Clips

Clips are the output of the editor. A clip is a start and end timestamp on a VoD, plus an optional rendered chat overlay. You create them by dragging on the chat activity graph and then refine them in the sidebar.

Creating a clip

To create a clip, click and drag across a range on the graph. A clip bracket appears showing the selected window. The clip then opens in the sidebar where you can adjust:

• Start and end second-level inputs for fine trimming.
• Clip name, optionally using a naming template.
• Category, for grouping related clips together.
• Whether to render a chat overlay alongside the clip MP4.

Clips page

The Clips page shows every clip you have made across every VoD. Filter by category to pull together everything tagged for a compilation, or rename groups of clips at once with a template.

Sidebar in the editor

While editing a VoD, the sidebar lists the clips for that VoD only. Each row shows two render statuses: the clip video render and the optional chat overlay render. Statuses cycle through pending, rendering, ready, and occasionally failed or stale when you edit the bracket after the first render.

Categories and naming templates

Categories are reusable labels you assign to clips. Common ones are funny moments, big plays, reactions, and compilation. Color-coded so they are easy to scan.

Naming templates fill in placeholders like streamer name, VoD publish date, clip index, and start time, so you can keep a consistent file naming convention without typing it by hand. Apply a template across a category in one click before exporting.

Export

Once a clip is ready, you can download it as an MP4 directly from the sidebar or the Clips page. The chat overlay, if you rendered one, downloads separately as either a flat MP4 or a transparent MOV depending on your settings. Drop both into your editor of choice for the final composite.
