Frequently Asked Questions
What's different from 17live's built-in Stream Archive?
17live's Stream Archive lives inside the 17live app and is governed by your permission settings — fans need to log into 17live to view, and there's no shareable, search-indexed URL for each Live. LiveStreamRecorder gives every broadcast a public web URL fans can open in any browser, no 17live account or app install needed. Same Live, plain-web distribution.
Stream Clips already exist in 17live — why use ClipAI?
17live Stream Clips are great inside the app, but they're capped at 15–90 seconds and stay on 17live's surface. ClipAI cuts unlimited-length highlight clips from your full saved Lives, formatted for TikTok / Reels / Shorts — where most of your potential new fans actually spend time. Different goal: 17live Clips are for fans already in the app; ClipAI is for funneling new fans into the app.
I'm a V-Liver — does the recording capture my avatar correctly?
Yes. We capture whatever 17live's stream actually delivers to viewers. Your Live2D/3D avatar, OBS scene composition, MIDI overlays, voice changers — all in the recording as-is, because the capture happens after your rendering stack and before 17live's distribution. Same fidelity as what fans see live.
Do I need to run OBS, a phone recorder, or any local software?
No. You go live on the 17live app from your phone or PC like you always do. The recording happens server-side in our infrastructure — your phone can sleep, your laptop can be off after the stream starts. No CPU, no GPU, no battery drain on your device.
Can I download the raw HEVC video file?
Premium users can download the raw video for re-editing, uploading to YouTube as a long-form VOD, or local archival. Free tier streamers can watch back in any browser without downloading.
Does this affect my 17live talent agency / Hot Star points / gifting?
No — zero impact on your 17live account state. LiveStreamRecorder doesn't log into your 17live account, doesn't touch ranking, doesn't interfere with talent agency tooling. The recording is opt-in by you as the 17live creator for your own account, and only captures your own Lives — nothing else. Same legal posture as downloading your own broadcasts from 17live's in-app Stream Archive, just stored on the public web instead.
Is recording my own 17live broadcasts allowed?
You're recording **your own content** on **your own profile**. Opt-in per 17live creator, only captures your own Lives. Same legal posture as downloading your own 17live archive from the in-app Stream Archive — just to a different storage location.
17live Recordings on LiveStreamRecorder
17live (pronounced yi-qi live — 一起, Mandarin for "together") is Asia's third-largest live-streaming platform, founded in Taiwan in 2015 and headquartered in Japan since 2021. It hosts both Livers (human streamers) and V-Livers (virtual avatar streamers — a category 17live pioneered). Strong in Japan, Taiwan, Hong Kong, Singapore, and the Philippines, listed on SGX as LVR. LiveStreamRecorder keeps a full, web-accessible recording of every Live you broadcast — sitting alongside 17live's in-app Stream Archive but on the open web.
Why a Second Recording When 17live Already Has Stream Archive?
17live's own Stream Archive is fine — it stores recent Lives inside the 17live app, gated by your permission toggles. But fans need the 17live app to view it, the archive is not Google-indexable, and there's no stable public URL per broadcast that you can paste in Discord or a Twitter bio. LiveStreamRecorder is complementary, not competitive: same broadcast captured a second time, this time landing on a public web URL like livestreamrecorder.com/live17/your-id/video/... that any browser can open instantly.
Same Capture for Livers and V-Livers
We record what 17live broadcasts — whether you're a face-cam Liver doing chat / song / dance, an OBS-composed Liver with a custom scene, or a V-Liver running Live2D / 3D avatars. The capture is upstream of 17live's distribution, so your final video looks exactly like what your fans saw live: avatar, overlays, voice changes, gift animations, all preserved.
No App on Your Phone, No OBS on Your PC
Server-side. You stream from your phone or PC like you always do, the recording happens in our infrastructure. After your Live starts, your phone can sleep, your laptop can be off — the recording continues. No CPU drain, no GPU load, no extra battery cost. This matters for long-format singing or talk Lives that go 4+ hours.
Beyond the 90-Second Clip Limit
17live's in-app Stream Clips are great for sharing inside the app but they're capped at 15–90 seconds and don't leave 17live's surface. Premium streamers can use ClipAI on LiveStreamRecorder to cut highlight clips of any length from full saved Lives, formatted for TikTok, Instagram Reels, YouTube Shorts — the platforms most non-17live viewers actually live on. Use them as a funnel back to your 17live room.
Built for Talent-Managed and Indie Streamers Equally
17live's talent management system actively scouts and supports streamers — that's part of what makes the platform distinct from purely self-serve apps. LiveStreamRecorder doesn't touch any of that. It doesn't log into your 17live account, doesn't interfere with Hot Star events, gifting promos, or your talent agency's tools. It's a passive parallel recording — your control, your URL, your archive.
Watch in Browser, Download if You Need It
Every 17live recording plays instantly in any modern browser. No 17live account required to watch — share the URL with anyone, anywhere. Premium creators can download the raw HEVC video file from each Live for re-editing, uploading to YouTube as long-form VOD, or local archival.
Opt-In, Your Own Content
LiveStreamRecorder only records your own profile, only after you opt in. Recording is the same legal posture as downloading your own Lives from 17live's in-app Stream Archive — just stored on a different surface (a public web URL on your domain instead of inside the app). Stop recording any time, delete any recording with one click.
