VoD Archiving Guide

I don't even know how to start this, but I'm the Nyanners archive anon - a.k.a Nyarchivist. I had some pastebins with some information about how to archive VODs, but that was too much of a mess to me, so I reworked them into this Guide. This is not supposed to be an in-depth guide, as there are many more things about archiving that I could mention here, but I don't want to make this guide much longer than it needs to be. I made this guide to mostly cover the basics of VOD archiving.

The reason why I decided to make this guide is that I saw many people mention they would be willing to archive VODs, but they don't know how or don't want to put in the time to learn how to do it. So, I decided to make a really easy to understand guide that covers the basics to make it as easy as possible - so anyone could archive VODs if they want to do so.

The things I'm going to cover in this Guide will be the following:
