About

Watch live and on-demand streams in a video player of your choice instead of in a heavy website. Give Streamlink an address from a supported service such as Twitch or YouTube, and it passes the stream to the player.

VLC is the default player, but you can also write the stream to a file or read its metadata. Support for each service comes from plugins, so new ones are easy to add. It is a command-line tool and also a Python library for developers.

Highlights

  • Plays streams in VLC or another player
  • Plugins for Twitch, YouTube and more
  • Can save a stream to a file

Who it's for
