Twitch isn't streaming properly

I began investigating this issue today and I've reached out to Twitch support about it. It seems like the official Twitch embed API doesn't work in IFrames right now, as there's a GraphQL endpoint error when retrieving a playback token using the embed type. When viewing the IFrame directly it works but the type is popout. This isn't something I can directly modify in TVS code as it's part of Twitch's embed v1 script.

I don't think a new build will fix this since we dynamically load the Twitch embed script from their CDN, but I'm adding this issue to track progress in getting it resolved.

It looks like this may be isolated to users of Brave browser. I've looked into it for a few hours and it only fails there.

I also found this thread when searching around: https://linustechtips.com/topic/1615501-brave-browser-now-blocks-twitch-ads-by-default/ so it looks like there may be more to this.

For now I'd recommend using Edge or Chrome if using Twitch.
