    Hi! I think Twitch is broken. Maybe because they have started using HTML5? Or is it working for you, maybe the error is on my system?
    Twitch has enforced some new rules to use their api, a client-id is needed now (see https://blog.twitch.tv/client-id-required-for-kraken-api-calls-afbb8e95f843#.qgbssvf7j)

    So someone has to get a client id for onlinevideos to use.

    Didn't investigate the requirements/restrictions that comes with the request for a client-id though

    Thanks for the info! I opened C:\ProgramData\Team MediaPortal\MediaPortal\OnlineVideoSites.xml to try to add a client id (to get one was easy enough), but the only thing I found there was
    Code:
        <Site name="Twitch" util="TwitchTV" agecheck="false" enabled="true" lang="en" lastUpdated="2015-04-03T18:54:40.7060459+02:00">
          <Description>Twitch is the leading video platform and community for gamers. We want to connect gamers around the world by allowing them to broadcast, watch, and chat from everywhere they play.</Description>
        </Site>
    Not even a URL. I even checked in C:\ProgramData\Team MediaPortal\MediaPortal\database\OnlineVideoDatabase.db3 and in OnlineVideo configuration, but no settings there. Maybe the settings are at http://onlinevideos.nocrosshair.de/ ? After looking at the guides at https://code.google.com/archive/p/mp-onlinevideos2/wikis I think my skills are not up to the task :( So I think I need to let the pros handle this :cool:

    I don't use twitch myself, so I'm a bit reluctant to go through the user-registration/application-registration myself, but I probably can parse the website itself.
    Any particular areas of the site you're interested in? There's the main page with the 3 "Top ... channels" lists, but there's also the browse/games/community/videos/livestreams section which is pretty huge...

    I only see streams from Twitch but I guess people see other streams from Twitch Don't know if it helps you, but I tried the registration and you see the Client-ID hjmel8nfh3miwa8kwknofidpswbj45i etc in the attached picture

    Hi

    In OV the source SRF is supported but is outdated.
    Would it be possible to update it?

    And further would it be possible to add DMAX?
