  1. I have hundreds of clips that were made when art streams were categorized as 'Creative'. Even after the tag was changed to 'Art', the tag on the previously made clips remained as 'Creative'. And so now when I try to sort by 'Art', it only brings results starting from 5 months ago, and absolutely none of the clips created before that during the 'Creative' period. Additionally, if I try to sort by 'Creative', it either automatically changes the search to 'Art', or it doesn't even register as a game so I'm unable to hit enter.
    So basically, there's no way…

  2. Twitch.tv is great for watching streams but it's not so great at letting users watch clips. You can’t really voice your opinion after the fact as you can only really read the chat at the time of the clip. You can also post a clip to Reddit but by the time you get around to post it, someone else may have posted it already and is now reaping the rewards. This is where TopClipz comes into play, we value Twitch broadcasters and their community so that’s why we only allow the owner of the clip content to upload said clip…

    Please do not market other sites on the Twitch User Voice.

    We welcome feedback if you would like to post again with a more feedback oriented post.

  3. The change occurred around summer.

    You really outdid yourselves by making clip viewing even worse by having the user leave the clip list page and having pressing 'back' to go to the top of the list.

    You can no longer go and watch each independent clip on a game or channel within an overlay as it goes to the clip viewing page, making the watchers lost.

    I sent this to Twitch Support. Had two months without any interaction from them... until now, when they just redirected me here.

  4. Adding a parameter to let us request clips by views (by default) or by creation time. (And so we can easily get the last clip and also classify clips by date)

  5. When watching VODs it would be awesome to add some quick rewind/forward controls- eg rewind 10 secs/1min/5min/10min/30min/1hr

    With long VODs of many hours, trying to rewind a small amount with mouse and the playbar is difficult- some quick back/fwd preset time buttons would be much more useful

    Hey there,

    Currently, you can hit the left and right arrow buttons on your keyboard to either go back/forwards by 10 seconds. Hope this helps.

  7. Twitch recently changed the format for clips and video manager and we noticed that the "Created by" column has been removed from the clips manager... Please bring it back. It was a very useful tool for us because we have so many people in our group and the "created by" column helped us know who was clipping what broadcasts. It's gone now and we want it back.

    Hello,

    The Clips Manager has a column called "Clipped by" which should enabled you to see who created the clip. Thanks!

    Hey,

    Currently, when you change the category during a stream, a chapter is created to denote different content in the stream which can be chosen by viewers when watching a VOD. If you have further feedback, please let us know.

  9. if you watch a VOD a little preload like in youtube would be great so even if you have shitty internet, there would be a way to watch a 720p VOD

    Hey there, if you're having issues uploading videos to Twitch, please reach out to our support team can troubleshoot with you! Thank you so much.

  12. Streams tend to last for multiple hours and if you end up doing something awkward while on stream, like showing personal info or something similar, you typically cut the stream and delete the vod. However you might not be local recording and you might have something interesting on your vod that you'd want to highlight, but you don't really want the vod to be up for people to see while you highlight it.

    Having the ability to hide the video from public viewing and to be able to highlight stuff from there would be a pretty handy feature.

  13. Vodcasting is great for sharing videos and past broadcasts when a live stream isn't viable - but I'd also like to see the ability to schedule Vodcasts, and perhaps even attach them to the Events functionality.

    For example, if I'll be traveling abroad for a few days, it'd be great to schedule events and unique queues of vods to go live at set times.

    That way I don't have to worry about waking up at a certain hour to manually start a vodcast from my hotel room. I can set it, and focus on my trip.

    The way I'd envision…

  14. Allow users that Share Clips from streams on Social Media to Earn bits.This will entice others to use the clips feature, as well as creative more of a flood of "Twitch is a thing" advertising that we are lacking. Cheering is an amazing interactive feature that so many people participate in, lets give more people more ways to earn bits.
    -This would be a way to earn bits that is beneficial to the platform and streamers (not just Our Advertising Partners)
    -Would create a community participation effect. Someone can help the streamer in a way that is free to do…

  15. When the stream windows is too small horizontally to show the chat on the right side, it would be better if instead it was placed (with an option to close it) below the video so that long vertical windows can still have video and chat.

    For example, this would allow to have the stream and chat when having two windows (one of them chat) side by side. Particularly useful when using a single monitor.

    Windows that are small enough will cause the chat to shift below the player (rather than to the right of the player) when in theater mode.

  16. some people dont have laptops or other pc. and sometimes people want to stream on the chromebook because they cant get to their other pc so at least try to make it work

  17. Isn't it just great if you could keep a video forever as some sort of channel "trademark" or "ads" which could use to attract more viewers, followers or subscribers? Just a short video that you can grab viewers' heart which will appear on the channel page when not broadcasting or hosting.

  18. On clips, the list gets long with content we enjoy from our channel to others. It would be really nice to delete the ones that mean nothing anymore. It would help us keep it clean and organized.

    Talking about organizaion, adding categories that you can named yourself would be amazing. Whether you want to keep a collection of your own or another specifc streamer. This would be a good way to bring all the videos that you want to keep together.

  19. The idea! To have a playlist of clips from the the last 24hr or most watched clips which can be run as a warm up man before the stream has started. say the streamer is starting at 14:00 a mod or streamer runs the latest warm up playlist five minutes before.

    this is a bit out there and Twitch may not be able to let you do this. i can't test as I don't have access to playlist. Can you make a playlist of clips? and can you set up a automatic clip playlist that is deleted and recreated at…

  20. With Uploads, streamers can keep their VOD archive forever. It is finally possible to see a record of every game an individual streamer has played in their career by reviewing their Uploads page. It would be cool to add a "Games Browser" for each channel that mirrors the existing site-wide Games Browser. You would get a searchable view of all of the games represented in a channel's Uploads sorted by total # Views for each game. Streamers could use this to link to archives for specific games they've played on Twitch the way we can currently link to specific games…
