If you want to reset your timecode entries, hit the button called RESET. You can copy the result to your clipboard by clicking on the button named COPY. The results consist of three elements: the result timecode, the used frame rate, and the frame count of the timecode result. If your timecode calculation succeeds, TC Calc will show you a result in the result section. In that case, TC Calc will highlight the corresponding element of the concerning timecode and inform you what went wrong by showing you an info text in the result section, describing the problem. So, if youre in a PAL country, the first thing you have to do when you open the Calculator window. Currently (as it always has) the Calculator defaults to 30fps time base. You can copy and paste the timecode into the timecode fields as well.įurthermore, suppose you typed in values that are not allowed in the timecode. I would love it if, when you open the Timecode Calculator in Media Composer, that it defaults to the time base of the current project. As you will notice, TC Calc is very reactive and immediately shows results while you type in the timecodes. Also basic calculations are available within a video standard, to add, subtract, multiply or divide so you can calculate (addition/subtraction) the length of a. As the third step, you fill in the two timecodes. Future versions of Timecode Tool will include a timecode calculator and. If you have selected the subtract method, TC Calc subtracts the timecode above from the timecode below. PAL video runs at a faster speed than NTSC and consequently causes issues when. Second, you can choose to add two timecodes or subtract one timecode from the other (defaults to addition). First, you choose the desired FPS your calculations should take place (defaults to 24 FPS). The usage of TC Calc is quite simple and follows easy steps. They rather skip the first two frame counts in the timecode on the first second in each minute, but not if the minute count is divisible by ten. All other FPS choices use non-drop-frame timecodes (NDF).īut what are DF timecodes? Easy, drop-frame timecodes don't skip actual frames as the name might suggest.
The DF-suffix on 29.97 and 59.94 mean drop-frame and indicate that those two timecodes use the drop-frame method for showing timecodes.
TC Calc works with timecodes of different frame rates per second (FPS). The timecodes it processes are SMPTE-conform timecodes used in the motion picture industry. TC Calc is a timecode calculator which enables you to add or subtract two different timecodes.
