this has only started in the last ~5 days but every time i open a stream website whether it's homepage or an actual stream, my whole browser freezes for a good 10 seconds but then continues to work fine, but there's a similarly timed delay from stream/chat. tried full resetting chrome and removing all extensions but even with just 7tv enabled it's still doing it. if it was just the freeze i could probably get over it but the desync from chat makes it kinda annoying

#

edit: twitch homepage will freeze for about 10 seconds on landing, kick homepage goes completely unresponsive and kills the page

#

does it do this in incognito?

#

I recommend just removing 7tv clearing cache and then install 7tv nightly

summer ginkgo
#

incognito fixes it

#

tried clearing all time cache and nightly version with nothing else enabled and still does it 😦

tropic spade
#

Do you have hardware acceleration off?

#

Try turning that off and see if it fixes your issue and if it doesn't you can try creating a new Chrome profile and installing 7tv and see if it changes anything

summer ginkgo
#

still does it with hardware accel on or off and on a different chrome profile

tropic spade
#

Does it do this on any other browser?

#

can you actually hit f12 and see if you are getting any errors on chrome

# summer ginkgo incognito fixes it

incognito disables all extensions (unless you specifically set them to be enabled in incognito) so it could be a conflict with another extension too

tropic spade
#

I had them use it with another profile and disable all other extensions and except 7tv Hmm

summer ginkgo
#

not sure if any of this is useful im no coding man

#

this is what shows on youtube immediately after page stops responding

rose oriole
#

so 7tv extension bricks youtube as well?

summer ginkgo
#

yeah youtube, twitch and kick

rose oriole
#

can you click on one of these

summer ginkgo
#

only difference is that if i go to twitch/youtube homepage, it freezes for ~10 secs THEN i can click to a stream/video and its fine, but kick homepage dies completely

rose oriole
#

what is that url

rose oriole
summer ginkgo
#

sure

#

huh twitch seems to be fine now but still doing it for youtube/kick

#

all ive done since last night is turn pc off and on

rose oriole
#

LULE classic

summer ginkgo
#

im telling you its real SCHIZO

rose oriole
#

disable youtube in extension settings and see if it helps

#

we dont support youtube rn anyway

#

if it's still bricked then its a different extension or browser setting

summer ginkgo
#

disabled for youtube but still doing it

#

nothing else is enabled + browser is still fresh from clearing it last night

rose oriole
#

ye then its not our extension

#

this looks like you have some permissions issues

summer ginkgo
#

but it stops immediately with 7tv disabled

rose oriole
#

I mean as far as I know if you don't give access to the site then the extension is effectively disabled on that site

#

this looks interesting too

summer ginkgo
#

its over my pc is blowing up

#

its deprecating right now

rose oriole
#

are you on nightly or stable?

#

try to completely remove extension from chrome and see if it still breaks youtube

summer ginkgo
#

ill try remove it

#

yeah its fine with it removed

#

on god dont worry about it ill just use not chrome lol

rose oriole
#

check what is this and try to open the errors here and see the url

#

it makes no sense that with site permissions it would break

#

@fathom cairn I'm kind of out of ideas, thoughts?

summer ginkgo
#

i mean i found something but it doesnt really make sense

#

if i turn this off it fixes it

#

but then it was still freezing on a new profile with nothing but 7tv enabled

#

so idk

rose oriole
#

idk how a new profile would handle this

summer ginkgo
#

yeah maybe just because it's enabled in a different profile it still breaks it in incognito
