Admiral H. Curtiss: May 11, 2010; I think there are a bunch of people who can create trailing images. I know some who could do this as if they were just going out for a stroll.

Anything you really want to save forever and ever can be downloaded using this - it gets the flv files for you in super inconvenient 30 minute blocks but it's better than nothing.

For the record, you can combine those to a nice, full video without any skips or reencoding by creating a text file that looks like this:

code:

file 'live_user_username_1369179110.flv'
file 'live_user_username_1369180913.flv'

And then running ffmpeg with:

code:

ffmpeg -f concat -i temp.txt -c copy 	combined.mkv

Regarding saving streams in the future, you should always just record locally. Just check that "Save to File" checkbox in the OBS options and it'll automatically output the same thing it uploads to your HDD.

For downloading you're on your own, but for converting I really recommend doing this:

It's fast and doesn't reencode, so no quality loss.

Twitch says they extended their storage of past broadcasts to 14 days since they got rid of "Save Forever," but I'm seeing stuff get deletion-flagged much sooner than that. It looks like three of my broadcasts in the 6-7 day old range have already been purged (before I got around to exporting them, no less).

No, you misread. The 14 days storage applies to when they'll roll out their new storage system in two weeks or so, right now you're still stuck with the old system and limitations. Highlight or download stuff you want to keep, and set your streaming software to just keep local backups in the first place.

I just noticed my past broadcasts were deleted. Again. No Anime World War 2 is there now, which is a shame because those were fun. Note to all who use twitch: make a highlight from every video, just like a 5 second clip so they can't do that.

Or maybe even that was a lie too, on their blog.

Either you're referring to a different blog entry or completely misread it. The new policies are Past Broadcasts existing for two weeks and then getting deleted, nothing you can do about it. Highlights last forever. Previously, making Highlights prevented deletion of the whole broadcast due to the way it was stored in the background, but their changes "fixed" that.

Really, don't rely on Twitch to store anything. Record locally, OBS has a very nice button for that, and up to Youtube for stuff you want to keep.
