This removes the following deprecated/suppressed CLI arguments:

  • --http-cookies
    Multiple --http-cookie arguments need to be used
  • --http-headers
    Multiple --http-header arguments need to be used
  • --http-query-params
    Multiple --http-query-param arguments need to be used
  • --no-version-check
    Version checking is opt-in via --version-check or --auto-version-check
  • --twitch-oauth-authenticate
    Auth on Twitch is not possible with OAuth tokens generated by 3rd-party client-IDs like Streamlink's

And the following deprecated/suppressed plugin arguments:

  • --btv-username / --btv-password
  • --crunchyroll-locale
    Generic --locale argument needs to be used
  • --pixiv-username / --pixiv-password
  • --twitch-oauth-token / --twitch-cookie
    As a workaround, --http-header="Authorization=OAuth oauth-token-from-twitch-website" can be used
  • --ustvnow-station-code
  • --youtube-api-key

There's also the issue with the various mux-subtitles plugin arguments and merging them all into one global argument. Ideally, this should be done in the 2.0.0 release due to the major version bump, but it's optional.

It really seems like the preferable way to go while breaking changes are already being made, otherwise I guess Streamlink will be stuck with the current implementation until release 3.0.0.

@bastimeyer how would you merge those mux subtitles options?

By adding one global --mux-subtitles boolean parameter and removing the individual plugin parameters from

  • funimationnow
  • pluzz
  • rtve
  • svtplay
  • vimeo

and making the plugins read the global parameter value instead. Looks like a simple change to be honest.

Yeah, my only concern is that users might assume a plugin supports mux-subtitles where it does not.

An info log message could be added to each of the supported plugins. Maybe even as a decorator, to unify the log message.

@bastimeyer I created #3282 to continue the discussion.
