Streaming with 1 monitor can be pretty awkward since you don't have a second monitor to read your Twitch chat, KZread chat, Facebook chat etc on. Today, I'll show you how to see your chat while streaming with OBS Studio by using a program that let's you show your Twitch chat in game, as wel as any other platforms when being a bit creative. The program allows you to show your stream chat as an overlay on top of the game by making it click-through and a bit transparent.

If OBS doesn't let you make a window transparent -> don't run it as admin cause it blocks the program from controlling the obs dock

You were the only person who was able to solve my issue of chat not showing up on my OBS. The “custom size on stream labs solved the problem. Thank you SO much.
Wow. I just bought a 2nd monitor just to see the comments in my stream so I can reply to them. If I knew this before, I would've not buy that for dual monitor purpose. Very helpful video🤘

Playing windowed screen may lower your game performance by a lot so its good you got a second monitor!
HUGE W video here. I am a smaller streamer and sometimes don't get a lot of chatters and when I do see a chat, it's 3-4 minutes late and they have already left. Can't wait to try this program out!
THANK YOU SO MUCH! Such a life saver, I kept missing chats when streaming with obs, and it was so aggravating! This saved me so much!!!
Thank bro, I needed this for my stream. Still new at this streaming thing. This video helped alot
Bro you have no Idea how much you have helped me with OBS
A little late to this video, be definitely needed this. Great content 👍🏻 Thank you
Amazing content as usual. Thank you!!

this is awesome
Excellent, thank you! The Stream Elements option is the cleanest, allowing me to minimise the extra clutter on my screen while playing, but it misses the events. Is there a way to get chat and events like in the OBS pop out, in a Stream Elements custom overlay?
Thank you man, it works !
Bedankt, maatje!!! 😄
Why is it everywhere I go, whether it's OBS or Streamelements tutorials, nothing looks like or works the same as they show you?
Hey, it's me again. I am writing for other people who may have the same problem to have them write to Slobs support. They helped me and everything works as it should (I'm talking about the first position in the graphics settings but this may change)
Thank you, straight to the point and easy!
didnt work every single time i clicked the chat just dissapeared ive wasted like 50 hours of my life trying to do this. thanks alot

Just because your dumb don’t blame on him dummy bunny kid
For some reason this doesn't work for me anymore. IDK if its the game or what but the window will go transparent, but it won't be visible unless active. I can't see it in game, which is windowed. It just doesn't stay up its weird.
Now I know how to do it! Thanks!!

good work mat, tell me if possible chat box youtube made just one time because every ne stream i need retipe link my chat
Thx my guy, find a free and easy way is super stressful. cheers and thx you.
thank u mate its so helpfull
Fix for Not Working: So what I found was you have to disable 'run as admin' within OBS application properties under advance option in properties and within the computability tab as well to get it to work. So two places where 'run as admin' sneaks its way into your obs compatibility are within "advance" option when you right click on application in taskbar, desktop icon for program, or after navigating to program file location.

Instead of popping out chat you can also use a chat client like chatterino
Thank you so much!
This is helpful but my problem lies in Twitch chat itself 😫 I'm not sure when it started, but my twitch chat doesn't show up chat. I found out that someone was chatting to me when I looked at the chat on OBS(have my Twitch account connected). It's so funny how the OBS shows someone chatting and Twitch itself doesn't, on all platforms(mobile app, website) 😣 I think I'm going back to streaming on KZread I'll try connecting my chat to elements before I go back tho... 1 last troubleshooting
thank you so much

since this video last year, have they implemented a way to overlay without an external program?
thx i was strugeling with this for a lone time
Is the transparent chat only visible when streaming the game, or is the transparent window also visible when streaming the whole screen (monitor)?
HI. Question. I took notice that you have A LOT of Overlays in Stream Elements. Why is that? What is the benefit of having so many individual Overlay when when you can create a single Overlay Project you can add multiple Overlay for other alerts in that single Overlay Canvas. Could you shed some light on this? Thanks.
Thank you so much! Exactly the information I needed!
Thank you a lot!
Thanks Man!
when i open docks i dont have half of those things, including "chat" button.. Do you have any idea why or how can i fix it? Edit: Figured it out! Just had to connect twitch with username and password instead of stream-key and it worked! Thank you for the tutorial, helped me so much!! :)

if you use SLOBS there is something called Game Overlay which does the same thing as what they showed in the video
Really thankyou

lost count how many times i had to skip back to relisten to what you said i needed to do for stream overlay due to telling us what to do to quickly... but i got there in the end,,,,, not everyone is speedy just so you know
It wont work on yt. I had tried to use the see though thing but whenever i tried to use it it wouldnt work or it would ask me to print somthing.
