1. Start watching
Open Live clips from the top navigation, then Live session. Choose Save clips to, enter a public live link or channel name, and select Start watching. Twitch, Kick, YouTube Live and TikTok LIVE are supported.
Loaderly receives video only after you start the session; it cannot recover earlier moments. This runs on your device and uses network, temporary disk space and resources for playback and saving.
2. Paste a link or enter a username
Paste a complete live link
Open Live clips and paste the live link; Loaderly detects its platform. For a username alone, choose the platform yourself. Set the save folder and start watching. Only moments received after the session starts can be saved.
More details and options
A supported link selects its platform automatically, including mobile links, YouTube watch/live/short links and TikTok share links. You can paste a link with or without https://.
The Platform control becomes available again when you enter a username. For a username with or without @, choose its platform yourself. Platform recognition checks the link format; a private, offline or restricted stream can still be unavailable.
3. Save different durations
Choose Save the last: 15 or 30 seconds, or 1, 2, 5 or 10 minutes. Only the available history can be saved. Duration, quality & storage controls the rolling buffer, which defaults to five minutes and supports up to ten minutes, with a 256 MB to 2 GB storage budget.
A smaller budget can shorten the available history. One stream and two saves can run at once. Saved moments remain in your folder; open Edit or Arrange game & camera to continue.
4. Customize save shortcuts
Assign a duration to each shortcut
Open Save shortcuts, record a key combination and choose its duration. Save the shortcuts before starting the session. Give the buffer enough time to contain that duration. These shortcuts can save moments while another app is focused, so choose keys that do not conflict with your other apps.
More details and options
Stop an active session before changing shortcuts. Open Save shortcuts and enable them. Use Add shortcut, record a combination, choose its duration and Save shortcuts. For example, use CtrlShiftF9 for 15 seconds and CtrlShiftF10 for one minute.
Check for a conflict with another app before using these examples. Settings stay on this device. Each shortcut saves its own duration; it does not change the button duration.
Shortcuts work outside Loaderly during an active session. In From OBS, enable Use my saved Live clips shortcuts before starting source buffers. Increase the buffer duration if it is shorter than your longest shortcut.
5. Preview, stop and reconnect
Pause preview stops playback while reception continues. Latest received returns to the newest available video; platform delay still applies. Stop session ends reception, and saved files remain.
Reconnecting starts a fresh buffer so separate periods are not silently joined. Closing a window can leave the app running; quitting Loaderly stops the session. If playback stalls, check the connection and current status, then retry the session.
The available duration shows what can actually be saved.
