Due to the recent events and anti-bot mechanics Twitch has implemented, everyone trying to use the v12
or any lower version, is recommended to stop immediately. Anyone upgrading to the v13
release MUST re-authenticate their account BEFORE continuing to use the application. To do this, simply delete the cookie file, then launch the application and login anew. Not doing so may end up in your account running into CAPTCHA and Twitch locking you out for ~24 (or more) hours, even if you delete the cookie file afterwards. This action is required when upgrading any previous version to v13
specifically, and is caused by the client ID change - any previous authentication version is tied to the old client ID and will trigger a CAPTCHA challenge that locks you out. You have been warned!
Changes in this version include:
- Fix site down detection logic
- Fix a rare crash related to a request timing out outside of the timeout-handling code section
- Removed the integrity debug code, that could suppress errors when using an old cookie file
These changes are minor, and this release is here because I've kinda messed up the v13
one. Unless you're having issues (like #64), you don't need to upgrade.
