thank you

#

Hello, I've been trying to set up the alerts on the Pixelart series to have custom sounds versus the default ones. I have removed the default sound and replaced it with the sound I wish to play. I have the volume for the new sound set to 75% and the Video sound set to 0% and I somehow hear both sounds at the same time. This does not seem to effect variations.

#

I'm aware that I can technically copy them, but then I cannot use the randomized option.

#

Ok, so I have learned that if I play the alert directly from the variations settings list, it doesn't play the default sound

#

however, when I use the emulator, I get the default sound playing on top of the new one

kindred fox
#

Make sure your variations are configured correctly. Can you screenshot them?

simple kestrel
#

Here you are

kindred fox
#

Is that the custom image?

#

Also when you’re testing do you have both the browser and obs open?

simple kestrel
#

no, I wanted to use the images that came with the overlay. I do have both open, however, I did check the box so it does not play the alert in both locations

kindred fox
#

You can mute the editor and then test it

simple kestrel
#

how do I do that?

kindred fox
#

Umm bottom right of editor

#

I think

simple kestrel
#

I see it now

#

yes, both sounds are still playing

kindred fox
#

Do you have alerts in multiple overlays?

#

Make sure to check the box to “shutdown when not visible” in every overlay properties in obs

simple kestrel
#

It is currently my only overlay. I just made the switch from Streamlabs

#

but somehow checking that box did fix it

kindred fox
#

Odds are it was open in another scene in obs

simple kestrel
#

yup that's fixed. Thank you so much!

If you are not seeing the OBS Twitch integrations and have OBS.Live installed, please follow these steps:

  1. Make sure you are on the latest and greatest version of OBS.Live
  2. Exit OBS (make sure OBS is not running)
  3. Delete %appdata%\obs-studio\plugin_config\obs-browser\obs_profile_cookies
  4. Start OBS.Live
  5. Settings > Stream > Disconnect > Connect
kindred fox
#

Try that

#

See if it works

simple kestrel
#

Thank you again @kindred fox !! I just ran through all of my alerts and they're working just fine.

I'm getting hung up trying to import my SL-OBS into the OBS Live. Stuck on importing alerts (2 of 1), but we're at 100%. What do I need to do to get the import to complete?

toxic fern
#

Any actual local media files?

frozen flare
#

No, but I do have the files on a passport HD and can move them to this computer. Will that do it?

toxic fern
#

Where doesn't matter. No media sources at all and only images/overlays?

frozen flare
#

Correct

toxic fern
#

Lets see this.

dapper iglooBOT
#

Please provide a log from your last stream. To do this, in OBS go to Help > Log Files > Upload Current Log File and paste the link to the log file here.

frozen flare
#

Doubt there will be any logs. I'm just now converting to OBS. Will see.

glacial jolt
#

is there anyway to add your own transitions, rather than just the 'fade' etc?

#

please ping me if you reply to me thumbsUpAnim

#

nvm, worked it out, its stinger or something lol, no need to reply

rugged quail
#

also, since the import reads as 100%, can you see the overlays on your StreamElements page?

Can someone please tell me when the "SAVE" button in OBS Live under Media Request, will start working again? Currently no reaction when clicking on it. It does not save there anymore. Also logging out and logging in again made no difference. Problem have others I know, too! What works is that you do it via the SE Dashboard page but why so cumbersome?

heya! i'm having some trouble with my obs.live. i'm trying to get my stream overlays (that i created on the stream elements desktop browser site) transferred into obs.live; i've submitted it correctly i think (as a browser source) but the alerts still don't pop up correctly when i test them

@rugged quail ⤵️

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

Can anyone help me out with getting my font to show in OBS? The browser source has no Custom CSS in OBS

#

It's a google font, and im using @import to use it in the CSS.

dapper iglooBOT
#

@green lodge ⤵️

Google Fonts
More than 900 google fonts are supported at this time. You can preview them here: https://fonts.google.com/

Custom Fonts

Steps:

  1. Install the font on the streaming PC or choose a pre-installed windows font.
  2. In the overlay widget settings, select Text Settings
  3. Click on Enable Custom Font
  4. Type the name of the font as it appears in the windows font directory (This is usually C:\Windows\Fonts)

Note: After installing fonts, the browser and OBS must be restarted for the font to appear.

toxic fern
#

No need for custom css

green lodge
#

Ohh I am truly dumb. Thanks Bot! And thank you sudo, I'm using the CSS just out of preference because text stroke and shadowing options are easier fore me that way

#

Oh my gosh I'm even dumber, I didn't have the font installed on my Streaming PC, Only gaming. Don't be me folks!

Has anyone had any experience connecting to obs.live with an elgato hd60s from a console? HD game capture recognizes my game capture fine but obs.live cannot find the device.

Use the Twitch Bandwidth Test to find the best Twitch server to stream to. Set Duration to Medium. You can uncheck any regions you're not near.

After the test completes, click the Share Result button to upload a screenshot, which can then be copied and pasted here.

Not sure if this is the right place for this but I'm having trouble being able to get the game audio output as well as my usb microphone audio input from my ps remote play sessions to appear in recordings via OBS.Live simultaneously. If I can get the USB mic to be picked up there is no output audio from the speakers and when I try to establish an Audio Output Capture source (to hopefully connect to the audio source on my computer) it says "Device not selected or available" under the device selection menu beneath the main screen and no selections are at all available to make under preferences for the Audio Output source at all. Any assistance would be appreciated.

Hello! I'm having trouble with the custom chat bot, after connecting the account it doesnt work at all, I've even tried to disconnect it to just use the normal stream elements one but it hasnt helped 😦

dapper iglooBOT

@gusty zephyr ⤵️

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/re4theQ.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

Hey all, so I use restream chat (Strictly to view chat across Twitch, Youtube and sometimes Facebook Gaming as I have my own stream RTMP/RTMPS server), so I got my Restream Chat on OBS here...

The media share volume control for the first video in the queue is always low and you have to either click the mute/unmute button once to return the volume to the correct level OR click the volume fader once.

The good news is that the media share bugs are starting to get fixed....but still needs some work to get it back to where it used to be

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

For Chat bot, Timers, I have a message that contains a web link, but I do not want it to be picked up as one after I Save. Does anyone know if there is a way to make the Messages not convert what may appear as a weblink?

Is this a common issue? I cannot use SE.Pay because setup fails on Firefox and Chrome.

#

this means alerts and other things do not work as well

I need to do a hard reset for my custom bot name since it won't bind properly. Does anyone know how to do it. I can't remember

dapper iglooBOT

@solemn hornet ⤵️

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/re4theQ.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

I have completed that process multiple times. But it won't bind the new name.

  1. Right-click your OBS desktop shortcut (not the OBS.Live shortcut) and navigate to 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 (try 127.0.0.1:40404 if you see issues - https://streamelements.is-serious.business/3EGPQFJ.jpg)
  5. Click on StreamElements - Activity feed - https://streamelements.is-serious.business/2kJYt2b.jpg
  6. Type the following into the console and hit enter: store.customBot.removeCustomBotIntegration()
  7. Try setting the custom bot name, make sure you follow https://strms.net/custombotname
  8. Remove the flag added in step 2 from your shortcut properties

hello!!! I am having the weirdest problem and nobody i know can figure it out...when im in OBS i can't hear the music tracks i have playing in each source. BUT i can see that the sound meter is picking it up AND when i do a test recording and play back the recording i can hear it in the play back. When i'm streaming my followers say they can hear the music but i cannot. i also cannot hear when my sound alerts pop up from soundalerts.com. same as the media sounds i can see obs is picking it up and the icon even pops up on stream but i cant hear it. i think i have tried everything to fix this and im stumped. this started a few days ago at first when i switch from slots last saturday everything was working great and i could hear the songs. I've tried replacing the media source, checking my audio is on my headphones, and even switching the files in the advanced settings to monitor off-monitor muted- ect. nothing seems to be working and its driving me crazy....please halpppp

# tranquil monolith hello!!! I am having the weirdest problem and nobody i know can figure it out......

I was about to post the same thing. I've had chat members spend Bits to jumpscare me and it is playing on the stream, but I am hearing nothing and haven't for a few days and it is annoying them because they are obviously spending money to do it. I have tried changing the monitor to off and then back to monitor and output, but it isn't remedying the problem. It is happening for my mic, shout out clips and sound alerts

Hello, recently i've noticed a few things with the Media Request tool on OBSlive, basically the amount of "skip" votes doesn't seem to matter anymore, it just skips after one person types !skip. the queue will auto play if the media is "showing on stream". when it's not showing on stream and a media ends, the next media ques up but it doesn't "play" it stays there paused until it's manually played or done by command to resume. Also, when skip voting is set for "VIPs" it means only the first skip vote must be done by a VIP but anyone can vote after instead of only VIPs being able to vote. Is there anything I can do to fix any of these for now?

dapper iglooBOT

@faint rapids ⤵️

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

Not quite what I mean. Normally, the bot is selected to the StreamElements section but whenever I want to change it to my own name using the "Change to "TwitchName" The commands no longer work and the test message doesnt appear

Not a custom name, but my own one.

This is still considered a custom name, because it replaces the default StreamElements name

Well i switched from SLOBS to OBS and I am using my pre-existing overlay from Nerd or Die called Glitch. I made a couple of modifications, it's a static image. My current work around is to go full screen and take a screenshot to then add the chat widget in there via overlay editor while being able to see the overlay itself. I was wondering if there's a way to just put that overlay in the editor itself without having to screenshot and lose quality.

From there you can add the chat widget into the overlay editor

I don’t believe so

#

@ashen vapor is that the case?

umbral peak
#

I should probably just get a new overlay just for ease of editing in the overlay editor. Just trying to get used to SE and the Editor. XD

kindred fox
#

I need my lawyer

ashen vapor
#

Your using AOM?

kindred fox
#

One sec

#

@umbral peak

umbral peak
#

AOM?

ashen vapor
#

Advanced overlay maker

kindred fox
#

I think they grabbed glitch from slobs theme picker thingy

#

Which is OG NoD overlay

#

So I’m not sure how that would work to transfer

ashen vapor
#

It won't carry over to SE. As it's apart of SL

umbral peak
#

Okay so it'd be best to just get a new overlay?

kindred fox
#

You could get glitch 2.0 from the website 😉

ashen vapor
#

Yee. We have a black Friday sale going on

kindred fox
#

It’s better than 1.0

umbral peak
#

then that brings me back to the original question. Any way of importing that overlay into the editor so I can add things to it more easily? I can screenshot things if you need a visual explanation as Idk if i'm explaining it right :p

kindred fox
#

If you grab a new one on sale it will import straight in

umbral peak
#

oh from the SE site?

kindred fox
#

You can use one of the SE themed ones or you can grab glitch 2.0 from nerd or die on sale

#

Glitch 2.0 should have a “quick start” file that imports the overlay into your dashboard

umbral peak
#

so it'd just automatically go to the "My Overlays" section of the SE website?

kindred fox
#

Yes

#

It’s super slick

#

I have a couple nerd or die overlays

#

Double click the quick start streamelements file and boom. Done.

umbral peak
#

tysm for the explanation. It was annoying to guess where i should physically place the chat box in the overlay editor for it to show on stream.

kindred fox
#

The nice thing about streamelements overlays is that they’re designed to be added at 1920 x 1080 in obs

#

So they’re always gonna fit the canvas

#

So where you place something in the editor is where it will show in obs

umbral peak
#

I did originally do that with the chatbox but the text was so small and blurry which required me to "blow it up" for it to be visible :p

kindred fox
#

Double-check your browser source resolution is 1920x1080

#

That’s first thing

umbral peak
#

the browser source width and height in OBSLive?

kindred fox
#

Yes

umbral peak
#

when i do that it extends wayyyyyyyyyy off the preview screen on obslive

kindred fox
#

How big is your obs canvas?

umbral peak
#

any way to get the exact numbers or should I just screenshot?

kindred fox
#

set the base canvas resolution to the same resolution as your gaming monitor

umbral peak
#

yeah that's set the same

kindred fox
#

there's a quick video of adding an overlay

umbral peak
#

the red outline is where the "chatbox" overlay is and that's what happens when i set it to 1920x1080

sharp turret
#

Ctrl+F

umbral peak
#

okay well now it fits on the screen but it isn't showing up on obslive, it does work on the overlay editor though. so i'm a tad confused

OBS > Settings > Advanced > Scroll down > Enable or disable Browser Source Hardware Acceleration, depending on its current state > Restart OBS
https://i.imgur.com/ggMe9ZE.png

kindred fox
#

try disabling hardware acceleration

umbral peak
#

didn't work, is there a specific place i need to set the chatbox in the overlay editor for it to show on the stream?

kindred fox
#

put everything into the overlay. all of the widgets exist within the overlay editor itself, so you only need a single browser source inside OBS

umbral peak
#

you know, i didn't think of that. I'm not gonna lie, i feel a bit slow now lol, I was up all night trying to get it to work

kindred fox
#

Streamlabs makes "widgets" for slobs, which are all individual browser sources, which eats CPU

#

streamelements overlays contain all the widgets so you only have a single browser source.

umbral peak
#

yeahhh I'm used to the old ways so I gotta get with StreamElement's ways xD It's easier than SL when you get used to it i'm sure though

kindred fox
#

it definitely is 😉

daring relic
#

is there a list i can show my viewers about what commands they can use?

sharp turret

@daring relic the default !commands command

Hey everybody, I'm new here and need a little help! I'm fairly new to streaming and am having a pretty basic issue that I'm hoping can be solved here. I downloaded an overlay (theme) that has places for new followers, subs, ect. My problem is I can't figure out how to get these to update in realtime during the stream. Do I somehow have to link info from Twitch to the overlay or into StreamElements so the info updates?

Hi! I am having trouble connecting a custom bot name. I have reset the session to be sure, the selected "Set custom bot name", clicked on "Connect custom bot account", then after I sign in and authorize it redirects back to OBS but nothing changes in the obslive window and the dropdown does not show my custom bot's name.

I have also tried switching the setting between saying "Streamelements" and my own name while resetting the session each time and still nothing.

eternal lichen
#

Is this where I'd go to get help with editing a Theme?

quick atlas
eternal lichen
#

So... I've figured out that the pale frames are supposed to be for my webcam outlines, that's fine, I guess. BUT... Since I have a 4:3 webcam, I wanted to repurpose the 16:9 frame to outline my entire screen. I can't resize it that far, apparently?
Secondly, I don't want my chat to be constrained to that purple square proportions. I'd rather it be long, like about 300 x 600, but I can't reshape it? Why can't I CTRL+Drag to disable contraints?

eternal lichen
#

I want to use graphics that were designed for this theme. but in the case of the Chat background, i can't resize it to the shape I want, and I can't even duplicate it and overlap them to feign a longer image because there is a gradient applied to the image. (I tried and it looked.... off, is probably the nicest way I could put it.

#

And then not being able to resize the 16:9 frame to surround my screen, or even just where I will have my game screen, is just frustrating. The theme is SO CLOSE to what i want... but the tools I'm provided to finish it just don't want to work for me. >.<

quick atlas
#

Some of the parts here can likely be recreated to your liking, for example the chat background is likely just a flat image that can be made to your specifications and uploaded. Are there no adjustment options for it at all?

eternal lichen
#

I can drag it to resize it, but the proportions are contrained to I can't make it a different shape.
There also appears to be some transparency to the chat background, just slightly, enough to be noticed, but I don't know how much % transparency it was designed with. So trying to recreate it with my own attempt is iffy at best. Just another reason I want to use a graphic that is designed for this theme.

can anyone help me? my obs keeps disconnecting and reconnecting when I'm trying to stream. normally i watch stream also on my phone to view my stream to make sure no lags and to make sure my screen is showing good. but now its saying im live in obs but not on twitch. not even showing my game play. please help

eternal lichen
#

I kinda figured that out, but can't for the life of me understand WHY? I mean why can't I repurpose an asset to something else in a different size/configuration if I happen to want something that's not completely pre-packaged? I was always of the frame of mind that these themes should be an easy to use way to drop them in your stream and use as is... OR if you are so inclined, modify them as you see fit to make them more personalized for your own use. Makes no sense.

#

maybe if i reset my internet? i havent tried that yet. but i reset my laptop and xbox

eternal lichen
#

Router reset might help. Cable Modem too. But again, if it's Comcast, they just happen to be terribad.

#

Hit up a Broadbad test website to see what your bandwidth is like, currently. I'm assuming you've streamed before and had no issues with your current setup? There are settings somewhere that have to do with which streaming service server you are pointing at. Make sure you are going to the closest to your location. Occasionally, you may have to swap to the next closest. I'm in Tacoma, so i stream to the Twitch Seattle server, but sometimes need to go to the Portland server depending on network traffic.

rugged quail
#

ok thank you! i will do that now

#

i never done this before what should it be at?

eternal lichen
#

Depends on what your internet type is like. Cable should be like 75Mb/s or more upload, and probably 10 Mb/s or a little higher, depending on the service you are buying.

#

If you have DSL, then it will be significantly slower than that. Can still get you ok service, but probably not the best for streaming.

eternal lichen
#

I just looked up Suddenlink and you should be good, even if you are monitoring on the same network.

#

Do you know how to get to your output settings? Settings --> Output --> then look for Video Bitrate. I don't know the ideal settings table, but you should be able to get by with 2500-3000 Kbps. Hardware Encoder NVENC should be good as well, depending on your laptop specs. Also working from an SSD is in your best interests.

rugged quail
#

Yeah I never had a problem until now): I'll look into all that

#

How would I get this working on Linux? is there not a feature for that yet?

eternal lichen
#

Probably need to use a Windows Emulator like Wine.

rugged quail
#

I don't think it would work that well with the linux-native version of OBS

eternal lichen
#

That... might cause some issues then! yeah!

rugged quail
#

is there a way I can compile it, like with AUR packages?

eternal lichen
#

Ok... so I've FINALLY created my own frame.... how do i import it to this theme?

rugged quail
#

I don't ever mess with the settings 😅

eternal lichen
#

Are you recording as you stream?

manic star
#

anyone know how to fix media request stopping after a song plays even though u have it linked to a playlist

eternal lichen
#

Found it! This silly little Blue dot with a + symbol on it will let me add my own frame into the theme. OBSERVATION: Having this disconnected from the given UI with a completely different look and in the middle of the screen I'm editing gets it lost in clutter and I didn't even register it was there.

#

As I'm editing things, and moving them around in the layers, I'm looking to Add a new layer... but the control doesn't exist as part of the sidebar controls. As you can see from this image, the "Add" button is kinda lost in the screen. I think it would be advantageous to place this control at the top of the sidebar where I'm working with the controls. Just a suggestion, and probably in the wrong channel. >.>

Hopefully I'm not misunderstanding how the overlays work, I'm using OBS Studio and StreamElements plugins/widgets, but what are the advantages to having my art assets/themed overlay uploaded to StreamElements' overlays versus imported into OBS Studio itself? Is it more lightweight if I load the images through the StreamElements' overlay? Or would it be smarter to have my high resolution art assets baked into my stream in OBS Studio itself and only have widgets pulled in through the plugin on top of it?

kindred fox
#

But you then have to weigh the performance hit (depending on your rig)

rugged quail
sudden lynx
#

Thank you so much! It sounds like it'd be better to be pulled in through the web tbh with the way you're explaining it - I'll just have to make sure the quality is preserved enough in a test. My overlay in Streamlabs was always VERY heavy on my PC, high resolution/file size, so it sounds like using StreamElement's overlay is strategic in that respect. I'll run tests!

kindred fox
# rugged quail 1920x1080

Ok. Your bitrate is way too low for 1920x1080. To stream to twitch at that resolution you need 5000-6000 bitrate. I’d recommend testing with the following settings:
Base canvas: 1920x1080
Output scaled: 1280x720
bitrate: 3500

Also do you have a dedicated graphics card or are you on a laptop?

(FIXED, SEE EDIT)

Hey y'all I'm trying to connect my YT to OBS.live and the local login isn't working. The steps I take are as follows:

  1. I open OBS Studio
  2. I click the "Stream Elements" button at the top and select "Login"
  3. I select "YouTube" and browser window opens automatically, taking me to a Google Account login page
  4. I select the account I want to connect
  5. A new page loads, asking me "Would you like to give OBS.Live access to your channel "(my channel)"?" with the buttons "Cancel" and "Authenticate"
  6. I select "Authenticate", and a new page loads (screenshot attached), indicating that the connection failed

I have tried multiple browsers (Chrome and Edge), my VPN is turned off, and the port specified in step 6 changes every time I attempt to login. I thought about trying port forwarding but since the port changes on every attempt I can't know which one to forward. Is there anyhting I'm doing wrong or should change?

Pls help!!! TIA 🙂

EDIT: I am not sure exactly what the problem was, but I logged in to Twitch instead, logged out, then was successful in logging in to YouTube. If anyone knows why I had this issue that would be great lol but thank you all anyway!!!

@ripe flint ⤵️

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.

Will OBS.live allow us to use custom bot names for YouTube in the future?

My suggestion would be to reinstall

lunar harbor
#

reinstall obs.live or obs in general

kindred fox

Yes

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

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/re4theQ.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

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

Good, I'm glad we figured it out. 😀

Is there anyway to show only one recent donator?

No errors it stays I am streaming @nova scaffold I just thought no one like me to come into my stream the last two days

#

Nm it seems it decided to start working again after about three restarts of the pc.

#

I did that also that could of been the fix

nova scaffold
#

Yeah most likely a connection issue to a specific server.

astral heart
#

I tried so many times yesterday doing different fixes but I guess letting the pc sleep last night fixed it

astral heart
#

@nova scaffold

#

It’s doing it again. Won’t go live but says I’m streaming

nova scaffold
#

You have network issues somewhere.

#

If changing the Twitch ingest server does not help - please talk to your ISP.

astral heart
#

@nova scaffold I’ll check that out

#

@nova scaffold wonder if I should go live then launch my game

#

But thanks for the help

I set up StreamElements as a " Mainly YouTube" Account, and I restream to facebook, however I get more interaction in the chat from facebook, but I cannot see the comments in OBS, I want to login in SE in OBS thru Facebook, but after the login screen, it just has a white window, as if its loading, but it never loads... I have restarted OBS, I have restarted my computer, nothing so far, any ideas on how I can log into SE thru FB in OBS?

Hi, not sure if this is just a me issue or not but for some reason I can no longer use the Streamelements bot under my name in chat? I can get it to work as just "Streamelements", but when choosing my channel name it doesn't work (I use this for emotes, it seemed to work a week or so ago but doesn't now)

Hello if I use the overlay of stream elements in OBS and set the display as text of Last Follower and Last Subscriber so that the text moves from left to right, this is only possible in OBS as soon as I start the game the text is frozen

Hello! Is there a way to have my custom bot name (replaces StreamElements bot name in OBS.Live) continue after closing OBS? I have automated messages for follows, socials, etc. that are triggered off stream when OBS is closed and the generic StreamElements name is used if OBS/OBS.Live is closed. Forgive me if this is in the wrong channel or has been answered before. Thanks!
