Common questions
How do I download a Twitch clip in 1080p60?
Paste the Twitch clip link into SMDownloader. The extractor retrieves direct progressive MP4 streams up to 1080p60 with synchronized audio.
Can I download full past broadcast VODs?
Yes. Twitch VODs (twitch.tv/videos/...) are supported and extracted across multiple HLS master quality variants or audio-only.
Are subscriber-only Twitch VODs supported?
No. VODs restricted to paid channel subscribers require an authenticated account and cannot be downloaded anonymously.
Can I download active livestreams?
No. You must wait for the broadcast to finish so Twitch generates the past broadcast VOD archive.
