[question] - Downloading the Twitch VOD

[Geczy]

1. its while im streaming, it auto streams to youtube?
2. or when im done stream, it presses the export to youtube button for me from twitch video manager?

im looking for solution to the 2nd option

The standard YouTube direct upload option:

• Starts when you start streaming on twitch, downloads it in realtime and uploads the video to youtube as a normal YouTube video. it does not download the official VOD from Twitch.

The resStream option:

• Re-stream your stream to YouTube, kinda like https://restream.io/

Edit: I have updated the README to clarify this

wouldn't it be more efficient to just POST the vod export api request twitch has? twitch already has built in twitch to youtube upload, with zero effort on our part

1. I can't seem to find anything in the docs, i only found this: https://twitch.uservoice.com/forums/310213-developers/suggestions/45464665-allow-export-to-youtube-from-twitch-api , So the only way to achieve this is manually via the GUI(?) after each stream.
2. This project was started because I wanted to watch some old vods from a particular streamer, and websites like https://twitcharchives.com/ didn't archive that streamer, so I decided to make my own.
3. AutoVOD offers more:
   1. Upload to other providers then just youtube (e.g S3 bucket, Dropbox, Google Drive, etc)
   2. Split vod into multiple parts
   3. Upload vods from multiple streamers

Apologies to bump an old issue but since the creator's question kind of resembles mine I thought it'd be best to ask here instead of making a new issue. Is it possible for autovod to either pipe a sound channel when the streamer has audio splitting enabled or for autovod to initiate uploading the finished vod when it detects the stream has been completed?

For instance, I use this tool to upload archives of a streamer. They play music via Spotify and since autovod uploads in real time the music is also enabled in the youtube video. This has caused a multitude of vods to be copyright muted and not viewable for the public.

If not I completely understand!

I don't think that is possible, it has already been discussed on Streamlink.

But would have loved to have this feature
