9. Entering a Timecode Offset
9.1. Context of Use
Imagine the logs and the recordings are made in different locations or on two different
setups with a timecode offset between the two. For example, the images are recorded live
at the event while the loggers work in a studio, with IPLogger on their laptop. The log
entries receive the PC timecode of the laptop and the recordings have the actual live
timecode.
When the clips are associated to the logsheet, the timecodes of the clips and the logs will
not match and you need to enter an offset. This timecode offset will be applied when:
• importing a logsheet on a setup or
• importing all the media related to a logsheet.
9.2. Limitations
The TC Offset is available only when:
• the logsheet is not locked
• the user has the appropriate rights to modify the logsheet
• there are log entries in the logsheet
9.3. How to Define a Timecode Offset to
Synchronize Existing Logs and Clips
A tool is available to synchronize the timecode of the logs with the timecode of the clips
associated to the logsheet. To enter a timecode offset between logs and clips, proceed as
follows:
1. Click File > TC Offset
The following window opens:
