Enter numeric Timecode

PostWed Oct 20, 2021 11:20 am

Hi mate, sorry if anyone asked the same question. I've not found it... :-)

In DVR 17.3.2. some people can insert a timecode in the Edit Page simply pressing number. In the same versions other people needs to click on the timecode field to insert a number or pressing numbers doesn't work. What's wrong? Thanks for your attention!

The Equals, Plus or Minus keys will select the Timecode Reader in order to enter a user defined value.

Hi Reynaud thanks so much for your answer. Yes I know that but in most cases (for example in my case ahah) doesn't work at all. In version 16 it was really simple as you said just press +1.00 and move forward one second or move clip or move edit point etc. In V17 it worked for some release and now doesn't work. It's weird.... :roll: Now for everything I have to click on the timecode field.....

Check your Keyboard Customization. Search for 'timecode' then scroll down to Playback -> Go To -> Timecode, and see if the keyboard shortcuts have been removed or changed.

Thanks mate!
You're completely right. Something went wrong with my custom shortcut and timecode field was empty.
I didn't remember that you can assign those shortcuts :-)
So thanks to everyone. Problem solved. You're forum guys are great as always. Have a great week!
