RechatTool - Capture and Save Twitch Chat Replays



Description:


When you watch a VOD on Twitch, a replay of the live chat is also provided, enabling you to view exactly what has been said by the viewers at specific times during the stream. While there are plenty of applications to download videos, saving chat messages can be a bit more challenging.


RechatTool is a small, open-source program designed to capture entire chat replays and save them locally. Despite lacking a graphical user interface, it is relatively easy to use and can export chat replays to TXT files.


It is important to note that this program requires launching via the command console, and if no parameters are specified, a short list of instructions will be displayed.


Downloading a Twitch chat replay is simple - just grab the VOD's ID from the URL and paste it after the specified command. The program saves chat replays as JSON files, which can be converted to TXT for easier processing.


For very popular channels, saving chat replays could take some time due to the volume of messages. Despite its basic nature, RechatTool efficiently gets the job done, with potential for future GUI enhancements.
