streamlink-twitch-gui VS mpv

You may want the Streamlink Twitch GUI though for easier usage

I would suggest using StreamLink - Twitch GUI

I've been using https://github.com/streamlink/streamlink-twitch-gui for a while and it's really awesome if you don't care about the chat. It launches the streams through VLC and no ads whatsoever ! :)

Streamlink Twitch GUI gets around ads just fine. Just need that and something like VLC and you're golden.

I would seriously consider using streamlink twitch gui application + vlc combo or addons like Alternate player for twitch. They both have waay less overhead and consume less CPU/RAM. (With alternate player you can use firefox's PIP functionality by SHIFT+RightClicking on the video)

Twitch has fixed how they are sending embedded ads but if you have turbo you can link your twitch OAuth token to it and not get ads https://github.com/streamlink/streamlink-twitch-gui/issues/754

you could use this i believe it doesnt server you ads when watching from this: https://github.com/streamlink/streamlink-twitch-gui

Read this https://github.com/streamlink/streamlink-twitch-gui/issues/914

https://mpv.io/ has yt-dlp support, if yt-dlp is installed you just need to throw the URL at it and it plays the video (without download).

See https://github.com/mpv-player/mpv/issues/9053

I apologise for not following procedure. I am in the middle of building mpv 0.37 from source. Irrespective of the outcome I will document what I had to do in addition to the instructions on mpv.io and if the problem perststs, where it happens and where not with kernel version, mpv version taken from the screen, and the terminal output.

Use MPV. Partticularily shinchiro's builds. Extract the folder where you want its installation directory to be, if you decide to install it. Otherwise, just drag and drop files on top of its window or executable.

Author of ripgrep here.

Like automatic encoding detection and transparently searching UTF-16?

Or simple ways for composing character classes, e.g., `[\pL&&\p{Greek}]` for all codepoints in the Greek script that are letters. Another favorite of mine is `\P{ascii}`, which will search for any codepoint that isn't in the ASCII subset.

Or more sophisticated filtering features that let you automatically respect things like gitignore rules.

Those are all things that ripgrep does that grep does not. So I do not favor this explanation personally.

ripgrep has just about all of the functionality that GNU grep does. I would say the two biggest missing pieces at this point are:

* POSIX locale support. (But this might be a feature[1].)

* Support for "basic" regexes or some equivalent that flips the escaping rules around. i.e., You need to write `\+` to match 1 or more things, where as `+` will just match `+ literally.

Otherwise, ripgrep has unfortunately grown just about as many flags as GNU grep.
