The watchlist is a set of stable SOOP Live creator IDs. It is not a list of video URLs and does not consume storage while everyone is offline.
Add a creator
Send /watch SOOPREC_ID. SoopRec resolves the public identity and stores the stable creator ID for future checks. Adding the same creator again does not use a second slot.
View and remove entries
Send /watchlist to display current IDs and removal buttons. Use /unwatch SOOPREC_ID when you no longer want automatic recordings. Removing a watch does not cancel a live capture that already has other eligible recipients.
Watchlist slots versus simultaneous recordings
Free has two watchlist slots but one active recording. Basic has 25 slots and up to 25 active recordings, with 10 manual /rec commands at once. Pro has 100 watchlist and active slots, with 25 manual recordings.
A slot says who to monitor. Active limits say how much can record at the same moment. They are not daily or monthly quotas.
What if several users watch the same creator?
SoopRec captures one logical live once for all eligible users watching that creator. This reduces duplicate source requests and keeps the delivered result consistent, with plan-specific duration versions when required.
Does the watchlist guarantee every broadcast?
No. Public source availability, polling cadence, plan capacity and platform changes can affect admission. The bot avoids promising a recording until it has a stable creator identity and usable media.
