 ## Getting started
 
-This script relies on [dl-stream](https://codeberg.org/bashuser30/dl-stream) being in your systems path.
+This script relies on [streamlink](https://streamlink.github.io) being in your systems path.
 You can find all of its requirements on the their project page.
 This script loops through all of the channels in `channel_list.txt` once per minute checking to see if the channel is live via a HTTP request.
-Once a channel is live a [dl-stream](https://codeberg.org/bashuser30/dl-stream) subprocess spawns in the background downloading the stream to it's default location (`$HOME/Videos/dl-stream/<channel_name>`)
+Once a channel is live a [streamlink](https://streamlink.github.io) subprocess spawns in the background downloading the stream to it's default location (`$HOME/Videos/Stream/<channel_name>`)
