stripchat.py

[SnowManWithCarrot]

The plugin will not work if the streamer name contains "-"

Example:

"My-name-is"

or

"My-name"

Error codes:

"error: Unable to validate JSON: Unable to validate key 'cam': Unable to validate result: Type of [] should be 'dict' but is 'list'"

@SnowManWithCarrot Workaround that works for me: get latest stripchat.py and change line 7 _url_re = re.compile(r"https?://(\w+\.)?stripchat\.com/(?P<username>\w+)") to _url_re = re.compile(r"https?://(\w+\.)?stripchat\.com/(?P<username>[\w\d_-]+)")

@nxkbd Thanks that actually fixed the problem :)

[mikedouglax]

@nxkbd the same error happens when the streamer name contains "_"

[SnowManWithCarrot]

@mikedouglax

Apply the fix @nxkbd provided and it will also fix the "_" issue.

I've just tested both.

i've just tried, let me try again

[mikedouglax]

error: Unable to open URL: https://b-hls-20.strpst.com/hls/29559103/master_29560103.m3u8 (HTTPSConnectionPool(host='b-hls-20.strpst.com', port=443): Read timed out. (read timeout=20.0))

@mikedouglax

This is probably a different problem and also occurs with standard streamer names.

[SnowManWithCarrot]

@Damianonymous correct.

I can confirm that is happening with some of the streamers that mostly stream from outside and their connection is not that good so the calls from the API take longer than 20s leading to the "timeout 20.0" .

Possible solution is to remove the timeout,add longer timeout (120?,300?) or add sleep.time(xx).

[odnar-dev]

need to add default stream as a fallback . i think i fixed it with this

[SnowManWithCarrot]

I tested it for few days and can confirm that the fix @odnar-dev fixed the timeout issue.
