Twitch isn't working for some reason #1590

Open MightyBalls6 opened 7 years ago

MightyBalls6 commented 7 years ago

Hello, I've been using livestreamer for a while now to watch Twitch streams, though it just suddenly stopped working recently. I'd love to tell you what it says, but the window just closes instantly before I can read anything... I have the auth thing that happened a while ago. That's about all I can really say. I'd appreciate any help.

I can add to this saying its an HTTP:400 bad request, but why its doing so I'm unsure of unless its a twitch side change

Use https://github.com/streamlink/streamlink instead.

Livestreamer has been abandoned. Please try our fork of Livestreamer at http://github.com/streamlink/streamlink

Why was this done? They've not only broken most linux distros that aren't bleeding edge Ubut-tu, they're claiming the project like it's theirs.

@h1z1

@chrippa has abandoned Livestreamer. Even after multiple notifications / tweeting to him / even going as far as emailing the company he works for, he's never responded back to anything.

Forking was the most logical thing to do and to continue development.
