What's new

This release bundles everything prepared for 1.6.5 together with the latest community fixes.

1. Ads & proxy improvements

• Ad break detection now works even when Twitch does not show the black countdown bar.
• Support for up to 5 configurable proxy servers, with automatic fallback to the next server when one of them fails.
• Twitch's query string (access token / signature) is now preserved when rewriting the HLS URL, so proxied requests stay authenticated.
• Config UI: proxy server fields are hidden when the proxy is disabled, moved to the bottom and made scrollable.

1. Playback fixes

• Sub-only VODs and subscriber-restricted live streams now play on lg.tv.twitch.tv ("Pulsar" hls.js player). The fix patches XMLHttpRequest on the main thread, alongside the existing Amazon IVS worker patch. Thanks @Lurdo-4!
• The yellow remote button now toggles Twitch's own chat (collapse/expand) instead of merely hiding it.

1. webOS reliability

• Fix: the screensaver (fireworks) no longer interrupts playback on webOS 4.x. Timestamp-only screensaver requests are recognized and vetoed only while a video is playing in the foreground. Thanks @jwrpalmer99!
• Added automated regression tests for the screensaver responder (npm test).
