README.md

Streamlink

Build Status codecov.io

Streamlink is a CLI utility that pipes flash videos from online streaming services to a variety of video players such as VLC, or alternatively, a browser.

The main purpose of streamlink is to convert CPU-heavy flash plugins to a less CPU-intensive format.

Streamlink is a fork of the livestreamer project.

Installation

Streamlink can be installed by using Python or through the installers below.

Installation via Python pip:

sudo pip install streamlink

Note: For Windows, omit "sudo"

Manual installation via Python:

git clone https://github.com/streamlink/streamlink
sudo python setup.py install

Installers for Windows/Mac/Linux:

Features

Streamlink is built via a plugin system which allows new services to be easily added.

Major streaming services such as:

Are supported.

A full list of plugins can be found on the plugin page.

Quickstart

After installation simply use:

streamlink twitch.tv/lirik source

And Streamlink will automatically open a default video player and begin streaming!

For full details on how to use Streamlink visit our documentation at streamlink.github.io
