📦 Installation
Please take a look at the documentation for different ways of installing Streamlink:
👍 Features
Streamlink is built on top of a plugin system which allows support for new services to be added easily.
Most of the popular streaming services are supported, such as:
... and many more. A list of all plugins currently included can be found on the plugins page.
💡 Quickstart
After installing, simply run:
streamlink "STREAMURL" best
The default behavior of Streamlink is to play back streams in the VLC player, but a lot of other options and output methods are available, such as writing the stream to the filesystem, reading stream metadata, etc.
For more in-depth usage, please refer to the CLI documentation.
An API guide and API reference is available for Python implementors of Streamlink.
