SourceTV - "Camera settings can't be changed during a live broadcast."

[Darkvapour]

Currently if you connect to a SourceTV server on GMod and try to use the spec_mode, spec_next and spec_prev console commands in the client (they are hidden) you will get the message "Camera settings can't be changed during a live broadcast." and nothing will happen which prevents you from changing view modes, even if tv_transmitall is set to 1, tv_delay is set to 30 and tv_allow_camera_man is set to 1.

Steps to reproduce the bug in order from top to bottom: (On a Dedicated Server) tv_enable 1 - Reload the map after entering this command. tv_transmitall 1 - This command and the one below should allow clients to use spec_mode, spec_next, etc. tv_allow_camera_man 1 tv_delay 30 - Delay broadcast to 30 seconds so it's not a live broadcast. bot - So you can spectate something.

(Now On Client)

Connect to the SourceTV server spec_autodirector 0 - Allows you to move your camera around in 3rd Person if it's already spectating a player. spec_mode - This should be working and should change the view mode, but it does not work. spec_next - Not working. spec_prev - Not working.

The commands are supposed to allow you to change who you are spectating and how you are spectating (freecam, chase cam, first person etc.) but it seems only the SourceTV auto-director mode is working.

This happens on both the current stable version of GMod and Development Version of GMod.

Those commands (and a few others) were removed from GMod completely. For what purpose I don't know.

It'd be great to have SourceTV back imo
