Hello, I try to use the answer of a [tmi.twitch.tv](http://tmi.twitch.tv) request but javascript dont see it as Json answer ! Let me explain : My Javascript works correctly with answers of [api.twitch.tv](http://api.twitch.tv) but not with tmi answers. I have verified the tmi request with Restlet Client and is correct. I use $.getJSON fonction thank you in advance ---

Since [tmi.twitch.tv](http://tmi.twitch.tv) is not intended for use by 3rd party devs it does not support CORS (access-control-allow-origin header) thus it cannot be accessed directly by a browser Javascript application. You will need to “proxy” the request through a server-side script if you need that data in Javascript. ---
