IRC chat login fails #479

Open ghost opened 4 years ago

ghost commented 4 years ago

I double checked the URL after changing to Estuary from the default skin on OSMC and it was the same. I got my OAuth token and can see my followed channels so it seems to be working. But when I enabled the IRC chat and installed the noted addon the issue started.

The chat seems to connect but immediately responds with a Login failed message. OAuth token was double checked and reentered with no success.

This is also on a 100% clean install. The SD card was imaged clean last night with no other changes to it.

Did I happen to miss a step somewhere?

I see a chat:edit and chat:view scope on the linked page. I wonder how those work if the login is removed? Perhaps it is handled by the normal login and just carries through somehow?

@anxdpanic I did some searching and found this that may help https://dev.twitch.tv/docs/authentication/#scopes see the bottom of the page for Chat and PubSub. I am not too familiar with addon development but is this something that may help here or does it belong as an issue for the dead IRC addon?

anxdpanic commented 4 years ago

I'm aware, supporting that would required yet another oauth token for the helix api which in general isn't a great fit for our use case. iirc pubsub would require the user to open and forward ports from inet -> add-on (absolutely not ideal).

Guessing that means chat on this add on is dead and probably not coming back? What do you suggest as an alternative aside from running a second PC for chat only when watching a stream, which is also not ideal.

I don't want to open an extra issue for this but would it be possible to implement the chat like this? The repository is archived by the owner but the last I used it (2-3 months ago), the chat worked, it didn't need any extra token just the twitch login and it wasn't an overlay.

What needs to be done to fix the chat? Should the addon instead be updated for the new api?
