Open RoonMoonlight opened this issue 2 years ago • 4 comments

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. Starting from September 30 2022, Twitch will force to 720p as maximum resolution in Korea, which led to controversy. Other countries are not affected for this change.

Describe the solution you'd like We need the method to bypass this limit so we all can watch maximum resolution like other countries.

Describe alternatives you've considered Nothing.

Additional context None.

I hope this can be implemented with high priority, because 720p limit will take effect on Sep 30, 2022

If there's a known way to bypass this, then we could implement it. I suspect the only way around this would be with a VPN, which I don't think would require any changes to be implemented into Twire.

Tagging as "needs more information" until it's known how to bypass this.

I just noticed TTV LOL can bypass the 720p limit, will you consider adding it?

@Nickwasused opened #217 which would add it. I am not sure if they are still working on it.

Closing now that #403 is closed.
