No description provided.

[justinharkey]

@peacedink Yes this works perfectly for me. Newer versions of Python require parentheses around print.

[peacedink]

@justinharkey but do you get more than 20 viewers by using this? Cuz im limited to that amount everytime.

[mufin695]

I keep getting

An error has occurred while trying to read the list of proxies: no such file or directory

heres what my folder looks like

# viewer

• twitch-viewer.py
• proxylist.txt

any ideas?

[peacedink]

@mufin695 move your proxies to C:/proxylist.txt and change path in script to C:/proxylist.txt instead of proxylist.txt

[mufin695]

@peacedink Got it to work! is it just me or do the views cap out at 20?

[peacedink]

@mufin695 nope, same for me

[mufin695]

@peacedink yeah im guessing twitch only allows 20 non-registered viewers

@mufin695 How did you resolve the "An error has occurred while trying to read the list of proxies: No such file or directory" issue I have the same issue and can't seem to solve it?

Resolved the issue but now I get this issue:
"Obtaining the channel...
Obtained the channel
Preparing the processes...
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "c:\python27\lib\runpy.py", line 174, in _run_module_as_main

An error has occurred while trying to get the stream data. Is the channel online? Is the channel name correct?"

I have even added my own client id which is d11517mart29mlb0xzq3svd2tvcfbqd11517mart29mlb0xzq3svd2tvcfbq if anyone wants to test it?

[mufin695]

@peacedink Ever figure the 20 viewer thing out?

[SrGeekPT]

Getting error in this try

try: url = json.loads(response)['streams']['audio']['url'] except (ValueError, KeyError): print("LN66: An error has occurred while trying to get the stream data. Is the channel online? Is the channel name correct?") sys.exit(1)

[Volantino]

This still work in the 2018?
Anyone use it?

[Thehackmen]

Where do I download the bot files

[virtuoz75]

I think this program doesn't work anymore

[virtuoz75]

NVM i've tried it the script is working with @justinharkey changes Did this command to launch it :

On powershell :

cd YOURSCRIPTFOLDER
.\twitch-viewer.py YOURCHANNAME

Hope this can help

[virtuoz75]

You just have to add parse in the code like justin do

For the proxy, I've taken a list from internet searches, you need to find your own

[virtuoz75]

You dont need to modify this line :

channel_url = "twitch.tv/yogscast"

Just change it to:

channel_url = "twitch.tv/"

And try again

[virtuoz75]

The problem is not the proxy atm, the channel you specified is streaming? it seems that its disconnected

[virtuoz75]

Hmm, i don't where the problem is so ..

[virtuoz75]

Come to my discord and i will pm you : https://discord.gg/RrTxbK

@virtuoz75 would you mind running me through what you did to make this work? I'm having similar issues from the error : "An error has occurred while trying to get the stream data. Is the channel online? Is the channel name correct?"

[Steelsector]

I would like to know the answer as well, please

[MrHappy8D]

I have actually solved this and got the script to work (with marginal success...) I can get to a maximum of 10 viewers with the number of proxies i'm using (they're ones i've found online in a couple shady forums). I'll try post a fork when I can if anyone's interested...

[s4magier]

I got the script running too but its not counting the viewers

[Steelsector]

Yep, interested @MrHappy8D, I don't know what I'm doing wrong at this point

[s4magier]

@MrHappy8D i am interested too. Which setting for the sleep timeouts are you using?

[MrHappy8D]

Add me on discord and i'll send through the file. MrHappy8D#5798. I don't go on github much and cbf setting something up. Maybe we can figure it out together.

I saw you managed to remove dead proxies that don't connect which is awesome @s4magier. Like I said I managed to get 10 viewers with some shitty proxy list I found so I'm sure it's possible to get more but the list would need to be huge... I also had to have the script running for quite some time.

[MrHappy8D]

I also forked the branch and modified the script. You'll need to update the code and replace CHANNELNAME on line 28. Then just run the script as python twitch-viewer.py in CMD as Administrator. You'll also need a long list of proxies (LONG LIST) and a lot of them won't connect unless they're good / Residential proxies. It would be good if we could auto remove proxies that don't connect. There are a couple forums I know who share a list of proxies everyday that seem better quality than free ones.

[s4magier]

So i reviewed your code and it is similar to mine. Strange that it doesnt count the viewers for me. I am using Ubuntu tho but this should not be the problem.

What is your Discord ID?

[MrHappy8D]

Should be MrHappy8D#5798 @s4magier. I had to have a massive proxy list and the list I have there is probably outdated already on my branch. May be able to source some fresher ones.

[jormanen]

I keep getting "An error has occurred while trying to read the list of proxies: No such file or directory" even when i have the proxylist.txt on the folder... Any tips how i could make it work?

[vanarok]

An error has occurred while trying to get the stream data. Is the channel online? Is the channel name correct? What?

[selfpromochat]
