1.6.2

• feat: add [channel] substitution for player args (#46)
• args: print the default user agent when passing --help
• output: continue tcp accept loop if header fails to send
• ci: Add x86-64-v4 & x86-64-v2 target-cpu build targets (#47)

1.6.1

• hls: fix twitch playlist acquisition due to twitch updates

1.6.0

• http: add SOCKS5 support with --socks5 and --socks5-restrict (auth unsupported)
  Also useful for proxying playlist requests to a server in a country that doesn't serve ads.
  For example --socks5 proxy-server:1080 --socks5-restrict gql.twitch.tv,usher.ttvnw.net would proxy only the playlist request and keep the video stream unproxied and fast.

• hls: don't retry on playlist proxy and cache requests

• hls: use head request when checking if cached playlist exists

• constants: bump

1.5.0

• hls: support multivariant url (master playlist) passthrough
  --passthrough now has 3 modes: variant, multivariant and disabled.

• http: retry on any unsuccessful http status code except 404

• build: make optional build features debug-logging and colors required

• constants: bump

1.4.3

• hls: add basic kick platform support (not the focus of the project but useful for ad-free multistreams)
  usage: twitch-hls-client kick:channel best

• tcp: don't spawn thread if only one client

• http: decode into 16kb buffer to reduce writes to 1 syscall

• constants: bump

1.4.2

• fix: select best playlist based on resolution (#43)

1.4.1

• tcp: accept multiple sockets per segment instead of only one
• hls: don't close segment server socket when waiting for outputs
• http: don't parse host in url twice
• playlist: don't info log when resetting playlist
• constants: bump user agent to latest Firefox nightly and bump player_version
• ci: remove readme from release zips
• build: update nix build stuff
• usage: add -t to top usage line (forgot)
• And more code cleanup

1.4.0

• Add -t to output stream over TCP. Supports multiple clients. If there are no clients connected and it is the only output, then segment fetching will be paused until a client connects.

Example:

$ twitch-hls-client -t 127.0.0.1:8080 twitchchannel best 
Fetching playlist for channel twitchchannel
Listening on: 127.0.0.1:8080
Waiting for outputs...
Client accepted: 127.0.0.1:46574

$ mpv tcp://127.0.0.1:8080

• Add --tcp-client-timeout to set write timeout on TCP client sockets
• Add --use-cache-only to exit if playlist cache doesn't contain playlist URL
• Add --write-cache-only to exit after caching playlist URL
• Hide client id and auth token in debug logs
• Avoid a panic by ensuring a socket address was resolved
• Exit gracefully if channel doesn't exist
• Fix handling stream end

1.3.14

• Bump rustls-native-certs to 0.8.*
• Bump user agent and player_version

1.3.13

• Fix hevc/av1 streams
• Strip protocol when parsing channel (#41)
• Cleanup/slightly optimize
• Bump user agent and player_version
