Modifying the Start Timecode

In some cases you might need to change the timecode for the first frame of a sequence. This feature applies only to Production Management sequences.

To modify the start timecode of a sequence:

1. Load a sequence in the Media Viewer.

2. Click the Timecode Display turn-down arrow and select Start.

   A lock icon is displayed.

3. Click the lock icon.

   The timecode display is underlined.

   

4. Type the new timecode.

   To restore the original digits of the timecode, press the Esc key or click outside the timecode box.

5. Press Enter (Windows) or Return (macOS).

   The Modify Start Timecode confirmation box is displayed and asks if you want to save the sequence with the displayed timecode.

6. Click Yes.

   The sequence is saved with the new timecode and the lock is restored.

To switch between drop-frame and non-drop frame for NTSC sequences:

• Type a semicolon (;) or colon (:) at any time.
