Embed twitch steam only when the streamer is online

Hi guys,

I’ve been trying to get an embed script to work that I found on github. I’m able to use the script section in the code to embed a stream but it doesn’t seem to hide the embed when the streamer is offline.

I noticed that there were some recent changes to twitch embeds and I just wanted to make sure that I’m on the right track to figuring out the issue as it doesn’t seem to be working for me.

Thanks,

It would seem that the event listeners might be broken.

This may get resolved with the upcoming embed player updates:

So an alternative to the player events would be to either use webhooks or the streams endpoint

To obtain Online/Offline status and flip flop based on that instead of pure JS/player calls instead
