WHAT IS CLIPSEY?

Clipsey is the best twitch clip downloader, and the absolute easiest way to
download twitch clips on the web! Just copy and paste the Twitch clip URL that
you want to save to your computer into the text box above and hit the 'Download
Clip' button. We'll grab the clip's video file and make it available for you to
download. It's just that easy!


IS CLIPSEY FREE TO USE?

Yes! Clipsey is absolutely free to use. We plan to introduce some non-intrusive
ads soon to help us make some money to offset the cost of maintaining the site
and the clip downloading server. We want to make Clipsey the best twitch clip
downloader on the internet, so we plan to keep it free to use! We'll never make
it a pay to use tool, we pinky promise!


HELP! I'M GETTING AN ERROR THAT SAYS "ERROR: THAT IS NOT A VALID CLIP URL"?

The most common reason the downloader will give you this error is usually due to
the wrong type of URL being input into the text box. Clipsey supports two types
of Twitch URLs:

1. Clip URLs from the clip tab of the streamer's page (example:
https://www.twitch.tv/clintstevens/clip/EnticingConcernedAlbatrossMrDestructoid)

2. Clip URLs from clips.twitch.tv subdomain (example:
https://clips.twitch.tv/EnticingConcernedAlbatrossMrDestructoid).

If you are getting errors, please double check the Twitch clip URL you are
using. There might be a typo, an unecessary white space, or Twitch may have
deleted the clip for whatever reason.


HELP! I'M GETTING AN ERROR THAT SAYS "ERROR: THERE WAS A PROBLEM GETTING THE
CLIP. PLEASE TRY AGAIN."?

This error can come up for a wide variety of reasons:

1. There might be an issue with your internet connection. Double check to make
sure your connection is working.

2. A third-party ad block extension or third-party script is interfering with
the way Clipsey gets the clip download link for you from the Twitch API. Please
disabling these third-party tools installed on your browser temporarily and try
again.

3. There are too many people using Clipsey at the same time and our server is
overloaded or running into Twitch API issues. Try again in a couple of seconds
or minutes and see if that solves the problem.

If trying all of the above still isn't fixing your issue with downloading clips,
it might also be that Twitch recently updated their API. That means we would
have to update Clipsey to get it to work correctly with the new version of their
API.

Please contact us and let us know about any issues you run into so we can fix
the downloader and make sure it is working for everyone 100% as soon as
possible!


IS THERE A CLIPSEY CHROME EXTENSION?

We've received a lot of requests for this, and we hear you! We have finally
created a Chrome extension so you can directly download twitch clips from any
Twitch page! You can download it here:
https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/twitch-clip-downloader-ae/deopknpmicacphpkjnekiodlocjehohn

Here's how it works: When you are on Twitch on a page with a clip, just click on
the extension button on your task bar. It will then open up this site with the
clip's video download link ready to go so you can save it to your computer.

The extension also adds functionality and injects a "Download Clip" button on
all Twitch pages that show clips. That means you won't have to copy and paste
clip URLs between tabs anymore! All you will have to do is click on the
"Download Clip" button under the clip and it will open up this site with the
clip's video download link ready to go. It's going to be that much more easier,
faster, and simple to get your favorite clips downloaded! POGGERS


ARE THERE ANY OTHER WAYS ON HOW TO DOWNLOAD TWITCH CLIPS?

Yes, there are many ways to download clips! You don't have to use Clipsey to
download them (even if it is the easiest way).

Unfortunately, Twitch doesn't give its users a way to download any clip they
want directly from their site, so we'll have to get our hands a bit "dirty".

We'll have to use your browser's developer console to get the clip's video URL
from the clip's page on Twitch. Sounds a bit intimidating, right? Don't worry,
it isn't that hard.

The following instructions are how to do this on the Chrome browser. It's a very
similar process if you are using Firefox or Safari.

1. Open up your browser's developer console. Open the menu in the upper-right
corner of the browser window and select "More Tools". Then select "Developer
Tools".

2. The developer console window will appear. Go to the "Elements" tab. It is
close to the top-left corner of the developer console window.

3. Click on the "Element Selector" tool. It is the icon close to the top-left
corner of the developer console window. It looks like a box with an arrow
pointing at it.

4. Hover over the clip's video player. Once you hover over it, it will appear to
have a light blue overlay. Click on the clip's video player.

5. The "Elements" window will now fill up with code. You should see a line of
code that starts with "<video>". Right click on the video URL link inside that
line of code and select "Copy Link Address...".

6. Open a new tab and paste that video URL link that you just copied. You will
now see the clip playing. Right click on the clip and select "Save Video As..."
to save it on your computer.

And there you have it! The manual and messy way of saving a clip without using
Clipsey. If you are having problems with the instructions below, we've recorded
a video for you that guides you on how to do it right here:

IS THERE A WAY TO CONVERT A CLIP TO MP4 FORMAT?

That is already the default file type! When you use Clipsey and you download the
clip you want, it will download it as an mp4 file. You can also use our specific
twitch to mp4 download page to do this.


WAIT, WHY DO PEOPLE EVEN WANT TO DOWNLOAD CLIPS ANYWAYS?

There are many reasons people would want to save and download their favorite
streamer's clips! Here are some of the ones that we know of:

1. Saving clips to make a backup before the streamer or Twitch removes it.

2. Saving clips so they can be viewed offline. Maybe if the person wants to
watch the clip on a trip with no internet access or on a device that has no
internet access.

3. Saving clips so they can be used to create Twitch clip complition videos. It
is a lot easier and faster to download clips using Clipsey, and compilcation
videos are very popular on YouTube. Streamers even make them themselves for
their own YouTube channels!

4. Saving clips so they can use them and edit them for their own personal use.

I'm sure there are many other ways saved clips are used, but these are just a
few of the most popular reasons why we know people like to download them.


DOES CLIPSEY COLLECT AND SAVE ANY OF MY PERSONAL DATA?

In order for Clipsey to get the clip download link for you, we have to make a
request from this website to our servers, which communicates with the Twitch
API. When making a clip download request from this website, it sends information
about your browser (such as the name of the browser you are using and your IP
address) to our servers. The only personal data that we temporarily store on our
servers is your IP address.

We temporarily store your IP address in the case that someone abuses the service
and is trying to overload our servers on purpose for any sort of reason. We need
their IP address information so that we can block them from using Clipsey and to
make sure it works correctly for everyone else.

No other sort of personal information is stored on our servers.


WHAT IS TWITCH?

Are you ready for a quick history lesson? Here we go!

Twitch is a live streaming video platform that launched in 2011. It was
originally the gaming section of the general video broadcasting website and
platform, Justin.tv, which was itself a pioneer in online video streaming on the
web.

Justin.tv was started in 2007 by Justin Kan. Originally, it was a single channel
featuring Justin, who streamed his life 24/7, becoming the original IRL
streamer. It was sort of like the movie The Truman Show!

Justin streamed by wearing a webcam attached to a hat, which was hooked up to a
laptop in a backpack that he would also wear. He streamed his life 24/7, aside
from his bathroom breaks. While streaming, he also interacted with his viewers
via a chat system. Really similar to IRL streamers on Twitch today, right?

His website concept eventually attracted a lot of attention by the media, and he
was interviewed by major media outlets such as the Today Show. This led to more
people hearing about Justin.tv and that is how the website started to grow.

After a couple of months, Justin became tired of broadcasting his life 24/7 and
decided to change the website into a platform where other people can set up
their own streams. For the following years, Justin.tv slowly grew as more and
more people decided to start streaming in various different categories such as
lifecasting (now known on Twitch as IRL streams), sports, music, news, tech, and
gaming.

Out of all of these categories and streamers on the platform, the gaming
category was growing the fastest and becoming the biggest. Many of the new
streamers that joined Justin.tv went into gaming and most viewers on Justin.tv
were watching them, compared to the other categories.

The gaming category became so big and popular, that in 2011, it was finally
spun-off from Justin.tv to become its own website and entity. That website was
named Twitch.tv.

After a couple of years of explosive growth, in 2014, the owners of Justin.tv
shut it down to completely focus on Twitch. A couple of months later, Twitch was
purchased by Amazon for $970 million USD! By 2015, Twitch had grown to
astronomical levels and had more than 100 million viewers per month watching
various streamers and channels on the platform.

Right now, Twitch currently ranks in the top 30 of the world's most popular
websites. As of 2020, it has over 3 million broadcasters monthly, 15 million
daily active users, and an average of 1.4 million concurrent users. What was
once a small experiment for fun turned into a huge media platform.

Streamers (the term for broadcasters on Twitch) typically stream live gameplay
of video games, but the site has also branched out to include other categories
such as real life activities, creative arts, programming, music, talk shows, and
live events.

So basically, Justin.tv was started. It was a general live broadcasting
platform. The gaming category on Justin.tv grew the biggest, so it was spun off
into Twitch.tv. Justin.tv eventually closed to focus on Twitch.tv. Twitch.tv has
grown so big, that it now has many general categories aside from gaming. The
website has come full circle!
