1. What are AI Clips, and why should I use them?
Restream's AI automatically turns your streams and videos into viral moments. Posting them daily is smart as platforms push short-form content and give you up to 4X more views. With our AI choosing highlights, framing, and adding captions, you save hours on editing.
2. Are there any requirements for getting AI Clips from my videos?
AI Clips currently only work with recordings of streams made with Restream Studio and uploaded videos. Additionally, clips can only be generated from videos that are longer than 10 minutes and shorter than 3 hours.
3. Why do I have to wait before I can download my clip?
The clip previews you see on Restream are low resolution, allowing for much faster viewing and editing. Once you edit or export your clip, we will process it and turn it into Full HD. This change takes some extra time but ensures the best possible quality for the clips you’ll be posting on social media!
4. Why is my clip preview in low resolution? What resolution will the final clip be in?
The preview of your clip is meant to give you a sneak peek at the content we’ve generated for you. A lower resolution helps provide you with easy and quick access to your video. But don’t worry; once you edit or export your clip, you will be able to download it in Full HD.
5. How can I search for a specific part of my video and generate a clip with it?
When you access your generated clips, you’ll see a “Generate New” button in the top right corner of your screen. Click it and enter the topic you’d like to focus on, then let our AI generate a new clip for you.
6. Can I post my clips on my preferred platforms directly from Restream?
Posting your clips directly from Restream is currently available for YouTube Shorts. Support for TikTok and Facebook Reels is also coming soon!
In the meantime, you can download your exported clips and individually upload them to each platform. Our team is working hard to introduce even more sharing options.
7. Where should I post my clips?
We recommend posting your clips on as many platforms as you can and would like to. You can focus on platforms where your audience is most active or where you’d like to grow.
Some of the many platforms that support short-form clips are:
TikTok
YouTube
Instagram
X
Facebook
LinkedIn
8. Will AI Clips work with encoder streams?
Yes, support for encoder streams is coming soon!
9. Will my final clips still be stored even after the recording they came from expires?
Your final clips are not removed unless you delete them. You can access them by going to your video storage and clicking the Saved AI Clips tab. However, once a recording has expired, you can no longer generate new clips from it; you can only access the ones you've already rendered.
10. Can I schedule clips to go live?
There isn’t a built-in way to schedule an exported clip to go live at this time. However, you can download your clip, upload it to your video storage in Restream, and schedule it to go live like any other pre-recorded video or playlist.
