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

bold quiver
#

where do i get the link

#

nvm. upload last log file gave nothing but upload current file did

#

i had streamlabs obs working all day no problem. so i doubt its anything to do with stream keys

#

I got it. after resetting my stream key on fb multiple times it finally worked

toxic fable
#

i am having the same issue right now. wont connect. keeps disconnecting and retrying. first time this has ever happened. just streamed last night.

#

@faint apex Don't post it in any more channels please.

#

Try this first: after resetting my stream key on fb multiple times it finally worked

toxic fable
#

i have reset my stream key 11 times now. its still not working.

#

another fellow streamer of mine is having the same issue right now.

deft karma
#

my stream was shut down 3 times tonight now im getting the same message as you @faint apex . i think it may be on FB end tonight

#

@toxic fable Please keep it to one channel. Thank you.

toxic fable

Please be patient.

@toxic fable @faint apex @deft karma There may be an issue with the automatic system. For a solution, you can use the custom settings in OBS:

toxic fable
#

that dont work either

real heart
#

I just did it myself, make sure of your settings.

toxic fable
#

what settings. i did just like you said. stream key and server links were copied and pasted accurateley

faint apex
#

What setting

real heart
toxic fable
#

ya so did i

faint apex
#

me neither

real heart
#

It may be possible Facebook is having some issues as Buford suggested.

lavish kite
#

Is anyone else having issues staying connected? when I try to stream it says obs disconnected and reconnecting but does nothing and wont stream.

toxic fable
#

hasty salmon

Why streamelement reconneting?

Is it the activity feed or entire obs?

#

@hasty salmon @toxic fable @lavish kite

lavish kite
#

inland brook
#

Did you try what I suggested above? @sick osprey

sick osprey
#

yes

#

some of my friends also said that its facebook having problems on obs and slobs

inland brook
#

I was gonna suggest to remove OBS.Live and just try with OBS Studio

#

to see if its just OBS.Live or no

sick osprey
#

also tried on the plain obs

inland brook
#

Then its nothing we can help with.

#

Disconnected from rtmps://live-api-s.facebook.com:443/rtmp

sick osprey
#

thanks

inland brook
#

this is what I saw in the log file that was provided previously

#

but nothing suggests what it can cause the disconnect

sick osprey
#

@inland brook i was just wondering if its on the streamelements app

#

thats why i chatted here

void yoke
#

hello there i need help with facebook gaming when i go live it never works i go to my streamer dashboard click go live and it wont go live i tried everything lmao

#

im new to this also

inland brook
#

It may seem that facebook is having issues with channels going live.

void yoke
#

oh but it worked with out the facebook thing

#

im sigined in to fb in obslive

inland brook
#

It worked for the past few days but now its not working right?

void yoke
#

well can i show u?

#

like what i mean

inland brook
#

If you look above you will see others are having the issue of OBS not going live with Facebook streams

void yoke
#

oh is it cause of the fb login thingy? of fb gaming

#

cause streaming to normal fb live works

inland brook
#

lyxyz even provided info that normal OBS is not working for Facebook

#

Wdym "normal fb live works"?

void yoke
#

like i was streaminy dying light on it before

#

like 1 hour ago or 40 mins

inland brook
#

That doesn't tell me anything.

void yoke
#

oh

#

wait can i add you to a call and explain?

inland brook
#

Im not available for voice support.

void yoke
#

okay

#

but what im saying is

inland brook
#

either show a screenshot or provide more details on how you went live.

void yoke
#

when i use normal fb live stream key and rtp thingy and the live works but then i used the new facebook gaming option in obs and it wont go live ill screenshot it

#

i dont make sense sorry

inland brook
#

normal fb live stream key and rtp thingy - what is this thingy?

void yoke
#

i mean this

#

ill show you a screenshot

#

using that on normal obs with out fb account signed in works fine

inland brook
#

are you using OBS.Live or no?

void yoke
#

but then i have no tipping or other stuff working

#

yes obs live

#

using the new fb feature

inland brook
#

uninstall OBS.Live

void yoke
#

yeh

inland brook
#

wait

mystic ermineBOT
#

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

void yoke
#

okay ty

#

ill do that

#

can i just upload the log in here or does it gotta be in a pastebin

#

oh i think thats the old log lmao

inland brook
#

yes it is

#

9th July

void yoke
#

rip i found the new one

#

At the end is the fb live stream thingy

inland brook
void yoke
#

okay keizar

#

i found one thing but no luck

#

it says im live but in my dashboard why wont it go live

#

also at button it said disconnecting

inland brook
#

Stop the stream(or w/e its trying to broadcast)

#

and uninstall OBS.Live

#

and try and go live

void yoke
#

okay

#

but obs dont have fb support right?

inland brook
#

OBS.Live is a plugin for OBS Studio

void yoke
#

ah

inland brook
#

we just add an activity feed and chat

#

OBS Studio is able to stream to Facebook for a long time.

void yoke
#

and the cloud option stuff?

#

oh ok

#

so tips will work ? and chat

inland brook
#
we just add an activity feed and chat
void yoke
#

yeh i know

#

but i also need that chat lol

inland brook
#

Tips have nothing to do with our plugin or OBS STudio

void yoke
#

oki

inland brook
#

Just try what I instructed you.

#

Lets see if our plugin is the issue here.

void yoke
#

okay

#

yup

#

its the plugin

#

ok now it disconnected nvm working

inland brook
#

is it working or is it disconnecting you?

void yoke
#

its working now

inland brook
#

that ninja edit after "ok now it disonnected" isn't help me understand

void yoke
#

haha sorry

#

oh cant we use 1080p?

inland brook
#

Im not sure I understand what you mean

void yoke
#

like for streaming are we only allowed 720p

inland brook
#

I don't know.

#

Im not familiar with Facebook has limitations on size of stream

void yoke
#

oki

mystic dock
void yoke
#

oh

#

well streams working ty

#

just dunno if its streaming to fb gaming

inland brook
#

Ok, so its not working then

void yoke
#

well its live

inland brook
#

with and without our plugin

void yoke
#

but i think only to my page

mystic dock
#

Does it work now? Yes or no? Because if not, there's something you have to do.

void yoke
#

ffs it keeps doing this but my settings are fine

#

fb said its all fine

mystic dock
void yoke
#

i havethat enabled

inland brook
#

And you have removed OBS.Live?

void yoke
#

yeh

#

i switched to obs

inland brook
#

you clicked on "Streamelemetns" on top and clicked "switch to obs"?

void yoke
#

yeh

inland brook
#

I instructed you to uninstall the plugin not switch away from it

void yoke
#

oof

mystic dock
#

Did you just enable it or was it already enabled?

void yoke
#

it was enabled like 20 mins ago

primal sedge
#

What's new on the facebook platform? Since I try to do direct I put the restransmission password and it automatically changes me to a custom server !! I would like to have a problem in general and if there is a solution, thank you.

inland brook
#

Im not sure I understand what you mean.

#

Are you trying to restream or something?

primal sedge
#

I'm trying to do streaming on facebook, but it does not leave me !!

mystic ermineBOT
#

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

primal sedge
#

Normally it is assumed that the live password is set and the transmission is automatically started, however, the password can not even be started and it puts me in custom mode

inland brook
#

I don't understand what you are trying to explain there.

#

I strongly suggest to use a cable

primal sedge
#

brother, all my life I've done streaming in the same way, only today I could not, my internet is not, since if I do streaming on another platform it works perfectly

inland brook
#

Check the analyzed log file.

#

If its saying you are dropping frames, then you have internet issue.

primal sedge
#

But why does not the same thing happen with youtube or twitch?

inland brook
#

Are you restreaming?

primal sedge
#

yes

#

for all platforms I do the same

inland brook
#

Still 05:08:32.283: Output 'adv_stream': Number of dropped frames due to insufficient bandwidth/connection stalls: 536 (90.4%)

#

This indicates internet issue.

#

And I can see in the log that you tried to stream to FB

#
05:08:32.283: WriteN, RTMP send error 10053 (102 bytes)
05:08:32.283: WriteN, RTMP send error 10038 (42 bytes)
05:08:32.283: [rtmp stream: 'adv_stream'] Disconnected from rtmps://rtmp-pc.facebook.com:443/rtmp
05:08:32.283: Output 'adv_stream': stopping```
#

Enable this option

primal sedge
inland brook
#

That is not restreaming

#

that is a direct stream to Facebook

primal sedge
inland brook
#

This is restreaming

primal sedge
inland brook
#

afterwards try and start hte stream

#

when it ends

#

provide me with the log file again

primal sedge
#

I'm sorry I handle little English, I'm from Mexico

#

here you have

#

the picture went green but the live one could not start telling me off and reconnecting

inland brook
#

You provided me with the same log file

primal sedge
#

OK, let me

#

I try to tranmistir I stop it and the same regristro comes out again !!

inland brook
#

4mpbs isn't quite fully enough for stremaing.

primal sedge
#

Do not you think it could be the facebook servers?

inland brook
#

Provide the log file again

#

Thats what i've been trying to find out for the past few hours

#

But its hard to pinpoint.

primal sedge
#

bro all my life I've done streaming with the same amount of mbs and I'll tell you if I do streaming right now on YouTube starts it perfectly

inland brook
#

Im not arguing with you and I'm not arguing with what the log file is showing.

#

But until you provide me with a proper log file, after enabling the above option i mentioned

#

I can't help you more then tell you that your internet is having an issue at the moment

#

This can be because your ISP(internet service provider) is having an issue and it might be out of your control.

primal sedge
inland brook
#

The disconnect part might be because Facebook is having na issue.

#

Help me with the log file, so that i can help you.

primal sedge
#

I have a friend with the same problem but he uses another plugin to be able to do streaming and in the help section they put this on, I do not mention the platform because I do not know if it causes problems

#

Currently we are aware of issues where users cannot go live to Facebook with

inland brook
#

Where are you seeing this message?

primal sedge
#

they sent it to my friend in the support of streamlabs

inland brook
#

Im asking for help with the log file

primal sedge
#

Do I send you the file again?

inland brook
#

@primal sedge Try and reenter your FB streamkey

primal sedge
#

ok

jovial elk
#

i just tried streaming on fb.. everytime i click on start streaming.. it auto disconnects

inland brook
#

Try and refresh your streamkey

jovial elk
#

i did

inland brook
#

No dice?

jovial elk
#

i re-enter stream key.. reset stream key

inland brook
#

Ok, so far there are indications that maybe Facebook is having issues, but I can't confirm it 100%

jovial elk
#

@inland brook there's 1 thing i noticed.. that after it disconnects everytime.. obs auto change my stream key to something else

jovial elk
#

will do

#

nope, tried it. still doesn't work

#

my error is not failed to connect to server.. mine is.. right after i start streaming.. the stream disconnects straight away.. and obs attempts to reconnect

inland brook

jovial elk
inland brook
#

I believe its really Facebook on this one

#

and to be honest I don't have any ideas, besides maybe waiting it out

#

Btw after disabling the SSL for the RTMP server you did copy the new RTMP link right?

jovial elk
#

yeah

primal sedge
#

the same thing happens to me: c

void yoke
#

but how come others streaming on there?

heady nymph
#

I am also having this prob, any solution yet?

#

mine also auto changing to custom server

void yoke
#

naw no fix i dont think

heady nymph
#

damn!

void yoke
#

ye

sharp pollen
#

Does obs work? Is obs live the issue?

heady nymph
#

Same With SLOBS i assume is facebook

fresh eagle
#

hellow

prime hare
#

kkkkk

#

@fresh eagle eu vir olhar tambΓ©m

halcyon locust
#

Hey i was hoping to get some guidance on thegetting live. SLOBS is acting up so figured hey lets do this! just isnt working when i hit "start streaming "

harsh elm
#

So I was already using SLOBS so called 'workaround' prior to this; custom server input, yet this is happening to me now: discord notification and OBS running as if it's live but FB shows nothing and the link from discord doesn't show anything but a blank screen.

#

Btw I don't have an AMD graphics card, I have NVIDIA RTX 2070 6GB

#

Anyone there?

heady nymph
#

any news guys? has this fixed for anyone yet?

void yoke
#

slobs work fine for me on fb

#

its streamelements i bet ya

inland brook
#

@void yoke Let us not point fingers here ok?
You didn't tell us if you tried to remove our plugin from OBS Studio and tried to stream without it.

#

@harsh elm @heady nymph Please try and refresh your stream keys

void yoke
#

sorry

jovial elk
#

hi, do we know if the issue of streaming to fb has been resolve?

inland brook
#

So far everything i've seen yesterday indicated a Facebook issue

#

Did you try streaming without our plugin?

jovial elk
#

i think so too, cos i tried with slobs.. it's the same issue

#

i did not try with just obs

inland brook
#

One thing that might help is maybe resetting the stream key a couple of times shrugg

jovial elk
#

ohh? let me try that then

#

thanks KeiZar

harsh elm
#

I unintsalled streamelements obs.live so I will test it out here later with just plain ole obs and see if it works or not.

slow vortex
#

I had the issue where it wouldn't connect by just going live on obs all I had to do to fix the issue was use the stream dashboard on fb and start streaming on obs it showed a preview on fb and then i set the stuff up on the tab and hit go live and it worked just fine

crimson otter
real heart
#

@crimson otter Asking the devs for more details about this.

real heart
#

@crimson otter This seems to be a network or server related error. Haven't seen anyone else with it, so I'd recommend checking to make sure nothing might be blocking or affecting your connection to our servers.

crimson otter
#

10-4. I'll try resetting the modem

placid badger
#

guys how do i make my avtivity feed for facebook?

#

real heart
#

@placid badger Log out with the StreamElements menu at the top and log in with Facebook.

placid badger
#

Thanks man, im kind of blind xd

wintry karma
#

Any updates on supporting facebook like alerts?

humble igloo
#

Not that I am aware of.

wintry karma
#

aww that sucks

#

What about getting shares to work?

humble igloo
#

Facebook is working on it to give us access to these events.

tight orchid
#

hello.. not sure if this has been covered or not.. I set up stream elements.. but can't get any of my alerts to work with facebook.. shares, stars, likes, etc.. none of them are working while live... however if I click test on the streamelements site.. it works

inland brook
#

@tight orchid Sorry for the delay.
We currently don't get alerts for, likes for the stream and shares(highly dependent on privacy settings - if those are all public, then we are not getting it from Facebook). Anything else should show up in the activity feed.

tight orchid
#

Then how do other streamers get the alerts while in streamlabs?

humble igloo
#

This is the StreamElements support discord server.

tardy shoal
#

so if im logged into my facebook profile on stream elements, does that mean there are different rules and setting in the overlay editor? Like why are iomages importing at 200x200 even if they are 1920x1080

#

wait all 4 monitords printed??

#

and the last question is this: is there a way to make the menus on the left move up? I have like 45 layers and trying to sift through when only 3 are visible at any given time is adding lots of time to the creatiomn of this series ofd fundraiser overlays

#

and why is an image i resized to 1920x180 resizing and still having a green area obn bot?

wanton torrent
tardy shoal
#

hmmmm.

#

oh cause i fixed it. but the issue is the top gets chopped off when i do somethjing...it usually happens when i clicked on the transparent desdktop.....and then it pulls something down amnd i vcant get the top back into view.l.....theres no way to p[ull the canvas away from thje tool bar?

#

also, whats the difference between a follower and a suipporter and a star

#

and id like to give ytou guys a good shoutout for my studio fundrasiser stream./....are there any restrictions to me putting your logo asnd web address in a credits overlay im making

placid badger
#

did you guys know how to control the delay on facebook? i always have like 10 secs ok delay

#

of*

wanton torrent
#

Everyone has that delay, it's normal

placid badger
#

ok ok thanks @wanton torrent πŸ˜ƒ

How long does it take for your account to delete. I need to move it under a different email.

tardy shoal
#

I AM HAVING DIFFICULTY KNOW WHAT TO DO WHEN IONSTALLING OVERLKAYS

#

Add browser source, click link,.install link

#

add audio and video capture.

#

it seems theres a black shroud seperating me aN

#

D TGHHE OVERLAY PAGE IN OBS

wind sleet
#

why are you adding a audio and video capture for overlays?

add the overlays as a browser source and make sure they are layered correctly in obs.

also caps, not here please

tardy shoal
#

im fat fingered and have to look at my keyboard when i type. if i dont add a webcam how do i get video ? I know obs auto runs on default audio but i thought id rtried recemntly with out an aUDIO DEVICE and i had no sound,......yeah is there a GUIDE THAT YOU HAVE that can guide me through the opvery usage process.....dont the differemnt slodes trigger automaticaLLY?

#

OMG MY TYPING IS TERRIBLE

#

Im using obs live for the first time today...its mostly the same as the very familiar obs studio...but it seems that you can hand it multiple overlay kits and it takes them all and installs them? or automated things in some way>?

real heart
#

OBS.Live is a plugin for OBS Studio, which is why it'd be familiar. It adds some extra tools for monitoring and managing your stream right in OBS Studio.

tardy shoal
#

so should i open obs studio then or is ok to use the stram elements clicky thing

real heart
#

Either should open up with OBS.Live.

tardy shoal
#

ok ty

#

am i missing soimething here

#

ibve bee using obs for a whileand every scene that is currently active had to have audio devices in stalled or that scene wouldnt have sound ...did i missss an advancemetn

real heart
#

Uh. No, you just have "desktop audio" and it just gets everything on your computer.

#

Well, it's based on audio device (speakers, headphones, whatever) but anything that's set to play through those will play on stream too.

tardy shoal
#

yeah unless im doing my dj streams i just keep everything to 1 channel that thats i

What kind of Widgits are you wanting? Just out of curiosity

rigid dove
#

I have my alert box set up and added to OBS as a browser source. When I emulate an alert everything works great, but actual alerts aren't being recognized by stream elements. Do you know of any way to fix this?

untold void
#

also i already put "Gaming Video Creator" on my page and yet the system seems not intergrate correctly

inland brook
#

@untold void try from our dashboard

untold void
#

if i login using youtube , and try adding via dashboard , this msg will appear

#

and red notification also appear but i didnt take the screenshot

inland brook

Try and remove the gaming page tag from your account

Cleear browser cache and try again

untold void

okay

My stars and like alerts are working, but my share alerts don't work. Any fix ideas?

strange horizon

Hi team - just wanting to check in as I can sign in via my fb account and also my twitch account. I can't add either account to each other because they have two individual stream element accounts.
Doest any one know if i close the FB stream elements account will it close my twitch account also? - the JWT token and Account ID are both different but the email address is the same

#

inland brook
#

Which issue?

#

@untold void I'll have to ask the devs about this as I'm not sure

untold void
#

my streamelements cannnot detected my facebook gaming page

inland brook
#

I know - i'm asking the devs about it.

void yoke
#

i did what kara did on slobs and it works fine i think its stream elements problem?

#

or bug

#

or could be him

inland brook
#

I don't understand what you are referring to

void yoke
#

the page not found

inland brook
#

Show me a screenshot

#

I remember you having another type of error before.

void yoke
#

yeh ss of the error cakra has

humble igloo
#

Try to edit the page category to 'gaming'.

void yoke
#

its been doing it for like nearly 1 hour lmao

humble igloo
#

Never seen this message before.

void yoke
#

lol

#

i was doing this

#

guess ill just create one

#

cause switching does not work

#

now its stuck on this

#

nvm its working again tf

humble igloo
#

When I edit my page details I can enter the categorie and entered Gaming video creator in the categories field.

void yoke
#

yeh

#

question

#

how can i change my pages name

humble igloo
void yoke
#

it shows my real name

humble igloo
#

Then you made your facebook account into a page.

void yoke
#

rip XD

humble igloo
#

Select create at the top right and try to create a new page.

void yoke
#

okay

#

but if i publish this

#

will everyone see my name?

humble igloo
#

You should be able to publish the pages link/name without revealing your accounts name. Be aware that you for example cannot connect your FB account to discord without revealing your real name.

void yoke
#

true

void yoke
#

#

Hi,
I’m new here and i have a new page on Facebook for gaming live stream and it’s growing up fast. I have a question please:
I don’t have enough knowledge to create a overlay for my Facebook live stream. Is there a way to buy one? Or Can the Streamelements creates a new one for me based on my logo and my page info? If so who can i know please how to in order to get the details of how much and how long it will take.

Best regards.

having some trouble on showing facebook alerts on stream...

#

i used the LLAMA ANIMATED SUPER THEME .

#

the theme is working fine

#

but the Alerts are not showing up

#

what to do?

#

anyone having the same issue?

humble igloo
#

@grave wedge Is this for all types of Live alerts? Are the emulated test alerts coming through to OBS, when you have the small checkbox activated next to the emulation bell?

grave wedge
#

@humble igloo I am using the OBS live. i am not sure where is the Emulation bell or the check box. can you please guide me?

mystic ermineBOT
grave wedge
#

yep. this works. but when i go live. i cant see it any more. even people like, follow or share my stream.

humble igloo
#

are the events in your activity feed?

grave wedge
#

yes, they are

#

showing up

humble igloo
#

Best to log out of your dashboard and log back in to refresh the connection between facebook and StreamElements. After that the alerts should show up in your next stream. If not, please come here again and we'll investigate further.
Be aware that we do not get the following events from Facebook at this time (Facebook is working on it) and can't show alerts for these:

  • Shares
  • Likes on the stream
harsh elm
#

It seems that the alerts for facebook aren't working for my overlay..... not sure why either

slender cave
#

@harsh elm are the events on the activity feed?

harsh elm
#

Yes, I think I fixed it though.

#

Apparently the default notifications weren't working, so I changed it, now it works.

hopefully anyway

#

Hello everyone. I tried going live today and I had a couple issues. One of the biggest ones is that the key frame was at 9 seconds the entire time. For like 19 minutes. I ended up having to switch to SLOBS. The VOD of the streamelements stream didn’t look laggy or anything. Any assistance would be appreciated

inland brook
#

Key frame set to 9? Im not sure about facebook but twitch recommends that to be set to 2

#

I dont underetand though what the actual issue is after those 19 minutes and what happened

empty bough
#

Facebook is 2 as well, that’s what I’m saying. Stream elements was sending it at 9.. slobs ran the stream just fine at 2

inland brook
#

Our plugin does not touch any streaming settings(Output settings) - we have no business there what so ever.

#

Unless you can show in a recording that in the settings you've placed keyframe 2, but somehow it shows 9

#

to which I actually don't know how to do my self thonking

empty bough
#

Any options I can look at to troubleshoot? Also, is it best practice to go directly live in stream elements or still use the Facebook live on the streamer dashboard

inland brook
#

How were you sure that OBS was outputting at 9 keyframes before?

empty bough
#

On the streamer dashboard on FB. It was stating 9 seconds. I wasn’t noticing anything weird in the stream Elements GUI

inland brook
#

and if you go to "settings" -> output

#

what do you have there?

empty bough
#

@inland brook I am at work right now. I will check when I get home. Should I post in here again later?

inland brook
#

Yes

empty bough
#

Thank you, I will reply back when I am home later in the day.

#

Hello, is there a way to see number of the viewer with OBS.Live?

real heart
#

The setting should be in the hamburger menu in the top left of the activity feed.

deft karma
#

whats with this beta ingest server stuff? my stream goes live but it keeps saying opps something went wrong for my viewers. what gives?

empty bough
#

@inland brook currently my output is simple,3100 kbps, x264,160 audio bitrate

grave vapor
real heart
#

That's sized too small. I'm not even sure how you resized it that small; it shouldn't allow itself to get any smaller than a certain width.

grave vapor
#

You can do it in OBS

#

This is not Ground Control. This is OBS.Live for OBS plugin

real heart
#

I was not referring to Ground Control.

grave vapor
real heart
#

What version of OBS.Live is listed in the very bottom right?

grave vapor
#

19.6.26.414

real heart
#

Try logging out and logging back in.

grave vapor
real heart
#

Uh, just to make sure. Where did you log out and back in?

grave vapor
#

I logged out in OBS with StreamElements -> Logout
Then Login with Facebook

real heart
#

Hmm.

#

Hold that thought.

grave vapor
#

Ok.

real heart
#

Oh.

#

Well that's because it's not there when you sign in with Facebook.

#

Β―_(ツ)_/Β―

grave vapor
#

lol

#

So it's not possible to see number of the viewers right now then

real heart
#

Doesn't look that way.

grave vapor
#

What do you mean? Currently, I have to open the streamer dashboard to see the viewers for workaround.

real heart
#

"Doesn't look that way" as in "No, it doesn't look possible at the moment."

grave vapor
#

Oh, ok. Thank you so much. I hope it will be able in the future. You really help me. πŸ˜„

grave vapor

It seems there's a new update that I can tag a game for live stream now. Thank you so much!

Logout from our dashboard and login again.

it will refresh an access token

let us know if it doesn't show stuff again

haughty junco
#

it still doesn't show the latest feed comparing activity feed and the facebook gaming streamer dashboard

inland brook
#

We can't grab any missed events.

haughty junco
#

more in particular about who shared the stream though,

#

its listed in the facebook dashboard, but not in the activity feed

#

any settings I should be aware of?

inland brook
#

We don't grab all types of shares unfortunately.

#

If the person sharing has privacy options set to private and/or the post is shared to a private group, we don't catch that

#

we are working with Facebook on grabbing all the share events regardless of settings, but no ETA

haughty junco
#

I see, many thanks

#

btw, I'm a new convert, and wow I'm really impressed, its almost like I'm not streaming at all, CPU usage is King here in Stream Elements

#

Other streaming software can't match what Stream Elements has done to reduce CPU usage

inland brook

πŸ˜ƒ

next dome

True. Stream Elements it is a cool thing and usefull

I really believe that I may have the most low end setup of all the streamers out there but Stream Elements enables me to stream without sacrificing my gaming experience. πŸ˜ƒ

This is a private security token. Do NOT share this token here or other public places, only with a StreamElements staff member in private.

@humble igloo so I got raided/stream chained. There was no alert in stream Elements for that (in the activity feed section) the alert was on my streamer dashboard

I am afraid there is no option to show these events at this time in the activity feed and then as alert.

#

Is there any tutorial about how to create a custom widget like in the #widget-share or is it possible to show custom overlay integrated with specific games like showing kills in Overwatch or something? :3

grave vapor
#

For example, I like the heart beating widget there, but I want to use it for Facebook and use my own animation.

humble igloo
#

Afaik there are no triggers for facbook gaming so far. So the widget is only useable in twitch at this time.

grave vapor
#

Yeah, I know. But you can still get star events, so I just thought it would be enough for now to learn how to create a custom widget or just a custom theme for widget like stream boss or chat.

#

If it is not available now. It is ok. Thank you.

humble igloo
#

You can ask in the #dev-chat if there are any API documentations for facebook available.

grave vapor
#

Ok. Thank you.

Is anyone getting the thing where it disconnects and reconnects with facebook live over and over. happened about a month ago to loads of people and is now happening again for me

@heady nymph Do you use a static key? Try to refresh the StreamKey you enter in OBS. Also this seems to be an issue between Facebook and OBS.

small turtle
#

how to bring a overlay from the stream elemnts site to streamlabs obs

mystic ermineBOT
#

@small turtle 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 β˜‘ β€œShutdown source when not visible” https://youtu.be/KDvLynUqXI4

small turtle
#

is there a way i can stop the delay of the overlays with the browser source when switching scenes

inland brook
#

Delay, as in the amount it takes to load? @small turtle

small turtle
#

Yes or a way to make the load transition smoother ?

Oh so if I put just click the scene I want and have it peloaded I wont have to see the load transotion just the scene transition ?

Is there a way to bring back my chat window in the dockable chat? I accidentally clicked on a commenter's name and it went to his profile name.

Select StreamElements at the top in OBS > Log out and log back in with your facbook account.

Oh, ok. It seems I have to stop streaming before doing that then. X3

humble igloo

You sould not.

Eh, but I'm streaming. If I log out now, the streaming would stop, right?

If you log out of OBS Studio, yes. But the plugin OBS.Live is just for chat and activity feed. You can log out while streaming.

Oh, ok. Thank you

@inland brook when i do livestream gaming on FAcebook it pauses but the sound is still on

@inland brook i use streamlabs on a Windows 10 pro PC and on my Samsung phone i use sidesync

Hi, my facebook gaming account got placed in another account on streamelements site. how do i merge or delete it so i can place it with all my other accounts

inland brook
#

@fair karma What import tool are you using to import overlays from SL?
Also, the links that open from OBS.Live should open your default browser. If that is not the case, screenshot me what is opening your non-default browser.

#

@grave vapor I think it should be possible within OBS' settings.

#

@muted fox Is the other account owned by you? (it should be, but making sure)

grave vapor

I can change the stream server, but I will need to use streaming from dashboard setting instead. Thanks.

Probably a good idea to do. Enable it, then switch scenes and switch back.

Can you stream direct from xbox to Facebook or do I need capture card to do it

wraith otter
#

@white root likes, shares , follows sometimes they’ll show most times they won’t . When i first installed SE that didn’t happen.

white root
#

@flat temple you need a capture card because the xbox doesn't support streaming to facebook

#

@wraith otter i'm gonna defer to someone who will know more about it. I have a little bit of knowledge, but not enough to answer that particular issue.

also, almost all of the staff are EU so they may not be available for a bit πŸ˜„

wanton torrent

Exactly the same way you registered the first one if you don't want them to be linked

winged mortar
#

So I am using stream elements for FB streaming. Is it normal for likes on my page to only show up as "Fans" and not followers? I have gained probably 5-10 followers this week but it only shows 5 Fans, and 0 followers. This ends up messing up any goals that I create but its not tracking followers correctly. Is the facebook compatibility just not there yet?

inland brook
#

@winged mortar sorry for the delayed answer.
The tracking is highly dependent on the viewers' privacy settings and there is nothing we can do about it unfortunately.

Ah, I see you set it up for your Twitch channel instead.

I enabled it for your Facebook login, if you'd like to set it up there instead.

@real heart I might accidentally have 2 accounts

let me check rn

I think I might have signed in via twitch previously

and recently this month signed in via my fb account

is there a way to delete the old account?

Yes, but not a good idea while you have a balance πŸ˜›

pure kraken
#

ah so it went to my old account

#

one moment.

real heart
#

Yup, it's in your Twitch account.

pure kraken
#

maybe it would be better to delete the facebook account one and add it to the twitch account?

#

or would that make things worse?

real heart
#

Worse πŸ˜›

pure kraken
#

copy that lol

real heart
#

We want you to have Facebook alerts, so we need the Facebook account.

#

We should get you set up for SE.Pay in your Facebook account as well, cut off the other tipping page link, and get that account closed after you've withdrawn.

pure kraken
#

sure thing - almost done setting up the withdrawal

#

the "number" is that the street number?

real heart
#

Yup.

pure kraken
#

okay so I should ping you here or DM once the withdrawal process completes within 7 days?

Also had questions about partnership / merch πŸ˜ƒ

@pure kraken Having someone reach out to you. πŸ˜ƒ

Is there support yet for the !notify, meaning when they type that there can be an alert in the alert box for it? I believe I've seen some people getting alerts for it but worry they're using a different resource for their alerts

This is an option on the 2nd part the creation of Stream Perk items in the Stream Store

#

I streamed on FB live and now i wanted to switch to Twitch again, I put on the settings my account for twitch, registers it, then when i put to go to live stream, it shows me the tab for "start streaming on Fb"

real heart
#

Did you log out and log back in with the StreamElements menu at the top?

open raptor
#

No, ill try that right now.

#

It worked, thank you.

Hi there! Had a quick question about Facebook streaming set up.

#

When I stream, I currently use my Elgato software. To utilize all the themes and overlays available on Stream Elements, do I need OBS? Or can I run them on Elgato?

inland brook
#

Yes, you need OBS

errant glen
#

Okay thanks!

turbid pollen
#

wondering if there is a way to resize the overlays on stream elements to fit my screen better i have a 2560x1080 monitor so when i resize it the text and all that is small and hard to read

inland brook
#

Doee facebook allow widescreen streaming?

turbid pollen
#

works for me just have to change your stream resolution

inland brook
#

There is a small pencil next to the name of the overlay - that way you can change the resolution

turbid pollen
#

yeah i hit that but when i do it just allows me to change the size of on item not like the title bar and all the text sizes etc was just wondering if their was a easier way to do it or if you have to go through all the text

#

so like i would have to change each widget by itself i guess then right

inland brook
#

you will have to edit the widgets manuallt afterwards

turbid pollen
#

ouch thats going to suck thank you

swift zodiac
#

Good day! Is anyone having issues logging on to the manager dash board?

#

I can’t log in, it’s giving me a blank page

inland brook
#

@swift zodiac Refresh the page a couple of times - it should load - if it doesn't an extension might be blocking the load of our dashboard.

#

Is there any plans to have a raid widget/notification on fb? Along with an alert for !notify?

errant glen
#

Having issues streaming on FB Gaming through OBS. My streams have been kinda spotty all day with viewers pointing it out to me and the bottom of my OBS reading "encoder overload" ...any suggestions?

zealous shuttleBOT
#

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

errant glen
#

Thanks for your help!

inland brook
#

Provide a different log file

errant glen
#

Okay one minute

inland brook
#

besides the integrated GPU

#

I don't see anything else wrong

errant glen
#

I think it's fine during the first few minutes, but as my stream progressed it started getting really spotty. Not sure if my Macbook Pro can hold a stream together.

#

Unless it's settings related

brisk coyote
#

Anyone know why when I post my facebook link it shows up not in English but in what looks like sanskrit?

#

Now it makes me a liar.

inland brook
#

That is considered advertising your channel.

#

So, explain in more detail

brisk coyote
#

It popped up in English damn.

inland brook
#

where are you posting your channel link?

brisk coyote
#

My own server and on others that allow it.

#

That's the first time it popped up in english

inland brook
#

This issue doesn't seem related to our tools and features.

#

And I don't know the answer. Best to google "Facebook link thumbnail different language when posting in in discord"

#

or something along those lines

brisk coyote
#

Ok. I'll try that. All my other links are fine.

#

Ty.

grave vapor
#

Hello, is there a wat to fix the non-English text for tip button on the tipping page?

#

the tipping button text is mess up

inland brook
#

ooh

#

well thats not an easy fix as a dev needs to fix it.

grave vapor
#

Ok, I just wanted to inform this. Thank you. :3

inland brook
#

@grave vapor Unfortunately, the tipping button looking like that with numbers and syllables is because of a browser setting. Devs mentioned they can't fix it :/

#

its a local browser thing

#

most likely windows setting or missing unicode characters/font/language install

grave vapor
#

Well, then there is nothing i can do since each user might use different setting. Thank you anyway. :)

#

Ummm, by the way, is there a way to change the text then so I can make it in English so it won't bug?

inland brook
#

You might have to change your username

#

Somewhere in the Facebook page settings you can change your username

#

and you will only have to logout and login to our dashboard

#

and it should update

grave vapor
#

Oh. Thank you so much

digital birch
#

Hello, does stream elements now support like alerts?

inland brook
#

Alerts only work for the Page

#

and not the stream.

#

We are working with Facebook on that

digital birch
#

Ohh so when someone likes the stream, the alerts still wont pop out?

inland brook
#

Unfortunately, no.

digital birch
#

Alright thanks.

lavish parcel
#

so i have a quick question, im noticing there is a delay of around 15-20 seconds on FB streaming. my settings on SE are all the same i have with twitch in terms of having 1 sec delay for near live reaction/replying to chat. is there any way to fix this delay on FB itself since im assuming SEOBS isnt the issue? or

inland brook
#

@lavish parcel its on FB side and your connection to tgeir servers most likely

wraith otter
#

@inland brook any idea when that’ll be ready ?

#

Something weird has been happening lately , sometimes I get the alerts to pop on stream but now sometimes I only get the audio :/ ...

inland brook
#

@wraith otter Sorry for the long wait on a reply.
No ETA on when it'll be ready.

As for the alerts, clear the browser cache of your browser source

zealous shuttleBOT
#

@wraith otter Right click on the BrowserSource > Properties > Scroll down a bit > Refresh Cache of current page

#

hi!

#

i set my resolution to 1280x720 as output scaled in the settings

#

then whenever i go live, it goes down to 1152x648

#

it just randomly changes

#

how do i fix this?

inland brook
#

Where does it go down?

#

in OBS settings or the stream it self?

tulip anvil
#

both

#

as soon as i press go live

inland brook
#

I've never heard of this issue to be honest.

tulip anvil
#

the output changes to that resolution

#

ive been searching

#

and cant find any answers

inland brook
#

Are you changing it here"?

tulip anvil
#

yes!

inland brook
#

if its changing down when you hit live

tulip anvil
#

ive done everything, restarting, logging in and logging out

inland brook
#

then i'm don't know what can cause this as I've never heard this type of issue

#

@mystic dock any insight?

mystic dock
#

Never heard of that either.
Please do this for me:
Set your desired resolution
Do whatever it takes to mess up the resolution

SLOBS 🀒

inland brook
#

Thats...not OBS.Live or OBS Studio

#

Thats SLOBS

tulip anvil
#

first one's my setting

inland brook
#

Please contact SL's support about this.

mystic dock
#

^ we have nothing to do with SLOBS. It's a completely different program and they changed a heckton of stuff. Not much we can do about.

tulip anvil
#

Got it.

#

Also for some reason

#

I can stream higher bitrate in SLOBS but can't in OBS studio?

#

is it something with servers?

inland brook
#

PC specs and internet connection

tulip anvil
#

what?

#

so not servers?

#

i can stream 4k bitrate, no dropped frames in slobs

#

but in obs, 4k bitrate, dropped frames

inland brook
#

Internet connection - that can include connection to the facebook streaming servers

mystic dock
#

Your home > some servers > some servers > some servers > some servers > your ISP > some servers > some servers > some servers > Facebook

If there's a problem anywhere between you and Facebook, you can get dropped frames. OBS / SLOBS has nothing to do with that.

tulip anvil
#

How does it have nothing to do with the programs?

#

When SLOBS, I can stream 4k bitrate and smoothly, same settings. But in OBS, limit is like 2500 bitrate, can't stream with the same settings.

mystic dock
#

OBS doesn't have a bitrate limit. 2500 is the default value when starting OBS for the first time and skipping the auto config wizard.

tulip anvil
#

Exactly my point

#

In OBS, it limits my bitrate to 2.5k with over 27% dropped frames whereas in SLOBS, I can choose 4k bitrate and no problems.

#

I put 4k bitrate in settings and in FB, it shows 2.5k bitrate*

mystic dock
#

Okay. Open OBS (not SLOBS). Set everything as it should be. Stream to Facebook for a few minutes and get me a log and I can help you with that.

Note: You know that SLOBS isn't that precise when it comes to dropped frames, right? πŸ‘€

tulip anvil
#

Oh really? That's interesting then I'm more confused now. 😞 Okay, let me try it.

#

How do I get the log?

zealous shuttleBOT
#

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

tulip anvil
#

Do you want me to show you what Facebook stream data shows when using SLOBS vs using OBS?

mystic dock
#

You can but I trust my logs more than some analyzer

tulip anvil
#

Alright.

#

3 minutes

mystic dock
#

You didn't follow the instructions.

tulip anvil
#

Which?

#

oh okay

mystic dock
#

I need the link, not the file

tulip anvil
#

Sorry, my bad.

mystic dock
#

Yeah that's not looking good. You should start by using an ethernet cable. Streaming over WiFi is one of the worst things you can do.

tulip anvil
#

Alright, it's just weird how I can stream over wi-fi smoothly in SLOBS but can't in OBS.

#

I'll get one this week then I'll see if it'll be fine.

mystic dock
#

And I think I know what you meant with "OBS limits to 2500". OBS doesn't limit your connection. It's unstable and drops to such values.

tulip anvil
#

OOOOH okay I see. Thought it was limiting from the Going Live post Facebook where it shows such values.

#

Thank you for your help and quick response sir. I appreciate it.

mystic dock
#

You're welcome SEheart

sharp pollen
#

Any Apex Legends streamer experience in-game fps drop when streaming?

zealous shuttleBOT
#

@sharp pollen Since Apex Legends doesn't have optimized GPU drivers yet, it tends to take up all your GPU resources, leaving nothing for OBS. If you're having OBS performance issues, you'll likely need to limit the game somehow. The easiest way to do this is to enable Vsync in the game, or use a frame limiter. You can limit the game to 60fps by adding `+fps_max 60` to the game's launch properties in Origin.
https://twitter.com/OBSProject/status/1093974215877951493

If you stream @PlayApex and are having FPS issues with OBS due to a maxed-out GPU, you'll need to reduce GPU usage so that OBS can run as well. The quickest way to do this is to enable Vsync with triple buffering and disable Windows 10 Game Mode. https://t.co/FOPmDyJMNx

How do I get the !sr command to work? 😦 It's for the Media Request Feature. Thanks in advance

inland brook
#

@honest cloak Media Request on the left of the dashboard -> toggle viewer requests

honest cloak
#

Right, It's toggled on but !sr doesn't seem to work on Stream Chat 😦

inland brook
#

Well in general Facebook doesn't have chat commands, because there is no chat bot

#

and also me personally i dont even know how SR in general works for FB

honest cloak
#

Oh okay only for twitch I gues

#

Is there any other way to request a song? or nay?

#

if not I'll just forget about it..
Thanks again!

Has anyone problem with login? When i enter email and psw for Facebook login go to a new page for login on browser Facebook, i dont understand why

I can get facebook chat in obs live to show up where twitch chat normally is

@wraith flint I have the same issue, its getting passed over to the dev team

glossy bramble
#

@here hey acidentally clicked on some1 nick on OBS.Live Chat and cannot get back to the chat

wanton torrent
#

The way to fix that is to use the menu at the top of OBS.Live and go StreamElements > Logout > Login

glossy bramble
#

is it going to interrupt my stream?

wanton torrent
#

Should be fine

glossy bramble
#

sth is wrong after login in in first window

#

it redirects me to login for second time

#

and after login in in here it just shows my fb wall

wanton torrent
#

I'm asking if there is a developer available who knows what is happening here

wary fossil
#

i noticed with custom bot name in obs.live seems the page redirect after login is not grabbing the token from address bar...i would say something similar happening here

tight orchid
#

same issue is happening here as well.

tight orchid
#

Is anyone able to help us facebook streamers out? Since this update we cannot login to facebook via obs.live... it prompts to login.. once you do, it prompts you to login again, but takes you to your personal wall as if I am on my browser looking at facebook.... OBS.Live fails to grab the login and switch to the page like it did before... Uninstalling and reinstalling OBS.live DOES NOT fix the issue..... thank you

#

hi i need help

tight orchid
#

This 24/7 fastest support seems so great................................

inland brook
#

What if I told you that our devs weren't working yesterday and today.

#

I've poked everywhere i can, but the only thing we can do is - wait

#

Im sorry for the inconvenience this has brought you, but there is nothing else we can do besides wait

tight orchid
#

Then that would be understandable and a response of the such ... even if from a bot would be nice. πŸ™‚ ..

#

Amazing how a response of some sort is better than non at all. Thanks for stepping in.

hushed quarry
#

Why is i being kicked back to facebook login page when try to use facebook login in Obs.Live it work a few weeks ago but not after latest update

tight orchid

@hushed quarry it is an issue after the last update.. I believe it will be looked into after the weekend for the developers.. Possibly.. Currently they are aware is what another gent said.

Can anyone help me? My issue is the Display Capture and Window Capture only show up with blank screens

i was wonder if stream elements , has something like stream Labels from streamlabs

inland brook

@tropic tangle Run OBS as admin.

@feral orchid We do in the overlay editor -> widgets -> labels

halcyon mango
#

Guys i have applied for dream team but they rejected .. telling i have very less followers.. i have 30k

#

whats the minimu requirements?

void yoke
#

Like said before when you asked that question @halcyon mango there is no written Facebook requirement yet, only for either YouTube or Twitch.

halcyon mango
#

You from stream elements officials?

inland brook
#

@halcyon mango I believe we are not checking the follower/likes count from Facebook pages properly. I will have to tell our QA to look into this.

halcyon mango
#

Ok kindly have a look..

inland brook
#

The devs came back and said that the requirement for the page you used to submit your request looks at your Fans(likes), not your followers

vital mist
#

When it comes to the Tips and Stars goal widgets, is there a way to reset them for the new month or a setting somewhere I'm overlooking. It's showing overall stars and tips when I intend to show just for the month. Same for the "top star donations" list as well

inland brook
#

In the overlay editor -> data on top -> goals tab

#

From the dashboard -> activity feed on the left -> widget dat on the right -> goal tab

#

for top star - you can set it to session, week, monthly all time

#

if the widget supports it

#

if the widget doesn't have those options when you click on it, then you are using the wrong widget πŸ™‚

vital mist
#

thank you

halcyon mango
#

@inland brook BRO, TELL THEM FACEBOOK DOESNT GIVE THEM, OPTION

#

TO LIKE THE PAGE

#

THEY ONLY GIVE OPTION FOLLOW

inland brook
#

Please, turn off your caps.

halcyon mango
#

tell them this thing.. coz.. this is necessary .. likes not

inland brook
#

Thank you

halcyon mango
#

oh sorry, by mistake i did, i didnt wanted to be rude

#

and im partnered facebook gaming creator

inland brook
#

I'm not sure what you mean by "facebook doesn't givem them option to like page" when I can clearly see it

halcyon mango
#

when you are live.. and people watching.. they have to close the stream

#

then they can only like the page.. fb prompts for followers.. and when you visit a fb gaming creator.. fb will display followers first

#

even you can see that in the screenshot you sent above

#

@inland brook ?

inland brook
#

Uumm..

#

what?!

#

I mean

#

I can click on "Like" without clicking on teh follow

halcyon mango
#

only when you directly open my page

#

when you are watching me live.. there is no option to like

#

and the thing the facebook wants from us is followers.

inland brook
#

If people can't click on your name and go to your page and click on the "Like" then I don't think the problem is with us

#

or you

halcyon mango
#

brother, the thing is.. in fb everone wants followers not likes, likes are not the subscribers thing

#

its something extra

#

it only send live notification, on more priority basis.+
