Something like this:

Hi Graham,

That would be what I need, probably with a filled black box and
some font customization, would this be done through scripting?
Thanks,

1] Not a Script.

2] I can make font changes to everything EXCEPT the T/C. The T/C FX is set. However, the T/C can be widened or squashed.

3] Where do you want the BLACK BOX?

One CAN change the SIZE of the T/C font, but not the STYLE.

Placing the black box just under the text would be fine,
as in this sample: (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Burnt-in_timecode)

I actually have Adobe Media Encoder installed and realized it can burn in timecode, but I
couldn’t get it to run (I have After Effects activated but Encoder says it’s not activated).
Thanks,

Vegasaur has TextGen that can do it (Timecode counter with custom BEFORE/AFTER text). Font, size, position, color, and other properties can be customized via text presets. Black background can be created with Solid Color generator.

Yes Graham, that would be fine, thanks.
Thanks Aleksey,

My approach adds T/C effect to the WHOLE Timeline project, not just an Event.

I expected that, what are you using in your approach?
