Audio disturbances in the vod download.

What's the VOD link? What program are you using to play back the file?

[andreazaimbri]

In VLC, and when I edit the video in Adobe Premiere I hear audio noise every 10 second.

Cool, VOD link so I can try and reproduce the issue?

[andreazaimbri]

Can I attach the downloaded video?

Can I attach the downloaded video?

Yes you can

The file is too big, this is the vod link: https://www.twitch.tv/videos/1844285066

Kinda sound like the same as #352

But, I downloaded the whole VOD, and played via MPC-HC/VLC/Premier 2021 and audio sounds fine. I'm pretty sure these issues are usually decoding issues on the users end, not really a problem with the encoding itself.

I'd be interested if you'd be willing to upload your video file to like Google Drive, but I'm pretty sure it would play fine on my PC. But if I cannot reproduce the issue I'll probably end up closing this.

This problem appears when i add the video on Adobe Premiere

[ScrubN]

I do not hear the audio disturbances in the google drive previewer, nor in VLC, MPV, or Vegas Pro 17. There is also no evidence of audio disturbances from 2 different spectrograms of the audio.

It is most likely that either your computer just needs a reboot or your audio drivers are bad.

If I download the Twitch vod with the video downloader extension, I don't notice any audio problems, while if I download with the Twitch Downloader the glitches are present. I attach a link of an edited video with premiere that contain the problem: https://youtu.be/bxWKXh_pjyc

[andreazaimbri]

The audio driver in my computer is updated, and I do not have other audio issues.

There can be so many possible thing going wrong, but it's an issue isolated to just you.

When you uploaded it to Google Drive, Google was able to successfully decode/re-encode the file (since it has to for compression). On my computer in every program I try it decodes fine. Nobody else is reporting this, and this program has a good amount of users at this point where if there was widespread audio glitches when downloading any VOD it should be pretty well known.

Maybe something going wrong with premier? Maybe can toggle between hardware/software decoding on Premier? But again if I cannot reproduce it (which I cannot) I'm gonna close.

Hi, I have this exact same issue in the same situation as him.
Same editing program (Adobe Premiere Pro), this issue only happens with footage that comes from TwitchDownloader. Tested multiple times with footage from different channels, and footage downloaded in other computers.
So I'm thinking the issue is not with your app but with Premiere and how it decodes audio, however, I'm out of ideas on how to fix it. I really like using your app and would hate if it continued this way, as it is a deal breaker.
