Softron Media Services has released the first instant video replay solution on the Mac. M|Replay, that’s its name, can record multiple HD channels on one Mac, and instantly replay all channels synchronised to review the important moments. M|Replay is ideal either as a replay server for video production or for example as an adjudication system for referees.

Thanks to its intuitive user interface, the M|Replay application will allow you to instantly replay all the cameras at once to review important moments, and select one camera to view in full screen if needed; while still continuing to record all channels. You can add markers and create clips to be played back immediately or exported at a later time.

M|Replay can be controlled either on screen, with keyboard shortcuts, or with some dedicated hardware controllers, so all the controls are at the touch of a finger.
