Hi all, Today, the developer, Fabio Merlo, helped me with the problems in my videos above. He took over my PC via Teamviewer. It is the first time I get this level of service by a developer for a Flight Sim! The only other time I had this was by the company that built my PC. 1. To get to enter manually a name to a recording, we just need to UNTICK Choose Default File Path for recorded flight. When this is ticked, FCR automatically names recordings Year Month Day Hour Minute, ie 202211111431. As this is not mentioned in the manual, I asked for it to be updated, and this will be done. 2. As for STOP re-starting the flight, it is a feature most users wanted. I am not sure why many users want this, because I am happy to re-start a flight myself... 3. The Toolbar disappearing is a bug known by Asobo. This can happen when a 3rd party addon re-starts a flight. 4. I am not sure yet why the Weather feature disappears from the Toolbar after FCR re-starts the flight. This is great to get such a level of service by a developer! Not due to Flight Control Replay, when replaying a flight, when the distance between the camera and the aircraft is above ~ 2 km, the aircraft disappears from view. I think it was a problem for virtual aerobatics teams, but I don't know what to change in FS to force FS to keep showing the aircraft when the distance between the camera and the aircraft is above ~ 2 km...

Hi Fabio, OK. I think I have Teamviewer installed on my PC but it may be old... What option is this here? I can't see anything related to naming recordings in Options. Unfortunately I can't put a JPG: So I write options I have in Options, General below!! Choose sample rate for record/play Start recording automatically if you fly Choose Default File Path for recorded flight Automatically LOAD Replay after RECORD Automatically export flight data for GOOGLE Earth 3d and Maps Format (KMLFile) Load Replay without load initial flight situation Continue Live flight starting from a Replay point (MSFS only) FlightControlReplay Always On Top Window Enable Record/Play Multi Objects at the same time Recovery CTD Enable Transparency Mode Record / Replay Mode MSFS Toolbar Network Port I can't see anything about naming recordings... EDIT: video showing a few bugs I had earlier today: IN THE DESCRIPTION OF THIS VIDEO ARE EVENTS OF INTEREST with their times. Sorry, it is a long video, but it is the result of many, many hours of testing! Flight Control Replay v5 caused the MSFS Toolbar to disappear, or some items to disappear, here the Weather. Also, pressing STOP more than once re-start the flight. And, I also had a flight re-starting when pressing STOP only once... I see that now I am limited to 5.96 kB. Will this mean I can no longer post? Kind regards, Raymond

Hi Fabio, How can I get to give a name to the recording? At the moment it gives a name automatically (year month day hh mm) to 6 files, but then it is difficult to see which files I want to keep and the files to delete. Because after a few recordings there are many, many files... This is confusing especially when they are done on the same day: only the time in the file name changes for files done on the same day. If I could name the files just before it starts recording, I would put a name that easily differentiates the files name, ie 'RECORD ONE'. We could also choose to either have year month day hh mm appended at the end of the file name, ie 'RECORD ONE 202211101358'... How can I set it so that I click start, I then can enter the recording name, then it starts recording after I press a button to OK the name of the recording? EDIT 1: Also, I found that: Spectator view replay is NOT very smooth when Sample rate for recording/play is set to AUTOMATIC. Watch this short video: To get a smooth Spectator view replay, I must set Sample rate for recording/play to FPS at 60 FPS, here: Also, one of my Options settings is Automatically LOAD Replay after RECORD, but in the video below, this would not work: I had to load manually Not due to Flight Control Replay, when the distance between the camera and the aircraft is above ~ 2 km, the aircraft disappears! Watch from 6:00 and 7:05 in the video above. Do you know what to do to avoid aircraft disappear in this case? EDIT 2: The manual page 34 states: "If the toolbar of MSFS disappears at the top of the simulator screen, this is not a bug related with FlightControlReplay, it’s known and documented by the developers at Asobo Studio and Microsoft. Relaunch the flight from the main menu of the simulator will not fix it. You have to close and restart the simulator to access and display again MSFS toolbar." This is the first time ever I lost the MSFS toolbar, after having used the CinematicR feature. ESC to re-start the flight would not fix it. Just to try, I ended the flight and re-started a flight, without re-starting FS, and the MSFS Toolbar was back! EDIT 3: Flight Control Replay v5 caused the MSFS Toolbar to disappear, then caused FS to CRASH. I really don't know what went wrong! Kind regards, Raymond
