MTC offset #24

Open markedsoftware opened 6 years ago

markedsoftware commented 6 years ago

Sending MTC from Logic X 10.4 on one machine to a mac mini running jadeo 0.8.7 over midi. Logic defaults to TC starting at 01:00:00:00. Using the offset menu and subtracting 1 hour only subtracts 59 mins 56 secs.

Any ideas? There isnt an option to offset by seconds. OSD of incoming timecode shows that is all synced, and the video has TC burnt into it so I can see it's playing from the wrong point.

Thanks all.

That difference sounds like the difference between drop frame and not drop frame timecode. It would lose/gain 4 seconds an hour. Did you solve this?

That sounds like it makes sense.

I gave up and invested in videoslave.. thanks for the tip though - good to learn!
