How to convert timecode edl into frames?
Does anyone know how to convert timecodes into frames from an edl text document?
Here are the details:
In my avid, I have one layer of titles, which list shot names. EDL Manager is able to read that layer, but EDL manager is only able to export a timecode list.
My ultimate goal is to have a list of shot names and their durations in frames, not feet and frames.
So I tried to use FilmScribe, but it errors out when it tries to read a layer that is nothing but titles.
Or does someone know of a way to export a frame based edl other than Filmscribe or EDL manager from Avid.
Avid version 4.0.5
FilmScribe version 26.0.5
EDL Manager version 26.0.5 -

You can open your edl in excel and do it there.
There is a timecode to numbers plugin for excel, too. Google for it.

Yep, I found a script that was written back in 1997, that still seems to work. Link below.
