Clipify

Instant replay for Minecraft. Save the last 5 seconds to 10 minutes of your gameplay with a single keypress - no OBS, no Medal, no ShadowPlay, no account.

Clipify is a Medal-like instant replay mod for Minecraft. Save your recent gameplay as an MP4 with one keybind, manage and trim clips in-game, and optionally upload them for easy sharing.

Supports Minecraft 1.21.11 and 26.1.2.

Features

Instant replay, always recording

Rolling buffer of your last 5 seconds to 10 minutes - configurable, and each clip hotkey has its own length.
Captures exactly what's on your screen - world, HUD, chat, and open GUIs - as a standard, shareable .mp4.
Hardware encoding (NVIDIA NVENC, AMD AMF, Intel QuickSync) with an automatic libx264 software fallback, so it runs well on almost any machine.
Saves are near-instant - clips are stitched from the buffer with no re-encode.
Clip anywhere - the recorder runs in menus too, so you can grab something from the server list, title screen or pause menu, not just in a world.

Microphone & PC audio

Clips now record sound - your microphone and your PC / desktop audio, mixed straight into the saved MP4.
Zero-setup PC audio on Windows - captures whatever is playing to any output device (headphones, speakers, a virtual-cable output), nothing to install.
Pick your mic and output device, set per-source volume (0–200 %), and check your input with the Mic Test live level meter before you record.
The in-game editor now plays clip audio in sync with the preview, so you can actually hear your recordings and trims.
New Audio category in settings, styled to match the rest of the menu.
macOS: microphone capture works, PC audio isn’t supported there yet.

In-game clip editor

Browse every recording from the Clips screen and edit it without leaving Minecraft.
Search as you type to find a clip, and right-click any clip to rename it.
Live preview with play/pause, a timeline, and draggable in/out trim handles over a thumbnail filmstrip - with audio playing back in sync.
Save the trim as a copy or overwrite the original, open the clip in your system player, or delete it.
Reach it from the “Clips” button in the pause menu, or bind Open last clip to jump straight into the editor with your most recent recording.

Screenshots

Bind a screenshot key: it snaps the picture, saves it to a screenshots folder, and copies it to your clipboard so you can paste it straight into Discord.
The Clips screen sorts by All / Clips / Screenshots.

One-click sharing

Share links are generated on demand - click Generate link and it's copied to your clipboard, ready to paste into Discord and play inline. Copy link is instant afterwards.
Shared clips get a small “clipify” watermark in the bottom-right - only on the uploaded copy. Your saved file stays untouched.
The link keeps your clip's own resolution and near-original quality, so what your friends see is what you recorded.
Resilient host chain: x0.at (primary, long-lived links) with litterbox (72 h) and tmpfiles.org (1 h) as automatic fallbacks.

Discord presence

While you're in-game your Discord profile shows a “Playing Minecraft with Clipify” card with the Clipify logo and a Download Clipify button your friends can click.
Turn it off any time in Settings → General → Show on Discord.

Settings & controls

Clean, redesigned in-game settings (via Mod Menu, the pause menu, or a hotkey), split into General, Quality, Audio and Hotkeys.
One-click quality - pick Low (360p24), Standard (720p60) or High (1080p60), or go Custom and set resolution, bitrate, codec and encoder yourself.
Any frame rate from 10 to 240 - type it in instead of picking from a short list.
As many hotkeys as you want. Hit Add Hotkey, choose what it does - clip, screenshot, open last clip, open folder, open settings - and press the whole combo (e.g. Ctrl+Shift+G) to bind it. Clip keys each carry their own length, so one key can save the last 30 seconds and another the last 2 minutes.
Clipify's keys live in the Hotkeys tab now, not the vanilla Controls screen.

Clips are saved to .minecraft/clipify/clips/ with timestamped filenames; screenshots go to .minecraft/clipify/screenshots/.

What's new in 2.0.0

New

Discord shows a “Playing Minecraft with Clipify” card while you play.
Search and rename your clips; right-click to rename.
“Open last clip” hotkey jumps straight into the editor.
Unlimited hotkeys, each with its own action - and clip keys with their own length.
One-click quality: Low / Standard / High, or Custom.
Screenshot key that also copies to your clipboard.
Watermark on shared clips (uploaded copy only).

Changed

Clip and screenshot from menus too, not just in a world.
Video → Quality and Controls → Hotkeys; Clipify's keys left the vanilla Controls screen.
Any frame rate from 10 to 240.

Fixed

Audio now lines up with the picture - sound could run ~a second ahead and drift further during quiet stretches. Clips are now cut from the exact moment the first frame was captured.
Clips no longer lose their last moment when audio was on.
Same quality everywhere - the share link no longer gets shrunk to 1080p and re-compressed, the editor preview decodes at the size it's drawn, and scrubbing snaps to a sharp frame. Trims keep their quality too.
Edited clips keep their sound - trimming used to make them silent.
Turning off Show on Discord no longer crashes the game.

Requirements

Fabric Loader and Fabric API
Java 21+ (Minecraft 1.21.11) / Java 25+ (Minecraft 26.1.2)
Mod Menu recommended (opens the in-game settings screen)

FFmpeg is downloaded automatically on first launch (a verified, pinned build) - or drop your own binary into clipify/bin/.

Compatibility

Client-side only - install it yourself and play on any server.
Windows, macOS, and Linux for recording, hardware encoders are detected automatically.
Audio: microphone works on all platforms; PC audio is Windows-only for now.

Known limitations

PC audio is Windows-only. On macOS the microphone still records, but system-audio capture isn't available yet - macOS has no zero-setup loopback, so the PC Audio section is hidden there.
Share links are public - anyone with the link can view the clip.
