	"client_secret": "vek7nwmh53klnrtj7zpizj53q99f56"
}

3: Get CODE to create TOKEN

#!/usr/bin/env python3
# -*- coding: utf-8 -*

from src.TwitchFfmpeg import TwitchFfmpeg

tf = TwitchFfmpeg('/home/projects/twitch-ffmpeg/config')
tf.Api.setTokenFromCode()

4: Set CHANNEL information

4.1: Set Channel name:

Your nick from twitch, for example: sithtal https://twitch.tv/sithtal

4.2: get Channel KEY:

Go to: https://dashboard.twitch.tv/u/{your_channel}/settings/stream for example: https://dashboard.twitch.tv/u/sithtal/settings/stream

COPY Primary Stream key

4.3: Get STREAM URL:

4.4: Set All information together:

Open twitch_channel.json and replace values, for example:

{
	"channel":	"sithtal",
	"key":		"live_123456789_ABCDEFGHGIJKLMNOPQRS1aBCdEFGH2i",
	"server":	"rtmp://mad01.contribute.live-video.net/app/"
}

4: Refresh TOKEN

The TOKEN expires, to refresh token create a cron to refresh it

#!/usr/bin/env python3
# -*- coding: utf-8 -*

from src.TwitchFfmpeg import TwitchFfmpeg

tf = TwitchFfmpeg('/home/projects/twitch-ffmpeg/config')
tf.Api.refreshToken()

5: Change Stream title

#!/usr/bin/env python3
# -*- coding: utf-8 -*

from src.TwitchFfmpeg import TwitchFfmpeg

tf = TwitchFfmpeg('/home/projects/twitch-ffmpeg/config')
tf.Api.setStreamTitle('THIS IS A TEST')

5: Stream Video

#!/usr/bin/env python3
# -*- coding: utf-8 -*

from src.TwitchFfmpeg import TwitchFfmpeg

tf = TwitchFfmpeg('/home/projects/twitch-ffmpeg/config')
tf.Api.setStreamTitle('Dragoi Bola 18')
tf.streamFile('/home/zital/Bideoak/dragoi_bola/db/018.mp4')

5: Stream Video List

#!/usr/bin/env python3
# -*- coding: utf-8 -*

from src.TwitchFfmpeg import TwitchFfmpeg

tf = TwitchFfmpeg('/home/projects/twitch-ffmpeg/config')
tf.Api.setStreamTitle('Dragoi Bola 1,2,3,4,5 atalak')
tf.streamVideoList('/home/zital/scripts/bash/twitch/db.list')

db.list

file '/home/zital/Bideoak/dragoi_bola/db/001.mp4'
file '/home/zital/Bideoak/dragoi_bola/db/002.mp4'
file '/home/zital/Bideoak/dragoi_bola/db/003.mp4'
file '/home/zital/Bideoak/dragoi_bola/db/004.mp4'
file '/home/zital/Bideoak/dragoi_bola/db/005.mp4'

6: Custom Streams

It's a possibility to make and custom filter for ffmpeg creating a file with ffmpeg custom arguments, for example: twitch_ffmpeg_custom.json

[
    "/usr/bin/ffmpeg ",
    "-safe 0 ",    
    "-re ",
    "-i $1 ",
	"-r hd720 ",
	"-r 60 ",
    "-f flv "
]

IMPORTANT Add space after each argument

Code example:

#!/usr/bin/env python3
# -*- coding: utf-8 -*

from src.TwitchFfmpeg import TwitchFfmpeg

tf = TwitchFfmpeg('/home/projects/twitch-ffmpeg/config')
tf.Api.setStreamTitle('CUSTOM')
tf.stream('/home/zital/scripts/bash/twitch/db.list', 'custom')

FFMPEG required arguments

-re: real time output -f flv: flv as output container

TWITCH OPTIMAL ARGUMEHTS

FPS: 30/60 FPS RESOLUTION: 1280x720 or 1980x1080

STREAM OPTIMAL

To stream optimally is required to encode before as desired params, otherwise the CPU will be working harder.

Example, the video is 1080/60 and we are going to encode at 720/30, first:

ffmpeg -i input.mp4 -s hd720 -r 30 output.mp4
