The Replay Module
In its default form the Replay module can be used as a broadcast delayer or for basic replay. Controlled through the API or via an interfacing module like JLCooper I/O it will change into a very powerful module with its multi-input recorder, multiple players with slow motion functionality and built-in video and audio mixers.
Right click the module to open its popup menu. The following additional menu entries are available.

Clip Export Folder

Note saved clips are kept in the record buffer, the folder selected here is for optional (compressed) export of clips for e.g. publishing on social media. By default this points to Windows' Videos folder. The file name is automatically created including a timestamp (VidBlasterX_yymmddhhmmss.mp4, e.g. VidBlasterX_230805163944.mp4).
