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)
