Hi.
I'm new to Resolve, just started using it about two months ago. Recently upgraded to the Public Beta V17, if that matters for the following. I'm not a professional, just the "normal" Action-Cam-User looking for better ways to generate impressive Footage from hour-long, boring Videos
I have a Question on using Scripts on Nodes in the Fusion-Page of Davinci Resolve:
Is it possible to show the Timecode of the Source File with a Text+-Node?
I can look at the Metadata of the File by clicking on "Metadata" in the top right of the Window. There, I can see the "Start TC", thats the Date my Source File has.
I managed to get the current Frame Number (easy) and the current Frame Rate of the Timeline (took me some time), with this Information, I can calculate the Seconds from beginning of the clip. If I know now the "Start TC" of the Clip as shown in Metadata, I could calculate the "Real Live"-Timecode of each single Frame.
My goal is to do some kind of "Data Driven Overlay", I have a database with Metrics indexed by a Timestamp, which I want to lookup in a script and embed the result by using a "Text+" (or some other) Node.
So, question is: How do i get the Start Timecode of the currently active Clip in the Timeline?
Thanks a lot,
regards
Hans
