# Split the video every 30 minutes
$ chaturbate-dvr -u yamiodymel -sd 30
# Split the video every 1024 MB
$ chaturbate-dvr -u yamiodymel -sf 1024
# Change output filename pattern
$ chaturbate-dvr -u yamiodymel -fp video/{{.Username}}/{{.Year}}-{{.Month}}-{{.Day}}_{{.Hour}}-{{.Minute}}-{{.Second}}_{{.Sequence}}※ When runs in Web UI mode, the settings will be default settings for Web UI to create channels.
Fallback indicates what to do when there's no expected target resolution, situation:
Availables: 1080p, 720p, 240p
Resolution: 480p (fallback setted to: up)
Result: 720p will be used
Resolution: 480p (fallback setted to: down)
Result: 240p will be used
The format is based on Go Template Syntax, available variables are:
{{.Username}}, {{.Year}}, {{.Month}}, {{.Day}}, {{.Hour}}, {{.Minute}}, {{.Second}}, {{.Sequence}}
Default it hides the sequence if it's zero.
Pattern: {{.Username}}_{{.Year}}-{{.Month}}-{{.Day}}_{{.Hour}}-{{.Minute}}-{{.Second}}{{if .Sequence}}_{{.Sequence}}{{end}}
Output: yamiodymel_2024-01-02_13-45-00.ts # Sequence won't be shown if it's zero.
Output: yamiodymel_2024-01-02_13-45-00_1.ts
👀 or... The sequence can be shown even if it's zero.
Pattern: {{.Username}}_{{.Year}}-{{.Month}}-{{.Day}}_{{.Hour}}-{{.Minute}}-{{.Second}}_{{.Sequence}}
Output: yamiodymel_2024-01-02_13-45-00_0.ts
Output: yamiodymel_2024-01-02_13-45-00_1.ts
📁 or... Folder per each channel.
Pattern: video/{{.Username}}/{{.Year}}-{{.Month}}-{{.Day}}_{{.Hour}}-{{.Minute}}-{{.Second}}_{{.Sequence}}
Output: video/yamiodymel/2024-01-02_13-45-00_0.ts
※ The file will be saved as .ts format and it's not configurable.
Q: The program closes itself when I just open it on Windows
A: Try to open the program in Command Prompt, the error message should appear, and create a new Issue for it.
Q: Channel is online but the program says it's Offline
A: The program might be blocked by Chaturbate or Cloudflare. If the Channel is in a private/ticket show, the program doesn't support it yet.
Q: listen tcp :8080: bind: An attempt was made to access a socket in a way forbidden by its access permissions.
A: The port 8080 is already in use, change the port with -port option (e.g. -port 8123) and visit http://localhost:8123.
If the error still occur, run Command Prompt as Administrator, and type net stop winnat then net start winnat, and re-run the Chaturbate DVR again.
Q: A connection attempt failed because the connected party did not properly respond after a period of time, or established connection failed because connected host has failed to respond.
A: Your network is unstable or being blocked by Chaturbate, the program can't help with the network issue. Usually happened when you are using VPN or Proxy.
Change -log-level to DEBUG to see more details in terminal, like Duration and Size.
