Expression for Timecode Generator, so I don’t have to render for hours???
Posted by Daniel Elder on October 17, 2006 at 10:53 pmThat’s all I wanted to know, is if there is a time code generated expression that reads it with 01:00:00:00 timecode, thanks

October 18, 2006 at 2:42 amJust apply this expression to the Source Text of a text layer:
timeToTimecode(3600 + time)
That should do it.

It seems that this doesn’t do much as far as render time, is it a big difference between the expression and the generator effect?

I plan to render, I was just wondering if the Expression had any benefits over the generator effect as to limiting the size of the render or limiting the time of the render, but it doesn’t appear to.
