2016-08-22 | Filip Wierzbicki | Requires Python 2.7 For Linux: When running the installation shell script to install the manifest and the host, don't worry about the sed error, it's perfectly okay. If you are using Chromium or Vivaldi or similar browsers which work with Chrome-Extensions, you have move the manifest and the host file from /home/user/.config/google-chrome/NativeMessagingHosts/ to /home/user/.config/chromium/NativeMessagingHosts/ or another directory which suits your browser. If you have both Python3 and Python2.7 installed, you have to change the environment in the host file. Change #!/usr/bin/env python to #!/usr/bin/env python2.7 The plugin should work then. It's all done in three minutes if you know what you're doing. Restart your browser then. Thanks for your good work, codekiem! Maybe it'd help others if you could publish this on your website. | ||

2016-06-26 | Flaimbot | works very well. the host application is the only nuissance, but i acknowledge that it's a technical necessity. the only thing that's lacking is an option to add your own launch parameters that you have to put into the livestreamer config file (and therefore have no idea whether they're actually applied) that way. | ||
