Try to use source_http instead of hls for douyu.com, the http stream doesn't have such a problem. For convenience, add source_http to the beginning of your default-stream in configure file. Make it like this

default-stream=source_http,http,hls,best

@eleeeeeee Please try to use the source_http stream instead of hls. The hls stream expires after 1 hour. Just add source_http before other stream options for default-stream in your .streamlinkrc file to make it easy to use. Or try to run from terminal like

streamlink https://www.douyu.com/nado source_http -p mpv
