Timecode overview
If video and audio data both have recorded timecode, align-
ing them to a timeline and synchronizing them together is
easy when using nonlinear editing software for editing.
HINT
The
uses a high-precision oscillator that enables the
generation of accurate timecode with a discrepancy of less than 0.5
frames per 24 hours.
The can input and output SMPTE timecode.
Timecode is time information written to data when recording video and audio. It is used for video editing, control of other
devices, and synchronization of audio and video, for example.
