afreeca_vlc.sh

This script allows you to watch afreeca.com streams via vlc using streamlink as backend. It uses a simple list of bw streamers which should be updated manually in case some player is missing.

Installation (Archlinux/Manjaro, use your distro package manager otherwise)

1. Make sure you have vlc installed.

   sudo pacman -S vlc

2. Install streamlink

   sudo pacman -S streamlink

3. Use afreeca.py (which is provided in this repo) to replace the one installed with streamlink.

   sudo cp afreeca.py /usr/lib/python3.6/site-packages/streamlink/plugins/afreeca.py

4. Put the script somewhere in /usr/local/bin for example.

   sudo cp afreeca_vlc.sh /usr/local/bin
