config/URL_config.ini file is the primary input for DouyinLiveRecorder. Each line represents one live room to monitor. The tool re-reads this file at the start of every loop cycle, so you can add or remove rooms while the recorder is running without restarting it.
Basic format
Add one URL per line:config/URL_config.ini
Comment out a room
Prefix a line with# to temporarily stop monitoring and recording that room without removing its URL:
config/URL_config.ini
Per-room quality override
The global quality setting inconfig.ini applies to all rooms, but you can override it for individual rooms by prefixing the URL with a quality value and a comma:
config/URL_config.ini
原画、超清、高清、标清、流畅
Use a Chinese comma
， (fullwidth) between the quality value and the URL, not an ASCII comma.Custom anchor name
By default the recorder uses the streamer’s display name fetched from the platform. To override it with a fixed name, add the主播: prefix followed by your custom name before the quality and URL:
config/URL_config.ini
Platform URL examples
Most platforms accept multiple URL formats — a full room URL, a short/share URL, or a streamer’s homepage URL. If the platform’s homepage URL is used, DouyinLiveRecorder fetches the active stream from that page automatically.
How changes take effect
DouyinLiveRecorder re-readsURL_config.ini at the beginning of each monitoring loop. You do not need to restart the program after editing the file. Changes — adding rooms, removing rooms, commenting lines, or changing quality prefixes — are picked up automatically on the next cycle.
