The replays tab was probably the easiest to make, as it's essentially a list of the recorded replays with buttons to let the user:
Watch the replay
Download the replay
Delete the replay
Replays will automatically be stored on another server until they are downloaded, and the best thing to do would be to let users watch the replays without the need to download them for the first week or so, then they would get deleted from the server, which then doesn't let the user download them anymore. The user can download them at any time in that week however, and keep them forever like a normal video file, and they will show up in that list of replays. The idea of downloading the replays is so the user has a permanent way of accessing it, and also lets them send it to friends, etc.

I made a "Replay settings" button so anyone who might be confused to where to change settings with the replays, or didn't know you could, will see it and find out what settings they can change, which eliminates the need to look it up on Google or ask a forum, something that should never be the case.
All replays will show up here with the name being the date and time they were saved (both campaign and multiplayer replays show here, campaign being clipped replays, and multiplayer replays being clipped and auto-created ones after each game, the same as what CS:GO does). This naming lets the user remember which is which. Writing about this now I should add a "Rename" button also, so they can organise them, which could also lead on to filtering options, something I never thought of until now. Once the replays are deleted from the server, they disappear from the list.
