API falsely reporting a channel offline

API
1

Hello,

This bug has been around for ages. https://api.twitch.tv/kraken/streams/ occasionally shows some channels offline on a consistent basis. Even if they have been streaming for hours. Could we get some acknowledgement on the matter or is there actually a workaround available to see whether a channel is online or not?

Thank you.

There are various reasons for this.

Personally I just wait for a channel to be offline for 3-5 minutes before counting it as offline.
