Offer clipping to your subscribers
Switch Clip on for a plan so subscribers can grab and download up to 30 seconds of what they’re watching.
Clip puts a Clip button, a pair of scissors, in your player. A viewer whose plan includes it can save a moment from a live event, an on-demand title, an episode or a live channel and download it as an MP4 video. Fans share a real highlight instead of a shaky screen recording, and because Clip is a plan switch, you decide which tier gets it.
What viewers can do
| Watching | How the viewer picks the moment | Length |
|---|---|---|
| A live stream | Taps Last 10 s, Last 15 s or Last 30 s. The stream keeps playing while they choose. | 10, 15 or 30 seconds |
| A recording | Drags start and end handles along the player’s own progress bar. | Up to 30 seconds — the handles stop there |
The clip is prepared in the background. The viewer can close the message and keep watching; when it’s ready they get a Download button and a link to My Clips.
Turn Clip on for a plan
- 1Install Clip

- 2Open the plan
Go to Studio → Management → Subscription Plans and edit the plan that should include clipping.
- 3Switch on Includes Clip feature
Turn on Includes Clip feature and save. Your public pricing page now lists Create & download clips for that plan.
- 1Decide about viewers without a plan
To let every signed-in viewer clip, go to System → Settings → Content → Viewer Access and turn on Clip feature under Without a subscription. Leave it off to keep clipping a paid perk.
- 2Test with a viewer account
Sign in to your site as a subscriber on that plan, open a live event and press Clip. Then open My Clips from the menu and download the result.

The My Clips page
Every clip a viewer makes lands on their My Clips page: a grid with search, Rename, re-download and delete. If Reels is installed and posting is open to them, each clip also has Post as reel. Clips belong to the viewer — they never appear in your Media Library.
