Right now, a limited number of channels have the clips feature turned on for their channel. According to YouTube support page, " Clips is currently in limited alpha. So, when is this feature rolling out? Although YouTube hasn’t given any specific date regarding this feature, alpha testing has already begun, with all users being able to generate clips out of a select few livestream videos and non live videos.
PS: It appears the Clips feature is not working properly when we embed it, currently Clips feature is working fine when viewing on YouTube directly.
Here's an example one Clip that we created in our test: A dedicated tab has also been assigned to house all clips that users have made. These clips can either be posted as videos or shared/forwarded on social media platforms, or plain texting as URL, even. Then all one has to do is add a title, and click Share Clip, allowing YouTube to generate a URL for one’s viewing and sharing pleasure. Clicking or tapping on the icon will allow users to select the timestamps in which their favorite moment occurred. A scissors icon under the video denotes the ability to make clips. Speaking of interfaces, how does Clips show up on the YouTube space? Well, they’re created during a viewing session of someone’s stream or on any non live video. Due to the ability of these innocuous, under one minute, videos to trend online, it seems like adding an easier interface for users to play around with is a must for any livestreaming service. Due to the popularity of short clips from livestreams, Twitch itself has also had Clips for its user-base since a while now.

While certainly limited in scope, such a time limit is sufficient in allowing users to share lovable highlights and moments from, say, their favorite YouTuber streaming Animal Crossing. Providing YouTube’s vast user-base with a cropping feature built into the video-streaming application’s interface, allowing viewers to crop from 5 up to 60 seconds worth of live-streaming content. This new feature, while not fixing the former, certainly helps with the latter. Exacerbating difficulty is the fact that most traditional livestreams don’t necessarily have timestamps to them. The issue was that it used to be an arduous task to manually crop a video apart until that one hidden gem was located. Short format clips from livestreams have already gained a lot of traction from the YouTube community, as users publish clips of particularly humorous moments from such videos. With livestreams becoming more and more prevalent on YouTube, extending beyond the realm of gaming to Qs and As, charity fundraisers, and even music, Clips feels like the natural next step in the process. Clips you create show up in your Library." Want to create your own clips? Watch any video that allows clipping, then tap Clip below the video. And according to official description "A clip is a short, looping part of a video or live stream.
YouTube is introducing a new feature entitled “Clips” to its interface, allowing users to make short videos from memorable occasions in livestreams.
