INTRODUCTION 

Welcome 

TheRecord Player™ is the digital standard for playing recordings of courts, meetings and conferences.  While the player is 
backwards compatible with FTR Gold audio, it now includes enhanced video playback features and pitch compensation when 
playback speed is varied.  Because the record is stored digitally there is no degradation in quality, no matter how often it is 
played. 

To maximize the benefits of reviewing audio and video it is recommended that you capture the record using the companion 
program - TheRecord Recorder™. 

A number of features and enhancements have been included. 

 

You can change the appearance by selecting one of two skins 

 

The compact view of TheRecord Player can now be positioned as required 

 

Recordings can be played from an FTP server 

 

Recordings can be saved in a number of different formats 

 

Global keyboard shortcuts are now user defined 

 

Foot control switches are now customizable 

Player is available as a free download from the ForTheRecord website, located at 

www.ForTheRecord.com

.
