Here's how it works. Instead of sliding that big scrollbar on the
bottom of the video player (which you can use if you really feel like
it), you can hover your mouse over various images on the screen. Now
say you want to see whether Tracy Morgan is flipping off the camera by
tracing the motions his hands make in the shot above. Just click on his
hand, wait for a little green line to show you the motion his hand
makes through the screen, and slowly drag your cursor back and forth
along that line. The entire video will then rewind and fast forward as
you drag your mouse.

The effect is pretty awesome. But there is a downside. In order for
DimP to effectively track the motions made my various objects in an
image, it needs to process the video. And that can take a very long
time if you have large, high resolution videos with a lot of objects.
It will work with pretty much any AVI video, but you might have to wait
a few days for it to process all the frames. If you just want to check
the program out, DimP ships with a handful of short videos that you can
play with. DimP is currently only available for Windows.
