v1.9.0

Streamlink Twitch GUI

Release highlights (v1.9.0)

This release mainly focuses on fixing the recent issues related to the breaking changes of Twitch's API. Since the situation wasn't 100% clear for the first couple of days, we had to wait until we were able to make a proper decision.

For Streamlink Twitch GUI, this means that a couple of features had to be removed, unfortunately. If Twitch decides to make the API endpoints available to third party app developers which were required by the removed features, I will be more than happy to re-implement them.

Support for Livestreamer has also finally been removed. If you were still using Livestreamer, you will have to install and use Streamlink now.
