#MAKE .SRT FILE FOR VEGAS PRO 16 HOW TO#
As this is really the first time I have played with JScript and Vegas scripting, I certainly don't have a good feel for how to do this stuff right. Ok, I have been playing around with the scripts you posted and integrating in the dv_datecode utility you point to. Robert Bindley Posts: 542 Joined: Fri 11:31 am Wow, I should have waited a little longer to post. The script would then need to read this file use the offset of the event start to determine where in this file to read read the date/time information from that file, and then create a marker at the start of the event and name that marker with the date/time info, suitably formatted for export to DVD subtitles (actually I think it needs to be a region if it is to be exported to a subtitle file).Īnyway, the project is definitely something that can be done, and would be something I'd personally love to have, but is is several hours of time that I just don't have right now.

The utility can be configured to output the stamp information in different formats and in different intervals, if you desire. This gives you the date/time info for the AVI file. The date is March 18, 2006, and the time is 5:56 in the evening. It created a file that looks like this: 00000001 06 03 18 17 56 08Ġ0000668 06 03 18 17 56 31As you can see, these are NTSC 30 fps frame numbers, each one second apart (except for the first few). Opened a DV AVI file, and pressed "start" (no setup or anything). However, it will require a little "programming" to get the format into something that DVD Architect will understand. OK, I just played around with the utility mentioned at the end of my last post.

If you know AVISynth, it can be used to also put the info into a text file: Here is an AVISynth utility that reads the date/time and puts it on the video. Export markers as subtitles, import those subtitles into DVDA, and I think you've got what you want, unless you absolutely need to have date/time down to the second.Ĭertainly this is what I've wanted to do for a long time. This will give you the date/time of the beginning of the event. Finally, create a marker and name it with the appropriate information from that text file. Next, extract the date/time information from the video on that track using a utility similar to the one in the link above (although that utility may not give you the option of putting the info into a text file). The date/time information will come from the video on this track.

The way I would do this would be to designate one track as the "master" track. While I agree that you would not want to put a different subtitle up for every frame of video, I would think that it would be quite sufficient to have a single subtitle for every video event. That gives you some of what you are looking for. However, there are several utilities, such as this one:Ī very, very nice Date/Time stamper for DV files This is true of other information on the tape, such as exposure, closed caption, etc. I also don't think there is any API call to let you get at it via a script. Vegas does display this information in the project view, but unlike timecode information, it doesn't make it available via an fX.

If I understand the request, I think this is possible, although unfortunately not entirely within Vegas itself.
