Livestreamer's path is added to Windows' $PATH but normal CMD won't load, only Power Shell

[HASJ]

What is happening?
I installed Livestreamer with the .exe about two months ago and I was never bothered by not being able to use it through the standard CMD.
It is still working through Power Shell, mind you, but I feel this is a bug, maybe not even LS' fault, and needs reporting.

When trying to run it through the cmd, all I get is livestreamer not found, except it is added to $PATH and powershell finds it, what gives?
Windows 8.1, tried through normal and admin installation, edited the $PATH manually, deleted all lines and added then again, nothing.

Could you please start the application with the --remote-debugging-port=8888 parameter and then open http://localhost:8888 in your browser to see the value of the process.env.PATH variable?

There was a similar issue on OSX lately (#24) where a different $PATH was used when launching the application from specific locations, but I haven't seen this issue on any windows versions yet.
Also, if you're launching the application via cmd and it then tells you that livestreamer wasn't found when trying to watch a stream, then where livestreamer or echo %PATH% should also tell you the same and it's clearly not an issue related to livestreamer-twitch-gui...

Sorry for the unanswered request.

I'm trying to do the --remote-debugging-port=8888 but not success so far.Tried putting it as argument to livestreamer in powershell, "livestreamer --remote-debugging-port=8888", setted it in the livestreamerrc, as argument to VLC (though that wouldn't make much sense IMO).

How do I do that?

"livestreamer --remote-debugging-port=8888"

Are you sure you've opened the issue in the right repository??? I already had a slight feeling, when I read the opening text of this thread, because it was a bit unclear... You're looking for the livestreamer repository and not this one. This here is just a GUI for livestreamer.

Oh shit, I'm so fucking dumb. Sorry dude.
Funnily enough, even the GUI detects livestreamer but Windows doesn't.

hope you're able to resolve your issue...
