🔌 StreamAnnouncer-Bridge (Premium Only)
The premium version supports a companion StreamAnnouncer-Bridge plugin on your backend Spigot/Paper servers, enabling:
- 🖥️ Command execution from Velocity — Give items, run reward commands when streamers go live/offline or during streaming. All messages are HMAC-signed for security.
- 📊 PlaceholderAPI support — Display live streaming status in scoreboards, tab lists, chat prefixes, and more.
⚠️ The Lite version does not support the Bridge plugin. Plugin messaging, MySQL sync, backend command execution, and PlaceholderAPI are all premium-only features.
