streamlink

Extracts streams from various services and pipes them into a video player of choice. More information: https://streamlink.github.io.

• Attempt to extract streams from the URL specified, and if it's successful, print out a list of available streams to choose from:
  streamlink {{example.com/stream}}
• Open a stream with the specified quality:
  streamlink {{example.com/stream}} {{720p60}}
• Select the highest or lowest available quality:
  streamlink {{example.com/stream}} {{best|worst}}
• Specify which player to use to feed stream data to (VLC is used by default if found):
  streamlink --player={{mpv}} {{example.com/stream}} {{best}}
• Specify the amount of time to skip from the beginning of the stream. For live streams, this is a negative offset from the end of the stream (rewind):
  streamlink --hls-start-offset {{[HH:]MM:SS}} {{example.com/stream}} {{best}}
• Skip to the beginning of a live stream, or as far back as possible:
  streamlink --hls-live-restart {{example.com/stream}} {{best}}
• Write stream data to a file instead of playing it:
  streamlink --output {{path/to/file.ts}} {{example.com/stream}} {{best}}
• Open the stream in the player, while at the same time writing it to a file:
  streamlink --record {{path/to/file.ts}} {{example.com/stream}} {{best}}
