Paste a Twitch channel link while the streamer is live and record the broadcast to MP4 right in your browser — or grab the VOD afterward. No account, no watermark, nothing to install.

vodfetch is a free Twitch stream downloader that captures a live broadcast to an MP4 file as it airs, and also downloads the past-broadcast VOD once the stream ends. Paste the channel URL (twitch.tv/name) while the streamer is live, start recording, and stop whenever you like. There is no account and no software — and if you miss the live window, you can still download the VOD before Twitch deletes it.

## Frequently asked questions

### How do I download a live Twitch stream?

Paste the channel URL (twitch.tv/name) while the streamer is live, click Analyze, and start recording — vodfetch captures the stream to MP4 until it ends or you stop.

### Can I download a Twitch stream after it ends?

Yes — once the stream ends it becomes a VOD; paste the VOD link and download it before Twitch deletes it (after 7 to 60 days).

### Do I need OBS to record a Twitch stream?

No. vodfetch records the stream in your browser without OBS or any software — though OBS is still great for recording your own captures at any settings.

### Is recording a Twitch stream free?

Yes — it is completely free, with no account and no watermark.
