Changing Timecode
 
 
 

You can change the start timecode of a clip for the record timecode, source timecode, or both.

If you are mixing clips that originate from formats that use different timecode, you may want to change their timecode. Use the Change Timecode tool to change the start timecode for a clip and manage source clips with different timecode formats.

NoteTo change the timecode of a Deliverable with the Change Timecode tools, use the tools available in the clip library.

To change the timecode of a clip:

  1. Access the Change Timecode tool in one of the following ways:
    • From the A/V Tools box, select Timecode, and then click Change TC.

    • If you are using the EditDesk tool, click a clip to which you want to apply the timecode value.
