streamlink VS ytfzf

It doesn't look like Streamlink is immune to the challenges of Twitch ads: https://github.com/streamlink/streamlink/issues/4949

i can't quite tell what you're asking for but check out https://streamlink.github.io/

Take a look at this: https://github.com/streamlink/streamlink/

Streamlink != Steam Link

alternatively, you can use streamlink to stream the video and let it open vlc for you.

A summary of my use case: I like to watch Twitch streams via streamlink. For that purpose I use wtwitch, a terminal program which allows me to maintain a list of my favourite channels without a Twitch account, check which of those streamers are currently online and run a command to open their streams via streamlink.

Streamlink has very detailed and newbie friendly documentation. Here's the plugin you'd need to scrape Kick links.

I believe yt-dlp works and merges everything already for you. I use streamlink https://github.com/streamlink/streamlink for most of twitch stuff and all you have to do is pass in the vod url

Next you will need streamlink, again in the same powershell instance type.

I've been playing with ytfzf recently which is quite cool for browsing yt on grim hardware

# install python packages, including yt-dlp pip install -r requirements.txt # install ytfzf git clone https://github.com/pystardust/ytfzf cd ytfzf sudo make install doc

Sounds like you need an adBlocker. And/or alternative ways of watching YT content. Not exactly sure how this works on other OSs, but on Linux I use ytfzf to browse, and mpv to watch by youtube link.

YouTube: in Browser is a pain but ytfzf works well for me.

I am using ytfzf with a custom interface that I wrote in python because I couldn't find an interface that supports sixel.

it is one of these. I plan to use it for running cli programs like ytfzf in the terminal

fzf has long found its way into many scripts, a bit like dmenu. My favorite: ytfzf.
