https://developers.video.ibm.com/channel-api/channel.html requests are made per the channel ID. The only place I am able to find the channel ID listed on the site is through the iframe given when trying to embed.

Research direction
Start at src/components/StreamEmbed.jsx#L28 and compare the channel-ID and channel-name embed URLs in the issue. Run the two listed Ustream API requests and inspect the servicepoller handling mentioned in the report. Done means the channel embed works with the intended channelName and the relevant API lookup uses the correct identifier.
