DiscordJS/Voice AudioPlayer goes on Idle while playing livestreams on ytdl after a few seconds

[framilano]

Hi everyone, trying to create a Discord Music Bot from the ground using ytdl, everything's fine, except for for livestreams I'm using this configuration for normal videos, and it works (this setting doesn't work with livestreams though)

resource = createAudioResource(ytdl(song_data['video_url'], {quality:'highestaudio', filter: 'audioonly'}))

And using for livestreams:

if (song_data['isLive']) resource = createAudioResource(ytdl(song_data['video_url'], {itag:95}))

The audio plays for a few seconds (maybe one minute sometimes) and then just stops, AudioPlayer goes in Idle, no error thrown, nothing. Any idea?

Here's my package.json

    "npm": "^8.0.0",
    "node": "^16.11.1"

Switch to play-dl for livestream support.

Sure it works, the audio quality is not that great though, and I hear some hiccups during livestreams. Any way to change the quality or itag?

@framilano

Hiccups occurs when you don't have a good internet. Just host your bot temporarily on free google Cloud shell and see the difference.

@killer069 Okay, actually on Heroku it works fine. Kinda weird that it doesn't work that well with a 1Gbit connection on a Raspberry Pi though.

But yeah, it does what you said so, closed.
