VodRecovery

  • Created By: ItIckeYd
  • Initial Release: May 3rd, 2022
  • The script is used to retrieve sub-only and deleted videos/clips from twitch.
  • Credits to daylamtayari - TwitchRecover repository helped with the logic to recover twitch videos.

Script Installation

  1. Install Python
  2. Clone repository
  3. Navigate into cloned directory
  4. Install required packages pip install -r requirements.txt (Run in terminal)
  5. Run Script

Script Notes

  • The script CANNOT recover every single vod. The script can only recover vods that still exist on the twitch vod domains.
  • Due to twitch's deletion process vods are typically only available up to 60 days old. The script will notify you if its older then 60 days.
  • The script uses UTC timezone as default when recovering vods.
  • If using manual recover please ensure to input the seconds value as 00 when running the script as the script brute forces the seconds value automatically.
  • TwitchTracker/StreamsCharts/Sullygnome are the sites that are currently supported by the script.
  • SullyGnome Note: vod retrieval for SullyGnome assumes the year is the current year as there is no year indication on the website when looking at a particlular stream.

Downloading of M3U8 links

  • In order to download an M3U8 choose option 5 in the main menu and input the M3U8 link.
  • The script ONLY downloads the available segments.. if there are invalid segments the vod will skip to the next available segment.
  • The MP4 will be created in your Documents folder. Temp files are automatically removed once download is complete.

Analytical Sites

  • The following sites can be used to provide the information that the script requires:
  1. TwitchTracker.com
  2. Sullygnome.com
  3. Streamscharts.com

Optional IDE

  • Python has a few code editors that can be used which include the following:
  1. PyCharm (Recommended)
  2. Visual Studio Code

Additional Notes

  • If creating an issue for a problem that your experiencing please provide atleast 1 example.
  • If you are not getting results back from the script. Please try vods from other streamers, if the other streamers vods give you results then the original vods you were trying probably just don't exist.
