Need some help with post problem

Post by Doctor »

Hi All,

I'm having some serious problems getting a SMPTE code burned onto a quicktime video. First of all, I have a bit of a hard time trying to follow thru the pdf Compressor manual with these old eyes, though I know that the info is in there.

Some simple help would be great. Just need to take a QT mov file and burn SMPTE onto it for setting up markers for effects and start writing some music score. Is there not a free utility for this type of thing? I just can't afford another penny.

Thanks for reading. Any help would be greatly appreciated
thanks

Can't be done in Compressor, but since you have that, do you have Final Cut Pro? If so, do it there with the Effects>Video>Timecode Generator.
