Display Timecode
I would to display the timecode from the timeline (not the captured video) on an edited clip. Example, a 10 minute, 10 second, 10 frame saved .veg clip would start at 00:00;00 and end at 10:10;10 but I want the timecode to appear on the saved track when it is played. I would render it as an .mpg and send to a client who wants to do voice-over. What I’m trying to achieve is a video the client can watch and use the timecodes that appear on the video to decided where the voice-over’s should be. The client then sends me back a list of the timecode in and out points so I can add a new audio track and add the voice-over’s. The final saved version would not include the visable timecodes.
Is this achievable?

Put the timecode F/X on its own track. When done, delete or mute the timecode track.

Perfect; and simple too.
I did have to make an addition. When I added the new video track and moved it to the top (became trk 1) I had to add something to the track otherwise the timecode f/x was not visible. So I added the “Default Text” Media Generator (created a transparent background)and then cleared all the text.
Thanks for your help.

Use “Empty Event”.
Please note that your method is the timeline timecode. Move the event and the timecode changes.
If you add the timecode F/X to the media in Project Media, then you get the recorded timecode and moving the events on the timeline changes nothing. When you want to remove the timecode, just delete the F/X.

Drop the timecode FX on the Preview window and you’re done.
