[Bug Report] Clip creation settings (layout and stacked configurations) are no longer carrying over
Description
Please note that I am posting this issue after having already contacted Twitch Support regarding this matter.
When creating clips on channels other than my own for the same streamer and category, the following settings fail to carry over and instead revert to their default states:
- Portrait Version layout settings
Position and size settings of each screen when configured to Stacked
This issue has been occurring consistently since around June 2026.
Initially, I waited to see if it was a temporary glitch or isolated to a specific environment, but it remains unresolved to this day.
As it is unclear whether this is an intentional change or a bug, please investigate and review this behavior.

Note regarding "Steps to Reproduce":
The mentioned error log is not output during the initial clip creation.
This is likely because there is no previous configuration state on the first launch.
