  4. Carmen Ruiz

    Does Hindsight capture only the game’s audio, or can it include voice chat and microphone audio too?

    1. Dylan BuckMaker

      You can configure it however you like. All audio options are supported!

  5. Ravi Menon

    Can I choose a different replay length for each game, and where are saved clips stored?

    1. Dylan BuckMaker

      Hi Ravi,

      You can choose replay lengths from 15 seconds up to 5 minutes. Hindsight will automatically use the last set capture source. Whenever you change the capture source, you may need to revisit the length setting if you want to change it for different games.

      Saved clips are stored locally on your Mac. You set up the storage location during setup.

      Give it a try! It’s really easy to use and I use it often for my gaming sessions.
