Description

I am trying to download VODs from Twitch using timestamps to avoid downloading the whole video, but I have been unable to do so even using the --player-passthrough hls option. I would be interested in knowing the current state of this feature and whether if it will support beginning and ending timestamps (-ss hh:mm:ss -ee hh:mm:ss).

Thanks for the awesome work.

Now that #1303 is merged, we could support the timestamp in URL format for twitch, with t=12h14m25s for example in the URL.

While it would be covered by #134, I think that might be a way off… VOD HLS streams are pretty easy to skip around in, a possible solution: beardypig/streamlink@ce9b8b6.
