Both VODs and livestreams seem impacted.

Same here for me, unfortunately. Android 14, latest version of Twire.

I encountered the issue multiple times already, it seems the twitch api has some strange behaviour when fetching the stream info.
I also had troubles to play streams a few days ago but today it's working.
Thanks for the input @LoneFenris, it should be easy to add a fallback in case of missing non-video related information.

It seems like twitch is doing something because I am having this error intermittently as well. Once the error happens again I'll look into this. I suspect this is related to streamlink/streamlink#5414.

Also apologizes I haven't been able to work on this project for a few months because I haven't been able to sit due to some extreme back pain. Things have been getting better recently and I am going to try to get out an update soon.

I got stuck unable to watch a stream at all today due to this error no matter how many times I reloaded. I tracked it down to being related to the Proxies. Once I disabled the Proxy, streams worked fine again. Of course this also functionally disables the adblock, but that appears to be where the issue is, if you haven't found it yet.
