Pausing the replay in progress issue

[burroughs]

Is there a way to pause the replay of an opponent's turn that has been going on for a while already? I am playing the complete OrBat version of the 'Market-Garden '44" campaign scenario and each time I watch the replay it's like watching yet another episode of a TV series - it is taking now up to 50 minutes to get through. Even in my "Kanev '43; Race to the River" game I had an instance in which I made my lady friend waiting at the door for a moment as I was finishing watching the replay. Confusing, annoying and troublesome to say the least. There's no problem with that in TOAW III though - so am I missing anything?

Please advise.
