v1.12.0

Streamlink Twitch GUI

Release highlights (v1.12.0)

• Replaced buttons for following and subscribing channels (#813)
  Twitch has decided to shut down the follow-channel API endpoints, which means that 3rd party applications using their public APIs won't be able to follow or unfollow channels anymore. As a workaround, the buttons have been replaced with one that opens the channel page on Twitch.tv in the system's web browser.
  Please see the comment on issue #813 and the commit message of 402cab1 for all the details and how you can help make Twitch restore this feature again via their feedback tracker. Thank you!

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.

• ⚠️ Set Streamlink's version requirement to 1.3.0.
  Upgrade to the latest Streamlink version here or see the wiki.
• Removed everything that was using Twitch's old private API. #684
  • Removed channel panels.
  • Removed subscriptions list.
  • Removed hosted streams list.
  • Removed followed games list and (un)follow game button.
• Removed deprecated Livestreamer support. #667
• Removed login sharing with Streamlink. #682
• Added back automatic theme selection. #666
• Added more fallback paths for VLC and MPV on macOS. #664
• Added media title parameter to MPV player preset. #683
• Upgraded NW.js to 0.42.3 (Chromium 78.0.3904.97 / NodeJS 13.1.0).
• Updated donation links and texts.

v1.8.1

Streamlink Twitch GUI

Release highlights (v1.8.1)

This is a critical bugfix release for the crashing Windows builds since v1.8.0 which downgrades the used NW.js version. See #656 for more information.

If you've already upgraded to v1.8.0, regardless the OS, you may see an NW.js downgrade error message (once) in the future. This can be ignored. Deleting the user-data-dir, which will wipe your settings and login, before upgrading to v1.8.1 and downgrading NW.js is also an option.

If you're coming from v1.7.1, you can ignore all of this.

Once again, I apologize for the inconveniences.

Please see the full changelog of the v1.8.0 release!

• Downgraded NW.js to 0.39.3 (Chromium 75.0.3770.142 / Node 12.6.0).
• Reverted automatic theme selection (dependent on Chromium 76).

v1.8.0

Streamlink Twitch GUI

Notes

Unfortunately, there are some crashing issues with the latest NW.js release on Windows. This did not happen during the development and testing of this release, so in order to prevent more issues for users of Windows who are upgrading to v1.8.0, I will have to move the release to the "pre-release" state, so that people don't get update notifications. Please keep using 1.7.1 in the mean time. Users of macOS and Linux who have already upgraded, eg. via their package manager, should be fine.

I am working on resolving this issue as fast as possible and apologize for the inconveniences.

See issue #656
