Hi nOLanSea. Sorry I didn't get back to you sooner. I have not seen this error before, so it may be difficult to fix.

May I ask:

Thank you

Hi ! This problem is back again. I noticed about 1 week ago and still on.

Browser Cent Browser / Chrome Very often, every day. I don't close this tab, but F5 page refresh sometimes help, sometimes not. bwstr

Hi nOLanSea, I've looked into the issue. The URL (http://live.afreecatv.com/afreeca/broad_list_api.php) used by this project to retrieve the list of streams is returning outdated information some or most of the time.

I will add a workaround to ignore the oudated information, but it is not ideal. The ideal fix would be to use the official Afreeca API, but unfortunately, I've not been able to register for it due to not knowing Korean.

Nice, thanks! Btw, registration in Afreeca available in english language https://member.afreecatv.com/app/join.php Or login here via Google/Apple/Facebook/Twitter If you can't proceed, I can register an ID for you.

Thanks for the offer! I do have a normal Afreeca account. It was the developer registration (at https://developers.afreecatv.com/?szWork=myinfo) which I had trouble with in the past. If there are problems in the future, I will give that another go.

For now, I will close this issue. The fix is in place and the page should not display older data anymore. If the issue occurs again, we will be able to tell by a stagnant "Last updated" time, and we can reopen the issue.
