Twitch Embed only with domain?

[Sim3Xx]

Hello guys,

im trying to embed twitch on my local website. Big problem here is that i cant juse a hostname as “ip”. So in my case i cant use custom domain names like “pi” or others i have already seen here. (The reason is the configuration i have to use to be able to serve the website, is not able to use these hostnames)

Is there a way to use the plain ip instead? Or do you have to use a domain as parent for the parent string?

Also Do i have to use SSL? Or can i use it?

I have following message:

Im sure the reason for that is, because i dont have a domain name in the connection string.
This is how my iframe looks like:

Hi everyone, as the purpose of this topic was to announce embed changes, we’re going to close it for further comments. However, I’m going to include many of the tips that were discussed above that helped resolved many issues. Please review these items for troubleshooting before opening a new topic. Thank you! Top troubleshooting tips Make sure you have SSL enabled for your website, this is required for embeds to function (i.e. When going to your site, “https://” is in the URL) Do not include “…

You can’t use an IP Address

localhost is supported for local development.

Or do you have to use a domain as parent for the parent string?

You can (probably) use a custom domain of “pi” but it’ll need to be served over SSL (those certs can be self signed however)

Okay. So i have following problem… actually using a host where i serve my website and a guest-(where i have my Windows) So my Pc is ubuntu and is using QEMU to emulate Windows. But i cant access localhost/127.0.0.1. Any ideas on how i could do it?

[BarryCarlyon]

Not sure. This isn’t a QEMU support forum.

Thanks for telling me. But hoped you might know something about that…or about this use CASE Have a good one

[BarryCarlyon]

yeah I don’t use QEMU and I’m not familair with it

Nor would I normally emulate windows on Ubuntu
