Have you tried refreshing the stream key on Twitch and re entering it in your streaming program? What do you use anyways? (OBS, Xsplits, etc.)

Oh, you mean the program 'Livestreamer'? I thought you were talking about how you are livestreamer and got this problem.

I have done a bit of Googling and found this:

Everyone is having these issues. Check
https://github.com/chrippa/livestreamer/issues/1456
and https://discuss.dev.twitch.tv/t/client-id-requirement-faqs/6108 .

It should be easy to fix but apparently livestreamer is no longer being developed.
Edit: Just found a fix. I'm using the linux CLI. Edit2. You can skip steps 1-2 and get your access token at http://www.twitchapps.com/tmi/ . Also, if you don't want to type in your access token every time, you can put it in a config file.
Step 1. Type livestreamer --twitch-oauth-authenticate. Chrome will open and ask you to login to twitch. It will give you a "page does not exist" error. FeelsBadMan
Step 2. Check the url. It has a section that says access_token=xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx. Copy this string.
Step 3. Continue watching livestreamer as usual. However, when opening a stream, it should read

livestreamer --twitch-oauth-token xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx twitch.tv/channel best

 

I would recommend you read a bit on all the sources (both the one I gave and the multiple sources in the Reddit link/quote) and do what seems to be the best solution.

Found the Fix. For everyone else that might have Trouble:

 

Step 1. Type livestreamer --twitch-oauth-authenticate. Chrome will open and ask you to login to twitch. It will give you a "page does not exist" error.
be sure not to close this page until after you have made sure the fix works in case you need the token again

Step 2. Check the url. It has a section that says access_token=(string of characters)&Scope. Copy the token contents section between the = and the &.
For example if it is access_token=12345ABCDEabcde&Scope you end up with 12345ABCDEabcde

step 3. go to your appdata folder for livestreamer listed here http://docs.livestreamer.io/cli.html#configuration-file
This should be something like users/(username)/appdata/roaming/livestreamer

step 4. open the livestreamerrc file in notepad and scroll all the way to the bottom.

step 5. on a new line, put:
"twitch-oauth-token=" Without " and #
and paste the string of character after the = with no space between them
example:
twitch-oauth-token=12345ABCDEabcde

step 6. Save the file and try opening a stream as you usually do.
