          streamlink --hls-live-edge 5 --stream-segment-threads 5 'hls://https://host/playlist.m3u8' best
          streamlink --twitch-low-latency -p mpv -a '--cache=yes --demuxer-max-back-bytes=2G' twitch.tv/CHANNEL best

OPTIONS

   Positional arguments
       URL    A URL to attempt to extract streams from.

              Usually, the protocol of http(s) URLs can be omitted (https://), depending  on  the
              implementation of the plugin being used.

              Alternatively, the URL can also be specified by using the --url option.

       STREAM Stream to play.

              Use best or worst for selecting the highest or lowest available quality.

              Fallback streams can be specified by using a comma-separated list:

                 "720p,480p,best"

              If  no  stream  is  specified  and  --default-stream  is  not  used, then a list of
              available streams will be printed.

   General options
       -h

       --help Show this help message and exit.

       -V

       --version
              Show version number and exit.

       --plugins
              Print a list of all currently installed plugins.

       --plugin-dirs DIRECTORY
              Attempts to load plugins from these directories.

              Multiple directories can be used by separating them with a comma.

       --can-handle-url URL
              Check if Streamlink has a plugin that can handle the specified URL.

              Returns status code 1 for false and 0 for true.

              Useful for external scripting.

       --can-handle-url-no-redirect URL
              Same as --can-handle-url but without following redirects when looking up the URL.

       --config FILENAME
              Load options from this config file.

              Can be repeated to load multiple files, in which case the options are merged on top
              of each other where the last config has highest priority.

       --no-config
              Disable loading any default or custom config files.

       -l LEVEL

       --loglevel LEVEL
              Set the log message threshold.

              Valid levels are, in order of increasing verbosity:

              none, critical, error, warning, info, debug, trace, all

              Default is: "info".

       --logfile FILE
              Append log output to FILE instead of writing to stdout/stderr.

              User prompts and download progress won't be written to FILE.

              A  value  of  -  (dash)  will  set the file name to an ISO8601-like string and will
              choose the following default log directories.

              Windows:

                 %TEMP%\streamlink\logs

              macOS:

                 ${HOME}/Library/Logs/streamlink

              Linux/BSD:

                 ${XDG_STATE_HOME:-${HOME}/.local/state}/streamlink/logs

       -Q

       --quiet
              Hide all log output.

              Alias for --loglevel none.

       -j

       --json Output JSON representations instead of the normal text output.

              Useful for external scripting.

       --auto-version-check {yes,true,1,on,no,false,0,off}
              Unused, kept for compatibility reasons.

              Default is: "no".

       --version-check
              Runs a version check and exits.

       --locale LOCALE
              The preferred locale setting,  for  selecting  the  preferred  subtitle  and  audio
              language.

              The locale is formatted as [language_code]_[country_code], eg. en_US or es_ES.

              Default is: system locale.

       --interface INTERFACE
              Set the network interface.

       -4

       --ipv4 Resolve address names to IPv4 only. This option overrides --ipv6.

       -6

       --ipv6 Resolve address names to IPv6 only. This option overrides --ipv4.

   Player options
       -p PATH

       --player PATH
              The  player  executable that will be launched (unless a different output method was
              chosen).

              Either set an absolute or relative path to the player executable, or just  set  the
              executable's  name  if  it  can  be  resolved  from  the paths of the system's PATH
              environment variable.

              In addition to setting the player executable path, custom player arguments  can  be
              set via --player-args.

              NOTE:
                 In  the  past, --player allowed defining additional player arguments, which as a
                 consequence required wrapping player paths that contained  spaces  in  quotation
                 marks. This is unsupported since release 6.0.0.

              Default is: VLC player, if available.

       -a ARGUMENTS

       --player-args ARGUMENTS
              This  option allows the arguments which are used to launch the player process to be
              customized.

              The value can contain formatting variables surrounded by curly  braces,  {  and  }.
              Curly brace characters can be escaped by doubling, e.g. {{ and }}.

              Available formatting variables:

              {playerinput}
                     This  is the input argument that the player will receive. For standard input
                     (stdin), it is - (dash), but it can also be a file path or URL, depending on
                     the options used.  If unset, then the player input argument will be appended
                     to the parsed player arguments list.

              {playertitleargs}
                     The automatically generated player title arguments, if  a  supported  player
                     was  found.  See --title for more.  If unset, automatically generated player
                     title arguments will be prepended to the parsed player arguments list.

              Example:

                 streamlink -p vlc -a "--play-and-exit --no-one-instance" <url> [stream]

              Default is: "".

       -v

       --verbose-player
              Allow the player to display its console output.

       -n

       --player-fifo

       --fifo Make the player read the stream through a named pipe instead of the stdin pipe.

       --player-http
              Make the player read the stream through HTTP instead of the stdin pipe.

       --player-continuous-http
              Make the player read the stream through HTTP,  but  unlike  --player-http  it  will
              continuously try to open the stream if the player requests it.

              This  makes  it  possible to handle stream disconnects if your player is capable of
              reconnecting to a HTTP stream. This is usually done by setting  your  player  to  a
              "repeat mode".

       --player-external-http
              Serve  stream data through HTTP without running any player. This is useful to allow
              external devices like smartphones or streaming boxes to watch streams they wouldn't
              be able to otherwise.

              The  default  behavior  is  similar  to the --player-continuous-http option, but no
              player program will be started,  and  the  server  will  listen  on  all  available
              connections instead of just in the local (loopback) interface.

              See --player-external-http-interface for choosing a specific network interface, and
              see --player-external-http-port for choosing a non-randomized port.

              Optionally, the --player-external-http-continuous option allows for  disabling  the
              continuous run-mode, so that Streamlink will stop when the stream ends.

              The  URLs that can be used to access the stream will be printed to the console, and
              the server can be interrupted using CTRL-C.

       --player-external-http-continuous {yes,true,1,on,no,false,0,off}
              Set the run-mode of --player-external-http to continuous or non-continuous.

              In the continuous run-mode, Streamlink will keep running after the stream has ended
              and  will  wait  for  the next HTTP request being made unless it gets shut down via
              CTRL-C.

              If set to non-continuous, Streamlink will stop once the stream has ended.

              Default is: true.

       --player-external-http-interface INTERFACE
              The network interface on which the HTTP server will be listening on.  If  unset  or
              set to 0.0.0.0, all available interfaces will be bound.

       --player-external-http-port PORT
              A  fixed  port to use for the external HTTP server if that mode is enabled. Omit or
              set to 0 to use a random high ( >1024) port.

       --player-passthrough TYPES
              A comma-delimited list of stream types to pass to the player as a  URL  to  let  it
              handle the transport of the stream instead.

              Stream types that can be converted into a playable URL are:

              • hls

              • http

              Make sure your player can handle the stream type when using this.

       --player-no-close
              By  default Streamlink will close the player when the stream ends. This is to avoid
              "dead" GUI players lingering after a stream ends.

              It does however have the side-effect of sometimes closing a player  before  it  has
              played back all of its cached data.

              This option will instead let the player decide when to exit.

       -t TITLE

       --title TITLE
              Change the title of the video player's window.

              Please  see  the "Metadata variables" section of Streamlink's CLI documentation for
              all available metadata variables.

              This option is only supported for the following players: mpv, potplayer, vlc

              VLC specific information:
                     VLC   does   support   special   formatting   variables    on    its    own:
                     https://wiki.videolan.org/Documentation:Format_String/

                     These  variables  are accessible in the --title option by adding a backslash
                     in front of the dollar sign which VLC uses as its formatting character.

                     For example, to put the current date in your VLC window  title,  the  string
                     \$A could be inserted inside the --title string.

              Example:

                 streamlink -p mpv --title "{author} - {category} - {title}" <URL> [STREAM]

   File output options
       -o FILENAME

       --output FILENAME
              Write  stream  data  to  FILENAME  instead  of  playing it. If FILENAME is set to -
              (dash), then the stream data will be written to stdout,  similar  to  the  --stdout
              argument.

              Non-existent  directories  and subdirectories will be created if they do not exist,
              if filesystem permissions allow.

              You will be prompted if the file already exists.

              Please see the "Metadata variables" section of Streamlink's CLI  documentation  for
              all available metadata variables.

              Unsupported   characters   in  substituted  variables  will  be  replaced  with  an
              underscore.

              Example:

                 streamlink --output "~/recordings/{author}/{category}/{id}-{time:%Y%m%d%H%M%S}.ts" <URL> [STREAM]

       -O

       --stdout
              Write stream data to stdout instead of playing it.

       -r FILENAME

       --record FILENAME
              Open the stream in the player, while at the same time writing it  to  FILENAME.  If
              FILENAME  is  set  to  -  (dash),  then  the stream data will be written to stdout,
              similar to the --stdout argument, while still opening the player.

              Non-existent directories and subdirectories will be created if they do  not  exist,
              if filesystem permissions allow.

              You will be prompted if the file already exists.

              Please  see  the "Metadata variables" section of Streamlink's CLI documentation for
              all available metadata variables.

              Unsupported  characters  in  substituted  variables  will  be  replaced   with   an
              underscore.

              Example:

                 streamlink --record "~/recordings/{author}/{category}/{id}-{time:%Y%m%d%H%M%S}.ts" <URL> [STREAM]

       -R FILENAME

       --record-and-pipe FILENAME
              Write stream data to stdout, while at the same time writing it to FILENAME.

              Non-existent  directories  and subdirectories will be created if they do not exist,
              if filesystem permissions allow.

              You will be prompted if the file already exists.

              Please see the "Metadata variables" section of Streamlink's CLI  documentation  for
              all available metadata variables.

              Unsupported   characters   in  substituted  variables  will  be  replaced  with  an
              underscore.

              Example:

                 streamlink --record-and-pipe "~/recordings/{author}/{category}/{id}-{time:%Y%m%d%H%M%S}.ts" <URL> [STREAM]

       --fs-safe-rules
              The  rules  used  to  make  formatting   variables   filesystem-safe   are   chosen
              automatically  according to the type of system in use. This overrides the automatic
              detection.

              Intended for use when Streamlink is running  on  a  UNIX-like  OS  but  writing  to
              Windows filesystems such as NTFS; USB devices using VFAT or exFAT; CIFS shares that
              are enforcing Windows filename limitations, etc.

              These characters are replaced with an underscore for the rules in use:

              • POSIX: \x00-\x1F /

              • Windows: \x00-\x1F \x7F " * / : < > ? \ |

       -f

       --force
              When using --output or --record, always write to file even  if  it  already  exists
              (overwrite).

       --progress {yes,force,no}
              When  using  --output or --record, show or hide the download progress bar, or force
              it if there's no terminal.

              Default is: yes.

       --force-progress
              Deprecated in favor of --progress=force.

   Stream options
       --url URL
              A URL to attempt to extract streams from.

              Usually, the protocol of http(s) URLs can be omitted (https://), depending  on  the
              implementation of the plugin being used.

              This  is  an  alternative to setting the URL using a positional argument and can be
              useful if set in a config file.

       --default-stream STREAM
              Stream to play.

              Use best or worst for selecting the highest or lowest available quality.

              Fallback streams can be specified by using a comma-separated list:

                 "720p,480p,best"

              This is an alternative to setting the stream using a positional argument and can be
              useful if set in a config file.

       --stream-url
              If possible, translate the resolved stream to a URL and print it.

       --retry-streams DELAY
              Retry  fetching the list of available streams until streams are found while waiting
              DELAY second(s) between each attempt. If unset, only one attempt will  be  made  to
              fetch the list of streams available.

              The number of fetch retry attempts can be capped with --retry-max.

       --retry-max COUNT
              When  using  --retry-streams, stop retrying the fetch after COUNT retry attempt(s).
              Fetch will retry infinitely if COUNT is zero or unset.

              If --retry-max is set without setting --retry-streams, the  delay  between  retries
              will default to 1 second.

       --retry-open ATTEMPTS
              After a successful fetch, try ATTEMPTS time(s) to open the stream until giving up.

              Default is: 1.

       --stream-types TYPES

       --stream-priority TYPES
              A comma-delimited list of stream types to allow.

              The order will be used to separate streams when there are multiple streams with the
              same name but different stream types. Any stream type not listed  will  be  omitted
              from  the  available  streams  list.   An * (asterisk) can be used as a wildcard to
              match any other type of stream, eg. muxed-stream.

              Default is: "hls,http,*".

       --stream-sorting-excludes STREAMS
              Fine tune the best and worst stream name synonyms by excluding unwanted streams.

              If all  of  the  available  streams  get  excluded,  best  and  worst  will  become
              inaccessible  and  new special stream synonyms best-unfiltered and worst-unfiltered
              can be used as a fallback selection method.

              Uses a filter expression in the format:

                 [operator]<value>

              Valid operators are >, >=, < and <=. If no operator is specified then  equality  is
              tested.

              For example this will exclude streams ranked higher than "480p":

                 --stream-sorting-excludes ">480p"

              Multiple filters can be used by separating each expression with a comma.

              For example this will exclude streams from two quality types:

                 --stream-sorting-excludes ">480p,>medium"

   Stream transport options
       --ringbuffer-size SIZE
              The  maximum  size of the ringbuffer. Mega- or kilobytes can be specified via the M
              or K suffix respectively.

              The ringbuffer is used as a temporary storage between the stream  and  the  player.
              This  allows  Streamlink  to download the stream faster than the player which reads
              the data from the ringbuffer.

              The smaller the size of the  ringbuffer,  the  higher  the  chance  of  the  player
              buffering  if  the download speed decreases, and the higher the size, the more data
              can be use as a storage to recover from volatile download speeds.

              Most players have their own additional cache and will read the ringbuffer's content
              as  soon  as data is available.  If the player stops reading data while playback is
              paused, Streamlink will continue to download the stream in the background  as  long
              as the ringbuffer doesn't get full.

              Default is: "16M".

              NOTE:
                 A  smaller  size is recommended on lower end systems (such as Raspberry Pi) when
                 playing stream types that require some extra  processing  to  avoid  unnecessary
                 background processing.

       --stream-segment-attempts ATTEMPTS
              How many attempts should be done to download each segment before giving up.

              etc.

              Default is: 3.

       --stream-segment-threads THREADS
              The size of the thread pool used to download  segments.  Minimum  value  is  1  and
              maximum is 10.

              This  applies  to all different kinds of segmented stream types, such as DASH, HLS,
              etc.

              Default is: 1.

       --stream-segment-timeout TIMEOUT
              Segment connect and read timeout.

              This applies to all different kinds of segmented stream types, such as  DASH,  HLS,
              etc.

              Default is: 10.0.

       --stream-timeout TIMEOUT

       --mux-subtitles
              Automatically mux available subtitles into the output stream.

              Needs to be supported by the used plugin.

   HLS options
       --hls-live-edge SEGMENTS
              Number of segments from the live stream's current live position to begin streaming.
              The size or length of each segment is determined by the streaming provider.

              Lower values will decrease the latency,  but  will  also  increase  the  chance  of
              buffering,  as  there  is  less  time for Streamlink to download segments and write
              their data to the output buffer. The number of parallel segment  downloads  can  be
              set  with  --stream-segment-threads  and  the HLS playlist reload time to fetch and
              queue new segments can be overridden with --hls-playlist-reload-time.

              Default is: 3.

              NOTE:
                 During live playback, the caching/buffering settings of the used player will add
                 additional   latency.   To  adjust  this,  please  refer  to  the  player's  own
                 documentation for the required configuration. Player parameters can be  set  via
                 --player-args.

       --hls-segment-stream-data
              Immediately write segment data into output buffer while downloading.

       --hls-playlist-reload-attempts ATTEMPTS
              Max number of attempts when reloading the HLS playlist before giving up.

              Default is: 3.

       --hls-playlist-reload-time TIME
              Set  a  custom HLS playlist reload time value, either in seconds or by using one of
              the following keywords:

              • segment: The duration of the last segment in the current playlist

              • live-edge: The sum of segment durations of the live edge value minus one

              • default: The playlist's target duration metadata

              Default is: default.

       --hls-segment-ignore-names NAMES
              A comma-delimited list of segment names that will get filtered out.

              Example: --hls-segment-ignore-names 000,001,002

              This will ignore every segment that ends with 000.ts, 001.ts and 002.ts

              Default is: None.

       --hls-segment-key-uri URI
              Override the segment encryption key URIs for encrypted streams.

              The value can be templated using the following variables, which  will  be  replaced
              with their respective part from the source segment URI:

                 {url} {scheme} {netloc} {path} {query}

              Examples:

                 --hls-segment-key-uri "https://example.com/hls/encryption_key"
                 --hls-segment-key-uri "{scheme}://1.2.3.4{path}{query}"
                 --hls-segment-key-uri "{scheme}://{netloc}/custom/path/to/key"

              Default is: None.

       --hls-audio-select CODE
              Selects a specific audio source or sources, by language code or name, when multiple
              audio sources are available. Can be * (asterisk) to download all audio sources.

              NOTE:
                 This is only useful in special circumstances where  the  regular  locale  option
                 fails, such as when multiple sources of the same language exists.

       --hls-start-offset [HH:]MM:SS
              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).

              Default is: 00:00:00.

       --hls-duration [HH:]MM:SS
              Limit the playback duration, useful for watching segments of a stream.  The  actual
              duration may be slightly longer, as it is rounded to the nearest HLS segment.

              Default is: unlimited.

       --hls-live-restart
              Skip to the beginning of a live stream, or as far back as possible.

              Example: --ffmpeg-fout "mpegts"

       --ffmpeg-video-transcode CODEC
              When muxing streams, transcode the video to CODEC.

              Default is: "copy".

              Example: --ffmpeg-video-transcode "h264"

       --ffmpeg-audio-transcode CODEC
              When muxing streams, transcode the audio to CODEC.

              Enable or disable support for Streamlink's webbrowser API.

              Streamlink's  webbrowser  API  allows  plugins  which  implement it to launch a web
              browser and extract data from websites which they otherwise  couldn't  do  via  the
              regular HTTP session in Python due to specific JavaScript restrictions.

              The  web  browser  is  run  isolated  and  in a clean environment without access to
              regular user data.

              Streamlink currently only supports Chromium-based web  browsers  using  the  Chrome
              Devtools  Protocol  (CDP).  This includes Chromium itself, Google Chrome, Microsoft
              Edge, Brave, Vivaldi, and others, but full support for third party  Chromium  forks
              is  not  guaranteed.  If  you  encounter  any issues, please try Chromium or Google
              Chrome instead.

              Default is: true.

              Path to the web browser's executable.

              By default, it is looked up automatically  according  to  the  rules  of  the  used
              webbrowser  API  implementation.   This usually involves a list of known executable
              names and fallback paths on all supported operating systems.

       --webbrowser-timeout TIME
              The maximum amount of time which the web browser can take to launch and execute.

       --webbrowser-cdp-host HOST
              Host for the web browser's inter-process communication interface (CDP specific).

              Default is: 127.0.0.1.

       --webbrowser-cdp-port PORT
              Port for the web browser's inter-process communication interface (CDP specific).

              Tries to find a free port by default.

       --webbrowser-cdp-timeout TIME
              The maximum amount of time for waiting on a single CDP command response.

       --webbrowser-headless {yes,true,1,on,no,false,0,off}
              Whether to launch the web browser in headless mode or not.  When enabled, it  stays
              completely hidden and doesn't require a desktop environment to run.

              Default is: true.

   Twitch
       --twitch-disable-ads
              Skip  embedded  advertisement  segments  at the beginning or during a stream.  Will
              cause these segments to be missing from the output.

       --twitch-disable-reruns
              Do not open the stream if the target channel is currently broadcasting a rerun.

       --twitch-low-latency
              Enables   low   latency   streaming   by   prefetching    HLS    segments.     Sets
              --hls-segment-stream-data  to  true  and  --hls-live-edge  to  2,  if it is higher.
              Reducing --hls-live-edge to 1 will result in the lowest latency possible, but  will
              most likely cause buffering.

              In  order  to  achieve  true  low  latency  streaming during playback, the player's
              caching/buffering settings will need to be adjusted and reduced to a value  as  low
              as possible, but still high enough to not cause any buffering.  This depends on the
              stream's bitrate and the quality of the  connection  to  Twitch's  servers.  Please
              refer  to  the  player's  own  documentation for the required configuration. Player
              parameters can be set via --player-args.

              NOTE:
                 Low latency streams have to be enabled by the broadcasters on Twitch themselves.
                 Regular  streams  can cause buffering issues with this option enabled due to the
                 reduced --hls-live-edge value.

       --twitch-api-header KEY=VALUE
              A header to add to each Twitch API HTTP request.

              Can be repeated to add multiple headers.

              Useful for adding authentication data that can prevent ads. See the plugin-specific
              documentation for more information.

       --twitch-access-token-param KEY=VALUE
              A parameter to add to the API request for acquiring the streaming access token.

              Can be repeated to add multiple parameters.
