[Twitch] ERROR: An extractor error has occurred. (caused by KeyError('data'));

View on GitHub

Summary

The Twitch extractor for youtube-dl is encountering a `KeyError('data')` when trying to process a Twitch video URL. This indicates that expected data is missing or malformed in the API response from Twitch, likely due to a change on their end. The contributor needs to inspect the network requests made by youtube-dl when accessing the provided URL and identify how the 'data' key is now structured or if it's absent, and then update the extractor to handle the new response format.
