Mark it, name it, file it.

In and out points on the graph or the player, categories, naming templates and keyboard shortcuts, built for cutting dozens of clips from one stream.

Drag-to-clip on the graph

The graph doubles as a timeline. Drag from second N to second M and a clip bracket appears on top of the chat activity. The selected window highlights so you can see what you captured at a glance.

Fine-tune the start and end with second-level inputs in the sidebar, or set them from the player with keyboard shortcuts. No nudging playheads pixel by pixel.

Categories and naming templates

A clip without a category is hard to find later. Voding has categories with color codes, so you can split clips into funny moments, big plays, reactions and whatever else fits your channel.

Naming templates fill in placeholders like streamer name, publish date, clip index and start time. Run a template across a category and every clip is named consistently before export.

Export when you are ready

Each clip renders to MP4 on our servers, ready to download from the editor or the Clips page. Renders snap to the nearest keyframe, so a clip can start a moment before the point you marked. Pair it with a chat overlay for a finished composite.

Compilation reel, a walkthrough

Step one: open a fresh VoD and go through the Moments list. Step two: click each moment and watch the ten seconds around the peak. Turn the keepers into clips and adjust the start and end where needed.

Step three: tag each kept clip into a category, say "best moments of last stream". Step four: open the Clips page, filter by that category, select the clips and choose "Make timeline". The timeline maker lines the clips up in order. Drag to reorder and drop the ones you do not want. Step five: export it to DaVinci Resolve, or render the clips and cut them together yourself.

Category strategy for a channel you edit weekly

A clean category system is the difference between "I made fifty clips and now I cannot find anything" and "I am building a library". The setup that scales is one category per content type (funny, big plays, reactions, drama, technical) plus one per recurring theme (subathon week, anniversary stream, charity stream). Color codes are visual, so you can scan the Clips page and see the spread of your last month at a glance.

Naming templates handle the repetitive work. Set a template like "{streamer}-{category}-{date}-{index}" and every clip in that category gets a consistent name. Every file name already says who, what kind, when, and which of the day's entries it is, and you can search for it from your OS after you download.

About clip creation

How do I create a clip?

Drag horizontally on the chat activity graph, or set in and out points from the player. The clip opens in the sidebar where you can adjust start, end, name and category.

What is a category?

A reusable label. Common ones are funny moments, big plays, reactions and compilation. Categories make it easy to build a compilation reel later.

Can I rename clips in bulk?

Yes. Naming templates take placeholders for streamer name, VoD publish date, clip index and start time. Apply one to a category in a click.

Where are the rendered clip files stored?

On Voding under your account, downloadable as MP4. The Clips page lists every rendered clip across every VoD.
