358 Chapter 12: Methods
dropFrame Required. Logical expression that determines whether the frame is a drop frame
(
TRUE) or not (FALSE). If the string hms ends in a d, the time is treated as a drop frame, regardless
of the value of
dropFrame.
fractionalSeconds Required. Logical expression that determines the meaning of the numbers
after the seconds; they can be either fractional seconds rounded to the nearest hundredth of a
second (
TRUE) or the number of residual frames (FALSE).
Example
This statement determines the number of frames in a 1-minute, 30.1-second movie when the
tempo is 30 frames per second. Neither the
dropFrame nor fractionalSeconds arguments
is used.
put HMStoFrames(" 00:01:30.10 ", 30, FALSE, FALSE)
-- 2710
This statement converts 600 seconds into minutes:
>> put framesToHMS(600, 1,0,0)
>> -- " 00:10:00.00 "
This statement converts an hour and a half into seconds:
>> put HMStoFrames("1:30:00", 1,0,0)
>> -- 5400
