Twitch Alerts are not displaying in the Stream

Open servusrene opened this issue 1 year ago • 5 comments

Hey,

I recently added Twitch notifications to my stream via the browser widgets. Unfortunately, the notifications are not displayed in the stream.

Can you please check why this is the case?

Many thanks and best regards, René

Probably unsupported video format by iOS.

Browser widget

The iOS browser does not support all audio and video formats. The formats below works.

Preferred audio formats: .mp3 and .wav Preferred image formats: .gif and .png

You can find supported "Safari on iOS" formats here: https://caniuse.com/

Only use one browser widget for audio as it seems iOS only can play audio in one browser at a time.

Create and add a full screen browser widget to a scene

  1. Create a widget in Settings -> Scenes -> Widgets.
  2. Set its type to Browser.
  3. Copy-paste your URL into the URL field.
  4. Set width and height to match the overlay size (and stream size). Normally 1920 and 1080. Alternatively use "Scale to fit video width".
  5. Add the widget to one or more scenes in Settings -> Scenes -> My scene

@eerimoq I have noticed that the alerts are not displayed at all in the browser on the iPhone. I am currently using png images and wav audio files.

@eerimoq why is the issue closed?

Will likely not try to fix this as the alerts do not even work in Safari on the iPhone. Probably Twitch that does not support iPhone.
