Twitch auto embed broken

image

This was from an auto-embed of a Twitch video link I had posted in our Discourse forum. I’ve looked around other Discourse instances and seen the same thing, so I might not be alone with this.

The browser console error is as follows:

Twitch embed error message:
[NoParent] parent query string value was not specified
Docs: https://dev.twitch.tv/docs/embed/video-and-clips/

Is there a fix/workaround?

If there’s no current fix, it’d be great if I could specifically disable Twitch auto-embeds for now until there’s a fix; have tried blacklisting the site to no success, and I haven’t found any obvious-looking config for toggling certain embed types off.

Can you post one of the Twitch links here? Do you mean oneboxing, when you post a link to (for example) a youtube video on a line by itself?

Let’s try it, a random past video from the LEC.

Aye, oneboxing. Tried without the extra time interval on the end but same issue.
Seems the embed needs an extra parameter now?

Aha we should fix this if we can @sam … if we can, before the release, if it is an easy one.
