The request is for a script that'll make eggdrop give out links to hls streams from twitch.tv/justin.tv
!tw esltv_sc2
or
!tw esltv_sc2 720p
!tw elstv_sc2 1080p
!tw elstv_sc2 source
!tw elstv_sc2 all
Mainly it should respond with the hls stream(s), and of course if nothing is live then it should respond with offline or something.
the reason for using the hls streams is that everyone can use them, you can watch them directly in vlc,mpc etc. thus not having to
defile your computer with adobe flash, and also giving you a lot more options with your video player.
being able to set default stream quality as configuration would be nice, as would being able to set min/max quality shown
and also what should be shown when there are no arguments provided.
Of course giving a bit of info about the stream would be nice as well (name/title/game/etc).
and having the links shortened would be nice as well (tinyurl or similar)
since they are quite long.
things that might help are listed below..
(Twitch: esltv_sc2 -- Polt vs. MaNa - Group C - IEM Cologne (StarCraft II: Heart of the Swarm), 32593 viewers)
^- this is already output from another twitch script (twitch.tcl by manellermus)
Below is a python script which takes streamname as argument and returns the link to the hls stream

This page: http://bog.no-ip.biz/sc2/stream2vlc.php lets a user select quality wanted
and then gives you a stream.
