ytarchive VS aria2

ytarchive is a command-line tool that can monitor a YouTube channel and get the entirety of a stream even if the download starts late. (yt-dlp also supports this with --live-from-start, but it's currently experimental.)

i use ytarchive, it's very reliable.

I use https://github.com/Kethsar/ytarchive for youtube livestream recordings, I find it more reliable than yt-dlp for this use case.

Is there a way I can record Twitch streams from the start even the stream has been running for hours? Something similar to this: https://github.com/Kethsar/ytarchive but for Twitch?

these issues made me switch to a different tool, ytarchive. i've never had an issue with it.

these days i use ytarchive instead for this purpose.

ytarchive is better, easier to work with.

For sites with limited download speeds I usually use aria2 (via terminal) since it supports segmented/multi connection downloading. But I guess this wouldn't work with 1fichier, since with these sites you usually don't get direct link to the file and/or sites like these limit the number of parallel connections. I also used it for torrents for a while, but I wouldn't recommend doing this anymore.

Aria2 Repo

Try a download utility like aria2c it's on GitHub. It's a command line utility but it makes using direct downloads less painful by caching downloads and starting where you leave it off. https://github.com/aria2/aria2 Download it from the releases page

You'll need two pieces of software: yt-dlp and aria2. These are tools that help you download videos from the internet. Once downloaded, place them both in the same folder on your computer.

if you must use DDLs, and I've never had to, use aria2 and use the following

https://github.com/aria2/aria2/releases/tag/release-1.36.0 and run "aria2c.exe -x 16 -s 16 https://pixeldrain.com/api/file/8ppyvrWb?download" in cmd or wait for mirrors

You could try a tool like https://aria2.github.io
