How to save NBA clips on Steam Deck
- Copy the post linkSwitch to Desktop Mode, open x.com in a browser (Firefox is available from the Discover store), open the post and choose Share › Copy link.
- Open SaveXClips in FirefoxGo to savexclips.com in Firefox on your Steam Deck. Any modern browser works; Firefox is just the default.
- Paste and press DownloadPaste the link into the box at the top of this page. SaveXClips finds the video and lists every available quality.
- Save the fileClick the quality you want. The browser downloads the file to your home folder’s Downloads directory.
Which quality to choose
Pick 1080p or 720p. Fast motion shows compression quickly, and short highlight clips stay small anyway (a 30-second 1080p clip is usually 5–15 MB).
The Steam Deck’s 800p screen is matched perfectly by the 720p version, which saves space on the SSD.
Where the files go on Steam Deck
In Desktop Mode, downloads go to /home/deck/Downloads, reachable from the Dolphin file manager.
A downloaded clip can become a custom startup movie once converted to WebM and copied to ~/.steam/root/config/uioverrides/movies.
NBA audio as MP3
Legendary commentary calls go viral on their own. Use the MP3 option to keep just the audio of a famous NBA moment.
Audio files play in Desktop Mode with any installed player, such as Elisa or VLC from the Discover store.
Download responsibly
Match footage usually belongs to leagues and broadcasters. Saving clips for personal viewing is common; re-uploading full highlights can get accounts struck.
