Importing Original Date Time from DV

[muaddib.69]

Hi,

I have a sony digital camera with some home videos. Whenever I play them on the camera, I can see on the bottom left side of the viewer.

Now I will use Acrobat Adobe Premiere Pro CS3 to capture the video, store in the computer and make some home DVD media, and I would like to import that metadata (date/time) info to computer as well ... the perfect way would be to have a video clip with the main movie, and a secondary video clip with date/time, so if I overlap them, I could check that info to split or just consult the individual parts.

Can I do that? Which software would do that?


Thanks

I, too, was wondering if it's possible.

Does anyone have any suggestions on this?

Thanks a lot.

If you mean a digital camcorder and you are capsferring to DV-AVI then the time/date stamp is part of the video, just not visible. There is a virtualdub filter from Thomas Hargrove called AddTimeStamp that allows you to display it and define where on the screen.

I've found this software http://www.dts8888.com/vDTS/vdts.htm
Although it won't do what you asked for

... the perfect way would be to have a video clip with the main movie, and a secondary video clip with date/time, so if I overlap them, I could check that info to split or just consult the individual parts.

but still looks very useful (haven't tried it myself though)

Capture the DV with our (free) Enosoft DV Processor and burn the date/time on to the video while it is being captured. No post-processing required.
