Adjusting Timecodes

You can easily adjust single or multiple event timecodes:

1.

Select the invalid entry or entries in the spreadsheet.

2.

Double-click in the Src In column.

3.

Adjust the timecode as required. You can enter absolute or relative timecode values:

• Absolute - absolute timecodes contain eight digits and specify the new timecode for the event, regardless of the current timecode.

Example	Result
01:05:43:21	Sets the timecode at 1 hour, 05 minutes, 43 seconds, and 21 frames
01054321

• Relative - uses + and - values to alter the timecode relative to its current value. You can also use h, m, and s to denote hours, minutes, and seconds.

Current Position	Example	Result
01:05:43:21	+1h	02:05:43:21
	-110	01:05:42:11
	+10000	01:06:43:21
	-6m	00:59:43:21

The media changes state to .

Note:  Timelines start at 01:00:00:00 by default, but you can change this to any value using the Sequence panel.

If you’re not sure what the timecode should be, you can:

• Hover the mouse over the target entry in the spreadsheet to view a timecode tooltip.
