Typically when capturing a high speed camera, the camera is sending let's say 300 fps, in the final file we don't put 300 fps but something more reasonable like 30 fps so the player can read it without trying to decode at 300 fps which would be too intensive. Physical high speed cameras or phones do the same when saving.
The first line, "Framerate replacement threshold" is the value above which this behavior is active. By default it's 150 fps. Anything under this will keep the value in the final file. Anything above this value will be replaced by something else. I had a hard time with the wording, it's hard to convey the meaning succinctly.
The second line, "Replacement framerate" is the actual framerate that will be written in the video metadata.
The old behavior is that anything above 100 fps was silently converted to 30fps.

Can you describe how the problem manifests itsedf? What this is supposed to do is create a "time origin" point in each video at the respective current location. Then synchronization works based on these time origin.
- When you hit the button, does it change the timing in individual videos (they should now have negative times before the sync point)?
- Does it work if you move videos to the desired point and set up each individual videos instead, by using "Mark current time as time origin", (button or right click in each video)?

I have the "stop recording by duration" set to 3 seconds but sometimes, one video will be 3.1s and the other will be 2.5s. it seems that when the difference is small, both videos will play. when the difference is larger, only one will play.
Are the camera captured to the same folder? This is not supported in replay at the momentq as it just looks for the most recent one, they should be saved to different folders and each replay screen should be pointed to the respective folder. But even then both screens should load the same video and start playback, not sure what's going on.
One video being 2.5 indicates another issue. Either there are frame drops or the camera isn't sending a true 120 fps.
