TTAutoRecord: Automated TikTok Live Stream Recorder

TTAutoRecord is a specialized utility designed to automate the recording of live streams on TikTok.

Features

• Automatically record users you follow
• Concatenates laggy lives into one file
• Records age restricted lives
• Records sub-only lives
• GUI displaying status of recordings

System Requirements

• 3GB Spare RAM
• 64Bit Desktop CPU (I have tested this on a Xeon D-1521 and it works, however a high frequency desktop CPU will perform better)
• SSD - Recommended to keep things running smoothly, of course you can offload recordings to a hard drive for storage.
• 50Mbps FTTC/FTTP internet connection recommended.

If you can, I would suggest having a PC/Server dedicated to running this. I have done my best to minimize the amount of requests to TikTok, however their webpages are incredibly demanding to render so it may cause other applications to lag.
