Why did Find moments find nothing?

Clipr's Find moments went through the stream and nothing stood out as a Short. The page tells you "It was not counted.": a finished run with no moments is given back, including your free stream.

Common reasons

  • The stream has no chat or viewer clips, and nothing in the audio stood out.
  • The stream's audio is muted.
  • "We went through the liveliest parts of this stream and nothing stood out as a Short."
  • For an upload: "Nothing in this video stood out as a Short."

If you press Find moments again on an empty run, you see the same result. It doesn't run again.

When a run fails instead

A run that fails is never counted. The message tells you why:

  • "The stream's chat could not be read. Try again later."
  • "The VOD could not be read. It may have been deleted or made private."
  • "What was said could not be transcribed. Try again later."
  • "Finding moments did not finish. It was not counted; try again."

When it won't start

  • "This month's streams are used up.": you have used your streams for the month. See when your allowance resets.
  • "Streams up to 10 hours for now.": see streams longer than 10 hours.
  • "The VOD could not be found on Twitch. It may have been deleted." (or Kick): the past broadcast is gone.
  • "That VOD could not be found on twitch. It may be private, deleted or subscriber-only." (or kick): Clipr can't open that VOD link.

More questions

Did I lose my free stream?

No. A finished run with no moments is given back, and a failed run never counts.

Can I still make a Short from this stream?

You can paste a clip from the stream into Studio and edit it yourself. See make a Short.
