Streamlink is a CLI utility that pipes flash videos from online streaming services to a variety of video players such as VLC, or alternatively, a browser.
The main purpose of streamlink is to convert CPU-heavy flash plugins to a less CPU-intensive format.
Streamlink is a fork of the Livestreamer project.
