Congrats on making it into the official Kodi repository. This afternoon I began experiencing an issue with commercials appearing in the middle of watching a stream and preroll (before the video stream starts in Kodi) I am a Twitch Turbo subscriber so I should not be seeing ads at anytime. Is there something that needs update with the addon, I just updated to the latest version available v 2.5.2.
edit: Do OATH tokens need to be regenerated if going from 2.5.1 to 2.5.2? If so, following the instructions on the GitHub page appear to work, but do not generate a new code, just loops back to twitch.tv and you are not signed into your account.
edit 2: That being said, the settings I had present from 2.5.1 do work for my "Following" lists and block ads on streams I am subbed to, just specifically my "Twitch Turbo" sub is not blocking ads on channels I am not directly subbed to.

You don't need a new oauth, Twitch shows the ads in stream so it's likely a temporary issue on their end. You can also enable and configure InputStream Adaptive, and use the Adaptive quality in the Twitch add-on.

mmmmmmm... i have a streamer (ZEB89) as change his stream resolution. Now it's use 1080p at 60fps. I have try to watch some past stream and I don't know why only the video tracks it's be reproduced completely jerky. If in preferences i enable to ask for quality ever and i choose 720p-60fps all it's ok but if i choose 1080p all goes jerky.
apparently it doesn't seem like a buffering problem and i have also tryed to enable to use mpeg dash....... i also don't thinks it's an hardware limit (i use osmc on raspberry pi2) because on other addons another video whit similar resolution it's be reproduced whitout any issue....
...only on your "little world" can you lay down the law...

I am seeing ads again. I have Twitch Turbo subscription and even seeing them happen on channels I am specifically subscribed to. Seems to happen between 6pm-9pm EST. Also, while I am sure its not the addon's fault, maybe Twitch is working on something in the background that is breaking the API from correctly seeing account details to let them know to leave me out of the ads. I am surprised no one else has noticed this. Logs do not point out anything or requests to different urls when ads happen.

I am also seeing a lot of ads, including for a channel that I have tier 1 subscription to. I am using Kodi 18.8 on Ubuntu 20.04 and twitch addon 2.5.3.
