A small program for downloading livestreams and videos.
In order to use Stream Downloader, you must have Python installed.
You can download an installer from the Python website (you need to install version 3 or above). Make sure to add Python to your path if the installer asks you to. Otherwise you may need to do this manually.
If your distribution doesn't come with Python 3, you should be able to install it using your package manager. For example, on Ubuntu, this is done by typing the following at the command line:
sudo apt-get install python3
You might also need to install the python3-tk package:
sudo apt-get install python3-tk
Note that you will most likely need to replace the python
and pip
commands
with python3
and pip3
.
Once Python is installed and in your path, you need to install livestreamer. This is done by opening the command line and typing:
pip install livestreamer
Windows: You can open the command line by pressing the Windows key
and the R
key at the same time, typing cmd
in the window that pops up and
clicking on the OK button or pressing enter.
In order to use Stream Downloader, just clone this repository or download it and decompress it in a directory of your choice.
To launch Stream Downloader, just open the file main.py
with Python. You can
also run it on the command line by typing:
cd "path/to/the/stream/downloader/directory"
python main.py
