Any stream I tried to play from Twire is failing to play, displaying "Stream is no longer live" message, while this isn't true and can be played alsewhere.

Here are some adb logs if it can help, cleaned out for some parts:

This issue can be used to ask general questions on Twire and everythint related to the fork.

~~Hello,

since I wasn't able to find your contact info I ask here. I just found your porject in F-Droid and saw that it is a fork of Pocket Player. I hope this doesn't sound unfriendly but I wonder what are your motivations for forking? It would help me deciding which project to use.

Many thanks in advance!

edit: just found your email. Hope it's fine if I leave this issue open anyway.~~

Twire crashing so much after I update it. I try to clear data, uninstall and reinstalled again but the crashing is still there

How does the ttv.lol work:

See here: https://github.com/saucettv/WorkingTwitchAdBlockers#m3u8-proxies

This Pull request is fixing:

https://github.com/twireapp/Twire/issues/183 https://github.com/twireapp/Twire/issues/216

The main focus of this Pull Request:

since there are no ads on Twire (at least for me) I want to fix the Pink Screen (see below) telling me to wait 30 Seconds

Preview Apk:

• There Should be an APK built automatically below this Pull-Request

Testing:

• is done with the Preview Apk over the Span of one week. (15.05.2021 to 22.05.2021)
• Testing is done on the Samsung Galaxy Tab SM-T510 with Android 10
• How do I notice when the API is getting used: there should be no ADs

Test Result:

• There are small problems with ads getting through from time to time.
  • 1 Ad in about 4 Hours
  • The API developers are still working to improve AD blocking.
  • On some days I got no ADs
• The Problem with the Pink screen is gone. I never had one in the testing period.
• Vods have no ADs blocked

Possible Problems:

• The received .m3u8 file is not using the best servers for your location (e.g. if you are in Germany you are not going to use german servers)
• Example I am from Germany and I get French servers (See CLUSTER="fra06" below):

#EXTM3U
#EXT-X-TWITCH-INFO:NODE="video-edge-18e68c.fra06",MANIFEST-NODE-TYPE="weaver_cluster",MANIFEST-NODE="video-weaver.arn03",SUPPRESS="true",SERVER-TIME="1621155573.89",TRANSCODESTACK="2017TranscodeX264_V2",USER-IP="127.0.0.1",SERVING-ID="*********************", CLUSTER="fra06",ABS="false",VIDEO-SESSION-ID="2508823718899679179",BROADCAST-ID="42066506348",STREAM-TIME="148197.894582",B="false",USER-COUNTRY="RU",MANIFEST-CLUSTER="arn03",ORIGIN="lhr05"

How it works:

• first, there is a ping test send to https://customapi.adress/on
• if the ping is not successful then the default twitch API will be used with the default code
• if the ping is successful then the custom API will be used for getting the initial .m3u8 file
• the code is based on this:
  • https://github.com/TTV-LOL/extensions/blob/main/firefox/js/background.js
  • https://github.com/arthurbolsoni/Purple-adblock/blob/main/firefox/js/background.js

Opt-in

• The Video Proxy is disabled by default
• The Default Video Url is set to "https://api.ttv.lol"
  • This is the Default URL of Purple-adblock
• You can set a custom Url but the API should be based on ttv.lol

Revert to ttv.lol on 15.09.2021

I reverted back to ttv.lol, because of this:

to-do

• [ ] Wait until the Server code is public
• [x] Add Button to disable Proxy
• [x] Add Option for custom Proxy Url

Describe the bug When playing a VOD, the app freezes, forcing me to "wait" or "close app"

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Open a VOD and it'll freeze.

Android 11 A52 5G

Earlier today it worked, seems to have started the last few hours.

OS: Graphene OS / Android 11 Model: Pixel 4a Twire v2.9.3

Standard Twitch Emotes missing (eg LUL). Also typing emote shortcodes in chat (eg LUL) does not translate to emote, just prints text. List of emotes is empty for standard Twitch emotes.

Recently Used, Sub-Emotes and BTTV are working.

Anything I can change in the app to make this work?

1st commit

• Update Android Studio 4.0.1 -> 4.0.2
• Update gradle wrapper to 6.6.1 using git bash

2nd commit

• Fix a few deprecations

3rd commit (check the changelogs)

• material-dialogs 0.8.6.0 -> 0.8.6.2
• ExoPlayer 2.11.4 -> 2.12.0 (unfortunately bloats APK by around 300KB)
• Conscrypt 2.5.0 -> 2.5.1
• Okhttp 3.12.11 -> 3.12.12

4th commit

• Use ContextCompat.getSystemService, which uses the newer way automatically on API 23 and up

5th commit

• Miscellaneous cleanup

6th commit

• Remove a bunch of unused resources

7th commit

• Use the latest material icons
• Convert PNGs to drawable (reduces APK size by around 100KB)

8th commit

• Optimize remaining PNGs with https://ezgif.com/optipng/

I've built an APK and tested (on a Note 9 running Android 10), and everything works as it is supposed to. Here are APKs to test if you want them. Twire.zip

How this works

With Account:

• Your Follows get imported from Twitch
• You can´t unfollow someone that you followed on Twitch
• Wiping follows dosen´t remove Twitch follows from the Database
• You can follow new Channels from within the App
• You can unfollow the Channels that you followed in the App
• Follows from within the App are not synced (because #230)

Without Account:

• You can do nothing, because of Helix. ~- You can follow new Channels from within the App~ ~- You can unfollow the Channels that you followed in the App~ ~- Your Channels get shown in the My Streams Tab when they are live~

Problems with Helix

• The Viewer Count of "Top Games" cannot be fetched (https://twitch.uservoice.com/forums/310213-developers/suggestions/37393114-add-viewer-and-channel-count-in-helix-games-top).
• The Vod Chat cannot be fetched (https://twitch.uservoice.com/forums/310213-developers/suggestions/44063160-vod-chat-for-helix)

Showcase

With Account

• Ubisoft and Bobross are Channels that got imported from Twitch

Without Account

• Bob Ross is used as Showcase Channel

Problems

As mentioned in #236 when V5 is shutting down then everything is going to require an Auth Token. So you can´t make the required API requests without a Twitch Account logged in. But local follows should still be working with the new API.

Fixing

This should be closing: #239 #230 (Maybee #81 and #124)

To-Do

• [x] ~wait for helix rewrite/support (#236)~ Done in 3a1684851a9ccf94757efdb861886fb0d354fe9e
• [x] Fix "GetTwitchUserFollows"
• [x] Fix importing Channels from Twitch

I saw this app on the Play Store, and as apparently the official Twire is only available on F-Droid I decided to report it here. If you are the one who posted the app on the Play Store just disregard this issue and close it.

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.perflyst.twire

Currently, clicking on VODs flagged as for mature audiences causea the stream to fail instantly with a "stream couldnt be played" error message.

Must be since last update 2.9.1. Before I was using the app regularly with nearly no issue ("My Games" doesn´t work since a while).

Now neither VoDs nor streams will play. Getting message "VoD/Stream not could not be played. Try a different quality" (translated from German).

Chat seems to work fine, though.

Using LineageOS 14.1 (Android 7.1.2) on a Sony Xperia Z5 Compact. If I can give you more technical information please tell me how to.

Describe the bug Trying to view vod results in phone becoming unresponsive on both my s22+ (android 13, one ui 5.0) and s10+ (android 13, one ui 5.0) complete with "Twire isn't responding: close app or wait ". Waiting does nothing as the app never becomes responsive. I recently updated from 2.10.2 to 2.10.4 only to find that I could no longer watch vods. I've tried several things to fix the problem including: clearing cache, clearing data, uninstalling and reinstalling app, redownloading app, turning off vod chat(vod chat doesn't work btw), installing 2.10.3 (which also has this exact same problem), restarting phone, power off resetting phone. Both phones are completely up to date. Problem doesn't exist with live streams. Seems there is something special about vods.

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. From Followed Streamers select Aurateur (the best streamer).
2. Click on Broadcasts.
3. Click first video to appear.
4. Watch as phone instantly becomes unresponsive.
5. Give around 30 seconds for Twire isn't responding error message to show.
6. Cry.

Expected behavior Being able to watch vods would be nice. Not causing my phone to pop twire isn't responding would also be nice.

Smartphone (please complete the following information):

• Device: Samsung Galaxy s22+ and Samsung Galaxy s10+ (same problem on both)
• Android Version: Android 13, One UI 5.0
• Twire Version: 2.10.3 & 2.10.4

Additional context / screenshots Both phones have this problem so there is consistency here. I will be rolling back to 2.10.2 until this is fixed as this is completely unacceptable to me.

I installed the application on Android TV, but keyboard control from the remote is not supported. Is it possible to add remote control support? Only the OK key works

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. A clear and concise description of what the problem is. Ex. I'm always frustrated when [...]

With the recent twitch change I reinstalled the app in an attempt to fix it, but forgot to export my follows before that. I use Seedvault for a non-google backup which informed me that Twire does not declare any data for A backup to the Android system.

Describe the solution you'd like A clear and concise description of what you want to happen.

Submit follows and other data to the Backup-API.

Describe alternatives you've considered A clear and concise description of any alternative solutions or features you've considered.

If Privacy is a concern, maybe a toggle-option could be added to opt-in to the backup-API. Other FOSS-Apps like Aegis have gone with that option.

Additional context Add any other context or screenshots about the feature request here.

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. Ads play disrupting the live stream. Proxying the m3u8 request to a country that doesn't serve ads stops them from playing. luminous-ttv does this.

Describe the solution you'd like Support for luminous-ttv. A setting in the options to add the server URL that is running on your local network or possibly even a vps.

Describe alternatives you've considered As far as I know, there are none. I've tried using the official twitch app on my Amazon based tablet and it just crashes.

Additional context luminous-ttv server luminous-ttv extension

Thanks.

https://www.mmo-champion.com/content/10979-Dragonflight-Twitch-Drops-Earn-Rewards-Watching-and-Supporting-Creators says watch at least 4h of content.

I am not sure how this tracking is done, so do you know if watching things in Twire counts towards the 4h goal or do i have to use a clean, adblocker free browser to get this done in the foreground?
