I don't know if this is the place to ask but can someone explain this to me? The follower goal is way lower than the dashboard goal I have setup but is also different from the all time new followers from when I started streaming. I'm just confused here which is the real follower count?
@small sandal followers aren't counted until after joining as we're unable to get preexisting data.
ohhhh that makes sense
so basically any followers from before I setup stream elements aren't counted?
correct
facebook can be so dumb lol
¯_(ツ)_/¯
Thanks for the explanation, I had no idea why it was different but wanted to make sure I didn't misunderstand something
Hello. I can't login to my Facebook account through OBS. It kept sending back to 'connect to Facebook' page
Uninstalling and installing the OBS LIve didn't do anything either
@sharp moat are you selecting the correct facebook page? If so, try removing the integration and logging again after that
Hello just wondering if anyone can solve my question. I have tried everything but my chat on my facebook stream is no longer showing on obs.live
try reverting to the classic facebook design, check the last pinned message for instructions
Hello, I have a problem, I just move to streamelements on fb, I created my overlay and prove my alerts on the website and all work fine, but in stream my share alerts are not working, it seems all the other stuff work fine but not the share alerts...the share events even not appear on the "activity feed" , can someone help me ?
Why cant i add 2 camera sources on 1 scene ?
check my last message
the option to "switch to classic pages" is not in the menu you show on the pinned message
then you'd have to see if facebook can help you revert it, our devs are still working on getting alerts fixed for the new design
HELP! We are live but Streamelements says we are not, no alerts, nothing in activity feed.. any ideas?
Sorry for the late response, are you still seeing those issues?
My activity feed is not working with facebook in obs or on the web...anyone help me with this?
Switching back to classic appeared to fix the issue
yeah, our devs are aware of the issue with the new page design
is there anything else yall need from me?
is the issue still ongoing?
i stream on faceboook gaming and im on the level up program and i can get the output to 1080 for my viewers
Is there a question you had for us?
Hi, Ive been streaming for more than a year now but recently my stream alerts are not showing/working anymore. I tested it on the editor and it is working fine (also appears in obs) but it doesn't pop up when I'm already live.
Check pinned message to switch back to old design
Is this the fix for alerts not showing? Or this is for the other problem?
If you are on the new design of the facebook pages
alerts will not work with us
we are investigating the issue with teh facebook devs, but no ETA and the pinned message is a work around
Thank you so much for helping me❤️ I'll test broadcast later .
does stream elements have a chat bot for facebook gaming?
No. They don't allow them.
None as there aren't any.
Hi! I'm having issues with share alert using streamelements' overlay. Streaming app i'm using is Streamelements OBS live. I'm worrying that the other alert i have will not show as well. But the reaction alert is showing. Please help
hey wanna ask something
so about 5 months ago i was asking around here to make my chat window dark mode
and now its reversed, its light mode now
anyone know how to fix it?
I replied with my account number and never got a reply my issue is still a problem
Can you give us a quick summary? There are messages over multiple days to different people
TTS not work was working for two messages but hasn’t worked since
Have you refreshed the cache of the browser source?
Yes I have.
And what is the result if you emulate an alert with TTS now?
I can still here it on my side but the viewers say they can hear anything.
Wait. So you can hear it, the viewers can't? Or the other way around?
I can hear it the viewers can not.
Then you need to check your audio settings in OBS
this has nothing to do with our TTS
How do i add chat bot in my facebook page?
You don't.
Then how do others Streamer have bot in their Chat box
No idea as there are none for FB and the closest thing to one is an internal thing that partners can get I believe.

@median plank To set your panels to dark mode please do the following:
- Close down your chat and stream information
- In OBS go to View > Docks > Chat
- Click on the cog, go to non-mod settings
- Look under My Preferences to enable/disable dark mode
- You can then reopen your docks under View > Docks

@final jacinth 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.
purchased an eye tracker and had it running yesterday but to pick it up, i had to use a secdond game capture on top of my primary game capture.
This lead to obvious frame drops, is there a workaround for this?
That's a very specific question, has nothing to do with StreamElements. Maybe the people from OBS project will know a solution
cheers mate
@brazen turtle hey man, i think what the bot trying to show me is for twitch
can u help me?
Hi.
please provide more details what are you trying to do here.

Can someone help me how do i add commands infacebook like poles?
Hi. I am having issues with the OBS activity feed not alerting me when someone likes or follows my stream. Can someone help me?\
@chilly carbon StreamElements menu, on top of OBS > Logout > Login
i did that and it seems to be the same
Also, the chat box keeps saying waiting for your stream, instead of showing the white chat box so im not able to see what anyone is saying to me or if they like/comment
I deleted my fb chat box by mistake. How do i get it back ?
Streamelements on top -> obs.live docks -> chat
hi quick question, i tried streaming on my fb page and it says Published by streamelements, how do i remove it?
Remove what?
its most likely added by Facebook to show how the stream was started and "uploaded"
if you really want it removed, you will have to check either your page settings or talk with Facebook support on this
alright thanks
hello i want to get some help with my obs.live facebook chat wont load and get error
@brisk jackal StreamElements menu, on top of OBS > Logout > Login
Alright, I did that And it still doesn't work. Still sending me back to the 'Connect With Facebook' page.
i have been trying for 2 days now to log into stream elments to my facebook gaming page and when i put user name and password in that i have always used it is trying to log me into an account thats not even mine and its telling me i dont have a page yet, what is wrong here
Hi. Have you swapped to the new design on Facebook? Please try to roll back and make sure you have a gaming page. This is what we need for the livestreaming on facebook
New design will be integrated at some point, but no ETA
i have benn using this platform for a year now, and now for some reason after i log out it doesnt log me into my account and yes i have a gaming page
Gaming page with the new design or old design on facebook?
The new design is problematic.
what do u mean the new design? my facebook dashboard?
Your facebook page
i have a new facebook dashoboard if thats what ur asking?? but it auto updated to that
Try to roll back with that guide.
when i try to log into stream elments to make my page linked with stream elements its trying to log me into an account thats not even mine is what im trying to say
Please try to roll back to the original design and try logging in once again. The login via facebook is not controlled by us, what ever facebook links to your credentials is on their end..
But the new design also breaks alerts etc.
So please try that.
Then you need to wait until we fix it. The login issue is on the Facebook end - we get the data what channel it is from Facebook
Anyone? I need help, coz my facebook page live insights doesn't reflect on SE.
The SE screenshot is for this month while the fb screenshot is for today's stream. I also streamed yesterday and it also didn't reflect on SE. What's happening?
I've got the same issue happened after Facebook changed my page to another type. I can confirm login in and out, resetting passcodes, and complete reinstall doesn't fix it. Broken link is from Facebook live end streaming elements isn't picking up when you go live. Hope one of us finds a fix.
By change to another type, do you mean you moved to the new facebook design?
Facebook Gaming released an update for Partners, with new API for stars and stuff, can you please update the link to StreamElements? We can't roll back the page without loosing our Analytics
@void yoke the devs are working on getting stuff working for everyone. Until that is done you either revert or sit as is until it's updated.
Hi I need help my activity feed is not working like its not updated. Its been 3 days now that I cannot find a solution. Thank you!
this is on fb activity feed yesterday
this is on streamelements activity feed
its not updated can u help me guys?
Are you on the new design?
what do u mean new design sir?
FB changed to a newer appearance and api that is not compatible with us atm.
They're probably using the older design.
ohh ok sir thank you! ❤️
I need help. Why is my share alert not showing during my livestream? Share alert is only showing during emulating or testing. Other alerts are okay. Can't find any solutions.
we have the same problem sir @crimson vessel
@crimson vessel this is what they said
Problem is i cant revert to classic mode since there's no option for that 😭
In my case the chat window depends on my "normal" Facebook-Page. I have to turn the Darkmode on/off there to get the same mode in the OBS Chat. You can't switch during the live stream.
@crimson vessel you can return to classic page settings
I am searching for a custom widget that would enable me to create a list for highest star senders and highest direct donations and automatically rotate these 2 lists in one spot, if I could get the code to do this I would be happy, please DM me
You need to select interact as page to get that manage button
i did sir @void yoke
DM
@void yoke @quiet drum I've been told a bandaid has been put on stuff so using new design should "work".
As I don't use or have a FB I can't confirm it.
can we talk in DM for a minute please?
Can't do much of anything for the above reason and I have no access to any pertinent information.
@white flax is there a staff member able to DM me please?
Hello, I am streaming to both facebook and youtube using multiple output plugin. so i want to see both my facebook and youtube feed on obs.How can i add both facebook and youtube activity feed while being logged in through youtube. I have facebook acoount linked to streamelements too. @white flax
Convo is also going in #helpdesk-youtube
@quartz river wish they would
is there anyway I am able to share alerts that were designed on my streamelements dashboard with someone else (without me being a manager of their streamelements dashboard)?
You get invited as an editor to your friend's account, then you can duplicate the overlay from your account to theirs.
"Follow these steps to grant managers/moderators access to your dashboard:
- Click on your channel name at the top of the dashboard
- Create a new invite at one of three access levels (Bot Supervisor, Editor, Full Control)
- Send this invite to a mod/manager to give them access to your dashboard. The link is one-time-use and expires after 72 hours if not accepted

ok thank you
Hi all.. so since Facebook Gaming Page has new features, the API link with SE is broken, however page likes, Supporter still show up, all other Facebook linked features (notifications, Stars, Stream Analytics) are not!
integration with the new page design is being fixed, we suggest reverting to the classic version until everything is fully functional with the new pages
We can't, our Analytics would be messed up👍🏼 thanks for answering
Hi! I'm a streamer at fbgg, and today i wasnt able to stream. My internet connection is completely fine, i don't have any issues in games, discord, seeing other livestreams, but when i open live in OBS it just oscillates a lot. I have already tried other facebook servers, rather than the default one, but still, the same problem. Can someone help me?
That would be something to ask the OBS discord https://discord.gg/obsproject
thank you ❤️
I'm not sure what they did i had a request to accept Facebook moving the stream page to a new version but not sure what they are technically calling it. All i know is when i went to stream the Facebook live page is harder to deal with making sharing harder having to swap profiles. The usual Facebook deal making things harder and more useless and this breaking the link to stream elements as well i think.
Is facebook a good way to go live?
Did you work it out Noel you definitely have to revert go into your Facebook stream page in its admin profile probably named the same add your page and head to the three dots and hit switch to classic pages. Worked for me.
SO I am having issues with setting up the stream. I had orginally linked everything to youtube. now I want to stream on FB. I've gone through the settings and put in the new stream key for fb live and switched it to fb live. When I hit apply and then hit start streaming, it goes back to YT. How do I fix this?
In OBS.Live - top menu - StreamElements - Logout
The docks in OBS.Live are still connected to Youtube, even tho you changed the stream settings.
Thank you so much!
you are amazing!
Is it fixed guys about the activity feed not updating?
Are you on the classic or new design?
I think new sir
Im not really sure sir. I dont know where to check if its new or classic
If you try the instructions pinned in here do you have that option?
So i have my YouTube account and my Facebook live account linked to Stream elements. but i only get the bot chat settings under YouTube..is their a way to have this under my Facebook settings as well?
No. They do not allow bots.
thank you!
i dont have sir

what happened with you
Since I can't look at what might be misbehaving I passed it along to staff and waiting for a response. Unfortunately it might be after I head to bed as I'm working tonight.
I really worked hard on the donations videos , music all day and night for it...
I would be so happy if It work without having problems cuz stream elements is totally perfect !

hey how to delete associated facebook account from SL
@merry blade 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, all linked channels within the account will be deleted and you will lose all associated data. This includes overlays, custom commands, timers and past data (tips, subs, etc). You can still reconnect with the deleted account, but you are essentially starting fresh.
Hey lovelies.
I cant handle streamlabs with Facebook. Is atreamelements functional with Facebook? I tried before and streamelemebts wouldn't recognize that I was live
The new Facebook design is currently have issues with our services, but the classic version is working.
@topaz cairn when did you last go live?
@sacred nymph am I able to switch between thr 2?
@quiet lagoon with SE? About 3 days ago. It just would not load snything... so I had to use streamlabs.... and I am crying. Jard...
Are you on the new design by chance?
Live Chat seems to get worse & worse by the week with Facebook Gaming. Any chance there's a fix coming or an update? Throughout a four hour stream it often doesn't work or shows up for the last 30 minutes or so. @white flax
you can revert back to the classic page design as a temporary fix
This has been going on for a few weeks and I don't believe I'm on the new page design yet
Hello everyone, i'm working on the stream page of a team of my University, everything is ok but i can't link the team's paypal with StreamElements, can someone help me pls? Ty
Put the email in the spot for tipping settings then hit connect.
I did that but it doesn't connect, just says ''Saving'' and does nothing
is it an actual email and not a link?
Yes, the email
I have to say that before I started setting up their stream and all this stuff, the team linked that PayPal account with StreamLabs, dunno if that is relevant but I have already disconnected it
I keep on going back here when i Log in to my Facebook account. anyone with the same issue? or anyone that can help me with my prob 😦
@unborn axle Please logout of StreamElements at https://streamelements.com/logout and then login again to your account (Twitch/YouTube/Facebook).

DO you have a gaming page and is your main FB account an admin/owner of it?
I have the exact same problem as lolodi
I tried the logout link, even logged out and in of the facebook account

i have a general user account* who is owner of the gaming page

@long cypress 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.
Hey everyone I am having issues with my alerts, in my stream they dont have sound, i hear them when they pop out of my desktop audio, but my chat in my stream cant hear them, they do appear but they dont have sound, does anyone know what is going on or how to fix it? thank you
@sharp apex If you are not hearing your alerts and/or Media Request, you are most likely using the Control Audio via OBS option in your browser source properties.
To make sure you hear the alerts and the stream also hears them, follow along the screenshot bellow.

I cant seem to go live on my channel. it refuses to connect to my page.
@slow grove StreamElements menu, on top of OBS > Logout > Login
star alerts arent working
I had a docked bar down the left which allowed me to change my stream title etc before going live. i accidentally closed it and i can't find it anywhere. not in the docks dropdown either
Top Menu - StreamElements - OBS.Live docks - Activity feed. This applies to OBS.Live - the function is integrated into the activity feed.
not all heroes wear capes. Thanks 🙂
Can you not connect the streamelements bot to facebook? its not letting me do it.
there is not chatbot for facebook
That's what I have been guessing. Thanks! 😊
@slim finch Welcome to the helpdesk! Please let us know how we can assist you today and a support volunteer or staff member will assist you as soon as they are available. Thank you for your patience.
I was able to play the alert if I run it to Streamelements but if someone like the video the alert is not working at all
@slim finch 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.
Hello! How come I cannot pull up data into stream elements from my Facebook page? (i.e. Latest share, stars, etc.) It can only pull up latest follower.
Appreciate your help. Thank you so much!

I'll report this to our devs
Thank you very much. I really appreciate it.
we've had some issues with the new facebook design lately, if you want a quick fix reverting back to the classic version should work
I even uninstalled and reinstalled OBS with no luck.
I can do that??

Awesome thank you! Im going to try it now.
That worked! Chat works on the classic mode. Thank you very much!

Hello i have so much lag when i did my live stream on Facebook, and i have a good setup up and connection too i don't know why can you help me please ? Thank you
hey, by lag do you mean dropped frames?
yes exactly
@clear pulsar Dropped Frames means that you have a bad connection between your device and the streaming platform and most likely something related to your ISP not handling the connection properly.
Speed tests usually cannot help solve this problem and its best to use this guide: https://obsproject.com/wiki/Dropped-Frames-and-General-Connection-Issues
If you stream to twitch, use the !twitchtest command and do a connection test to your regional servers.
Hi i have trouble connecting my FB Page to stream elements, " Failed%20to%20get%20facebook%20profile#= "
hi guys! I'm having issues with my streamelements as well! It just keeps going back here after login 😦
why Rainbow Six: Siege Vulkan isn't showing in my stream even its already set for it?
Our developers deployed a small fix, can you try to log in again?
Same here, please try to log in again now.
already set the r6 vulkan on sources but its not showing in the screen, what can i do to fix this?
but if i choose the normal Siege not the vulkan it is showing in the Activity Screen
hi CryonicTV! Thank you so much for the effort! I tried to log in again, but it still loops back to that same screen that I sent you guys. I tried logging in on the browser (google chrome), and it works. 😦 a little bit weirded out.
Tried the following too:
- Reinstalling streamelements
- restarting pc
So in the browser the login works, but not in OBS.Live?
Our developers are currently working on that, but let me forward that information. We might need your help to diagnose the issue.
okay i can stay to help out
Please stay around, i will check internally what we can do
got it! will be on standby
Developer can't replicate the issue. Can you restart OBS.Live and test?
alright, hold on
okay now it works. here's what I did:
I opened streamelements obs live, it still appeared the same, cant log in.
then i opened another instance of obs, got prompted that obs is already running, and i just clicked "launch anyway". now i have two obs windows open.
weirdly enough, the second one works. i closed the first and then i get another issue:
this now pops up on my activity feed after what i did
@brazen turtle
You can click the button to log in for the activity feed
did it now, now it says: "Timeout waiting for command: menu-service-background-worker:events:report:loaded"
mh.
please to restart OBS.Live again
After restarting:
Timeout waiting for command: menu-service-background-worker:events:report:loaded
- clicks "connect with facebook"
- clicks "continue with previous settings"
Gets:
Timeout waiting for command: menu-service-background-worker:events:report:loaded
Argh. Will forward to the developer, hang on for a bit
thank you!
Let's try to log out and log back into OBS.live. Top menu: StreamElements > Logout.
did it, it wont let me log back in now
it just loops here
Ok, checking with developers again
apologies with the trouble sir
Nah we need to fix that, we just deployed a fix for the login today related to Facebook
so we want to make sure that everything works
thank you!!
Can you try that?
close OBS.Live
remove the folder %appdata%\obs-studio\plugin_config\obs-browser
restart OBS.Live
alright will try
woaaaaaaaah this actually worked! what's the explanation to this?
Well we removed some old stuff that was stuck
appreciate the time and effort to help! thank you so much!
how to joina partner program
https://streamelements.com/dreamteam
Check the requirements on that page please.
So facebook obs is not grabbing all the comments or share notifications
hello, why is it very blurry when i stream on facebook?
our devs have made some improvements to the facebook integration but some things are still work in progress, like sharing notifications
I appreciate the work the developers do. However it's so frustrating when people come into a stream and feel like they are being ignored because, it didn't show up.
you can try reverting back to the classic facebook page design for a temporary fix
how can I use the bot for reading alert?
We don't have a chatbot for FB
thanks
hello can I ask how can I link obs studious to my fb page?
You mean OBS itself, so that you can stream to FB? Go to Settings -> Stream.
If you mean OBS.live, if you're logged into another account already, just log out through the StreamElements menu at the top and log in again as your FB account.
help was about to go live as usual and my activity feed is saying session expired and also not getting prompt anymore for stream title and description????????
have you tried to log out and login?
just now yes and that worked sorry was in a mad panic lol
all good 🙂
thank you! its oaky now
help
is still stream elements is not updating my activity feed
I have gotten locked out of my FB account shortly after going LIVE on OBS with Stream Elements ssssoooo many times now. Shortly after going LIVE, within the first minute or two, FB will say they "notice suspicious activity from my account" and lock it, requiring me to stop the stream and reset my FB password.
Is this a known issue with Stream Elements? Is there something I can do to stop this from happening? It has made it almost impossible to stream now... Thanks in advance for any help.
Good day! Just want to ask something about streamelements with facebook. I think I messed up my sync settiings. So my page likes goes to the Fan count and my Page follows go to the followers count. My problem is it does not sync together, I keep on updating the goals and session data to my pages current like (fan) and follow counts. I think it started messing up when I clicked on several buttons like the reset session which I cant understand. Even the auto session reset button. I just want to know how to fix this cause every time a check my stream elements offline and I do test streams from time to time to check if it updates and it doesnt. Thank you
this is the first time I hear this, you can try removing the streamelements integration from your facebook account and giving it perms again
session data will reset a few minutes after each stream
Thank you! Will try removing and permitting it again
i wanted to link my facebook account with twitch, but he created another account instead of linking how to solve?
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
Streamelements wont allow me to stream to FB @ 1080p, only 720p Any idea why? I am a level-up member and have streamed @ 1080p for the past year without an issue.
we don't have those kinds of limitations, that's something on facebook end so try reaching out to their support to see why they are limiting your res
This is what streamelements is showing me
thats weird, you should have the option to manually edit that field
Sooo how do I fix that?
whats your obs.live version? you can see it in the bottom right corner of obs
21.3.8.729
I was out of town for about 4 days and when i try to stream through OBS studio it said that my stream key was expired... so i just went to facebook re-copied it and put it back in obs settings..... The issue is when i press "start streaming" OBS used to give me an option to put the stream title and stuff before the actual stream would start, but now it just goes live without putting anything... How do i fix that?
Why’s this telling me to stream @ 720...
Are you in the Level Up program? If not that's why.
Quick question. The fans in streamelements are the actual likes of the page right? and the followers are the ones of course following the stream, am i right?
Does anyone else having issues with Stream reports not being emailed?
anyone having issues with facebook chat now showing in streamelements recently?
my chat doesnt appear ever since the update of facebook gaming's creator studio thingy
Sometime it happens, for a variety of reasons. Has it been happening for a while? If so, email us your account ID and email address at support@streamelements.com and we'll look into it.
helloo, my stream chat is not showing the chat even tho ive put it on obs and on the stream element
can anyone help
same problem
thank you, anyone knows the problem
what about your last member and recent subs?
i dont have those kinds of overlay
i dont have that option
thank you! it worked
Hi!, can you help me how to view my live viewer count ?
it only shows me this, it doesnt give me option
please help T_T
i tried researching ang it should show 3 line beside the "Activity Feed" to enable/disable view counter but mine doesnt
viewer count is not visible for facebook, it will only be displayed on twitch streams
I have a similar issue with the looping of the login screen as described above, i deleted the obs-browser folder inside of my app data folder. One possible difference is I have 2 facebook gaming accounts signed up. It will let me log into the first one, but every time I choose the 2nd page it continually loops.
try removing the integration for that second page, from the facebook side
Yea, I am. Have been for a year. Been streaming at 1080 for a year up until last month it randomly limits to 720p. Fb says it’s a streamelements issue.
have you tested using regular obs studio?
I had to remove the integration all together and then re-add but seems to be working fine now, Thank You!
This error pops up when selecting fb live. My stream to twitch works just fine @ 1080p

My stream hours on fb was not counted but it does appear on SE. I was wondering if they have a clash or did I miss something here? This is my second page that happened. The first one had the same problem too. sorry if its not related.
Complete noob to streamelements, I linked my Facebook account and on the dashboard it says Zero Followers. I haven't gone live yet with the new addon "OBS.live", but I have tried doing a test and still see Zero followers. I have a Nerd Or Die Overlay pack and everything is all setup due to me using OBS Studios prior to Elements, how do you change the alerts? I'm used to using Streamlabs and Streamlabels. I've searched, and can only find stuff mostly for Twitch.
@chilly seal Followers are only tracked after connection as there is no way to retroactively retrieve the count prior.
Ok I can deal with that. How do I customize my alerts like with StreamLabs I can add custom Gifs and Custom sounds.

@merry bear You can test alerts via the Emulate bell on the lower left side of the Overlay Editor. Simply go to your Dashboard > My Overlays > pencil/edit button on the overlay. Make sure the Preview LIVE on stream option is on to see the alert in OBS/XSplit** https://streamable.com/vtulg9

Hey I had a question if anyone could help me
I'm trying to add my latest follower label, but when I go to the follower label the only pop out is for follower goal.
Thank you!
we don't have a label for latest follower for facebook 
Darn, that planned for a future update?
I can work around by pulling a stream label from stream labs so its not a huge deal.
I cant fix the black screen when I use game capture or window capture. How do i fix it definitely?

Hello! So, I'm trying to transfer from streaming on Twitch to Facebook. I've successfully swapped the notifications, but it looks like the activity feed and the chat window are both still set to Twitch. How do I go about changing these to view Facebook?
@lost belfry StreamElements menu, on top of OBS > Logout > Login
That was it! Thank you!!
For some reason my Stream elements is not connected to my page anymore?
I was disconnected yesterday and not sure what to do
How do I take an alert box I created while signed into one page and copy it over to another page I own?
Are the accounts merged together under 1 SE account?
See this! #helpdesk-selive message
Hi All, just seeing if there is a way to unlink a channel and then relink it with a different account? Also is there a way to share/copy overlays to a different channel that has "already been claimed"
that's unfortunately not possible, do you have two accounts with 4 channels or something along these lines?
Yes something like that. two accounts and three pages. Two of the pages are on one account and one page is on the other
we can merge those accounts, or try to at least
That would be great
DM me the JWT tokens for both those accounts, I'll see what I can do
Will it keep the overlays for both channels?
Yup
Shoutout to @void yoke for being a legend. Mad respect to you.

is anyone else experiencing delayed notification and missing data <shares, video likes, etc> in the SE + Facebook integration?
Hello, I notice that the monthly top star giver doesn't reset at the beginning of the month. My client is asking me to reset. I have looked through the widget data area and cannot find where to reset this particular one. Also am a little disappointed that it is clearly may 2nd and it doesn't reset even though it is clearly a new month?
are you referring to goals or the actual totals of stars?
if it's goals you reset it manually, if it's the actual numbers in totals we can't change it as it is data coming from FB [stars are a FB thing, like bits are a twitch thing] @sterile wing
perhaps try re-integrating @void yoke
i'm referring to the "Monthly Top Stars" from Labels > Stars > Top stars giver" set to monthly as the cycle in its settings
it still shows a star giver from april, not a new star contribution sent this morning
was there a stream yesterday?
Hi, is there an issue with OBS Studio? i am continuously dropping frames
dropped frames usually originate from a poor network connection to the streaming servers
I'm trying to use StreamElements to go live on facebook but facebook tells me that I need to connect a streaming software to go live. I've copied the stream key but dont see where i can modify the server. please help. thank you.
you need to connect your account in obs settings > stream and also login with your facebook account in streamelements menu > login
Is there a way to change the https link to my tip page? It defaulted to my name-3075 and i would like to remove the numbers at the end.
those random numbers were added because someone already has that username, we can change it but you need to choose a username thats free, so you could add something else at the end of yours
Actually i think it happened because I had someone from SE merge my accounts and that was when the link changed and added the numbers.
it's currently 2downgaming-3037/tip but i would like it to be just 2downgaming/tip if possible.
or even 2down-gaming/tip if by some chance someone did manage to take my normal name.
the username is owned by your youtube account, we can swap them if you want, just send us an email at support@streamelements.com with your request
Ok anything special i need to include in the email?
also include your jwt tokens from both accounts so we can confirm you're the owner of them
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.
Ok will do.
hello
i want someone is pro in facebook streaming
you guys recoomand stream on facebook 60 fps or 30fps and open this menu ?
what you guys recommand the key or to stream direct on facebook from the app
depends on your max bitrate, I suggest 720p60 with at least 3500 bitrate
thats a bit low for streaming, you'll have a hard time with that bitrate
what you recommand
i can only work on 1500 max
my upload is 3000
so if i stream on all the 3000
i cant play
so i need to use the 50% or use little bit
@raw valve can't really give you a recommendation, everything will look bad at that bitrate, you can probably get away with 360/480p streaming if you play 2d games but thats it
Cant go live, It givees me a " We could not create a Live Video on the page. " screen when everything else is right
I accidentally logged into my Facebook but I want to merge it with my other stream elements account that already has my YouTube & Twitch connected… How would I get support for an account merge?

Thank you so much! I did get helped with this. 🙏🏾❤️
I’ve done everything , reinstalled everything , streamkey and everything has been set again and again multiple times but it won’t come up on my creative dashboard. I try to go live and it just tells me something went wrong. Idk what to do. I don’t wanna switch back to stream labs but that def might be the case
are these issues recent? were you able to go live before?
Hi! Can someone tell me how to switch the chat to facebook again inside the streamlabs?
After the selected the connect with twitch I no longer know how to go back in the settings before and when I stream on Facebook it no longer show the chat since it is now connected to Twitch.

Good Morning. I had all my alerts with TTS working then all of a sudden it all stopped and i cant seem to make it work. Can i please get some assitstance!
?*
If i keep my desktop audio on it makes my PlayStation 4 audio either come in twice for me or for the viewers
Would need some data about how your audio is routed from the PS4.
We recommend capture cards where the audio goes via HDMI just like the video
i have the elgato hd60s game capture card hooked up to my ps4 then to my monitor
via two hdmis
That's fine. So you just need to make sure your capture device has an audio input and the desktop audio is not picking up that extra input
And then you can deal with monitoring
How do I go about doing that?
You go to your audio settings, select the Elgato input, then you enable monitoring for that device depending on your hardware and software and that's it
Desktop audio is used only for alerts etc. during the console streams, it has nothing to do with the game audio
audio setting on the my computer or in OBS? the Elgato is already set to monitor and output. and for my computer its set to my elgato
on my* sorry about "the"
Everything is done in OBS of course.
Audio settings on the PC are only needed for volume in that case.
If you hear double sound (on your end or live) that means the source is duplicated somewhere in the settings
I dont see elgato anywhere under my audio settings
i see it in the audio mixer
i have desktop audio, deskotop audio 2, mic/aux audio 1,2,3,4
In the audio settings you can select the correct audio devices.
Please watch a couple of guides how to set that up in OBS, as it is hard for us to explain without visual aid like screenshots.
This is what i am looking at. I looked at 5 videos today alone and none have showed me how to fix it or else i wouldnt be in here asking.
ill send you any screenshot you need
Well you see the "mic/aux audio 2" below your mic input?
This is where the elgato goes into...
That gave me 3 different audios now that copy each other. Desktop audio, Elgato and now Mic/Aux2 none of the videos i watched told me to have my elgato linked up like this.
Hi good day. My activity feed for Facebook suddenly stopped working. Anyone know how to fix this? 🙂
Because every setup is different @proven saddle You need to understand how audio routing works and how to use the hardware and software you got so you can connect it.
hi i cant change the idiom of the bot of the stream
and idk how configure the commands
and put the commands in spanish
@brazen turtle yes i understand that every setup is different. What do you need from me to fix the issue im having? a break down of the equipment i have? blue yeti mic with logitech c920 camera and the elgato hd60s. More screen shots? like i said I havent found a youtube video helping me out.
Like i said, it is hard to diagnose and fix anything, we do not have the capacity to go on extensive calls and figure that out.
Other users also want support.
So please learn how the audio system works - capture cards, OBS audio settings in general and with multiple devices etc.
You can switch the bot language here:
https://streamelements.com/dashboard/bot-commands/default-commands
Top right corner
@brazen turtle you didnt even give me assistance my guy you added to the problem right now. then told me to find out how the audio system works without providing a link to what you think might help.....thaaaaaannnnkkkks
You still need to understand how to connect your audio. We do not know your audio setup and we have not enough time to deep dive into settings with every user. So we give hints where to find solutions.
Hi there! First time user here. Is there a problem with logging in with Facebook right now? I cant seem to log on to my account in the site. Thank you!

Can someone help me? I can't connect my facebook account to OBS.Live. It always shows Wrong Credential.

yep
it's okay now. Thank you @brave shale
Hey guys! Any idea why my activity feed for facebook suddenly stopped working?
Not sure, but logging out and back in should fix that. Website and OBS.Live aswell if you use that tool.
I was able to access my account but now I have the same problem like this
StreamElements menu, on top of OBS > Logout > Login
if that doesn't work provide us with the 2 latest log files after replicating the issue, and a screenshot of what you see
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.
instead of "upload last log file" press 'show log files' and provide us with the most recent 2 logs
hello, not being able to view activity feed. I logged out and logged in again. but still the same. now even not being to login.
when will it be fixed?
I'm having trouble putting streamelements in high priority on my computer, in the task manager I'm not getting it, and doing it for streamelements doesn't seem to be in high priority, can someone help?
You can do it in OBS settings!
I do it over there but I have the impression that it is not working

Question:
How can we get a "share per session" goal widget working, even with automated session reset it still shows the old numbers
Facebook is tracking my hours and it kicked me from level up program and I stream 7days a week 8hours a day. How do I fix this?
Not
That's something you'd have to ask them. Not something we can help with.
Can anyone help me with this issue?
Ask Facebook support
anyone had same problem i got this error but can't submit for request review that said i dont have any issue but still geting that restricted
This is something that only Facebook support can help you with. We only provide streaming tools, so we can't help with issues on the platform itself, specially around partnerships & monetization settings.
Just to update on my issue from a couple of days ago, it’s all working now! Finally got into obs.live and the streamer dashboard and all the content is great! Thanks again for helping! 🙂
Hi, im having issues with setting up my stream on the OBS studio. Usually it gives me the option to set up my stream via a button in the chat widget but nothing is appearing. I have uninstalled OBS and re-installed, still nothing. I have reloaded my Stream key, still nothing. Please help, I currently cannot stream right now due to this issue despite it working perfectly yesterday.
hey guys hope your well! ive been having a problem where i would be live fro about 2hours and my stream would freeze and i'll get "encoding error"
then its cuts my stream and everything goes dark my screens almost reset like the pc is turning on again.

Can anyone help me with this I got sound but trying to make it show in obs is not working
@barren torrent If you are not hearing your alerts and/or Media Request, you are most likely using the Control Audio via OBS option in your browser source properties.
To make sure you hear the alerts and the stream also hears them, follow along the screenshot bellow.

i go to menu, on top of OBS> Logout> Login, and the problem persist
@cobalt light restart your PC and check the stream key is correct in OBS
I need help with this, how to fix it?
See the message right above you. 🙂
@vernal sequoia I've even uninstalled StreamElements but it still doesn't work.
Did you check whether the stream key is correct in OBS Studio settings?
i try to logout / login / restart / reinstall nothing happens
and your stream key is set?
yes, when i'm using auto configuration it connect to live producer after that its still sending me " We could not create a Live Video on the page. "
still the same outcome 😦
Hey has anyone else had an issue with Stream Elements OBS, or OBS in general, streaming to Facebook? Mine was dropping frames so bad I couldn't even stream last night.
is it only while streaming to facebook?
@void yoke so far, I have not switched to Twitch to see if there is a difference yet
Facebook gaming is my primary platform
@wispy cloud hi man! No, no fixed
i know what is the problem
facebook add a new version so when your inthe new version you alerts and chat do not come up right ??
No I reverted out of that @wispy cloud and went back to the old setup
@void yoke just did a 20 min twitch stream with no frame drops. last night in my first 20 mins on facebook I had over a 1000 dropped frames
how to enable the event emulator when editing overlays?
where you set up your overlays @analog pivot on Stream Elements, where the little tool bar is there is a bell over the word EMULATE. thats where you test your stuff
is it just me, or was there previously a label for recent followers?
lol.. I saw it in every youtube video I used to study
Hey I’m sure this has been asked but does Stream Elements have a speak function where it will read a comment when someone sends a certain amount of Stars?
I can't get my stream to link to Facebook.
When I click stream it comes up with error saying they again later.
i was able to add it to my other scenes previously. i wonder what happened?

my streamelevents is gone and i cant put it back in my obs studio
it happened since i clicked on join discord
i dont know what to do
how to get back my streamelements to my obs studio
can someone help me 😦
you cant see the streamelements tab on your OBS?
and youve downloaded the obs.live?
then you do have it
and when i click that streamelements live support it just keeps on bringing me in discord
because its live support...
why are you clicking on that?
the activities on both sides are gone
oh i see thanks
can you really cant see how many people are watching is there a setting for that?
I keep getting this when I go start streaming.
Says we could not create a live video on that page.
@void yoke did you see my messages? The problem is between OBS and Facebook connection. Streamed for 3 hours on Twitch last night with no frame drop at all
how about for the latest follower label? does anybody still have it? or am i the only one not finding it?
thanks man
can you check now? @timid tide I've been told it was added back
will do
and yes it has been added back.
i thought i was going crazy for not being able to find it hahaha
thanks so much
how many people are watching live is there any way to see it ?
it's not available to FB as far as I know @median sleet
Good day!
can someone help me how to show the modal whenever I go live?
the modal is not showing, once I click Start Streaming
What do you mean by modal?
hi pogi
Hi, I mean the pop up window once you click this button
where you can edit the Title of your live stream
this? @calm comet
how do i stop drop frame right when i am using wifi and capturd card ?
@cursive vector Dropped Frames means that you have a bad connection between your device and the streaming platform and most likely something related to your ISP not handling the connection properly.
Speed tests usually cannot help solve this problem and its best to use this guide: https://obsproject.com/wiki/Dropped-Frames-and-General-Connection-Issues
If you stream to twitch, use the !twitchtest command and do a connection test to your regional servers.
My question is if it is an ISP issue, why would you drop frames on one platform (Facebook) but not another (Twitch)?
Confirmed its def back..!! Thx
Ended up changing my cam overlay.. Def want to display that info
Hi, im having issues with TTS on star alerts, is this something thats broken?
are the alerts being triggered at all? or is it just TTS not working?
It’s just the TTS, if I use the emulation function it works in the edit mode, but if I open the overlay in a new tab or obs, it doesn’t work
The alerts show perfectly
seems like your alerts were muted, go to your activity feed and click the bell icon to unmute them
Ahhhhh! This affects TTS? I don’t use that anymore but I’ll unmute it! Thanks
So Ive started streaming on FB, but the chat on OBS won't connect.
@rancid shard StreamElements menu, on top of OBS > Logout > Login
YES!!!
Anyone know how to get viewer count for Facebook?
Facebook doesn't provide an API for viewer count, so we are not able to display it anywhere
Mhm, im pretty sure facebook just show the viewer count on its own tho, Right ?
yes they do, but we can't show it in obs.live
Dang.
up about this pls
@calm comet StreamElements menu, on top of OBS > Logout > Login
not working bot
Ive tried login in and out and even clearing my cache. Nothing yet
@rancid shard show a screenshot of what you see
had to ask the devs - when not streaming click on this button
WOOOOO THANK YOU!!!!!
it Stays on waiting to go live even when I am live. After a while it gives me an error
yeah
so
you have to go live in your live producer
for that dock to recognize you're live and turn into chat
so once you're live in OBS.Live and you see yourself as streaming, go to your live producer, see the feed, setup the 'go live' panel with info, and press 'go live'
that's when your gaming page will post with the actual live feed, and the chat dock will become actual chat
So that's the issue. I do go live and i've already streamed a few times, but for some reason the chat doesn't connect. I go live on OBS and then i go live on my Live Producer. That's when it says waiting to go live like in the first screenshot. Then after a while it turns into he second screenshot even though I'm already live in both.
then something in OBS.Live isn't connected
how are you going live can you be specific as to what options you're choosing?
you press 'start streaming' in OBS, and then what?
I go to "Go Live with facebook Streamer dashboard Settings"
Then I copy and paste the stream key over to OBS
I put my tittle and description.
I click Start streaming on OBS
then I click "Go live" on Live producer
try to copy the server too
choose your service in OBS as 'custom' if needed
and copy the server too, tell me if it's any different for you in terms of chat after you fully go live
Im fully live but my OBS shows the same as before.
nah
first of all please confirm you've added the server
secondly I suggest fully logging out of OBS.Live and even our system on the website
then, after you log in to OBS.Live with your FB account, allow all permissions,
press 'streamer dashboard' on your would-be chat dock
that'll open your live dashboard
press 'set up live stream'
from there copy the server + stream key into OBS
but start with
StreamElements menu, on top of OBS > Logout > Login
SO I need t make it a public broadcast?
Yes.
Still not connecting.
ok, are you live in your page?
yep
try to close and open the dock then
i'll repeat, when it doesn't load - it means something is not properly linked or being identified
because when basic settings are in play chat works every time, as soon as your live stream is posted in the page
yeah that's why its been so weird that it hasn't worked because I have not messed with any of the default settings.
SHould I try reinstalling?
what if you choose "go live with these settings" instead of the first option ("Go Live with facebook Streamer dashboard Settings")?
will you start streaming immediately and you see chat working?
I tried that a moment ago.
that's not what we were discussing?
Was there ever a time in which you streamed and saw the chat dock?
yeah i did the first option first and out of curiosity I tried the second option as well
nope not once yet
ive had to pull up my stream to see the chat
Mmmmmm
**maybe **reinstalling?
I'm not sure it'll solve it though
you're running OBS.Live as admin yeah?
hello i need help i did not link my twitch and youtube accounts in my fb login on streamlab, and i cant merge my acoount with my twitch login
plz help
https://streamelements.com/contact you can reach out via this link and ask for a merge 🙏
Hello! I'm struggling with some widgets pulling the wrong data for my Facebook page, could someone assist me please? 🙏
Specifically it's showing I only have 13 followers on the widget, but on my page I have 240?
Only tracks after joining. None before as it's not possible.
The widget is set for supposedly pulling the number I put in as a specific amount from my goal data, it does, but then when I get a new follower, it bottoms out for some reason instead of going up 1
go to activity feed, and then click widget data, then session data, find follower count and change that to the current amount of followers you have
next time you replicate this please collect the 2 most recent log files by navigating to help > log files > show log files
you can @ me here when you have them [I might take a little time to reply, but I'll know what to do with the logs]
just make sure you replicate the issue and collect the logs only a few minutes after you see the same error in your chat dock
Ive set up everyting,overlay game capture fine and stream key but for some reason when i say go live and it redirects me to facebook i can get to activate the stream on facebook for some reason I dont know what to do at the graphics section it gives you on facebook
hi. new obs user. since moving over to obs. I open as admin and it continues to close down. I repeat this process until it stays open. can take up to 3-4 time. any ideas? I have uninstalled and reinstalled already
@hazy ridge Obs.live is a plugin for OBS Studio for the best OBS support, please join their Official Discord @ https://discord.gg/obsproject
does anyone know if the chatbox is working on SE for FB yet?
It has been fixed for a while now
amazing thanks, hadnt checked on it
I just finish building my streaming pc the only issue now is that my alerts still show up on my gaming pc in obs, and only audio plays from the streaming pc no video from the alerts im not sure why but ive logged out tof the obs on the gaming pc but still no visuals from the alerts on my streaming pc,
please advise
You need to add the browser sources to your OBS on the streaming PC to have them play on the correct PC
yea that was the first thing i did thats not it
@brazen turtle
i have audio on the streaming pc no graphics
if your streaming PC is not displaying the alerts, but has sound - please check the browser source settings
where would i find that.. in properties?
doubleclick on the browser source
make sure it has the correct resolution for your overlay
and that the position of the overlay is correct
thank you, if that problem comes up again hardware acceleration have to be turned off in OBS thanks again @brazen turtle
hardware acceleration is usually not an issue with invisibility, more a performance issue
did not expect that
undstood but you got me where I needed to be, Ive been working on it for 2hours now🤦♂️

When you start the stream on facebook, can you use the option "go live with the dashboard settings"?
Do not remember the exact wording, but there are 2 options - you need the one that let's you start the stream with the existing settings
I dont get the option to go live, ive watched videos and done exactly what they said but the go live option doesnt show
Do you have a facebook gaming page?
Yes i have created a facebook gaming page and inserted the streamkey to my software and ive also linked it to my stream elements profile
You are using OBS.Live, correct?
If yes, please go to the top menu - StreamElements - Logout
then log back in and check again
