Away streams only

[eithrial]

For example streamglob download://mlb/2019-06-17.tor pick away stream instead of the home one.

You might want to check out mlbv, it has this feature and was recently updated for 2019 compatibility. See the readme, section 5:

https://github.com/VirtualParticle/mlbv

mlbv --team tor --feed away # choose the away feed (assuming Toronto is the home team, you will get the opposing team's feed)

For example streamglob download://mlb/2019-06-17.tor pick away stream instead of the home one.

I can't reproduce this. Are you using the latest git master?

I think this is a feature request. As in, they want the ability to select their favorite team's game, but get the opponent's broadcast, even if they don't know who the opponent is.

Ah! In that case, this should already be supported by updating config.yaml with the following settings:

profiles:
    default:
        providers:
            mlb:
                teams:
                    overrides:
                        - TOR:
                            feed_type: remote   # or "local"

There's no reliable way to do override the feed type from the command-line right now, but I'll fix that shortly.

As of @9706f5c, setting preferred stream should work either in the config file (by specifying remote/local for each team) or via the command-line (by adding feed_type:away to the command), e.g.:

streamglob download://mlb/2019-06-17.tor:feed_type=away

[eithrial]

I use the latest version. Both commands:
streamglob download://mlb/2019-06-17.tor
streamglob download://mlb/2019-06-17.laa
pick the same stream (Angels' stream)

Also
streamglob download://mlb/2019-06-23.hou
streamglob download://mlb/2019-06-23.nyy
gives always Astros' stream.

Installing everything from the beginning doesn't change that behaviour.

Whoops, maybe it was a bug report. Sorry! :)

Just wondering if this is being addressed. Like eithrial above, on certain games, I can only get the visiting-team's stream.

Otherwise, great work everyone !!
