| Answer: |
If you are using GrandPrix Race Manager in combination with our RaceReplay software, then GrandPrix Race Manager can control the recording of video and trigger the replay sequence or you can do the recording and replay manually.
- Computer Setup - How GrandPrix Race Manager communicates with RaceReplay is dependent on your computer setup, if running both programs on the same computer or on networked computers. You will need to select the appropriate option in the Advanced Software Setup screen within GrandPrix Race Manager.
- Same Computer - If running GrandPrix Race Manager and RaceReplay on the same computer, you can leave GrandPrix Race Manager set to Local communications.
- Different Computers (Networked) - If running GrandPrix Race Manager V9.0 or above with RaceReplay V2.0 and above on different computers that are networked together, you will need to specify the IP Address for the computer running RaceReplay. To determine the IP Address, go to the Software Setup screen in RaceReplay. The IP address will be listed under the Remote Video Control section. This is what you will need to enter into the Advanced Software Setup screen for GrandPrix Race Manager.
- Controlling Recording with Instant Replay - To have GrandPrix Race Manager control the recording and initiate the instant replay, two things need to be set.
- In GrandPrix Race Manager, go to the Options menu of the Racing screen (not the Main screen) and select the "Control Instant Replay" option.
- In RaceReplay, go to the Options menu, select "Replay" and then select the "Auto Replay" option.
- Controlling Recording with Manual Replay - To have GrandPrix Race Manager control the recording but you wish to manually trigger the replay for only select heats, then do the following:
- In GrandPrix Race Manager, go to the Options menu of the Racing screen (not the Main screen) and select the "Control Instant Replay" option.
- In RaceReplay, go to the Options menu, select "Replay" and make sure that the "Auto Replay" option is turned off.
- When Not Replaying - You have two options on what RaceReplay is to do when not displaying the video replay.
- Minimize Out of Sight - For RaceReplay to minimize out of sight after playing a video replay, go to the Options menu of the Main screen, select After recording/Replay and then select the Minimize Screen option.
- Keep Visible - You wish RaceReplay to remain visible after playing a video replay, so you can manually trigger a replay or monitor the live preview, then do the following:
- Make sure that you do not have the Minimize Screen option turned on (as described above).
- You can reduce the video size down to the minimum to take up less screen space, if desired.
- Go to the Options menu of the Main screen and select the Always On Top option. This will make sure RaceReplay will stay over the top of other programs, like GrandPrix Race Manager.
- Start of Recording - If your timer indicates when the start gate has dropped, then the recording will start at this time; otherwise, recording will start when you see the yellow "Ready" message.
Note: If there is a significant delay in the start of the heat, then the recorded file size will get quite large. Make sure you set the file storage options in RaceReplay as desired.
- Stop Recording - As soon as results are received from the timing system, recording will be stopped.
- Start of Replay Sequence - The replay sequence will be started once GrandPrix Race Manager has finished performing its end of heat tasks (updating track record, notification of round complete, etc.). This is to make sure that GrandPrix Race Manager will not interfere with the replay sequence.
