Timeline timecode Specifies the location of the current-time indicator within the timeline. The format of the

timecode uses semicolons (hours;minutes;seconds;frames) for NTSC projects and colons

(hours:minutes:seconds:frames) for PAL projects. You can edit the timecode to set the current time in the timeline.

Source timecode Specifies the location of the current-time indicator within the video clip (using the video clip’s

timecode).

Tracks Display the names of video, audio, and subtitle clips and show their locations in the timeline. Video, audio,

and subtitles are displayed on separate tracks.

Track selectors Designate the active track—the track played when you view the timeline in the Monitor panel. You

can activate only one audio and one subtitle track at a time. However, whereas one audio track must be active (even

if it is empty), you do not need to activate a subtitle track.

Zoom slider and buttons Zooms in and out on the timeline.

Note: You can also press the + (plus) key to zoom in and the - (minus) key to zoom out. For more keyboard shortcuts,

see “Using keyboard shortcuts” on page 181.

Previous and Next buttons Moves the current-time indicator to the previous or next video clip, audio clip, still

image, or subtitle clip and selects it in the timeline.
