<h2><a name="localsubonly">Local Subscriber-Only Mode</a></h2>
|
||
|
<p>You can create your own local subonly mode, which ignores all messages
|
||
|
written by non-subscribers.</p>
|
||
|
|
||
|
<p>Features used: <a href="help-settings.html#Ignore">Ignore System</a>, <a href="help-addressbook.html">Addressbook</a>,
|
||
|
<a href="help-settings.html#Commands">Custom Commands</a></p>
|
||
|
|
||
|
<h3>Create Ignore Entry</h3>
|
||
|
<p>Go to <code>Main - Settings - Ignore</code> and make sure <code>Enable Ignore</code>
|
||
|
is ticked. Then add to the list (press the Plus-Button):</p>
|
||
|
<p><code>!status:smbaf chanCat:subonly</code></p>
|
||
|
<p>The <code>!status:smbaf</code> prefix matches on messages send by users that
|
||
|
<em>don't</em> have any of the status levels defined, in this case users
|
||
|
that are neither a subscriber (<code>s</code>), moderator (<code>m</code>), broadcaster (<code>b</code>),
|
||
|
admin (<code>a</code>) or staff (<code>f</code>). So basicially this only matches on normal users.</p>
|
||
|
<p>The second requirement for a match is the <code>chanCat:subonly</code>
|
||
|
prefix, which refers to the channel category <code>subonly</code>, which
|
||
|
means the channel the message was send in needs to have that Addressbook category.
|
||
|
This is used to be able to easily toggle subonly-mode for a channel, and
|
||
|
of course to prevent it being enabled in all channels you join in the
|
||
|
first place.</p>
|
||
|
|
||
|
<h3>Create Custom Command to modify Addressbook</h3>
|
||
|
<p>To make use of the Ignore Entry defined in the previous section, you need
|
||
|
to add the <code>subonly</code> category to the channel you want to have
|
||
|
it enabled for. To do this, you could open the Addressbook Dialog
|
||
|
(<code>Channels - Addressbook</code>) and add the channel with the
|
||
|
category there (channels need a leading # in this case, so e.g. <code>#joshimuz</code>).</p>
|
||
|
|
||
|
<p>You can however also use <a href="help-addressbook.html#commands">Addressbook Commands</a>:</p>
|
||
|
<p><code>/ab change #joshimuz !subonly</code></p>
|
||
|
<p>This toggles the <code>subonly</code> category for the given channel, so
|
||
|
when the category is there, it removes the category, and when the category is not there,
|
||
|
it adds the category.</p>
|
||
|
<p>To do this a bit more conveniently, you can add it as a custom command. Go
|
||
|
to <code>Main - Settings - Commands</code> and add the following to the
|
||
|
list:</p>
|
||
|
<p><code>/Toggle_Subonly /ab change #$$1 !subonly</code></p>
|
||
|
<p>If you enter <code>/Toggle_Subonly joshimuz</code>, this will automatically
|
||
|
run the Addressbook as mentioned above (<code>$$1</code> means this is
|
||
|
being replaced with the first word after the command).</p>
|
||
|
|
||
|
<p>To make this more convenient (entering the command with the correct channel
|
||
|
could be a bit of a hassle), add the Custom Command to the <code>Channel Context Menu</code>
|
||
|
(on the same page in the settings). Just click on <code>Edit</code> and add
|
||
|
the command name (without any parameters):</p>
|
||
|
<p><code>/Toggle_Subonly</code></p>
|
||
|
<p>Now if you right-click on a channel, the context menu that opens should
|
||
|
have an entry <code>Toggle Subonly</code>, which you can
|
||
|
use to turn your own local subonly mode for the current channel on and off.</p>

<h3>Stay informed</h3>
|
||
|
<ul>
|
||
|
<li>Open the <code><View - Channel Info></code> to see your current
|
||
|
stream title/game, a graph of your viewercount and how long your current
|
||
|
stream already is going.</li>
|
||
|
<li>Open the <code><Extra - Followers/Subscribers></code> dialog
|
||
|
to view your 100 most recent Followers/Subscribers and some stats based
|
||
|
on that.</li>
|
||
|
</ul>
|
||
|
|
||
|
<h3>Manage your stream</h3>
|
||
|
<ul>
|
||
|
<li>Open the <code><View - Channel Admin></code> dialog to change
|
||
|
the title/game of your stream and run commercials:
|
||
|
<ul>
|
||
|
<li>Presets/History for title/game combinations</li>
|
||
|
<li>Favorite games you play often</li>
|
||
|
<li>Run commercials on a delay and/or timer</li>
|
||
|
<li>Run commercials while playing a game via a global hotkey
|
||
|
(Windows only)</li>
|
||
|
</ul>
|
||
|
</li>
|
||
|
</ul>
|
||
|
|
||
|
<h3>Capture chat for on-stream chat</h3>
|
||
|
<ul>
|
||
|
<li>Customize chat colors, for example change to black background to be
|
||
|
able to make the background transparent in your streaming program.</li>
|
||
|
<li>If you capture Chatty with your streaming program, make sure to
|
||
|
enable the setting <code>Settings - Window - Always show chat scrollbar</code>, so you can always capture the same
|
||
|
region, independant of how many messages are in the chat window.</li>
|
||
|
<li>Change the font so it shows up nicely on stream.</li>
|
||
|
<li>If you want to have all text in bold - not just the names - you can
|
||
|
set the font by command like this: <code>/set font Arial Bold</code>.</li>
|
||
|
<li>You can clear the chat window by using the <code>/clearchat</code>
|
||
|
command (e.g. if you changed some settings before starting the stream
|
||
|
you don't want to show).</li>
|
||
|
</ul>

<h2><a name="eventchat">Join Eventchat</a></h2>
|
||
|
<p>Sometimes there are channels that run on a special set of event chat
|
||
|
servers, so they are seperated from the channels you see when you join
|
||
|
<code>irc.twitch.tv</code>. This only applies to webchat (at the moment
|
||
|
at least), so often the chat you get connecting to <code>irc.twitch.tv</code>
|
||
|
is called "mobile chat", because the mobile apps apparently also don't
|
||
|
support event chat.</p>
|
||
|
|
||
|
<p>See this <a href="http://help.twitch.tv/customer/portal/questions/8152306-can-t-see-chat-of-some-channels-on-irc-">
|
||
|
Twitch Support Center entry</a> or <a href="http://twitchstatus.com/#chat">Twitchstatus.com</a> for an (unofficial) list
|
||
|
of servers.</p>
|
||
|
|
||
|
<p>What you have to do in Chatty to be able to get the
|
||
|
event chat instead of the "normal chat" that is only used by IRC and
|
||
|
mobile users, is connect to a different server. Since Chatty can only
|
||
|
connect to one server at a time, you either have to only join channels
|
||
|
that are on the event chat servers, or run two <a href="help-guide1.html">seperate instances</a> of
|
||
|
Chatty at the same time.</p>
|
||
|
|
||
|
<p>There are different ways of connecting to a different server:</p>
|
||
|
<ul>
|
||
|
<li>The <code>/server <host>[:port]</code> command connects to the given server and
|
||
|
port manually.</li>
|
||
|
<li>The <code>-server</code> and <code>-port</code> commandline options
|
||
|
allow you to specify a different server when you start Chatty.</li>
|
||
|
<li>The <code>Server</code> and <code>Port</code> settings in the
|
||
|
Settings Dialog under <code>Advanced</code> allows you to set
|
||
|
fixed settings for the server to connect to. This especially makes sense
|
||
|
if you are using <a href="help-guide1.html">seperate settings for different instances</a> of Chatty.</li>
|
||
|
