SMPTE Time Code Input

Using sound input of computer, external SMPTE Time Code can be read.
24 frame/second
25 frame/second
30 frame/second drop
30 frame/second non-drop
and others can be read, but any signals are treated as 30 frame/second non-drop, thus fraction of second (frame) is not precise if other signal is fed.
In addition, because sound input device has buffer, there is some delay (normally around 100 mS, varies depending on hardware).
Use [Delay] setting to correct any delay.



Time code is displayed as it is read.

Setting...
