  Video Filters>Video>Timecode Reader.

  YOu might need to nest your sequence first, otherwise the reader will read the source TC of the clips and not the timeline. Unless that is what you want.

  Hi Rohan

  If I understand you correctly, you want to burn the SOURCE timecode on to your movie, not the SEQUENCE time code?

  If that is the case, you need to drop a Video > Timecode Reader effect on to each one of your video clips on the time line. This will read the clip’s source timecode and display it as a burned in a superimposed box.

  If you want the SEQUENCE timecode, you need to nest your whole sequence into a new sequence (so it becomes a single flattened clip on the timeline) then appy Timecode Generator effect to the whole sequence (you can set the start timecode).

  Hope that helps

  James
