The latest Twitch Indicator requires GTK 3.12:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/twitch-indicator", line 154, in settings_dialog
    self.builder.add_from_file("/usr/lib/twitch-indicator/twitch-indicator.glade")
gi._glib.GError: /usr/lib/twitch-indicator/twitch-indicator.glade: required gtk+ version 3.12, current version is 3.10

This means it no longer works on Ubuntu 14.04 (the initial version worked)... can this be tweaked to work with at least GTK 3.10?

The beta of elementary OS 0.4 no longer supports ayatana indicators. It would be nice if Twitch Indicator supported the new Wingpanel API so that it works with elementary OS 0.4.

Here's an example of a Wingpanel indicator, wingpanel-indicator-session

On rare occasions indicator pushes all current live channel notifications even they were live before.

Sometimes when you refresh streams you get notification of a stream which haven't just went live, but was already live before. You also may get notifications repeadetly of the same live streams.

It's me again, well, I had to reinstall archlinux and now when I try to run twitch-indicator, it shows me this, I searched for the problem but any solution worked for me, so I was wondering if it was some kind of dependence.

i love your project but i want to use it on Arch, any chance of an AUR or arch supported setup? (i would love to use in XFCE)

Twitch-indicator doesn't see the channels when they go live, it see them every 30 min (more or less).

Maybe because it doesn't use the current twitch api. Support for the original api was remove this summer. Support for the v3 and v5 is deprecated since August and will be remove next year. There's an all new api to use for Twitch.

My Twitch indicator is perpetually "Checking". It stopped listing live channels about a week ago. Is there an update or fix?

Ubuntu 16.04

The first time you run the indicator and add your Twitch username, it doesn't work, and the following output is displayed in the terminal:

$ twitch-indicator

After restarting the indicator, it starts working.

For a while now it's just thrown this error during every update

As of now, twitch-indicator open a selected stream in the default browser for the system. It would be nice if we could specify our own command lines and, say, for example, pass the stream url to livestreamer/vlc and open the stream in VLC that way.

it never shows the channels live on archlinux-gnome, just shows "checking..." all the time
I cloned the git and made a sudo ./setup.sh.
