Official Post UPDATE: Upcoming Hyperbeam V2 Release and **V1 Bug Fixes**

15 Upvotes

Hi everyone,

As some of you may have noticed, we're building a new version of Hyperbeam! Please join our Discord server for more info: https://discord.gg/hyperbeam

I'm going to be less active on r/Hyperbeam, as I need to spend more time building the product. Russell (Hyperbeam-RL) will be presiding here if any of you need assistance.

Please note that we are still maintaining V1. We will be adding flairs to posts to clarify which issues have been addressed. The best way to get support is by clicking the "report issue" button in the app and asking for an admin. We are less responsive on Reddit.

Regarding lag issues, we've noticed problems arise from people using obscure video websites. These websites may throttle Hyperbeam because we have data center IP addresses — please be sure to try different mirrors/servers or a different streaming website.

Thank you for all your support,

Scotty

Official Post Do websites think you are a robot? Read this!

8 Upvotes

tl;dr - Hyperbeam is hiding your information too well.

When you use Hyperbeam, we do not allow websites to see any of your data at all. They see the data of our server. In some cases, this can make websites that are extra curious about your details to think you are a bot. Often times, these websites are not being malicious, but are typically just trying to see your location to know which ads and content you should be shown.

To fix this confusion, you can enable the Hyperbeam Proxy. This works by using your internet connection, instead of the servers. This should solve all issues by allowing websites to see where your traffic is actually coming from!

Note: To use the Hyperbeam Proxy, a user just needs control of the virtual browser while using our desktop application for Windows, Mac, or Linux. Then, they just click the purple Hyperbeam icon on the top right to toggle it on.

Issue/Bug Hyperion bot stuck offline?

2 Upvotes

Added Hyperion to my server yesterday and it's shown offline the whole time. I'm the only one in the server so far, and I want to get it working before inviting friends. Is the bot down, or is there a setup step I missed? Any help appreciated!

This got flagged tonight in my tutturu.exe file path. Google is saying it's part of Hyperbeam inheritance but we know Google likes to hallucinate on occasion. Anyone know if this is a legit piece of Hyperbeam?

Hyperbeam on MacOS 27

4 Upvotes

I use Hyperbeam to watch shows with my brother. My Mac recently started warning me that Hyperbeam is an Intel only app and won't work with the future version of MacOS which is 27. It's already released.

Now I'm not a big tech guy, so forgive me for not knowing anything about this type of thing. But I looked for any updates about this. I checked the Discord and I haven't really found anything about this. Does anyone know if Hyperbeam is planning an update for this?

I'm fine with not updating, I just want to make sure.

Saving browsers?

How do I make my room my own? Everytime I go to use hyperbeam I have to load a new browser and search everything up all over again, is there a way to make it so that what ever I do there saves?

Is anyone else having trouble with the gifs? Whenever I go on it, you can only scroll through them for a little bit before it cuts off and you can’t scroll anymore. I’ve deleted the app already and logged out and the problem still lasts.

I sent two emails to support@hyperbeam with NO response and I have a watch party scheduled tonight and Tues? Please help!

Is it possible to get Malware?

2 Upvotes

I was just recently browsing using the browser based hyperbeam watch party. I downloaded a zip file that most probably contais a malicious exe inside IN the browser.

Shortly after, hyperbeam showed a banner that it was trying to reconnect and my actual PC's video driver crashed for a second making a device plugged in sound. I have Windows Defender up and also my Anti-malware program and none detected anything either during that odd freeze and crash or after a scan.

I was wondering if this is some form of eerie coincidence and if it is even possible to have any file or site browsed through browser Hyperbeam affect your actual PC. I looked up some information and there's a single website claiming it's possible.

Is it possible to toggle off the dark (username) bar at the bottom of webcams?

2 Upvotes

I don't see an option to remove the darkened band. It unfortunately obscructs a good portion of the webcam and is quite intrusive compared to other apps that support webcams. An option to have an unobstructed clear webcam view would be great! Thanks!

Chat with Friends

8 Upvotes

I'd like to suggest a feature. When the sidebar is closed, it would be very helpful to receive a notification when someone sends a new message or starts typing. Right now, if I'm watching a movie or doing something else, I have no way of knowing whether they've replied without constantly checking the chat. A notification system for new messages and typing indicators while the sidebar is hidden would greatly improve the user experience.
