[Test] New Options Under Live Video Player Some viewers may notice up to three new buttons below the video player of live channels: Rewind the Stream, Remind Me, and Watch Trailer.
We're rolling out this update for testing purposes, to help inform future features. This experiment is expected to last one month.
We'd love to hear your thoughts and suggestions. We look forward to hearing your feedback!

Do something with clips Clips are an amazing feature on Twitch and I feel they're (already) somewhat underused. The new layout seems to make this worse, since clips don't even get their own header or section.
Something like a clip reel would make a great showcase for new viewers, plus something existing viewers can be proud of ("hey I clipped that!"). Perhaps it can be added on the home page? Or maybe just the option of merging several clips into one highlight video (per month, or whatever)?
66 votesHey guys, you can actually sort of set this up the way you’re describing! Head to the Videos tab and choose “Customize Layout”. From here, you can edit the layout to display your Clips (I have my own as the very top shelf on my homepage .). Similarly, you can create a Collection of Highlights to be your top shelf. I will leave this topic open for the general feedback about and the Home display, though.

Let me go to video page without seeing stream! I often use the 'videos' page as a placeholder to remind me "I can't watch this stream right now but I need to check out the VOD of this later." Except now the Videos page (which is annoying AF to get to without manually typing it in), it plays the stream! If I wanted to watch the stream, I would WATCH THE STREAM. If I want to look at videos, let me look at videos WITHOUT WATCHING THE STREAM (maybe a second copy of the stream, which interferes with my viewing, if I opened it in a new window). Worse,…

Featured videos need to be clearly labeled as highlights or streams, and include a title Highlights misleadingly have the text "Check out this <game> stream from x days ago," which isn't appropriate, since highlights are very different from full streams. These videos need to at the very least have a prominently displayed title, and it must be very clear whether a video is a stream or a highlight.
Example: After the trailer, my first featured video is a highlight from 21 days ago of me reacting to a hype train. I don't want it misrepresented as an example of "a <game> stream" with no further information.

see moar collections Currently, users can only see the last 4 updated 'collection' videos. This was not the case many months ago.
Being able to scroll further down and see all the collections a broadcaster has produced (like myself) in the form of a playlist is a awesome.

Customize Layout the collections feature it's an amazing idea but lacking interest, we need pin it on the front line like (Schedule, Video, Clips )
or at least let us remove the (Recent highlights and uploads, All videos) sections without unpublish them so the highlight shows only in the collections
it will be easier to the viewer like this (recent podcast, clips, collection 1, collection 2, collection 3 )

not a fan but i can live with it (user friendly problems) i dont like going into "videos" to get to clips. would like the return of the clips shortcut. i liked before being able to close the player rather than having it in the upper background.

I would love it if there was a search bar for clips on the streamer page searching for clips remains difficult, the scroll function is also not fun if you have a lot of clips

history When I watch a video, I want it to have one past posts category (watching history)
to continue from the video of my stay on the desktop site. I request this to be added to the upper left corner as well.2 votes -
Annoying video popup The Video that pops up when you open up a twitch page i find really annoying please make it optional as when they are streaming and i wanna watch a vod i cant even mute it. also because of vod muting can end up browsing though vods to try and find a video to be annoyingly interrupted by 2 audio tracks.

More sorting options in video searches. Putting more options in the video/clips searches. So in addition to "Most viewed" maybe add a "Newest - Oldest" and vice versa sort function in videos. It would make it easier to go back and look for a clip/highlight/etc. Especially for mods.

Customize the offline recommendation cards I'd like to be able to customize, what and in what order appears at the top of my channel page. I'm talking about last broadcast ("check out this stream from x ago"), autohosted channel ("while X is offline, check out"), and recent highlight ("X made a highlight of a recent stream"), which you can cycle through.
In my case, the thing that pops up as the first item is my last broadcast, but I'd actually prefer promoting the latest highlight as the first thing people see when they go to my channel.
Also, I feel like there is a way…
