Right... you are using a very outdated version of the software (v0.0.9 vs 0.2.3), which still uses the v5 endpoint (discontinued as of a few days ago: see #186)

First, uninstall chat-replay-downloader using

pip uninstall chat-replay-downloader

then install chat-downloader using

pip install chat-downloader

You can then use the same commands as before (replacing chat_replay_downloader with chat_downloader. For example,

chat_downloader https://www.twitch.tv/videos/1673754110 > chat.txt

Also, to write text to a file, I would recommend using the -o (output flag for writing to a file instead of >.

For example, the command would become:

chat_downloader https://www.twitch.tv/videos/1673754110 -o chat.txt

This is because windows has errors with outputting unicode characters with > (either omitting, or crashing sometimes).

from chat-downloader.

I changed the default output format (-o chat.txt) so that it matches what is output by > chat.txt. Just test it out and see if it works :)

Otherwise, glad it's working again 👍

from chat-downloader.

I changed the default output format (-o chat.txt) so that it matches what is output by > chat.txt.

I've test it out, and using the -o has errors with outputting unicode characters, like ñ and accented á é í ó ú, but not problems at all with >, it also hides the full chat output on the console, which is something I prefer.

Please supply the full command you ran (including the -v tag).

Thank you very much for the step by step explanation, now it works like a charm :)

Also, to write text to a file, I would recommend using the -o (output flag for writing to a file instead of >.

For example, the command would become:

chat_downloader https://www.twitch.tv/videos/1673754110 -o chat.txt

This is because windows has errors with outputting unicode characters with > (either omitting, or crashing sometimes).

Using the -o flag it output the chat on very wide CSV xml format, but with the > there's not need to use a pre-configured file or anything since its just the time, name of the user and the text, and that for me is perfect,

Cheers.

from chat-downloader.

I've test it out, and using the -o has errors with outputting unicode characters, like ñ and accented á é í ó ú,

Interesting... Could you give an example of a link that has that issue? I'll look into it further.

from chat-downloader.

Sure, check this out: https://www.twitch.tv/videos/1676578762
On the console its ok, but on the output file is where it differs. The following using -o has errors:

0:35 | (Moderator, Verified) Moobot: Anuncios! Si quieres dejar de verlos, suscríbete, tacaño. También puedes aguantar 120 segundos y apoyar el stream <3

and here is the correct, with >:

0:35 | (Moderator, Verified) Moobot: Anuncios! Si quieres dejar de verlos, suscríbete, tacaño. También puedes aguantar 120 segundos y apoyar el stream <3

from chat-downloader.

Running

chat_downloader https://www.twitch.tv/videos/1676578762 --start_time 30 --end_time 40 -o test.txt

outputs the following to the text file (which is correct).

This might be an OS-dependent issue? What OS are you using?

from chat-downloader.

Here is what is happening: chat_downloader saves the output by default in UTF-8, and I use Notepad++ in spanish (and the OS as well), and it opens the chat as an ANSI file, and that's why it shows the errors. If I switch on N++ the file to UTF-8 (without bom), its shown right. Using > saves it in ANSI by default.

Gotcha! 👍

Thanks for the info.
