  1. Please allow PC to go into screen off mode if there is no stream currently playing. As it is now, if a user's browser is open to a stream and the stream ends or crashes, the PC monitor will stay on indefinitely and never timeout. Please make it so that website stops sending a "video is playing, keep screen on" signal to the PC so that it can screen off and save the monitor from screen burn-in damage.

  2. Portrait Layout is straight forward, but can be wanting in certain scenarios such as when the subject of one of the two panels is moving between the left and right sides of the screen (say Mario isn't always centered for instance) or when certain context is needed from another region of the screen (say health or ammo in different corners from the streamer). When I encounter such scenarios the Twitch editor is not good enough and I need to take it to an external editor to get the job done.

    I would suggest following features.

    1. Allow moving the Panels e.g.…

  3. Editing tools on Firefox are EXTREMELY slow and stuttery and need fixing. I hav Ungoogled Chrome here exactly for this issue but I rather would use Firefox.

    Another thing is that since you could edit the lenght of clips afterwards there is a bug that it would cut too early and remove the sound but still show the video part.

    This happens to nearly every clip and every is embedded into the ones you download.

    VERY annoying.

  4. When you create a clip via API, it get's the Stream-Title as Clip-Title. Even if you rename it afterwards in the Editor, it will keep the First Name within the

    <meta property="og:description" content="Sieh dir den Clip von Dili mit dem Titel „*Hier steht was cooles* ♡ | !holzkern | !dc | ᵂᴱᴿᴮᵁᴺᴳ“ an."/><meta name="title" content="Dili - *Hier steht was cooles* ♡ | !holzkern | !dc | ᵂᴱᴿᴮᵁᴺᴳ"/>

    Would be nice to update this aswell so when DC or other Services pull this info, you don't have some outdated Title

  5. Having the stream name, view count, streamer name, etc. at the top of the video player is driving me insane - I absolutely despise this and would LOVE the ability to toggle where this information is displayed. Having it below the stream for me is massively more convenient, and I think giving users the option of where they'd like this displayed is far better than only having one or the other.

  6. I myself am not too keen on the new changes it feels weird to look at and makes it so the information bellow doesn't look good overall, just like mod view could we potentially have the option to select where we want things to be? like for example if people want the chat on the left and stream on the right and the followed channels on the opposite side? or like many people prefer the streamer name/title bellow the stream? it would be highly appreciated

  7. The "Intended for Certain Audiences" warning can't be dismissed and keeps blocking portions of the video whenever I mouse over the video.
    It's distracting.
    Please stop stealing our real estate.

    Ideally just give us a setting to PERMANENTLY disable all such warnings.
    At the very least, give us the ability to dismiss the warning until refreshing the page. It is ridiculous that you keep the warning up for the entirety of a stream AND entirety of vods/clips/...

  8. You can now edit clips, make them shorter etc. Enable the same feature for Highlights, that you can edit them later and not only in the beginning when you make them, make them shorter or mute some parts afterwards.

  9. Critical Bug -- when playing back clips made with the new clipping tool, the audio doesn't start until, like, half-way into the clip. As a former professional editor, audio is MUCH more important to get right than video. The audio playback has to be solid! Clips are worthless without the full audio.

    Bug -- clicking near the begin point will repositioning the playhead AT the begin point instead of where you clicked.

    Frustrating -- Dragging the end point of a clip in the editor to choose a new end point will reposition the playhead to the new end, and pause…

  10. I want to be able to make Highlights and shorts out of Highlights.
    For example:
    Make a highlight of a VOD that captures the main bulk of the interesting content.
    Then make a highlight of the highlight to get key moments.
    Then make a short using the key moments of the highlights.

  11. The old UI for creating clips let me view the video I was clipping in fullscreen. The new UI shows me the video in a tiny preview window that makes the details basically impossible to see (e.g. I watch programming streams, and I can no longer read any of the 1080p text in the clip preview video player).

    Pleaesssseeseeseeeee add the fullscreen button/hotkey back to the video player on the create clip page so that I can actually see what I'm clipping!

  12. Dear Twitch, when I am watching a stream in full screen, I do not want to see hype-train notifications, pinned chat messages etc blocking up a portion of the stream, please give me the option to disable these, I find them intrusive and annoying, and it ruins my viewing experience.

    I'm not asking for them to be removed, just for me to be able to disable them so they dont pop-up while watching in full screen.

  13. "Who is allowed to feature Clips?
    Streamers and their editors can feature Clips by default. Streamers can choose to grant featuring access to Moderators by visiting their Clips settings. Moderators will be notified when they are given featuring permissions."

    Where?!
    I was given this permission by a streamer. Now, in the clip manager there is no selection for this streamers channel. The only two options are clips of my channel and clips I've created.

  14. Since the clipping tool has been updated during this summer, the page gives us a URL that doesn't correspond to the usual clip URLs.

    We previously had a URL of the form: https://clips.twitch.tv/RandomDictionnaryWords-4ZFs9PkmZbaX1mSl

    And now we have a URL of the form: https://www.twitch.tv/streamer_name/clip/RandomDictionnaryWords-4ZFs9PkmZbaX1mSl

    This new URL does display the clip, but no longer, for example, displays deleted clip errors.

  15. Stop showing me the popup for the "new" portrait clips feature.

    Every time I clip, the stupid popup comes up and I have to click it off. I don't care about portrait mode clips. I will never care about portrait mode clips. I will never intentionally edit a portrait mode clip.

    The feature is fine for people who want it. But stop forcing me to click through and learn about it every time I make a clip.

  16. If you put a banned word in a title, the old clip system would give you a warning and let you edit the title.

    The new clip system... is inconsistent. Sometimes it allows you to put in ANY words you want (skipping the censor system entirely).

    Sometimes it allows you to put in anything (no warning) and then immediately deletes your clip/gives you a warning (this could just be coincidence/random errors).

    Then if you later try to edit the name of the clip on the CLIP page, it'll say "something went wrong" if you use censored words.

    Please make this…

  17. My support agency has a bot for checking sponsors that generates random clips during streams. If a filter could be added to hide a user's clips without having to delete them, it would be much easier to find and manage clips worthy of being exported and shared

    Such a filter could also be used to control any suspicious users who only create clips for the purpose of harassing

  18. Currently, portrait/vertical clips using the Stacked layout are stretching the content if the source isn't 16:9.

    When editing the layout it will appear correctly, but the end result once rendered will be stretched.

    For example, a 21:9 "ultrawide" source stream will result in clips that end up with both the facecam and the game being horizontally squished.

  20. It actually happens when you're signed in to Twitch.tv. It doesn't matter which browser it is. The VODs pages are not loading more VODs in every category. It only shows 30 VODS in each category.
