Clips, live streams or videos of the channel with title, description (videos), date, views, thumbnails and the streamer as the author. Videos play through Twitch’s player; they are not downloaded. Twitch avatar links expire, so avatars are cached locally.

The token is renewed every hour while the site’s cron runs. **Edit** on a saved account validates the token and shows the login it belongs to; **Reconnect** logs in again.
