Thanks man π sorry saw you were asleep/afk and didn't want to bug you π
no problem π
you can DM both tokens to @wanton torrent and say which one is from which channel π
Awesome π ty man π I'll do it in a few π
Thanks @proud steppe and @wanton torrent !!! β€οΈ
No problem 

@void yoke where can I find that ??
Settings > Stream
^^
That is on obs.live or on the website?
If your activity feed etc still point you at mixer click streamelements in the obs menu >> log out >> log in with Facebook
hey guys. Do you have any idea if why I cant change my OUTPUT settings? Im just new to streamelements
I want to use NVENC instead of x264 and I cant change it
start OBS as admin or restart PC.
OBS.live never seems to find my "live stream" to connect chat?
But, stream is live and streaming from OBS.live :/
eh fixed, log out and log back in :/
I was gonna suggest that, but you found the fix
π
Hi, I need some help
When I login into my StreamElements account with Facebook and want to add my YT and TTV channels it tells me that they are already claimed, but they don't show up
But if I login with TTV or YT they both show up but FB doesn't show up and tells me it's already claimed
yeah you made 3 seperate StreamElements accounts
a staff member can merge them for you if you want
Okay, so what should I do now?
@coral parrot Account Merging - Please note:
- Merging accounts only allows 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 you will be directed to DM them to a staff member.
i'll try to get hold of a staff member for you
you need to get the JWT tokens for all accounts and DM them to the staffmember that i will tag here in a few moments. do not post those tokens here
@coral parrot You can find your JWT token on your account channels page ("Show Secrets" to reveal the token): https://streamelements.com/dashboard/account/channels
READ ME:
This is a private security token. Do NOT share this token here or other public places, only with a StreamElements staff member in private.
I can do it
Is it possible to modify the alerts? Like modifying the sound and the gif played on it
@coral parrot in the overlay editor on the StreamElements website you can select the alert widget and change the sounds/gif
I accidently created a new StreamElements page for Facebook and when I use the Close Account option, nothing seems to happen. Can I still merge it with my actual account?
Are their certain widgets that don't work with facebook? or tricks to get them to work? I can't get chat to work for my stream right now.

@versed bluff Yeah @proud steppe helped me figure that out with mine. You'll need to wait for a SE staff but yeah.
@versed bluff look up the JWT tokens from each account and DM them to @wanton torrent specifying which token is for which account. He can then merge them for you. you can find the tokens like this:

do not share the tokens in this discord
@proud steppe do you know if certain widgets that don't work with facebook? or tricks to get them to work? I can't get chat to work for my stream right now.
that's a thing that is not available sadly
it has to do with how FB implemented it
the chat widget is only available for Twitch and Mixer, even YT has limitations on it
np
@proud steppe do other widgets work like showing likes/follows? or is it mostly just the overlay stuff that works?
@knotty depot Welcome to the helpdesk! Please let us know how we can assist you today and a support volunteer or staff member will assist you as soon as they are available. Thank you for your patience.

π
My steam comes out super clear
But
For some reason I still can't get my camera and audio to sync together
π¦
Question, how can you get the chat window on stream elements? When I click chat the twitch chat pops out but not the facebook one.
@graceful pumice Streamelements on top of OBS -> Logout -> login
When relogging log in as Facebook.
can i ask q
This is indeed the helpdesk channel meant for questions, so i would assume yes
i would like to add the chat box on my obs
how can i do that?
and other things i need when im streaming so i can see all the things i needed in obs while im streaming
Then click "Edit" on the overlay you want it on.
okay thanks !

how about in the obs app , is it possible to see the chats and other alerts in it so that i can no longer use alt tab to my facebook to see who's chatting or who likes my stream?
Then as I said, install OBS.Live and then click "View" then Docks"
and then?
Click the docks you want to show.
Theres a fix for that that is not on my mind currently.
Asking some smarter peeps, pls hold 
Try this while we wait for them to respond:
i dont know how to reopen XD
Nope not that one π€ HOldon
@elfin sand Streamelements on top of OBS -> Logout -> login
ohh
that works
oh wait
it appears then now its gone again
okay got it
thanks big help! π π

is there anybody who can help me merge my FB and Mixer to my Twitch/Youtube account in SE

Hi, I'm new to streamelements. I used to use a CSS code, in OBS, to show alerts from Facebook's Alert PopUp, which allowed me to display the user's profile picture.
Can I do the same in Streamelements?
I would like to show the profile picture, in addition to his name and the action he did
CSS is done in the overlay editor itself, with the alertbox widget, not in OBS.
Yes, I have noticed that. But is there any way that, using the Streamelements editor, I can display a user's profile picture?
Not by default.
i see
@knotty depot 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.
Okay π
I'll have to find a way to send it to myself and inbox it to u
One sec please
Invalid link. Try again.
CPU and GPU not strong enough to stream, not really fixable.
i5-2450M is a laptop series CPU which is quite underpowered for streaming
same for your HD Graphics 3000
18:05:27.058: adding 533 milliseconds of audio buffering, total audio buffering is now 533 milliseconds (source: Audio Input Capture)
πππππ
Theoretically you could add a delay to your camera of 533ms and pray your audio buffering stays at 533
Whats the cheapest gaming computer I can get for now
I dont normally reccommend this, but use OBS's Auto-Config wizard
I'll try it again
I see that Stream Elements records the activity of users including their profile picture, does anyone know the CSS code needed to show that pic in the alerts?
Hello Iβm having trouble with stream elements finding my Facebook gaming page
Hey just looking for some help trying to link stream elements to my fb gaming page
What is your problem?
Well I made a Facebook gaming page but Everytime I try to link it to either the website or to stream elements obs it says no gaming page found
anyone know of a way to stream to multiple platforms at one time for free? I looked into restream but their free account is so limited and their top of the line account is way too expensive for me at this time. I mean I suppose I could download my vids or record them as I'm streaming and upload them later but I'm lazy and really dont want to bog my system down with huge files
Iβm sure at this point Iβm just pestering but just wondering if anyone could give me some help with stream elements not recognizing my fb gaming page
Is there Media Request on Facebook?
my activity feed wont connect to facebook everytime i got live it says no stream activity
@wet needle Streamelements on top of OBS -> Logout -> login
Hi there, what's the downside of having my output scaled resolution at 1080p and streaming at 720p? if I change the rescaled resolution into 720p would that make it less demanding by any chance considering I'm running a low end PC? fyi enoder is NVENC and I'm barely using 20% of my gtx 970 while streaming, but my CPU is old and using 90% of that.
I have a problem, yesterday I tested the alerts for FB, some appeared on time along with the action, others were delayed several minutes, and then I saw that some did not even appear. (I was comparing them with FB's own alerts, to see how much delay they could have).
Is there any configuration so that Stream Elements alerts appear correctly?
@humble parrot Having your canvas 1080p and your output 720p is pretty typical, actually, and ideal for viewers with less powerful internet connections.
@tardy niche For the events that did not play, did they appear in the activity feed at all?
I didn't see if they appeared in the stream elements panel, but, they did appear in the facebook panel
Can you check?
At this moment all the events are listed, but I don't know if during the stream they have appeared on time in the list, because as I said, during the stream, the alerts appeared outdated for 15 minutes, I imagine that those that did not appear were going to leave much after
If they are listed, we did receive them, so it's likely a matter of how fast Facebook itself sent them through their API.
Anyone know if there Media Request for Facebook?
@coral parrot Yes, media request is available on Facebook, but only via tips.
@coral parrot Yes, media request is available on Facebook, but only via tips.
@real heart π That's dissapointing. Will you include a free mode so others can request without paying?
@coral parrot As soon as we can get a working bot on Facebook, probably.
Awesome!
@humble parrot Having your canvas 1080p and your output 720p is pretty typical, actually, and ideal for viewers with less powerful internet connections.
@real heart if my internet is decent and my only concern is CPU usage, would I get any benefits switching my output to 720p? And what Bitrate should I use if I keep it at 1080p while my stream is 720p?

Hello
Glad I found this Discord! I was having issues with OBS Live not connecting to Facebook Gaming and prompting me to login with Twitch. Simple logout and login fixed it, as suggested above!
Hi hi!! New here. I was wondering when facebook will get merch??? I really want to switch from my current provider to here...
@unkempt lion SE.Merch is only available on Twitch right now. If you stream on another platform please help us prioritize this integration by filling out this form: https://forms.gle/YQWtXcTN6ufq69318
Hello, I am relatively new to streaming. I have been having issues with my alerts and I am not really sure how to fix it. I have the alert widget setup on my gaming screen as well as my intermission screen.. When I use the emulator for a follower/subscriber/stream share, It works perfectly in obs and on StreamElements. When I am streaming, the alert doesn't come up and neither does the sound. If I select the replay option for an alert on obs The video will pop up but the sound won't. Can anyone help me with this? I honestly have no idea why it won't work and I believe I have followed the instructions.
Can an admit here please delete my Aud Chav Facebook profile in Stream Elements? It for some reason uploaded to a separate account, but I want it under the same account that I have Twitch & Youtube (AudChav - no space)

I closed the account, but it is not showing it is closed and I still cannot claim my FB account on the other SE acct.
Closing an account is not automatic, but instead sends a request for a dev to delete it.
Closing is not required to merge. Staff can merge accounts. Submitting a close request will only cause issues in the long run.
Usually by being told you can merge them, having them merged, and then a dev going, "oh look, a close request, let's delete this account and all channels associated with it.
Well, shoot. Can you delete my request to close, please.
I've looked up troubleshooting the alert issues and so far haven't been able to find anything. Is this a common issue and is there something I can due to fix it?
@worthy oak
@real heart Would you be able to help me with the issue with alerts not showing up in stream or do you know of someone that would be able to help me? Thanks
@dire mirage They're working fine. Check your settings in OBS. Disable Browser Source Hardware Acceleration in Settings>Advanced.
@real heart this will allow for them to show up in stream? Thank you so much I have been trying to figure out why I couldn't get sound on stream or the alerts to show up without me hitting the replay button for 2 weeks.
@dire mirage Have you tested it? Looking okay?
@real heart I'm still not getting any sound
Screenshot your browser source properties?
Deleting that first one, we wanna hide that link.
@real heart Thank you totally forgot about that
@dire mirage To be clear, do you not hear the sound yourself, is the sound not on stream, or both? Are you able to test this?
I cannont hear the sound on obs or on stream. I have been testing it in obs today but as of yesterday it didn't work in stream either. I will setup a stream on fb rn to be able to test alerts
Check your settings in Settings>Audio, make sure you're capturing the desktop audio, as that's what the browser source is going to. Otherwise, enable "Control audio via OBS" and see if that helps instead.
okay I will try that and get back to you thank you
Enabling the control audio fixed it. Thank you so much this has been driving me crazy. @real heart you're the best
so im on facebook, im trying to set up my whole set up again for obs, i found in streamelement's widgets section the latest/recent, what is the difference between latest and recent, it says no data but i do have ppl donating. i wanna set up where when someone donate stars it says there name on the stream until the next person does it then switchs to them then
Will an admin please PM me re: merging accounts? thank you.
@worthy oak Your channels have been merged.
thanks π @real heart
This happens when I add Facebook !! How can i fix it !?
yo
the facebook log in for cash donations has been broke since release
i cant recieve donations
this is fucking me hard
Hey @subtle flume don't forget you have the #dreamteam channel for support. π
Is the music not getting flag by facebook when they request?
Can you elaborate?
I mean when they request music, my stream will not get muted or shutdown?
Fb is very strict on copyrights
What shows on your stream is your responsibility. If you have concerns, we recommend enabling manual queue moderation so you can approve each request before it plays.
Alright thanks
Hello, on behalf of PicklesGaming (Facebook & Twitch streamer),
I would like to file a complaint:
Ever since we have enabled SePay on our donation link, our viewers are having issues donating. This has been costing us a lot of revenue.
Please contact us at contact@pickles.army or nordin@pickles.army
Thank you for your time
@real heart I am one of the main admins for @subtle flume can you please allow me to join the #dreamteam channel? Thank you
I'm sorry, that won't be possible.
As for the complaint - please provide more details and email us here: support@streamelements.com
@inland brookif I have him post that request in that channel perhaps?
That is what that channel is for.
@inland brook I am kind of his right hand, he is focused on the content creating and contracts, and me and our other admin focuses on all other things required.
Then I would suggest to email all details you have or want on the issue at hand to support@streamelements.com
SEPay issues are either handled by the AM of the DT and/or via our support email.
@inland brook > Then I would suggest to email all details you have or want on the issue at hand to support@streamelements.com<
Can you tell me how long the response time will be?
This issue is costing us a couple hundred dollars a day
Depending on the issue and the need for investigation.
I will email support right now with screenshots
@inland brook I will also have @subtle flume post a request in #dreamteam to give add me as a secondary contact
I already see that he spoke with my colleague in the channel.
@inland brook lol, yeah that's why I requested access, he's in Dallas USA and I'm in The Netherlands βΊοΈ
Can I ask that you stop pinging me in every sentence please? You have my all my attention here, so no need to ping me every time.
Ok, sorry!
Thank you 
I'll start compiling what information he has given in the channel as well and poke the devs harder on this as I see the issue.
The information you provide over email, will be added, as long as its helpful to the investigation.
Thanks for your time Keizar
Is there any way to look at my chat and my alerts but on my phone while streaming?
i have a question. if i use Obs.live request media music. and paste some youtube music i will copyright?
@frozen valve for facebook - yes so make sure you play copyright free songs only
@coral parrot you can still open our dashboard on your phone to look at the activity feed
@coral parrot you can still open our dashboard on your phone to look at the activity feed

Sorry, I just saw the room for OBSlive. I'll post this there.
Hi is there anyone available to help me out
Ive been having an issue when it comes to streaming to facebook to where ive been capped at 2500 bitrate and cannot stream to the platform
my roommate can use my stream key and my friend from across the US can use my stream key and have no issues but i cannot stream
!obshelp @APK#0001
For the best OBS support, please join their Official Discord @ discord.gg/obsproject
hello guys is there a chroma key on streamelements?
For what exactly?
i want to add video on my alert its has green background i want to remove it
No, you need to have transparency in the video.
Video editing software.
Go into its settings and remove the JWT token @vast ingot
Hello, i trying to sign up for tipping but for some reason i have only one option available and its paypal, i do have more than 100 followers and i do have bank account in US, it says if i don't see that option i should contact you guys through discord
@digital blade 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.
5e48e4c847ed06ba41182722
Based on what I see and sorry for the delay, you don't have 100 followers in our system. Do note that due to how the Facebook API works, follower number is not given by us by Facebook upon sign up and we never receive an accurate number.
That being said, since we don't receive any amount of followers, we start the count manually.
i have 368 followers before i signed up for stream elements
DM me your channel
Good day everyone. I have a problem when adding a follower goal in streamelements. I have 175 followers but when I add the follower goal widget, it shows 0 and the stream elements dashboard also shows 0. Can I have some help please?
@floral citrus the widget starts over fresh, so any followers you get from when you have that widget, count up, it doesnt track already gained followers
the Dashboard shows your monthly followers
However in the Data tab of the overlay editor you can edit the labels, goals and more
@red badge lol as I was typing that question you answered it. How creepy lol
I can't change this value as pictured but I can change it in goals tab. Is something wrong here?
You cannot change it - its not allowed
also Facebook doesn't provide us with a followers number
due to their API being closed off mostly
Ok thats cool. I should just manually change it in the goals tab then, correct?
yes
Awesome! It's a bit of manual labour but it is only once a month then.
@inland brook So for now only Twitch, Mixer and Youtube has follower numbers provided in Streamelements?
yes
Understood Thank you so much! @red badge you have Twitch or Mixer right?
since you are able to change that number.
@inland brook your logo is hilarious by the way.

lmaoo!!
As Im testing the follower goal alert, the follower goal widget percentage goes lower and lower. Is that a bug and if I get a follower on stream will the same thing happen?
its intended
refresh the editor
and it will be back to normal
well not intended, but a side effect of the alerts
Copy that and understood. π
Can you possibly tell me exactly which stats are updated regularly and IRL as opposed to the followers which don't update since it isn't allowed?
we count followers since the day you sign up with us
most totals should update on their own
after a first stream
but followers we count from 0
Alright I understand. I am now having a problem with a specific font. The name is "press start 2p". It works for some alerts but doesn't work for every thing. Other fonts work just fine just this one giving me an issue and I really love it. Any ideas please?
awww how sad. That actually makes me a feel alot better knowing that. Thanks
Would you possibly know of a font that is close to that one that works well please?
not really
Cool. I'm gonna try and search for a nice font. Which do you like?
@floral citrus The font was fixed 
@inland brook Was it fixed in the time from when we spoke about it until now? That is a crazy coincidence!
What is the difference between a video like event and a fan event? I don't understand what the difference is. If someone like my stream as I am streaming, then would that be for the fan event?
I was also trying to mix browser sources from Streamlabs and Streamelements but I think that they do not work in unisons. Can I possibly have an explanation of the differences with both of them please?
Should I pick one to use or can I use both and mix and match?
According to the internet: "A Facebook fan is a user who likes a particular Facebook page." so it would be different to a video like as a video like is liking that particular stream whereas a fan is somebody who likes your Gaming page as a whole
You can use both to mix and match but as you say they typically don't always work well in unison, this is why we offer all-in-one
Hello quick question, Im new here and was wondering why some of my alerts stop working on stream? I have to obviously double check Facebook streamer dashboard to see if someone shared my stream or not. I can manually refresh the new alert and then it appears live, but it doesn't always show the shares in the activity feed. Any tips?
ah I see. This makes things a bit more clear. I guess then I have to play around and see what doesn't and does work together. If it doesn't work well then I will stick with the all in one and I do like how the Streamlabs has everything integrated as one. The thing is that I don't use it because SLOBS takes up too much CPU power on my old PC so I was trying my best to use browser sources. Thank you. @wanton torrent
How do I test the chat widget in streamelements without starting my Stream? I'm not sure how to test it before going live.
never mind. I figured it out.
@grizzled oxide I am having the exact same issue, can anyone help us with this? I have remade my overlays and alerts 3 times and still haven't been able to get it fixed. I stream in 20 minutes so if any of you could hell that would be awesome
help*
I don't think it refreshes in real time if you use streamelements. I used a follow goal widget to track followers and the one seems to be working i real time really good is the one from streamlabs. I could be wrong, just what I experienced so far these past two days. Hopefully a mod has some time to better assist you with the situation.
Facebook is still pretty new to streamelements too so it probably still needs updating I presume.
I'm really struggling to get my alerts to run with streamelements while I am testing my stream. Should I sign out and sign back in from the web browser? I am also logged in to streamlabs with FB. Is this causing interference? Ive been testing this the whole night with no prevail.π©
Being logged into SL doesn't mean there will be interference
How are you testing alerts?
or you mean actual events?
First I select these setting and copy and paste in OBS.
Then I hit stream in OBS and this screen appears fine. I click the "Start Test" button.
And then I test the Alert on my phone by liking my stream. I cant share it, so I can't test that and alot of other alerts.
Liking your own stream won't help
and unliking and liking the page won't work as well, as we track that behavior to prevent spamming
is anyone able to help with streaming on facebook having issues
im having issues streaming when i click to go live it says it goes live but it dont and it also dont allow me to update what game im playing and a discreption and help
hey support π when i want to live-stream on facebook, is there anything different to twitch, regarding SE?
How to transfer overlays from twitch to fb (in SE)?
@blazing eagle Overlays can only be copied to accounts you have manager access to.
Or
@blazing eagle Account Merging - Please note:
- Merging accounts only allows 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 you will be directed to DM them to a staff member.
@marsh hare hey π I'm the owner. it is just about using my existing overlays. so as a owner, I can copy all of the twitch overlays and paste them into my fb-se-account, right?
and, thx for your reply π
You can send invite yourself from twitch and relog yourself with Facebook (without merge)
Follow these steps to grant managers/moderators access to your dashboard:
- Click on your Channel Name at the top of the dashboard and select Settings
- Create a new invite at one of three access levels (Bot Supervisor, Editor, Full Control)

How long does it take to close/delete an accout? I accidentally made a different login for FB instead of connecting it to my main account that has my Twitch and YT connected.
Oh wait... y'all just talked about it lols! Never mind π
@inland brook Can you please recommend another way that I can test my stream besides spamming myself? Should I just stream and hope someone likes my stream? I need to test the share, follower and likes alerts at the same time.
Should I sign out of Twitch and Mixer from my Streamlabs account too? Will this make it any easier to test my alerts and widgets?
@floral citrus You can test Alerts via the bell on the lower right corner of the Overlay Editor. Simply go to your Dashboard -> My Overlays -> Pencil/edit button on the overlay. Make sure the "Show Emulated events on stream" option is on to see the alert in OBS/Xsplit https://streamable.com/h6qgy
I'm aware of this test but I want to test it when I am live and see if it works when other people engage my video.π€
Can we escalate my issue higher up. I need notifications. My page is set up right to connect with SE! Help dangit!!!
@tranquil radish What is wrong with your page on SE?
Se wonβt find my Facebook gamer page...
Says no gamer page when I try to connect
can you stream do Facebook and twitch at the same time through streamelements??
Crickets....
ok, so i set up obs live initially for YT broadcasts. now i want to use for FB. when i hit "start Streaming" it asks me if i want to use YT settings, even after adding FB server and key.....
@tranquil radish are you trying to add it in the SE dashboard?
Yes- I just want se to recognize my streamer page. It stinks not having notifications...
If you sign out of streamelements and sign in using your Facebook does it not recognize it?
Nope- just says no gamer page found
Did you have a previous SE account by chance for twitch or YouTube?
So if you sign out and sign in using your Facebook login, what does it say?
Thatβs signed in with your twitch. I need you to log out and sign in using your Facebook login
I tried logging out of twitch. It still wonβt let me use my fb. Nor will it let me add Facebook channel
This is stream lane which I donβt want to use. But it finds my fb page with ease
So what are you seeing when you log in with Facebook?
@tranquil radish Please provide a proper screenshot with the issue visible. If not sure how to take a screenshot, you can check here: https://www.take-a-screenshot.org/
@tranquil radish I asked internally to see if anyone has some insight to what could cause this
@tranquil radish Clear your browser cache and/or try in incognito.
Will try that tomorrow. I have once before but am up for trying anything at this point.
Hello, anyone can help me?
how can I switch between my pages on facebook
I choose one to test things but I can't change it now
anyone knows a solution?
Hi guys. Need some help to understand following scenario.
I have a Youtube channel and a Facebook channel added in to streamelements. I use restream.io with OBS to stream both platforms.
But I have overlays configured from streamelement only for Youtube and these overlays configured to use in OBS.
So my question is, Do i get the alerts from Facebook with the above setup to show in my stream ? π
I see. So what you meant is, at least i need to,
1). create an empty overlay under facebook.
2). add an alertbox
3). add that overlay in to the OBS canvas
yes
@inland brook thanks for the help. I was struggling to solve this problem β€οΈ
Is there any way to add a chain notification? I've been missing a lot of chains lately and most of the fellow streamers think I'm just plain ignoring their support
Hey guys,
Is there a way I can duplicate a scene and give it a seperate overlay url?
Cheers
Tom
To clarify, I've already duplicated the scene in Stream Elements but would like 2 versions of the same scene. Any ideas on how to do this?
Thanks
I'm seeing error "Failed to get pages" when trying to login to Facebook to activate overlays in OBS Live.
nvm, it doesn't work on new Edge browser but worked in Chrome.
I'm seeing error "Failed to get pages" when trying to login to Facebook to activate overlays in OBS Live. Using firefox...
what the best settings to stream on facebook
Does anyone else's dashboard just display 0 and not show any of the actual data from your existing streaming fb page?
@rough nova yes , this happen with me i don't get any data from my facebook page on my dashboard
@mortal frost 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.
Test, test, and test again. We are happy to offer suggestions for any issues you may be having, but not a list of settings.
Hi. We are experiencing some problems at the moment. Our services are down
SE is currently down, just have a bit patience, they are working on it
We are back!
Anyone available to help?
can anyone help?
Hi
Why doesn't my dashboard automatically gather the correct amount of followers I have?
It seems to only show the ones I have gotten since I started using Stream elements, rather than counting the ones I had before
but even with those 2, Ihave to go into the dashboard, and manually fix the number?
2 being the additional ones since I installed elements last night
Unfortunately due to the way APIs work, we arenβt able to capture data from before you started using the platform. The followers number should reflect the current follower totals correctly. If you set a follower goal, that would need to be manually adjusted within the overlay editor >> click Data at the top >> goals
Ya, I set the data as the amount when I satarted, but even tho I got 2 more, it did not increase on the goal bar
Also, where should I post questions in regards to obs crashing on the gaming, not streaming, pc
Failed to recreate D3D11: Failed to create input layout (80070057)
specifically
Thanks. Any idea on why my viewer count has not gone up with out manually updating it?
sorry not viewer count, but follower count
Also, is there a viewer count widget?
Does anyone encounter a problem that there is a big delay for the alert box? Someone gave me stars but the alert box showed about 15 minutes later.
@rough nova No there is no viewer count widget - as for the followers number, Facebook doesn't share that number via their API at all - you can find threads on stackoverflow on other people complaining about this. We have decided to just start counting from 0.
Ok. But, if I set it to 56 at the start, and I got 2 more after I started, shouldn't that number have moved up to 58?
Depends. Did you get alerts for those 2 followers?
yes, but the number didn't go up to 58
I'll add it to the list for the devs
Thanks
does anyone know why alerts not working
Can you be more specific?
when people liking following my alerts not popping up
Please provide your account ID from https://streamelements.com/dashboard/account/channels
Once merged, channels cannot be unmerged.
ok do u know why my alarts not working
Your activity appears to be coming through just fine.
not pooping up on my screen i mean
my activity feed is not working. i uninstalled obs live and that did not work PLZ HELP
@sweet grove Streamelements on top of OBS -> Logout -> login
how can I see my viewers count in OBS.Live?
That option is not available for Facebook
as viewer count is not given via the API unfortunately.
Oh! I see, thank you so much
not really sure how to ask this but...... If I wanted to add a Win Counter using data from a text file on my PC would I setup a custom widget in my overlay online or do I just add this as a source in obs.live on my pc
if the data is on your PC, you want to do it as a source in OBS.live
also the video in the top bar of the Apex Legends overlay seems glitched
thanks hectic.... i had one setup before but couldnt remember if i did it as a source or as a widget
i dont know...maybe the animation is supposed to look like that.... just seems like a bunch horizontal lines moving
i have a problem, i have a SE acc with tiwtch and youtube, but i just signed in with FB, which may have created a separate account, when i want to merge my account it says channel already claimed. what can i do to unclaim it so i can then claim in in my other SE acc that already has twitch and youtube?
can you group layers together in the overlay editor?
Streamelements on top of OBS -> Logout -> login
it loses connection sometimes so just logout and log back in
@round wigeon
@sweet grove Streamelements on top of OBS -> Logout -> login
@zealous shuttle i did that
hello. i stream on FB. the problem is star donation text to speech. the speech start after all the alert animation finish. i don't know what i did wrong here. is there anyone have similar problem like i do? sorry my bad english.
This is intended behavior. TTS plays after the alert is finished.
okie. i thought i can set it to play while the alert animation still playing. hmmmm π€
can i copy and paste overlays between 2 facebook acc?
If you've added both Facebook pages to the same account in StreamElements, yes, you should be able to use the duplicate button to do so.
i tired that did work as it said alrady claimed
@tired merlin Account Merging - Please note:
- Merging accounts only allows 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 you will be directed to DM them to a staff member.
i genrated some link with full control and made that other acc moderator and then i was able to do it
thanks
Question around the Kappagen widget:
I set up a custom overlay with a kappagen widget (using the editor on the website, not the OBS plugin), and everything is working swell except for one issue...
I can't seem to select any emotes for the emotesplosion. For some reason, whenever I go to "Select Emotes", the window that pops up is empty. I was hoping I'd be able to pick a 'star' emote or something like that from here. Am I missing a step?
New to stream elements. Is there a way to multi stream like on facebook and twitch at the same time like streamlabs has
StreamElements does not support multistreaming.
well damn guess I am out
Hi guys, looking to start streaming on facebook. I originally had it setup for mixer. I am planning on testing facebook at this point. But, i made another profile in the client and setup the stream settings for facebook. However, when i go to go live it tries to default the go live to mixer when i have the stream key and service set to facebook live. Any help?
@outer river Streamelements on top of OBS -> Logout -> login
thank you!
I am having difficulty removing an account I accidentally linked by itself. I go through the process and and hit close account and nothing happens. No success or saying that it can't be done.
When you close your account all linked channels will be also deleted. There is no way to only delete one of the linked channel.
The deletion will be reviewed by a staff member within the next time and they will delete your account manually.
ok so I have to wait for the deletion
I accidentally just added one by itself, so yeh I am just trying to unlink it and put it all in one account
hey support-team π streamed on twitch over the last months, now I switch to facebook gaming. please help me to get my overlays etc. copied to my facebook-se profile.
can't choose "import from other channels"
Are the accounts linked?
how to link them? @inland brook
I can link the accounts for you, but I will need the JWT token from both accounts.
Do note:
- Merging accounts only allows faster ways to switch between them
- Merging accounts does not allow data sharing between accounts - different streaming platforms, different type of events
- Merging accounts allows duplicating overlays between the accounts
You can find your JWT token on your account channels page ("Show Secrets" to reveal the token): https://streamelements.com/dashboard/account/channels
or is it done by just adding a additional account at channel-settings-ad facebook channel?
trying to add my facebook channel, it says "already claimed"
Please read the above.
@inland brook may i send u a whisper with my jwt key?
My overlay is not working but the alert sounds are fine :<

How to sync your facebook followers into your overlay recent followers widget? It has never been correct so I tried to reset labels and now they are all gone. Is there a way to fix or did I erase them forever?
Noone acknowledged my question πͺ Did I post in the wrong place?
@hearty swallow what browser are you using?
@white root I tried in Chrome, IE, and Edge
Oh no. Do I just need to do Firefox? lmao if thats it I'ma feel real dumb. I almost went and downloaded but then i was like "nah it didnt work in the other 3 so I doubt it will work in mozilla"
asking internally as I was able to replicate on my own overlay
Same issue as HOBO. I've tried in Firefox, Chrome, Edge and have the same issue. Upon creating a new overlay from scratch and adding the widget new, it's even worse since it only picks random default emotes then.
I'm disabling the emote celebrations for now. It was literally spamming my RIP emotes when people subbed

Hi, I'm new in Streamelements, I'm setting up my account but I can't link my Streaming Page cause the login page only shows three other pages that I manage, Can someone help me?
What browser are you using and is the streaming page a gaming one as well?
I'm using chrome, the three pages that are showing up are not streaming pages
but are they gaming ones?
no
I have only one Video Gaming Creator page
Ok, so I removed my permissions from the three non-gaming page and now streamelements doesn't want me to login because the site can't see my Gaming Page
I logged in using my twitch account and tried to add my Facebook channel but it shows ERR_NO_GAMING_PAGE
Then they are not configured to be a gaming page
Hmm, that's strange, can i send my Gaming Page link here so you can check it?
No
Im not sure where to check even, but you can make sure to change it from a gaming page to a non-gaming
Ok ,btw my page is already Level Up approved so that's really weird
Ok, problem solved, I manually edited the Facebook permissions and only checked my Gaming Page, and it fixed it
hey there π copied yesterday the overlays from twitch to facebook, worked fine so far. regarding alerts: any chance to get the alerts copied? I only have the custom alerts right now, all my personalised alerts are not copied.
please help π
what do you mean? if you've edited the alert widget on your twitch account
and then copied that over to your facebook
it should work properly
i understand. but I only get the standard-se-alert for followers b.e.
yesterday, with your help, i copied my overlays from twitch to facebook. that worked. but, all alerts are custom-SE-alerts on the FB side now.
Ok - im not sure i understand the issue right now
they are suppose to convert from Twitch alerts to Facebook alerts
is this the issue?
as I understood, when copying the overlays, the alerts are copied with them. so the ingame alerts, after copying, are on custom-se-alerts. Yes, they are supposed to convert from twitch to facebook alerts.
what do you mean by "custom-se-alerts"?
when setting up the alert system, i found pre-crafted alerts for every kind of alert. so in my opinion, they are streamelements default alerts with default sounds
sry for the confusion.
Sorry for the late update @blazing eagle
It seems that in order for the alert widget to function properly for the Facebook events, the alerts are suppose to change as well.
If you have the graphics you can place them. If they were our graphics from a theme, you can recreate the theme from the themes gallery via your facebook account
ok, I dont really understand. in my twitch account, i used my own graphics and sounds. after copying that twitch overlays to se-facebook, it didnt copy the graphics and sounds. what can I do now? anything else than replace the default ones with my graphics and sounds again?
Upload the same graphics and setup the alert widget in your FB overlays
understood, thank you and have a great day!
Is there a way to use three streamers alerts in one stream we want to do a three person co stream from the same location but have the alerts come through individually on different source windows in obs
NVM Got it
thanks
Hey! I know it's maybe been asked but I've had good help before on the mixer channel. I tried streaming to Facebook gaming today, 720p at 60fps. Obs tells me 0 frames were lost but when I watch it back it stutters every so often, I also noticed it said encoder overload at the bottom? Specs are ryzen 5 2600x, 1070ti Nvidia, 16gb 3200 ram. What settings should I be looking to try to get a smooth stream?
@old lagoon 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.
Hey, ive been running into a issue regarding the Activity feed in obs live. My activity feed is blank and says "You have no stream activity" it been showing me the same blank activity feed since i updated the recent version of obs live. hope you'll have a answer thanks!
here is the result:
follow the green links inside for more information about those issues and read all the extra tips given
hmm, im not entirely convinced about those tips, ill try them but what i mean is that ive been streaming on mixer, twitch and tried youtube and none of them gave me encoder overload issue. Am i right in saying facebook doesnt support vids above 720p 30fps unless youre in the level up program or above?
i don't have FB so i do not know myself π
but i believe there were indeed some limitations
the limits are fine, 720p at 30fps is totally fine for now, i WAS on 60fps so maybe that was the issie, gonna try a test run the now and see what happens
issue* poor spelling π
no problem π
doesnt matter what settings im choosing, its just doing the same thing
Having an issue with a Facebook like alert not leaving a space between first and last name. Obviously in stream elements you just have the tag as (name) so is this a Facebook issue? All other alerts with the same overlay work fine. Will post examples pictures.
Help. Can't connect my facebook.
@magic coyote Streamelements on top of OBS -> Logout -> login
This? Or any another problem?
It shows to log in to facebook. and create a page
I already have a page and it wont connect it

Solved. Thanks though.
I deleted Streamelements permission in facebook and uninstall obs and obsstreamelements. Then redo all the process.

hey guys, im using streamelements to track my supporter goal on stream, but the thing is, It counts every sub, including resubs as a brand new sub. So the actual number being displayed is incorrect, and when someone unsubs, it dosnt track that and I have to manually update it each time
Do not forget you have #dreamteam for support.
Good morning - is there a way to show Facebook current viewers in OBS / OBS.live or even as a browser source please?
There is no way to show current viewer count for Facebook, due to limited API.
Ok thanks for the response. Any idea how Streamlabs manage to do it?
Ok thanks - it's weird as even though they can display it in the application (something I don't enjoy using) they don't support it as a widget that you can overlay. Even a simple browser source in a widget would work but I can't find anything
its up to Facebook - we had to ask them real hard to get specific event types as well after the initial integration.
No worries - everything else works how I need it to, just need a view on viewers without switching out of OBS
weird that they would allow one company access to viewer count but not another
maybe if enough users complain they will allow it
Hey, ive been running into a issue regarding the Activity feed in obs live. My activity feed is blank and says "You have no stream activity" it been showing me the same blank activity feed since i updated the recent version of obs live. hope you'll have a answer thanks!
Do you see activity on the activity feed in a browser?
As well to add the activity feed wants me to log into twitch but I use facebook and have stream elements sign in as my Facebook
I use the activity feed tool inside Obs live I've been having to use the browser activity feed

@white root any news/update on my issue?
Not that I have heard
Thank beno iβll set it back to default and see if it works
@hearty swallow I know that issue was brought up to devs and they were looking into it. Didnβt give an eta on a fix
Hello, so im trying to add a monthly star goal to my overlay and it only shows my stars as a lifetime received rather than 0-Goal
You can use the Total stars amount widget and add a /XY at the end of the message to make it a goal.
The other way would be to use a normal goal, but that doesn't cound down and you would need to reset it manually every month.
@humble igloo okay awesome im gonna give that a go right now
@white root copy that... I'd really like to use it, and now nothing is happening on the same events, so I don't know what is up with it
@hearty swallow Please use the Reporting function in OBS.LIVE
To do this, in the top OBS menu, please go to StreamElements > Report an issue
State your issue and your full Discord username along with any other details you think might be relevant.
Thank You 
Do that for me so itβs logged. Be as detailed as possible
Ah, I do not use the OBS plugin. Just a browser source pointed to my overlay that I've made in the SE portal.
@white root Thank you very much, I submitted the ticket π
Groovy
Anyone knows the commands for media request on Facebook Gaming?

Hello everyone. My alerts are not appearing in obs whenever I'm doing test in streamelements
@fallow locust You can test Alerts via the bell on the lower right corner of the Overlay Editor. Simply go to your Dashboard -> My Overlays -> Pencil/edit button on the overlay. Make sure the "Show Emulated events on stream" option is on to see the alert in OBS/Xsplit https://streamable.com/h6qgy
Oh!! Stupid me. I didnt notice it. Thank you! π
Is it possible to copy the same alert animation from a different alerts like for Video Like Alert to Follow Alert?
No, there is no copy option. You'll need to customize each type of alert one by one.
So not all my alerts are working or showing up....

How do I change the Total Follower amount to match my Facebook channel followers?
I checked on Data but I can't edit it
Hi. I am trying to use restream.io to multistream using facebook live as one of the platforms,but it requires me to include a stream key that isn not included in the settings. How do get around this?
@haughty scaffold Total followers as data is not available via the Facebook API, so we start counting it up from 0 the moment you register with us.
@cunning spear I'm sorry, but we can't help with restream.io - if you are missing a streamkey from them or not sure where to set something up with them, its best to ask their support.
Hello EB I Hope you are doing great!. I waned to know if there's a way to activate songrequest at Facebook Gaming? Do you know if StreamElements supports this?
I just replied to your tweet
Hello, i am trying to import an overlay from FB to Twitch but it is stuck in loading screen
@void yoke which browser are you using?
@white root i'm using Chrome.
Hmmm
So when you try to duplicate the overlay it just hangs? Can you try logging out of the site, the log back in and try again?
yeah it stays in the loading stage. okay will try as you suggested. thanks
The other test would be to try in incognito mode
it still doesn't work
Hmmm
Lemme ask
I have asked and once I have an answer I will report back @void yoke
@void yoke Please connect your streaming account (Twitch, YouTube, or Facebook) with Discord by going to β Settings and then Connections here in Discord. https://streamable.com/eg92w
Can you perform those steps so a staff member can take a look and see whatβs going on?
So my alarts work on my theme page, but not on on live elements or show up in my activity feed. Can someone please help!
@distant iron part the bot from your channel and rejoin it
@white root what do you mean?
I created my stream overlay now how to import this on obs?
@spice latch 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 βShutdown source when not visibleβ https://youtu.be/KDvLynUqXI4

@lavish kite 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.
Please follow the instructions carefully and provide a URL, not a file.
ok well then one second as i have to start the stream up again and get the log because ive been meesing with the settings and my last log will contain nothing
@zealous shuttle
@lavish kite 1) Restart OBS
2) 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.
3) Stop your stream/recording.
4) 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+)
i did that already. you dont see anything with the link i senty
what about this one
when i do auto confirg this is what i get
@lavish kite https://obsproject.com/analyzer/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fobsproject.com%2Flogs%2F29P9GmFDmnS77VXZ

How is this related to Facebook?
@vale viper If you are not seeing Likes/Shares on your current stream or page, that might be due to how the privacy settings of the person liking/sharing your stream are set.
If they are set to private we won't be able to see the events.
Specifically for shares, if they share in private groups, we won't be able to see the event.
where is it more or less do you know?
where can i take this screen divided into two parts and put it in full screen?
- #helpdesk-selive if its related to OBS.Live, which is a plugin for OBS Studio
- I'm not sure what the issue or question is here. You are using Studio mode which gives you a live screen on the right and a preview screen on the left. If you want to disable it, just click Studio mode
That's right, studio mode, thank you very much
you will see that at the time of clicking to record I must have clicked there and without noticing it happened.
more worked and thank you very much xD
hey there, I was trying to link my facebook page to my existing Twitch

@bold sundial We're not able to troubleshoot issues with using our overlays in StreamLabs OBS (SLOBS) as we don't have the tools to support their software. We recommend using OBS Studio or OBS Studio with our plugin OBS.Live.

@bold sundial 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

hi does anybody know why my streams are not making any videos that comes up at twicht, it only goes live. my girlfriends stream becomes a video on twitch after stream. can anybody help me with this ?
Twitch or facebook?
@sudden hornet You can find your JWT token on your account channels page ("Show Secrets" to reveal the token): https://streamelements.com/dashboard/account/channels
READ ME:
This is a private security token. Do NOT share this token here or other public places, only with a StreamElements staff member in private.
@everyone do you know how to delete and account?
@sudden hornet If you are looking to delete because you want to merge them, then deleting is not what you want to do.
@real heart I need to delete one and then I might need to Merge one
@sudden hornet Account Merging - Please note:
- Merging accounts only allows 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 you will be directed to DM them to a staff member.
Deleting is not what you want to do here.
@real heart so do i need to do?
@sudden hornet There is no easy way to unlink 2 owner type accounts from each other. The only way is to make a closure request from here: https://streamelements.com/dashboard/account/security
WARNING: In submitting a closure request you will delete both linked accounts and loose all data from both accounts. This includes overlays, custom commands, timers and past data(tips, subs, etc). You can still relogin with the deleted account, but you are essentially starting fresh.
You can't just delete one channel merged into an account. The whole account gets deleted, and all data for channels associated with it.
Ok so I might need to do that then rebuild everything
Okay. Then if you're absolutely sure, use the Close my account button in the link the bot gave you above.
When I do that nothing happens
just goes back to the home page
Ok cool
I am trying to stream to facebook but it keeps reverting to mixer. Does anyone know why?
@bronze olive Streamelements on top of OBS -> Logout -> login
wow thank you

@bold sundial We don't have a stream chat widget for the overlays.

No like, NONE of the alerts are going off. Streamelements is saying I'm not live but I am
I'm not seeing any issues on our side, so maybe turn off the stream and sdtart it again?
turn it off, logout from our dashboard
login again
and turn on the stream
Any up that can help with stream
Depends on what the question is @lusty mist
Is this StreamElements related?
yes sir or ma'am
whats the question?
Ill try to see if i can provide a fix or pass it along to any of the other support heros π
I start stream and everything is good but once I start the facebook live nothing shows up
it says fetching video but nothing else
@red badge
Is that only for you or also for other people?
Facebook has not received video signal from the video source for some time. Check that the connectivity between the video source and Facebook is sufficient for the source resolution and bitrate. Check your video encoder logs for details. If problems persist, consider improving connection quality or reducing the bitrate of your video source.
that is what it is telling me. I'm doing this for my stream, idk about any one else
@red badge
alright, I'll ask around for you
@lusty mist 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.
@lusty mist 1) Restart OBS
2) 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.
3) Stop your stream/recording.
4) 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+)
There is nothing wrong with OBS
Where do you see the above instructions to check your bitrate and what not?
are you talking to me @inland brook
No, to our Discord bot @zealous shuttle
oh ok
That was a joke
Yes, I'm talking to you
as you are the only one reporting an issue currently here
Update on the issue that facebook alerts not being primary alerts. I tried what was suggested and it did not work. So now what.
@jovial musk try to right click obs and run it as admin. That is what solved my issue.
@inland brook sorry I had did a short stream when you responded back. And there was someone answering me but he was looking for a answer for my problem. But I solved it. As for your issue I truly don't know but can look into if you want.
@lusty mist i will do that when i get a chance. Thank you for the input. ill check up with you after i do so.
hi guys hope everyone is having an amazing stream, i just need i little help how can i put the chat box to my obs studio ? i have seen several videos how to do it in streamlabs buy i cant find one in streamelements
We don't have a chat widget for facebook to show the chat on stream.
Hi! I cant seem to login into streamelements. It says "Failed to get pages". Any thoughts?
But im already logged in on OBS.Live
@spring jolt if you are meaning the website, can you try logging in with a incognito browser?
I tried it on a private window on Firefox but it still shows the error
Solved it by using Chrome. Logging into the website using Firefox does not work. Thanks!
@spring jolt chrome is indeed the browser where StreamElements is build upon
Can anyone Help me I'm Experiencing Something Really weird with my Alerts in Obs On Facebook
screenshot or explain in more detail?
best course of action is to ask a specific question so a mod/staff can reply appropriately π
Can any one explain what facebook mean ?

@void yoke When someone likes my Stream.. They Audio Alert i Set Doesnt Play Through the Stream. but i hear it on Obs.
okay Ill give it a Try Thanks @void yoke
No problem
I Cannot Find that Source @void yoke
So select your Game Scene and Click the plus sign.... there should be an option that says Capture audio or something like that
(i'm not at home in front of my stream rig, doing this from memory)
you should be able to select your elgato capture card which should be capturing your system sound
I can clarify/confirm in a couple hours when I get home
ok great
Hey @void yoke I Found it bro Thank you
oh cool. I just got home and was going to look at it for you
Hi there! My streamelements leaderboard is not working , no data :/
Hello all! Im having problems updating my software and obs will not show console gameplay
good morning, when opening the obs elements he can login to twitch but i do lives on facebook, how should i proceed?
@willow wind Streamelements on top of OBS -> Logout -> login
@limber trail just reboot everything. Happened to me too after the latest update.
@void yoke Hey Ed, i tried that last night. Still having probelms
Really? Try unplugging your hdmi cables and plugging back in.
Yeah, tried that as well. Tried different TV's, rebooting everything.
Anything people should be doing before reaching out for help, i have done lol
Sorry to hear that. Last resort would be to remove and reinstall
Just my 2 cents though
Tried that as well unfortunately
Wow
Its alright man! thank you for trying!
Im sure its just a stupid setting i pressed on accident
Haha@maybe. I do stuff like that too sometimes
Did you try a different hdmi cable? Sometimes they just donβt work
@limber trail one sec
here's my xbox settings for game capture. hope it helps
Which card do you have @limber trail ?
oof, is it that dated? lol
The HD60 is the second capture card they made. It does 60fps at 1080, but doesnβt do βreal-timeβ capture for streaming.
Xbox or PS4?
Verify you did that one
Make sure your Xbox is set to hdmi audio out
just all of a sudden
The chat link cable....
what?!
Had one, never used it
oh, its okay
not amazing
but it got the job done
so the xbox was fine, but then when i try it with the switch, it was only audio. After messing around for about an hour, i lost video and that happened yesterday
I know sometimes unplugging the usb cable, plugging it back in and then deleting the source and re-adding it sometimes works, but every situation is different
yeah, ive tried like every basic trouble shooting. Im going to just have to dig through all of the settings
what the card?
oh yeah, i was able to get video in the elgato software, but still no audio
Might have to reach out to their support as the HD60 is end of life but still supported
I added my paypal info to my SE account but how do I get people to send Tips?
oh nvm i found it
I'm having trouble with my alerts would love a little help
Good morning. Need help please. First time using SE for Facebook to help out my church. Page follower alerts are triggering the alert audio, but the alert image that pops up in the editor is not appearing in the OBS overlay. Any suggestions as to what's goin gon?
I think I might be having a similar problem do you stream to twitch as well
I do @lavish tree but haven't tried twitch let me see
@lavish tree my Twitch alerts are fine
OOOOPS dang I'm an idiot. I had the widget hidden. OK never mind me, carry on, carry on!
Hello There , could some one help me to activate the widgets on my Facebook stream page .. ? I've tried almost anything , but still cant figure out what's the problem so I've decided to write here a question
@frigid harbor 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 βShutdown source when not visibleβ https://youtu.be/KDvLynUqXI4
Hello - does Streamelements have the ability to do an alert when we get raided by another channel on FB?
somehow my activity feed for streamelements got disconnected from facebook alerts and it only give me the option to connect twitch to it, it works fine if i open ground control
but would be nice to have it back in obs any suggestions?
@hot helm Streamelements on top of OBS -> Logout -> login
thanks!
How can I get alerts from the same tip link but instead of twitch it is for Facebook is there a way to merge tip links to all platforms
@void yoke Not possible as the accounts are completely separate.
Hey! I am trying to close my streamelements account for facebook so i can add it to my twitch account that I already made. It is saying my email is invalid but under my facebook it doesn't even show an email.
