I've been trying to use the Firefox plugin "Open Livestreamer 2.03" to open a Periscope stream in VLC. Every time I play a stream then click the Open Livestreamer button I get the message "Validating URL" then "Livestreamer was unable to parse this url, no plugin found." I have tried using the latest executable installation 1.12.2 and the zipped "latest build" 1.12.2-120. Neither seems to work with the plugin.

In the plugin config I have the:

Path to Livestreamer set to: C:\livestreamer-v1.12.2-120-gab80dbd\livestreamer.exe or the exe install C:\Program Files (x86)\Livestreamer\livestreamer.exe

Optional arguments for livestreamer: --Player=C:\Program Files (x86)\VideoLAN\VLC\VLC.EXE

Using Firefox 47.0.1

Anyone know what I'm doing wrong?
