addon/plugin to help watch streams on afreeca.tv?

Hi,
tl;dr. Is there some addon/plugin that can help me watch streams on afreeca?

1st of all, I'm sorry if this isn't the best place to post this.

So, as you many of you may know, The vant starleague's remaining semifinal & final will be casted by Tastosis, probably streaming on afreeca and I'd like to watch it.
However, most of the times steams on afreeca won't load for me. It keeps loading, or just black or blank.

Some time ago, somewhere in this forum there was a topic and one of the comments posted a link about something regarding afreeca.tv. It was a downloadable thing, probably an addon/plugin which, I suppose, would somehow help watch the streams.

And I'm basically looking for that, or something that would allow me to watch the streams.

so be clear, do you have troubles with afreeca.tv? Can you load a stream like this one http://afreeca.tv/36848292

or do you mean afreeca.com? like this stream http://play.afreeca.com/imcarry

if you're able to load the afreeca.tv one then you should be fine.

pretty sure that method can be shortened to download the nightly build and replace your existing livestreamer folder.

I am wondering if anyone has found/heard of a way to watch the afreeca streams/players in any way, shape or form through the playstation 4. Reason being is that I do not own a computer.

The only information i have found is that the PS4 runs on html5, and anything online requiring adobe will not run on ps4.

Anyone find a work around? (fingers crossed)

A bit off-topic as this is for afreeca.com, the Korean site, not afreeca.tv--

For those who user Livestreamer to watch Afreeca BW streamers, it looks like they changed the domain from afreeca.com to afreecatv.com today, so you'll likely be seeing this error:

[cli][info] Found matching plugin afreeca for URL afreeca.com/byhero
error: No streams found on this URL: afreeca.com/byhero


To resolve this, it looks like the easiest way is to locate your "afreeca.py" Python file -- in Windows, it's located in the \livestreamer\plugins folder

Just revise the code in a text editor (e.g. Notepad) so all the afreeca.com code points to afreecatv.com


line 7: CHANNEL_INFO_URL = "http://live.afreecatv.com:8057/api/get_broad_state_list.php"
line 13: HLS_KEY_URL = "http://api.m.afreecatv.com/broad/a/watch"
line 19: _url_re = re.compile("http(s)?://(\w+\.)?afreecatv.com/(?P<username>w+)")
line 75: "cors_origin_url": "m.afreecatv.com",


Save the file and that should do the trick -- no more errors!

Is this the reason why the side bar is broken? It is not updating the list of BW streams.

Thanks, that's what I really needed. Wonder why they changed URL, previous one was shorter and cooler, they got tons of money and can't buy a domain?!

Have they changed the domain again or something? Livestreamer doesn't work, says "Connection to chromecast.afreeca.gscdn.com timed out".

juvenal:

if you did this:

"1. Open the hosts file ( C:/Windows/System32/drivers/etc ) with notepad, add the following line and save the changes:

121.156.109.165 chromecast.afreeca.gscdn.com"

Then undo it.
