Automatic Event Detection or Auto Clipping is Medal's auto-capture system powered by Medal AI!

With auto clipping enabled, you don't need to worry about pressing your clip hotkey to save that kill, Medal will capture it automatically. You can also set a custom clip length for auto-clipping clips!

If you are using Full Session Recording, Medal will automatically create bookmarks instead of clips.

Please note: Auto Clipping does not currently support Ultra-wide monitors set higher than a 16:9 resolution. We are working on a solution for this.

Where can I find it?

You can locate the Auto Clipping settings in Settings > Game Detection.

How do I set it up?

Click on the game you want to have Medal auto-capture and enable it in the new Window. You can also enable/disable events inside the same panel! 

What games are currently supported?

The current list is Rocket League, League of Legends, Dota 2, PUBG, Fortnine, War Thunder, EA Sport FC Online, and Valorant (this list was updated in March 2025).

You can find the full list of currently supported games and its events in Settings > Game Detection.

Auto Clippping isn't working. What do I do?
