no i want to see my chat on my screen without having to check twitch or w/e
ty
you can add the chat dock from the streamelements menu > obs.live docks
thats already checked but i cant see my chat on screen
can you share a screenshot of your whole obs window?
i will when im able, sorry im a bit busy as of rn
Wow that did the trick ... ty so much and apologies for the disruption
Update: OBS hot fix 27.1.3 fixed everything and all the S/E stuff has worked out too.😋 👍 Now I'm happy. Now I just have to vacuum all the hair I pulled out.
also i think u are misinterpriting what im wanting
im wanting to see it when my game is fullscreened
like i can see chat
without having to maximise obs, or twitch, or whatever
there's a program for that on github
ill get you a link
Gimme that too, please?
If you have one monitor and/or would like the chat overlay on the screen, please look at the link below.
Please note this is not a plugin for OBS and not maintained by SE.

@pale ivy @kindred fossil ^^ 😄
is this right place to ask help with ground control app. i want to use it, not the integrated in .live plugin?
yeah, you can ask here as well
okey, so i have ground control installed to win 10 machine. its works perfectly, but then i have installed to my main pc wich is windows 11. the app works but only the media request tab is just blue, and i can do nothing with it, unless restarted the app. is it just of because windows 11 or something else? and the win 10 machine is my old laptop wich i dont use unless testing purpose, so it would be nice to get work on win 11 pc
and if you need information, win 11 is the real released version, not insider version
hi.. while trying to conenct my PS5 remote play to my OBS live it just shows a black screen
it could be that you're missing some libraries, such as https://aka.ms/vs/16/release/vc_redist.x64.exe
i have it installed but version is older. i try install it and try if it works
in any case, we don't have support for windows 11 yet
okey the updated vc redist package fixes the problem, pretty wierd that with win 11 you get older version 😮
but yeah, thats for help 😛
Any idea why my text won't show up for alerts when I use an overlay from a pack I bought from OWN3D? The animation happens and it works properly but when I switch to "text over image" in the layout section of the alert it doesn't show up. The other 2 layout options show the text totally fine.
I'm getting an "Invalid authorization token" error when attempting to edit my overlays. Logging out and back into my twitch on both the app and the web browser don't fix the issue. What do I do?
So, my custom bot name vanished when I changed the password for the account, I have logged back into the account via the OBS stream elements activity feed dock 7 times in a row, with the correct credentials, and nothing happens. It just wont let me add my custom bot name back, is there an issue?
@worthy eagle ⤵️
- Right-click on your OBS desktop shortcut and open the Properties
- 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) - Open OBS (or restart if it was open)
- Open your web browser and type in:
localhost:40404 - Click on StreamElements - Activity feed
- Navigate to the Console tab
- Type the following into the console and hit enter:
store.customBot.removeCustomBotIntegration() - Try setting the custom bot name
- Remove the additional flag in step 2 from your shortcut properties.
Can you try clearing the cache and cookies of the browser, then try again?
Hey guys, I don't know if this is the perfect channel to write but I have a problem on donation page... I only see the paypal button... How can I add donations by card?
so I keep getting the error below but i have not been getting anything telling me what it is in my logs
The settings may be to high for the system, but I'd advise checking the in the OBS discord for the best help
Obs.live is a plugin for OBS Studio for the best OBS support, please join their Official Discord @ https://discord.gg/obsproject
Magic stuff, thanks
I've just tried those steps, but for some reason it didn't work for me, I tried connecting another bot account, but it didn't worked either
Make sure you’re following the steps exactly
I did exactly as stated, but still
I don't know if running OBS as admin is messing with that in some way maybe
Obs should always be run as admin
You’re performing the steps with obs closed to start?
Yes,I am
My issue was fixed, thanks to the support team on twitter 😄
is it safe to say not to update to obs 27.1 yet until SE has a compatible update?
Yes, it is. 👍
Hey with the latest update you still cant change the size on the obs live so it can fit for smaller monitors i wonder if there will be another fix to this or is there already a fix that i have missed?
Hey, following up on the ticket you sent, we were referring to the OBS discord, not ours
can someone help me fix my obs
what seems to be the problem?
im having frames missed due to rendering issues and i dont know what to do regarding a fix
@still shale ⤵️
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.
Can someone please help me, im going nuts
Im trying to use stream elemts for my Youtube streaming and such. Yet the tip link, and my streamelements profile page is showimg my very first youtube name form 2014, ive been using a new one for years now and it hasnt changed on streamelements
Im not seeing anyway to edit the tipping link or anything like that
I need both the link at the bottom, and the profile page at the top to also say '0hkie' not the name I had nearly 7 years ago
the tipping link is also using the really old name
@soft knot - is there anyway of changing this stuff?
Yes, this is a task for our developers, and first we need to make sure that this name is free in our system. Please send us a ticket here: https://streamelements.com/contact and tell us your account ID and the name you want to change the URL to.
@willow quest ⤵️
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.
Okay done, thank you!

Help? Please.
How to I restore my OBS.Live???
@pallid moss ⤵️
OBS.Live is a Plugin for OBS created by StreamElements. You can download OBS.Live here: https://streamelements.com/obslive
Please make sure you have the latest version of OBS installed, Current Version: 26.1.1. You can install OBS here: https://obsproject.com/
Its not popping up the media and chat for me! D;:
@pallid moss ⤵️
StreamElements menu, on top of OBS > Logout > Login
hello, i have a youtube account connect to SE and the dashboard is not working. therefor alerts r not working
what do i need to do?
In OBS? I don't have a StreamElements tab....
Why is it do I get a 404 sever message when I hit the tip overlay ??
Everything is restore but now my Stream Deck is not responsive to OBS.Live, any help?
Anyone have any performance issues now after the newest OBS update? I could always stream with the preview window on and now I can't without a bunch of dropped frames.
I've run into a problem where any TTS is at 100% volume despite what it's actually set to. I even turned it down to 0% and can hear it the same as if I never changed it. This started halfway through my stream yesterday (the first 3 hours levels were fine) and persists today. I've checked and there are no updates to push. Any advice is appreciated.
is this other new update safe and working
no
tried this and it's still not working
did they change the minimum size for obs cant scale the app smaller than a certain area
I'm not getting any audio from any of my alerts? anyone else? OBS.LIVE is being used.
@dull cedar ⤵️
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
Yeah, I'm dumb. I fixed it. Thanks!

hi i keep getting this failed to authenticate with twitch (http 400) when i start my obs.live what can i do to fix this please help & thank u
after installing stream elements in OBS nothing works anymore. I'm trying to stream to restream. It works perfectly when SE is unistalled. When I try to stream with SE installed I get a dialog box asking me to set up my youtube stream. The first option, "Go Live with Youtube Live Dashboard setting" crashes OBS 100% of the time. The second option, "Create a new Youtube Live Video with these settings:" returns an error message reading "Oops! Something went wrong... we could not create a Live Stream on Youtube."
Hey, OBS Live isnt launching with OBS studio for me after updating. Any fix?
Does anyone know why my minecraft isnt showing up on my game capture
I figured it out I disconnected my twitch to obs & obs.live then reconnected & it fixed the authentication failure (http 400)
hey I'm having some problem with the custom bot name, I was using normally but it stopped working since my last broadcast, any way to fix this?
@fathom pier ⤵️
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/re4theQ.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
hi. can someone please help with my problem. My OBS wont start streaming to either Twich or YouTube. every time I press the Start button it opens a new window called "Start streaming to YouTube" with literally nothing but a StreamElements blue background, nothing else.
Can someone help me I'm trying to resize the Game Capture and i cant seem to get it to 1920x1080 on capture any fullscreen application
Hello, It appears the latest OBS update is causing audio desync issues. Its impacting me and some others. Do we have any other reports of this or a fix?
Is the mac version updated to OBS 27.0? I couldn't find any information about that.
Hello, How do I find my stream key?
Hi everyone, I have a Mac m1 and I am trying to use the streamdeck app to control it. I was able to until I restored my Mac. I have just done a fresh install of obs live and streamdeck app. When I go to add actions from obs, the streamdeck app asks me to launch OBS even tho it’s already open. Any thoughts?
Hello! I did a bitrate test this morning using the "Auto-Configuration Wizard" tool in discord and it recommended that I use 10000 bitrate to stream to YouTube. Fast forward hours later and now it will only recommend a bitrate of 160ish. Just curious as to what I am doing wrong as I obviously can't stream at that lol
can not ad more than one user in OBS live?
You can only have one user logged into OBS.Live at a time, yes
so I need to log out and then log in to my other user if I need to use it
Hello. I'm streaming and after the last obs update my twitch activity feed doesn't have the option to show donations and my viewer count is gone as well. I've used this same setup for years could anyone PLEASE help me? I can't fix it
Could I install it while I'm live? @rugged quail
unfortunately, you'll need to shut obs down to install it, so no
Ok. No problem.
so err did my streamelements just delete him self alongside with ALL OF MY OVERLAYS AND DOCKS??
?
??????
Is it possible to download this type of animated alert for elixir donation or you have to make a custom one?
I need help.. It seems OBS is reverting to facebook streaming when I am trying to use restream.io I want to get rid of facebook.. but i think streamelements is forcing it. How to kill facebook on streamelements OBS? I was working off and on now not at all. On start stream the first thing you get is a dialog wanting to sent thte facebook stream discription.. then stream key error.
have you logged out of obs.live first?
and then kill the facebook link from streamelements website?
Says parted on the streamelements site.. Then still attached to facebook streaming in the OBS streaming. and gives facebook dialog when starting stream.. OBS always reverts to facebook streaming.
even after loggin out?
yeah i close obs. the go to streamelements website and part
try this https://streamelements.com/logout
It would work when i chose the 2nd option in the facebook dialog..Create a new Facebook Live Video post with these settings: Now I'm just getting hte same error.
I think im abour to uninstall obs and stream elements and start fresh..??
when i parted in the SE website i think i just parted the bot from chat... am i doing this right?
you tube advice lead me to dashboard and part
that will only part the bot..
how to i get rid of face book
Stop if from trying to put facebook as default?
I should be able to use restream.io and streamelements.. yes? sorry for long questions.
I deleted all reference to facebook in restream.io destinations.
I blame the fact that when I first set up streamelements i clicked the facebook button.. i thought it made sense then I quit facebook from restream.io
seem like ill try to start fresh.
I added a stream perk redeem but I don't want the whole "X has redeemed X" to appear in chat, and I turned it off in the settings but it still happens. Did I do it wrong?
that might help... let us know if theres still an issue after that
I have a huge problem, since the last update (yesterday) my obs uses almost 20GB of my ram after streaming for like an hour
It randomly does that, normally it uses between 800mb to 1,2gb
This cant be normal, is there a known bug?
I’ve read that more people in here got the same problem and I definitely need to fix this asap 😯
Thanks
Hey all, since the leak, I changed my password, and now I'm trying to reconnect my bot within the app for a custom name. In Activity Feed, I go to custom bot name, am able to "connect" via the Twitch API and it shows as connected on my bot account, however, nothing changes in the OBS.Live app. The bot name isn't added, and pressing save does nothing either except close that window.
If resetting the bot back to StreamElements, then setting it again to your custom bot, doesn't work - try this:
@zinc hamlet ⤵️
- Right-click on your OBS desktop shortcut and open the Properties
- 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) - Open OBS (or restart if it was open)
- Open your web browser and type in:
localhost:40404 - Click on StreamElements - Activity feed
- Navigate to the Console tab
- Type the following into the console and hit enter:
store.customBot.removeCustomBotIntegration() - Try setting the custom bot name
- Remove the additional flag in step 2 from your shortcut properties.
@soft knot Thank you so much, this worked a treat! Great support man
@grand cloud ⤵️
Welcome to the helpdesk! Please let us know how we can assist you today and a support volunteer or staff member will assist you as soon as they are available. Thank you for your patience.
i cant get any clear pngs
My solution was.. that even though I wasn't using facebook .. StreamelementsOBS.live dosn't work with out a valid facebook address and and key. Learning is hard.
I have a question... I registered a custom bot name on twitch (normal user account, login works fine) and would like to use it for obs.live.. so I go to my "activity feed" panel in OBS.Live, select stream setting, chose "Custom Bot Name" click on "Select custom bot name", click on connect custom bot account, enter my credentials, solve the capture, enter the 2FA code and click on authorize.
And then I am back in OBS.Live and still dont have a custom bot name to choose.
Did I miss smth?
im stuck in an endless loop, it tell me there is an update, i install it, and once program starts again i get this message still, i have restarted pc twice now and its still here. what can i do?
How do I add tags to stream information?
I was wrong again.. I dont think stream elements works with restream.io.. i will keep trying to resurect it.
i cant get my OBS to go live... i click Start Stream and then the button changes to the Red Stop Stream button... but im not live. it didnt pop up the normal window it does when i click start stream to let me decide if i want to do it through Facebook or through obs with facebook settings.. i uninstalled and reinstalled both OBS and the Streamelements overlay. it still isnt working. i restarted my PC as well. Please help.
I'm having the same exact problem right now: Connect Custom Bot Account --> Login with credentials --> 2FA --> back to the start, with the option of sending a test message not available.
yes, maybe smth. bugged?
See the latest pinned message in #helpdesk-facebook please.
@violet mantle @knotty cloud Do the first, then if this doesn't work the second:
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/re4theQ.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
- Right-click on your OBS desktop shortcut and open the Properties
- 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) - Open OBS (or restart if it was open)
- Open your web browser and type in:
localhost:40404 - Click on StreamElements - Activity feed
- Navigate to the Console tab
- Type the following into the console and hit enter:
store.customBot.removeCustomBotIntegration() - Try setting the custom bot name
- Remove the additional flag in step 2 from your shortcut properties.
We dont have 1.6) Send Test Message since on 1.5) the window just closes... will try the second and see whats the output
Yeah, definitely do the second then.
yes the 2nd approach worked. What did the JS function do?
I'm not intimately familiar with our backend, but I think the name is pretty self-explanatory. 🙂
In my experience, it happens to users who had a custom bot name set up, then uninstalled OBS or did something else that left it "stuck" without cancelling it first.
Cannot confirm or deny that 🙂 I fiddled around with that option a bit, but never used it until today 🙂 So might be possible
Anyways, thanks a lot for your support
I can confirm the the problem got solved using the same method.
I think the problem might have derived from me changing passwords to my Twitch account (bot included) and resetting the stream key following the latest news about the leak. Something might have gone wrong in between.
Yes I just did the same, but registered a new bot account.
Yeah, so you're #2 and #3 today with the same experience.
Thanks for the help, though! Much appreciated!
Hello - Is there a way to have StreamElements bot name changed permanently without having the OBS.Live add on in my OBS.studio?
No.
How can I update obs? I only see how to update streamelements plugin...
Hey everyone does anyone know how to edit the hype cup alerts so I can choose different sprites for different currencies? Usd / BTC / xrp / GBP so on
hey everyone hope you are all well 🙂 i was just wondering if i am able to get some assistance with using obslive and streaming whilst in vr playing vrchat and djing at the same time and if there is any programs or any way i am able to do this with out having any lag/ glitching and also trying to get my settings so that my cpu and gpu dont make me drop framerates etc? i am trying to word this as best as possible and i hope it is understandable 🙂
?
I was able to restablish my custom bot name per suggestion #2, but it still won't respond to commands. It is a modded account.
TeamUTAC
It will respond to my owner account
I logged out and logged in as the owner account. Problem workaround solved.
hey im running into some problems!
i just added obs live to obs, it seems to have downloaded fine.. but i cant seem to find media request?
nvm, found it!
Does it respond to commands from everyone now?
Hello whenever I start my stream I get this message "@xZeroBrandx it seems like your Sound Alerts browser source is offline 😦 Make sure you've implemented the source correctly in OBS or refresh the source" I have gone into advanced and changed the Browser source hardware acceleration on and off and either way I still get this message, but I have tested it and the sound alerts do work, so why do I get this message everytime I go live?
Obs.live is a plugin for OBS Studio for the best OBS support, please join their Official Discord @ https://discord.gg/obsproject
Do I join that discord to ask this question^?
Yes.
Thank you!
can one only have one channel under channel in feed?
to my knowledge yes
so they guys over in OBS discord told me to come here to ask about streamelements alerts 😆
sound alerts*
sound alerts the external program/alert provider or the streamelements alerts?
It's the overlay that I made from the stream elements website, then added a browser source to OBS if that helps differentiate
"@xZeroBrandx it seems like your Sound Alerts browser source is offline"
nothing from SE will give this message
can you screenshot it
this?
I get this message in my twitch chat every time I go live, but as far as I know the sound alerts are working
I have refreshed it and done the whole browser acceleration on and off thing
thats not se, thats another provider
these guys https://soundalerts.com/
You know what, you're totally right I thought this message was referring to my Sound alerts from My streamelements overlay, I'm retarded
thank you i totally understand now lol
haha no worries
is obs live support windows 11?
is it possible that i can not connect my custom not via obs live anymore?

Yeah, do the above then. 🙂
thanks for the advice, it worked out 🙂
Hello, I am currently trying to stream on twitch with stream elements obs, and I have sized my game window to fit the screen, but when i do go live, it has a giant black box around it. I have scaled it to fit and everything, I am not sure what is wrong with the settings, I have even had a friend help me.
hi, why when I use transition (track matt) my cpu usage is jumping to 40% in obs, the file is WEBM and also just some kb only
Yes, it does, except from the Twitch account used for the bot itself (TeamUTAC).
Does anyone know why minecraft is not showing on my obs game capture
My camera will not always display in OBS even when I have the deactivate when not showing setting
streamelements sub count not working any ideas?
@burnt sonnet ⤵️
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.
Hello! I am having trouble seeing my alerts from the SE links on OBS. I copy the link into a browser source but when I emulate it, it doesn’t appear. Could this be because I am using the default alert and not a custom one?
Make sure your overlay is 1920x1080
How do you change your SE Pay linked bank account?
so no one can help me here ?
Hello, I am reaching out again to see if anyone knew if the audio desync issue has been resolved in the latest updates?

Hello all my alerts are not working. They are not displayed and the follows are not counted.
The alerts are integrated directly into the overlay via the overlay editor. When I emulate them for testing, the alerts work but not when I'm live.
These are self-created alerts. I'm using OBS Version 27.1.3 and the latest obs.live with a custom Bot name.
Can you please help and sorry for my bad english.

hi, all of a sudden today my total subscriber count in widget data is 0. i have tried logging out and back in, resetting session, etc. and nothing seems to be fixing this. anything i can try?
Have you tried reloggin to your account on SE?
on the website?
yes
yes i have tried logging out and back in unless there is a different way you mean
like reauthorizing SE or something
try this https://streamelements.com/logout
total followers cheers and tips are working
youve changed your password?
i have changed my twitch password yes. and tried logging out and back in with that link
everything else works, all overlays notifs and alerts
the login through obs is fine as well
try reset the session data
i have tried that a few times now
it shows my correct followers count, cheers count, and then 0 for subscribers in totals
ok i can try that thank you!
ok it randomly started working again
i hadn't even logged out yet cause i was finishing tweaking a different overlay
it hasn't been working for almost 12 hours so idk why it started all of a sudden
appreciate you both <3

Hello, I can't set a custom botname only SE or my Streamernick. Are there any problems known because of the twitch leaks?
There is an error in the 1. step.
After the exe
Target: "C:\Program Files\obs-studio\bin\64bit\obs64.exe" --remote-debugging-port=40404
Assuming there's a space between them yes.
Bettween ...exe" and --remote is a space.
Then that is correct

@kind tide Hey check #270206314561404928, make sure you grab your new stream key.
can someoen help me ? i have a new proplem
i tap start streaming on obs and iam go live , but itsnt < if i go twitch too see if i am live its show iam offline ( my eng is bad )
yo yo, I've just changed my password today on twitch due to the recent leaks, and now that im about to go live i need to put my stream key in Stream elements again but i forgot how to do it... i already have my key from twitch i just dont know where it goes, anyone help? im now 27 min past scheduled start time EEK

Hey, is there a way to check for an OBS update? OBS.Live had an update yesterday, as well as OBS proper. I told it to remind me later with the assumption that I could just manually invoke an OBS update, but there's no "Check for update" option in Help.
Hello everyone, i am trying to add a rotating event list from streamelements to obs studios. When I go into "my overlays" to edit the event rotator, it doesn't show my recent follower, subscriber, most donated subs, ect. can someone please help.
Seriously, is there a way to force OBS itself to update? All I have for an update option is to update StreamElements. Is the lack of "Check for Updates" in Help a bug? A feature? If the latter, why?
I'd really like to get the hotfix in order to remedy the audio issue the hotfix... fixes
why is my activity feed like this? it reset itself for no reason and now it's useless. the window in the center used to be the whole window but now it's basically smushed and there's no viewer count anymore
hello a friend reseted my complet pc and i wanted to ask is their a way to get my obs settings overlays and all back?
Anyone else having problems with custom bot name? It worked fine until today. I changed the password of both accounts (the one that I stream and the one of the bot name), and updated both OBS and Streamelements, and isn't working anymore. Tried to logout and login again, put the account on the name so many time, even tried to uninstall and reinstall streamelements and no success. So, idk if this is happening because of the password change, or if it is a problem of SE/OBS in this new update....
Also, after I authorize the bot account, the button "Send test message" isn't available for me to click (only on the custom bot name option).
Not really sure where to ask this, but does anyone know the resolution I should be using? It keeps cutting off my alerts on the right side of the overlay for some reason

To add your overlays to OBS, add a new browser source in your scene. Paste your overlay URL in the browser source properties, set the dimensions to 1920x1080 (unless you changed them on the website) and check Shutdown source when not visible. https://youtu.be/KDvLynUqXI4
hi! for some reason my sub counter went back down to zero during a live stream. I can't figure out how to get it back to the correct number
i resolved it by deleting the old sub counter widget and making a new one. i don't know why it did that you guys might want to look into that error
ok the sub count just went back down to 1...??????
now it's at 34 xD
wtf is going on
Hello, I am trying to stream and I just updated the OBS. Now it won

Any help for cloud backup restore error??
Hello! I'm having issues with connecting my own account to use as the StreamElements custom bot account. I can login with my account with "connect custom bot account" but it won't go through. I've logged out and logged back into everything and reconnected my accounts. Any advice?
Getting the same issue. Not sure if it's something to do with the latest update - mine was working for a week or so, and now won't connect back
Pinging here as well because this is the same issue I'm experiencing, right down to the 'send test message' being greyed out
Did this get solved? I'm having the exact same issue.... 😦
@lavish valley ⤵️
- Right-click on your OBS desktop shortcut and open the Properties
- 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) - Open OBS (or restart if it was open)
- Open your web browser and type in:
localhost:40404 - Click on StreamElements - Activity feed
- Navigate to the Console tab
- Type the following into the console and hit enter:
store.customBot.removeCustomBotIntegration() - Try setting the custom bot name
- Remove the additional flag in step 2 from your shortcut properties.
What if I did this and it still won’t work
I also reinstalled the program and tried restarting
This is what it says
Where is settings do u mean log out and re log in?
I’ve done that
Oh wait I think I found it @toxic fern
Thank you!!!
This worked! Thank you!
Got it here too. Nice!
OK, i'm not liking the update.. I'm soo confused where my Dashboard and chat went... Can someone please tell me how to get them back as there no longer in the dock list.. 😦 .....Edited..... If anyone else is having this issue please read.. 1. click on the StreamElements tab at top right.. There you will see (OBS.Live Docks) 2. Stream settings are NOW a part of the activity feed((For some reason, idunno)) in activity feed dock click on the 3bars at the top left. There you will find Stream settings.. Which is where you NOW change stream title and game.. 3. If your having trouble with the chat Dock, your really not.. i thought i was for ever.. When you check it.. it will pop up in a teeny tinny box that you cant see at the very top left of the screen.. if your using multiple monitors it will be top left of your main monitor. Trust me, it's there.. just too tiny for the naked eye to see.. Try to grab it and stretch it. I luckily stumbled across it, thank goodness.. I hope this will help others with the same prob.. Thanks to all who tried to help.. 🙂
@paper maple i couldnt stream tonight cause OBS/streamelements wasnt working right. No overlays, no browers add option, no stream elements feature
@safe plank reinstall OBS entirely in this order: #helpdesk-selive message
our Activity feed dock has always had the stream settings since day 1.
You are most likely thinking of the Twitch integration of OBS Studio, where the stream settings(title, game, etc) is a separate dock then the integrated twitch activity feed.
As for the tiny chat dock - that might be specific issue to you and your monitor setup, as OBS might be failing to recover previous dock size.
I may have never paid any attention to it being there until now But Then where did the Twitch integration go?
If you are not seeing the OBS Twitch integrations and have OBS.Live installed, please follow these steps:
- Make sure you are on the latest and greatest version of OBS.Live
- Exit OBS (make sure OBS is not running)
- Delete
%appdata%\obs-studio\plugin_config\obs-browser\obs_profile_cookies - Start OBS.Live
- Settings > Stream > Disconnect > Connect
try this
most likely due to changing your password recently, the integration got disconnected
Right... OK now that makes sense.. TY
it says to double check my stream key, how do i do that?
Via the twitch dashboard settings page
how do i set streamelements bot to my name so i can use sub emotes in commands
Currently renaming the bot fully works with OBS.Live. You can follow this video guide to set it up: https://discordapp.com/channels/141203863863558144/494513233416421386/561516184718278676
Is it possible to show current song from "Media request" in obs?
If you have a separate overlay for Media Request you can set it up to show the current name. Also !song does that in chat.
What is this for? :0
Hello 🙂
Is there any known issues with custom bots recently?
Mine stopped working. I tried reconnecting it by "connect custom Bot account", but when I chose the Bot and test it, there is no reaction at all. Any ideas How I might resolve it?

snapping sources, as it says
I'm new to streaming I just started 3 days ago to learn how to stream
It would be generous if you provided an example ^^"
And btw
Does streamlabs auto configure the settings that fits the best with my pc and internet connection?
You see how the source snaps to the side?

Ok deleting %appdata%\obs-studio\plugin_config\obs-browser\obs_profile_cookies and reconnecting my profile fixed my panels to edit name of stream. but i still can't find where to show number of people watching right now. I remember it was red number and i think it was visible in panel where there was a button to start/stop stream.
Why isnt the !subs command working anymore?
Hello guys PLS help! .. i have problem with OBS .. does not respond at all to scene switching and bugs a lot. I have an update 27.0.1. When I download a new one, the installation stops and cancels it.
Not sure why I have two chat windows, one that says connecting indefinitely. The one that works is dockable, the other is not. o.O
hello - I can't get my overlay on streamelements to fit the browser screen on OBS. Any suggestions?
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
Thanks! So I updated my OBS resolution settings to match 1920x1080, and confirmed my overlay resolution is set at 1080, but the OBS is still only displaying the top left portion of the overlay
I do it,but still play last song when the song end and keep play till next song request get in

Hello everyone, i am trying to add a rotating event list from streamelements to obs studios. When I go into "my overlays" to edit the event rotator, it doesn't show my recent follower, subscriber, most donated subs, ect. can someone please help.
Hello everyone 🙂
Does anyone know of an optimal way to set up my Alertbox from Streamelements into OBS Live? I have it as a browser source, and even though all my alerts are webm (and small in size generally) my game and PC lag a lot for the duration of those alerts...
I have merged my youtube and twitch account ton streamelements, is there an efficient way to swap between those two in obs to change the layout (chat, activity feed..) Now im logging out and back in which ever platform i plan to stream on. Ofc. this wont be an issue if you stick with one platform but im currently testing the waters 🙂
There isn't a quicker way than logging in and out.
hello, i am making my final switch to obs
i am missing the last couple things, could someone assit me please
@dark mango ⤵️
Please ask your question in one helpdesk channel only. A support volunteer or StreamElements staff member will assist you as soon as they are available. Asking in multiple places will only result in confusion, not faster answers. Thank you for your patience.
Okay, thanks for reply 🙂
hey all, (StreamElements problem possibly linked to OBS)
so I set up custom sound effects via chat commands for the first time, and the sound effect will play twice after using the command is used a second time and more. couldn't find any answers online unfortunately
has anyone been having trouble connecting their custom bot name account since changing their twitch passwords with OBS.live? I select Set custom bot name in the activity feed settings. Then I can do the Connect Custom Bot Account and log in. The authorize window comes up but when I press Authorize and the window goes away, it doesn't take. I can't send a test message and the bot still uses StreamElements.
hey guys for some reason out of no where i tried to stream and it says cannot authenticate stream key and it wont let me stream plzz help

Twitch reset all stream keys, you may need to go to your Twitch dashboard and get a new one to use
@quick atlas then do i have to copy and paste that somewhere?
Thanks. Should have searched before I posted. It works now!
In your OBS, where you connected your account before
@quick atlas i dont know how i just tried and it said failure to authenticate with twitch missing refresh token
I keep trying to make a chat box widget that fits my new overlay size but it wont appear in obs when chat is active, i have a streamlabs chatbox for my just chatting screen and i was hoping to use a streamelements for obs live for my game capture screen. no matter what i seem to do tho, I cant get it to show chat after it works in the streamelements website
idk if anyone can help me, i just figured it was worth a shot
nevermind i did something stupid and have figured it out!
hey since the last obs update my game capture is just a black screen i tryed some games but i cant fix it. anyone can help?
Hello can some one help with an issue which is that my game capture is full black screen and doesn't capture my game
Does anyone know how to update "currently playing game" in the premade overlays? I found one I like but that setting will not update. I've tried !setgame in the bot and also tried it in the dashboard but nothing works. It's the Dark Matter theme if that helps at all. Thanks in advance.
i can help with that
what are u using obs
can u send me a screen shot of your obs
sure
I can't stream at all when I open OBS. I either get OBS crashed or if it loads, the image where the content should appear is just a white block. I uninstalled and reinstalled OBS but still having the same issue. @full thunder
why when i edit a follower alert only half shows up and in my editer its all there? @SE.Support
Hey, my stream elements keeps saying my twitch token is no longer connected, what should I do? I've logged in multiple times and it's still not working and when I press start streaming it takes forever to load and then says " Couldn't access the specified channel or stream key."
Exactly why i came here, same problem with me
Glad I'm not the only one
Question, for some reason I can't seem to connect my custom bot account. I can see the "STREAMELEMENTS" and My account as the bot names but even after I log into it, I can't select my bot account's name. Any tips/help?
all stream keys have been reset by twitch because of the hack, you might have to manually re-enter it
I am making alerts for my channel and on the site they emulate perfectly but after i copy the browser source and put it into the software i get extra media that pops up with the alert that i dont have selected
Thank you, do you know how I can re-enter it?
i dont but i can try to check
the only thing i can see to do is go to your pfp in the top right and select channels, scroll down and delete your twitch channel and re-add it. that might work but im not entirely sure
@cerulean basin if that doesnt work go into your twitch account settings, click on connections and scroll down and disconnect stream elements and reconnect it
@full thunder
I'm having the same problem, and I don't know what you mean by this. Do you mean go to PFP in StreamElements?
im trying to edit my alerts and overlay.. but keeps telling me invalid authorization token.. why?
@reef stump ⤵️
Please logout of StreamElements at https://streamelements.com/logout and then login again to your account (Twitch/YouTube/Facebook).
Hello all, I have obslive running on my PC. For some reason, since I updated I cannot get "Game Capture" as a source working. No other settings or in game resolutions were changed (source resolution in obs and game match). Have their been reports on this as an issue since the recent update?
have you tried display capture?
hey me and a friend have been setting up our stream and our recent subs aren't showing in the activity feed and was wondering how to fix that. If anyone knows how to show them i'd appreciate it
Is anything else showing in the activity feed?

It wont let me stream it keeps telling me that there some thing worng with the Serves on OBS

Hi everyone I am totally a noob here How do I bring a overlay from stream elements to obs live
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
Any ideas?
found a fix
Hey I'm wondering how to import my overlays from streamlabs to OBSlive and when ever i click and do the steps to import it never imports them. It says it is but it doesnt. If this is a issue that is easily solved by me not being dumb then please help.
Good morning to youse, all!....Does anyone use "Camlink" by Elgato, for streaming with a camera? I purchased it recently for my Canon Rebel SL3 and it looks great in OBS, but the lag is significant. The "advanced audio settings - sync offset" changes I typically adjust for webcam lag in OBS aren't making a difference, so not sure if it's a setting on my camera, or what. Been perusing through various YT tutorials, but can't seem to find the answer. Thanks!
Hello, has anyone of you ever seen this:
You should not touch video delay at all, just adjust the sound delay for the source that is behind/ahead in the advanced audio settings.
What platform do you stream to, YT or FB?
im streaming to twitch
Thanks, @nova scaffold This is what I'm adjusting (sync offsets), but the delay problem doesn't change, even when I bring it up to 9999 ms.
And this is what you need. Get an idea how far ahead/behind the sound is compared to the video and then try to enter the details. You need to do that for your microphone.
Recording that at the same time should help so you can check the sync in the recording later.
...so even when I change it to 9999 ms and nothing changes with the lag, do you think the issue can be corrected in OBS? Thanks @nova scaffold
Yes the issue can be corrected. You might be editing the wrong device. Just in general, try different USB ports for the Camlink - it can be funky. See if the delay changes
and then work with the sync offset to adjust it. If that does not do anything, then we have a bug somewhere
Hey everyone, I'm here to try and figure out whether I have an issue with my PC or Elements/OBS Live. So I just started using it about 2 weeks ago and it's been great for the most part. The problem is that if I try to stream meaty games that have come out in the last few years, OBS doesn't pick it up on Game capture or Window capture. It will pick it up on display capture, which isn't too much of an issue I guess, but it is annoying, and sometimes the picture will freeze. An example would be The Medium (though I know that has issues with my GPU). I also just tried Visage off the Xbox for PC app and it wasn't picking it up unless it was on display capture. Plus it seems my GPU is at 100% usage and a few cores on my CPU are 100% as well. In Visage's case, I should be able to play it without having much issues going by the specs for it, but maybe adding OBS on top is just too much for it. I'm not sure. Here's my specs anyway:
GPU:Rx580 8gb. CPU: r3600. MB: ASRock X570 steel legend. Ram: 16gb 3600 cl16. Running dual monitors at 1080p.
Hello, I'm Live on OBS and I'm streaming to Twitch but it says I'm not live on Twitch, I have restarted my PC several times and its not going Live to Twitch but it says Im LIve on OBS
I've also tried resetting my Twitch Stream Key
Updated your stream keys?
yes
tried the login option instead of stream keys?
how?
My stream key is there but its not going Live
I'm Live but I'm not Live
I've looked at this article andit didn't seem to help
There should be an authenticate to twitch button
I didn't receive that
is it a new thing?
I've been live streaming perfectly fine everyday except for today
It is in your obs settings under the stream tab
It also gives you access to the dock to change tags
Can you screenshot the whole window?
I am Live in OBS but not Twitch
I am going to try resetting my stream keys again and hopefully that helps
Okay nevermind, it worked as as soon as I put use authentication
Thanks for the help!
Hello dear StreamElements Team!

I am having trouble using OBS.live. Whenever i try to do a test stream i get this message "Could not access the specified channel or stream key. Please double check your stream key. If it is correct, there may be a problem connecting to the server." I have logout out of twitch on my browser and streamelements and have been using the two step login but it still doesnt work

hey I have been setting up my stream for youtube and my recent subs aren't showing in the activity feed and was wondering how to fix that. If anyone knows how to show them i'd appreciate it. Twitch followers showed up but not for youube.
I don't know if this is the appropriate place to ask, but I was wondering can streamelements run alerts for 2 different platforms at the same time. Like if I have the browser links for both Twitch and YouTube will they both run? I assume they would but I wanted to know for sure
I am trying to start the stream and its saying stream start requested
and it pops up a windows with start streaming to youtube
i dont know what to do pls help 😄
Hi I just want to ask about media request, even though autoplay is off the music I set there plays after the music I pick.
<@&382267076632379392>
This is a known issue. Logging out and back into OBS.Live can help, but currently we do not have a specific fix for that issue.
i relogged didnt work...
We do not have other solutons currently, this is a known bug

hi, I'm trying to use pixel match switcher, so I reinstall OBS with the plugin bundle. after a fresh install the plugin works but there's 3 separate prompts to update obs.live and streamFX. when I update, pixel match switcher and others just disappear from the tools section, even if the .dll files are still in the plugins folder. my solution for now is just not updating, but the prompts will still be there
Is there a new obs.live update?
pixel match switcher comes bundled with 0.31.8
I cannot get my custom bot to connect after changing passwords from the Twitch leak. I have uninstalled and reinstalled obs.live, i have signed in and out multiple times, I have used the "connect custom bot account" action probably a dozen times. After i get through the sign in and click authorize it takes me back to the activity feed settings and no new option is available under "current bot name" - would definitely appreciate some help trouble shooting this!
"sent test message" also remains greyed out and unclickable

- Right-click on your OBS desktop shortcut and open the Properties
- 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) - Open OBS (or restart if it was open)
- Open your web browser and type in:
localhost:40404 - Click on StreamElements - Activity feed
- Navigate to the Console tab
- Type the following into the console and hit enter:
store.customBot.removeCustomBotIntegration() - Try setting the custom bot name
- Remove the additional flag in step 2 from your shortcut properties.

There's this mystery OBS Browser page that uses the most out of every process, and I can't seem to identify which web source it is. Is it a general handler or is it a specific source?
I would still need help with this please
You should only have one browser source per scene (optimally), and make sure to check the box to shut them down when inactive
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
this is showed me everything but how to upload my overlays on my obs

Well the way I handle it is a series of nested scenes that are low resource use. But what's weird to me is I removed/toggled each one and that one at the top never went away. So I'm trying to isolate what it is.
You have a browser source somewhere that isn’t shut down. Remember that your chat and activity feed are also browser windows
Yeah, I definitely shut those down! Super strange.
Hi! Since changing my passwords I cannot login with my custom bot name account to OBS.Live. I tried logging out and back in, reinstalling OBS.Live. They don't seem to work, I tried to open OBS studio as admin and a normal user they don't seem to work too. I wonder if there's anything I can try.

Hey guys! I am new to streaming and just started working on my alerts for obs. All of my alerts are working as intended, except for my cheer alert. Whenever I try to test my cheer alert, no matter how many times I change a setting and save, it always shows as the beginner cheer animation that Streamlabs provides. Does anyone have any solutions to this? Much appreciated in advance!
Check the variations for that alert. If you leave those as is, it will play defaults instead of your custom settings
Hey how do i add overlays for obs stuido

@quick atlas that did just the trick! thank you so much 🙂
i just want the stream info the followers and the chat box
So im using an overlay from stream elements and whenever i copy paste the link into the browser source it comes up with only ythe top right of the source page, when i try to stretch it, it only grows i cant get the full page
@icy pasture ⤵️
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
Ya that didnt work
i still only see a portion of the source
Nvm found the issue
What are the steps to importing your scenes from streamlabs to obslive?
wait
Why is the window in obs live so small? it turns out that my overlay was fine the window im viewing it through is tiny.
Hello! I recently changed the password to my custom bot account on Twitch and am now having trouble connecting that account in OBS Live. I followed the usual steps to connect the account, I log in and click "Authorize" and then the log in window closes, but the custom bot account does not appear in the drop down menu to select a custom bot name. Would love some help with this.
This is my first post here so please let me know any helpful info I should include. Thank you!

Hi, i was wondering if i could control my friends stream from my pc with the obs live or if i can only access his dashboard ?
I'm not sure I understand some of these instructions. Is there a real person that could further assist?
Try using this. Same instructions but a tad better #helpdesk-twitch message
I'm following the instructions but I just reach the "This site can't be reached" page in the browser, just as shown in the photo. But I don't see any Stream Elements Activity Feed links to click on that page.
Hi, i was wondering if i could control my friends stream from my pc with the obs live or if i can only access his dashboard ?
@green vessel did you choose the obs icon or the OBS.Live one?
You cannot control another persons obs remotely
I used the OBS icon, not OBS.live
Could you screenshot what you put in the box.
Absolutely! To be clear, do you mean what is put in the "target" field under properties?

And OBS is open when you did the browser step?
Correct
Done. Took me to this page:
Try 127.0.0.1:40404
Aha! That has taken me to a new place! I'll try following the remaining instructions from here. Thank you!
I was able to navigate to the Console tab and input the command from the instructions and received this error:
I bet you have 2 consoles too -_-
Did you click past where the activity feed window shows?
I did not but I just realized I clicked the wrong Activity feed link.
Apologies. Trying again!
This has worked! Thank you for your help and patience. Greatly appreciated! 
My games arent showing on OBS , anyone know how to fix?
does anyone know how to remove this dialogue box from appearing everytime i open up OBS? these were just temporary overlays that i had made, and have since been long deleted
is there a way to delete these sources after the files have been erased?
Delete them from whatever scene they were in
Check other scenes
Sure, go ahead.
Its about OBS, i updated my OBS, then i test my stream but the alerts its not showing up,as well the event list.
Are any of your overlays showing?
Hi, so I had to do the debug thing to get my custom bot to work yesterday, and that worked, only now my custom bot sends every message twice
Hmm seems to do this when I am using a firefox browser window for my Stream Elements activity feed
But when I close that, it only does it once
I did not have this issue before the change password, debug obs.live to get custom bot back
because of the way I have my windows set up, it always goes on top of my windowed projector for my cam
any other windows I have open from obs docks, this one goes on top of
that's why I use browser
still, it wasn't a problem before
maybe if the activity feed didn't have such a huge menu bar on the top it would work better for me
My custom bot has stopped working and attempts to re-authorize keep failling. After logging in successfully and pressing "authorize", a browser window briefly opens in OBS.Live and then closes immediately and the connection isn't made

Hello there, I'm upgrading my boot drive which has OBS on it, all my overlay settings are online and presumably safe, but I was wondering how could I migrate all the OBS settings to the new drive, which folder(s) should I save?
you can export 'profiles' [for stream key, docks layout etc] and 'scene collections [for scene collections p: ]' locally if you want those files, and also run a cloud backup via OBS.Live, those two should do it
in essence your overlays are indeed all saved in the cloud as part of your account (dashboard > my overlays) so any local changes on your PC shouldn't affect those
yeah i'm aware about the overlays, didn't know OBS settings get saved as well tho
Thank you
I believe our cloud backup should take care of those, but no harm to backup locally too
- I'm not 100% sure we're saving profiles
and no worries 
Thanks again
my pleasure! <3
Hey im having trouble witch streamelements.
I even tried to use stream labs but it runs unstable for me.
so back to elements with following issue
@rigid ledge ⤵️
StreamElements menu, on top of OBS > Logout > Login
And in OBS Settings > Stream > disconnect/ reconnect account
this is how the login window looks....there is some kind of visual issue?
have you tried closing the obs and reopen it as admin?
yes
Hey, my games aren't showing up on OBS can anyone help?
it happened from one day to another, never had issues before
in even installed stream elements new
maybe i should reinstall obs?
solved
i deinstalled obs and reinstalled it. solved it for me
had this happen randomly?
yes
Hello all.
Is OBS having issues atm ? When I want to go live OBS shuts down.
when did it start? are you using obs as admin?
It just started today. Always running it as admin
Never had issues before. I just uninstalled it and reinstalled right now... Fingers crossed
Even unistalling it didn't resolve the issue
I give up... It's no use... Nothing works...
so is this happening only when OBS.Live is installed?
can we confirm you uninstalled OBS.Live and could go live with OBS Studio?
hello
I am streaming on Trovo
I was wonderring
is there a way for OBS to show
the Trovos activity feed
instead of asking me to log into Twitch?
coz I know it used to
and I don't know how to bring it back up
I can't go online with any of those... As soon as I click on start streaming OBS closes...
OK thank You for a fast response as always.... NOT! I figured it out 😛
ok, have you uninstalled OBS.Live? @rugged quail
Uninstalling it again right now
It keeps closing even without OBS.Live
mmmmmm
and it used to work normally you said
I'd say keep OBS.Live uninstalled and consult OBS on that
Obs.live is a plugin for OBS Studio for the best OBS support, please join their Official Discord @ https://discord.gg/obsproject
if it was related to the plugin it would have been resolved without it
i believe they'll be able to assist with that 👍
Yes... Been streaming for almost a year now and never had issues with it
Thnx. Will head overthere right now
no worries. I hope they'll be able to help! feel free to @ me here once you have a resolution to let me know what it was (if you want ofc, I'm just curious)
Had the similar earlier today & Obs Studio froze. It also froze whole rig when went to do other things. Only way to exit was via power button. At Obs Studio's Discord was recommended to ask from SE's Discord if they've delivered update to match their latest patch.
I know that earlier this week both SE & Obs Studios pushed out update, but maybe SE Live plugin needs another. Obs Studio's Support wrote that 'Log File' displays a lot of 'SE Live' plugin data on matching time. Edit: Won't reinstall cause of plugin missing update (if froze cause of it).
hello, I currently have my ps5 headset hooked up to my laptop and I am trying to add it as an audio source to obs. would anyone be able to help me?

Hi helpdesk I am noticing I am not seeing followers in my activity feed. I can confirm I am not filtering them via the activity feed filter. The alert does not pop up while live but I can test it no problem. I saw other have the problem via search but I am not seeing an exact fix. Any point in the right direction will be helpful
@vast wren Hi Maya you seem to have the magic fix for followers not showing up in activity feed / follower alerts not working. Is there a way to fix it on my end. All the resolutions I have seen thus far are thanking you for fixing it 🙂
quick quick, and i promise its a quick question, how do i change the stream title on OBS.live?
i used to have a window with it, but its gone after the update
@plain ether I click the 3 lined icon to the left of activity feed and then click Stream settings to find the stream title

Can anyone help with game capture not working
I keep seeing how to separate audios by SOURCE within OBS itself but thats not what i'm looking for. What I am looking for is a way to control the volumes and the audios from each APPLICATION that is playing audio onto my OBS and essentially ITEMIZE each audio source being played THROUGH the Desktop Audio. Is that something that can be done because I would love to be able to instantly mute my web browser with a hot key or control each sound that my PC plays.
I don't want my stream to hear any system sounds for example. I do want them to hear music but i want to be able to control the music without messing with the mixer on my PC and divert all control of it to OBS. I want to be able to have headphones playing my audio as well which is an audio mixer thing I know but does anyone else understand what I'm trying to do or am I just overthinking this?

@dreamy ember that's what you want.
mod for a streamer here! the streamer i'm modding for right now is currently also experiencing the same problem and i've tried looking for an answer as to why it is but i haven't seen anything. if anyone has any solutions please let me know :)
@rugged quail Please explain the issue in detail
if you want i can send you the link to a clip of this happening but basically the streamer i was modding for had mediashare on to test it and it went fine but after the last video it started looping the last video that was in the queue even after mods cleared the queue. we tried everything even resorting to making a new mediashare overlay but no matter what it kept looping the last video in the queue. is this a problem with streamelements or obs?
I have that and I'm afraid the tutorials on how to use it are just confusing me lol. I keep thinking I don't have what I need because I can't get it to work. The first thing with tech that doesn't come naturally to me since I was 19....voicemeeter!!
Grrrrr 😂
it basically repeated the last video in the queue despite the queue itself being cleared, right?
yes exactly
at one point it played an entire video despite the mediashare only being for a specific time
Let's start with a simple solution, like reloading the entire media share system
both on the website and on OBS.Live, if the streamer is using it
i will get back to you if any updates occur! thanks for the help 
About Media Request in OBS.Live Widget: When my backup playlist encounters a private or country-blocked video, Media Request used to just skip it, but now it gets stuck on the video, playing nothing, when I then skip it manually, two songs are skipped and I can actually see the "this song is not available" blabla orange text on my skipped-to song.... Hope it makes sense.
I can't get my custom bot name to work anymore - i recently changed my bot account PW and had to reset it in obslive in obs. I've gone through all the steps, my tipping and panels are set, the new PW is correct and i'm authorising streamelements to use my bot account. I can see a new connection being formed called "StreamElements - Custom Bot" in my twitch connections page, but it still isn't being set up. It still says "CONNECT CUSTOM BOT ACCOUNT" and has the "SEND TEST MESSAGE" button greyed out. And my command responses get posted under the StreamElements account.
I've also updated everything to the most recent version.

Hi, i recently got a pihen video capture and im trying to connect my ps4 to obs stream elements but its only capturing the sound
ok, i got it working but is there anyway to see a bigger view of it so i can play the game?
what to do if step 3 isnt working
It only has a hdmi input
hi, for some reason the media request keeps replaying the last song.. is there a way to stop it? thanks
hi ! i have a problem where, even if the whole setup is for twitch, when i hit the " start streaming " button, it send me to the youtube live dashboard, and even if i changed everything in the settings, i can't seems to be able to stream on twitch ? or any other platforms btw
@soft knot maybe as a late response... I again changed my custom bot pw today (after setting it up some last week with your help) and it did not work again. The "debug" method worked... it seems to be a reproducable issue.
Anyone using the media request and it plays the last song repeatedly?!?
it's an issue we're on and should be resolved
@muted quest ⤵️
StreamElements menu, on top of OBS > Logout > Login
try that for a sec
and also refresh or close and open the MR dock after relog
tell me if it still does that
hey, how can i unban people from media request?
@long bobcat ok, it stopped repeating the last song.. i logged out and logged back in from the "StreamElements" menu.. and also logged out from the stream key settings and I just put my stream key in instead of login in from there
nice, thank you for updating me! glad to see the fix dev deployed helped!
let me just find the instructions for that, i forgot :X
Sure thx
aaah there's no method for you to do that, we can help with it. wanna DM me the username\s? might take me a few mins to complete though :x
Sure
Shame that still no SE Live fix patch that matches Obs Studio's latest patch. The one that arrived early this month. Again Obs Studio froze right at launch, couldn't close it even via t.manager & rig stuck to "restarting" screen
Now fingers crossed for no registry messed after forced shutdown. Sad face from SE supporter
Hello, i'm having an issue where as soon as I hit "go live", my whole OBS freezes. It only happens when i have the streamelements add on on. What can I do? I've uninstalled and reinstalled 3 times now
can i still change my bot name trough ground control?
You can however it's recommended you use OBS.Live as GC is prone to errors and unsupported.
Well I am trying to determine now whether i have issues with obs live or obs studio clean installation on the latest version. I streamed for 2 hours and this is what happened for the last 3 days on 27.1.1 - 27.1.2 and 27.1.3 with obs live running
apparently the name change feature is not available on ground control anymore according to a friend of mine?
They're not wrong but not correct either.
it will only work with obs live installed?
If you prefer to have it with GC you're going on the assumption you know it can/will go oops at any time and I can have staff flip the switch for it.
can i get assistance with importing overlays?

Please logout of StreamElements at https://streamelements.com/logout and then login again to your account (Twitch/YouTube/Facebook).
Do this first, then log back in and re-copy the overlay url and paste it in obs

To add your overlays to OBS, add a new browser source in your scene. Paste your overlay URL in the browser source properties, set the dimensions to 1920x1080 (unless you changed them on the website) and check Shutdown source when not visible. https://youtu.be/KDvLynUqXI4
Make sure your overlays are the correct resolution
My amd encoder is showing up in my streamelements program, how do I fix this issue?
howdy. so i use the custom overlays and don't know what to do about this one thing. when i have the browser where i have the streamelements overlay open, i can hear test alerts perfectly fine. however, once i change focus to another window, the sound no longer plays through my headphones but slobs still said it was playing. i decided to whip out normal obs and see if i could hear it through there instead but same issue. any clue on what to do?
im going black screens on game capture do i need to talk to obs??
i already have obs studio installed but i still installed obs.live. Is that fine?
hi, my stream alerts haven't been going off today. Is this a known issue? The alert box is set up via browser source from Streamlabs, but I've had zero issues with it until today. If I should ask in their discord feel free to let me know
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.
my obs.live chat isnt updating. every time i check it says error loading data
After I start my OBS my youtube video sounds dosent come
its something like I have muted the videos sound
but I did not
chatstats are not working on me
In theory, which would be less resource intensive? An opacity filter, or adjusting a color source with an alpha value?
can someone help why is this overlay cropped??

Yes, it does... However, there was a fix implemented yesterday to a bug we've been experiencing. When did you encounter this issue last?
apologies, it seems to work now =)
Great to hear! 🙂
I've tried a bunch of things but for some reason my overlays are showing as the SE login page? Is this a common problem?
@novel hamlet ⤵️
Please logout of StreamElements at https://streamelements.com/logout and then login again to your account (Twitch/YouTube/Facebook).
Tried that (several times). Also logged out through OBS.live and logged in to no avail
If I reload overlays my overlays appear for a split second but then revert back to login page
have you tried any other overlay?
All of my scenes and SE overlays have the same problem
Funnily enough, if I open the source, it does show.
So my issue seems to be fixed. I wish I could say for certain what the fix was. It was/or a combination of hiding and unhiding sources, using the 'interact' function on sources, reloading overlays (and also re-pasting URLs) and doing another round of logging out and in again
I am running into a message that says "We could not create a Live Stream on Youtube," despite my account being connected and my YT live being open and ready for obs to begin broadcast. Any help?
@true sparrow ⤵️
Please logout of StreamElements at https://streamelements.com/logout and then login again to your account (Twitch/YouTube/Facebook).
Okay doing that now
That didn't work but I figured it out
With youtube, you can't use the "Create a new youtube live with these settings" option, you have to use the "Go live with youtube dashboard" setttings
Just in case anyone runs into that in the future.
My next issue, I accidentally deleted the chatbox that stream elements puts on my OBS, how to I re activate that box on my OBS?
Found it, nevermind!
Thank you 😆
Actually, I'm sorry, but it turns out when just playing naturally my media request did break again...
previously I tested it by skipping songs, and it would work, but just letting songs play out, when it hits an unavailable song of any kind, it gets stuck there
This happened uhh 3 hours ago
This is normal, if a song can't be played due to geo restrictions etc. it can happen
previously it would automatically skip though
now it gets stuck until I skip
its just frustrating cause I tune out and then realize media request had been broken for like 30 minutes
We can investigate the issue, meanwhile we recommend skipping the songs with a hotkey
Age restriction is still a thing that you manually have to skip with Media Request too. that used to auto skip too doesnt at all now.
My Problem is that my Obs shows that the stream is started but it doesn´t go live.
Hey guys out there,
I've got a lot of custom commands running with my chat bot. Now, when my chat starts to use a lot of them in a short period of time, the bot stops working for about a minute. Is there a way to use a local running bot? I used Google, but didn't got any information..
Best regards
Max
Hello all,
I changed my name on twitch a while back and now chatstats isn't working. any ideas?
I'm getting a 404 error for stats.streamelements.com/c/BigDuck20
This happened to me earlier this week. Try signing out of StreamElements at the top bar there, then sign back in. Then also go into stream settings and disconnect/ reconnect your twitch acct (if streaming to twitch)
Name changes do that, they can reset it for you though. What is your old name and what is your new name?
new name is BigDuck20, old name... it's been too long to remember. any way to check?
Maybe look at past emails? 🤷🏻♂️
maybe it was bonana25
I’ll pass that on and see what happens
Okay check it now. Should work but everyone resets at 0
ayyyyy 🙏 big duck bless
that worked
Is there anyway to route the media request musics so that it's not included in Twitch VoD? What I looked up it doesn't seem to be possible at least at the moment?
actually if i don't have the obs dock of media request on and use the website for the media requests would that work? I have GoXLR and my firefox is routed to Music and Music is on different audio channel in OBS
Hey! Im in need of help since my streamlabels seems to be acting up.
Everything works fine when it comes to subs, followers etc but it doesnt update my donation goals. I also noticed that it didnt even show up in "recent events" HELP!!!
Hey, I'm having a little trouble with OBS.Live where my Activity Feed always shows up with a network error and no activity. Ground control works fine, and the website loads for me without issue, but the OBS plugin seems to be struggling. I've already tried reinstalling OBS.Live.
Hello, im all new here and my english isn't that good either. I've been using Streamlabs for 1-2 years now and my computer can't really handle it. And now when im trying to setup my OBS.live i can't get it to work. Is there anyone that can help me with some basics? Much Love.
i cant use my chat dock its not letting me type or see chat
Is there an issue with media request not playing the sr automatically?
What’s the first problem you’re having?
What platform are you streaming to that you cant see chat?
Yeh yeh! Did you change your name recently and are we talking about twitch?
i did and yea twitch
Yep Twitch, I think i changed my name from walter95 to WalterLoireMNF
mine from itssrade to RadeHQ
Can i change it before you check it for me?
Your name again?
You’re all good. It reset everyone to 0
Yours have also been reset!
Thanks
thanks
Hola
obs wont let me stream on twitch even though i have twitch selected in the stream settings
hey guys im having a problem streaming to fb. it happened in the middle of my stream yesterday. wiht stream elments installed OBS will freeze when i start streaming.
Hi i go to create a new overlay and it gives me a message saying "uh oh invalid authorization token" How do I fix this? Please Help...
^^^^^
I'm having an issue getting the obslive to accept my custom bot name (or even just run with my broadcaster name). This occurred after needing to change passwords and such because of the Twitch data breach - I successfully reconnect to my bot account and authorize it within obslive, but I'm not able to use it or my own Twitch account, I have to use Stream Elements bot (I want to use one of those two because of a command with a sub badge attached). Any suggestions?
I have trouble with the sounds in my stream store: the ones i newly uploaded cannot be played. however, if i simulate them on the website, they work. but Neither the website-redeem, nor the command redeem works. Can anybody help?
Is anyone having problems with their chatbot? I cant get it to work in obslive or regular obs studio. I have tried "part channel" and clicking rejoin multiple times. I also cannot access chat stats.
i cant get my OBS to let me select the latency for YT streams anymore, the "Manage Broadcast" button is no longer there
i got the problem done: i re-uploaded the soundfiles, now it should work. lets see whether it still does tomorrow
I became an affiliate today and now I can't stream through OBS. Where do I update the streamkey?
settings>stream
There's no category for stream key
you are connected through twitch, it should just update it
it's not
yeah i would sign out and back in
disconnect or sign out? I have signed and closed multiple times '
I'm not sure what happened but I can't use any of my commands. Regardless if I'm online or offline. I tried the "part channel" on the StreamElements website, then rejoined but that didn't do anything. S.E. is moderator on my channel so I'm confused as to why I can't get any commands to work.
They're both custom commands and normal commands (such as !8ball and !roulette)
I need help, i'm sure it's a quick fix but my game capture wouldn't fit to my obs stream view window. I right clicked on my "game capture" source and choose "Resize output (source size) and it made my OBS stream preview window extremely small and the actual captured gameplay larger then the displayed are in OBS. I've tried undo and it skips over the the previous look.
whats uo fam, first time using se and obs live, is there a way to add a viewers count
did you try right click, transform and fit to screen
@minor violet Yea I did but the size of my OBS preview window/canvas is shrunk now so the game capture source fits but my overlays etc only show the upper left portion of that
go to the browser source and make sure the resolution is 1920 X 1080
@minor violet I'm using an Elgato S+ to capture gameplay from my PS5 so i'm no browser source available, but the game capture doesn't give me an option to change the resolution
strange,
@minor violet Thanks for trying to help still though
I'm sorry it wont just take a pic of one individual screen, but as you can see in the OBS preview window it has enlarged my preview screen to the point where everything across the top is no longer visible and camera in the lower left is barely peeking
@scarlet drift If you do the windows key + shift + S you can take a "snip" (screenshot) of a whole screen or just one small area
I tried making the game capture fit that screen and it enlarged the OBS window/canvas so large that my overlay, cam, etc isn't even visible. I checked my base/output video settings and they were changed so I set them back to what I originally thought they were at 1920x1080 but the screen is just huge now and the game capture still doesn't even fit the screen.
At this point I'd be fine just reverting to how I had everything set up just yesterday, is there a possible way of doing that? Everything was fine then and now nothing fits the screen at all. I have 9 scenes and REALLY don't want to have to adjust everything 1 by one to fit this (I'm assuming) new aspect ratio where my overlays are too large for the screen and game capture is too small.
Anyone's ps5 audio cut in and out when streaming?
Had it not coming through at all while using a headset but never in and out.
I don't know where i can talk about it but i have an issue with SE. My session data keeps resetting i don't know why
Can I please have some help about it?
cant connect my twitch account
@primal laurel ⤵️
Obs.live is a plugin for OBS Studio for the best OBS support, please join their Official Discord @ https://discord.gg/obsproject
Can someone help me with that 🙂
can you elaborate please which specific data? also assuming this is related to twitch ,have you changed your password lately?
Thanks for your answer, I was mainly talking about sub data

Please try the below steps:
1.logout using this link https://streamelements.com/logout and wait 10 minutes
2. log back in and wait a few more minutes
3. navigate to this link https://streamelements.com/dashboard/session - click on the totals tab and click reset session.
Hey, I'm having an issue with custom bot names. It doesn't show any errors when authorizing and authenticating, but it simply won't allow me to use that account for my chat bot. Is there a resolution to this? I've seen a few other people mention it, but haven't seen if it's been answered yet.
another day, another time my media request gets stuck on something unavailable, I think I'm going to switch to nightbots song request, it seems to be much more solid in these cases.
Alright so I just did it
What do I have to do know ?
Because it's still written, no subscribers data
I manually added the subscriber count on session data
have rest the totals data?
yup!
Where or how to test my widgets on OBS?

To add your overlays to OBS, add a new browser source in your scene. Paste your overlay URL in the browser source properties, set the dimensions to 1920x1080 (unless you changed them on the website) and check Shutdown source when not visible. https://youtu.be/KDvLynUqXI4
Heya!
Somehow, I can't connect my Twitch-Bot (for a custom Bot-Name). I get an Email from Twitch, that I successfully logged into the account and I also got into the point where I could authorise SE to my Bot-Account. But in OBS-SE it don't register as connected and I am not able to send a test message

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/re4theQ.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
