How do I clip Genshin Impact on PC?

Install Medal from medal.tv/download, launch Genshin Impact, and Medal records your gameplay in the background automatically. Press F8 to save the last 15 seconds to 10 minutes as a clip, or say "clip that" without touching the keyboard. Works on NVIDIA, AMD, and Intel GPUs.

What is the best Genshin Impact recorder for clips and edits?

Medal records clean 4K source footage of your Elemental Bursts, reaction combos, Spiral Abyss clears, and Wish pulls, then lets you trim and export them without compression. Editors get high-bitrate clips with separate audio tracks so you can drop the game OST and keep the SFX.

Does Medal affect FPS or performance in Genshin Impact?

No. Medal uses hardware-accelerated encoding (NVENC, AMF, or QuickSync) and runs at under 5% CPU on most systems. You can lower clip resolution or frame rate in settings on lower-end hardware.

Can I record a full Spiral Abyss or weekly boss run?

Yes. Medal's instant replay buffer captures anywhere from 15 seconds up to several hours on demand, so you can save an entire Spiral Abyss chamber or a full weekly boss fight with a single hotkey.

Can I review my Genshin rotations after recording?

Yes. Every clip opens in Medal's built-in editor where you can scrub frame by frame, slow-mo a Burst animation, and trim a rotation down to the exact reaction combo you want to showcase.

Can I clip a Wish pull or winning the 50/50?

Yes. Because Medal is always buffering in the background, your 10-pull and that C6 or 50/50 win are already recorded the instant they happen. Press F8 right after and the reaction is saved.

Can I share my Genshin Impact clips directly to social media?

Yes. One click generates a shareable link that embeds on Discord and auto-formats for TikTok and Reddit. No file uploads, no compression, no "file too large" errors.

Will Medal get me banned in Genshin Impact?

No. Medal is a screen recorder that uses standard Windows capture APIs. It does not read or modify the game's memory or interact with the anti-cheat process. Millions of players use Medal alongside anti-cheat protected games safely.

Does Medal work on AMD and Intel GPUs?

Yes. Unlike NVIDIA ShadowPlay which only works on GeForce cards, Medal works on every GPU: AMD Radeon, Intel Arc, and NVIDIA all supported.
