How to record sub-only VODs on Twitch
Twitch lets Partners and Affiliates restrict past broadcasts to subscribers. The live stream itself stays public; only the archive is locked.
That is the key: capture the broadcast while it is live and you have your own archive.
Method 1: recordcloud.bot (automatic)
- Add the Twitch channel.
- Recording starts when the stream goes live.
- The MP4 lands in your library regardless of the VOD's sub-only setting.

Method 2: Streamlink with an OAuth token
If you are a subscriber, Streamlink can download the sub-only VOD with your own auth token. This is manual and only works while the VOD exists.
Respect the creator
Sub-only archives exist to reward subscribers. Keep your recordings private and consider subscribing to the channels you love.
Preguntas frecuentes
Can recordcloud.bot download an existing sub-only VOD?
No. It records the public live stream instead, which is why you should add the channel before the next stream.
