XB1 runs

Uh. Hey guys.

Today, i faced a problem, and it's kinda something about BP runs done on XB1.

You see, as far as i'm concerned, there's no real way to highlight your runs on Twitch, and the only option that i found is to make a lots of clips. I don't really have any experience w/ consoles, the only option i have right now is to accept any XB1 run, that has some footage, based on clips. I can't really tell people to fuck off from the LB's, only because they don't own a PS3/PS4/PC, nor i can't tell you guys to buy a PC to highlight your own runs. The runs below were witnessed live by me, but because we know that Twitch automatically removes the recordings after 14d. ,it's something i want to discuss you with.

Current way of solving the problem for XB1 players would be showing three clips from the run, taken from the start, middle and the end of the run, on top of attaching the recording of the run. I know it's not a perfect one, but still something that will work for now.

I need a solution that will work for both console players that do not own a PC, and will preserve the current way the leaderboards are done.

Anderson is right if u stream ur run through twitch or mixer on the xbox ur run will automatically be in a past broadcast (on twitch at least not to sure about mixer dont use it much) then u just need to go onto ur account be that on pc smartphone or a hamster powered microwave and access the past broadcast video hit those 3 dots beside share and u have a highlight option this will take u to the highlight manager page where u can put a start and end point to capture only the run. like anderson said highlighted videos dont get deleted so anybody that does this has 14 days to highlight or tough luck

edit: if there is no video evidence e.g. video no longer available after 14d coz its been deleted that unfortunatly its an invalid run and should be removed unless the runner can provide the video again somehow

The problem is that some players have a console, but don't have the PC, while Twitch App might not have the highlight functions. Never used it (have very old 2.3 Android phone), so maybe that's the way it is. Twitch saves all broadcasts for 14 days (if you put the check in settings), and then they're gone. Eh.

im sure they have access to a library so the have access to a PC ergo can highlight runs. and if they can submit runs here then they must have some form of browser
