Caption Timecode Sync Function Key
Caption Timecode Sync Function Key is the [+] key near the keypad by default. But you can
assign any function key of your choice.
User Time Stamp Frame Adjustment
User Time Stamp Frame Adjustment Time Stamp Frame Adjustment is inside the Preference
menu. This feature can compensate for your reaction time when pressing the [+} key to time
code a caption file – as long as your reaction time is consistent. For example, if you consistently
press the [+] key 10 frames after the time it should ideally be pressed to sync the audio and
captions, then set the time frame adjustment to –10. The software will automatically subtract 10
frames from the time code each time you press the [+] key, thereby compensating for your 10
frame lag time. Caution: if there are multiple users of the software and each has a different
reaction time, you should reset the Time Stamp Frame Adjustment to zero after each use of the
software so as not to throw off the timing of the next user!

folder is used for temporary files during some import and export operations.
