DRS is designed to allow multiple sources of qualitative data to be coded \u2013 for example, alternative video streams. It also allows extremely sensitive time coding and multiple coding streams to identify and correlate different elements of the video\/visual data being scrutinised. For example, synchronous speech, gesture and eye movement. Importantly, DRS can also import and retain data already transcribed in Transana.<span>&nbsp; Unfortunately it is also worth noting that DRS is in the prototype stage &#8211; so it&#8217;s ultimate longevity is not guaranteed (funding is currently in place via the NCeSS). <\/span>To take a look at the Digital Replay Systems go straight to the <a href=\"http:\/\/sourceforge.net\/projects\/thedrs\">Source(Forge)<\/a> to download or check out the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.mrl.nott.ac.uk\/research\/projects\/dress\/software\/DRS\/Home.html\">developer\u2019s area<\/a> on the University site.&nbsp; <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin:0;\">\n<!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on the_content --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on the_content -->","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"\r\n\t\t<!-- BEGIN ODIOGO LISTEN BUTTON v2.5.7 (WP) -->\r\n\t\t<script type=\"text\/javascript\" language=\"javascript\">\r\n\t\t<!--\r\n\t\t\/\/ ODIOGO_START:do_NOT_remove_this_comment\r\n\t\tshowOdiogoReadNowButton (\"687068\", \"Digital Replay System vs Transana\", \"36\", 290, 55);\r\n\t\t\/\/ -->\r\n\t\t<\/script>\r\n\t\t<br\/>\r\n\t\t<script type=\"text\/javascript\" language=\"javascript\">\r\n\t\t<!--\r\n\t\tshowInitialOdiogoReadNowFrame (\"687068\", \"36\", 290, 0);\r\n\t\t\/\/ ODIOGO_END:do_NOT_remove_this_comment\r\n\t\t\/\/ -->\r\n\t\t<\/script>\r\n\t\t<!-- END ODIOGO LISTEN BUTTON v2.5.7 (WP) -->\r\n\t\t\n<p>I\u2019m here at the NCeSS (the National Centre for eSocial Science) 14th International Conference in Manchester.
