Public bug reported: The Twitch API has changed to disallow loading streams over HTTP. This causes gnome-twitch to crash whenever one tries to open any stream. The issue was tracked on the gnome-twitch github page ( https://github.com/vinszent/gnome-twitch/issues/356 ), a fix was written and merged ( https://github.com/vinszent/gnome-twitch/pull/357 ), and gnome-twitch release 0.4.2 includes the fix. Therefore, to restore the functionality of the package, the repository needs to be updated to 0.4.2, since 0.4.1 has been rendered useless by the API change.
Release: Ubuntu 18.04.1 LTS gnome-twitch version: 0.4.1-2 Expected behaviour: stream opens and plays after a channel is selected. Actual behaviour: gnome-twitch says that no backend is installed. After clicking one one of the options in the resulting dialog box, gnome-twitch crashes with the message Error getting stream access token for channel 'lirik' because: Received unsuccessful response from url 'http://api.twitch.tv/api/channels/lirik/access_token' with code '400' and body '{"error":"Bad Request","status":400,"message":"Requests must be made over SSL"}' or similar. ** Affects: gnome-twitch (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: upgrade-software-version ** Package changed: openssh (Ubuntu) => gnome-twitch (Ubuntu) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1783453 Title: gnome-twitch crashes upon attempting to open any stream To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-twitch/+bug/1783453/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
