ClipScoutby QuantaByte

Turn a Twitch VOD into clips your chat already picked.

A four hour stream has a few minutes that matter, and your chat marked them for you. ClipScout reads the chat replay alongside the audio, finds those spikes, and turns them into captioned vertical clips.

How to make clips from a Twitch stream

  1. 1

    Finish your stream

    Twitch keeps the broadcast as a VOD on your channel when past broadcasts are switched on in your stream settings.

  2. 2

    Paste the VOD link

    Copy the link to the VOD and paste it into ClipScout. Streams up to four hours are accepted. You can also upload the recording file instead.

  3. 3

    The scout reads chat and audio

    It counts chat messages through the stream, finds the bursts, and matches them with loud moments and fast action. Hello and goodbye floods at the start and end are ignored.

  4. 4

    Edit and export

    Stack gameplay over your facecam, trim, restyle the captions, add your logo, and export a vertical MP4.

Twitch clipping questions

How is this different from Twitch's own clips?
A Twitch clip is a short piece of the stream as it was broadcast, in landscape. ClipScout finds the moments for you across the whole VOD and reshapes them into vertical video with captions for other platforms.
Does it work on streams where I barely talk?
Yes. When there is little speech, the picks come from chat activity, audio peaks, and scene changes instead of the transcript.
Can I clip someone else's stream?
Only with their permission. You confirm you have the right to use a video before ClipScout processes it.
How long does a long VOD take?
It depends on the length. Long streams are fetched at 720p to keep the wait down, and the clips appear together when the scout finishes.
