Download Deleted Twitch Vods

UPDATE: I am fairly sure that this script no longer works

DISCLAIMER: I am fairly certain that for most streamers you can only obtain vods that were deleted within the last two months (60 days)

Requirements:

Once you have all requirements installed, run the script and enter the info it needs (streamer name, vod ID, start timestamp of stream) and it will return a url. Feed this url into VLC's network stream and you can now view deleted vods.

streamer name: the exact streamer's name
vod ID: The broadcast id can be found in the last part of the URL on twitchtracker. For example https://twitchtracker.com/hasanabi/streams/40383779998, the broadcast id is 40383779998.
start timestamp: formatted like this (YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS) in UTC time.
