Long VODs that hop between games deserve real chapters. Paste a Twitch VOD link, and vodfetch reads its category-change markers and lets you export them as a plain timestamped list — free, no account, ready to paste into a YouTube description or video editor.

Twitch tracks every time a broadcast switches game or category during a stream. vodfetch reads those markers directly from the same VOD you're already downloading, and turns them into a clean, timestamped chapter list you can save as a text file — no other free Twitch tool offers this. It's especially useful if you re-upload VODs to YouTube (which supports pasted timestamp chapters), edit highlight reels, or just want a quick outline of a multi-hour stream without scrubbing through it.

## Frequently asked questions

### What are Twitch VOD chapters?

They're the automatic game/category-change markers Twitch records during a broadcast — for example, when a streamer switches from 'Just Chatting' to a game. vodfetch reads these directly from Twitch's own data.

### How do I export chapters from a Twitch VOD?

Paste the VOD's URL into vodfetch and analyze it. If the broadcast has recorded category changes, a Chapters button appears — click it to save a timestamped .txt list.

### Can I use these timestamps as YouTube chapters?

Yes. YouTube auto-converts a timestamp list pasted into a video description (starting at 0:00) into clickable chapters — vodfetch's export is formatted to work directly.

### Why don't all VODs have chapters?

Chapters only exist where Twitch recorded a game/category change. A VOD that stayed in one category the whole stream, or one where the streamer never changed categories, won't have any markers to export.
