[Future Support] Twitch is deleting the endpoint that allows for this data collection.

For a myriad of reasons, personal and practical, development of this application has been on hold. One of these includes the long-standing issue that will be finalized later this month:

  • The deprecation of Twitch API v5 and transition to Helix API means that there is no end-point for Twitch chat vods.

Going forward, this means a few things:

  • It is impossible to retrieve chat for a vod unless it is logged during the stream
  • The burden of recording chat will fall on a user
  • Something will need to be created to monitor live streams and store chat in a compatible format

There have also been a great deal of updates to .NET that should let me make this app platform independent. I'm going to set aside some time prior to this change and see what can be improved and prepared such that this is salvageable after the changes.

Is this still the case? App doesn't seem to work, I get a 404 on my vods.
