Livestreamer TLSv1 handshake error when launching streams #667

You are using Livestreamer instead of Streamlink. This is not clear from the logs you've posted, but I know this since you're not the first one reporting this. Livestreamer is dead since several years, hence the Streamlink fork in 2016 and the renaming of the Twitch GUI from Livestreamer Twitch GUI to Streamlink Twitch GUI. Install Streamlink and change the streaming provider in the Twitch GUI's streaming settings menu back to The project's wiki has all the necessary informations regarding installation and configuration: Looks like it's time to finally remove Livestreamer support from the Twitch GUI. |

Did you set any custom settings in the Twitch GUI? The "Unexpected version check output" error message means that the Twitch GUI did not receive a version string from Streamlink when validating its version. This is usually caused when there are Python error message being returned by the child process instead. And that is usually caused when the user has applied invalid settings like for example a wrong Python executable path for running the Streamlink entry script. This shouldn't be a problem at all though if you're a Windows user (which I guess you are) and are using Streamlink's Windows installer, because it is a standalone install with an integrated Python environment and standalone executable (called Since you didn't provide any further useful information, all I can tell you is to reset your configuration and do what is described in the wiki (which is usually not applying any custom settings at all, because the Twitch GUI is usually able to properly resolve Streamlink and use the right configuration out of the box). If the error message keeps popping up, please use the search function on the issue tracker, as there will be enough threads with informations on how to resolve this. This shouldn't be necessary though. And yes, as I've explained it several times in these other threads, I'm aware that the error message is not particularly user-friendly and that it needs to be changed. If everything else fails, please provide the error log from the most recent log file: |

Yes, im windows user, yes, i didnt customize any custom settings, i just downloaded latest version of twitch gui, and yes, i just did streamlink (Windows) in settings. |
You are supposed to download and install the latest Streamlink version, not Streamlink Twitch GUI (you should be using the latest version anyway). Streamlink (command line interface application) is a dependency of Streamlink Twitch GUI (graphical user interface frontend). |

I did, installed both of it.. |

What i need to change, when those settings are simple, and nothing helps me to play streams.. i dont understand what i should even change.. |

I've installed the latest streamlink. And pathed it to streamlinkw.exe, which for me is "C:\Users\Admin\AppData\Local\Streamlink\bin\streamlinkw.exe". And now I get this in the launch popup when launching: "ERROR Suggestions? |

Confirmed that installing "for all users" resolved that error. Hey bastimeyer, if you dont mind me sharing. I came up with a little guide for the technically inept trying to transition from livestreamer. I'm sure there's a whole lot, because I used livestreamer for many years since after the transition period. ** Why aren't my streams launching anymore? Easy Instructions for going from using livestreamer for Twitch GUI to using Streamlink for Twitch GUI!**!
It will be version "1.2.0".
After downloading Streamlink, you will get a little blue file which is your installation file you'll need to install streamlink with. It is not an exe file! It is of no use with Streamlink GUI by itself! STEP BY STEP AFTER DOUBLE CLICKING THE INSTALLATION FILE: Make sure it is set to "install for all users". Make sure to install to the DEFAULT path (dont change the installation path!) Then just let it install, and close out. And with that you're done on the download/installation for streamlink+ S-GUI.
Click Streaming, third tab on the top. Go to streamlink/livestreamer, and select the streamlink (Windows) option from the arrow drop down selection.
It will have "streamlinkw.exe" in grey text. Click it to change it, and copy and paste the following verbatim into that bar: C:\Program Files (x86)\Streamlink\bin\streamlinkw.exe Now go to the bottom of the page, and hit the green save button. You can now launch streams! Note: If this fails you may have a different path to find on your PC to put into the bar. NO PROBLEM! It's always going to be in the installed streamlink folder, and within that folder it will be inside the bin folder and it will be called "streamlinkw.exe". So when you're in that folder, to create your path, just end it with streamlinkw.exe. And then backtracking, put \ for each folder step backwards all the way to C: And whatever that is for you, paste it and it will work!

TY SO MUCH! C:\Program Files (x86)\Streamlink\bin\streamlinkw.exe - this link helps me, coz it was diffrent path! Good luck, bro! |

Glar to hear you both were able to resolve your problems. |

Hello guys |

@exradioactivetoy I will also remove support for Livestreamer from the app once I get the time, as Livestreamer's last Windows-standalone release is non-functional now with the disabling of TLSv1 on Twitch's end. I don't expect anyone on other OSes to be reliant on Livestreamer, since packages of Streamlink exist (almost) everywhere where Livestreamer has been. Btw, the reason why many people were still using Livestreamer while using the Twitch GUI is the existence of 3rd party guides on Youtube and the likes, which are either outdated or have been wrong in the first place by pointing users to Livestreamer instead of Streamlink. As a reminder for people blindly following 3rd party (video) guides (for any kind of software): don't do that and instead follow the official guides/documentation, so you don't have to run into unnecessary issues. I'm going to lock this thread now, as it's all off-topic discussion now and the original issue has already been solved by the first comment. |

Closing the thread now since the removal of livestreamer has been merged in c341133. |
