Whether you're archiving your favorite moments, catching streams you missed, or keeping a rolling record of live broadcasts, Battles Replay gives you complete control over your streaming experience. 🎬 VOD DOWNLOADS Download any VOD in your preferred quality and format: Quality Selection - Choose from Source quality down to 160p, or audio-only for podcasts and music streams Multiple Formats - Save as MP4, MKV, or TS (Transport Stream) depending on your needs Custom Time Ranges - Don't need the whole VOD?

Many streamers don't publish their VODs immediately (or at all), but the video data often still exists on Twitch's servers. Battles Replay cross-references stream history data to discover these hidden broadcasts. When you search for a channel, you'll see both published VODs and any unpublished streams that can be recovered. Unpublished VODs are clearly marked with a badge so you always know what you're looking at. This is perfect for: Catching streams you missed before they disappear Archiving content from streamers who don't save VODs Finding deleted streams that are still accessible Recovering your own unpublished broadcasts 📺 LIVE STREAM RECORDING Record live streams with a smart rolling buffer system: Rolling Buffer - Keep the last 10 minutes to 5 hours of any live stream continuously recorded Buffer Visualization - Visual ring indicator shows your recording progress and how much buffer space is used Create Clips - Make clips up to 30 minutes long from your buffer with precise start/end selection Save Entire Buffer - One click to save everything you've captured Stream End Detection - When a stream goes offline, you'll be prompted to save or discard your buffer Auto-Save Option - Configure the extension to automatically save your buffer when streams end Quality Selection - Record in any available quality, from Source down to audio-only The buffer is stored efficiently in memory while you watch, and only written to disk when you choose to save. 💬 CHAT REPLAY Watch VODs the way they were meant to be experienced - with chat: Synchronized Playback - Chat messages appear in perfect sync with the video, just like watching live Pre-fetching - Messages are loaded ahead of time for smooth, uninterrupted playback Full Emote Support - See channel emotes, global emotes, subscriber emotes, and third-party emotes rendered as images Badge Display - Moderator, VIP, subscriber, and other badges displayed alongside usernames Floating Overlay - Draggable, resizable chat window that stays visible even in fullscreen Customization - Toggle timestamps and badges, adjust font size, change background color and opacity, set maximum message count, and enable "fade when idle" mode 🗨️ LIVE CHAT INTEGRATION Connect your account for the full live chat experience: Send Messages - Type and send chat messages directly through the extension Emote Picker - Browse and insert channel emotes, global emotes, and your subscriber emotes with a searchable picker @Mention Autocomplete - Type @ to get username suggestions from recent chat participants Chat Mode Indicators - See when chat is in emote-only, follower-only, subscriber-only, or slow mode Follow Button - Quickly follow channels to participate in follower-only chat Reply Indicators - See when messages are replies to other users 📥 DOWNLOAD MANAGER A full-featured download queue that handles everything: Queue Multiple Downloads - Add as many downloads as you want; they'll process one at a time Pause & Resume - Stop downloads and pick up exactly where you left off Prioritize - Jump important downloads to the front of the queue Progress Tracking - See segment counts, percentages, and estimated sizes for each download Part Progress - For large files, track progress through each chunk Crash Recovery - If your browser crashes or you close the tab, incomplete downloads can be recovered automatically Bulk Actions - Pause All, Resume All, or Cancel All with one click 🖼️ PICTURE-IN-PICTURE Keep watching while you browse: Floating Mini Player - Pop the video out into a draggable, resizable window that stays on top Persist Across Pages - Navigate anywhere and your mini player stays with you Video & Audio Modes - Mini player adapts based on your current playback mode Seamless Transitions - Switch between the full player and mini player without losing your position Auto Mini-Player Option - Automatically switch to mini player when closing the main modal Chat Toggle - Open chat overlay directly from the mini player 🔊 AUDIO-ONLY MODE Perfect for podcasts, music streams, or saving bandwidth: Audio Without Video - Listen to any stream without loading video data 6 Visualizer Styles - Frequency Bars, Smooth Wave, Mirrored Wave, Mountain, Circular, and Dot Matrix Visualizer Persistence - Your preferred style is remembered across sessions Works in Mini Player - Audio mode looks great in the floating player too 🔍 SMART SEARCH Find any channel or VOD instantly: Username Search - Just type a streamer's name Channel ID Search - Enter a numeric channel ID directly Direct VOD Access - Type "vod:123456789" to jump straight to a specific VOD Live Stream Access - Type "live:username" to open a live stream directly Auto-Detection - The search bar shows you what type of search it detected Filters - Narrow down results by title, game category, or date range 📵 AD-FREE PLAYBACK Live streams played through Battles Replay bypass ad insertion systems.
