streamlink: Dailymotion getting timeout errors

Hi I use a direct dailymotion link to restream

It worked only once, then I get this: I also tried others urls of live streams but seems like it’s blocked?

[cli][info] streamlink is running as root! Be careful!
[cli][info] Found matching plugin dailymotion for URL https://www.dailymotion.com/video/x2lefik
error: Unable to open URL: http://www.dailymotion.com/sequence/full/x2lefik (HTTPConnectionPool(host='www.dailymotion.com', port=80): Read timed out. (read timeout=20.0))

Environment details

ubuntu 14.04

Comments, logs, screenshots, etc.

Since it works once, I assume the script is working, I just can’t understand why it won’t work at all after the first time. Is that some kind of security they have implemented?

Having nothing to do with restreaming, I view the live stream at the URL provided (/video/xb68jn) at will and don’t seem to experience the problem you are having.

the debug doesn’t add anything [cli][info] streamlink is running as root! Be careful! [cli][info] Found matching plugin dailymotion for URL https://www.dailymotion.com/video/x3b68jn [plugin.dailymotion][debug] Found media ID: x3b68jn error: Unable to open URL: http://www.dailymotion.com/sequence/full/x3b68jn (HTTPConnectionPool(host=‘www.dailymotion.com’, port=80): Read timed out.
