v2.0.0

24-Jan-2022
IRC Chat, Tipping, Streaming and Viewing Stability Improvements, User Onboard Flows, Dark Mode, Mute viewer

Hints, Tips, Known Issues

  • Existing users will need to run the dlive_installer.exe to upgrade. Version 2.0.0 of the dlive.exe is signed by “Rainberry Inc” instead of “Bittorrent Inc” therefore the auto update will not run. Subsequent updates of Dlive protocol will auto update.
  • Chat is no longer running a streamer hosted local server, rather it uses a remote IRC server. Decentralized chat is planned for an upcoming release.
  • Existing streamers may need to update their stream description to adhere to a smaller field size because the metadata is saved as an IRC topic.
  • Existing streamers can remove the port forward on 31600 for their router. This was formerly used by the local chat server.
