Streamlink 1.4.0 Adds Low Latency Streaming On Twitch, Fixes YouTube Plugin (CLI Tool To Pipe Livestreams To VLC or mpv)
Streamlink 1.4.0 has been released with support for low latency streaming on Twitch, fixed YouTube plugin, and more.
Streamlink is a free and open source command line utility which pipes live video streams to players like VLC, mpv, MPlayer, OMXPlayer or MPC-HC, with the purpose of avoiding resource-heavy websites (and on Linux, to use hardware-accelerated video playback). It was forked over 3 years ago from Livestreamer, which is no longer maintained, and runs on Windows, macOS, and Linux.
The tool uses a plugin system which allows easy addition of new streaming services, and it supports more than 300 streaming websites, including Twitch, YouTube, Livestream, DLive, Mixer, Dailymotion, BBC iPlayer, ITV Player, NBC, Periscope, Vimeo, VK.com, and many more.
