I did a quick hotfix update to fix an issue with open_basedir (and safe_mode for older PHP installations) that would cause the stream to fail to fetch.

Also, as a general note: Do not input the full http://www.twitch.tv/<channelname> URL - it's only the <channelname> part that should be added. Anything else and it will fail to fetch the channel data.

I may look into automatically stripping this data for a future version :)

It's nice,but I know the question will be asked,so I'll ask it now..Why are they only linking to the channels? And not embedding..

Because embedding does not give easy access to following & subscribing to the channel, AFAIK :)

Embedding would be doing the channel owner(s) a disservice in that regard.

If you want to unlazy, you can do some of the fancier stuff with using an API key, etc.

Remote/embedded views are shown ads as well, so its not really a disservice.

But doing so will inconvenience the admins by forcing them to sign up for that program :)

For the time being (and especially for a mod coded from scratch in ~8 hours), direct linking is IMO a better alternative to embedding.

Nice Mod! Many people really wanted something like this. :)

1. Problem: I just can add 1 new Channel-ID with a Channel Owner. If i want to add more Channeli-IDs with the same Owner it replaces the previous Channel-ID. Am i the only one with this problem?

But great Mod anyway. :)

Cheers,

That is intended behaviour. However, you can add channels with no owners via the AdminCP - an owner is not required :)

Thanks for your answer. There is another thing:
Iam not exactly sure in what case this happend but its the secound time:

If i create a channel and want to edit it later on but > all fields are empty (pink).

Now if i want to delete this Channel (pink) the following error occured:

The reason i want to edit this channel is that the link was correct in the first place, but then it automatically added the following:
urbanzone > urbanzone%E2%80%8E

https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/external/2013/10/11.jpg

I re-installed the whole product and it works fine again but that is a strange behaviour. I guess not intended. ;)

Thanks for support,

Cheers,

Great mod. Works like a charm. Nice work.

Hmm, i got the same problem again with the first entry. Some Channel-Links adding stuff like %E2%80%8E again.
Any solution for this? :(
