Description

Your way of checking if a livestream is finished is by checking if the "x watching now" element exists. Not only this could make a watcher stay on forever if you are not using proxies with a english language, on some livestreams it just stops working for no reason, even when its in english.

A safer way is to check if the endscreen element is visible, and close the livestream if it is.

A way to do this in javascript is

document.querySelector(".html5-endscreen").style.display

If the result is "" (a blank string) then the livestream/video is finished (It works for videos too), and if the result is "none" then the livestream/video is still playing.

I am not sure how you could do this in python, but I guess it should not be different from now, since all you have to do is modify this part of the code:

    while True:
        try:
            view_stat = driver.find_element(
                By.CSS_SELECTOR, '#count span').text
            if not view_stat:
                raise WebDriverException
        except WebDriverException:
            view_stat = driver.find_element(
                By.XPATH, '//*[@id="info"]/span[1]').text
        if 'watching' in view_stat:
            print(timestamp() + bcolors.OKBLUE + f"Worker {position} | " + bcolors.OKGREEN +
                  f"{proxy} | {output} | " + bcolors.OKCYAN + f"{view_stat} " + bcolors.ENDC)

            create_html({"#3b8eea": f"Worker {position} | ",
                         "#23d18b": f"{proxy.split('@')[-1]} | {output} | ", "#29b2d3": f"{view_stat} "})
        else:
            error += 1

and change the view_stat element and the if statement.
