Clips

The clips module lets chat users capture and save moments from the live stream using a browser-based clip editor.

This is a built-in module that ships with Owlbot and is enabled by default. It requires ffmpeg to be installed. If ffmpeg is not available, the module will not load.

Quick Start

While a stream is live, create a clip:

!clip

Owlbot sends you a private message with a link to the clip editor. Open the link, use the trim slider to select the part you want, optionally add a title, and click Create Clip. Once processing finishes, you're redirected to the finished clip page.

Browse all saved clips:

!clips

Commands

Command Aliases Usage Permission Description
!clip !clip Everyone Create a clip from the current stream.
!clips !clips Everyone Send a link to the clips list page.
!delclip !delclip <id> Moderator Delete a clip by ID.

!clip and !clips have a 15-second cooldown.

Web UI

The module serves a clips list page at /owlbot/clips/list showing all saved clips in a grid with thumbnails, titles, and creation dates. The !clips command sends a link to this page in chat. Each clip has its own page at /owlbot/clips/clip/<id> with a video player, title, creator, and creation date.
