twitch-dl changelog

2.0.0 (2022-08-18)

This release switches from using requests to httpx for making http requests, and from threads to asyncio for concurrency. This enables easier implementation of new features, but has no breaking changes for the CLI.

  • BREAKING: Require Python 3.7 or later.
  • Add --rate-limit option to download for limiting maximum bandwidth when downloading.
  • Allow passing multiple video ids to download to download multiple videos successively.
  • Improved progress meter, updates on each chunk downloaded, instead of each VOD downloaded.
  • Improved speed estimate, displays recent speed instead of average speed since the start of download.
  • Decreased default concurrent downloads to 5. This seems to be enough to saturate the download link in most cases. You can override this by setting the -w option. Please test and report back if this works for you.
