TIMECODE PROBLEMS

Active wrote on 9/25/2002, 10:41 AM

we are in PAL land and set our project ruler to PAL SMPTE EBU 25fps, our timcode ruler starts at 09:58:00:00 however when we setup to 'burn timecode' from the fx plugin it always starts on 00:00:00:00 - we have tried endless ways to sort this but nothing seems to work !!!

anyone got any ideas ?? this is a great feature but if it worked it would be a lot better - a lot of our clients want a TC to check before final changes and this would prove invaluable.

regards,

GLEN & JOHN

Hi Guys,

This is a workaround (and we will look forward to a better future):

Set your ruler for 59:45:00 (or similar)
Select and group all events, and move all to position "program first-frame" on the 1:00:00:00 (1hr mark)

Drop the TC FX on the preview window, PTT or render.
