Hitbox.tv: VODs can't be played #22

Closed Tharn closed 8 years ago

Tharn commented 8 years ago

Hey,

I can't seem to be able to play Hitbox VODs through Livestream Monitor. They're correctly listed with thumbnails and times and everything, but the 'Open Vod' button is greyed out and the 'Vod URL' is just a long string of hexadecimals.

Hmm I think hitbox might have messed up their API: http://developers.hitbox.tv/#list-videos

I'm pretty sure that the media_file returned the video id you see in your url but now it seems to refer to a GUID type entity which I'm guessing is how they reference their videos in whatever database they're using behind the scenes.

Looks like something might be going on with their vods: https://twitter.com/hitboxliveHelp/status/779006903896666114

Thanks for the heads up! I tried Hitbox for the first time today, otherwise I would've checked with Google first. Bad luck. ;)

All good now, meant to use media_id from now on.

Fix incoming.
