Hi,

I want to add the project timecode as a Text+ field in my project. I want the project timecode to be displayed exactly the same as it is in the top-right corner of the video pane on the Edit tab:

(or indeed, the timecode window from Workspace->Timecode Window)

I guess I could use Workspace->Data Burn In->Rec Timecode, but then I have to live with the prefix "REC TC: ".

So, what I want to do is use the Text+ field with an expression.

If I set my expression to:

Code: Select all
Text(MediaIn1.Output.Metadata)


then the text is set to "table: 0x025ecfef20a8"

But if I set my expression to

Code: Select all
Text(MediaIn1.Output.Metadata.Timecode)


then the expression doesn't return any text. What expression shoudl I use and where can I go to see the structure of the metadata table?
