A windows GUI for streamlink / livestreamer written in .NET
The UI layout was influenced by Skadi which is a java GUI for livestreamer.
TIP: You can configure what is considered a "popular stream" in the settings menu (cog icon on right of titlebar)
# Number of threads to use when streaming HLS streams
hls-segment-threads=4
twitch-low-latency twitch-disable-ads hls-live-edge=1
### Why make another livestreamer GUI?
I didn't like the large amount of memory used by java/web based GUIs for livestreamer and there were some features I wanted that the others didn't provide.
### FAQ
**Q. How do I add YouTube streams?**
A. You can either use the username or the channelid.
`For usernames the URL looks like this: https://www.youtube.com/user/{username}`
`For channelIds the URL looks like this: https://www.youtube.com/channel/{channelId}`
You can always get the channel id by clicking on the channel from the description of a video you are currently watching.
If the username happens to start with "UC" or "HC" then it will fail to add the channel. In this instance please use the channelid approach instead.
**Q. Why do some youtube stream chats show an error page when launched from Livestream Monitor?**
A. Some YouTube streams have chat disabled (you can see this by visiting the stream page in your browser).
I don't believe the Youtube API provides that information right now... hopefully it's something google can add in the future.
