Livestream.com feeds as channels?

Playground Custom Channels
#1

Has anyone found a way to incorporate a Livestream.com feed as a custom channel yet? A lot of our local station newscast replays are available there as well as a lot of free public channels.

For example, here is one: https://livestream.com/accounts/300260/house

I've tried the M3U link that points to, but of course it only works for a limited amount of time.

Wow, I've never realized this exists as a partial alternative to C-SPAN!

You'll want to check out some kind of youtube-dl-based tool to grab the stream address for you, and then set it up as a custom channel. See this thread: Youtube Livestream

I put this in my to-do list :smiley:
