Verbose log
Description
This is the verbose command from the log above:
youtube-dl -v -f audio_only https://www.twitch.tv/gameboomersAfter a 15 second countdown "commercial break in progress" screen branded with the Twitch logo appeared, this command recorded the live audio stream and a black screen (1920x1080) displaying nothing.
But when I use this command:
mpv --ytdl-format=audio_only https://www.twitch.tv/gameboomersWhat happens visually is that the same "commercial break in progress" screen for 15 seconds, and then the audio plays for a brief second and then stops, when attempting to play it live through mpv. There aren't any notable errors in the mpv command, even with a verbose enabled.
This hasn't been a problem in the past, and this "commercial break in progress" screen is a new thing, so it lends a bit of evidence that there's a new way of doing things on Twitch's end.
Apologies if I'm barking up the wrong tree and should be reporting this to mpv's issues instead, but if the problem is with the website not working as it used to with youtube-dl, that's probably something the mpv team wouldn't or couldn't fix.
