Timecode in MOV

DigitalMike

In Adobe Media Encoder CC 2017, when transcoding a video (i.e. MOV or MXF) that has an embedded timecode track to a MOV via Voukoder 1.1.0 format, regardless if libx264 or NVIDIA NVENC is used, the embedded timecode track is not preserved (not copied to the new MOV). However, if I use QuickTime format and H.264 video codec, the timecode track is preserved.

Is there any way to get Voukoder to supoort embedded timecode tracks in MOVs?

Thank you.

Phew... never dealt with timecode tracks before.

I guess it is not possible to preserve it. But maybe it is possible to create a new timecode.

Need to look that up in the ffmpeg docs.

It should be possible since aftercodecs implemented it a few months ago.

Timecode is really important in certain situations so it would be a useful feature to have.

I'd like to add it.

Any progress with this? Quicktime with timecode is essential for my workflow.
Please consider working on this again. Thanks.

I enabled the timecode information in mov/mp4:

Code

Tagged date                              : UTC 2021-02-11 19:31:35
TIM                                      : 00:00:41:50
TSC                                      : 60000
TSZ                                      : 1001

... and 00:00:41:50 is exactly the position where I rendered my short clip from the original footage from.

Available in the next release.
