Question for the Techies!

Blair (and others) would like to be able to keep the live stream videos that he's been working on these last few days. Does anyone know how that can be done?

His account, with active videos. He worries that they only save them a few days.

Thanks for any help or suggestions!
Found it on their Support forums.

Go your videos page (http://www.twitch.tv/*accountnamehere*/videos) and click the one you want to save. Next, click the gear icon under the video player and then "Save forever".

There is also the option to upload to YouTube, they'll last longer there too and be more discoverable also?

Yeah I believe if you go to the specific page that the video archive is on there is some options to either keep it or upload it to Youtube. Also to be sure you can always use some browser plugin that downloads videos to your desktop.

Something I found regarding the Save Forever option on the Twitch TV forums:
Also on reliability, if you mark the video to save forever it should stay there permanently barring a technical glitch.
That being said, if it's an important video you might want to have a secondary backup anyway.
One browser plugin I've used to download Twitch TV videos to my PC before is this one:

But there are a LOT of others!
