v0.6.1
Patch update highlights
- Set the required livestreamer version to v1.11.1 !!! See #30
Twitch had changed their API lately, so livestreamer was unable to launch any streams. This means that you need to install the latest livestreamer version in order to watch twitch.tv streams. If you're running the old version, the GUI will prompt you to do so. - Rewrote the tray-icon logic: You can now choose where to access the application from - either the taskbar/dock, tray or both. The previous settings for this option have been reset.
- Implemented language flags, showing the channel's language and broadcaster language.
- Added more stats to the featured channels and streams being watched.
- Added a link to the game the broadcaster is playing (while hovering the preview image).
- The application window now stays hidden until it has finished loading.
- Updated to latest node-webkit version v0.11.2
- Updated several dependencies (ember and ember-data)
- Fixed preview images being cached and not updated when refreshing a route.
- Fixed streams-being-watched route not fetching new data from the API when refreshing.
- Fixed select dropdowns not updating correctly.
- Fixed being able to open multiple windows by clicking links while holding modifier keys.
- Fixed app crashes caused by uncaught exceptions which were thrown by
- clicking a livestreamer documentation link
- featured streams having no status text
Known issues
- OSX:
- Due to a build dependency issue, the old problem regarding the path of the livestreamer executable is back in (pre v0.6.0). This means that you need to manually set the path to livestreamer, if you haven't already. The default path is
/usr/local/bin/livestreamer
, but if this doesn't work, please checkwhich livestreamer
, to see where the livestreamer executable is located.

- Twitch.tv API issues:
- Sometimes the returned list of streams is empty. This affects all stream listings, the infinite scroll mechanic, the stream search function and also the streams-being-watched menu.
