Can watch Source without lags now, at least on some random stream. Tried with and without it, without the addon the source quality dropped a few frames here and there but with addon enabled it was smooth.

Thanks!

It's stupid the way it is, but I imagine this is at least partly because transit bandwidth (transatlantic, for example) costs and arm and a leg whereas peering with ISPs is free (generally). So, obviously Twitch would prefer if all the major European ISPs peered with their EU datacenter. This way, they only need to send one stream to this DC and everyone in the area gets served by that DC for a very very low cost per mbps. When all of us are using Twitch US servers, they are sending orders of magnitude more data across the pond and will get charged for it by their upstream provider. I assume this is why they ask you to "contact your ISP".

First of all, thanks a lot R1CH this is amazing and has allowed me to watch 3 streams on "source" during eu primetime although I couldn't even watch 1 stream in high lagfree without it.

Is there a way to get an icon on the topright extension bar to manually enable/disable it for when i need it? Because it fucks with my other proxies (proxmate, hola unblocker) which I use to watch things like youtube, netflix etc which are blocked in good ol germany.

Try one of the following extensions:
Extensions Manager
One-Click Extensions Manager

They are made for handle problems like this.

You can't. This is only for your browser.

I had some issues in the beginning. Like the sound would work flawless, but every 20s or so, it would lag. After I closed Chrome and retried. Everything now works smoothly on Source. DAMN! Thank you R1CH. Blizzcon here we come.

You can configure it yourself. If automatic keeps resetting download one of the various proxy programs and set it up the same way as the text file .pac that is in the OP. You would need to update when/if the IPs change though.

I'll be damned, it is actually working. Im using .pac file in firefox. Super simple solution to incredibly annoying problem. Now I can watch any stream in source quality without stutter. Thanks R1CH !

Between this and proxy with some refreshes and quality changes to change server (easier with text near quality to ID them etc), first stutter/freeze free event day since i can remember. Proxy tool helped a little, but not consistently, this seems to work really well so far. Thanks!
