Any downloader that lets you download subscribe only Twitch VODs without subscribing? (lemmy.world)

it would be great if the downloader isnt command line based and can list all the VODs of the channel at once after typing in the channel username/ link (but not too necessary). TYSM <3

P.S - I don't wanna watch but directly download the VOD (i am aware of the TwitchNoSub extension)

yt-dlp can do that using the --cookies command line argument

Can you link a guide to his to use the cookie command line argument. I'm a noob when it comes to command line stuff. And are you sure this let's you DL without subscribing to the Twitch channel?

I'm sorry, I misread your question. --cookies requires you to be logged in

Why not use TwitchNoSub in combination with Video DownloadHelper?

I always use the download helper to get the Video urls and then download them via yt-dlp

yeah i tried that but it finished downloading a 13 hour stream in like 2 mins and then it does;nt even wanna open, i even tried copying the link and dl with idm, pretty sure idm just dl a m3u8 file with index-dvr something. as for ytdlp, cmd line is too much for me but someone said ytldlp wont work for my requirements (dl sub only vod without subbing)

I used to run a script that recorded the stream while it was live using Streamlink and then i had the vod locally saved. Wont get you access to vods of past streams but the simplest solution for fresh streams.

thanks bro i will try it out coz twitch loves to mute a lot of segments... what is the script you used?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 11 months ago (1 children)

I made it myself, i'll see if i can dig it out. Are you on linux or windows?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 11 months ago
