Medal Recording Options Guide


Medal offers multiple recording options to capture your gameplay. Here’s a guide to help you choose the best method for your needs:


TABLE OF CONTENTS


Clip Mode


With Clip Capture, you can capture any moment with a press of a button (Default: F8) and Medal will instantly save the previous 15, 30, 45, 60, and 120 seconds! We also have longer clip times that go up to 20 minutes.

You can also adjust the quality of your clips in Settings > Quality.


Screenshots


Medal also allows you to capture screenshots of specific moments without creating a full clip. This is a great option when you want to save a highlight quickly without recording video. Screenshots are automatically saved to your Media Library, where you can view, manage, and share them just like your clips.


Full Session Recording


With Full Session Recording, you can capture your entire gaming session and create clips from within that session. There is no limit on how long Medal will record your gaming session. Once your gaming session is finished, you can trim your session to clips for uploading and sharing!


Start/Stop Full Recording Hotkey

Records your entire game session automatically from when the game opens all the way until the game is closed. You can still press any clipping or bookmark hotkeys to create highlights within that full session.


Desktop Capture Recording


If you have multiple monitors, you can choose which one to record. All of these options can be found in Settings > Clip  Settings.


While anyone can record their desktop, you must have premium if you want to upload your desktop recordings.
