New Features

Migrate to yt-dlp

Streamlink has been replaced with yt-dlp for downloading videos. Yt-dlp supports Twitch "enhanced broadcasting" which has been a requested feature. This is a drop-in replacement and requires no modifications on your end. If you had any custom streamlink arguments those will not work anymore and you will need to find suitable replacements to use with yt-dlp.

See #782 for details.

1440p / Enchanced Broadcasting Support

Now that Ganymede uses yt-dlp, the "enhanced broadcasting" feature is supported.

Enhanced broadcasting is still in the "beta" stage at Twitch so there are some limitations:

• Twitch region locks 1440p streams
• You must have your Twitch token set in Admin>Settings for this to work, Twitch locks the better quality behind authentication

Some more technical details and concerns with enhanced broadcasting from the above issue:

Enhanced broadcasting (4K/hevc) moves away from mpeg-ts to fragmented MP4 containers as the container in the HLS playlist. This is extremely annoying as fMP4 is super sensitive to disruption, compared to mpeg-ts. Ultimately this means if you archive an enhanced broadcast stream/4K stream without an ad-free stream (subscriber or turbo) it will not play in the browser if an ad is served. The resulting video stream is "corrupted" enough that web players cannot handle it. If you have turbo or a a subscriber with your Twitch token then this is not an issue. This is also not an issue if you use a proxy, though that will not be 4K because of geo restrictions and not being signed in.
I've also found that channels that participate in the enhanced broadcasting only serve fMP4 and not mpeg-ts even for lower resolutions

If you have any ideas to resolve this issue please post to the above issue.

New HTTP Proxy

A standard HTTP proxy type has been added for ad-free Twitch proxies. The previous proxy setting has been renamed to "TwitchHLS".

Playlist Automation Rules

#818

Automation rules can now be added to playlists to automatically add videos to playlists. The rules support basic <key> <operator> <value> logic to compare keys and values for a few video fields.

Playlist rules can be managed per playlist on the "Playlists" page using the new "video automation rules" button.

Example playlist rule to automatically add all "Path of Exile" videos to the playlist.

Current available fields:

• title
• type
• category
• platform
• channel name

Current available operators

• equals
• contains (case insensitive)
• regex

A task runs every hour to process playlist automation rules. The task can be run manually at Admin>Tasks.

Date Storage Template Variables

Added date variables for storage templates in #833
