Replaces the standard twitch player with a custom one that supports DVR.

What is Twitch DVR player?

Twitch DVR Player is a Chrome extension that enhances your Twitch streaming experience. It replaces the standard Twitch player with one that supports DVR, allowing users to rewind and forward within a live stream. It is an invaluable tool for users who don't want to miss any moment of their favorite streams. However, the functionality may be broken if the streamer has disabled auto-publishing of VODs. Notably, the extension allows users to toggle between the standard and the DVR player at will.

Summary

Analyze keywords

Never miss an exciting moment again with Twitch DVR (not actually affiliated with Twitch in any way). Replace the standard Twitch player with one that supports rewinding to any point in the stream! Jump back and forth between live and previous content. Installing the extension will automatically replace the Twitch player with a player that supports DVR. You can toggle between the DVR player and the regular Twitch player at any time.

NOTE: Twitch has added a feature that stops VODs from auto-publishing on some channels (streamer can toggle this on and off). This breaks Twitch DVR Player and unfortunately there's nothing I can do about this if the streamer has it on (they might not know).

It's working really well for rewinding, but you must know that if a streamer has disabled VODS, this won't work. I don't know if it's possible to have an extension that actually can solve this for the sake of logic and programming.

FIXED previous issue Thanks for the Fix Karl! However, I'm now experiencing an issue with the playback function on MOST streams but not all, as its just jumping back to LIVE unless I rewind at least 1.5 hours back. If I pause for 1 min or even over 10 mins it will jump straight back to live I'm hoping you could fix this issue as well! Cheers and thanks for the hard work, your awesome! Previous NOW FIXED issue: "Every time I type in chat and use SPACE BAR it Pauses the stream and is very annoying, otherwise its a perfect extension but the spacebar thing just ruins the experience. Please fix this issue or allow us to turn Space bar pause off!"

It has stopped working. Now the possibility of rewinding the live video does not even appear. The playbar no longer appears.
