Provide a description that is worded well enough to be understood
Downloading the Live_Chat of a live, currently broadcasting stream is always "Top Chat".
In Youtube_live_chat.py, line 67 is the line of code to switch to the unfiltered "Live Chat" setting. The function that this line of code is in appears only on line 127 in a conditional OR that only ever gets called when retrieving the replay of a concluded broadcast.
Can "Live" Live Chats be made unfiltered as well, please?
