Stream Integration
This is a small "guide" on some of the "Stream" tabs functions, as to how you can add your stream, view multiple streams and sort streams by games. First of all I want to let you all know this addon allows more services than just twitch.tv, below you are able to find a list of supported stream services we are able to support:
Beam.Pro
CyberGame.tv
Dailymotion
GoodGame
Hitbox.tv
Livestream
Twitch.tv
Ustream.tv
YouTube
- Live Streams
The live streams tab will show you all the people that is currently streaming, approved channels and games as well as unapproved channels and games. So this is the tab you want to check out if you are curios as to who is currently streaming.
- Multiview
If we click on the multiview tab and take a closer look you will fast understand what this function is for. But for the people that is a little bit slower let me give you an example, let's say there is a tournament going and there is a streamer from both teams, you want to view both perspectives at the same time, but you dont really want to sit and click between your browser tabs all the time, this is where this feature becomes handy.
If you would like more streams you can either choose another layout or press the "Add Multiview block" button at the top right corner, so this makes you able to follow multiple streams and chats at the same time.
- Channels
The channels tab serves no real big purpose other than giving you a view of which channels has been added to the website so you are able to see if you are on the list your self.
- Games
Games allows you to sort streams by what they are currently playing, this also allows the moderators to filter which streams we want shown on the front page, so lets say we have featured a channel to show up on the front page, this channel suddently doesnt play world of warcraft anylonger but league of legends, we do not want that to show up on the front page and we are able to sort it this way.
- Submit Channel
Submit channel says it self, when you press this button you are able to submit a channel you find interresting for the website, after submitting a channel you will have to wait for a moderator to approve the channel so we do not end up with a ton of irrelevant channels.
- Last Stream Scrape
We have a timer going 24/7 that scrapes the list for streams every 10 minutes, so lets say you have just fired up your stream and you are wondering as of why you arent showing up on the front page immediatly, well thats why, it can take up to 10 minutes before your stream shows up.
If you have any further questions regarding how the stream integration works feel free to leave questions in the comment section below.
Best regards,
