Timecode
In the "Timecode" section you will find several presets for controlling the timecode
display. This function adds a special timecode object to a free track under the video
object.
You can adjust the position of the timecode by moving the timecode object in the
preview monitor. The handles on the borders can be used to adjust the size.
Presets can be customized in "Settings".
Timecode source: The type of timecode can be selected here. The options are:
• Movie time: The time position in the MAGIX Video Pro X5 arranger.
• Object time: The time position within the timecode object independent of the
movie length and the position in the arrangement.
• Recording date/time: The date and time when the footage was recorded. This
timecode information must be saved in the video, otherwise the display will be
empty.
• Recording timecode: The timecode for the video that is created by the camera.
This timecode information must be saved in the video, otherwise the display will
be empty.
Add variable: The date/time format of the selected preset is displayed as variables in
the format line (variables are enclosed in square brackets). These can be deleted or
