Watchtime V2.0 has been updated to reflect this and there is an argument that you need to change to match the minutes set on the event. Also a bug was addressed where parsing the watchtime would return formatted incorrectly. The old version wil… In the new version of the Streamer bot, the “events” tab no longer exists. Does something else have to be done now? ---

hi thanks for this project, I have a question, how do I know how long the user has been looking with his username? Is there a file where all the data is saved? ---

This extension was coded to store into the variable %watchtime% in seconds. So make sure whatever you are importing is converted over to seconds and you should be fine. ---

Sorry just a quick question - does this pull the watchtime info from the first day the user has been following you or does it just start counting when the watchtime action is set up? If that is the case, is there a way to get that data and import it for a more accurate watch time for viewers? ---

Where do I find this? I checked the global variables and there is nothing there. I want to be able to reset watchtime at will. Is this possible? What about checking the watchtime in list format for all users?
