    I can’t find a way to view the time and date of my footage once it is captured. how do I include the time and date of when the footage was recorded and be able to show and burn that info to a DVD?

    You can’t. FCP does not capture that display unless you feed it via the RCA outs of the camera to a capture card. FCP also does not access the date and time data. Something like CATDV will see it and show it to you, but you cannot display it in FCP unless you capture it the way I suggested.

    I’m too lazy to search for it but I think there’s a plugin that grabs that data and can superimpose it.

    I think. Maybe not.

    This is my standard sigfile so do not take it personally: “For crying out loud, read the freakin’ manual.”

    DVMP Basic will display the date and time, timecode, iris, shutter speed and other camera settings, but it’s only available on the PC.

    The Pro version also allows you to burn-in any of this information into the frames.
