Open ROMaster2 opened 9 years ago
As from what I found, the usual YT API supports Youtube Gaming, but requires you to use videoCategoryId=20
as param.

I won't test it, because since v2 is abandoned, I'm no longer using the API.
From my attempts of using the YouTube plugin it appears to be working differently from YouTube.
I'm currently watching some live streams, so I guess it's already supported.

Livestreamers YouTube plugin seems to be fully compatible with YouTube Gaming.

Anything new on this? I tried it but it doesn't work, the video is frozen in vlc.
livestreamer is no longer being developed and you should move over to streamlink, which is a fork of livestreamer and under active development. https://github.com/streamlink/streamlink
From my attempts of using the YouTube plugin it appears to be working differently from YouTube. Support for this would be nice.
