Deep Link
Twitched utilizes Roku's Deep Linking protocol, allowing live streams and videos to be launch directly. See External Control API for information on how to launch a channel remotely on a Roku and pass it parameters.
Twitched offers two content links, live streams, and videos on demand. Any invalid deep link parameters will be ignored and the channel will launch normally. This will also be the case if the specified stream is offline or the video ID is not valid.
Live streams can be launched with the streamer name or ID directly in the content ID.
| contentID | mediaType |
|---|---|
| twitch_stream_[STEAMER NAME OR ID HERE] | live |
Example: ?contentId=twitch_stream_yogscast&mediaType=live
Alternativly, the streamer name or ID can be passed as another query paramerter. Only the user name parameter or id parameter should be passed. Passing both parameters will result in undefined behavior.
| contentID | mediaType | twitch_user_name | twitch_user_id |
|---|---|---|---|
| twitch_stream | live | [STREAMER NAME] | [STREAMER ID] |
Example: ?contentID=twitch_stream&mediaType=live&twitch_user_name=yogscast
Videos can be launched using their ID.
| contentID | mediaType |
|---|---|
| twitch_video_[VIDEO ID] | special |
Example: ?contentID=twitch_video_9763379&mediaType=special
