Here's the scenario I'm trying to figure out:
- There's a website that streams live content e.g.
twitch. - I have a virtual machine set up on a cloud platform like
GCP. - I'm able to record these streams locally by means of software like
OBS. - I want to achieve the same thing on the VM I have in the cloud.
The problems that I need help with:
Do I need to setup a GUI and connect to the VM via VNC and then start recording content as usual and close the VNC session? VNC setup would be as described over here.
Or is there a way in which I can setup recording via CLI and then download the recorded content later?
I can elaborate further if anyone needs more clarification.

Don’t “record” it, just download the video stream. – szatmary – 2019-01-23T17:26:52.447
those are live streams, so I'm not sure what you mean by just download them. can you elaborate a little? – gautamc – 2019-01-24T14:58:40.983
Live, not live, doesn't matter. Its just a bunch of little two second videos that are played back seamlessly. Its called HLS (in twitch's case) Just look that up. There are a million tools to download it. – szatmary – 2019-01-24T18:44:04.490
