Most great Among Us moments only land with the people who were there. The kill you thought nobody saw, the meeting where everyone piled suspicion on one player, the confident ejection that turned out to be a crewmate: the truth only comes out after the game. This guide covers one method: record Among Us with DOR, trim just those scenes, and pass them around to the friends you played with as a dor.gg link. Since games are short and you play many in a row, the first thing you need is a way to tell which game is which in the recording.
The short answer
Launch Among Us on a PC with DOR installed, and the whole evening, from lobbies to every game and meeting, is saved as one mp4. After you close the game, open the recording in the library, use the lobby screens to find the game you want, trim just the kill or meeting, and paste the dor.gg link into your group chat. If you want your voice explaining yourself in meetings to come through clearly, check how to record game sound and mic together first.
Sending Among Us highlights to your friends
- 1Install DOR and launch Among UsInstall the free DOR app on your Windows PC and launch Among Us. Among Us became a supported game in the October 2026 app update, and DOR detects and records it automatically. The recording does not split at the end of each game; it runs continuously until you close Among Us.
- 2Note each game's role and order in one lineGames are short, so a single recording can hold more than ten. After each one, jot down a line like game four, impostor, caught in a meeting, and later you can count lobby screens to jump straight to it. If a meeting was decisive, note the real-world time too.
- 3Keep meetings through the vote resultAn emergency meeting is only fun when you see who suspected whom and how the vote turned out. Treat everything from the meeting screen opening to the end of the ejection animation as one block and do not cut it in the middle. On the other hand, cut the stretches where you just walk around doing tasks.
- 4Trim the section in the libraryOpen the recording in the library and set a start and end point in the trim tool. The meeting screen and the map are both laid out wide, so keeping 16:9 avoids cropping the voting window; if your group only watches on phones, you can pick 9:16 or 1:1.
- 5Reveal impostor games after everyone is doneSending an impostor game while you are still playing with the same lobby can affect everyone's deductions in the next round. Sending them all once the session is over turns the video into a reveal, and friends can see exactly how they got fooled.
- 6Turn the night's funniest moments into one videoMerge kills and ejection twists from several games in DOR Studio, which opens in your browser, and add text with the game number and your role to make a recap of the night. Share the finished video as a dor.gg link or download it as an mp4.
Signals for each Among Us situation in your recording
| Scene | Signal in the recording | What to trim |
|---|---|---|
| Role reveal | The screen at the start showing whether you are a crewmate or impostor | Just a few seconds, as an opener for the next scene |
| Impostor kill | Checking your surroundings or ducking into a vent right after a kill | From the approach until you leave the scene |
| Body report or emergency meeting | The meeting screen opening and the voting window appearing | From the start of the meeting to the vote result |
| Perfect alibi | Defending yourself by chat or voice during a meeting | From your defense until someone else is named |
| Ejection twist | The animation of a player being launched into space | Through the ejection and the line revealing who they were |
| Sabotage chaos | Alarms going off and crewmates rushing to fix it | From the sabotage until it is fixed or someone dies |
| Win or loss screen | The crewmate or impostor victory screen | From the final meeting to the results |

What DOR does in Among Us
DOR is a free Windows desktop app. When you launch Among Us, it detects the game automatically and records it with full-session recording: everything from launch to exit is one mp4, with no per-game splitting and no automatic clips that detect kills, so you find and trim scenes yourself. Game audio and your mic are recorded together, and with an NVIDIA graphics card, NVENC hardware encoding is the default. On nights with many games the disk fills quickly, and as the app settings note, recording stops automatically when free space drops below 20GB. When you do not need recording, you can turn off just this game in the full-session recording group in settings, and a confirmation dialog appears when you do. To combine scenes from several games, see how to merge game clips, and to make a vertical video that looks good on phones, see how to make a vertical game video.
