Since you have added 7tv to kick, it would make the experience even better if kick has an own chatterino version.

Out of the scope for a fork. Would be better to suggest this in the Chatterino discord

I would love to use Chatterino for kick

#

native chat feels so clunky

#

kick, youtube, twitch

#

it's just not the same as having a dedicated program

#

Kick support in Chatterino7 makes more sense IMO because 7TV played such a big part in actually making kick usable for streamers that aren't in normandy

chrome blaze
#

im in the works of a universal chat client, for kick twitch and maybe youtube. it will have the ability to play streams directly from the client.

#

(I beg of thee)

chrome blaze
#

i mean adding the player is like 1 line of code cause i am using webview to render the client

royal kernel
#

would it be showing the native player similar to how it looks in a web browser?

chrome blaze
#

yep

royal kernel
#

is that how the chat will work too?

chrome blaze
#

nope

royal kernel
#

interesting

chrome blaze
#

i could make my own player if i really wanted control over everything

royal kernel
#

making your own player seems a lot more difficult

#

none of the existing solutions have done it well enough for me

#

so I assume it's difficult from either a technical or legal standpoint

chrome blaze
#

eh somewhat difficult, im sure some headless player libraries can help

#

Just get a working chat and the world will rejoyce

#

twitch is constantly doing weird stuff with overlays and some people actually use them

#

keeping up with those changes would be a nightmare

#

so you obviously wouldn't, since most people don't want them

#

but there are many things that make a player usable

#

video speed control is vital IMO

#

the ability to fast forward the stream to reduce latency, or rewind it for an instant replay

chrome blaze

#

I can do that natively using an HTML5 video speed controller extension

#

also a way to SEE the current latency is important

#

One thing I would personally like to see change with the current web players: they wait for a few seconds of buffer before resuming playback

#

which means I'm not getting the lowest possible latency if I fast forward too far

#

you could probably change that with a userscript or something though
