Is it possible to replay a recorded game without having to close the replayed game and opening the file again? At least I would use such a feature.

I'm not sure what you mean. You can double click on the recording to play back. You can't current play back the game you are playing.

ok, further explanation is required - you double click on the recording to check it - then you just miss the thing you were looking for (fast forward past it, for example). Therefore you want to see it again. At the moment this means you have to close bd4 and double click the file again - I'm asking for a keyboard shortcut to start the recorded game over in that same bd4 window - rewind would be even better but I think that will be much more difficult to implement. restarting sounds easy

blaah, replacing enter with

Understand. I'll probably add that. The PC version doesn't have a "V" for very fast, so 'G' is pretty slow when trying to get through to a particular point in the recording... so I may add a shortcut (maybe V?) for skipping 10 seconds without rendering to allow searching. As for a rewind... I could add a "go back" button which would start again and skip up to "just before" where you are up to. A "real" rewind is "impossible", but you could fake it with some smart buffers. A new version will probably find itself out there in April.

A "jumping" rewind would do the trick for sure. No need for a "real" rewind.
