Release notes

Videorc 0.9.48 Beta 1

Connecting a Twitch account failed for everyone because Videorc was built with a placeholder credential instead of the real one — that is fixed, and a new release check makes it impossible to ship that mistake again.

Connecting Twitch works again

  • Connecting Twitch works again — every previous build was compiled with a placeholder credential, so Twitch always answered "invalid client".
  • Releases now refuse to build when a credential is still template text, so a provider can never ship looking configured but broken.
  • Groundwork for native YouTube connection: the sign-in exchange with Google was missing a required field and could never complete.

Connecting a Twitch account has never actually worked in a released build. Videorc was compiled with placeholder text where the real Twitch credential should have been, so Twitch rejected every sign-in attempt. The credential is now correct, and the release process refuses to build if any provider credential is still template text — the check that would have caught this on day one.

While tracking that down we found the same class of problem waiting in the YouTube sign-in: the token exchange with Google was missing a field it requires, so it could never have completed. That is fixed too. Native YouTube connection stays switched off until Google finishes verifying the app; use Manual RTMP for YouTube in the meantime.
