A system tray application for monitoring livestreams status

Project description

StreamCondor

StreamCondor is a lightweight system-tray utility that monitors livestreams and opens them with Streamlink.

Features

  • 🔔 Real-time Stream Monitoring - Automatically detect when your favorite streamers go live
  • 🎯 Multi-platform Support - Works with Twitch, YouTube and any Streamlink-supported platform
  • 🖥️ System Tray Integration - Unobtrusive monitoring with visual status indicators
  • 🎨 Custom Player Support - Launch streams with mpv, VLC, or your preferred media player
  • ⚙️ Flexible Configuration - Per-stream settings for quality, notifications, and streamlink arguments
  • 🌐 Favicon Support - Automatic platform icon fetching and caching
  • 📋 Clipboard Integration - Quick stream launching from copied URLs

Supported platforms: Linux, Windows, macOS (desktop with a system tray)

Minimum requirement: Python 3.12

Install (recommended)

Install the release from PyPI:

pip install streamcondor

Run the installed app:

streamcondor

Run from source (no install)

To run a local copy without installing the package:

git clone https://github.com/tarzasai/StreamCondor.git
cd StreamCondor
PYTHONPATH="$PWD/src" python -m streamcondor.main

This runs the application using the sources in src/streamcondor.

Configuration file locations

StreamCondor stores a single JSON configuration file per user:

  • Linux: ~/.config/StreamCondor.json
  • Windows: %APPDATA%\StreamCondor.json
  • macOS: ~/Library/Application Support/StreamCondor.json

If the file is missing the app starts with reasonable defaults; open the Settings UI to manage streams.

Troubleshooting

  • No tray icon: ensure your desktop environment provides a system tray (some Wayland setups may need extra support).
  • Icons missing: install from PyPI (the packaged wheel includes assets) or ensure src/streamcondor/assets exists when running from source.
  • If the app exits or shows errors, run in a terminal to see logs:
streamcondor --help
# or when running from source
PYTHONPATH="$PWD/src" python -m streamcondor.main --log-level DEBUG
