Video Playback And Redaction Is Even Easier With Amped Replay’s Newest Features

Amped Replay is a universal player and converter for proprietary and standard video files, with basic enhancement, annotation and redaction functions, designed to be used by everyone from those on the immediate frontline of law enforcement to the more intermediate lab workers ‘behind-the-scenes’. Our work didn’t stop following the launch of this new product in March, and we are proud to announce that we have made investigating images and videos even easier with the new features recently added to Amped Replay.

We’ve made playback even smoother than before with the ability to enable hardware-accelerated playback for previewing videos faster – introducing Smooth Playback in the Play Tab. This is a fantastic and long-requested feature for higher resolution video, such as mobile phone footage, drone footage or in-car camera footage, and we have no doubt it will further speed up initial investigations.We’ve added even more features to our Annotate Tab, including new text macros, such as Frame number, Time, Timestamp and Filename, that can be included in your project under the Text button.

Tracking ability has now been added for all our redaction tools, making it easier to pixelate or blur moving subjects or objects. This is a very useful feature for those who regularly use Replay for viewing and presenting footage in which some sort of redaction or annotation is required and it’s bound to further expedite video evidence and protect sensitive material more effectively.

We’ve also added a Reset button to remove any enhancements applied within Replay. We’ve updated the Recent Tab to allow you to quickly remove cached files. In addition, we’ve made improvements with the detection of inserting and ejecting removable media drives within the Import Tab, making sure that should you be playing media from removable storage it is ready and waiting for you in the Import folder browser.
