Collect live streams and stream replays from a channel you identify by channel id or username. Choose sort order, optionally bias with region and language hints, and optionally request more localized channel metadata. The actor follows continuation paging so you can gather more than one page—up to the limit you set.

Who it’s for

• Creators reviewing past broadcasts and ongoing live content in one place.
• Analysts tracking what a channel publishes as live or replay.
• Automation that snapshots the live/replay tab on a schedule.

What you can do with it

• Target a channel with its id or a legacy username (only one lookup path is used: id wins if both are filled).
• Sort items by recency or popularity.
• Optional region and language hints.
• Optional localized channel block when combined with a region.
• Cap how many rows to collect.

How it works (in plain terms)

You provide a channel id or username and options. The actor loads the first page of items, saves rows until your cap, then automatically requests additional pages using the continuation value returned by the service, pausing briefly between requests. You do not paste tokens yourself.

Input

Output

• One row per item (until your cap). Duplicates across pages are skipped when the same videoId appears again.
• Item fields typically include type, videoId, title, channelTitle, channelId, thumbnails, view or time hints, lengthText, live/replay indicators when returned, and similar.
• Feed context: sortOrder; inputChannelId or inputUsername; feedChannelId, feedChannelTitle, feedChannelHandle when the response header includes them; optional region; scrapedAt.
