Our mission is to give you the features you need to have the best possible clipping experience with Medal. We read every piece of feedback and every suggestion you send us. Today, we’re releasing one of your most highly requested features yet — Push To Talk (PTT).
To enable PTT, simply head over to your Audio and Device settings to enable it. Once enabled, your mic will remain muted unless you’re holding down your PTT hotkey. It’s that simple!
With PTT you’ll have the freedom to decide to record or not record your voice in your clips at the touch of a button. Now you won’t need to think about changing your mic settings between clips or censoring yourself when you’re in the heat of intense team fights or scoring trick shots in Rocket League.
Medal AI — ICYMI
Medal Clip Length
In this update, we also put a lot of effort into improving your ICYMI experience. When enabled, Medal AI makes your clipping experience even more streamlined and simple with our automatic event detection that captures your sickest plays automatically.
We’ve made ICYMI even more intuitive by allowing you to set different clip lengths just for your ICYMI clips to short as 5 seconds — perfect for edits and montages!
ICYMI Clip Sound
We’ve added separate clip sound for ICYMI clips so you know when you took a clip manually and when Medal AI takes a clip for you! This setting also allows you to turn off the ICYMI sound and leave your normal clip sound on. Now there’s no more second-guessing yourself and wondering if you accidentally pressed your clip key — you’ll know when ICYMI has your back.
New ICYMI Triggers
Our Medal AI is even smarter. We added tons of new ICYMI triggers to capture even more of your epic plays.
League of Legends — New Trigger events include the Player Slain, Baron Steal, Baron Kill, Turret Kill, Inhibitor Kill, Dragon Steal, Dragon Kill, Herald Steal, and Herald Kill
CS:GO — We have added the Player Death event to CS:GO
Valorant — We have added the Spike Planted event to Valorant

Color Picker for Text
We’ve added MORE colors to the text editor to beautify the text shown on your clips. When adding text, you can select custom text colors, stroke colors, and background colors!
Clip Timeline Editor
Full Session Recordings now uses the new editor timeline — The Full session Recording editor has been given some improvements to make it more intuitive. Now trimming is easier than ever!
Timeline Clip Length and preview — Now, as you drag your clips the timeline stays the same length. We’ve also added frame previews as you drag for more precision when editing.
Other Updates and QoL Improvements
We’ve changed the timeline behavior for single clip editing — When trimming a single clip, the video will no longer snap to the full length of the timeline making for easier trimming adjustments.
Improved Medal Startup and load times — The team is working hard to constantly improve Medal’s performance all around. Start-up and Load times should feel much faster.
Improvements to Adding and previewing music — We optimized the performance when adding music in the editor.
