There is known problem with hitbox though... Sometime their login system fail if you login on the website and in the app simultaneously.

Update:
- Twitch.tv: emoticons source and parsing changed. Channel/user specific emoticons are shown for these channels/users only. Side effect is lower CPU usage;

I can't get connected to twitch.tv in any way other than read-only. I add my oauth token and connect to twitch, never get a channel. Add my channel, and it gives me read-only access. Every video out there is made with an older version that still used username/password. Help please.

It seems that twitch chat is not reliably scrolling, is that working as intended or am i missing a setting somewhere?

Excellent piece of software - keep up the good work. Was looking for sth like this for month.

Ever though of putting it on github ? I think community would like to contribute code and improve it further.

I'm using it for hitbox, twitch and YT gaming and have some trouble with YT only:
- dashboard publishing game title and topic is not working
- viewers leaving the YT chat won't be deleted from the Users window

On hitbox.tv, even though I log out from the browser or close my web browser, and then restarting Hitbox on Ubiqutious 2 Chat . It still doesn't work.

Normally, it stops scrolling if chat window is focused. You can force autoscroll via scrollbar context menu (right-click it)

Sorry, I can't publish the source code because I'm using it in another project now.
Youtube didn't implement these features in their API so far. Though there is one undocumented way to do that...

I can try to debug it via Teamviewer, just ping me on skype - codexpert

Change of title and/or description is supported by the API:
PUT https://www.googleapis.com/youtube/v3/videos?part=snippet&key={YOUR_API_KEY}
{
"id": "***********",
"snippet": {
"title": "test title",
"categoryId": "20",
"description": "test description"
}
}

But changing the game title throws a 200 OK but it seems not to be implemented by the API :-(
PUT https://www.googleapis.com/youtube/v3/videos?part=topicDetails&key={YOUR_API_KEY}
{
"id": "***********",
"topicDetails": {
"topicIds": [
"/m/06zmzsz"
]
}
}

I have some pretty embarrassing stuff +18 on my desktop /// . Is there another way? But I think I found out the problem why it doesn't connect? When you go to restream.io site and click 'show chat' it has that "Connect to Chat". Can it because of that problem?

:D
Well theoretically yes it may be cause. By some reason Hitbox doesn't like multiple connections.

Oooh I think I found the problem. On hitbox it's 'cap-sensitive', the username on hitbox doesn't like to use capital letters and you have type your username in all small caps. Maybe the fix for Ubiquitous 2 Chat is that you have to enter your username in all small caps, even though it's on Hitbox.tv side. I can finally type on Ubiqutious 2 Chat now to Hitbox.TV.

This chat program is amazing, it's exactly I was looking for. But I noticed few issues that makes using this app difficult at one monitor (I use always on top function with transparency).

1. After I start program there is big text "Chat is ON! Be first to say Hi!" - so when I run the game I constantly see this welcome message, covering part of my screen, until someone say something on the chat.

2. I use function to remove chat message after 60 seconds from chat window (Personalization > Animations > Slide out message to the Left after 60 seconds). So my screen stays clear when no one is chatting. But I also enabled Services > Save chat to image - to use in OBS. The problem is - Ubiquitous update image only when someone says something at the chat. So last chat message stays in png file forever when no one is chatting anymore - but it should be also removed, because I use 60 seconds to remove chat line.

3. Last issue is related to issue "2". After start (or restart) of the Ubiquitous, saved png chat image should be also updated, because it shows historic value from last session.

It could take some time to implement but right now you can use built-in Web UI + Browser plugin in OBS. There more effects can be added (via URL params) and it's appearance can be easily customized if you familiar with CSS.
There only one thing you need to remember. To make Browser plugin work properly you have to start the chat before the OBS.

Thank you codex. It's better solution. I use Browser plugin already so it was easy to add, and easy to customize. So now in general I have I was looking for, except the function to hide big text "Chat is ON! Be first to say Hi!" at the start of the program. I hope it will be added in future release. Have a nice day!
 
Whatever you did recently is genius because I can now type to Youtube/Twitch/Hitbox with very little delay.

One flaw however, now youtube chat doesn't show up in the program, only on Youtube itself.

Hello Codex (or Xedoc if you prefer).

Contacted you via the youtube video a few days back regarding the CSS issue I was having.
I sort of gave up on that (believe me, I tried a whole bunch of stuff. It just kept resetting to default) and found a semi work around.
I'm using the "save to image" function in Restream.IO/Chat for the OBS overlay and the Umbiquitous 2 chat itself for seeing what people are saying in the different chats and replying to them.
Te reason I couldn't use Umbiquitous 2 for the save to image as well is that I can't resize it to a size that fits the stream, while also being able to fill it on my second monitor (since the output image will always be the size of the chat window on my screen)

Anyway, I'll get to the point here.
Could you add the option for an outline to the texts in the image that is exported?
As it stands now, the very white text tends to blur into the background of anything that's overly exposed / bloomy (or white) on the game screen.

Even better, adding more granular or editable text control into the programs, such as a "modular" theme where the user selects all the tidbits himself through the program itself. That being text size, bold / itallic / underline, outline, possition of the name and or timestamp etc.

That's just a dream for me right now, but most importantly some sort of outline the the export would be great :)

As always love you program it is amazing. I've seen a lot of streamers starting to use Discord Chat/Voice tool while streaming. I just started using it myself and really dig it. It would be awesome to get Discord Chat support added to your tool. That would make it the ultimate thing for me. With Discord you create a chat/voice server and you can setup chat and voice for people to join. It would be kool if your app could pull in the chat from what ever server/room you point it too. Here is some info on their API. Let me know if you have any questions. Thanks for all that you do ;c)
