How do you transcribe a Twitch stream?

To turn a Twitch VOD to text, copy the link to a past broadcast or a clip and paste it above. The first 2 minutes of any VOD or clip are free here, with timestamps. Full streams run for hours, so the rest is in Kalpa, where you can search for the moment something was said.

Why did my Twitch VOD link stop working?

Twitch past broadcasts are deleted after a limited time, while clips stay, so an old VOD link may stop working.

The Twitch transcript covers only the spoken audio of the stream, not the chat.

Can I transcribe subscriber-only VODs?

Subscriber-only Twitch VODs can’t be opened by link, so only public VODs and clips work.
