twitch.tv/riotgames not working #1448

Open crorens opened 8 years ago

Hi,

When i try to run livestreamer on twitch.tv/riotgames it does not work, the error message is: "no streams found at url: twitch.tv/riotgames". But if i try any other channel on twitch it works perfectly fine. Is riotgames channel banned on your service or am I doing something wrong?

Thanks

Did you make sure this time that you actually want to watch twitch.tv/riotgames and not twitch.tv/nalcs1, like the last time when you opened a issue about it? (See #1354)

The reason should be clear by now: Riot Games is hosting EULCS1.

Riot Games is using Channel Hosting, which gives broadcasters the ability to feature other channels.
