hmm, sorry havent had to deal with this since a couple years ago so trying to do it while multitasking
it's fine I just wish there was someone here that knew what this is being caused by
like you've been helpful obviously
just it seems like no one I ask knows at all what is going on
it might be failing due to media that is streamlabs copyrighted or such
and I've been at this for hours
and folks in my discord are pretty much screeching at me to swap out of streamlabs when it's the only thing I really understand and all I'm doing is gaining the most massive headache ever in a form of basically peer pressure so I just wish this would be done and over with T .T
so apologize if it seems I'm overly frustrated. T .T
yeah fortunately this is the only thing from streamelements that will give a headache lmao
let me try some things on my end to see what might be causing,
ok, make sure you are logged in and authorized on the chrome browser for streamlabs and streamelements and try again 😄
yeah I got it but now it's so jankly put together in OBS I'm just like mentally dying at the thought of trying to fix it lol at least the chrome thing worked ; u ;
honestly once everything is fixed, streamelements is 10x better
this is coming from a previous streamlabs helper lmao
yeah, it does that lmao
plus I always prefer obs in the long run vs the dumbed down version since you can expand and ultimately do more in the future
I am big dumb puggo brain so ; u ; unfortunately it takes so much more for me to learn things
Hello! I need assistance to why I cannot import my Twitch overlays to Youtube through Stream Elements. They are linked but doesnt give me a option! Thanks!
Hi guys, im unable to get into the SE.Sponsorship area of the site. Continuous loading screen. It does this for me also when uploading a merch item
ive tried other browsers and still have the issue
any advice

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.
@magic jetty ⤵️
Please logout of StreamElements at https://streamelements.com/logout and then login again to your account (Twitch/YouTube/Facebook).
How do i fix that some of my commands like '!twitter' does not work? all the rest of my commands work fine but there are 3 what are not working atm
Hey there, you'll want to make sure those commands have been switched to "enabled" under the custom commands so that they are able to work when using those commands in stream.
Hey there ! They are enabled. I disabled them when i tried all my commands so i know wich ones are not working (otherwise i would forget).
We are currently seeing them as disabled, so you'll want to re-enable them, and then if they still aren't working, please provide a clip of the commands not working while your stream is live and we can investigate further for you.
Okey, can this stream also be unlisted? I am unsure if streamelements bot comes into a unlisted stream
the bot will not join an unlisted, non-public stream.
Oh. I will do this tomorow then. Since i willl have to switch accounts etc (when i type the command in chat on my livestream account it works, other account / other viewers it does not work). But i will provide a link tomorow. Do i post the link here?
I would recommend sending any clip you get for this issue to support@streamelements.com so we can investigate it for you via a support ticket.
Alright perfect, im off to bed now since its 3:30 am. I will do it tomorow 🙂
my streamelements chat bot message is not deleted:( still commands trigger it 😦 I deactiveted from everywhere
Pls help me
My custom bot name still isnt working for se live on mac
I have the same problem. Please any solution?
hello, is there any linux release?
uh just checked the channel history so there isn't any.
is the plugin open source?
doesn't seems to be
Alright i sended the livestream to that email adress.
Thank you for the help !
Ok looks like something for sure is going with SE Live when you choose your channel as the custom name, I had to switch the custom bot to a different user to get it to work... the issue only happens if you set your channel to the custom bot name. If you set it to another user or SE it works fine
Hey guys, I'm trying to add the chatbox overlay to my stream but for some reason when I try and test it, nothing comes up in OBS. I did it both offline and online but still, cannot make it come up. Anyone know what's the issue here?
Not sure if this is the right channel, but I'm attempting to customize the Connection Animated Overlay and I don't use Instagram and would like to change the icon to Facebook but I am wondering where I can find the icon so that it matches the rest of the overlay's theme.
Not sure this is the right place to ask but..is the streamelements store ever getting the ability to organize your store? like you can move things around and put it in order but the second you go to the store or refresh its in a completely random order
my store page where i can edit and move V.S my live page, items never match up where i want them to go
Hey everyone! Please be careful when you're downloading OBS - there are fake versions being linked in Google Ads that contain malware. The OBS team never runs Google Ads so never click any ads claiming to be OBS - only download from our official site, obsproject.com, or the Steam Store.
⚠️ SCAM ALERT! ⚠️ There are ads on Google that link to a fake version of OBS with malware. Only download OBS from our official site, https://t.co/Z9F2dM5HFM, and never click any ads claiming to be OBS.
how to add an image to se live ?
hello everyone, does anyone know how to change my encoder preset when using nvenc so i dont fry my computer been getting encoder overload everytime i tab out of my game while streaming only happens with cod vanguard or warzone. But my stream doesnt end up lagging nor am i experiencing any harsh performance issues where i cant play the game.
[9:55 PM]
and if i use x264 i end up with no encoder overload issues coming out which generally makes no sense what so ever
Is raid campagne still working?
I have a question about a overlay widget. Need some support with that. Where can i ask my question?

I can't change the chatbot name anymore. The "menu" option under the activity feed is no longer there.
@stark perch ⤵️
If your commands recently stopped working and you're using SE.Live and a custom bot name do the following:
- In SE.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
The menu button on the activity feed isn't there anymore
@stark perch ⤵️
StreamElements menu, on top of OBS > Logout > Login
so, I keep logging into my bot account and its not taking it after authorization for my custom name anymore. and secondly media autoplay seems to be broken
@spiral elk ⤵️
If you are not seeing the OBS Twitch integrations and have SE.Live installed, please follow these steps:
- Make sure you are on the latest and greatest version of SE.Live
- Exit OBS (make sure OBS is not running)
- Delete
%appdata%\obs-studio\plugin_config\obs-browser\obs_profile_cookies - Start SE.Live
- Settings > Stream > Disconnect > Connect
Nevermind...still not working. Updated, disconnected then reconnected. I'm guessing the chatbot name can't be changed if it's YouTube?
still cant change my bot name back to it's previous custom name
although the autoplay worked for two songs and stopped again
@spiral elk ⤵️
If your commands recently stopped working and you're using SE.Live and a custom bot name do the following:
- In SE.Live, click on the hamburger menu (three stripes) at the top left of your activity feed

@stark perch ⤴️
I’m on my activity feed and the “hamburger” icon is not there 🤓
thats the issue I have done that about 10 times and it doesnt change after authorizing https://gyazo.com/c047bd52e05a1892dbad12b1e9b2a990
and I can see that its going through because it shows under the bot's connections
You would need to talk to the overlay creator, or get a full set of icons made.
@dawn root How would I find out who that is?
The overlay is from the gallery on the streamelements website
https://www.dropbox.com/sh/hwbgtyxcmz81y6j/AADiPXjOyaXZ5J6-bKF71uzWa?dl=0 This link is provided as part of one of the overlays
Ah, thank you very much
hello there! i was trying out a new overlay , but my alert box keeps turning into a chatbox with the copied link - am i doing it wrong someway
did you copy and paste the reference of the chatbox? it will make it so it will always be the chatboxes link, besides that make sure the url reflects the alert box
the reference ?
im pretty new to this , what am i supposed to do? qwq ;;
Hello! I hope everyone is doing dandy. I go by Krims but my name is Nic, pleasure to meet you all. I have a question. I was streaming my regular schedule time tonight and for about 2 hours everything was fine. Then stream seized and I have not been able to begin stream since this happened. The square dictating kb/s stayed red and mostly at 0. Internet did not go out and frames weren't dropping. OBS just couldn't send my stream to Twitch. Any ideas what might be the culprit?
Additionally, I have attempted restarting OBS and restarting my PC.
hola
how do you change what the bot says when you redeem a sound alert? i've literally looked everywhere & it says "you successfully redeemed yippee for 100 points. elementsOkay" but i'm using a custom bot so "elementsokay" isnt even an emote 
I am using a widget called video on command, I want everyone to use it. but i only can chose Streamer Mod and VIP. is there a possibility for this?
my sound alerts dont work on my OBS but work when testing on the site
@quartz token ⤵️
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
i dont have a custom setup for only alerts, they usually just came through
doesnt work either way, my alerts are muted during the streams but fine on the website..
didn't get a reply before but is store customization coming any time soon? like the ability to actually organize it?
i just set up a Total Follower Counter but it shows a wrong number. Why is that and how do i fix it?
@full thunder Not sure if you are catching the multiple reports that the Custom Bot will not let you choose your own channel name
@drifting meadow ⤵️

- 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
It does not work @dapper igloo currently that is what I am trying to advise there are multiple reports that it is not working and I have provided screenshots on what is happening

@dapper igloo I need help with SEPAY - I have nearly £200 available to withdraw - however when I go to withdraw it says 'withdraw failed, (if this continues happening, please contact our support)' click help and it goes to an error page? Any suggestions as I would like to withdraw this money asap - TIA
Just to add - the green help button on homepage is unresponsive too

@dapper igloo I am receiving a 404 Error code when looking at my SE Chat stats. Can you assist me?
The bot really can't do much on its own.

Is SE.live not supported on Win 11 yet? The install appeared fine but it can't find the obs64.exe. Attempting to uninstall (so I can try a reinstall) silently errors out.
Fixed.
It should be compatible.
.
Ok tried all of that, the one last step I had to do as a work around was to connect the custom bot account to my channel, so now it is listed twice but it is posting as the channel now
I get this error when trying to install se live and I noticed I have a more current version of obs 27.2.4
Heya. I'm new to StreamElements and have recently tried the Credit Roll widget. It works well but for one thing. The font size of Users seems to be locked in place at a tiny font size despite having an input for the font size to change that field. As it is, I can't read the user names because they are so small. Has anyone else experienced this? Is there a way I can change the font size? I've included a screen cap for reference.
craziest thing happened last night - had a bunch of cheers (yay) .. and then, an hour later, when i changed scenes in OBS, ALLL the cheers started to REPLAY - if that scene had TTS on, - yeah .. ALL the TTSs replayed .. I actually had to log into streamelements . com and go to my scene and turn off that alert's sound to shut it up. ANY IDEA WHY my alerts would all retrigger? an hour later even?? was twitch being wakky? or is there something wakkier in my OBS?
**this happened in multiple scenes even
hey SE team. I finally found time to try this way but it still doesn't work for me.
➡️ I authorized custom name option
➡️ already restarted OBS
➡️ removed authorization from twitch account and reconnected
➡️ reloaded the panel on top left
it still shows it to me like this. what else can i try?
Struggling to get SE live to recognize 2 Webcam sources at once. I can have both plugged in and set up, but I have to deactivate one within SE live for the other to work. Any tips?

Hey. So, for the last week or 2, at least once a day when I open OBS Studio with SE.Live installed I get this error, and I have do disconnect and reconnect my Twitch account. I tried asking in the OBS server, but they said they couldn't help, beyond telling me to uninstall SE.Live and use OBS without it. They told me to try asking for help here. Is there anything that can be done to solve the issue? I've got both OBS and SE.Live fully updated and the issue wasn't happening a month ago. It just started about a week or 2 ago. I think that's when I connected an account for my custom bot name.
Somewhere, I saw a word puzzle game chatbot module in Streamelements. Is it a feature that's only in the beta version?
If it's not in the gallery, I would check the widget share here in the discord
This is an issue with OBS connecting to Twitch, not exactly SE. I would try disconnecting OBS from Twitch in the stream settings, then check your server settings to see if they are the best for your setup
I don't think it's because of OBS. I was streaming with no issues whatsoever until just recently. I think it started around the time I connected a custom bot account to my SE.Live.
Have you tried disabling the custom name bot? Or is that still running?
I had switched the name back to StreamElements because the bot was showing up weird/wrong in my chat. I disconnected it from my account and I'll open OBS again later tonight or early tomorrow to see if it works correctly.
Got it! Feel free to come back when you do and we can try some things if it's still acting up.
Alright. By any chance, do you know what could be causing the custom bot to show up incorrectly in the chat?
How was it showing up weird/wrong? Not the right name?
In the chat dock, it would show up with the name a random color, instead of the color that I had it set to in the account settings, and the color would randomize each time I refreshed the dock. And in the chatbox on my overlay, the entire test message, name and all, showed pink even though no other messages did.
We would probably have to see it in action to figure out what's going on there
That'll probably have to wait until Sunday since I've already got that account disconnected from SE
Hey everyone, Asking here because google keeps just coming back with "How to setup" videos and pages.
I'm trying to go live with twitch for a test session but every time I hit the start streaming button it defaults to trying to stream to youtube?, Is there a setting i'm missing outside of "Settings > Stream > Service > twitch"?
Are you signed in with your Twitch account?
I'll double check, but I swear if thats the issue.... I wont be happy with myself
was that the issue?
Yeah.... It was the issue... I had forgotten to log out of YT and log in with Twitch
thanks @south spoke
easy mistake to make tbh
Sometimes it's the little things
You should be able to set up separate profiles in OBS for streaming to different platforms
Safe to assume the answer to my question doesn't exist after asking for 4 days straight?
Try asking in #helpdesk-merch Better chance of getting an answer on merch related questions there. Especially since the last time you actually posted it was over 48 hours ago.
But it has nothing to do with merch
Not the merch store
Redemption store
Or do they group them?
I also asked yesterday
Well..technically
I thought you were asking about merch store.
I didn't even know streamelements had a merch store till you just said it
You can't move the items in the Stream Store.
But
Check out the StreamElements ideas board: https://strms.net/ideas. You'll be able to add ideas, upvote ideas you agree with and track their progress with email notifications. Adding and upvoting ideas also helps the staff know which ideas should be prioritized so please take some time to upvote.
Well you kinda can just not order them
If i move them then go to the store they all get randomly shuffled
But i did upvote the post from a few years back about it
So, I opened OBS with the custom bot account disconnected from my StreamElements and got the same error again. I'm out of ideas for what could be causing it.
Hello, could I please have custom bot name enable for ground control, here is my id 59467b31387459128fd146c5 Thank you.
thanks this helped! I kiss your foreheads 
Don't really know if anyone can help me with this, but last night into this morning, I've been getting disconnected from twitch servers after like 3-5 minutes of going live via SE OBS. Ive tried changing servers, restarting internet, reauthenticating stream key, lowering bitrate, etc. Anyone have a solution/potential fix?
hi i just added se,live to obs studio i'm not getting live activity in activity feed did i miss doing something in setting it up
Hello, I'm noticing that my obs se live is using a lot of browser-page.exe programs in task manager. Most of them are harmless, but a few are sucking resources. I've already tried disabling overlay browser sources when they are not visible, but it still has upward of 15 or 16 processes running at idle with a few of them taking up to 5 percent cpu usage. Is there a way to find out what's using all the resources and end those tasks or are there other processes besides browser sources I should be looking for?
tried adding bot to youtube no change still no live feed so it's limiting me to no chat overlay which is the reason i added se.live ty for any help on this
Hello am I posting in the right place to get custom bot name enable for ground control? just want to make sure thanks 🙂
Is there a way to make it so when people comment during my stream, that it can appear on my screen on my PC? Instead of having to look at my second screen, can comments pop up on my main game screen...
Can the StreamElements chatbot be used in OBS without SE.Live installed? Or does it require SE.Live to be installed to communicate with the chat/stream?
i am using the widget video on command and is it possible to let every follower use it?
so if a follower types "!video 1" that the video/clip will pop up?
Hello everyone. I have an issue with my custom bot. Of some reason it is not working anymore, not even the broadcaster version. I only can use StreamElements. Does anyone know where the problem could come from?
I need to ask those who use OBS/SE.Live on Windows 11. Did any of you had issues where your Browser Sources did not show when Hardware Acceleration is enabled?
Negative
I disabled Hardware Acceleration and my overlays now show
any way to change the font the stream credits widget uses to a local font? i see there's a html and css editor, but i don't know if you're able to link to local path/exactly how to do so
how do you sign-out of the se activity feed browser dock?
Streamelements menu > log out
can you do this on standalone obs too? or only selive?
because it lets me sign in, just not sign out on obs
create a custom browser dock to streamelements.com and sign out from there, it'll sign you out from every other docks too
tysm! it worked
hm
editing a custom widget's html, css, js, and json isn't doing anything?
the field on the left stays the default custom widget one
Anyone know why on streamelements when I'm adding my new alert animations in, like followers etc. My Video saves and works for some, but the new sub one/cheer its not working. I've deleted the old video, relogged, changed the video to what I want, and it shows that on the left side, but when I emulate it, it shows my old one.
Like i want the one on the left to show and emulate, but its still doing my old one. https://gyazo.com/2a6b793b2c245030479e1ec0940e192e
Even started a completely new alert, and When I emulate it, it still does not change.
hi please help!, my stream activity live chat screen is blank yet i see chat active in youtube n chat overlay created in streamelemental why is nothing showing on my live feed when i've streamed or i'm streaming,. thanks .
how can i import scenes, overlays and personal alerts on stream elements? impossible to do anything
Did you adjust the variants as well? Be sure to double check Alertbox > Alert (Cheer, Tip, Sub, ETC) > Variation Settings (at the bottom)
Was the stream public?
https://streamelements.com/dashboard/account/import <- you can use our tools to transfer here
thank you so much , i try it
how do i get rid of improvements are on the way alert in streamelementse.live?
@heavy maple I’ve changed the ticked/unticked the certain ones. The only only that’s not working for me is the subscription/cheer one.
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.
5f89ee3dd269c2c210694f5e @heavy maple
You haven't changed the variants. They're still the default alert
Click the gear then this will pop up
sorry i missed your reply yes the stream was public
Ahhhhh, so I'll set all of those ones to the same video/alert. And what about the cheer one? Thank you very much btw @heavy maple
Same thing you're doing for the Sub, do for the cheer
Are there other Layers in OBS above the chat layer? if so, it can block the Overlay from displaying
they're default
i have youtube chat coming in since i set it to public but still no live feed in obs or dash
i also have chat coming overlay chat i created coming in that shows live in obs n overlay editor
how do I get rid of that improvement alert?
Check the #270206314561404928 channel for a fix
Okay, is your issue that the overlay not working or that OBS isn't showing chat?
i don't understand why live feed isn't showing activity in dash steam elements
I see it not sure how to do it
Are you referring to chat not showing up here?
Or here?
okay it's just not showing anywhere either in my streamelement dashboard when i log in or in the chat boxes in obs
the live feed that is
or live activity
The Chat Dock, The First screenshot i posted?
where do i go to fix it where do i refresh the cache?
You can refresh your cache in your browser source properties (right click > refresh cache!).
ok il try that
That wasn't for you
You need to do this
StreamElements menu, on top of OBS > Logout > Login
ok log out log in shows no live activity fee history
should i start a live stream test
cant figure it out not entirely a computer geek
It won't show chats from past streams, only when you're live
kinda vague instructions
Find the browser source, Right click it, Properties, Refresh Cache (found at the bottom of the list)
ok loged out of dash n obs i'll try live stream, test n report back
now how do i find the browser source
Under Sources. Whatever you added to have your overlays from StreamElements
In the screenshot you provided it's labeled "BRB"
alright now am i doing this in elements or my google browser
In OBS
live active still not active in showing youtube chat even tho i get chat in overlays boxes
Please try the following steps:
- Make sure you are on the latest and greatest version of SE.Live
- Exit OBS (make sure OBS is not running)
- Delete
%appdata%\obs-studio\plugin_config\obs-browser\obs_profile_cookies - Start SE.Live
- Settings > Stream > Disconnect > Connect
ok thank you for your help il report back with results asap
❤️ thank you very much
Can I use the same scenes with the same StreamElements overlays for YouTube that I'm already using for Twitch? Or do I have to make new overlays to use for YouTube?
You can Merge your accounts so you can transfer the overlays over: https://streamelements.com/dashboard/account/channels
Ah ok. Because when I connected my YouTube account for streaming in OBS, SE.Live was still connected to my Twitch login for that. I haven't logged into StreamElements with YouTube yet.
wierd i dont see obs-studio in APPDATA folder
So, I recently changed my account email for my Twitch account, but it's not reflecting in my StreamElements dashboard. If I log out and log back in, will it view it as a different account?
is this the appdata folder in user folder?
You should be able to just copy and past that into your file explorer address bar and it should find it.
If not, then please try the following:
Download the OBS installer from their website: https://obsproject.com
Download the SE.Live installer: https://streamelements.com/selive
Install OBS without letting it run after completion.
Install SE.Live and run after finishing (No need to check the OBS option).
Disconnect and reconnect your account in OBS Settings > Stream.
If you Logout and log back in, it should update
Thanks. I also tried your suggestion for the other person for deleting the cookies folder to see if it can fix my failed to load problem.
should i unistall these first?
the delete temp file didn't fix it
I've got my YouTube account connected to my StreamElements account. Is there a way to have SE.Live show the Activity Feed for YouTube in OBS? Or does YouTube not have one?
You'll need to log out. StreamElements menu, on top of OBS > Logout > Login
Yes, uninstall, but when prompted to delete your scenes and personal settings, make sure it is unchecked. We can't recover them if they're deleted
ok ty
That honestly didn't do what I needed. I want to see my Twitch Activity Feed in my Twitch OBS profile and my YouTube activity feed in my YouTube OBS profile. logging out logged me out on both profiles
so my activity feed alerts not working for me its not working for facebook for me
Is it possible to have SE.Live Activity Tracker signed into separate accounts on different OBS profiles? I've got it signed in to my Twitch account, and I've linked my YouTube account to my StreamElements account and set up a separate profile for YouTube in OBS, but I can't switch the dock to display my YouTube activity.
So, I was able to connect my YouTube Activity Feed through SE.Live by logging out and logging in using my YouTube account. But that removed the Twitch Activity Feed. Is there any way to have them both available on separate OBS Profiles at the same time so I don't have to switch back and forth?
For anyone interested. My solution was to use Revo Uninstaller to remove the registry keys & files so I could reinstall. I waited a few days so the installer could be patched if it needed it. Works fine now.
Hello everyone. I have an issue with my custom bot. Of some reason it is not working anymore, not even the broadcaster version. I only can use StreamElements. Does anyone know where the problem could come from?
Maybe I missed an answer to this 2 days ago, but I still have the problem
someone can help with this?

- Right-click your OBS desktop shortcut (not the SE.Live shortcut) and navigate to 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)
https://streamelements.is-serious.business/6ihr2EL.jpg - Open OBS (or restart if it was open)
- Open your web browser and type in:

- Remove the flag added in step 2 from your shortcut properties
Hello, could someone help me with enabling custom bot name for ground control on my account please here is my id 59467b31387459128fd146c5 Thank you.
I tried this before. did not work
i removed the twitch activity feed and added a custom source with the feed, this temporarily solved it, but i always need to open the task manager and end the processes that are with high consumption
@dapper igloo
I'm having some issues with my custom bot. Mostly just the colors being weird. The color of the name changes randomly whenever I open OBS or refresh the chat dock, and the entire test message shows up as pink in the chatbox on the overlay, regardless of the color I have set for the account or the color the bot's name appears as in the chat dock.
I have recently been using SELive but I keep reaching a point during my stream that the CPU spikes and the stream freezes or even crashes. I used to have too many sources loaded so I have since gone in to change every one that has the option to "inactive when not in use" (though not all offer this) and it since has helped lessen the issues but my CPU still runs at a minimum of 30% up to 50% (and spikes to 100% rarely) or more during a stream when before I switched to SELive I would run around 13% on average and almost always under 20%. This is actually causing my streams to crash between 1-5 times in a 3 hour stream and is causing me to rethink SELive as a valid software choice. I would be grateful for any advice. Please ping me with any replies so I don't lose any in this chat channel. I have also reported this issue via the help reporting and included my logs, etc. there. Thank you.
Can I export my overlays from my StreamElements account logged in with Twitch so I can import them to my StreamElements account logged in with YouTube? Or would I need to remake them from scratch for my YouTube connected account?
I try with your link , but streamelement dont want load my file ...
To add to the above post (2 posts up) I have tried a super light weight game and streamed and it turned into a slide show. I turned everything off in all the other scenes and sources and it seemed to help a bit and it still happened with the spikes and crashed the stream out.
I had to switch back to slobs to finish the stream. Ugh. Pls. Halp.
Is there a period where is normally happens (alert is triggered, source is called upon)? It may be worthwile to run a log from one of those streams in the OBS Analyzer
You can duplicate overlays from one platform to another so long as they are under the same SE account
Ok. I'll have to take a look at that later.. Thanks
Greetings. I have been redirected to verify a potential issue that may have occurred with OBS. Seemingly my Virtual Camera option has disappeared. I would like to verify if anyone encountered this and if there could be a fix.
I don't think that's a StreamElements issue. I believe that would be OBS.
I doubt that SE.Live would be the cause of that
Try uninstalling se.live and test with obs studio. If it works without SE.Live then it is an SE.Live issue
Anyone else having this issue? I've tried numerous things to resolve this but every time I launch OBS it does the little coloured loading circle thing on this dock then goes to this 🤷🏻♂️
.... Turns out the Login Session Had Expired, would've been nice if there was some kind of notice on that dock given it's the only one from SE that I use (and the expired notification only seems to exist on the activities dock), however it's sorted 😂🤦🏻♂️
Hi, I'm having issues where my se.live doesn't detect my League game?
Is it an internal issue or an existing bug?
Hi! Which capture are you using? Can you send us a screenshot with the available options?
Is there a way I can get my stream store sounds to show up on the screen (like items do) without also marking them as stream perks?
Hey, there! To capture LoL, I would always need to use Display Capture, because under Window Capture, the game doesn't show up in the list, which is unfortunate.
This one is for Champion Select, which is available to be streamed..
And this is basically for the Display Capture, where when LoL in-game goes full screen it will display the game as it is.
But it also raises some issues, where there were a few times where I accidentally doxed myself on live stream.
Thank you. I took your advice and used the Analyzer. It was helpful but not as specific as one might hope. I found that I was running my scenes and sources wrong (had a source in every scene for game instead of scenes that have one source and it's referenced by a Sourced Scene instead).
Issues I still can't resolve and need help:
- Not Admin (I already have right clicked and run this as admin but that doesn't change anything in the analyzer results) - does this one even matter?
- Rendering Lag. - I have framerate limited to 60FPS on a pretty decent system. I don't see a place to enable/disable vsync in OBS/SELive either.
My StreamElements Overlays aren't being displayed after adding them into OBS?? I create the scene, add browser source, copy/paste the link and it's just blank. Any ideas?
Have you tried different links to check whether it is the same outcome for each and every single link? It could be your internet, as well..
HI Ana, thank you. Yes I have tried different stream elements overlays//links
Fixed by Disabling hardware acceleration under Advanced Settings > Sources
That's good to hear, glad that you managed to work the issue out!
Just so it doesn't get lost, can someone help me with this?
Hi, this window won't disappear upon launch.. :(
After clicking either it keeps on staying on the screen.
😭
SE obs only works on 32bit?
For some reason when I edit the text under the socials to say "instagram" to my actual instagram/twitter it doesn't save. Is there any reason/way to fix this?
@jagged lion ⤵️
To edit the text of a widget, click on it and select Settings at the bottom left.
Thank you!
My display screen when I live stream is stretch out how do I fix that
Can I still use the nightbot you can make on twitch an the alerts through twitch even though I am using obs studio?
im having issues with my timers and my commands not working i have done everything from parting streamelements from my channel and rejoining, making sure my timers and commands are on and i have had no luck in getting my commands to work. they have worked for over a year and they just upped and stopped working.
Yes
Are they ON?
For some reason SE.Overlay is causing all my games to lag.
I've noticed this happened to day and I already had to stop stream twice. It's pretty embarassing

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.

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

Hello I have a problem when I'm streaming, for some reason, the log gets filled up extremely fast, taking up a lot of my memory and when I check it out, it's mainly spammed with these lines:

Make sure to :ballot_box_with_check: “Shutdown source when not visible” for all browser sources (all OBS scenes). If using studio mode, uncheck “Swap Preview/Output Scenes After Transitioning.” Also, keep in mind that sound can play from any overlay loaded in the browser (editor or launched). https://i.imgur.com/6bWXxjR.png https://i.imgur.com/yY0wcFl.png
Try both of these set ups
It took some time but it worked! It wasn't working at first when I first turned Hardware Accel off but once I docked the SE.Live chat in my OBS, it began working fine, ty!
My activity feed isn't showing up, any possible fix for this? Thanks in advance 🙂

Did that at first, no luck.
It shows and immediately turns to black as shown above, even if i click refresh on top of that, it shows in a blink and disappears.
If I have it set as a Stream Perk, the Alert Asset appears on my overlay and in . If I have it set as a Sound Effect, it does not. I would like the asset to show up on my overlay without having to set it as a Stream Perk (since it's not one). Is that possible?

Hey! I have a question. About MacOS. I have OBS studio, but now I get SE Live. It’s seem like a new app, it’s not inside the OBS app. Then, there is a plug-in to the original OBS (in the same app) or it’s a different new app and I could delete the original OBS because it’s working separately? I was looking for on Internet, but everybody talks about the old OBS Live. Then, maybe now it’s different. Thank you so much.

Hey yall, i have another question! i made my overlay in selive, but the notification animation isnt working. maybe you can point me in the right dirrection? The problem was i banned se on twitch accidentally, problem solved
having issues with SE chat not working, how do i logout and delete cache ??
got it nvm
Hi, I'm having issues just installing SE.Live. Everytime I start OBS Studio or SE live it asks to update and is stuck in a loop apparently.
Anyone can help?
for more context, here the message I get everytime I start SE.Live.
Okay after deleting and reanstalling everythin obs and SE.Live related it seems to work now
i just install SE.Live how can't do connect with the button not work
and just open obs i have this
I am not sure if this is the right place to suggest the fix some bugs - if it is not, please let me know
What is the problem I face?
The problem is the following:
- after I finish the stream and click "stop streaming" (I am recording the streams)... there is the problem of freezing the program and after a few seconds there is windows "close the program" (or send the info to the author/producer) pop-up
- the bug is ONLY after some of the recent updates: I have not had it (I did not face it) a few months ago (like 6-7 months ago)
It would be great to investigate the issue as probably it may be not the only problem of mine (I mean - others can have it even if they do not share it).
⭐ And the final words:** I HAVE ALL THE RECENT UPDATES: **updated OBS, StreamElements and my system updates. The problem of this glitch/bug is not extremally serious one as luckily the sessions are not lost (at least so far).
i have the recent updates for OBS and StreamElements and update system is recent , it just happened after the download for StreamElement i have connected my twitch account directly in OBS after click for StreamElements button and connect i have the result on the screenshot i joint before, and don't working for connecting.
OBS update : 27.2.4
StreamElement : 22.3.5.805
I don't know if other people is the subject at the bug but i download StreamElement recently
hi, my issue is that chat bot will refuse to execute commands if i have changed the name to my twitch name.

Looking for some guidance here!
The problem is the following:
I am trying to connect my Youtube and Twitch to streamelements but I receive a message saying "That channel has already been claimed!"
I attached an image for reference on what it looks like on my end.
@prisma burrow ⤵️
Did you get a "Channel already claimed" message?
More than likely your accounts need to be merged! - Please note:
- Merging accounts only allow faster ways to switch between accounts
- Merging accounts does not allow data sharing between accounts - different streaming platforms, different type of events
- Merging accounts allows duplicating/sharing overlays between the accounts
If you understand the limitations of merging and want to proceed, please find the JWT tokens (!jwt) from both accounts you want to merge and fill out the form here: https://streamelements.com/contact with each token correctly labelled
Is merging accounts necessary or will what I have suffice?
A separate but maybe related issue: my SE widgets (subscriber goal and chatbox) are not "communicating" with Twitch. The sub goal and chat box are present and visible as I have set them, but they are not receiving information. For example, the chatbox was blank all stream while I was receiving chats via Twitch. The subscriber goal was 0/50 while I had received and have subs. Any idea where the disconnect is? Tyvm!
Is this possible?
So i'm having an issue thats new and i'm unsure how to fix it.... My computer I built, has an i9 10900K and an RTX 3090 24gb 32gb of ram.... I have 50mb down and up minimum, and just as a check i ran the auto config wizard in SE live, and my results are upsetting and surprising, and nothing i've been able to think of has fixed it... any ideas? used 2 places to show the similarity, and normally I was streaming in 1440p 60fps 6mb rate with no issue at all
Try without se.live
Ok I will
didn't make a difference. it may be my internet being throttled, i'll have to check

Hi there! Since the backend update I have been getting a ton of encoding overload in OBS. Nothing has changed on my end and it happens when my alerts come in or I change scenes. Is anyone else experiencing this?
I personally have not seen a change on my end. You could possibly re-add the source and see if that clears anything up idk if it will do anything but its a step towards troubleshooting
Do you happen to stream on any other platform. Personally ran into an issue where I still was using my stream elements twitch account with my stream elements youtube account
I think that was exactly the problem. I initially had it set up for YT and I was testing the stream out on Twitch. Didn't think it mattered, but it apparently definitely does.
Yeap make sure you are using hte correct platforom or else that would happen!
I cant type lol
is there any way to integrate a chat overlay if I stream on steam?
Can you please clarify what you're trying to do?
I'm gonna be streaming on the page of a game on steam
and im just wondering if theres like a chat function there like twitch and fb
or its just for viewing
Is anybody else having issues with custom bot? I tried to log in with it, but accepting the terms and closing the twitch login window, nothing happen and it still asks for a log in
@oblique bluff ⤵️
If your commands recently stopped working and you're using SE.Live and a custom bot name do the following:
- In SE.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
That does not help, after authorizing the custom bot name the window closes as normal but the bot does not connect

- Right-click your OBS desktop shortcut (not the SE.Live shortcut) and navigate to Properties

Hello! I'm having some problems connecting my custom bot account. I follow every step, click on "connect custom bot account", add name and pass, i authorize the but then... nothing haha... the bot is not connected despite the number of times i try... Any help please???
Hey can a custom bot only work with the SE.live plugin?
How is this not removed though?
Its the only way i know...
He just posted it, probably mods didnt notice yet
Still 
<@&364840891023622144>
I would say uninstall SE.live and OBS (make sure that you don't check the delete settings box) and reinstall OBS only to see if its a SE issue of OBS.
Hey is there a way to use the OBS Plugin to get the activity but get back the old OBS Control panel?
what do you mean?
I've had an issue for a while now where my sub/bit/raid alert videos will freeze mid playback. I can't figure out a fix for it.
I want to use the default OBS panel on the left not the stream elements one on the right.
I really only want the notification center part nothing else
the streamelements is only a plugin it doesnt affect the panel
Well when I was trying to use the panel on the bottom it would not let me turn my stream back on after turning it off for 5 sec
Which the normal one does
Can I get just the Notifications and nothing else as part of this Plug in or no?
This is something we will need to look into, can you please provide us with the OBS logs?
Yes I will send them in the morning
I keeo getting a error when I try to log into my account from obs 400. That’s an error.
can you please provide a screenshot?
There is currently an issue with google and discord amongst other things, hopefully it should be fixed soon
so you cant log into SE live through OBS - using google is that correct?
right at this moment no.
try in the next 10 minutes or so
let us know if theres still an issue

If your commands recently stopped working and you're using SE.Live and a custom bot name do the following:
- In SE.Live, click on the hamburger menu (three stripes) at the top left of your activity feed

- Log in as usual and Authorize the custom bot name

i have done all that, the problem is the bot does not get to connect. After authorizing it i came back to SE.live and still says: connect custom bot

hello guys i have problems with SE live
so i hav euninstalled obs etc reinstalled se live so in obs i connect the se live log into everything but still its not updating my activity feed or chat
and my usermanagement is broadcaster but its like the old users and cand delete and make another broadcaster
also my activity feed on stream elements is not updating as it should
Have you changed your name?
@rugged quail Probably better here so we don't clog up #general-chat too much.
I don't see the bot in your channel, can you go on your dashboard and make sure it's joined? Also, if you're using a custom bot name, the bot won't reply to itself, so I don't think broadcaster only commands will work.

So i downloaded a premade overlay and I am personalizing it. My question is that I dont see a place for my game capture to go, so will it just pop up on its own when i buy the capture device?
StreamElements provide overlays for users to use. You can use OBS to load your stream elements overlay. The game capture is provided by OBS
can i stream my xbox with a capture card through syphon client on mac obs or would i need to transfer to windows for streaming purposes
Hello. I am having an issue where Trying to play League of Legends in Borderless Fullscreen and having SEOBS open at the same time locks League of Legends to 108 fps exactly and it stutters a bunch. I've tried messing with OBS settings, updated drivers etc. but nothing seems to work. Anyone know a fix to this?
i updated streamelements obs and now i dont see some widgets like chat
anyone know why?
also my alerts arent showing
it says no properties available
Nevermind, just resolved it
Does "syphon client" work like game capture on mac or should i give up on mac and try to switch to windows? i havent bought the capture card to try it out yet. I am waiting to see if any professionals know the answer.
is there any guru out here that may know why a scene doesn't load in before the transition ends? so basically
Starting screen
Stinger
BRB screen
But there is a 1 second delay after the stinger has run where the scene then loads. Is it possible to have the scene already there for when the stinger windows opens as if its showing the new screen
all are stream elements browser scenes
Hi @everyone! We are looking to learn more about how you use OBS! As OBS Studio does not collect any telemetry, we're reliant on your direct feedback. To do this, we'll be performing a series of user studies starting with a general survey.
This survey and any additional information we collect is incredibly helpful and is entirely optional.
If you are interested in participating please visit https://obsproject.com/survey 
Hi, I'm having issues with SE Live, I just can't figure out why my alerts aren't showing up. When I test the alerts in Streamelements, they show up there, but not also on my SE live. I feel like there's an option I'm missing, or if I can only see them when I go live. Apologies for the terrible explanation.
Also, I have a pretty low end laptop that I've had for 11 years unfortunately (still works decent enough) that has the "core i5" are there better configurations that should ensure my stream runs decent enough until I can upgrade? Thank you for your time ❤️
Hello, may I ask for some assistance with my alerts? I've uninstalled and reinstalled SE program, and I still cannot get any alerts working, not even the generic ones. I hope I'm not being annoying, it's just the last thing that's holding me back from finally streaming and I just cannot figure it out.
Hi, Could you post a screenshot of the alerts source you've added?
The Browser source?
yes, from obs, not streamelements
I'm sorry, I don't understand the difference, I paste the link from streamelements into OBS
Yes I understand that 🙂 ok please make sure that the browser source of the alerts in OBS set to 1920X1080 res
Okay, I have done that previously, should I also change the main settings to 1920x1080 as well?
what main settings? of the entire stream?
Under the video settings for OBS, for the canvas and scaled res, should I change both of them to the 1920x1080?
I worry that my old man laptop might not be able to handle it haha
Also, thank you so much for taking the time to help, I super appreciate it
its not necessary for the alerts to work, I was referring to the source specifically, I made a small change in your overlay, please try emulating now see if it shows up now.
Can I test in OBS? or do I have to use the StreamElements site?
Unfortunately it does not.
ok, screenshot from OBS pls? 🙂
Also, should we move this to like a different chat? I feel terrible clogging up this one
it is meant to be clogged 😄
ok could you double click on the alerts source so I can see the settings?
ah nvm, take the alert source and drag it to the top, sources are meant to be on top of each other so whats happening here is the alerts are sitting behind your other sources
i still can't see it
and now?
no
ok, delete the source and re-add it, don't forget to drag it to the top of everything, also let me know if you can hear the alerts in obs (mute your browser so youll be able to tell)
neither the visual, nor the sound works
Also, these are the alerts I'd much rather use, I just figured I'd give the generic one to see if the basics could be worked out
I added the source in my obs, its working for me, lets try changing your overall res to 1920x1080
okay, i've changed to 1920x1080 overall, but it's still not working. are you able to test them directly in OBS?
i am testing them directly in obs, theyre def working
may I ask how you're able to test? I so far have only been doing it in the site which allows for "preview live on stream"
am I missing a button? haha
im emulating from the website, there is no test button in obs 🙂
make sure youve followed all the steps here:
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 as shown in this GIF: https://imgur.com/a/2JhJD0S
darn, alright. It's probably that my old man laptop can't handle it haha
Thank you very much for your time and patience, I really do appreciate it! I'll probably just have to wait until I get a better laptop
It is recommended to stream with a somewhat strong pc\laptop regardless of our problem 😄
lol I figured, but that's alright, I've got almost everything set up, so it'll be ready then.
Thank you, take care
i have been trying for days but i can't figure out why StreamElements SE.live won't open. It just flashes a screen for a split second and then nothing. Took me two days to figure out that i had to have OBS Studio installed lol. What am i missing now?
trying from scratch. looks like that was not the issue. OBS is installed through the SE.live setup but it does not install it correctly. Nor does it install the Add-on correctly. is there something messed up with the latest update. i have used this many times in the past but i just am not able to get this up and running. been about a year but still. i don't think that much has changed with the install process
Nvm got it working. Installing SE.live without OBS installed first will cause all kinds of issues. the installer for SE.Live does not install OBS correctly. removing everything, installing OBS studio independently first, then SE.Live with the OBS Studio install unticked, worked like a charge. Tried on another machine, through the normal install process of letting SE.Live install OBS and run into the same issues. there is something wrong with the SE.Live installer with OBS Studio.
Hey guys having an issue when i put the alert to "control audio via obs" whenever i hear the alert it has a clipping sound
this sound goes in the recording aswell
how did you fix this
any news on when the chat is going to be fixed when streaming?
Help apparently OBS discord says my audio issues is due to the selive plugin? Getting audio distorted randomly in the middle of streams. This began once I separated my audio sources i.e discord, web browser, music etc
My suggestion would be to uninstall SE.Live and see if issues persist.
Alright removed it so hopefully that fixes. Also learned to set custom docks so that I have the same as the plugin
I have an issue with media request specifically when using it with SE.Live.. The autoplay always pauses between certain videos. if I open media request in a browser it will autoplay for me and I'm able to control media controls on SE.Live, but is there any way to do this without opening another browser to reduce resources?
I've tried restarting SE.Live in Admin.
okay, disabling hardware acceleration in se.live seems to mostly fixed it. 95% of the time works and more unpredictably pauses without explanation..
yeah, no, idk what's causing it. Browser will play and SE.Live will pause, but if I pause and replay on the browser, it will suddenly update on the SE.Live widget. This is annoying
if I don't even touch the media request on se.live it automatically syncs to the browser one at a random point
So, anyone knows how to fix a issue where the docks have a inside duplicated image of themselves when obs.live is resized to fit in a vertical monitor?
Hi, i have an issue with the chat dock for Facebook live, can anyone help me fix it?
Try the #helpdesk-facebook
Ok, thanks!!
Hi, I was exploring stuffs in the obs live setup and I had this pop up where it asked me the stream title and thumbnail before i started now , now it goes live directly after I click the start stream button, any way to get it back?
Hi, I am a bit new to streaming and I cant download SE.live i downloaded it but i dont know what to do from there. ( im on ios)
Every start of my OBS I get this message, what I have close, because still not interested. Can you please somehow store the information, that I clicked the close button? Thank you! 🙂
guys how do i change SE pay bank card?

everytime someone tries to tip me it says ERROR! restriction seller any help
hello, I need help with my OBS. I've copied my stream overlay link but it doesnt show up
I need help with obs. So i got a audio source. and it should be capturing my game (sniper elite 5). On hunt showdown it worked like a charm but now i changed the window it has to capture to sniper elite 5. but its not catching any sound?
Make sure your audio device is set correctly in sniper elite
I am having issues getting audio to separate. I wanted to put discord audio on, but it only allows selection of my headphones.
Trying to create scenes. The output size of the scene will not stay fixed when navigating in-between different scenes. I keep having to resize it after every transition.
Can someone tell me which capture cards are compatible with se.live on mac?
On what does it have to be set then in sniper elite?
As long as discord is set to output to the same audio output device in your obs scene then it should be picked up in obs
Whatever your obs output device is for your scene
I also know the Xbox game pass version muted when not in focus
It is on Default.
I personally recommend disabling the default obs output and specifying your audio output device in the scene as windows does funky things when updating drivers and can change your default device on a whim. I also recommend setting audio devices in-game whenever possible to match the device output specified in obs as then it will always be there
The “default” audio output means whatever windows says your output is, not what you tell obs it is
Yea like in other games i dont got any issues with it thats the weird part. And it is specifying specific audio output devices. This is the one from the game sniper elite 5. But the sound is not coming through for some reason
I thought you ment put in game on default haha my bad. No but on obs i have specific audio outpits. For discord, spotify, the game itself
My issue is, I want separate audio sources. I don't want to play all noises going through because then I can't separate Copyrighted stuff for youtube.
without voicemeeter banana or a hardware interface that is not possible.
Dang, That kinda sucks 😦 I swapped from Twitch Studios since it was nice. But I'll take a look at those.
Just tried again on another game. other game works perfect. i just cant get my sniper elite 5 audio to come through on a seperate audio source
I hope anyone can help me out since i dont find anything on internet after an hour of searching
website cookies important notice writing typo. just wanted to show you guys lol
I have a problem, when i want to go live before starting the stream there would be a pop up to set the stream title and thumbnails before proceeding, I was in a hurry and accidentally clicked on the do not show again option and now when i go live I can't set the stream title and thumbnail again like i used to, is there any way to bring it back?
I've installed directly off the website, but the se.live plugin does not seem to load/work. the shortcut brings me directly to OBS
i've tried uninstalling and reinstalling, butnot sure what's wrong
is se.live still fully functional with latest obs. i have an ongoing issue and they cannot provide me support in their discord
Getting a bunch of these types of errors trying to open SE or OBS. No clue what to do. Worried if I reinstall if I'll lose all my OBS scenes and settings.

Visual Studio 2019 runtimes are required by the plugins that come with OBS Studio.
Download and install both vc2019redist_x86.exe and vc2019redist_x64.exe from https://obsproject.com/visual-studio-2019-runtimes
I need help with obs. So i got a audio source. and it should be capturing my game in game audio (sniper elite 5). On hunt showdown it worked like a charm but now i changed the window it has to capture to sniper elite 5. but its not catching any sound?
Did not work.
why is my activity feed on obs is still on may? it's not updated..
Have you done anything to trouble shoot this issue?

StreamElements menu, on top of OBS > Logout > Login
Just had a really bad stream... Had to force quit OBS at one point. Over the last couple weeks my framerate has been dropping, getting increasingly bad even as I down grade my stream output. A lot of rendering overloading suddenly even with ONLY OBS SE.Live running and trying even a minimum level of streaming output. Things look great connecting to the non-live test server, but when I go live for real suddenly we have renderer overload (at 30fps 720p). I run chat in a separate window in FF. At one point OBS was giving a "no internet connection" message and 0kbps/fps even though my wifi was connected, chat was still running and connected, my other devices were still connected... and starting up discord, that connected fine. When I force quit and restarted, whatever it did crashed the 5G part of my router and looking at the router logs I'm seeing thousands of blocked requests by the router's firewall at the time of the OBS restart. Any idea what is going on and how to fix? Running version 22.3.5.215 on OSX.

If you are not seeing the OBS Twitch integrations and have SE.Live installed, please follow these steps:
- Make sure you are on the latest and greatest version of SE.Live
- Exit OBS (make sure OBS is not running)
- Delete
%appdata%\obs-studio\plugin_config\obs-browser\obs_profile_cookies - Start SE.Live
- Settings > Stream > Disconnect > Connect
Se.Live is an extension for OBS. It will show up as an extra tab in the top left of options
It is, what issues are you having with OBS? Alternatively, you can uninstall SE.Live and see if you still notice the issue.
@shut bridge ⤵️
Download the OBS installer from their website: https://obsproject.com
Download the SE.Live installer: https://streamelements.com/selive
Install OBS without letting it run after completion.
Install SE.Live and run after finishing (No need to check the OBS option).
Disconnect and reconnect your account in OBS Settings > Stream.

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.
this thing don't fix.
Known issue #helpdesk-facebook message
i have been using obs to stream a game called Swords of Legends Online. the stream works fine for a while but at some point my whole pc starts to stutter and audio starts to crackle the only way to stop it is to end process obs which immediately returns everything to normal in terms of stuttering and crackling.
the issue seems to trigger especially when cutscenes are playing or when there's a lot of characters being displayed on the stream with me not hiding it. even so sometimes it doesn't happen. when it does happen the stream freezes the pc lags a lot and audio crackle.
sometimes the stream doesn't freeze but i lose audio in the stream. i did notice the audio setting can reset on some occasions as well
@ornate grove ⤵️
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.
@ornate grove ⤵️
- Restart OBS
- Start your stream/recording for about 30 seconds. Make sure you replicate any issues as best you can, which means having any games/apps open and captured, etc.
- Stop your stream/recording.
- Select Help > Log Files > Upload Current Log File. Copy the URL and paste the link here.
Note: If you do not see an obsproject.com URL, you will need to update OBS Studio to version 22+.
can i post a log where it happened cause it may take me hours to replicate it
That works too
this was a log where it happened i had to end process obs to stop the stream
For 1, why do you have the base resolution at 2560x1440 and the output at 1920x1080, that's going to take a lot for your PC to handle. Second, let's try getting a different log. You don't need to try and replicate the exact issue you had but let's try and take the similar path (opening the game load a cutscene and etc)
Keep in mind that with high performance games, it my not be best to run everything on the best settings AND stream on the same device as it can cause issues.
can base resolution can be lower i have it at 1440p cause my main monitor is that resolution then i downscaled it to 1080. maybe i miss understood that setting
Base resolution can be lower
There are no "best settings".
Please understand that every setup will be very different.
Any guides or videos that claim otherwise are misinforming. Your best option is to start with a base and adjust as necessary.
You can run the OBS auto-configuration tool. To use the auto-config, click on the Tools menu in OBS, select Auto-Configuration Wizard, and then just follow the on-screen directions.
You can use this tool to get baseline settings for your hardware and adjust as necessary from there.
Test, test, and test again. We are happy to offer suggestions for any issues you may be having afterward, but not a list of settings.
if i auto configure it now will it affect what current SE overlays?
What do you mean affect? They shouldn't mess with them, but you may need to adjust the size for the sources
i messed with some stuff before but i saw that the overlay was getting oversized when i lowered it i think so i went back to this setting
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
https://gyazo.com/86245c2bbaada1ed9f9bb0f1ddb937f8 should i lower it it's like this at the moment in the configuration wizard
Whatever is recommended or what you feel is best. Since your monitor is that size, it should be fine but also if you feel that it lags your PC, you can lower the canvas
my pc doesn't seem to lag it's only when this issue happens then my whole pc stutters then audio crackles together until obs is forcefully closed.
i've been streaming from 5-8 hours and the issue suddenly happens at specific triggers like a cut scene in a raid or when i don't hide players in an in game function in the main city even so it's not always happening sometimes the game lags a bit more then the stream loses all audio but the stream is still running.
sometimes the stream just freezes completely until i force close it and start it over and often if i start over it happens immediately again i have been restarting my pc when that happened.
when i posted the log in obs discord i saw a warning of multiple game capture and a critical of audio buffer then the bot said they don't support stream elements since a version and to ask here
Is this the same log that you posted there as you did here?
yes
@ornate grove ⤵️
A crash log is required to investigate the cause of your issue. Please upload the last crash log.
- In OBS, click the Help menu
- Select Crash Reports and then Upload Last Crash Report
- Copy the URL and paste it to the chat here.
Note: If you are not able to follow the above steps, open your file explorer and go here: %appdata%\obs-studio\crashes and provide the last listed file.
it seems i don't have a crash report of that date in the folder obs doesn't crash i just endprocess it. my whole pc is stuttering at the moment i can still use the obs chat but everything is super laggy after ending the process my pc goes back to normal without me needing to do anything
this is the latest crash report i have

i disabled it it was enabled
That may help but i'm not certain. The other thing is to make sure your drivers are fully up to date. Not only your graphics drivers (Geforce Experince) but your optional/additional updates in windows. Those can have an effect on your sound/processing. worth checking when updating
i will see if it happens again the next time i stream. i've tried a few things but i couldn't fix it still. i used to have one single monitor although i wasn't streaming at the time. now i have two one is 1080p and main is 1440p. i'm aware that my gpu is a over limit for my current monitors and plan to upgrade at some point. the RTX 2060 has 6gb video ram only also. i did lower the graphics settings as well but it still happens. hoping it stops after changing this. i'll write again later if it happens again. thank you for your time and help.
are those updates of any use i've searched online and it seemed they were normally not of any use so i didn't bother installing them but i'm unsure now https://gyazo.com/0a8eacafc63d68c02a1b834146c3b8ce
I am on the persuasion that if they sent an update, it's good to use and if it doesn't work, you can always reverse the update.
how can i stream and record on two different instances? i am not able to record the game on two instances
somehting like this i want to stream on the right and record a mobile resolution on rightside
You want to stream and then record a vertical oriented clip?
So I want to stream and at the same time record a simple version of my face cam and game to upload on tiktok
I believe that streamlabs has a tool like that. It isn’t available “by default” in obs, but can be done with video editing software if you know how to use it
I’ll check stream labs
do u know the name of the tool
I dont know of a tool that @kindred fox is specifically talking about but one thing you can try if you want to run two different instances of OBS. Is use OBS's Virtual Camera and make a source on the vertical version using OBS virtual cam
im not 100% it will work but it is worth a shot to try
Yeap just testted it works
The only downside would be anything in horizontal view will be mirrored over to the vertical view
Hey, im not sure where i have to post my problem but i try it here:
SE dont react to the donations of one specific Viewer (an IRL Friend).
The Dono goes through to paypal and in on the revenue history "tip list" (2 Donos) BUT on the Leaderboard, just one of the Donos is shown.
The Donos is not shown on the activity feed and the alert also dont activates.
He never charged back any money/donos so it cant be the filter. And the other filter are disabled.
So i hit the download button on SE.live right on main website page it downloads all files but the .exe file and instead it gives me a .ico file in its place anyone got a diff link to download se.live atm
Yesterday when I streamed my OBS was sitting in red almost the whole time but my internet was fine, My stream did not lag but it was still concerning. Here is my log file from that stream
if anyone can help understand why please let me know
I've been having trouble using the PKG installer on macOS. I installed it and it appears to have no effect. I also looked in /Applications/OBS.app/Contents/PlugIns but it didn't seem to be there, so I'm not quite sure what it did
I've been having issues with OBS Studio disconnecting randomly while I'm live, I don't think it's inherently an internet problem since I can still be on Discord and multiplayer games with no hiccups/issues
this was the log for today

hi still needing help this problem, it is still occurring. Here is my most recent log file https://obsproject.com/logs/Vsbc2XTmarxRyBSw
I would take a look at this breakdown of your log: https://obsproject.com/tools/analyzer?log_url=https%3A%2F%2Fobsproject.com%2Flogs%2FVsbc2XTmarxRyBSw
can you explain this problem for me I dont understand what Max Audio Buffering is or why its a problem
Basically audio buffer is basically the allowed amount of time audio is allowed to be processed on your computer. If the sound takes too long in buffering the audio will come out distorted, crushed or desynched. OBS diagnostic is saying that a certain limit in audio buffering has been met and the cause is probably your CamLink4K. Please make sure you audio settings on OBS is matched up with your CamLink4K and test it again if you are having further issues you may need to talk to OBS support to help you out
HI I have been having trouble setting up the custom bot name for stream elements bot.
I have tried the following:
- part bot from channel and rejoin the bot back to the channel
- remove custom bot account and added the custom bot account again
- reinstall the StreamElements plugin to OBS Studio
The StreamElements bot is still unable to change the custom bot name, and also it doesn't work when the bot name is changed as well.
Would appreciate help on this.
Does anyone know if my livestream will be cut off if I switch to another app on mobile? I'll be using just my phone to stream so I'm thinking of taking a second phone with whatsapp in case someone needs to reach me

https://streamelements.is-serious.business/6ihr2EL.jpg - Open OBS (or restart if it was open)
- Open your web browser and type in:

Depends. You’d have to experiment and see
Some apps can retain control of the camera, but on iOS it may suspend it
I have Android, so I guess we'll see if it happens! Thank you😄
I followed the steps, but it's still not working unfortunately.
i dont know if this is the right area, but i can't reinstall se live and i cant log into se with my twitch account? it just constantly loads for both. tried with vpn even. nothing changed
Um, how do I set up an overlay in OBS so I can place the elements where I want in my scene?
Im unsure where to put this. So heres my question:
So i got a webcam overlay with my logo on there. Is there a way to when i get a new alert (donation, sub,…) that my logo changes color untill i get a new alert?
Hello Folks, Odd question. I use Streamlabs mobile for my streaming app, and I'm trying to add a Streamelements widget to it but when I do it says it's been blocked due to security or TOS....

Hey guys, I just tried to install SE.Live on my PC. When I ran it for the first time - everything seemed to run smooth. But after restarting it, all the SE-related windows turn to a whitescreen and nothing loads up. Anyone had a similar issue? (I already reinstalled OBS Studio + SE.Live and also deleted cookies etc)
So I am having an issue with setting up withdrawal info . Keeps say form submission failed try again later
I don't know if this is the correct channel to put this in but I have been trying to get an issue resolved about my SE Pay for weeks now. I got a tip while offline from someone I know and now that money is being held for being suspicious. I have replied to an original support ticket sent my way and when nothing came of that I created my own second ticket which someone responded to I think then I replied back but there hasn't been any further reply and I still can't withdraw my money. I know the person who tipped me IRL and its legitimate. It's now about to go into week 3 on this issue and I need this tip because it was to help with an emergency vet bill. When I go into the support tickets it doesn't even show my replies. So I don't know who to reach out to or what to do because the support ticket system seems to not be working in the slightest
Hi, i cant withdraw money dunno why cna somebody help me?
anyone know how to get chat to connect for the obs thing
What platform is your chat for?
@lament jolt ⤵️
If your commands recently stopped working and you're using SE.Live and a custom bot name do the following:
- In SE.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

Do both of these actions
I dont know what this means
I dont know where the menu is
nvm I got it
After trying that, I got the same error^^ (The right audio mixer does exist, the left one is a bug). Also, as soon as I restart the PC I am greeted by the SE-Login Screen (where you can connect your accounts). But I need to login every single time! Only after Restarting SE.Live while the PC is running I get these whitescreens!
So that is 3 different solutions to making stream elements bot implement the custom bot name change but it still doesn't work. I think by this time it really isn't going to work after all. Thanks for helping anyway.
I need help with something. so when i open my obs it works fine, but when i downloaded SE.LIVE and re-open obs all i can see is a white screen. I can't create scenes or do anything. only this happened after i installed SE.LIVE.. any solutions?
Hey man, welcome to the club - I am having the same issue!
No fix yet at all?
Well, I think it had something to do with my GPU, I got it to run through installing an older driver. But that's just a temporary fix 😅
quick question, iam testing something.
do you stream on twitch or youtube?
I am streaming on twitch
oh so it doesn't matter. The thing is i used to stream on twitch but a month ago i wanted to switch to youtube and this issue came when i log in with my youtube account
Well, I have the same problem when trying to login to my Twitch account. 😦 Maybe it really is a SE.Live related bug!
Did the support replied back for you?
No, I also got the issue just yesterday^^
can someone help me?
When is the chat in obs going to be fixed it worked for like a day and now not pulling through on Facebook
i'm thinking what if we went back to an old version of the obs would it work?
The pinned message in #helpdesk-facebook says there's currently no ETA. I expect when they do have one there will be an announcement.

Hi I'm having an issue with SE.Live. when I livestream to youtube my chatbox never loads. the stream is public and listed. I also see nothing when I click Live video settings I've included 2 screenshots. This happened to me on windows 10 now I'm on a fresh install of win 11.
Currently there is a known issue with going Live with SE.Live. Devs are aware of the issue.
The workaround for this is, to click on the "Live Video Settings" button in the chat dock and use the 2nd option from the pop up "Use these settings" to go live.
if this is a known issue that's fine. workaround doesn't work for me all I see when I click live video settings is a blank window. at least its acknowledged. Thank you

Hey, the SE.Live uninstaller is crashing for me on "Checking for locked files..."
After that, try this, Settings > Stream > Disconnect > Connect
I want a custom streamelements bot but don't want to install SE.live how do I get a custom bot instead?
You need SE.Live in order to have a custom bot name
But SE.live isn't great for me. I really don't want to be forced to change my obs for a custom name
SE.Live is an extension for OBS
Which changes the way obs works
So many issues regarding the way it works
So I prefer not to use it for a custom bot
All my chat messages are being deleted and it's saying its from me nothing was changed other than a windows update over the weekend. Anyone familiar with this issue. 613d4f6e82a4ae5e006ba506

It's your twitch settings, i removed the bot from your channel and it still mutes/deletes my messages
That is weird because I haven't changed anything to my stream.
Only thing I know for sure is I had a windows update over the weekend.
I look into your twitch creator dashboard > Settings > moderation, that may help with finding the cause
Any other suggestions?

my custom bot name is having issues

even when i switch back to streamelements being the bot

Should be under Docks, however, if it doesn't appear there then you should be able to find it via StreamElements > SE Docks. If not, try the following ⤵️

If your commands recently stopped working and you're using SE.Live and a custom bot name do the following:
- In SE.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

Hey there, do you happen to have the ticket number for the request you sent in at this time? We are experiencing a higher volume of requests than normal at this time, so we apologize for any delay in response.
#236766
Hey there, to clarify is this regarding a recent tip to your account? If so, I'm not seeing a response to the rep who reached out initially about the issue, however I can reply in the ticket for you of what information we are looking for if you would like?
my issue is my default SE chat commands do not save once I turn them off. I would turn them off, come back another day and they would be turned on again despite the site giving me a pop up saying they are saved
What browser are you using?
Chrome
Can you clear your cache and cookies, then try resaving the items?
Can give it a try and provide an update tomorrow if that is okay with you
That’s weird bc I responded the same day. Can I DM you?
alert
did as you said, resaved them. But this time once i switched tabs to the custom commands and went back to the default commands the ones I turned off turned themselves back on
its been stuck like this ever since obs crashed when i tried t edit ;o;
MAKE IT GO AWAY LOL
Confused on why the rep is not receiving my emailed response. I also forwarded the email thread to support@streamlabs.com in case the rep is on their day off but still no response from anyone.
Has anyone found a solution to media requests still not auto playing yet ?
wrong email so that may be why we're not getting your responses. it should be support@streamELEMENTS.com
When you notice this issue, are you using the Media Request Dock in SE.Live? Have you tried a quick toggle of "stop showing on stream" then "Show on Stream" from the dock? this should help retrigger the autoplay
@marble stirrup ⤵️
SE.live is a plugin for OBS Studio for the best OBS support, please join their Official Discord @ https://discord.gg/obsproject
@heavy maple I’ve use the dock in se live and I’ve used streamelements.com . It does the same on both . And I’ve done the show on stream and stop . Neither work
this isnt an obs issue tho is it? the orange box is from SE.live so this is where'd i'd go for help on that right?
who checks tickets on streamelements site?
So, I'm continuing having troubles with SE.Live OBS. I ran a log analysis on my last stream after, while I was playing on a console and hadn't touched the computer or streamdeck, OBS not only randomly switched scenes but turned off all but two of the sources in that scene.
Log analysis says "Audio Buffering" is the critical problem and pointed to a specific file (which is the one in the scene it switched to as well)... PLOT TWIST! The video file doesn't have an audio track so buffering should NEVER be a problem there. OBS is also showing audio source controls for the file and won't let me change to "don't control audio" for that file.
This might be an OBS bug. I did some settings tweaking to have it marked as no tracks and mono in the advanced audio controls but doesn't seem to fix the issue.
SE.Live doesn't really touch settings in that manner, so it sounds like OBS itself might be acting up. What version are you running?
OBS Studio 27.2.2 (64 bit) for OS X
I would uninstall that and install the newest version 27.2.4 from https://obsproject.com/
Is there a way to get it to tell me when there is an OBS update? Right now it says "this is the current version"
@fast isle ⤵️
Download the OBS installer from their website: https://obsproject.com
Download the SE.Live installer: https://streamelements.com/selive
Install OBS without letting it run after completion.
Install SE.Live and run after finishing (No need to check the OBS option).

Hi there, not too sure where to ask!
Could someone help me or point me in the right direction please?
I'm having issues with TTS on my Alert box. I've had it setup and working for a long time, but for the last 6 months or so? the TTS is hit or miss. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesnt. No idea what's causing it.
What voice are you using for TTS?
oo good shout, one sec i'll check.
Kate, which I imagine is for all of the variations etc, unless there's a way to change it "globally"
So there is a known issue with Kate. Devs are aware. Please try a different voice 🙂 (Ps. be sure to adjust for any variants you may have TTS enabled for)
ah, that's no bueno.. 😦 any other TTS bots I should avoid?
thank you btw, nice to know my issue was something super simple and nothing to worry! 😄
For English,
Kate
Michael
Allison
Lisa
oh boy, noted! thanks a bunch. 🙂
Is there a way to global change bits and pieces btw? Things a bit fiddley now that i've dived down this rabbit hole, im editing everything and making sure text is uniform and things like that
sigh sadly... no
it is tedious and i hope you don't lose too much sanity adjusting it. Apologies in advance
no problem, comfies on, netflix on second monitor, i'll schill as I fiddle 
Thanks for all your help! 
Of course! If anything else happens, let us know
@heavy maple sorry to bother again, king! 
Is there anywhere I can hear a compiled list of TTS samples or such? x)
Sadly, i don't think that's a thing we have (great idea tho), but let me double check
was searching youtube and reddit for such, best I found was "creepy tts voices" and things similar, funny tho! 😂
Sounds like a great time time! And i have confirmation that sadly we don't have a sample platter for the TTS voices.
Nay bother! 
Hey I’ve been in this chat before about this problem and it still isn’t resolved. I am still unable to withdraw any of my tips from SE Pay due to a donation made while I was offline. I had one ticket previously about this that was marked solved. And then I had a second ticket that was responded to after I reached out here in the discord and I responded to that ticket with the information and then it was marked complete but I still can’t withdraw my money. Both tickets were marked complete and I sent in all proof needed that this was a legitimate donation made by someone I knew so I don’t know what else to do.
Responded to your ticket, but your issue should now be resolved
Thank you so much 😭😭😭😭 finally being able to withdraw that is gunna help me a ton so I appreciate you! Thanks again!
my media request doesnt autoplay
idk if someone can help me
Wanted to ask about availability for SE.Pay in Canada? I know it isn’t on the listed countries available but apparently some people have it (linking a tweet with it)? I’d love to use the service if possible https://twitter.com/witchytq/status/1543075462137536513?s=21&t=hfnke8YA9Ai-SJlg96ARYQ

How do I reset my se.live settings?
If i use SE.Live can i use elgato stream decks with the OBS Studio buttons - e.g. change scene etc or only the SE.Live supported buttons
I use SE Pay for tips when streaming, how do i get alerts for it?
Any tip alert will read events from SE.Pay
Thank you for the reassurance
Se.Live is just an extension for OBS, you should still be able to use any OBS related tools for Stream Deck
hello, I'm having trouble getting media request to show up on my stream
Are you able to get the dock to show?
Do you have "show on stream" clicked? is your Media request overlay on the top of the source list? Does your browser source have Media request added as a widget?
yes to all. it only shows in the editor for some reason (the red outline in the first pic is where it should be but it's not showing for some reason)
@rugged quail ⤵️
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
do you mean to make the video full size?
The browser source needs to be the full resolution. right now the video isn't showing
right now it looks like it's at 800x600. needs to be 1920x1080
yes you are right let me fix that now thanks!
wow that worked thanks so much!!!
i can't believe the fix was that simple lol
Glad it was that simple!
Hey, my SE live just out of the blue stopped launching...if i double click it does nothing, if i run as admin it tries to start then just goes right back to windows. i even uninstalled and re installed..

@queen hedge ⤵️
- Uninstall SE.Live and OBS Studio completely, but leave this unchecked https://i.imgur.com/LBaHgM1.png
- Download and install OBS Studio from https://obsproject.com/
- If it doesn't crash, install SE.Live too.
-
It's fixed? Nice!
-
It crashes again?
- Repeat steps 1 and 2
- Duplicate the current "Scene Collection" at the very top of OBS, call it something like "Backup" and remove all browser sources in that backup
- Install SE.Live and see if it still crashes
- If yes, repeat steps 1 and 2, leave SE.Live uninstalled, tell us that it didn't work and use your old default scene collection again.
it actually wont even uninstall SE. lol It starts then just disappears off the screen and stays on my desktop.
that was a very strange 20 min here, but it seems to be launching now...that's definitely never happened before.
Interesting... glad to hear it's working now
especially when i was trying something new with my obs. I was trying to mirror my ipad screen into it when it got all crazy on me. So i wonder if that had anything to do with it.
Hello SE community! Just joined here cause I can't figure out what the problem is with this:
I recently started streaming on youtube through OBS, I'm encountering the two following problems:
- When SE plugin is installed the preview of my stream on youtube dashboard does not work.
- I cannot make youtube chat appear neither on dock (consistently) or in my overlays.
Looking for some assistance. Having issues with the overlay editor in selive not showing any assets
For those having the issue where the SE.Live Chat Dock "Could not find Live video on your YouTube Page." I’ve tried every suggested fix and nothing worked. I finally got it working by doing the following: First make sure you aren’t using a duplicate stream key; Then in OBS create a Dock for the YouTube popout chat; Scroll down and sign into your account; Run an unlisted stream. Those chat docks might show the whole Stream control page the first time but all subsequent streams have only had chat. You can also delete the newly created Chat dock.
The above process might also work if your activity feed in SE.Live isn't working. However, if you have a Twitch and YouTube channel linked to the same StreamElements account then the created Dock defaults to the Twitch login (at least it does for me). I don't see any way of changing that and since I don't get a lot of activity yet, I don't know if completing the login has the intended effect.
Hi there, I had to hard restart my PC following a crash and now I'm getting the message "Oops! We were unable to reach Stream Elements servers
ERR_CONTENT_DECODING_FAILED
Please try again later"
I've tried restarting OBS & my PC again, still getting the same message
Hey all, Happy 4th. I have a question about OBS/SE Live integration with Stream Deck. It has been working just fine, but the other day (perhaps after an update of stream deck or SE live?) all of my OBS buttons stopped working (lights and other buttons still work) and if I try to create a new OBS button or edit an old one, it just has a spinning wheel that says "Waiting for OBS". Any help would be appreciated.
Also, I uninstalled and reinstalled the stream deck already and that didn't fix the issue.
bump
So, I was sent here because my OBS seems to be having issues (yes I have SE downloaded) where I cant see my chat, game/title window and Activity window and I can't find it anywhere in my docks, anyone knows how to fix that or where to find it?
Hey everyone! I commented on this a few months ago but wondering if someone could help/clarify. With the emoteplosion feature, is there a way to set a minimum amount that it will go off so it doesn't always show for low-amount donations? Currently we have it looking at tips, which displays a gif for every amount donated, but we don't want the emoteplosion to do that. We want it to go off only when there is a minimum of let's say $20 donated. I've looked at the options available quite extensively, but haven't had any luck. Any help would be appreciated!
Hello everyone, I was hoping to ask for help on how to set up a media share widget onto my stream on OBS
Or how exactly to add it to my overlay since that's what my OBS asks me to do
There's directions for adding the widget down near the bottom
I got this since a crash of windows. I already tried to reinstall SE.live, but no change. The Stream chat of SE is running fine. Any advise to repair this?
anything I can do to fix this? It shows with any widget or SE specific thing I open so I cant see the full window
it will show it looking normal when I first open it but when I go to click on it - it then zooms in and messes up - I haven't had this problem outside of SE
resetting ui will also have the same effect - changing it visually for 1-2s before it goes back to this zoomed in/cut off view
full screen for context -
Okay - OBS states my screen is a 1440p monitor instead of a 4k monitor so thats why it displays like this. I guess this is an OBS issue instead of an SE issue, if I am incorrect please let me know if its something I can change through SE some way ^^
I could fix by log out on the stream elements side and log in there new. For the case anyone else has this problem 😉
any help with this please? ,w,
see, there's no chat ;o
File > Settings > Stream > Disconnect + Reconnect
a lot of people have told me that but there is no disconnect button
an then they sent me here instead of obs ,w,
Can you try changing the service to anything not twitch, and then back to twitch?
I think I fixed it
seems like my disc E was not elligible with it
but C and D are so I reinstalled it to D
though is there a way to get back that window that lets me change the name of the stream and the game and stuff?
since one of the updates I can only use the activity feed to open the stream settings and I preffered the window =p=
The docks menu, or the docks menu under the SE.Live menu
Bump.
Still having this issue. What could be causing OBS to not connect with the stream deck software?
What issues are you having? Can you send a screenshot of what you're seeing?

Still haven’t received a response to my ticket #236766
We don't have a response on this ticket... can you please resend your response?
either your base canvas (obs video settings) or the overlay itself is not set to 1920x1080
does it work now?
Yes

Had to change it to 1920x1080
But since emoteplosion is looking at the tips event, wouldn't it still go off on any tips received? I have variations set for tips, but it still goes off no matter how much is donated.
I have a variation created where there needs to be a minimum of 50 tipped. There are no options to add an emotesplosion to this specific varitation
I'm sure this has been asked a million and half times, but is there a way to either save the login per profile in OBS or have a way to quick switch accounts for the activity feed? noticed its kinda a PIA to switch from Twitch to YT activity feed... unless im just ignorant and dont see a easier way besides log out and log in?
There is not.
heck. kinda clunky having to do the login dance lol
Trust me, I get it.
i have been having issues getting OBS + SE to work. Nothing works (except some menu bar options by holding mouse down), and “Oops! We are unable to reach StreamElements servers. ERR_CONTENT_DECODING_FAILED”, and OBS won’t stay active (after clicking into OBS + SE, the window will become inactive) I’ve done a full uninstall and reinstall of both, and still the same error. If I only reinstall OBS, everything works (except no StreamElements to use).
Are you streaming on a vpn?
@scarlet meadow ⤵️
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.
I honestly have no idea what happened. But after a billionth time of rebooting OBS after reinstalling StreamElements, I got an option to login to twitch (but still doing the weird thing where OBS would not stay active). After getting through that process slowly, it all just for some reason works...

hm, my bot dosent work after I changed my name on twitch. how do I fix it?
@hard notch ⤵️
If you changed your name on Twitch, please follow these steps:
- Visit https://streamelements.com/logout and then log in again by connecting with Twitch.
- On the right side of the dashboard page that opens, select Join under bot settings. If it says Part select that and then select Join to send the bot to the chat. Don't forget to mod the bot by typing
/mod streamelementsin your channel if you have not already. - Post your old and your new name here so that we can update your channel's chatstats tracking (must be done by staff).
so old name is ItzWolfyTDMLIVE
and new one is JustItzWolfy
Stats fixed.
I have experienced to get into stream elements and obs studio, please help me how to solve this problem
I've repeated how many times to enter but it's still same
Hi guys - this is probably something really obvious, but I can't see chat in my OBS (Se Live)
It doesn't seem to be a dockable option for some reason
Are you trying to login via Facebook? IF so try this then log into streamelemnts on a web browser: #helpdesk-facebook message
What platform are you streaming to? You should be able to find the chat dock by navigating to StreamElements (Top of Menu options) > SE Docks > Chat
Got it, thank you 🙂
Thank you.. I really appreciate it
Sorry, I think I was just being stupid. I created a whole new overlay, added a tips-only alertbox that doesn't show any gifs (just sets the minimum donation amount), then added the kappagen emotesplosion to the same overlay.
I'll test later tonight, but I'm guessing it's going to work.
it didn't work

I’ve been having a real bad case recently where my obs (with SE.live) just keeps crashing, causing me to end, usually it’s a result of a video cap just showing blank and when I try, activate/deactivate- it just freezes everything.
Any help would be great! It’s happened the last two streams now!
Hello I have a problem when using my elgato HD60 S in obs studio (With Se live installed). when im streaming a console game using my elgato the picture will randomly go black and I have to 'Deactivate' and 'Activate' the elgato in OBS for it to come back. It's a issue Ive been having for over a year possibly longer and have yet been able to find a fix. It has worked fine in the past so I don't know why this has been happening. an example of what im talking about is in this clip from my most resent stream: https://www.twitch.tv/andymengames/clip/EagerComfortableHyenaAllenHuhu-l1ZPAE2ha4Sf5G5P?filter=clips&range=30d&sort=time (It happens right at the end). Sorry for the re-post I deleted by mistake.
So I need help setting up SE.Pay. I am not sure how that tipping feature works. I have it setup where viewers can tip and I believe I have over $8 there. But it says I have a restraint do to country or channel size. Well I am from the US and my channel has over 450 subscribers

- Restart OBS
- Start your stream/recording for about 30 seconds. Make sure you replicate any issues as best you can, which means having any games/apps open and captured, etc.
- Stop your stream/recording.
- Select Help > Log Files > Upload Current Log File. Copy the URL and paste the link here.
Note: If you do not see an obsproject.com URL, you will need to update OBS Studio to version 22+.
unfortunately its completely random it could be fine for a few hours and then go or it will happen every few minutes. this means i can replicate the conditions for it to happen
Please uninstall SE. Live and see if you still notice this issue. If you do, Please reach out to the OBS discord. This issue is not related to SE.Live or OBS and most likely a driver issue, but OBS won't assist with your issue if SE.Live is installed.
I would double check the driver version you have installed and "repair" install or perform a "clean" install of the driver
This is what I have set up: the third screenshot is of the tips settings in our overlay for alerts called "streamelements alertbox". It shows alerts for bits, tips, gifts, etc. The overlay is set up to show a gif for any amount received (hence the minimum amount set to 0). The first screenshot is showing the emotesplosion settings for a second overlay I created called "emotesplosion" that contains a tips alertbox and the emotesplosions alert (set to look at tips only). The second screenshot is of the tips alert, as mentioned previously, that's set to a minimum of 50. I had thought the emotesplosion alert would only be looking at the tips event in ONLY the "emotesplosion" overlay and NOT the "streamelements" alertbox overlay. However, when I emulate a $1 tip, it displays the emotesplosion anyways. Hopefully this clears things up. If there's any way to make this work, I would appreciate the help! Thanks! 💙 (sorry, the screenshot order got mixed around)
I resent on a different email address bc nobody is receiving anything from my original email address for some reason

- Uninstall SE.Live and OBS Studio completely, but leave this unchecked https://i.imgur.com/LBaHgM1.png
- Download and install OBS Studio from https://obsproject.com/
- If it doesn't crash, install SE.Live too.
-
It's fixed? Nice!
-
It crashes again?
- Repeat steps 1 and 2
- Duplicate the current "Scene Collection" at the very top of OBS, call it something like "Backup" and remove all browser sources in that backup
- Install SE.Live and see if it still crashes
- If yes, repeat steps 1 and 2, leave SE.Live uninstalled, tell us that it didn't work and use your old default scene collection again.

Heya there, just recently ran into an issue and been looking for a fix, but it doesn't seem like it's happened before. using the media request, on any backup playlist, it'll load and play bits of the song, but then the music will randomly stop and not play again for another several minutes, while the timer bar seems to keep going but doesn't update on the overlay itself? is this a known issue with a fix or is something locally messing with it, because I've run over a lot of my settings and nothing's changed from when it was working
Hi, hope Lappland and Immortal are able to get some help.
I'm having a ton of issues optimizing the software for my macbook and was hoping someone could help. My Macbook usually zips running some of the programs I've ran in the past, but concurrently with OBS everything screeches to a halt!

If you are not seeing the OBS Twitch integrations and have SE.Live installed, please follow these steps:
- Make sure you are on the latest and greatest version of SE.Live
- Exit OBS (make sure OBS is not running)
- Delete
%appdata%\obs-studio\plugin_config\obs-browser\obs_profile_cookies - Start SE.Live
- Settings > Stream > Disconnect > Connect
Streaming Tools > My Overlays > whichever overlay has your alertbox > Emulation (bottom center of the screen) > Make sure "preview live on stream" is selected > Tip

There are no "best settings".
Please understand that every setup will be very different.
Any guides or videos that claim otherwise are misinforming. Your best option is to start with a base and adjust as necessary.
You can run the OBS auto-configuration tool. To use the auto-config, click on the Tools menu in OBS, select Auto-Configuration Wizard, and then just follow the on-screen directions.
You can use this tool to get baseline settings for your hardware and adjust as necessary from there.
Test, test, and test again. We are happy to offer suggestions for any issues you may be having afterward, but not a list of settings.

OBS (Open Broadcaster Software) is free and open source software for video recording and live streaming. Stream to Twitch, YouTube and many other providers or record your own videos with high quality H264 / AAC encoding.
SE.live is a plugin for OBS Studio for the best OBS support, please join their Official Discord @ https://discord.gg/obsproject
Uhh…Do I have to use SE.love to use Streamelements in OBS?
I’m concerned that this version of Obs it’s built on is hogging resources on my device
Compromising my potential stream quality
No, you can just use the overlays as browser sources. However, if you're having an issue with OBS and you're not using SE.Live, it's best to ask for help in the OBS discord
Also, if you're having issues with OBS, it's best to uninstall and see if you still notice the issue that way you can see if it's SE.Live related or OBS related
Did not resolve the issue- What next?
Just so we don't clog up #general-chat :)
oh no problem, thanks
so this is the issue
when i stream my games to twitch, i have obs on the left screen and the game on the right screen
but the activity feed is out of focus or some as well as the chat box in my dock
i dont know how to fix this issue. it makes it hard to read my chat and click on things
can u help me?
Are your monitors the same resolution?
it says they are in settings
Can you click in the chat dock and hit CTRL + 0 (zero, not capital O)
nothing happens
in the comment section? actually i cant see the comment box
if i move the obs to the right screen it resets the correct way btw
hmm
Everything in the second screenshot looks bigger, even though the size is the same. Can you verify your resolution is the same? (Right click desktop > display settings)
Yup, that will do it
on my left screen says recommended at 125 but the right screen was recommended at 100
thank you so much, that's been bugging me for days
Glad it was an easy fix, I was running out of ideas on what could be wrong with OBS haha
lol i bet, you were a big help, wouldnt have figured it out if i had not asked for help
You would have eventually 🙂
thank you anyways
Welcome
No further assistance for my issue?
I'll take that as a no
Hey y’all, I just installed SE.live on my pc to link with OBS.. previously I had been streaming fine without it, but after I linked it, I noticed at the top center of my OBS screen I had a “503 service unavailable” message up that showed on stream when I went live as well. I don’t have any overlays there on that spot, and it wasn’t there before the install. Does anyone know what that is?
