Customize the settings for your clips

Set preferences to create clips that fit your style and needs

Written by Becca Mintz

The new settings section lets you pick your default preferences for making clips. You can always tweak each clip later, adjusting the look and style to fit what you want.


How to access your settings

From your home screen, click Clips, then click the gear icon next to the header. You can also jump straight there using this link.


Automations

You have two options for automatically generating clips: Autopilot and Live Clipping. Choose one or run both at the same time for full coverage across your stream.

Autopilot

Turn on Autopilot to automatically create clips from each stream's recording after it ends. If you prefer to manually generate clips, you can toggle this off.


Autopilot applies to streams over 10 minutes and is available on all plans.

Live Clipping

Turn on Live Clipping to automatically create clips while you're still streaming. Clips are generated in 10-minute segments covering the first 30 minutes of your stream, so you can share highlights to social media without waiting for it to end.

Live Clipping is available on the 250 Clips plan, and each clip counts toward your monthly credit allowance.


💡 Need to live clip more than the first 30 minutes? Contact our sales team.

Live Clipping is configured here at the workspace level, but you can override it for individual events or streams, even when it’s enabled globally. Toggle it on or off directly in Studio or through the event scheduling flow.

Autoposting for Live Clipping

With Autoposting enabled, eligible clips are automatically published to your selected channels as they’re generated — no manual review-and-post step required. Configure channels, a minimum virality score, a max clips-per-batch limit, and a caption template inside Live Clipping settings.


General Settings

Configure the core clip generation settings, including the source language, the number of clips to generate, and the desired clip duration.

Language

Select Auto-detect to let the system identify the language in your recording, or choose a language from the menu to set it as the default.

You can see our full list of supported languages here.

Number of clips

Choose how many clips you'd like to automatically generate from each recording:

  • 1-2 clips

  • 3-5 clips

  • 5-10 clips

  • 10-15 clips

💡 This setting defines the maximum number of clips that can be generated, not a guaranteed amount. When fewer standout moments are available, only the strongest clips will be created to help ensure higher-quality results.

Duration

Choose a clip length range, from quick highlights to longer segments, based on your platform and audience preferences:

  • >30 seconds

  • 30-60 seconds

  • 1-2 minutes

  • 2-5 minutes


Generation Style

Configure your clip's visual style, template, captions, and orientation. These settings apply to all future clip generations. To start over with the original settings, click Use default settings in the top right.

Default template

Pick a visual style preset to define the look and feel of your clips.

💡 The Default Template dropdown displays templates you've previously saved in the Clips Editor. To add more options, customize a template in the Clips Editor and save it; it will then be available for future projects.

Captions

Toggle on to add synchronized captions as an overlay for your viewers to follow along.

  • Emojis - Add expressive emojis to make your clips more dynamic.


Intro title

Starts each clip with a short title to introduce your brand or message.

Remove silences

Cuts silent gaps from your clips for more engaging playback

Reframing

Automatically adjusts framing based on your chosen orientation.

Orientation

Choose the default orientation for your clips:

  • Vertical - ideal for mobile platforms like Instagram, TikTok, or Reels.

  • Horizontal - great for widescreen formats like YouTube or Facebook.

  • Square - a versatile format that works well across most platforms.

  • Original - keeps your clips in the same orientation as the original source video.

Focus

Choose to track a single speaker or frame everyone on screen

Layouts

Select your preferred layouts for your clips.
