how to add Time code track using a movie’s time stamp

[David Bogie]

Timecode comes from the metadata attached to the video itself. For that, you just use the timecode reader.Or you can modify the timecode by applying timecode generator. If you want to super an arbitrary date, you do that with a text generator.

I guess my question is how you add timecode to 300 files based on the date stamp.

I guess you will create 300 separate title supers.

You could do it Compressor by using the watermark feature but you’re still going to create 300 separate text objects.

The date of creation metadata item, white it exists, is not available as a selectable and then superable item, AFIK. There may be a filter/plugin for FCP that does that, dunno.
