- BREAKING: [turned `--player` CLI argument into a player-path-only argument](https://streamlink.github.io/migrations.html#player-path-only-player-cli-argument) ([5305](https://github.com/streamlink/streamlink/issues/5305), [#5310](https://github.com/streamlink/streamlink/pull/5310))

- BREAKING/API: [fixed/changed signatures of `HTTPStream`, `HLSStream` and `HLSStream.parse_variant_playlist()`](https://streamlink.github.io/migrations.html#httpstream-and-hlsstream-signature-changes) ([5429](https://github.com/streamlink/streamlink/pull/5429))
