The calculation time is per move, so it depends on the level of the game, computer speed and the total time you want it to afford. Note that it will not only check the moves played, but also create variations and sub-variations move-by-move (not just insert pvs), sometimes. For a first test to see how it works, you can try 3 seconds and increase later when you are more familiar with it. The threshold is the key setting of this function. It means the +/- difference between the evaluations of the move played and the engine's pm. I recommend to increase it to 0.75 or 0.80. With very small values, it will create a lot of "debatable matter-of-taste things." With higher values, it will focus more on moves which it thinks to be blunderrandom. :) >What UCI (or maybe winboard Engines will work??) Engines are supposed to be the >best for doing an analysis? I'm not 100% sure, but I think all types of engine will work with that function if they work in Fritz at all, generally. I would recommend Shredder 9 or Hiarcs, as they have very good hash learning (games will be analyzed backwards), afaik Junior 9 too, or of course Rybka because it "simply" is the strongest engine, currently. >Do the written text comments help in any way? Yes, some of them but not all. Some will really make sense and point you to interesting key positions, some others will seem somewhat dull. If you want to create analysis for a club magazine, chess homepage or something like that, a knowledgeable human's review and editing will be required. But it is a good basis for the interactive analysis to follow. Regards, M.Scheidl
