Live Streaming Update and More Protocol Changes!

What about embeds? I don't need a scrape for uStream, just to be able to do a scheduled embed. But it's not a big deal since twitch.tv is the preferred service

That is possible, I programmed the system so that services can have channels, without the periodic stream scrapes, to support systems like uStream and Livestream that don't have scrape support in their APIs....

The problem is right now fetching channel information from uStream is almost impossible. Ustream actually has two different types of channels... example:

http://www.ustream.tv/leolaporte
http://www.ustream.tv/channel/leolaporte

These are actually two DIFFERENT channels. You can fetch channel information about "channel/leolaport", but not "leolaporte". Now when someone tries to use embed codes to put a ustream channel in a post, there is no way for the system to determine which type of channel it is... if its the first type, then we're out of luck.
 
How hard would it be to add a stream link to a tournament thread and have it appear on the stream page like we used to have previously?

Other than that, everything looks great.
