Channel details
When the app knows which channel a log came from — either because you imported a Twitch VOD (where the streamer name is detected automatically) or because you filled in the Streamer name field for a log file or CSV — it looks up the channel's public profile and shows it on the Channel Details tab.
What you see
The Channel Details panel shows the streamer's public profile:
| Field | Description |
|---|---|
| Avatar | The channel's profile picture |
| Display name | The streamer's display name |
| Bio / description | The channel's "About" text |
| Followers | Total follower count |
| Partnership status | "Twitch Partner", "Twitch Affiliate", or blank |
| Account age | When the channel was created (e.g. "Account created Jan 2018") |
| Total views | All-time channel view count |
| Live status | "Currently Live" or "Offline" |
| Last broadcast title | Most recent stream title |
| Last broadcast game | Category of the last stream |
| Stream start time | (If live) when the current stream began |
How it works
- Twitch — via the official Helix API
- Kick — via Kick's public channel API
No authentication is required — only public profile data is fetched, and only for the one channel being analysed.
The lookup happens once when you import. If you're offline or the platform's API is unreachable, the Channel Details tab won't appear. Reimporting later (when you're back online) will populate it.
Always fresh
There's no long-term cache. Each import looks the channel up again, so follower counts and live status are always current.
Why this is useful
Beyond the at-a-glance context (you immediately know if this is a big partner channel or a small new one), the channel details give the analysis a useful anchor point:
- A 2k-message chat on a 500-follower channel is wildly different from the same volume on a 500k-follower channel
- A partner-tier channel with a long account history suggests an established audience whose patterns are stable
- Last broadcast info helps when comparing two imports — same streamer, same game, different reactions
