Does your browser inspector say anything?

Hey all! I just noticed something strange.... I went to add two new channels to our channels list and it came back with a:



So, okay something's not working exactly right. So I asked one of our featured streamers to go live and watched the cron jobs until after the scrape was done and nothing. Show's offline in Streams and the stream was not pushed to our Discord as it usually is.

I went ahead and forced a scrape, and still, the streamer shows offline, but if I clicked the offline stream its there and live.

I am not sure what's wrong or how to troubleshoot. It was working fine as of 3/11 and we've done or changed nothing.

Can someone provide any insight?

@Jaxel happy 2024 man... are you going to be updating XenRio and Attendo for X2.3??

I know it's the Easter holiday, so responses may be delayed -- but any feedback or insight would be very help, and appreciated, at the first opportunity -- even a troubleshooting method. This is a huge part of our community.

Thank you!!

Have you tried re-inputting your client id and secret?

You're awesome, @Jaxel - thank you! That's fixed the challenge! Appreciate you.

Well, actually YouTube is still being a bear. It's been so long since I've had to mess with the APIs from Google since it's just always worked.

I don't see Google having a key and a secret key. @Jaxel can you please refresh my memory on the API keys to have XenRio scrape from YouTube or maybe link me to your doc for it?

--- Actually, Google is looking like it's gotten a lot more complicated, or wants a lot more verification, just to scrape from their YouTube channels?

 

[Jaxel]

I received an email a few months ago from Google Developers that they will be changing their APIs this month and locking them down.
I never looked into it further because I have a feeling that Google is just going to kill off everything in the first place.

Google has not been an "open" company for many years now, and are doing everything they can from people using their services outside of their walled garden. It's only natural that this would lead to the end of their API; which by it's very nature is about extracting information for external services.

@Jaxel My site is currently not reporting any YouTube channels as being Live, although I know there are some. Is it likely that the end of the API has kicked in? If so will there be a new work around or is that it game over?

EDIT: actually its in and out, one of my admins reported the issue earlier, i logged on and no Live streams, after 5 minutes it was showing 2 Live another few minutes showing 7Live ... another few minutes 0 Live - Very strange!

Thanks

That's disappointing! Will you keep us abreast if you'll be able to update XenRIO to work with YouTube (if Google doesn't screw that over - as you mentioned). Twitch is still great, and important for us to have as a gaming community.

What's the chances of being able to pull in content from more current sources like TikTok, Instagram, etc? I'd be willing to help fund that for XenRIO if it were a possibility.

Thanks @Jaxel

Hope this finds you well @Jaxel -- was curious if you'll be updating XenRio, and your Discord add-ons to XF's 2.3 platform?

Thanks!

Do they not work with XF2.3?

 

[Chernabog]

Do they not work with XF2.3?

Oh, wow, I honestly do not know I was just under the impression that nothing does unless it is updated..... guess that tells ya what I get for assuming stuff.

Have to see if anyone comments about 2.3 compat., or wait till I get a copy and begin testing.

Sorry!

If we're still on 2.2, should we update to this version? Would it work on 2.2 as well? or do we wait til after we update to 2.3?

No. You won't even be able to install the 2.3 version on 2.2; it has a version check on it.

XF2.3 completely changes JavaScript in XenForo. It's basically a completely conversion from jQuery to vanilla ES6 JavaScript. So pretty much all JavaScipt in all my addons will break... thankfully I've tried to program all my addons to fallback silently on JS failures, but it definitely ruins some functionality. Most of my addons will work on a basic fundamental level, but not any of the jQuery stuff.

XenPorta is the biggest hiccup because much of it uses third-party libraries that require jQuery. So I will need to rewrite much of it (masonry, infinite scrolling, feature slider, etc) in order for those features to work again. It's going to be a lot of work.

 

[DarkGizmo]

Gotcha, good to know.

Jaxel updated XF2 [8WR] XenRio 2 (Streams) PRO with a new update entry:

2.3.0.2 - CHANGELOG

• Added support for Kick! Kick still hasn't opened their API, so I am using a third-party endpoint to get around their domain white-listing. When Kick opens their API, we will switch over to the official endpoints.
• Updated Trovo support with their URL changes.
• Updated VKPlay support with their URL changes.
• Embeds will now "hide" the chat embeds for services which support video embedding, but not chats.
• BUG FIX: stream titles will now be applied properly on offline...

@Jaxel I have someone who's live on Kick right now, but isn't showing in XenRIo......it seems like kick streams aren't being scraped properly or displayed properly? When I went to manually scrape his channel, I got this error:


I guess I need API access? how many requests per second should I tell them in my application?
