Livestreamer is a Command Line Interface that pipes video streams from
various services into a video player, such as VLC. The main purpose of
Livestreamer is to allow the user to avoid buggy and CPU heavy flash plugins
but still be able to enjoy various streamed content.

There is also an API available for developers who want access to the video
stream data.
