  1. As of this month it has been changed so clips say "1 Month Ago" or "2 Months Ago" when they used to show the exact date it was posted. Please put the exact date back on, it helps immensely with my clip recaps and now I have extra steps.

  2. Description: Sometimes the buttons on the player, pause, mute, etc. are unable to be clicked on.

    I've noticed this problem mainly while having a stream playing in another tab and tabbing back into it. e.g. have multiple streams open for events/tournaments. Have had it happen on multiple PC's

    When this occurs I can still use 'Space' to pause the stream but I have to refresh the page to use the other buttons.

    Repro: I'm not sure on exact repro steps, just keep a stream open in another tab, muted and check on it every now and then
    Conditions: I'm using…

  3. When this occurs and I try logging out and logging in again I get stuck on the login screen to the message "Browser not supported" on both Firefox and Google Chrome (which are both supported browsers) until waiting another day or so to login again. Staying logged in on the same session I get restricted use of the site and is unable to create new clips or highlight VODs until waiting a certain period of time.

    There is something severely wrong with Twitch website causing this to occur. I can only guess that this is a rate limiting feature that…

  4. After viewing a clip, the next suggested clip will be the most viewed clip in that category. In the Art category, this usually means being suggested a pretty spicy thumbnail whether or not you have watched a clip from a spicy channel. With the latest TOS update this suggested clips feature has further made sharing clips from the Twitch link inaccessible to more "family friendly" art streams.

    I was wondering if Twitch could utilize stream tags to divert suggested clip content to each side of the art category- this way the clip fits the audience better. Example: if a stream has a…

  5. As a viewer, it was always great to see when a clip I had made got featured by the creator or one of their mods who had access to do that. With the newest update, you can now ONLY see what clips are featured if you have the ability to feature them as a moderator/editor/creator as far as I can see. It was very useful to see what types of clips different creators were looking for when one was featured vs another one not featured and that ability has now been removed, or relocated into a hard to find location.…

  6. As someone who enjoys watching Twitch streams before bedtime, I've encountered the frustration of waking up hours later, only to find that my battery has run out and a different stream is still running due to a raid.

    I wanted a feature that lets me set a timer for the stream to stop playing after a chosen duration, ensuring a peaceful night's sleep without waking up to unintended streams.

  7. Featured clips used to have a slider to show/hide featured clips in category view. This switch has been removed. Bring it back.

    "Why should you bring it back?" I hear you ask. "People love featured clips".

    Well, it's because you've created a scenario where there is a HUGE incentive to only EVER create featured clips, because these will ALWAYS show above any non-featured clip, created in the timeframe you're viewing, which means that (when people figure this out) that ALL clips created (by people wishing to promote their channels) will tend to be created as "featured" clips. When everything is…

  8. The clip editing system is sensational. It saves time and also money, as there are websites that require you to pay to do this service.
    But I believe there are still some "simple" tools that will help a lot.
    - Cut the clip. There are some clips that you are not interested in at the beginning or end of it, but there is no trim option. With that in mind, the cutting tool would be interesting, which allows you to cut the video timeline and edit it however you want (only in the clip, obviously).
    - Option to customize my…

  9. I love to make clips, it's one of my favorite ways to interact with the community. I think I'm well over 1000 clips created at this point, mostly from one streamer's channel. Trying to find anything is a nightmare. The best way I've found to search is to sort by date and scroll until I think I'm in the range of the clip I want, press ctrl+F, and type in a word I think is in the title. Then, because I can't read more than one or two words from the title column, I have to guess which one on…

  10. I am enjoying the new Featured Clips stuff. I am wondering why we cannot feature clips from "Clips I've Created", we can only feature them from "Clips of my Channel". You would think these clips would overlap, but they do not. It is just odd that the "Clips I've Created" (usually while I am LIVE), are not also listed in the "Clips of my Channel". If I go to a VOD and make it again, it does show up there. I hope I am making sense.

  11. "Watch full video" is only available when going to the Clip page from the popup video player, why can't we go straight to the full video? Perhaps with a small button next to the other ones at the bottom of the player. Personally I use it a lot when I see a good clip and want some extra context.
    There isn't even a button to get to the clip page easily, have to copy paste the link or exit the player and click on the text part of the clip.

  12. As it stands today, the only way for anyone to actively see clips from a content creator on this site is either via the small section featured on the home page if you scroll down enough or by looking at the specific streamers profile. With how many clips, highlights and VODs exist on this platform, there should be a way for viewers to easily browse/consume that content without having to discover that creator while they're live.

    Although this is a broad request, essentially what I'm asking for is:

    • Landing page for highlights / VODs, with a way to search for…

  14. There seems to be a very noticeable audio glitch at the end of Highlight Segments. The audio cuts off for a very quick moment. All of my Highlights have this issue. This issue occurs even for each Segment when there are multiple Segments in a Highlight. Please fix, thank you.

    Here is an example video on Twitch and YouTube. The glitch is at the 0:36 mark:

  15. Sleep mode / Turn auto-play off / Auto-Opt out of raids setting

    Please give the option to turn raids off as the viewer. I want to sleep I don't want my computer to stay on all night because people keep raiding each other. I want to save energy and I want my bedroom to go dark and silent. Advertisers are paying money for people who aren't even watching ads, pretty sure they don't want that either.
    As it is now if I want to go to sleep with media on I just make a little youtube playlist instead of watching…

  16. I hate using Twitch because EVERY TIME I load the page, a video starts playing somewhere in the background, muted. I don't know if you're aware, but many users don't have unlimited internet bandwidth, so having a video start playing when I can't even hear it is just wasting my data. PLEASE stop doing this. I would love it if there was an option to disable autoplay entirely, but if that's not in the cards, then at least stop muting the audio! If I go to watch a VOD, I want it HEAR it in addition to seeing it. Forcing…

  17. Many times when watching VODs, you just want to see the highlights without watching the entire thing. This would make it easier to stay up to date on your favorite streamer or get a feel for a streamer you're interested in watching.

    An elegant way to be able to do that could be with a histogram on the progress bar based on chat frequency.

    A competitor recently implemented histograms on their progress bars based on most watched parts but given that the majority of watch time on Twitch is live and uninterrupted, having it based on chat would be more…

  18. Allow us to download specific chapters from a VOD, since sometimes we want specific parts out of a 6 hour stream, this can make the download take way longer, same goes for the file size

  19. Allow streamer to mute VOD sections and re-publish to be sure the mute is in the correct places (the auto-muting is quite often off the mark).

    Giving the option to mute the section in the vod while live would be awesome as well. For example, when playing a game that has copyrighted music in it we could easily start the muted section just for the VOD without muting in the live stream. This would be particularly helpful for playing games that have copyright music in the soundtrack which is safe to live stream but not to have stored in the…
