Title: Why is there a fake video for song requests?
Post by: darthclide on February 07, 2015, 05:03:26 AM
If somebody requests a song before I open the music tab, it doesn't play. None of the buttons work, and I end up having to wait until somebody requests a second song for me to be able to play it.

Also, is there a reason why songs that are disabled by the owner and/or restricted in my country, allowed into the queue? Shouldn't there be an API request that checks these things?

Why not just have a default playlist, and just play it, then remove the video that doesn't work? You still have to do it manually, but ya I get those videos to. :P

Ummm, why not include API requests to google to stop this from happening? It is very frustrating to viewers when they request a song and it doesn't give them an error and they wonder why their song didn't play.

Also, this still doesn't answer the question in my subject. Why is there this fake video? It honestly looked like some hackey way to fix a "no songs in queue" issue. It should be as simple as someone requests song and it immediately plays without any "fake video" already being there.

The initial video is to ensure the streamer can confirm that the player has loaded successfully.

As for the video validation, it is already built in the next update.

Hmm, then you need to make it automatically work without me needing to click on the music tab first. I should be able to just open deepbot, and immediately have song requests work. This is very good to hear about the next update though.
