Hello everyone,
This beta includes all the features and bug fixes of previous betas, and:
- Revamps the midroll blocking algorithm (now called the ad replacement algorithm)
- This new algorithm should reduce the number of purple (Commercial break in progress) screens for users of the public proxies, and reduce player freezes for all users when an ad is detected
- Improves the new ad log
- Should now be more reliable/accurate and the debug info shorter
- Fully supports the new Usher V2 API being rolled out by Twitch
- Fixes an issue on Chromium where some GraphQL requests were not proxied despite being configured to do so
- IMPORTANT: This fix unfortunately triggers the proxy authentication popup on Chromium browsers when using a proxy requiring credentials and proxying GQL requests. To 'mitigate' the issue, a new "Copy proxy credentials" button in the extension popup lets you quickly copy your credentials to paste them into the dialog (make sure to NOT paste and enter into a single field, you have to separate your username and your password into the respective fields)
- Some other small improvements here and there
- For example exporting ad log or extension settings to JSON now pretty-prints the file (thank you @pointydev for the suggestion)
Of course this is still a beta so things can be unstable. If you would like to participate in this beta, you are more than welcome! If so, please report any bug you encounter either via Discord or the linked GitHub discussion.
