Connection Configuration

Basic Twitch Sound Player was written to store configuration files inside of its own directory.

To use it, download the required files from release section (note these may be slightly outdated) or entire repository and copy over content of release directory.

  1. Launch BasicTwitchSoundPlayer.exe and click File -> Connection settings.
  2. In Username field type in a username you use for logging in on Twitch (can be either your own username or separate bot account, but since the program generally doesn't send messages, you might as well use your own account).
  3. In Channel to join type in the name of a channel you want to join (usually your own).
  4. Click Obtain New Login Data to request Oauthy token from Twitch (make sure you are using the account you are using correct account - as in if you want to use seperate account for the program, make sure you are logging in from that separate account). Obtaining outhy is a bit junky as it uses local HTTP server to receive response with some javascript to convert javascript anchor to a format that is visible by the program itself.

  5. If everything goes correctly, after clicking save the program should connect to specified channel and start monitoring the chat.

Connection configuration and colors are stored in %APPDATA%\BasicTwitchSoundPlayer\Config.xml in root directory of the program.
