    start timecode

    Posted by Len Hugh on September 22, 2014 at 11:52 am

    Again, Newbie question…
    Id like to find the start timecode of a .mov.
    I can ffmprobe and I get a long list of some pretty great stuff listed but how do I go about getting just the start timecode?
    Thanks in advance

    Please show the ffprobe console output.

    I ended up figuring out a way last night.
    my mov was called
    bars_pluge_src_dnx.mov

    ffmbc -i bars_pluge_src_dnx.mov 2>&1|grep timecode:|sed “s/[^0-9]*//”

    did the trick

    thanks!
