For those worried about their #twitch highlights, I tried this script: This script scans a folder of Twitch VODs, tests 30 random frames per video for corruption, moves any broken files to a "Failed" folder, logs the results to a .txt file, and sends a notification when done.
@RockLeeSmile@CommanderRoot I'm sorry to hear that, backing up my highlights stressed out my gaming laptop and it had to go in for repair and my office laptop is still backing up the last 100 files. This has been stupidly stressful.
@RockLeeSmile@CommanderRoot If they said you could save 15tb for 20/month, you would keep their memories, people don't have to stress download everything, people won't feel betrayed and thus jump ship - losing more revenue, so they had a long term plan they could have gone with but went short term profits.
@RockLeeSmile@CommanderRoot I said this multiple times but a subscription plan to increase highlight storage would have been the better outcome - 20 a month per person would be pure revenue, especially if a 20tb hdd (roughly 400) is enough for like 90% of the users.
@evandromon@nuttylmao Vods and highlights, until you are under 100hrs.
They said 0.5% reach this number which we know is just a buzzword to make it sound better than it is.
Everything is almost backed up aside from some files may be stuttering or corrupted. Still it's amazing that #twitch didn't offer a subscription plan to back up our highlights, I bought a 20tb hdd for 400, if twitch said $20 a month for 15tb, it would have been a win-win
Just saw there’s a @Twitch Voice Vote thing starting up to request more time to save our VODs, which realistically, many of us really fucking need. Throw in a vote and spread the word if you can - you might just save a VOD-with-chat’s life.
