  Add timer to Video?

  Posted by Gary Chvatal on August 29, 2008 at 2:32 pm

  Is there an easy way to super a clock/timer to a clip? I’m doing an edit for an insurance investigation. We need to show how long it takes for a vehicle to get from point A to point B.

  Client would like the clcok to start at 0 at point A then stop at point B. Need to repeat this for six variations. A time code window is not ideal becaus the starting point for each event is slightly different.

  I need at least 10th if not 100th of seconds to display. If it were just seconds I would consider laying in text graphics….

  Gary,
  You can simply use the “timecode” filter in the videofx to
  apply this feature you are looking for.

  Ok…I’ve been messing with it since I posted the question…I really thought the timecode would continue along the time line….didn’t realize it could reset by splitting the clip.

  Its done. Now at least the answer is in the archive in case somebody else searches for it.

  Thanks, Steve
