Streamlink is a CLI utility which pipes video streams from various services into a video player, such as VLC.
This streamlink build adds a --decryption_key parameter to decrypt dash content protected by DRM such as ClearKey 😉
Update 18/03/2023 : Added a --decryption_key_2 parameter to decrypt the second track such as audio tracks. The --decryption_key parameter is required to use this param.
The main purpose of streamlink is to avoid resource-heavy and unoptimized websites, while still allowing the user to enjoy various streamed content.
Streamlink is a fork of the Livestreamer project.
