Support for Python2 has not been dropped yet (contrary to the comment in the last changelog), but will be in the near future.

      Allow to disable twitch reruns (#2722)

A new release with plugin updates and fixes, including Twitch.tv (see #2680), which had to be delayed due to back and forth API changes.

The Twitch.tv workarounds mentioned in #2680 don't have to be applied anymore, but authenticating via --twitch-oauth-token has been disabled, regardless of the origin of the OAuth token (via --twitch-oauth-authenticate or the Twitch website). In order to not introduce breaking changes, both parameters have been kept in this release and the user name will still be logged when using an OAuth token, but receiving item drops or accessing restricted streams is not possible anymore.

Plugins for the following sites have also been added:

• albavision
• news.now.com
• twitcasting.tv
• viu.tv
• vlive.tv
• willax.tv

The celebratory release of Streamlink 1.0.0!

A lot of hard work has gone into getting Streamlink to where it is. Not only is Streamlink used across multiple applications and platforms, but companies as well.

Streamlink started from the inaugural fork of Livestreamer on September 17th, 2016.

Since then, We've hit multiple milestones:

• Over 886 PRs
• Hit 3,000 commits in Streamlink
• Obtaining our first sponsors as well as backers of the project
• The creation of our own logo (#1123)

Thanks to everyone who has contributed to Streamlink (and our backers)! Without you, we wouldn't be where we are today.

Without further ado, here are the changes in release 1.0.0:

• We have a new icon / logo for Streamlink! (#2165)
• Updated dependencies (#2230)
• A ton of plugin updates. Have a look at this search query for all the recent updates.
• You can now provide a custom key URI to override HLS streams (#2139). For example: --hls-segment-key-uri <URI>
• User agents for API communication have been updated (#2194)
• Special synonyms have been added to sort "best" and "worst" streams (#2127). For example: streamlink --stream-sorting-excludes '>=480p' URL best,best-unfiltered
• Process output will no longer show if tty is unavailable (#2090)
• We've removed BountySource in favour of our OpenCollective page. If you have any features you'd like to request, please open up an issue with the request and possibly consider backing us!
• Improved terminal progress display for wide characters (#2032)
• Fixed a bug with dynamic playlists on playback (#2096)
• Fixed makeinstaller.sh (#2098)
• Old Livestreamer deprecations and API references were removed (#1987)
• Dependencies have been updated for Python (#1975)
• Newer and more common User-Agents are now used (#1974)
• DASH stream bitrates now round-up to the nearest 10, 100, 1000, etc. (#1995)
• Updated documentation on issue templates (#1996)
• URL have been added for better processing of HTML tags (#1675)
• Fixed sort and prog issue (#1964)
• Reformatted issue templates (#1966)
• Fixed crashing bug with player-continuous-http option (#2234)
• Make sure all dev dependencies (#2235)
• -r parameter has been replaced for --rtmp-rtmpdump (#2152)

Breaking changes:

• A large number of unmaintained or NSFW plugins have been removed. You can find the PR that implemented that change here: #2003 . See our CONTRIBUTING.md documentation for plugin policy.
