According to livestreamer manpage, options must come first:
COMMAND-LINE USAGE
$ livestreamer [OPTIONS] [URL] [STREAM]
These will show you streams you can choose from:
$ livestreamer [URL]
or
$ livestreamer [OPTIONS] [URL]
This will save the best quality available stream to file arq.mp4 in the current dir:
livestreamer -o arq.mp4 <livestream-url> best
Check
$ man livestreamer
for many more details.
