Navigate using frame numbers alone?

This must rank as a stupid question - how do I get Resolve to NOT turn my typed string of digits into timecode, rather than treating it as a frame count in the Edit page?

I find it weird that while timeline and source timecodes and frame counts are available in the Color page, it's the Edit page where you need that stuff most and it's timecode only, folks.

In this case I have to reconform an edit that consists of 23.98 clips erroneously cut in a 25 project - the timecode that's associated with the sources is essentially meaningless (Avid's calculated it based on frames at 25) but a frame count holds. I'd like to simply use that frame number to find the correct frame in the source and not have Resolve turn it into meaningless code for me. Neither the keyboard nor the Control Surface seems to offer a way to do that.

Or have I missed something here?

The timecode displays in the edit page have frame counts available in the contextual menu.
You can enter frames if the string of digits does not conform to a valid timecode. i.e. +25f =1:00 tc, but +200f = 2:00 tc.

I agree that it would be very useful to choose data entry as frames OR timecode.

Ah, you're right, they do, on a right click/crtl-click, unlike the Color page, where there's an explicit arrow. Wondered why I thought I'd seen them there, but couldn't find them again...

Yep, I'd suggest that when frames rather than TC is selected, it uses frames as entered rather than translating them. Feature request...

Has Blackmagic made any progress on this?

I'm in the exact same situation. I'm conforming 25fps media into a 24.98fps project. Timecode is useless but frame numbers are accurate. But Resolve seems to do no more than only display frame numbers. If I type in a frame number it switches back to timecode even though that's clearly not what I wanted.

Please someone tell me I've missed something...
