About K2 TimeDelay
About K2 TimeDelay
K2 TimeDelay is an optional control application that runs in the AppCenter
application on your local K2 Summit Production Client. TimeDelay records
incoming source material and delays the playback of the media. You can
determine the length of the delay. The system notifies you if you have
exceeded the limit of the available disk space. TimeDelay allows you to start
recording on the assumption that you will make sufficient room manually.
TimeDelay requires K2 Summit software version 7.1 or higher.
The record and play channels need to be on the same K2 system. Multiple
sessions of TimeDelay can run simultaneously if there are enough record and
playback channels on the K2. For example, in a K2 Summit Production Client
with two record and two play channels, you could have two sessions of
TimeDelay running, each with one recorder and one playback channel.

K2 TimeDelay overview
K2 TimeDelay allows you to view a summary of all the channels controlled
by this TimeDelay session. When you select a channel, it is highlighted with
a blue background; all other channels have a grey background. Only the
selected channel responds to keyboard input such as using keyboard
shortcuts to Play, Record, or Stop.
This section describes the graphical interface. The picture below shows the
TimeDelay pane with 3 playback channels: C2 and C3 are pending; C4 has
started playing. C1 is the selected channel.
