We are excited to introduce the Spotlight tool that you can now find in the Annotation tab. To create a new spotlight simply click and drag on your source material. A box will appear around the area you select, with the spotlight in its center. This spotlight can be changed to an ellipse or a square. You can further customize the spotlight to your liking by adjusting the tool’s properties. Once you have the spotlight configured to your preference you can begin to track your subject of interest. This is simply done by selecting your spotlight and moving it while navigating through the frames of the video.

Import and Export Amped Replay Project Files

Users can now both import and export Amped Replay project files. To import a project simply click on Import then navigate through the Files Selector until you find your project file. You can change the type of files to browse by going into the default setting of All Supported File Types, then click on Project Files. Exporting a project you’re currently working on is just as intuitive and easy. Simply click on the Export tab at the top of Replay. Under Export Actions you will see the option to Export Project. After clicking this option the navigator window will appear and you can choose where to export your project to. If this is the first time you’re saving the project, or you are saving the project in a new location, a dialogue box will appear.

Bookmark Descriptions

We have also added the ability to add a description to your bookmarks. Since bookmark descriptions are put into the report, this allows you to quickly and easily prepare narrative reports. This can be simply done by double-clicking on the Add/Edit bookmark button at the bottom of the screen while the video is paused. The first time you click it, the bookmark will be added. The second time you click it, a dialogue box will appear. This can be used to add any description you need for the bookmark you just saved. Anything you write, along with the bookmark, will be featured within the report.
