

@shy mountain same issue

#

please help what else can i do here ive tried everything

shy mountain
#

I did say uninstall OBS.Live

#

not reinstall

#

But I want to try something else

hoary reef
#

ok delete it then what

shy mountain
#

when going live try and choose this option: "Go Live with Facebook Streamer Dashboard Settings"

#

If you uninstall OBS.Live, you just start OBS Studio and start streaming

hoary reef
#

that doesnt give me an error

#

it says waiting for your stream to go live

shy mountain
#

Yes and as far as I'm aware, you go to your facebook dashboard and start the stream from there

hoary reef
#

under what options in FB

shy mountain
#

That I don't know as I personally don't have a FB streaming page

kindred fox
#

I believe you have to set up a live stream and then go live using the dashboard settings

hoary reef
#

is there any videos tyou guys have of this process?

shy mountain
#

Unfortunately no.

hoary reef
#

so what do i do

#

any other suggestions

shy mountain
#

just uninstall obs.live

hoary reef
#

ok

#

then what

hoary reef
#

same issue

#

any oter ideas

shy mountain
#

I would recommend to setup your stream via the Facebook Dashboard and go live with "Go Live with Facebook Streamer Dashboard Settings".
No we don't have a video for this unfortuantely, but this should help the first setup:https://www.facebook.com/business/help/461095387655664

#

If this doesn't help

#

simply uninstall OBS.Live

#

and follow the facebook article on how to go live

#

how to make stream fps 60 instead of 30

you can choose the fps settings in OBS IIRC

So, I HAD this set up, and now it's suddenly not working... And when I try to re-do it, the "Set custom bot name" doesn't switch to the account I signed into to authorize access (obvs not my own account)... Any idea how to fix?

dapper iglooBOT
#

@storm grail 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
storm grail
#

In Step 3, "Set custom bot name" was already selected and was NOT my Custom Bot Name.
So then I followed Steps 4-5 and signed in as the alt account I used as my Custom Bot Name and clicked [Authorize], but again, the "Set custom bot name" item in the "Current bot name" selector doesn't switch to the alt account, and the 'Send Test Message' button is greyed out and can't be clicked on

#

Anything else I can do?

#

Wanna watch it not work? LUL

rugged quail
#

Just so we're sure, you're running obs.live on windows right

storm grail
#

Correct on both counts

#

BTW, Sorry for the ping, KeiZar, and thanks for the prompt responses KeiZar and MrMurdok bnovaLove

rugged quail
#

try doing this

#
  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.
storm grail
#

OK! So far so good... Custom bot name shows up in the "Set custom bot name" field!! ๐Ÿ˜ฎ Done all steps and reopening OBS...

#

Yay!! It's still working after re-opening OBS!!
TYTYTY!! I really appreciate your help!

hexed anchor
#

Is it possible to add a command through streamelements bot that would allow a mod to either host a channel or end the stream. As an emergency if you for some reason forget to close obs and the stream continues for hours and hours without your knowledge

shy mountain
#

I believe a twitch editor (you set a mod as an editor via the permissions page on the twitch dashboard) can use /host command

hexed anchor
#

Ok, this would only work as long as that other channel is online. Would it still be possible to add a command and make the bot end the stream?

shy mountain
#

there is no way the bot or us to end the stream

hexed anchor
#

If the bot is set as an editor. Is it possible to add a custom command that would allow a mod to trigger the host command? I feel like giving people access to editor is maybe to much access ๐Ÿ˜„

shy mountain
#

I'm not sure if the /host command will work from the bot, as it might not be white listed

hexed anchor
#

It's not a huge problem, i have some friends that every now and then forget to close obs, and i forgot it myself a couple of times after using the /host command. Maybe a feature you would consider adding in the future? Would be a nice safety feature just in case

shy mountain
#

obs.live is a plugin for OBS Studio

#

this type of feature for remote turning off would be something for the OBS guys, not us :/

hexed anchor
#

So there's no hope then, unless some community member out there creates a plugin we could use

with the donation goal overlay widget, how do you reset the amount to 0 to start from scratch??

dapper iglooBOT

To reset goals:

  • from the Overlay Editor > Session data on top right (monitor symbol) > Goals tab > reset progress of desired goal
  • from the Dashboard > Activity feed on the left > Widget data on the right > Goals tab -> reset progress of desired goal

Note: Goal widgets (progress) only counts up and doesn't go down automatically, if you lose followers/subs.

Had that happen to myself as well (forgetting to stop stream after raiding and realizing only after 4 hours).
Basically, "streaming" is controlled by the application (OBS), so if you want to end stream you need to control the application.
This is not something that a Twitch bot or moderator can do, this is something only you (or someone that can control you computer) can do.
For security reasons, I hope no "remote control for 3rd party people" feature is added to OBS, as this will potentially surrender control over your pc to someone else.

Hello, I recently updated OBSLIVE to 21.3.8.729 and now whenever I start stream my OBS would freeze for a few seconds every few seconds. All my settings are the same as before.

best audio settings?

dapper iglooBOT
#

@tawdry shell There are no "best settings".
Please understand that every setup will be very different.

Any guides or videos that claim otherwise are misinforming. Your best option is to start with a base and adjust as necessary.

You can run the OBS auto-configuration tool. To use the auto-config, click on the Tools menu in OBS, select Auto-Configuration Wizard, and then just follow the on-screen directions.
You can use this tool to get baseline settings for your hardware and adjust as necessary from there.

Test, test, and test again. We are happy to offer suggestions for any issues you may be having afterward, but not a list of settings.

#

Hello, so I have two problems, 1 is that if I put my buy rate above 3000kb/s it will not reach it and is stuck below 3k itโ€™s not a problem with the WiFi since I have more than enough, another problem is that when streaming obs says that frames and quality are fine but when I view my test stream the quality and frames are terrible, Iโ€™ve gotten my WiFi company out to take a look and they said itโ€™s not the WiFi and that itโ€™s either obs or twitch.

dapper iglooBOT
#

@north glen 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.

Hi! I changed the sound on my alerts yesterday in streamelements, uploaded new sounds, but on my live stream i cant hear the sounds, i hear them on my computer and in streamelements when alerts go off but not captured, anyone know what could have happened ?

Do you hear them in OBS when you emulate alerts from the overlay?

how i traspass tipeestream overlay to streamelements

It should install a chrome extension and you should be able to import

and with the extention how i export overlay

I believe you will need to have a tab open and logged into tipeeestream and one tab logged into your StreamElements dashboard

dapper iglooBOT

@queen kiln Valve has implemented a trusted mode which does not allow OBS to hook CS:GO using Game Capture. Read more in their announcement post here https://blog.counter-strike.net/index.php/2020/07/30736/.

Additionally, they have no plans on allowing OBS in trusted mode. https://support.steampowered.com/kb_article.php?ref=8835-KLXV-0292#whitelist You will need to run the game in either windowed or borderless fullscreen and use Window Capture instead.
Alternately, you can launch the game with -allow_third_party_software.

and I dont think so should I run it as an admin

Always run obs as admin

I encountered a weird issue last night that I'm struggling to resolve.
I have my OBSlive capturing my entire PC sound to output as well as my mic
I use Triggerfyre for fun sound stuff, but I can't work out a mixture of settings that allow me to hear the sound and viewers as well, without the viewers hearing the echo caused by me hearing it

Hello, an update on my issue, I am receiving alerts for anything paid, ie bits donations and subs all display an alert but followers hosts etc do not get picked up in my obs activity feed and are not displayed by the alert box, anyone know how to fix this its becoming very frustrating, everything was fine yesterday.

#

If I hit the Preview in OBS Live the alerts and the chat show. In OBS itself it doesn't and not during a test stream

#

That's my Overlay setting

Hey,

I am having trouble getting my alert notifications to show during my live streams (Twitch or YouTube).

I currently use OBS Studio (not StreamLabs OBS).

When I test them on the streamelements website (live streaming or just off stream testing, everything works fine.

But when someone follows or subscribe during the stream nothing shows.

I have my alert boxes set to 1920/1080 on the website and in the OBS Studio Scenes.

I am also aware of the privacy settings on YouTube that may prevent getting notifications on YouTube, but again nothing is showing for Twitch either.

Is there anything else that I am missing???

Thanks!!!

Be Safe!!!

when it comes for me to login to twitch it just stays white nothing appears for me to enter info

not sure what you mean by that

So for example, if you have an overlay, then a separate alert box in SE, you can combine those into one to use less resources

#

Is it possible for OBS to capture an undocked OBS.live window that doesn't involve capturing and croping monitor capture? If so, how?

uncut oyster

@quick atlas ok for example this is what i have for Desktop sharing (as Redm doesnt work with game capture)

honest echo
uncut oyster
#

so yer saying i can combine some of these sources somehow?

quick atlas
uncut oyster
#

is that done on the stream elements site

quick atlas

Yes, same place where you would have initially made the overlays

ok ill see if i can figure that out, thank you so much

No problem!

I am having an issue connecting my custom chatbot name account in obs live. It goes through the whole login process authorization then the window closes and does not connect the account.

dapper iglooBOT
#

@digital dune 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

#

After step 5 is complete the window disappears, the bot account does not connect, and the test message button is not available.

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.

With normal OBS you need to go to Settings - Audio and select the correct devices for desktop (your output) and microphone (your input). If you have more devices, you need to add them aswell (like capture cards)

OBS needs 2 inputs - desktop audio and mic - both have to use the correct audio device.

dapper iglooBOT

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.

To add your overlays to OBS, add a new browser source in your scene. Paste your overlay URL in the browser source properties, set the dimensions to 1920x1080 (unless you changed them on the website) and check Shutdown source when not visible. https://youtu.be/KDvLynUqXI4

I have started using Epidemic Sounds and I can create my own playlists there and I can share those publicly with a link: e.g. https://www.epidemicsound.com/playlist/XYZ and then everyone can access it.

This will force reload the overlay every time you switch the scene

No because it has a visible reload of other graphics. Although I thought about making a singular overlay just for alerts so i can turn on this setting.

You can use the TouchOSC phone app to map VM buttons via OSC commands and give yourself a virtual interface on your phone. Itโ€™s not the best solution, but I have done it and it does work. It is however a pain to get running

Hey guys!

If i game on a 1440P monitor, but my second monitor where my OBS is, is 1080P. Do i set the base canvas to 1440P or 1080?

You can set the canvas to 1080p just because it is easier to work with

  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.

Hey guys!
So i have a 2 pc setup for streaming. I am wondering if anyone can help me with how this works? Right now i am getting encoding overloaded on the streaming PC even just using "Fast" when i was expecting that because of 2 PCs i could do "Medium" at least?

#

It just seems to be acting as if the streaming PC is also still processing the game footage as if it would on a regular single setup?

nova scaffold
#

based on 1080p 60fps medium

forest parcel
#

@nova scaffoldStreaming pc has a 8700k

nova scaffold
#

6 cores from a couple of years back. It should do "faster" without issues.

#

For medium you would need something like 5950x or a 16 core threadripper (or similar Intel) which is not viable anymore

forest parcel
#

Yeah, i tried doing Faster but it was 100% encoding overload

nova scaffold
#

for minimal gains you spend hundreds

forest parcel
#

Very Fast is like 50%

nova scaffold
#

CPU encoding is intense

#

I recommend GPU encoding if your streaming PC has a 2000 or 3000 series Nvidia

forest parcel
#

The streaming one is only a 1080TI sadly

#

My gaming one is 2080TI and an i9 9900k. But sadly, i still get pixelisation and stuff somehow when streaming with just that as a single

#

So figured to swap to the 2pc side

nova scaffold
#

2PC will give you an improvement. But if you want maximum quality, the next step up would be a 2000/3000 series Nvidia GPU with the NVenc encoder or 12+ cores CPU, starting with the 3000 Ryzen series (3900X)

#

i use the 3900X and sometimes i wish i had more horsepower, but looking at the price - nope ๐Ÿ™‚

#

But i had it easier since i use AMD in both PCs, so this moved from main rig to streaming rig

forest parcel
#

Yeah haha ๐Ÿ˜‚
I am still just sorting out re organising them now

#

Having to swap my mic out and put it into the stream pc etc now is annoying

nova scaffold
#

There are ways to deal with a dual PC setup

#

but in general it is double the work

forest parcel
#

Yeah. It's annoying having to use discord on stream pc and mic etc on it

nova scaffold
#

I suggest looking into a Yamaha AG-03

#

so you will have the master out from there to the streaming PC and the USB into the streaming PC

#

this is how i have it set up, it is cheap enough to recommend

#

and ideally designed for dual PC use. the GoXLR is similar, but like 3x more expensive

forest parcel
#

I look at an image of that and i'm just like "wtf is this" XD

#

Looks confusing as hell to me

#

Thanks for the recommendation though! I might look into getting this sorted aswell

nova scaffold
#

Yep. Just remember that as an option

#

It allows you to separate the clean mic signal into USB while getting a combined signal from both PCs back into the streaming PC

#

so i did end up with just a single input in OBS for all audio

forest parcel
#

For profile. Would you recommend main/high? Idk if that would make a difference and allow for me to use "Faster" instead of "Very Fast"?

nova scaffold
#

Not relevant for a streaming PC that does nothing outside of streaming

forest parcel
#

Alright no worries then. Thanks

#

Currently just using voicemeter banana though. Ended up somehow being annoying to figure out

#

Was what seemed to pop up everywhere though for guides so i never thought of looking at mixers or such

#

Gotta be much better than banana though

nope

#

everything is checked except merch

i use streamlabs notifications and stuff and it showed it there but my activity feed just shows follows

#

inside the streamlabs itself

quick atlas

Streamlabs or Streamelements?

surreal gyro

i use obs.live addons for obs

#

but for my alerts I use streamlabs browser source

#

follows come through but no donation

viscid root
#

I tried relogging and the stream is still not going live?

quick atlas
#

So if you are getting events through Streamlabs, you will not be able to see that on the streamelements feed.

#

Specifically those donations would need to use our tipping page to be seen

surreal gyro
#

ah so I would have to use donation page of streamelements?

quick atlas

okay ima try that ty

also

question

since I have the streamlabs donation notification set up will it also show once I receive the donation from streamelements?

I logged out of every streaming application I have then back inm through OBS Live @quick atlas

The systems don't have any link with each other, so whichever system you use will be the only system that sees it.

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

When setting up alerts for obs.live it appears in stream elements overlay creator that the alerts are geared more towards youtuber streamers, am I missing something that would show me Twitch labels for alerts like for donations, follows for example

rugged quail

Iโ€™ve tried multiple things that SE Staff has told me to do and it still doesnโ€™t work

They said they would tell their devs just havenโ€™t heard back in awhile

Right, since the overlays can be used for multiple platforms, you'll want to make sure it matches the events that come through the platform

Is there a way to import the alerts that Twitch uses

quick atlas

What do you mean by that? So the dashboard you make with your Twitch account should already have the alert sets for twitch, if that's what you mean

Please man

I love using streamelements but the only issue is that

My preview screen is non existent. Itโ€™s just black display that is stretched out to where I canโ€™t even see where my display is suppose to go

Can you share more information about the preview screen? A screenshot would help to understand the issue

In general the preview window is scaled to the canvas or the monitor size

What are your canvas settings in OBS?

You can also try to disable and re-enable the preview window in OBS

You have monitor capture enabled on the same monitor where OBS is on

Hi, is it possible to resume the stream after OBS crashes

#

It just creates a whole new stream when I press "start streaming"

nova scaffold
#

Not possible. Twitch can hold the connection for a bit, but it will still create a new stream. Other platforms do not even hold the connection.

hallow timber
#

Youtube holds the stream open. Normal OBS reconnects

#

That is OBS without the SE plugin

#

Stream hiccups are a normal thing, even with people live streaming from a phone connection through YouTube. Its resilient like that, so I dont understand where you got that information from?
