hi there
I am trying to add time code to a dvd I am producing . It is voxpops and i need to be able to have the client to be able to tell me what bits he needs kept in from the raw footage.
I added in the time code effect to the clip before I render it and it seems to be working fine I can see it in Vegas and in DVD architect but when the dvd is prooduced it is not showing on my dvd player. Any ideas. I am in real stum with this.
Thanks
if you can see t on your preview window an in DVD-A then I can see no reason why a DVD player would show it as it is burned in.
is it within the safe area for titles, in case the TV screen zoomed in a bit and so off the screen, is it 4:3 or 16:9?
Can you see it if you play the DVD in the PC?
ok so I don't know Vegas and don't know how used to it you are but.....
are you adding BITC or asking Vegas to show you TC?
I only ask because I had a similar oproblem ages ago and realised that I ws getting the edit package to display TC rather than adding it to the video.
I am adding it as an effect. My feeling is that if I can see it in the dvd architect then I should be able to see it on the finished DVD . It might be teh case that it is outside the safe area but I doubt it.
Hi Cheema
No I can't see the time code in the media player either. Doing some work for Diageo Ireland would you believe.

Can you sent me a VEG file with some generated media and the TC on it so I can try it out for you, there should be no reason it is no there if you have burned it onto the video
Or a small MPEG of your clip so I can try in DVD-A and see if I get the same as you...
Another thought is DVD-a set to the correct format that Vegas is set to , eg 16:9 PAL...
Hi Cheema
My email is down at the moment. I'll try to send it on to you tomorrow. Trying afew things at the moment.
Thanks for your help.

Got it working on a tiny veg file, looks like I may have had some setting wrong.
