Support for livestreamer as download backend

[nodiscc]

Is it doable to add livestreamer as a download tool?

Livestreamer is a command-line utility that pipes video streams from various services into a video player, such as VLC. The main purpose of Livestreamer is to allow the user to avoid buggy and CPU heavy flash plugins but still be able to enjoy various streamed content.

It supports online services not supported by youtube-dl (+50 sites, including twitch.tv ... ). Related to #17 because the tool is mainly for live streaming.

I don't want to add a different download tool because the youtube-dl-gui as the name suggests it's a GUI wrapper for the youtube-dl.

Anyway, you could open an issue on youtube-dl repo or try to add the support for the new sites on your own. I am currently working only with youtube-dl as a download "library" so for any issues with site support, file formats etc you should refer to their repo. I am closing this issue.
