Striping timecode (replacing the timecode track)

The stripe timecode dialog allows you to overwrite the existing timecode track for the loaded clip. You can replace the recorded timecode with time of day, or a specific start timecode value.

  1. Load the clip in the play channel.
  2. In Control view, select Control | Stripe Timecode. The Stripe Timecode dialog box opens.
  3. Specify the replacement timecode:
    • Time of Day – The new timecode track will start with the current time of day and will contain continuous values ranging from the current time of day plus the length of the clip.
    • Fixed Time – After choosing this option, select the timecode entry control, and enter a start timecode value. The new timecode track will contain continuous values ranging from the specified starting value to the starting value plus the length of the clip.
    • Drop frame – The drop frame option is available when system timing is set to 525 line standard (drop frame is a timecode adjustment that applies to NTSC video only). Drop frame allows the timecode track to indicate the actual running time of the clip. Drop-frame time code yields precise running times, but frames are not all numbered sequentially. A frame number must be dropped periodically to keep the clock right.
