Old thread can be found here.





So what's new for 2014?



so what happened last week is that AlexoundOS and I basically migrated the snipealot streams from his local machine to a cloud host in Singapore (basically closest location to South Korea that will allow for us to use a lot of bandwidth without having to spend that much). Streams have been quite stable so far on it, as the viewers shouldn't have seen any hiccups during the migrations. We also have a backup server in Amsterdam should any terrible thing go wrong to the Singapore host (Singapore had a DDOS attack last week, which was hilarious). The Amsterdam server hasn't been fully configured yet (it's just a matter of duplicating the Singapore server configuration and having good routing to afreeca) but that will be worked on so we have a backup solution.



So, what does that mean? At the moment, we still will have LQ streams as before but the connections to afreeca should be better than was previously before. We will have to wait until Snipealot comes back to South Korea to save BW. That also means that I am currently paying for the servers, which doesn't cost that much for me so I wouldn't worry too much about the costs of keeping the streams up.





As for the actual streams: Some people have been asking why there is a green screen on the stream. To fix that, just switch the quality option to High instead of source to fix that.

prech Profile Joined March 2014 United States 2947 Posts #6 I'm curious if everyone can run the !online command? Or is it only moderators?



And is the !online script search specifically for Afreeca usernames, or if there is another boolean? I'm interested in how it determines which user is streaming at the moment



Thanks! Liquipedia

Currently it's only for moderators, as only moderators can put players, so running !online by non-moderator is pretty useless. But there is !isbjon command that is available for everybody.

Neat -- may I ask how the !isbjon command work? should "bj" be replaced with a username, e.g. !isBisuonline? I tried it out in one of the stream chat windows and a peculiar username showed as offline, but it wasn't "bj" Neat -- may I ask how the !isbjon command work? should "bj" be replaced with a username, e.g. !isBisuonline?

!isbjon works by checking if the current BJ (basically how afreeca streamers are called by) is on. Reason why we have this is that sometimes Afreeca stops sending packets to our server to which we then start playing dummy videos while we wait for Afreeca to start sending packets again. making !isBisuonline is a bit of a hassle because then we have to make one for every streamer (there's a lot) !isbjon works by checking if the current BJ (basically how afreeca streamers are called by) is on.
