Hello I’m new here and trying to find an answer to an issue I’m running in since a couple of days.
I’m using the popout for twitch polls as a browser source overlay for my stream.
I added some custom css style and it worked perfectly. Data updated everytime someone voted on my channel.
The issue now is that the overlay stopped updating data after the first 2 seconds or so. I’m displaying via vmix /obs and my research suggest that twitch doesnt allow CEF Browser logins to the internal web page.
Can someone confirm this and do you see you a way around this? I’d love to use the twitch poll popout but at the moment it looks like I have to look for other options do achieve something similar.
Issues with the first party site are beyond the scope of this forum, and plus since you’re using the popout in unintended ways and manipulating the CSS it’s likely that Twitch Support may not be able to offer much help either.
What I’d recommend is utilizing the Twitch API and the Get Polls endpoint, and/or the Channel Poll Begin, Channel Poll Progress, and Channel Poll End, EventSub topics and with that utilize a proper integration for polls such as vMix data sources with a Title input, or a browser source in OBS.
As a side note, vMix’s CEF version is quite old so many sites using modern CSS and functionality not available in that old version will not work right anyway or have a very high CPU hit compared to making a solution that is appropriate for vMix/OBS (thankfully OBS isn’t as bad when it comes to CEF version and browser source overhead, but it can still have issues).
