I feel your pain with trying to sync video to data, it's never worked well for me and is usually an exercise in frustration. I have a Replay XL for secondary views but will be using a new AIM SmartyCam HD for video linked to an MXL 2 data system in my new car. You can use a SOLO DL with the camera also, or just the camera alone to start out to give you speed, laptimes, and G's data in the video. Turn on the key, video and data start, synced, and ready to view. I can get you the name of my AIM rep if you want to get some pricing and info. Your going to want a brake pressure sensor but the gas pedal position can be picked up in ECU wiring I believe..

The replay takes great video, if traqmate has a no-brainer auto start/sync function that actually works with NO input from the user required it may be a good option for you as you already have the Replay. Mine was hard wired in with the remote record button..
