Twitch VOD Archive and Stream Recorder
Twitch deletes most VODs within 14 days. Partners get 60. After that the VOD is gone, and there's no way to recover it through Twitch's own interface.
StreamRecorder saves Twitch streams automatically. No software to install. Add a creator to your account and every time they go live, the recording starts from the first second – whether your computer is on or not. Recordings are stored in the cloud and available to watch or download whenever you want. Works for full past broadcasts, highlights, and replays.
The two main use cases are viewers who missed a live session and want the full replay, and streamers who want an offline backup before the Twitch retention window closes. Both hit the same problem: Twitch VOD storage limits. StreamRecorder fills that gap.
One practical note on quality. Streams recorded at source quality will produce large files for long sessions – a four-hour broadcast at 6,000 kbps comes out around 10–12 GB. Most users choose 720p or 1080p for a balance of quality and file size.
Twitch is also the only major platform where moments from a stream go viral weeks after the original broadcast. Having the VOD saved means you’re not scrambling when the clip surfaces late. StreamRecorder’s automatic capture is the only route that works consistently on Twitch – the platform doesn’t offer a native viewer download option.
