How to Turn a Twitch Stream or VOD into LinkedIn Clips
To share highlights from your Twitch stream or VOD on LinkedIn, you’ll need to reformat and caption short vertical clips. Here’s how to do it efficiently and how Vidulk can help automate the process.

1. Download Your Twitch Stream or VOD
Start by downloading your Twitch VOD or stream recording. You can do this directly from your Twitch dashboard if you're a Twitch Partner, Affiliate, or have VODs enabled, or use OBS to record your stream locally for higher quality and easier access.
2. Understand LinkedIn Video Specs
- Maximum length: 15 minutes per video
- Aspect ratios: LinkedIn accepts vertical (9:16, 4:5), square (1:1), and landscape (16:9) formats
- Resolution: From 256x144 up to 4096x2304; 1080x1920 (vertical) is optimal for mobile
- Captions: LinkedIn can auto-generate captions during upload, but uploading your own ensures accuracy
3. Clip and Reframe for Vertical Format
Twitch clips are horizontal (16:9), but LinkedIn supports vertical. For best results, reframe your content: split-screen with your face-cam and gameplay stacked, or focus on the most engaging area. Manual editing tools work, but this is time-consuming.
4. Automate Highlight Creation with Vidulk
Vidulk’s AI Clipper (iOS and Android) streamlines this process. Paste your Twitch VOD or recording into the app. Vidulk automatically detects the best moments, reframes them into vertical 9:16 or 4:5 clips, and adds captions. You can export LinkedIn-ready videos in minutes instead of editing manually.
5. Upload to LinkedIn
- Go to LinkedIn and start a new post
- Attach your Vidulk-exported video
- Enable captions if you didn’t burn them in
- Add a description and post
Your Twitch highlights are now optimized for LinkedIn’s feed and professional audience.
Vidulk's AI clipper (free to start, iOS + Android) finds the best moments in a long video and exports captioned vertical clips sized for the destination.
