Some streamers (Horang2 does this some times) will occasionally set their streams to adults-only (19+) mode. When a stream is in adults-only mode, you have to use the Korean AfreecaTV Player (proprietary software) to view it, or Afreeca will refuse your connection.

Error is coming up on all streams on all different quality settings. It also comes up regardless of whether I use the TL streamer name or their afreeca username. If you have any advice it would be greatly appreciated. This workaround has been amazingly nice for watching these streams without lag! =D [cli][error] Try 1/1: Could not open stream <HLSStream('http://live-hls-korea-cf.afreecatv.com/livestream-04/auth_playlist.m3u8?aid=.A32.7bbT56vyHM9fKZk.ZmYBzoIy-iAP1GUPu0sCkMGCkL-rLxBv9NjSBMa9A4n2Av-4QxdT7ezkataIG0RoeKF80Z1QiW1F_OZ-qRnxiEtRIVEN4gSKfQ3B8K22cfA')> (Could not open stream: Unable to open URL: http://live-hls-korea-cf.afreecatv.com/livestream-04/auth_playlist.m3u8?aid=.A32.7bbT56vyHM9fKZk.ZmYBzoIy-iAP1GUPu0sCkMGCkL-rLxBv9NjSBMa9A4n2Av-4QxdT7ezkataIG0RoeKF80Z1QiW1F_OZ-qRnxiEtRIVEN4gSKfQ3B8K22cfA (HTTPConnectionPool(host='live-hls-korea-cf.afreecatv.com', port=80): Max retries exceeded with url: /livestream-04/auth_playlist.m3u8?aid=.A32.7bbT56vyHM9fKZk.ZmYBzoIy-iAP1GUPu0sCkMGCkL-rLxBv9NjSBMa9A4n2Av-4QxdT7ezkataIG0RoeKF80Z1QiW1F_OZ-qRnxiEtRIVEN4gSKfQ3B8K22cfA&aid=.A32.7bbT56vyHM9fKZk.ZmYBzoIy-iAP1GUPu0sCkMGCkL-rLxBv9NjSBMa9A4n2Av-4QxdT7ezkataIG0RoeKF80Z1QiW1F_OZ-qRnxiEtRIVEN4gSKfQ3B8K22cfA (Caused by NewConnectionError('<urllib3.connection.HTTPConnection object at 0x0387F2F0>: Failed to establish a new connection: [Errno 11001] getaddrinfo failed',)))) error: Could not open stream <HLSStream('http://live-hls-korea-cf.afreecatv.com/livestream-04/auth_playlist.m3u8?aid=.A32.7bbT56vyHM9fKZk.ZmYBzoIy-iAP1GUPu0sCkMGCkL-rLxBv9NjSBMa9A4n2Av-4QxdT7ezkataIG0RoeKF80Z1QiW1F_OZ-qRnxiEtRIVEN4gSKfQ3B8K22cfA')>, tried 1 times, exiting | ||

Just now I tried to connect to BeSt and got the same error you guys did, but switching to GSCDN instead of Amazon AWS worked fine. I was able to open his stream in any quality after that. VLC+Streamlink has been less consistent lately, with a couple of disconnects and odd stuff happening, but it's still functional. | ||

I can confirm that this little program was super useful to me past few days when restreaming and casting ASL4 Qualifiers. Big shout out to Aylear for letting me know about this and helping me set it all up!~ | ||

Really appreciate you putting this out there for all of us to use ^_^ | ||

This download is the portable windows build, with the afreeca plugin patch already applied. All you have to do is extract it and run the batch file. You will need to have VLC installed too. Install VLC quickly from www.ninite.com | ||

Not sure if you can suppress its output in the batch file... I think I can only turn it off by setting Streamlink to quiet, or turning off error messages entirely. At that point it becomes harder to find out why streams aren't connecting (since it won't tell you if the player is offline or whatever). Edit: Actually I can't even do that. The loglevel option doesn't even work in whatever build this is, it ignores my requests for it to be quiet. | ||

Is that because it's the portable version or has that been added to a nightly? There's no reason to use the nightly in the first place, you know. | ||

Changelog: Made the output messages less ambiguous when launching streams (thanks pheer!) Added players to the .bat file: • Action • goatrope • Sero Added several synonyms to the Korean ASL stream (previously you had to type "aslkor" to find it): • afstar1 • asl • starleague You can grab it here: Starcraft Stream Viewer.bat | ||

More on that in a bit. I haven't added native support for MPC because 1) extra work for me, and 2) some command lines are missing. Most notably --file-caching and --network-caching don't work, but you also can't add a meta title to an MPC window. When VLC pops up, it properly titles the window with the name you input, i.e. Bisu, Stork, Flash. MPC can't do that, so the window title remains something generic like "stdin". Anyway, to use this setup in MPC you need the following: - At least version 1.7 of MPC (1.6 or below will give file not found errors) - Edit the bat file with the following values: Open the .bat file in notepad++ or notepad. Near the top of the file you'll see this line: set vlcpath= ...which by default is blank. Type in the path to your MPC player, i.e. set vlcpath=C:\Program Files\MPC-HC\mpc-hc64.exe Next, scroll down to the bottom of the .bat file and find the following line: start /B streamlink --loglevel=error --player="%vlcpath% --file-caching=5000 --network-caching=5000 --meta-title=%name%" %url%/%id% %output% Change this line to: start /B streamlink --loglevel=error --player="%vlcpath%" %url%/%id% %output% ...which removes the "--file-caching=5000 --network-caching=5000 --meta-title=%name%" bit since MPC can't use those. This worked on my system just fine. Edit: If there is sufficient interest, I can make it so the .bat file accepts MPC by default as an option when you launch it. Let me know if this is something anyone else wants, otherwise I'm sticking with the basic VLC setup. | ||
