I think it would be fantastic for video editors/highlight editors and viewers, if there was a way of locating and finding clips based on tags and keywords, on top of time periods.

Examples:
- Searching for only clips belonging to a certain tagged game the streamer has played. (Search for Escape from Tarkov, and only clips made during streams where EFT was tagged as the game being played.)
- Searching for clips that share a specific word(s) in the title. (Searching for "Triple kill" or "Jebaited" would show only clips that share at least one of the specified words.
- Being able to have more timeframes to look specifically in like "The last year" "The last three months" "The last Two weeks". I would personally consider this option not as useful or needed as the others, but still an idea that could benefit everyone.

Currently the only options available to filter through a streamer's clips are by age and a few time windows (The last 24hrs, the last week, the last month, and all time)

This really limits the viewership more clips could be receiving, and makes it harder for editors and viewers to locate specific types of clips they're after when putting together Highlight videos for a streamer and their community, or just wanting to share a specific moment.

Say I would like to make a highlight video for a streamer, capturing all of their funniest moments when playing a certain game, but this streamer plays various games, it would be great to be able to search for clips that were made when said game was tagged in the stream, rather than having to browse through every clip over months and filter them myself.

I think these ideas would prove of great use, and I know content creators would certainly appreciate them.

Please consider and thank you.

While I am watching an old broadcast, usually the day or two after it happened, I want to catch up on a few things. I do not watch the entire thing, but usually skip along to key moments. I would appreciate a few different ways to know where to skip along the time track on bottom. For example, if there were markings along the bar that showed where clips were taken. This would let watchers know that something "big" happened there and worth stopping there along the skip. A "Next Clip" button with this could let the user skip along the video faster, but not missing most of the important moments. Not all clips are good or well done, but I can see promise in the idea. If there are too many clips, maybe show the highest viewed one by default and have a list of similar clips on side to watch that clip instead.

Other time bar options could similarly be done to mark the time bar, like a video curator where other re-watchers or current watchers can mark these important moments as they watch, like clipping, but just a time marker instead.

These could also be done in real time videos so that people, who watch after the broadcaster started, can go back to key moments/clips and catch up quickly to the live broadcast.

The value in this feature could be huge as most users probably do not watch the entirety of old VODs, but instead try to skip to some degree.

In my twitch livestreams I often play multiple games.
Afterwards I exported the whole VOD to Youtube and split the content in multiple videos by using the Youtube Video Editor; with that I was able to sort the content according to the game in playlists and categories, because on Youtube one video can only be categorized in one category/game.

Youtube now removed the feature to "split videos to new videos" 😐

"No one used that and you can still easily download, split and reupload the Videos", Youtube says. 🙄
That is BS, because Download is limited to 720p and Youtube recodes the video on upload and therefore much of the video quality is lost.

SO,
as my suggestion ... suggests it would be nice to automatically split VODs according there category. Or at least manually.
Or it would be nice if the Export-Function would contain such an option. To export separate videos according there category.

Thanks for considering

• Higher Bitrate: (Above 10.000, with video quality selector can be managed so if someone won't use that high download usage, he can tweak it), we still have a really low bitrate, and that force us try to tweak OBS to reach higher quality with lower CPU encoding speed. Still this is not a miracle, and 6000 bitrate is so limited (even if there is a trick to go beyond and reach 8000 bitrate).




• HDR: OBS doesn't support because it's not worth it nowadays since Twitch is not supporting it, but other platforms are starting to give a hint to this technology. I think would be nice to have this option since Twitch is being used in so many Smart TV's in the present. So they could enjoy Twitch in a higher quality. Probably this option should need Twitch partnering with OBS or any other streaming program to make it possible in the best way.




• Higher framerate/resolution: These days we're having better connections that allow us to go beyond the old limits, we could make this work since right now is really normal to see a gameplay in 120FPS and even the next gen consoles are supporting it.

Twitch is the best stream platform, but our technical options are the same since almost 10 years ago. We should aim to higher quality so there are no quality loss between our viewership and our content.

It's time to wake up and make some improvements :)

Every streamer runs into a few issues with trolls. Half of the time with trolls or DMCA content, users have to completely delete VODs. Well, unlike Twitch but on other platforms you're able to edit "VODs" a lot more with a lot more detail. That included to making parts quiet, to louder. Replacing or adding music to the vod, or even bluring or blocking unsafe content for the vod and even removing DMCA content from the vod without removing your whole vod to follow through with DMCA.

These systems have been around for ages and I'm completely flabbergasted about twitch's speed at handling for these situations. We have other platforms out performing Twitch in a lot of these design choices in which they protect the content creator a lot more.

I saw a similar suggestion about vod editor but it said a "highlight editor" was in progress. Who cares about highlights when you can't highlight because you're forced to delete a VOD asap for guidelines.
