That's really cool! Do you have a github with that?

I wrote something similar (a CLI tool in Haskell), but I'd like to remove the necessity to install anything except a media player...

it's noticeably worse, I'm using MPC instead of VLC, could that be the problem?

I don't have it, although I might consider setting one up.

Obviously removing the Livestreamer/Streamlink dependency would be great, but that would also mean that any changes made in the endpoints would need to be addressed by you, making the app harder to maintain. Leaving that responsibility to Streamlink and building a GUI on top of it is just a easier choice.

yes Somehow livestreamer chooses the 'worst' quality option instead, it would appear. I manually chose it from cmd and the quality stayed the same.

Well, crap. I don't know what the problem would be. =( I only barely know how to use Livestreamer. I just updated an existing guide that worked well for me. If there's a configuration option somewhere that could fix this for you, I don't know of it.

Reinstalled the livestreamer just in case and naturally now it's giving me "No plugin can handle URL: afreecatv.com/horang2" lol rip
edit: got it to work but the quality stays shit. Are you sure you have the same quality in the browser, Aylear?

When I made the guide it looked the same, but I can't confirm it still does because I can't actually watch Afreeca on my browser at all. It buffers endlessly. Every 20 seconds it comes back for 0.2 seconds and then buffers again. I have to set the quality down from Source to High in the stream player, at which point 1) it looks significantly worse than it does on my VLC/Livestreamer setup, and 2) it still buffers occasionally.

It is possible that Livestreamer doesn't stream in Source from Afreeca, but I can at least confirm it looks better than High.

Welcome back to Brood War.

Afreeca is the most popular streaming service in South Korea. Most top SC/BW players have a channel from which they stream their practice games every day.

Unfortunately, Afreeca occasionally lags for foreigners (depending on the Afreeca server currently assigned to serve users), and the interface is confusing if you can't read Korean. Players frequently use random IDs on Afreeca: (Wiki)Bisu is "rlaxordyd", (Wiki)Last is "rlatjdgus228", (Wiki)Shuttle is "jk890202". These are their stream names even when watching an embedded stream from TeamLiquid, so it quickly becomes confusing.

The easiest and most convenient way to watch Afreeca is using Livestreamer. This is a command line utility that connects live streams to a media player (usually VLC). For convenience, RoX.Malki created a .bat file which simplifies the process. The installation is a bit annoying, but after that it's easy to connect.


Installation
(Most of this information taken from defiler.ru. I have updated the information and fixed some broken scripts.)

+ Show Spoiler [Click for Linux instructions] +
On August 23 2016 23:12 letian wrote:
Ok, I figured it out for Linux.
1. First uninstall with your package manager any previous versions of livestreamer.
For archlinux/manjaro: sudo pacman -Rcn livestreamer

2. Do not add to /etc/hosts "121.156.109.165 chromecast.afreeca.gscdn.com"
3. Download my livestreamer fork with all afreeca modifications included.
git clone https://github.com/tastyminerals/livestreamer.git livestreamer-tasty
4. cd livestreamer-tasty
5. sudo python3 setup.py install

Now you can use afreeca.sh to play streams!
Use !online command to get currently available streamers, use exit to quit afreeca.sh.


    1)

    • Install VLC Media Player (install to default directory or be prepared to edit the .bat file later)
    • Install Livestreamer (grab the installer package)

    When Livestreamer finishes installing, tick the "Edit configuration file" option:

    [image loading]

    Now add the following lines to the bottom of the configuration file:

    stream-types=hls
    hls-segment-threads=4
    default-stream=best

    Save and exit.

    Note: You can find this config file again by going to %appdata%/livestreamer/livestreamerrc


    2)

    Go to your Livestreamer plugins folder. From wherever you installed it [default is C:\Program Files (x86)]:
    ...\Livestreamer\livestreamer-1.12.2-py2.7.egg\livestreamer\plugins

    Delete the file afreecatv.pyc (note: NOT afreeca.pyc, but afreecatv.pyc)
    Download afreecatv.py (right-click and save as) and place it in the stream folder.

    The plugins folder should now look like this:

    [image loading]


    3)

    Go to your Livestreamer stream folder. From wherever you installed it [default is C:\Program Files (x86)]:
    ...\Livestreamer\livestreamer-1.12.2-py2.7.egg\livestreamer\stream

    Delete the file hls.pyc
    Download hls.py (right-click and save as) and place it in the stream folder.

    The stream folder should now look like this:

    [image loading]


    4)

    Download the .bat file appropriate for your system:

    Download hls.py (right-click and save as) and place it in the stream folder.

    Windows 64-bit: afreeca_x64.bat (right-click and save as)
    Windows 32-bit: afreeca_x86.bat (go to link, click download)

    Note: The only difference between the two .bat files is the specified path of VLC media player. If you installed VLC to a custom location you will need to edit the .bat file now. Click the spoiler below.

    + Show Spoiler [If VLC installed to custom folder] +
    If you installed VLC to a custom folder, you will have to edit the .bat file to point to the proper location. Example: If you installed VLC to the D:\ drive, you would need to change

      start /B livestreamer --loglevel=error --player="C:\Program Files (x86)\VideoLAN\VLC\vlc.exe --file-caching=5000 --network-caching=5000 --meta-title=%name%" afreeca.com/%id%

    to

      start /B livestreamer --loglevel=error --player="D:\VideoLAN\VLC\vlc.exe --file-caching=5000 --network-caching=5000 --meta-title=%name%" afreeca.com/%id%


    Once you have installed everything, check the TeamLiquid sidebar to see who is currently streaming. (You can also check https://bwstreams.appspot.com/ which does the same thing.) Run the afreeca_x??.bat file, and when prompted type in the name (or Afreeca ID) of a player you want to watch. After a few moments, VLC should start up. You can keep typing in more names as well -- VLC will open new instances for each player so that you can easily multistream.

    Lastly, most players have a lot of smurfs. The Fish Server entry on Liquipedia has a list of known smurfs and aliases, so it's easy to look up who people are playing against.


Troubleshooting & FAQ
    Q: The downloads are broken, I can't grab the .py and .bat files!

    A: They're also on Pastebin. Grab them from here (go to the link and click "download" on Pastebin):

    http://pastebin.com/upgnsq8g - afreecatv.py
    http://pastebin.com/6L1zBnJA - hls.py
    http://pastebin.com/AyKrHMPF - afreeca_x64.bat
    http://pastebin.com/bF7gEyaC - afreeca_x86.bat


    Q: The stream is still lagging. Can I fix it?

    A: Possibly. I haven't needed to do this myself, but according to the guide on defiler.ru you can try the following:

      Start -> Run "cmd.exe"
      In the command line interface, type the following:

      nslookup chromecast.afreeca.gscdn.com

      Copy the IP address response, and add it to your hosts file. (See below for instructions.)

      This IP address randomizes every once in a while as Afreeca hosts from different servers. If you experience stream lag, you may want to do a quick nslookup and add the new IP address to the hosts file.

      How to add something to your hosts file

      Google the path to your hosts file if you need to. On Windows 7/8/10 it is:
      C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc\

      Right-click your hosts file, and uncheck read-only / write-protect.

      Edit the hosts file using notepad or notepad++.

      Add the IP address you received from the nslookup command, followed by "chromecast.afreeca.gscdn.com", to the bottom of the hosts file. Example:

      121.156.109.165 chromecast.afreeca.gscdn.com

      Save the hosts file, and re-enable write-protect / read-only mode. It should look like this:

      + Show Spoiler +
      [image loading]



    Q: I can't connect to some streams. When I try, I get this error message.

    A: Remove any Afreeca IPs from the hosts file (see above).


    Q: When I try to connect to a streamer I get this error message: error: Failed to start player: C:\Program Files (x86)\VideoLAN\VLC\vlc.exe --file-caching=5000 --network-caching=5000 --meta-title=psn1555 ([Error 2] The system cannot find the file specified)

    A: VLC is not installed, or VLC is not installed to the default directory, or you are using the wrong .bat file for your system, or you forgot to edit the .bat file to point Livestreamer to the proper VLC directory. See the installation instructions again for details.


    Q: I tried to connect to [player] but it says No streams found on this URL.

    A: TeamLiquid only refreshes the sidebar periodically. The player may have just gone offline. Check https://bwstreams.appspot.com/ to see who is currently live.


    Q: It takes a long time between entering a name into the command line and VLC opening.

    A: That's normal. It usually takes 10 - 45 seconds for me to connect.


    Q: What is the difference between this guide and the one on defiler.ru?

    A: Nothing, it's a blatant copy-paste so that I get credit instead of RoX.Malki. Actually, since Afreeca changed its domains around some of the old scripts were broken. For instance, I edited afreecatv.py to properly point to the new domain so you didn't have to edit it yourself. I also added direct links to the .py and .bat files to speed up the installation process. Besides that, I just made clarifications and added pictures to make things less ambiguous.


Give this man a medal! And another one, in case he loses it!

Thank you very much, streams are working smooth as silk for me now.

That's odd. I've never seen that error before. It seems to be a connectivity problem on your end from what I can deduce. Are you sure you downloaded the hls.py and afreecatv.py files and put them in the proper folders? Seems like it's an error that can come up where hls.py is used, and it's all I can think of to try.

Added those files again, strangely I didn't had hls.py (instead I had hls.pyc which I deleted). But now I get "error: No plugin can handle URL: (stream URL)". Any idea?

No idea. And not to be too rude about it, but you just told me you didn't follow the installation instructions properly. I don't know enough about Livestreamer and how it fully works to spend time troubleshooting an issue unique to you that could just end up being "lol i forgot to edit a thing you clearly specified in the OP, whoopsie!"

If you still can't get it to work, maybe try some other solutions on this forum. I haven't tried these programs myself so I can't verify that they work, but:

http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/brood-war/519028-scbw-afreeca-picker-vlc-livestreamer
Vendethiel made a frontend program instead of a .bat file that has some additional features. It supposedly doesn't require a lot of messing with Livestreamer either.

Well the reason I didn't followed your installation because it was already installed on my PC (defiler.ru one) and it was working perfecut until now and I saw that your installation is same but only plugin files changed. I tried to replace those files and still getting errors. Might try clean install then. Also lately I installed some antivirus thingy might be it blocking. Thanks for tips!

EDIT: Yeah, this fucking shit was because of antivirus, fuck them Now I can run.

Of course you're right, but it means a one-click installer for the program would be feasible. Non-technical people will not go through with "install steamlink in this and that directory". Maybe the solution is to instead package streamlink...

Curiously I'm seeing a similar issue with the lower quality tonight. Last night watching Bisu in VLC it was the same stream quality (very crisp), whereas with Snow today there's a marked difference. I wonder if it has anything to do with the number of viewers on the stream. Bisu had more transcoding options I believe.

I'll have to experiment some more and see if I can figure anything out.

My versions:
VLC 2.2.1
Livestreamer 1.11.1
Latest version of the plugins from OP


Also, does anyone happen to know of the API Afeeca exposes to get stream status, thumnails, etc? I have a Windows app I wrote that leverages the Twitch API (a glorified Livestreamer GUI with a similar UI to the Twitch website) and I'd like to expand it to incorporate Afreeca as well. I think it might end up being something this community would find useful.
