# Your stream, cut into Shorts on your own accounts. > Everpop clips the VODs you own — from your creator dashboard or a Drive folder — and publishes Shorts to YouTube, Instagram and Facebook accounts you connect. HTML version: https://everpop.app/streamer-vods-to-shorts Everpop clips the VODs you own — the file you export from your creator dashboard or drop in a Drive folder — and publishes the Shorts to the YouTube, Instagram and Facebook accounts you connect. TikTok gets a ready-to-post draft in your inbox, and going public on TikTok stays your tap. No pasted links, nothing downloaded from Twitch, Kick or YouTube, and no clipper standing between you and your own channel. ## Twitch already gives you the file. You need no third-party downloader for your own Twitch VOD: turn on Store past broadcasts (Settings, then Stream) before you go live; then, in your Creator Dashboard, open Video Producer under Content and download the past broadcast or Highlight from its menu. Upload that file to Everpop, or drop it in a linked Google Drive folder. Past broadcasts are kept only for a limited time that depends on your account type, so download the VOD, or Highlight the moments you want, while it is still there. For a single short moment, Twitch's own Clips may be all you need. [Twitch VOD to YouTube Shorts, step by step](https://everpop.app/blog/how-to-clip-a-twitch-vod-into-youtube-shorts) ## The action and the HUD, readable in one tall frame. A raw session is wide and busy; a Short is tall and small. The Gameplay Cut keeps the action and the HUD readable in one 9:16 frame — the see-it page shows it on a raw World of Warcraft session, straight out of the engine with no manual edit. - **Captions that survive a HUD** — Boxed and clean caption looks that stay legible over busy footage, timed to the source speech. Translated captions follow whole phrases. - **Arena style loadouts** — Speedrun, Clutch, Stadium and Commentary — looks tuned for fast footage, equipped before a render in one tap. - **Every aspect ratio** — 9:16 for Shorts, Reels and TikTok; 16:9 for a YouTube highlight; 1:1 and 4:5 for feeds. ## Everpop publishes only to accounts you connect and own. Publishing runs through the official YouTube, Meta and TikTok APIs. Everpop never downloads from Twitch, Kick or YouTube: you bring the VOD file, or point Everpop at the Drive folder it lives in, and every clip goes out under your name to your channels. ## One VOD is one video. A VOD counts as one video off your monthly allowance, up to 32 GB per file on Pro (4 GB on Free, 8 GB on Starter) — trim a marathon to the session you want before uploading. Starter takes 8 videos a month with 3 clips from each; Pro takes 30 with up to 10 from each, plus hands-free auto-posting. ## See what each Short did. Eligible YouTube Shorts come back with 48-hour and 7-day numbers from the YouTube Analytics API — views, average view percentage, subscribers gained — and, once your channel has measured history, the prediction Everpop recorded before publishing. ## That is a campaign, and it has its own door. Everpop clips footage whose owner authorized it — your own, or a sponsor's, attested at ingest. If you clip for a pay-per-view campaign, Campaign Mode publishes to your own accounts and produces the measured report the sponsor reads.

Download it from Twitch itself (Store past broadcasts must be on before you go live; the download is in Video Producer) and upload the file. Everpop then cuts vertical clips and publishes the Shorts to the YouTube channel you connect, with your tap or hands-free on Pro. It never downloads from Twitch, Kick or YouTube. ### Can I paste a Twitch, Kick or YouTube link? No — by design. Everpop never downloads from those platforms. Export your own VOD from your creator dashboard and upload the file, or link the Drive folder it lives in. ### How do I get my VOD as a file? Twitch, Kick and YouTube let you download your own past broadcasts from their creator dashboards. Drop that file into Everpop, or into a Drive folder you link. ### What if the VOD is bigger than 32 GB? Trim it to the session you want first — one file up to 32 GB on Pro is one video. A trimmed session also gives the picker a tighter field to choose from. ### Does it work on gameplay with a full HUD? Yes. The Gameplay Cut keeps the action and the HUD readable in one 9:16 frame; the see-it page shows a real render on a raw World of Warcraft session. ### What does the free first video include? Your first video is free — up to 3 clips, no card. ## Related - [See the Gameplay Cut on a real session](https://everpop.app/see-it) - [Campaign Mode](https://everpop.app/campaigns) - [Twitch VOD to YouTube Shorts, without a downloader](https://everpop.app/blog/how-to-clip-a-twitch-vod-into-youtube-shorts) - [Clip gaming videos without losing the action](https://everpop.app/blog/gaming-clips-to-shorts-without-losing-the-action) - [Turn a livestream into YouTube Shorts](https://everpop.app/blog/turn-a-livestream-into-youtube-shorts) Whop, Vyro, ClipAffiliates, Twitch, Kick, YouTube, Instagram, Facebook, TikTok, Google Drive, Riverside, StreamYard and Zoom are trademarks of their owners; none of them is affiliated with or endorses Everpop.
