Setting the Time Code

If the frame rate is set to

2

(119.9 fps),

8

(59.94 fps), or

6

(29.97

fps), the time code’s frame count causes a discrepancy between the
actual time and time code. When [

Enable

] is set, this discrepancy is

corrected automatically. This correction function is called “drop frame.”
This is for advanced users editing movies.

Enable

: The discrepancy is corrected automatically by skipping time

code numbers (DF: Drop frame).

Disable

: The discrepancy is not corrected (NDF: Non-drop frame).

The time code will be displayed as follows:
Enable (DF)

: 00:00:00. (Playback time: 00:00:00.00)

Disable (NDF)

: 00:00:00: (Playback time: 00:00:00:00)
