Is it possible for twitchpipe to grab metadata from stream and write a log file in the same naming format as the recording? like date-uniqueid.ts and date-uniqueid.txt?

I think the twitch API gives quite a bit of info on a stream when it's live like stream start date/time (this could be useful for archiving and possible chat sync), game changes (if it could log all possible game categories that were set and the time they were set at in the recording/localtime), title changes (most times a streamer forgets to change their title before going live and would change it many times during stream, it'd be nice for archival purposes), and maybe peak viewers (archival purposes).

I think the API supports all of these.
