You're welcome.
sorry I went away from my laptop for a while and now I have forgotten my question. If I remember my question I will come back here.
still reading all the msgs here.. but what is your bitrate if no one got to you yet regarding your delay on twitch. If you lower your bitrate, the delay will be lower to actual live feed. so yah it all depends on the bitrate
have you tried adjusting your bitrate while streaming? it also depends on your upload from your ISP
Hello I am trying to remove Twitch from streamlabs cause the twitch account on streamlabs is unaccessable how to i remove it as primary and set up a new twitch im a ultra user.
I don't know my bitrate and don't know how to lower it to make no delays
Xbox right?
It will never be “instant”. That’s how the internet works. There’s always a delay between when something happens and when it is presented on stream. If you’re experiencing a significant amount of delay, I would recommend lowering your stream output resolution
I haven’t checked discord for a bit i forgot about this my resolution was 1080p and bitrate 4000kbps
lol np, i knocked out in my chair from a food coma... uhh what is your ISP upload speed?
I have problems wiith the quality and idk what im doing wrong
this is the max quality i can get
{1}```md
Recommended bitrate values versus used resolution and FPS.
- For 1280x720 at 30FPS use 2200 up to 2800kbps.
- For 1280x720 at 60FPS use 3800 up to 5600kbps.
- For 1920x1080 at 30FPS use 4400 up to 6200kbps.
- For 1920x1080 at 60FPS use (6000) 8700 up to 12500kbps.
- For 1600x900 or 1536x864 at 60FPS use at least 6000kbps up to 8600kbps.
<Note: These values are based for single-pc streaming setup, using x264 veryfast preset>
Using lower bitrates than listed is possible where allowed by the type of content or when using a better (slower) x264 preset or using RTX NVENC to have 6000kbps for 1080p60.
If you get pixelations on your stream, this would mean there is insufficient bitrate to properly encode the stream for the given content.```
# Streaming Service Limitations
- Twitch recommended and supported maximum bitrate is 6000kbps. [Link 1]
- Facebook allows up to 1280x720 at 30FPS and a max bitrate of 4000kbps. [Link 2]
- Facebook Level program allows 1080p at 60FPS and a max bitrate of 9000kbps [Link 3]
- Youtube recommended settings [Link 4]```

how do i check
how can i make a !commands command where my vviewers can see the command list ?
i think u can make a custom command and just have it show ur custom commands
but where can i see the commands page so i can link it
cloudbot
my screen size is 1512 982
oh nvm completely ignore what i said i use nightbot
ok thanks tho
I don't understand.. no wonder how much bitrate i have the video is still as pixelated as befire
and i tried different softwares
or is it just the preview?
it is really strange because if you zoom in it is better quality..

since you are unsure what your ISP gives you, just do a speedtest of your bandwidth at home. You can do the speedtest by Ookla or fast.com (this is used by netflix, its more reliable no ads)
hello, my name is arga, can i ask something? my streamlabs alert box cannot appear at obs studio? what should i do? thx all
You did add the Alert Box as a Browser Source, correct?
i did it my internet speed is 170
Is that your download or upload?
i think download
i did upload is 10 mbps
can smb help me, my image is very choppy when streaming although being on a decent pc and running reccomended settings
so since you are 170 Dn / 10 Up... i would probably drop to 3500 for your bitrate if you are trying to do 1080p, even if it is console it is possible
this is my DL and Up, i do 1080 at 2600 because my Up is 8.5, i share bandwidth
Ok. Does that mean lower latency?
lol since we are on same topic... What is your bitrate you are streaming at
I use a regular laptop. No consoles. And not a gaming laptop.
6k
90 upload
fun fact to XBox users....
ok i’ll try it next time i get the chance thank you
should i up my bitrate to 7.5k or something?
you may have to drop it down for sure 1080p to 3000 bitrate... or 720p at 3000
im running 1080p 60fps
no, not unless you are Partnered on the platform
ok lol im not
If you are affiliate your max on twitch is 6000, if you are partner, you are allotted 8000
but understand, the lower you go on bitrate, it lowers your delay (better)... the higher you go (more delay)
yes
ok
I remember the other question I had. So since I made it to affiliate status on Twitch, is there anything I need to do or is it not acknowledged by Twitch, it is just a goal that I reached? Do they do anything to show I reached that goal?
if you are not partnered on many platforms and just affiliate, this would be your chart lol
yah there are achievements, and should have an achievement page, let me get the link for you
yes, but when my friend try to subscribe the notification doesn't pop up, i dont know why
YouTube?
yuppp, is youtube does'nt support alert widget streamlabs?
//dashboard.twitch.tv/u/kazusan85/analytics/achievements ... just replace my name, with your twitch username
That’s due to an account privacy option in YouTube that’s enabled by default. If the viewer’s subscriptions are private, we cannot detect when they subscribe to your channel.
so, how to solve this problem?
The viewer would need to go here BEFORE subscribing https://www.youtube.com/account_privacy and turn this setting off. Changing it after subscribing would not cause an alert. Also unsubscribing and resubcribing after toggling that option off would not cause an alert. The latter is done to prevent people from spamming your alerts.
This setting ON YOUR CHANNEL doesn’t matter. The person watching your stream would have to change the setting on THEIR account.
YouTube did this comply with privacy laws like COPPA.
Thank you
you are welcome, and for those trying to reach affiliate on twitch lol here is the lazy method instead of going to the page, this is what you need
okay, so my setting is not the problem right? then even someone else subscribe me is turn of the setting its not gonna give me a notification on my youtube account and my alert box? correct me if im wrong
Correct. The setting on your channel isn’t the problem. If the viewer doesn’t turn off the setting on their channel before clicking the subscribe button your channel, that subscription won’t be detected and thus no alert.
türk birisi bana streamlabste yardımcı olabilirmi
is that same case for members and superchat?
Yes for Members and no for SuperChat.
right now my friend help me to subscribe and turn off the privacy setting, but still the notification is not pop up
how to fix it?
Did they turn it off after subscribing?
no, they turn it off first, then they subscribing, but still the notification doesn't pop up
Interesting. Did YouTube send you an email about the subscription? Does it appear in your YouTube Studio?
no, youtube not send me an email about the subscription and it doesn't appear in my youtube studio, i don't know how to solve it haha
hey im new here just having an issue with withdrawing my money from streamlabs
sorry if this is wrong channel
Sounds like they may have turned the setting off after subscribing. Detecting subscriptions on YouTube is hard.
You’ll need to submit a ticket for assistance with that: https://support.streamlabs.com/hc/en-us/requests/new. We can’t assist with payment issues in Discord due to the privacy and security of your confidential information.
Anyone know a reason why the Streamlabs recent event list might just be a blank white display? Tried a restart and relogging
ok ty
am i must be change the setting of the OBS Studio? or is the error of the streamlabs overlay?
The web page or the Mini Feed? If web page, log out of the Streamlabs web site, clear the cache, and restart the whole web browser and try Shay.
It’s not an issue with OBS Studio or Streamlabs. The issue is the setting on YouTube.
I've been trying to get some answers on video capture device and display capture issues. Ever since this update I have to unplug and replug my camera and my display capture I have had to manually turn on my every time I switch to a scene. When I switch back and forth between scenes with a hot key the display capture vanishes. Need help please.
The minifeed, using it in a popout on PC, troubleshooting for a friend i'll try get some more info
Found this in a video, whatever you would define this as
The mini feed on your Streamlabs Desktop?
That’s Streamlabels.
So Streamlabels isn’t working?
Indeed
Quit Streamlabels, download a fresh installer, run the installer as administrator and let it install over your existing installation. Then reboot your PC and try again.
👍 thank you! we will try that
You’re welcome!
so, there is no way out to solve this problem?
How can I reach someone at Streamlabs on the phone? I upgraded to Ultra but it did not give me the membership, even though they took my money.
There no telephone contact, sorry. You’ll need to submit a ticket for assistance with that: https://support.streamlabs.com/hc/en-us/requests/new. We can’t assist with payment issues in Discord due to the privacy and security of your confidential information.
No after the fact, sorry. I can give you steps to refresh the connection between Streamlabs and YouTube but that won’t go back and capture events that were missed. You want to try that?
yeah, can you give me some steps to refresh the connection? let me try it
I already submitted a ticket. I'm trying to get everything setup for tonight. Would it be quicker to just dispute the charge and try again? When I log int Streamlabs under my Twitch account, I don't see Ultra but if I use my Streamlabs login it appears to have Ultra. Not sure what is going on.
See the tagged post from the bot below. Once done with the guide, launch Streamlabs Desktop and log back in to re-establish the connection.
@trim magnet We would suggest logging out of Streamlabs and all Streamlabs software that you may be using.
Then please follow this guide to disconnect your streaming service from Streamlabs: https://streamlabs.com/content-hub/post/how-to-disconnect-your-streamlabs-account Once you have done this, please log in again.
I would wait for a response with on the ticket. Disputing the charge just adds more complete the problem. Just be patient and they will get to you. I understand the process is frustrating and not quick.
if that works, it very helpfull for me
Normally, when I log into my Streamlabs desktop, it is using my Twitch login and I had Ultra. Now it expired and when I renewed it wants me to use my Streamlabs login on the desktop to access Ultra. All of my settings, overlays, and everything disappear if I log on using Streamlabs login instead of Twitch. Make sense?
Sounds like your Streamlabs ID is tied to a different Streamlabs account. You’d need to open a ticket for that as well as we can’t assist with account issues in Discord as us Volunteers aren’t employees and we have no access with which to help. Only the staff can sort out account issues.
Ok thanks.
You’re welcome.
hi @gritty isle , where is the step that you suggest to me?
Click here: <#technical-support message>
ok, after i remove the streamlabs what should i do after that?
Launch Streamlabs Desktop and log back in.
im sorry im rot recognize it
ok my friend, let me try it
hello brother, it solve, thank you very much for your help
You’re welcome.
by the way, is there any channel for chills and talking about streaming?
Hello. New here. Can anyone help, my alerts I set in streamlabs are not playing on my stream. It plays a different alert sound and I don't know why.
thank you friend
seeing you have ultra because of gold status, you can also get support in #ultra-support
Guys on my alert have john cena sound, its playing with the same time my alert music, but i dont have any john cena sound in streamlabs
how can i fix that problem i dont want to hear john cena every sub or gifted subs
In my alerts I got no John Cena sound effect but somehow whenever I get a new sub it keeps mashing with my own alert sound and mixes with it. It comes out of nowhere, I don't have this sound effect on streamlabs.*
i would say before going live with alot of stuff, try doing local recordings and test your alerts first. See if they come through with sound as well. If they are not coming through with sound, check if the alerts are configured correctly too.
on test there is no john cena but when someone paid its happening
im testing always its enough like maybe one or two months i listened that johncena
ill try to get clip and show you
sure
look at this today john cena played same time 2x normally plays one time 😄
i also tried to delete all alerts and setup again but didnt work
also tried paid alerts still same
where is this john cena comes from
I think it's been like this for 2 months
whats the difference between softaware and nvvida nvenc like i want to maximise my fps on a cpu heavy game which would be better to use?
i'll check it in a bit, cooking lunch 🙂 experimenting with chilli oil is like the death of me LOL
I'm having the same issue
thanks but I don't have access to this link
do you have also john cena or different song
i have a different song. it's affecting my follower alert
I also tried everything you did and can't seem to figure out where the other sound is coming from
yeah so annoying
Link your Discord under integrations for access to our Ultra/VIP roles and private chats
https://streamlabs.com/dashboard/#/settings/integrations
I just found the solution to my alert problem. Do you happen to use the Sound Alert extension?
how pls tell me 😄
lemme check probably not
no i dont have now, deleted long time ago
i install again will check if there is a smth ill turn it off
so did i but the settings are still affecting my alerts.
no need to install it again, just go to the dashboard and click on My Alerts
i have these only
Oh okay
Check the Parrot extension and see if it may have activated alerts with that sound
My issues was here
yeh was going to say if you have an extra bot or something that is triggering the same time as your Streamlabs alert, that could be it
do you use any other bots? Trippy?
Yeah I thought it may have been Stream elements so I removed it. but it was still happening
the main bots i use are Soundalerts, wizebot, nightbot, sery_bot, and streamlabs... some alert is triggering the same time with his johncena clip
luckily mine are only based off channel points and bits 🙂
Has anyone ever figured out why Madden 24 has stuttering video recordings and the game on my main screen is nice and clean?
Only trying to record, not stream.
Now that I turned off the Follower trigger, I can use Sound alerts again.

anyone having issues connecting to facebook for multistream? was working last week and now i cant connect
if recording... what encoder are you using.... software x264 or hardware 264
h.264
and botrix & its for kick i guess
you could send a video
I have a 5800x and 6700xt that should be more than good enough, right?
yah plenty... lol i have 3700x and 6800xt, just my ram is 64GB CL-16

I had an issue when trying to stream CoD and I had to change to the way I captured the game
oh okay
actually typed your issue on google, looks like madden 24 has performance issues since of last year, also related to stuttering and lag
actually i ran into your post from last year
haha
Yeah, so you have to make sure your graphics settings in game are correct.
One message removed from a suspended account.
Yep its been an issue for a while. I was just hoping that streamlabs had any clue as to what is going on.
I mean I have my in game setting to where the game plays great now. But recording is still bad.
nah, that would be a Madden 24 issue there, if it's been going on for OBS and other platforms... PS i dont work for streamlabs im a fellow streamer, just know ways around troubleshooting..
i found the john cena sounds fix its cus of botrix
nice, glad you were able to fix it
according to several forums EA didnt apply a fix for Madden 24 yet.. so it's a Madden issue
Unfortunately, I think that EA was waaaaaay off base when they published the recommended specs to play the game, because I have better than those specs and still have issues recording. 
yah.. its a Madden issue, not a streaming platform issue at this point of EA hasn't patched their game
If that didn't help then I'm out of ideas. It fixed my issue. Wish I could be of more help @elfin pawn
Well maybe one thing, try lowering the graphics gameplay.
If your game is freezing... something else is going on besides the streaming platforms... at this point you may want to troubleshoot your PC. This is where Event Viewer comes in handy.
i dont want to flood this chat with Event Viewer logs... but if want to continue troubleshooting your issue, feel free to DM me, i'll teach you what logs to grab for eventviewer. I can look at them for you
for some reason i cant talk in stream, i've turned on the music feature and im new and this looks so advanced for me.
did you set streamlabs to capture your mic? are you using a 3rd party audio mixer?
Hello, could anyone help me with a sound issue? As soon as I connect to my Discord chat, my elgato capture card stops working (sound) and stream also becomes laggy, etc. i’m on macbook
what does that mean? and whats a 3rd party audio mixer, i am quite new to streaming. So i dont do any experienced stuff.
let me open my streamlabs i'll show you the audio mixer that i have set... and a 3rd party audio mixer is something that helps me pipe all my audio to one software, that streamlabs or other software only has to listen to 2 channels

Hello Friends! New to the Streamlabs Discord, but not new to Streamlabs. I'm attempting to hook Streamlabs to my merch shelf in Youtube, but the option to do so does not exist in my panels, despite logging in with a partnered Youtube account. Wondering if I'm missing something...
you say attempting to hook... like just pointing a link to your URL of merch page?
@shrewd finch using the desktop. Can't type back in that thread for some reason. The whole program seems to freeze and than will close down.
On the stream the picture just goes black and then ends in most cases it seems
I'm gonna do just twitch and YouTube again later today and see if lowing the quality helped
you shouldnt do @ 's unless actively helping... Also i notice you are on Ultra... have you posted in the #ultra-support yet?
Just responding to my thread in there. Got closed cause I took a nap 🤣
Apologies, Youtube can allow a merch shelf to sit below your videos. Streamlabs introduced a way to integrate your streamlabs merch store into this in 2023, complete with instructions. I end up with a hiccup halfway through the instructions.
you can still respond in the ultra thread as another can take on your closed ticket, because this one is Community support as we dont have eyes on your ticket 🙂
I'm in discord alot for my nfts and have been a mod. Idk how it works but thanks
I just figured quickest way to reopen ticket instead of opening another
But if you guys wanna help.. my stream keeps frezzing
eh this comm support is slower than you think Tokes... lol the ultra support would be faster for you 🙂
No worries!
This panel that says Youtube should appear for me, but does not.
the only thing i can think of for that is probably un-merge and re-merge your youtube account, because maybe something didnt sync correctly.
I'll give it a go. I logged out and relogged in with the youtube, but I don't think I unmerged and remerged the accounts.
Hey is there any way to paste a camera scene as a duplicate in order to independently edit it from another one?
sorry to cut you off from your convo
like duplicate like... two cameras in same scene? my brain is slow today.
yeah 2 camera in the same scene but with me able to edit the filters of only one of the instances
never tried that, i dont know if that would be possible honestly, but im sure others have inputs on this...
@pallid ingot if sld allowed loading plugins, you'd use the source clone plugin by exeldro, but no, it's exclusive to obs-studio
as a workaround, you could create 2 scenes, add the camera to both, then apply filters to those scenes and nest them as sources
how do I nest scenes as sources?
when adding a new source, choose the "scene" source type
ohhhhh ok thank you. I appreciate it
I'm having a hard time testing the alertbox. watched several videos to make sure the config is correct so here I am. Nothing happens when I test.
does anyone know if SLOBS allows av1? ive got a 7900 xtx and SLOBS will not detect it for youtube....
umm hi im using the streamlabs app on my windows 11 computer and everytime i clik game overlay it says must log in so i do but it tkaes me directly to the browser to log in so i do then when i go back to streamlabs i still cant add game overlay
for whatever reason I can't add a video capture device. the device is connected and works but every time I try to add anything it just infinitely loads. All of my drivers are up to date. I've uninstalled streamlabs and restarted multiple times
@manic dagger verify it's not already in use by other apps
Nothing's using it
I run into this problem even if I don't have anything plugged in
I've also tried running in admin mode @marble wind
does anyone know how to pair the minifeed to my twitch acccount? test follows work but it doesnt show at all when i actually get a follow?
Hey ! I need some help 😦 I am new to using Streamlabs and PC gaming... Whenever I open streamlabs I cannot hear my gaming audio in my headset or even on the stream. For example, I play Fortnite and I can hear my party chat just fine when streamlabs is open no game audio(shooting sounds,ect) can be heard. When I close the application out, I can hear all of it as I should, Please help! 🙂
@jaunty vine bluetooth?
Im trying to login on desktop with my streamlabs ID and every time I do it just takes me to the website and doesnt login on the desktop app.
Can someone confirm if StreamLabs still does not support third-party plugins? I am trying to get Audio Move to run with SLOBS. Will I need to switch to OBS in order for this to work?
My alerts have stopped working recently via streamlabs (my alerts from other sources work fine) I have looked at and tried the troubleshooting tips from here https://streamlabs.com/content-hub/post/alertswidget-troubleshooting but my alerts still wont show up or sound off. Both live stream and offline testing the alerts dont work. Seeing if anyone has something else I can try to fix my alerts?
the move trasnsition by exeldro right from a youtube vod that was posted 9months ago?
only a few select plugins are whitelisted, including stream deck plugin and obs-ndi, nothing else can be loaded
Hey, my alert box stopped working and it hasn't updated for 14 hours... any idea why? I have checked everything and I don't think it's something wrong with my configuration...
have you tried logging out of streamlabs desktop and relogging back in? Plus, to verify they work prior streaming, i recommend doing a local recording before going live. (note im not an expert with streamlabs, im just a streamer like you 😉 )
will try, thanks!
Can someone please help me for some weird reason it’s telling me to contact SUPPORT to request a data migration
now it updated with a sub I got 3 hours ago, but that's all... idk man
Well that's a pity

The problem I’m having is I’m trying to connect my YouTube and it’s telling me that I need a data migration
hello ı have problem for game capture black screen
The followers list does not refresh. Anyone know how to fix this? (last update was 6m ago but i have new followers)
@quiet shale ```md
Having issues with Streamlabs Desktop not capturing and just getting a black screen?
- After you've added your capture source, the "game" may require to be focused before it will be captured in Streamlabs Desktop.
- This means you will want to start interacting with the "game" for about 5-20 seconds before it will be detected.
- Also try running Streamlabs Desktop as admin and if using Game Capture, try using the "Capture Specific Window" option.
Note: Some games will simply not work with Game Capture and will require the use of Window Capture or Display Capture.
Still not working? See the guides below for desktops [Link 1] and laptops [Link 2].```
:one: PC Desktop users get more detailed information about this at :link: https://streamlabs.com/content-hub/post/black-screen-game-capture-problems
:two: Laptop users should see this troubleshooting guide instead :link: https://streamlabs.com/content-hub/post/troubleshooting-capture-source-issues-on-laptops
Refreshing the connection between Streamlabs and the platform will resolve this.
Please follow the instructions exactly in this guide: https://streamlabs.com/content-hub/post/how-to-disconnect-your-streamlabs-account.
Don't skip the log out steps! To log out of the Streamlabs web site, click your PFP in the upper right corner of the web site and choose Log out. See the image below on how to log out in Streamlabs Desktop.
👉 NOTE: **This will not go back and capture any events that were missed. Events are sent over the API once and if they aren't detected, that event will never be sent again.
You'll need a new event (new follow on Twitch, new subscriber on YouTube, etc) as verification. I can follow on Twitch or subscribe on YouTube for verification if you like. An unfollow/refollow or unsubscribe/resubscribe won't trigger a new alert.**
👉 NOTE: The guide has sections for the 4 platforms we have full integration with, Twitch, YouTube, Facebook, and Trovo. So only follow the section for the platform you're using.
👉 NOTE: You must not be live when you follow this guide. So if you’re live, end the stream first.
Log out/Log in: https://i.gyazo.com/d85a0f693148ea5b9e4c6b03d7cbf703.png
👉 IMPORTANT: Once you have completed the guide, go back to the Streamlabs web site https://streamlabs.com/dashboard#/recentevents, click the Live Actions tab, scroll all the way to the bottom and click the Reload Widgets button. Then launch Streamlabs Desktop and log back in there.
For some reason my when I test my alerts they go off, but during stream they dont work. Every alert is enabled. I am on OBS.
For alerts not appearing while live:
Do you perhaps have Unlimited Alert Moderation Delay enabled? If so, disable that setting. Please go here https://streamlabs.com/dashboard#/alertbox and if you have Unlimited Alert Moderation Delay enabled, disabled it then click Save Settings at the bottom of the page. Also go here https://streamlabs.com/dashboard#/recentevents and make sure your alerts are not paused. If this icon is a play button, your alerts were paused. https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/962371235789025360/1147374507238101072/IMG_1019.png
@gritty isle I solved the problem thank you 👌
You’re welcome!
So i had custom css and i signed in via streamlabs ID is there a way to revert this because i dont have the css or html saved
Sign in with the specific platform, Twitch, YouTube, Facebook, or Trovo rather than your Streamlabs ID to work on your alerts.
I run 2-3 monthly streams of 10-15 hours and get a lot of stability issues after the 8ish hour mark, including disconnects, frame loss, and even a blue screen of death once. What settings can i look at adjusting to minimize how taxing it is on my PC while still outputting a quality stream?
Hi all, I was wondering if it was possible to copy the alerts set up from one platform to another (FB to twitch) on streamlabs? Or do I have to recreate them per platform
There’s no way to copy alerts. You’ll have to set up each platform manually.
gotcha odd question if i wanted to make a alert for raiders which am i needing to use in the brackets ive tried amount and it dosnt work
What specifically doesn’t work?
- {amount} Raiders i have this in the html and did a test raid alert and it just shows {amount}
That variable won’t work for raid alerts. The default message should have been sufficient. Here’s the two variables that work with raid alerts:
{name} - Shows the name of the streamer raiding you.
{count} - Shows the number of raiders that have joined the raid.
okay thanks
You’re welcome.

I have a 22-second delay from my video and chat. My Preset setting in STROBS is set to 'high'. If I lower this setting, would it lower the delay between my stream and chat?
i want donation in text only not that bar streamlabels donation goal i am trying
There are no settings for that. You'd have to try using custom HTML/CSS or build your own goal widget.
Actually, I just found the Low Latency toggle option in the settings. I will try that the next time I stream!
i think we can add through streamlabels text file ?
Streamlabels are data from the end platform, like Twitch, YouTube, or Facebook. A goal is something that is defined in your Streamlabs account and can't be obtained via a Streamlabel. You can get the most recent donation, top donations, etc, but not the actual goal itself.
OH WAIT
I think you can actually.
So yeah, give it a whirl!
yeah there is a option of donation goal
but it's not reading from file when i am doing
Could you provide a path to that file? Just change ur user to USER if you don't want to send that part
You'd add it a a Text Source and choose the Read from file option.
or do we make our own?
yeah i am doing
but the goal is not showing on screen
Is it in the right order in your scene?
It would whatever folder your choose with the standalone Streamlabels app. It might be available via the Streamlables Widget directly in Streamlabs Desktop but I've not directly verified that.
If it's below ur game capture it'll disappear
no it's not below
And you need to use streamlabels own file? Can't make your own and direct?
Yes! LAYERS! Like the onion and parfait.
Okay it wont let me un merge my twitch from stream labs
Either use the standalone Streamlabels app (if you're not using Streamlabs Desktop) or if you are using Streamlabs Desktop, use the built in Streamlabels Widget.
Thanks man! That did it, i'm just slow lmao
i am using streamlabels app
If Twitch is your Primary account in Streamlabs, you won't be able to unmerge it. You Primary account holds all your clouds backups, widget settings, donation history, Merch store, etc. If you need to change your Primary account, you'll need to put in a ticket: https://support.streamlabs.com/hc/en-us/requests/new
but it's not showing again like not reading from txt file
I use Limix webcam program that makes my lumix camera to a webcam
Does the file exist in the location you specified?
im tryna maximise my fps in game im using nvida nvenc so what bitrate should i use i dropped from 6500 to 4000 is that good?
yeah i am using top donator from path
but the donation goal is not showing
And you added a Text Source and pointed it to the file. Make sure the Text source is at the top of the Source list. If its lower in the Source list than any capture method (Game Capture, Window Capture, Display Capture), then it will be 'hidden' and thus not visible.
@normal dew ```md
Sources not showing on your screen/stream?
- You need to move the source that you can, or cannot see, in the Sources list as this is a layer system.
- Meaning, if you can't see something it isn't layered properly.```:arrow_right: Source Order - Refer to this gif here :link: https://i.gyazo.com/79f55004498e69f820ab5abbcd9bcf57.mp4
i layered it properly and i tried moving it on screen i thought it’s hiding but then alsoo it’s not showing
?????
Yesterday i noticed StreamLabels is not opening like it should. Is there a current problem with the program?
Streamlabs alerts don't work when someone leaves a follow, someone please help
Quit Streamlabels, download a fresh installer, run the installer as administrator and let it install over your existing installation. Then reboot your PC and try again.
Refreshing the connection between Streamlabs and the platform will resolve this.
Please follow the instructions exactly in this guide: https://streamlabs.com/content-hub/post/how-to-disconnect-your-streamlabs-account.
Don't skip the log out steps! To log out of the Streamlabs web site, click your PFP in the upper right corner of the web site and choose Log out. See the image below on how to log out in Streamlabs Desktop.
👉 NOTE: **This will not go back and capture any events that were missed. Events are sent over the API once and if they aren't detected, that event will never be sent again.
You'll need a new event (new follow on Twitch, new subscriber on YouTube, etc) as verification. I can follow on Twitch or subscribe on YouTube for verification if you like. An unfollow/refollow or unsubscribe/resubscribe won't trigger a new alert.**
👉 NOTE: The guide has sections for the 4 platforms we have full integration with, Twitch, YouTube, Facebook, and Trovo. So only follow the section for the platform you're using.
👉 NOTE: You must not be live when you follow this guide. So if you’re live, end the stream first.
Log out/Log in: https://i.gyazo.com/d85a0f693148ea5b9e4c6b03d7cbf703.png
👉 IMPORTANT: Once you have completed the guide, go back to the Streamlabs web site https://streamlabs.com/dashboard#/recentevents, click the Live Actions tab, scroll all the way to the bottom and click the Reload Widgets button. Then launch Streamlabs Desktop and log back in there.
And you verified the file is not empty?
yeah file is not empty
Screen shot the properties for your Text Source please. I added mine and I can see it.
It worked. Very odd that the program didn't run the auto-update like it normally does. Checked the version and it was the previous version. Thank you for your help 🙂
You're welcome!
you want my text file property screenshot ?
i am adding in obs actually
Yes.
Hi all
That's fine.

https://streamlabs.com/dashboard#/creator-sites to change the name of your merch name, looks like you can even revert it too.
I have no way to check this
Is it working
I can follow you as a test. Would you like that?
my nick in twitch: pa4ztecikpl
Have you completed the steps I gave including clicking the Reload Widgets button?
yes
but I just have no way to check if it works
Great! Let's confirm with a screen shot of the Streamlabs connection on Twitch. Please go to https://www.twitch.tv/settings/connections, scroll down to Other Connections and screen shot the Streamlabs connection.
We're working on that. Trust the process, be patient.
My Stream Boss widget stopped working a couple weeks ago. I have tried deleting it and re-adding it as a source - but it is blank/empty. Is this a known problem?
( i from poland)
Make sure you don't have Enable Custom HTML/CSS enabled.
Great! That looks good! Thanks for the screen shot. Are you using Streamlabs Desktop or OBS Studio?
I used obs before but now I use streamlabs
Thanks for confirming that. I see you're live. Go ahead and go to the scene with the Alert Box and let me know when you're ready.
alert box twitch?
Thanks for the response. I don't have Custom HTML/CSS enabled. It has been working for the past three years without a problem.
No, you should have the Streamlabs Alert Box in one or more scenes in Streamlabs Desktop. Go to one of those scenes in Streamlabs Desktop.
property screenshot
Are you using Streamlabs Desktop or OBS Studio?
Not of the file. I need the screen shot of the Text Source. Like this.
Streamlabs v1.14.0
Okay, thanks for confirming, sounds like you're using a Mac, right?
okay but i think property size is 0 is there any problem
Yes. I have a Mac Studio - Sonoma 14.2.1
(yellow bold) this?
like this it's showing
Cool, go into the Properties for the Stream Boss widget, click the Source tab, then checkl the circled option and click the button below, 'Refresh the cache of current page' then click Done to close the properties. Does that help?
I had it done a long time ago
I tried that - and it didn't work. It is also blank when I launch it in a browser.
I followed but I see you're not live any more. Did you see the alert in the preview window and did your Mini Feed update?
@gritty isle any update ?
i don t see alert
Did the Mini Feed update?
Give me a minute, assisting multiple customers here.
Weird. Please screen shot the settings you have for the Stream Boss.
I don't know why the alerts are not displayed and the events window shows that there is a follow
Please let me know if you need any additional information.
You donation_goal.txt file is zero bytes ao there is nothing to display. I would go to the Streamlabs web site and setup your Donation Goal Widget and start it, wait a few minutes. log out of Streamlabels, restart it, and log back in.
Yea, I see my follow right there, 4 minutes ago.
maybe I'll just give up and make twitch alerts 😦
and the alert did not appear
Why? I see my follow. Its working. From your screen shot, it looks like your Alert Box is added as a Browser Source. It could be there is a bad URL pasted into that source. I would remove that source and add the Alert Box Widget.
done
I changed it and maybe now?
And does the file now have data in it, meaning does it have the text of your Donation Goal?
no bro even my top donator file is also now 0kbafter logout and loginng in again
I can't unfollow and refollow as that doesn't trigger an alert; that's done to prevent people from spamming your alerts. You'll need to fond someone to follow you as a test, that has never ever followed you before.
No, the donation_goal.txt file.
i will try to create a new account
Those settings look okay to me. Did this suddenly stop working recently?
Hey guys I redeemed the website through streamlabs where namecheap hosts it right? It has never once worked. Constant DNS problems so I just set the DNS to go to the legacy site of the creator site until I find a way to fix it does anyone know a way to do so?
Yes - it stopped working two weeks ago.

Yes - but I also tried the link in Chrome - and it is blank as well.
Very strange indeed. I'd go ahead and submit a ticket for this https://support.streamlabs.com/hc/en-us/requests/new and troubleshoot with the staff. I don't have a Mac so I can't test further locally. The fact that its blank in multiple browsers is an interesting data point that will help them figure this out.
Doesn't work how? You don't see the alert still or the Mini Feed doesn't update?
Thanks for your time and assistance. I appreciate it. Have a great day.
You're welcome! My day would be better if it indeed it would stop 🌧️ but the forecast says its going to do that all day today and tomorrow. Sigh. 😛
the mini window shows me that someone has followed me, but they are no longer displayed
I think I'll make alerts witch twitch alert
When you added the Alert Box Widget, did you move it to the top of your Source list?
yes
Okay, great.
Do you perhaps have Unlimited Alert Moderation Delay enabled? If so, disable that setting. Please go here https://streamlabs.com/dashboard#/alertbox and if you have Unlimited Alert Moderation Delay enabled, disabled it then click Save Settings at the bottom of the page. Also go here https://streamlabs.com/dashboard#/recentevents and make sure your alerts are not paused.

Yo can anyone help ?
We might if we knew more about your issue.
pls help
thank you !!!!!!!!!!
why wont my obs mobile stay connected? everything is up to date but it keeps dropping the video
That was a know issue last year that was resolved.
Streamlabs Music playlists not appearing
Status: 09/27/2023
What do I need to do?: Close & reopen Streamlabs Desktop
What version of Streamlabs Desktop do you have?
works !
So you had Unlimited Alert Moderation Delay enabled?
yea
I didn't know it would change anything
Hop over to the #ultra-support channel for assistance and thank you for being a Streamlabs Ultra subscriber! 
Yes, it causes alerts not to be presented until they are manually approved by a moderator. Its a setting that sounds good but 99.9% of the time breaks alerts.
I Have restarted it and i Have the latest
Thanks for confirming that. Please uninstall the app (see picture), log out of Streamlabs Desktop (see post from the bot), restart Streamlabs Desktop, log back in, and finally install the Streamlabs Music app back. Let me know how it goes.
@agile garden

so i have a question about something that i just can't figure out
how can i check does the file have text or not ?
not this ?
Is it zero length? If not, double click on it to open it with Notepad. What are the contents?
do i need to submit a ticket for this?

State your issue then, let's see if we can't get it resolved...
so i've used the streamlabs software before and never had any problems with it until now, i am having lag, skipped frames, possible network problems but probably not, and stream quality issues, i have a radeon 7900xtx and a ryzen 9 7900
drivers are all up to date as well
Is Streamlabs Desktop reporting these frame issues or is it just something you or your viewers are seeing? To enable notifications, in Streamlabs Desktop, go to Settings > Notifications and enable all the options and set the sliders to about 15%.
my viewers are seeing the skipped frams and quality decrease, and stream labs is not picking it up
i want to maximise my fps on a cpu heavy game i got an amd ryzen 5 4500 and an rtx 2060 i have the streaming set as nvidia nvenc but im still running around 90fps and my bitrate is set at 5500 what should i do?
yes its zero length
What platform are you using, Twitch, YouTube, Facebook, Trovo, or X?
youtube
lenght is zero and the content in notepad is empty
Then its possible you didn't start the Donation Goal after setting it up.
What's your Internet upload speed? Download speed doesn't matter.
204 mbs and upload of 35
Sounds good! Screen shot Settings > Video and Settings > Output from in Streamlabs Desktop.
And note I have to let the dog out, so I'll be back in a few minutes.
no worries
Is there an easy way to set a delay using Streamlabs console?
@desert briar
Please no advertising or self promotion in any channels or DMs with server members. Please see #rules for more details on our server guidelines.
There is no way to set or add stream delay in Streamlabs Console.
Ahhh rip, thanks for the help Rufus
Is there a way to edit the rows that are displayed in the Event List? I tested the Event List - and so now it has some "fake events" that I would like to remove.
And who let the dog out? Rufus? Rufus?
Please uncheck these two options and set your bitrate to 8000.
If you're still having issues, then cap the FPS in the game to either 60 or 120 AND set the refresh rate on your monitor to either 60 or 120. 60 and 120 divide evenly by 60. Having uncapped in game FPS or a monitor refresh rate that doesn't divide evenly cn causes skipped and lagged frames.
Bwhahahahahahahahahahaha!
so by doing this will it make the stream smooth and watchable?
I don't believe there is a way to edit that as its all taken from your Recent Events. https://streamlabs.com/dashboard#/recentevents
It should be better. Sometimes it take making mutliple tweaks to find the 'sweet spot' so to speak. But definitely uncheck those two circled options; the are definitely not needed.
i'm going to test this out real quick
Yeah - the fake ones don't show up on that list - maybe if I restart Streamlabs - let me try that. On a side note - after opening the ticket - my stream boss is working again. Thanks!
Working now? That's so weird.
Yes. And - when I went to that link you sent me - the fake events disappeared from the list in Streamlabs for some reason. So maybe by me visiting that page, it refreshed the events. Thanks.
ok people I keep getting skipped frame rates whilst trying to stream, its only start while ive been streaming Skull & Bones - at, im at 48% over the last 2 minutes - anyone get any good ideas plz
YAY! You're welcome. Those events could have been leftover test alerts. 🤷♂️
How can we turn on the chat in the program so that it is displayed to me all the time, even when I am sinning in one of them?
Do you have only one monitor?
yes
Are you on a Windows based computer or a Mac?
52% dropped frames over the last 2 minutes
windows
Are you needing assistance?
Thanks for confirming that. Try out the Game Overlay! Note that it doesn't work with some games: https://streamlabs.com/content-hub/post/streamlabs-game-overlay-for-single-monitors
Yes - they were test alerts from me trying to test Stream Boss - but I didn't know how to clear them. I think they disappear when I switch scenes and go back to the original scene with the Event List. Refreshing that web page didn't work. Thanks.
You're welcome.
Hey guys I m knew here so I don't really know how all this works but I need a bit of help. I am a content creator and have a OK microphone (Razer Seiren mini) but it sounds of so I did a bit of research and this video (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PWfn0lB9CzY) suggested me to install a plugin but Streamlabs doesn't seem to detect it even tho I installed it correctly. I am on mac btw
well - anyone got a clue
oof - did you also cap the in game FPS and set the monitor resolution?
yep
Streamlabs Desktop only supports audio VST plugins and I'm not even sure the Mac version supports them. Please put in a ticket for further clarification or support: https://support.streamlabs.com/hc/en-us/requests/new
Cap the in game FPS to 60 or 120; set the monitor refresh rate to 60 or 120 to start with.
Interesting. Are there any other settings below these?
How can I change the size of a window capture? It seems that only way to rescale it is to change the original window's size?
Set the Keyframe and Max B Frame to 2 and test again.
Go into the Layout Editor. If you have the Stream Preview, swap it out for the Editor Display. Then you can use the drag handles to resize sources.
@gritty isle ok my friend done that - the streamlabs troubleshooter wants me to lover my encoder settings
the stream is smooth now but its still ruff
You need to give it less work or help it work more efficiently. Capping the in game FPS and setting the monitor refresh rate can help it work more efficiently.
@gritty isle thank you
Try upping the bitrate to 9000 or 10000 and see if that helps any. It might not but worth a shot.
I meant like I have a window I want to capture and have window capture set up for it, but it doesn't let me resize it at all.
When you click on a source to select it, do you see the green outline with drag handles?
So apparently it was like shadow locked or something and locking and unlocking fixed it...
it helped a bit, the best way i could describe where we are at is the stream is at 30 fps and brefly sometimes has its perfect moments where the stream is 1080 60 fps and go quality but then goes back down to 720p 30fps
Glad you got it sorted.
Are you on Wifi or wired ethernet?
wifi
Dident work
Weird. And you completed the on boarding in the Streamlabs Music app with your email address and your channel links?
Go ahead and submit a ticket on this: https://support.streamlabs.com/hc/en-us/requests/new There's not much else we can try.
what’s up peeps ? trying to get some colabcam stuff worked out .. i send link and they click and i get thier vid and audio .. they get my audio but not my video .. my cam is selected in the colab cam settings but no dice
Are you near the access point or are there walls in between? Sounds like perhaps your upstream bandwidth to the access point may be fluctuating.
the router is right next to me
Its Done
i have to start it from streamlabs website ?
Okay. About the only other option I can suggest is lower some of the quality options in the game to make it less taxing on your system. You could also try a clean install of the AMD drivers.
Yes! Click the Start Goal button.
ill have to try a clean install of the amd drivers

I don't use Collab Cam... Are you sharing your camera or screen?
i'm going to get another opinion on this from my mate in IT and if that doesn't work then i'll be back, thank you so much for the help @gritty isle i apricate you taking time out of your day to help me on this issue!
You're welcome!
@gritty isle indeed and i can see it on screen and i can also see them on colab cam .. but they cant see me … in each colab cam settings there is a drop down for what cam the guest will see and as well which mic .. i pic mine and they can hear me@but not see
Did you choose a Webcam source or another video source? I don't have a web cam so I can't test that locally.
@gritty isle yeah i selected my webcam source that is working for the stream and me .. just wont goto them for some reason
Screen shot your Collab Cam settings please. Let's see if anything seems amiss.
Im trying to figure out if there any more themes I can use for stream lab console it seems pretty limited compared to the PC version with the themes layouts
The only layouts you can use in Streamlabs Console are those shown on the Streamlabs Console web site. I get that those are limited in selection and there's not a way to use anything outside those selections.
where i can find the donation goal tab in streamlabs website please help
Seems like you've got it right. I'd delete the Collab Cam source, wait a minute, restart Streamlabs Desktop, and add the Collab Cam source back.
this also shows up on the colab cam guest side of things.. i assume this shouldn’t be crossed out ..
Gotcha 👌
OH! Check you Collab Cam source and if its hidden, click the eyeball icon to unhide it.
all eyes are good 🙂
Interesting. Are you testing this locally or with a friend who is remote?
And in your System Settings, Streamlabs Desktop is allowed access to your camera?
yes .. and it works fine as a web cam for stream and zero issues when it’s there and or recording .. just the colab cam guest can’t see it
Okay weird. Let me confer on this... May I ping you in a bit if I have futher questions or troubleshooting steps?
yup
If you add the camera as a Video Capture Source, does that work, I mean, you see the video?
Is there something up with the app store in streamlabs its saying its not avilable at the moment
This can happen if you log in with a platform, like Trovo, X, or TikTok. If you're logged in with Twitch, YouTube, or Facebook, log out, restart Streamlabs Desktop, log back in, and try again. See below on how to log out/log in. 👇

it worked after starting the donation goal but the donation is not getting update can you help in that also
strange now that I am logged in with twitch and not streamlabs its working
Not updating how? You've received Tips via your Streamlabs Tip URL and the goal hasn't updated?
Sometimes logging in at the website and fix this issue as well. Glad its working for you now.
no no i am getting money from donation tab will it get update ?
and the donation goal on streamlabs is getting update
It will only track tips made via your Streamlabs Tip URL. It has no way of knowing if people donate to you via other means like directly to your PayPal or StreamElements donation link.
okay got it but the donation bar of streamlabs website is getting update of the donation but no this streamlabel
And to confirm, you have received a tip since starting the donation goal?
yeah i can add the donation from the app which i am getting and i checked after starting but not getting update
Quit Streamlabels. Go here https://streamlabs.com/dashboard#/recentevents, click Live Actions, then click Restart Session on Streamlabels.
Then launch Streamlabels and see if the file updates.
When I try to multistream on youtube, it says this error code
What can I do?

YAY! You're welcome!
i don't know if this is the right place to do that but, i'd like to get some help, my twitch account was suspended for a day due to something that has happened on ometv. therefore i wanna prevent that accident like ishowspeed does when he streams, so my question is, how to do exactly like the screenshot below. i stream on OBS
OBS Studio?
I'd ask over at the OBS Studio discord: https://obsproject.com/discord
alright, thank you
Hey guys, does Streamlabs not support AV1 encoding yet for YouTube?
also, i'd like to know how to make the actual chat overlay appear on my screen instead of only on the stream
Not yet but its in the works.
so i can read messages (i dont have a second screen)
How long has that been the case? We talking soon or "soon"
Its currently available in the Streamlabs Desktop Preview build.
Not yet in the live build.
Ah, I'll just grab that build
Hey, Streamlabs no longer recognizes my followers. Does anyone know what I can do about it?
There's not a way to do that that I know of right off hand with OBS Studio. They might have some suggestions over in their Discord.
Refreshing the connection between Streamlabs and the platform will resolve this.

Quick question do you know if it works for Fortnite?
I thought you weren't interested in the actual bar itself, you just wanted the text.
It should. For best results, run Fortnite in windowed-full screen.
Alright thanks.
Okay just to clarify so I don't feel like an idiot. STV-AV1 is my GPU and AOM is some CPU version
I am having the same issue. It started asking me for my email address everytime even though it already had my two channels filled in. It doesn't appear to be accepting my email or allowing me to add the music back as a source.
I believe that is correct as far as I understand that encoder.
Please go ahead and submit a ticket on that: https://support.streamlabs.com/hc/en-us/requests/new I was not able to duplicate this at my end and I didn't see it a new, known issue.
yeah exactly
That's what Google says so I'm just guessing. I would highly suggest changing the naming convention for the average person who won't be bothered to do basic research.
Post that feed back in the #preview-testing channel.
I submitted a ticket.
Example on regular OBS they clarify it's Nvidia AV1
Great! Be patient and they'll get to you.
Then don't worry if the bar isn't updating. If the data in the Streamlabels file is updating, your good to go.
Seems like it is effecting multiple people.
bro bar is updating but the streamlabels data is not i want streamlabels data to be updated
Ah, then I was understanding the opposite, my apologies.
It does seem that way. If they get multiple tickets, the issue gets more visibility. But please don't open more than one ticket. I meant reports from multiple people, not one person opening multiple tickets.
Are you logging in in Streamlabels with your platform (YouTube, Twitch, Facebook) or your Streamlabs ID?
yes with my facebook page
And so far, for example, the file says $0.00/$500.00, even though you have received a tip since starting the goal and that tip was made via your Streamlabs Tip URL and not directly to your PayPal or Credit Card?
And if you look at the label in Streamlabels, it looks like this?
actually the amount which i am recieving is from the upi and donation goal is not updating in streamlabels donation goal
but getting update in streamlabs bar
looks like this
Okay, then sadly I'm not sure what's going on with your Streamlabels. I'm not able to duplicate this behavior on my end. Please submit a ticket here https://support.streamlabs.com/hc/en-us/requests/new.
can you please check i think i have used the open bracked and closed bracked
which is not on token maybe coz of this it's not updating ?
It has to be the braces { }, parenthesis won't work.
And it looks like you manually put in the numbers rather than using the tokens?
Or maybe it works different when connected via Facebook.
Hey yall! Hoping someone might be able to assit with an issue im having with alert sounds! The ogg file I am trying to use for my follower alert isnt coming through on my stream. It just comes through as the generic alert sound. This isnt an issue for any of my other alerts, just follow alert. The other alerts, my chosen sounds come through fine. If anyone has any suggestions on how to fix, please let me know! Thanks!
Do you have any variations for the Follow alert?
@gritty isle Good afternoon! How do I stream live shorts without the black borders appearing?
Yep! Got it fixed! You're a genius sir lol, I figured it was something I did!
You're welcome!
Using Streamlabs Mobile or Streamlabs Desktop? And I'm guessing you mean YouTube Shorts?
Streamlabs mobile..I want to do live vertically but the edges are black and the image layers don't want to stay
I'd create a New Scene and see if that happens with the New Scene. Could be an issue with the current scene.
I put the scene and it doesn't want to save
I have already created a new scene, but the image to be below the game screen does not appear
With screen sharing, I think you can only really use the screen share option. I've never tried screen sharing via my iPhone so I don't have any experience with which to offer a good solution. Sorry.
my audio isn't playing when I use window capture, but works with anything else, can some1 help?
Every time i launch streamlabs it wants me t ore log in to my account but all my scenes webcams and stuff dont save so i have to remake the stream setup in streamlabs everytime.
😔What a shame... My computer is bad and I want to live vertically on my cell phone, just like my colleague, but she did it on her computer
Streamlabs Desktop launching as if it is a fresh/like it's the first time using it?
The "acting like it's a fresh restart" is due to certain background processes not closing properly. First, please close Streamlabs Desktop.
Then open your task manager. Please press "Ctrl + Shift + Esc" on your keyboard to bring up your Task Manager.
Please select "More Details" at the bottom if you don't see the percentages of resources used.
Check for any running programs called "Streamlabs," "Electron," or "Obs64". If you find either of these processes running, please right-click and end the process. https://gyazo.com/d6b9babb076875ee5889983b532948e1
Then, reopen Streamlabs Desktop. This should resolve it but if it doesn't please submit a ticket at https://support.streamlabs.com/hc/en-us/requests/new and our team would be able to assist you further.
didnt get back my original stream setup only the most recent time i logged in again.
This should resolve it but if it doesn't please submit a ticket at https://support.streamlabs.com/hc/en-us/requests/new and our team would be able to assist you further.
Are you using the Global Audio settings (Settings > Audio) or are you using source specific audio capture sources?
Reselect your Desktop Audio device. Some Windows Updates will change the device ID's and thus invalidate devices that were in use.
What you see there is the previous device ID for what ever device you are using.
That works, thanks
Especially check this after the monthly cumulative updates.
You're welcome!

Click the :gear: at the bottom left of Streamlabs Desktop. Then the logout button should be at the bottom left of the popup as shown:

can anyone help me with follows not poping up
what>
@dense igloo when ppl follow they dont pop up on my live stream
Refreshing the connection between Streamlabs and the platform will resolve this.
Please follow the instructions exactly in this guide: https://streamlabs.com/content-hub/post/how-to-disconnect-your-streamlabs-account.
Don't skip the log out steps! To log out of the Streamlabs web site, click your PFP in the upper right corner of the web site and choose Log out. See the image below on how to log out in Streamlabs Desktop.
👉 NOTE: **This will not go back and capture any events that were missed. Events are sent over the API once and if they aren't detected, that event will never be sent again.
You'll need a new event (new follow on Twitch, new subscriber on YouTube, etc) as verification. I can follow on Twitch or subscribe on YouTube for verification if you like. An unfollow/refollow or unsubscribe/resubscribe won't trigger a new alert.**
👉 NOTE: The guide has sections for the 4 platforms we have full integration with, Twitch, YouTube, Facebook, and Trovo. So only follow the section for the platform you're using.
👉 NOTE: You must not be live when you follow this guide. So if you’re live, end the stream first.
Log out/Log in: https://i.gyazo.com/d85a0f693148ea5b9e4c6b03d7cbf703.png
👉 IMPORTANT: Once you have completed the guide, go back to the Streamlabs web site https://streamlabs.com/dashboard#/recentevents, click the Live Actions tab, scroll all the way to the bottom and click the Reload Widgets button. Then launch Streamlabs Desktop and log back in there.
is this normal, or are the yield symbols showing issues?
That’s normal and nothing to worry about.
so i have disconnected streamlabs as stated above.
logged out of the website, then removed it from connections
now its as simple as logging back in?
i clicked on "log in" and tapped log in with twitch got the image above.
refreshed connections but doesnt show any streamlabs connections
Now go back to the Streamlabs web site, log in with your Twitch and click the Reload Widget button. THEN log in in Streamlabs Desktop.
Did you authorize the connection or not?
where is the reload widget button?
i did authorize it
im trying to go live, but trying to resolve this issue.
Please go to your Twitch Connections https://www.twitch.tv/settings/connections and screen shot the Streamlabs connection.
Slow down and let’s troubleshoot.
It’s under Other Connections. You might need to scroll down.
its there now, context im used to using obs studio, i am using streamlabs for alerts and donations.
all these issues happened once i reached affiliate
I understand. Please be patient and follow the process.
of course, thank you.
Now go to your Steamlabs Recent Event page https://streamlabs.com/dashboard#/recentevents, click Live Events, then click the Reload Widget button.
reloaded
Great, now launch OBS Studio and go to the scene with your Alert Box source. You don’t need to be live. Let me know when ready.
ready
let me give quick context. before reaching out
before reaching out, if i was to hit the test follow and test dono. it worked and showed up on screen.
Okay great, is the Twitch channel linked in your Discord profile the correct channel?
Yes, I understand test alerts worked but follow alerts don’t appear when live.
it is!
Okay, I’ll follow now. You should see the alert in the preview window in OBS Studio and your Recent Events page should update.
You’re welcome!
you def save me rufus thanks a ton!
You’re welcome! Glad we got it resolved! 
Can anyone show me how to export my highlights onto twitch if possible?
can you guys help me with something
plz
my messages won't pop up in my chatbox at all
hello
For the last few months I’ve had nothing but crashes currently at the computer store after doubling my ram, apparently SLOBS isn’t meant to be doing this, did a reinstall of slobs before that a reinstall of windows how can I fix this? And stop it taking all my memory, I how have 64gb and it also takes forever to load. It usually settles down to about 3-4mb about an hour
hey i cant log into my twitch through my streamlabs desktop app. i cant even create an ID. i keep clicking it and it does nothing. it loads for half a second with a buffer wheel and stops. ive tried reinstalling it 3 times and its the same issue. im convinced this software is a piece of junk
That’s a lot browser sources! I’d create a new Scene Collection from scratch and just add a Game Capture source on one scene and see how things go.
Having issues logging in/the login button is unresponsive?
Your default browser in Windows is causing issues with logging into Streamlabs Desktop. The login popup relies on the default browser set in Windows, so you won't be able to log in if it's blocked. Follow these steps to fix it:
- Press the Windows key on your keyboard or go bottom left and click the Windows logo.
- Search for "default apps". It may be different in Windows 10 and Windows 11.
- Find the default apps section and close Streamlabs Desktop
- Change your default browser to a new browser. For example, if you're currently on Chrome, you'll want to change it to Edge or Firefox. (Screenshot for reference: https://prnt.sc/48ZdLCQCgi8D)
- Once you've changed this, reopen Streamlabs Desktop and see if the same issue occurs when attempting to log in.
What platform?
Do you have Custom HTML/CSS enabled in the Chatbox settings?
I’ve actually just cleared most of them out, before this picture but need most of them depending on overlay scenes I even deleted some scenes completely and have had it like this for probably 6 -12months or more but only been an issue last 2 months
Twitch I see. OBS isn’t a platform.
yea
how do i check
Rufus helped me get my setting back! Thank you! Now i need to know how to change my youtube channel to my new one. It is the primary on my account. (this is how I screwed up last time)
I’d still create a new scene collection and recreate your scenes and sources from scratch. I bet that scene collection is corrupted.
i did that and i keep getting this message " {"status":401,"message":"invalid csrf token"} "
in the browser
You’ll need to submit a ticket if you want to swap out the change that is tied to your Primay account in Streamlabs: https://support.streamlabs.com/hc/en-us/requests/new. Don’t try and swap it manually.
Thanks I’ll give it a go not how I planned to spend my day 🤣
Haha I will never try that again myself. Thanks for getting me back to square 1. Ill follow your link.
how do i check
I did just delete a whole folder with a tonne of things and it’s still at 15000 so hasn’t made much difference at all yet 😬
You’re welcome! 
it says disabled
What default web browser did you switch to? And did you have Streamlabs Desktop NOT running when you switched the default web browser?
i switched from edge to chrome and i didnt have it running
Switch back to Edge and try again.
Ive been having this issue for days now, but donations themselves arent showing up. All other alerts show up just fine. They were working earlier this week but stopped working Thursday. Any ideas on whats going on?
Also my streamlabs desktop app wont load at all, just sits blank now too. Ive tried re-authing to twitch and still not working.
And if you take the Widget URL and paste into a web browser does it work?
Interesting. Go into OBS Studio, go to Settings > Advanced > Sources (I believe. I’m away from my PC at the moment) and uncheck Enable Browser Source Hardware Acceleration, restart OBS, and try again.
So they don’t appear on your Recent Events or Donation History?
They show on the web browser recent history, but when I hit repeat it still wont pop up. Doing a test donation shows tho.
still doesn't work
Screen shot your Donation alert settings please.
Are you using a VPN or Ad Blocker perhaps?
Not sure if thats what you mean.
Again, nothing changed from weds to thursday, they just stopped working thursday for some reason. 🤔
I was hoping it was just a fluke and things would kick back in but no go.
no
I would turn off Custom HTML/CSS.
I tried that, still wont work. I also reset code and still no go.
Screen shot the settings again, there’s more that you didn’t have in either screen shot above.
What’s your default web browser?
this?
Chrome
Quit OBs Studio, switch your default web browser to Edge and try again.
And you’ve always had the minimum to alert set to 2.00?
@gritty isle trying to log back into stream labs but my auth isn’t working when I click authenticate it does this
yes, nothing has changed in months XD
tbh its been at 2.00 for 8 yrs lol
And only Donation alerts don’t work?
Yep everything else works!
it still doesn't work
Never mind @gritty isle cleared cache and tried again thanks for help today
I also tried clearing cache with my issue, still no go.
You’re welcome.
Okay @willow jetty and @sterile girder , I’m not sure what’s going on with your issues, please each of you submit a ticket please: https://support.streamlabs.com/hc/en-us/requests/new
yo randomly my streamlabs just broke and now I cant move any windows images etc
Ok thanks for trying!
Go into the Layout Editor. If you have the Stream Preview, swap it out for the Editor Display.
Hi, Is there a way to reset the loyalty points but keep the watchtime hours?
You’re welcome. Weird issue for sure.
Sadly there isn’t except going entry by entry and processing all entries manually.
Make sure the source is not locked. 🔒

In my last stream I have it saved and my stream audio isnt there. Is that from twitch or streamlabs console? I didnt have any trouble from my first 2 streams on twitch
Trying to solve a problem. No matter what, StreamLabs OBS says "Connecting To Chat" and "error loading data"...anyone have any suggestions?
ok ty
Hi
Click the Refresh Chat button at the top of the embedded chat dock. If that does not work, log out, restart Streamlabs Desktop, and log back in. If you’re live, you’ll have to do the reload once you end your stream.
I am trying to stream from streamlabs and its dropping frames while my internet is fast. my bitrate is at 1000
You’re welcome.
Dropped frames is a network issue, either locally at your end or between you and the ingest for the platform you’re using.
what is the ingest?
@grave kestrel ```md
Having issues with Dropped Frames?
- Dropped frames are a notification that let you know that something is wrong with the network or internet connection you are using. There can be several different causes for this issue.
- To start troubleshooting this issue, we would recommend:
- Restarting your router/modem
- Disabling your LAN adapter and re-enabling it {Link 2}
- Changing the ingest server in Settings > Stream of Streamlabs Desktop (do not use Auto)```For further steps please see our Content Hub article here:
:link: https://streamlabs.com/content-hub/post/dropped-frames-cpugpu-issues-and-improving-stream-quality
Disable and enable LAN adapter:
:link: https://www.windowscentral.com/how-enable-or-disable-wi-fi-and-ethernet-network-adapters-windows-10
Go to Settings > Stream > (scroll down to the bottom) > Stream to custom ingest
switching from twitch studio here is there anyway i can get the chat to show up on my main monitor while im gaming cause my second monitor is a small portable monitor that will cut off the chat box
Not working!
Anyone know how to get audio in my twitch vod my most recent stream the audio was not there. I had music playing and I'm pretty sure was copyright or DMCA but it was my first stream on streamlabs console too
if theres copyright music in the vod its going to be muted no way around that
recommend using a no-copyright playlist from spotify or something
ok didnt know if that was the problem I will have to try that next time thank you
no problem
Hi , why my alerts doesent work?
its not working for me. Please help and Im streaming right now
Any have any clue why I keep getting “Can’t connect to Ps5 you want to connect.”
Are you streaming to Twitch?
All alerts or just one alert?
all alerts , and i stream on youtube
i just start streaming and was looking for some alerts but didnt show up
Do you perhaps have Unlimited Alert Moderation Delay enabled? If so, disable that setting. Please go here https://streamlabs.com/dashboard#/alertbox and if you have Unlimited Alert Moderation Delay enabled, disabled it then click Save Settings at the bottom of the page. Also go here https://streamlabs.com/dashboard#/recentevents and make sure your alerts are not paused. If this icon is a play button, your alerts were paused. https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/962371235789025360/1147374507238101072/IMG_1019.png
Yes
Huh. Okay, let's run through the Twitch Test. See the post below from the bot.
Be sure to select the Medium duration and select many ingests in your region, not just the one nearest you.
At the end, screen shot the results. And for the best possible test, quit all applications and just run the Twitch Test and don't use your Internet connection from any other device while the test is running.
@grave kestrel
Please run this twitch test tool to find out the best server (https://r1ch.net/projects/twitchtest). Be sure to run the test for either Medium or Long, as short won't give you the most accurate results and be sure to select your region from the listed options (if the regions are not applicable to you, please select 5-6 servers that are near you). You're looking for at least a quality of 84.
Once you've found a good server go to Settings > Stream > Stream to custom ingest and you can manually select your server.
Choose the next closest one to you geographically.
I did do that
And screen shot the results.
did we ever find out how much her upload is from his ISP yet?
what’s up
Her*
Upload speed won’t matter if they are having dropped frames.
@gritty isle couldn’t figure it out i opened ticket for the colab cam..
My problem is I also notice it when Im in a game but I have it at the lowest setting possible
Okay great. They’ll get to you.
I have it on the 2nd to last one and still having issues
Is Streamlabs Desktop reporting dropped frames or is just something you or a viewer is seeing?
both
using wifi, how many devices on the network sharing bandwidth too, it will be different when hardwired ..
got a question .. been trying to stream to instagram .. and the website tutorial mentions if you want to multi stream .. do this .. but i don’t want to multi stream.. i want to go to insta only … when i try to shut of twitch it says i cant cause i used that to sign in .. i used my stream labs account and when you first sign in it asks for what one you want to use and i can select twitch or youtube .. how does one stream only to insta ?
The Instagram integration currently isn’t available on the Mac side, sorry about that. I don’t know when it will be available.
i’m using pc
I guess I remembered wrong.
i can dual stream .. but it keeps crashing and blah blah ..
?
i have both pc and mac 🙂 i was using the mac to colab cam:)
Please link your Discord and then ask over in the #ultra-support channel.
@pine moss
If you are a Streamlabs Ultra Subscriber or All-Stars member
Link your Discord under integrations for access to our Ultra/VIP roles and private chats
:point_right: https://streamlabs.com/dashboard/#/settings/integrations
:star: upgrade to Ultra here: https://streamlabs.com/ultra?refl=discord
(If only I could type…)
Then you’ll need to reach out to your ISP. Tell them you are trying to live stream to Twitch and are getting disconnected. Be patient but note most call screeners hear the word ‘streaming’ and think you’re trying to watch Netflix.
Ahhhhhhhhh
Its not the game when I load it on streamlabs?
Dropped frames are a network issue.
ok
only when a game is open... hmm any game? or specific
any
because there were some cases someone using MS Flight sim, and it was a MS Flight sim issue.. another one had certain several games open and we looked at logs, it was a PC hardware issue...
MSFS can use a lot of upstream bandwidth.
you'd be surprised i looked at my friends laptop, i found hardware issues since day 1 she turned on the laptop lol, her ssd was fault from the start
I was doing marbles
I once had an issue with Spectrum where my upload speed would be 40 then suddenly it would be 5 then suddenly 22. All over the place. Eventually they found a damaged connector on the side of my apartment building.
Took two months to get that fixed. Dropped frames aren’t easy to fix.
geez
may want to check if anything raising suspicion in the event viewer of the laptop. Since you are on a laptop, you may want to check your Power Perfomance Plan incase you are running on battery too. If it's plugged in all the time or during stream, may want to check if it is set to performance too. Because looking at the twitch tool, you are using WiFi 6E network adapter, but if your laptop is limiting you, then your hardware is throttling you.
And it’s not an MSI motherboard?
https://www.reddit.com/r/LenovoLegion/comments/11d8ltd/legion_5_fps_drops/ According to this thread regarding the Legion Pro 5 it is a Known Issue
Its on balanced.
Recommend checking for any Bios and Driver updates via your manufacturer as it has been an issue with Legion Pro 5 laptops since 2022
Already did that
dont want to post my long URL Search for google, but if you search with these key words "legion pro 5 streaming games dropping frames" there are lots of threads pointing at your Laptop
because you did mention... Any Game
so that points to me as a hardware issue
No. That causes more problems.
I put it on best performance
I did my first couple of Youtube live streams today and both of them stopped on their own and I’m not sure why. The first one was at 30:01 and the second one at 1:26:00. The stream stopped on Youtube but Streamlabs still showed it was streaming. Watching the stream back there was no buffering. Is there any way to find out what happened after the fact? Or ideas on what to check?
Did YouTube note any issues? This can happen is the connection between you and the YouTube ingest drops unexpectedly.
Hi all, cna someone help me out here... I logged out of Twitch cause I was trying to Multistream and when I logged back into Streamlabs via a Streamlabs account, all my sources and layout were gone! It's like it was opened for the first time! What happened and how do I fix this and get my layout back?
I tried logging back in with Twitch and anything else and my whole layout is just blank 😦

@gritty isle I checked for those, there were none. I don't know why but after I created that streamlabs account it's like it reset StreamlabsOBS to factory settings or something
is there any place the layout and sources I had are saved locally where I can get them back or am I just effed?
Log in with your Twitch rather than your Streamlabs ID.
Then you;l need to submit a ticket. Sounds like there’s something up with your Steamlabs account. https://support.streamlabs.com/hc/en-us/requests/new.
@gritty isle OK I did that... can I just kill that account I created? I did'nt have a SL account before, I just used twitch, now even after I (tried) to log out of that and just use Twitch it's insisting on using the SL account
Don’t try me fix it manually, you might lose data. Your account holds all your cloud backup, widget settings, merch shop, donation history, etc. don’t risk losing that. Just wait on the ticket.
😦
Only the staff can assist with account issues. Us Volunteers aren’t employed by Streamlabs so we don’t have any access.
I understand... I just don't get how making a SL account blew out all my settings and basically made it so I have to start from scratch
There no way to tell and no sense in speculation.
any idea why lables is just a blank screen on the main screen? Yet when in the settings menu things show up?
Quit Streamlabels, download a fresh installer, run the installer as administrator and let it install over your existing installation. Then reboot your PC and try again. Mine did this earlier today and a reinstall fixed it.
No need to uninstall first.
cheers!
When I start my stream it plays as if it’s a TikTok live, in portrait mode and really stretches
It looks fine in my streamlabs app though Is there any way to adjust the video so it looks like a regular twitch stream again?
In Streamlabs Desktop, go to Settings -> Video and make sure that the Output Resolution looks right. Usually this can happen if someone logs in with TikTok as TikTok forces the portrait orientation. So, for example, if the output field show 1080x1920, that should be 1920x1080.
If you're Output Resolution looks as it should be, then right click on your capture source, choose Transform and then choose Fit to Screen.
I need help with Streamlabs i am logging in but when i select Login with Twitch button nothing happens.

@gritty isle Thanks i switched Default Browser then changed it back to Edge. It worked and i was able to log in.
You’re welcome.

So is this a self promotion discord server?
@lyric drift
Please no advertising or self promotion in any channels or DMs with server members. Please see #rules for more details on our server guidelines.
I am having a problem of getting alerts to actually show up on stream. I have watched about 10 different videos most of them say roughly the same thing and I have also fidgeted around for a while on my own and can't seem to figure it out. My alerts work just fine when I test them out on the website or the desktop app but when someone actually follows nothing pops up on stream and my mini feed doesn't refresh. So I have come to the conclusion that it has to probably be something wrong with the mini feed not wanting to refresh or something but I am completely out of ideas on how to fix it. I am really hoping someone here has had a similar problem and is able to help. Please I need it. Thank you.
I need help. I am putting game capture and I have set it to auto but it's not capturing anything.
I have started Streamlabs in admin and deleted the source and reput it and it still did not work. I get "Looking for a game to capture"
hello
my chat widget is showing up in preview and every stream, but not for me, personally, in-game. i have tried everything i could find - disabling browser hardware acceleration, restarting streamlabs desktop, clearing the cache, using browser source vs. widget source (you know what i mean), adjusting the layers, everything - it's just not showing up.
i've tried it on steam and windows store, the problem persists
i have absolutely no idea how to proceed and feel like i've exhausted every possible avenue.
@wispy latch is it possible to link a facebook fundraiser to the donations widget?
Hello! In streamlabs desktop i cant change the scenes or display capture or anything,,, i could before when i streamd on twitch but now when i stream on youtube everything have changed... how can i get admin back?
whenever i'm streaming, my game feels like it has major input delay. any fix?
A follow up question, do i need to get ultra to edit my stream scenes?
Hi! Sorry, I need a little help here. I'm trying to record a gameplay but there's a problem; The game goes alright, it doesn't lag at all when I'm playing it, but when I see the record is all laggy. I use a PNGtuber and the PNGtuber seem to be ok, like it's not lagging, it's just the game image on the record, dunno how to explain it better... Sorry, english is not my first language D: But, could be there a way to solve that?
No. Ultra is not required for that. All the features in Streamlabs Desktop are free as its based off the open source of OBS Studio. You can enhance your Streamlabs experience with Ultra but it is in no means a requirement to do so.
Afternoon folks, I've logged into Streamlabs Desktop via my Google Account (Same email as my YouTube Creator account) and even though I have a streamkey, I am getting the "YouTube Account not enabled for livestreaming" error. I have previously livestreamed before from OBS Studio, and the details are the same. Any ideas why this wouldn't work? I can't check the key manually as I cannot log out of YouTube on Streamlabs, as its automatically attached itself to my account due to the gmail login.
What do you mean by 'Google Account'? We don't have a way of logging in with email except if you click on YouTube or Streamlabs ID.
Apologies, I created my account with a steamlabs ID via my Google email address. It has now "synced" with my youtube account with the same email, but I get the error above.
thank you
You're welcome.
Pressing "Fix" loads up the studio stream on my YouTube account, but it acts like it is not paired to my Streamlabs Desktop. I then get the latter error, pressing "Enable Live Streaming" takes me again to the YouTube page that allows you to start a new stream.
I would log into the Streamlabs web site with https://streamlabs.com/dashboard#/settings/account-settings/platforms and make sure the YouTube account shown there is the correct channel.
Huh, the merged account there did not have the correct channel name... Weird. Will attempt to fix now!
That seems to have done the job! Thank you kindly @gritty isle 🙂
You're welcome! 
Hey, I have the problem that the TTS Donation breaks off in the middle.
Hello everyone, i seem to have a problem with my follow/sub/raid notifications not working, i've checked to see if my alerts are paused or not, and im almost certain they arent.
I've also checked my alert box and i've checked the link in OBS Studio, checked if my follow/sub/raid alerts are enabled and they are.
what am i doing wrong?
Do you perhaps have Unlimited Alert Moderation Delay enabled? If so, disable that setting. Please go here https://streamlabs.com/dashboard#/alertbox and if you have Unlimited Alert Moderation Delay enabled, disabled it then click Save Settings at the bottom of the page. Also go here https://streamlabs.com/dashboard#/recentevents and make sure your alerts are not paused. If this icon is a play button, your alerts were paused. https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/962371235789025360/1147374507238101072/IMG_1019.png
Are you using a TTS voice with an actual name, like Brian, or one that has a country or dialect name, like English (US)?
Hey, i use "Hans" - Germany
So do you...
- Not see the alerts
OR
- Not hear the alerts
OR
- Not see and hear the alerts
Switch to a different name, save the settings for the Donation alert, wait a minute or two, change back to Hans, save the settings for the Donation alert, and then reply one of the alerts and see how it goes.
i do not see and do not hear the alerts, the test alerts are also not coming through on my OBS Studio, only on the Streamlabs page
done - i will notify you
Then I would, in OBS Studio, remove the Browser Source you have to the Alert Box, restart OBS Studio, go to your Alert Box Widget page https://streamlabs.com/dashboard#/alertbox and copy the Wiget URL and add in a new Browser Source in OBS Studio and paste in the URL. Also open a web page and paste in the Widget URL and click the test buttons on the Alert Box web page. You should see and hear the alerts in both the Preview Window in OBS Studio and in the other web page.
on OBS nothing is happening, on the web page i only see the alert
Okay, add another new Browser Source in OBS Studio, don't paste in anything in the URL field, and screen shot the properties for the Browser Source.
all of a sudden the sound kicked in on the webpage, so webpage works
unfortunately that didn't help
Then I'd definitely put in a ticket https://support.streamlabs.com/hc/en-us/requests/new so the staff can investigate and troubleshoot. I'm not sure why this is happening. TTS is usually very reliable.
No, don't paste anything into the URL field or did the brand new Browser Source have that URL in it already?
its the default URL that was already in it
chat box is not appearing!
Interesting. That seems new. What version of OBS Studio do you have? I've got the latest stable release, 30.0.2 and in my brand new Browser Source I see...
I don't have an FPS field.
chatbox is not appearing pls help
That's a fairly old version. Any reason you haven't updated?
What platform are you using, Twitch, YouTube, Facebook, Trovo, or X?
tried updating it, but it wont run the auto update. I would have to redownload it and set everything up again. And im really bad at setting everything up again
youtube but it came back after i login to streamlabs
if i refresh source
it goes again
