ShowRecDat - Display and use recording data within Vegas pro

Peter_P wrote on 11/1/2016, 3:43 AM

Hello together,

since July 2010 I’m continuously developing this Vegas pro custom command to display and use the recording data contained in the video clips and photos. Now I adapted the latest version for Vegas pro 14.

I use it as a docked window under the scopes. Data are updated when you click on a position in the video event.

To use the data within DVDA, you select the related video track and start ‘Set Event Names’. This will set the name of the events with the recording data at the begin of the clip. Now you start the ‘Export Subtites’ script (also contained in the ShowRecDat_3.01.zip) and you are ready to use these data from within DVDA for subtitles, that I normally hide and make them visible on demand only.

The files must only be unpacked and copied to the folders described in the read_me file. On Windows 10 system you might be required to unlock the *.dll within the file properties.

This tool is for free but with no obligation of any kind to me.

It is a shame for me. I hope you will in the future.

Since Vegas pro currently has no easy indication for HLG / S-Log2+3 files, I was asked by a user to add this to ShowRecDat and this is now included in V3.4.3. This works for Sony XAVC-S files only.

In addition I added a Fuji X-T4 bitrate view and for JPG files directly out of a Sony digicam the ambient temperature is shown.

There was almost no interest on the FR-CSVtoVFR.exe for DJI flight record integration. So I removed this from the package and added a new PDF for installation hint.

Hi @Peter_P do you have another way to download this program? The link in the first page doesn't seem to work any longer. It's a valuable tool.

Peter_P wrote on 10/2/2022, 1:07 AM

Hi Roger,
sorry the provider has changed some thing and so I have to renew the links. Will do that in the next days.

Peter_P wrote on 10/2/2022, 10:53 AM

The link and password (see first post) are now changed and an updated version has been released.

Thanks to the hints and help from Harold-Linke and further advice from Edward Troxel (jetdv) I have updated some of my tools to reflect the user selectable display Interface Types and uploaded them for your use.

The updated version 3.55 now supports the additional data store by the new Sony A6700 and presumably other actual Sony cameras. It show the focus Mode and focus distance as well as the 35mm eqv. focal length. If Clear Image Zoom is used, the factor is added in brackets.

Additional the sensor readout time is shown (here 15,83ms) which is responsible for the rolling shutter effect.

Do you have the link for that?

The Original Post has been updated today and the Release History now includes V3.55.zip. See if the link there works.

Thank you, I was able to download the new version and it works well (tested with a7SIII files).

Peter_P wrote on 8/8/2023, 4:43 AM

Thanks for testing. I only have the A6700 to check the new features/data.

RogerS wrote on 8/8/2023, 6:11 AM

Here's from a test file from an a7sIII

Peter_P wrote on 8/8/2023, 6:35 AM

Wow! very short sensor read time - A7SIII should have very low rolling shutter.
