Error launching particular stream

See original GitHub issue

Encountered an error launching a particular stream, does not occur for other streams that I’ve tried. Error message is “The process exited with code 1”.

To add on, I have no issues launching the same stream via CLI (Twitch OAuth token enabled).

Windows 7 Pro streamlink-script.py 0.1.0 Streamlink Twitch GUI 1.0.0 64bit

The bug has been fixed in streamlink/streamlink#300. There will be a new Streamlink release soon which includes this bugfix. You can also try installing Streamlink for the HEAD of the git repository.

I’ll set the minimum required version of Streamlink to 0.2.0 when this gets released, so that this bug doesn’t occur anymore while using the Twitch GUI.
