I've switched to Mac recently and am using it to capture video via firewire from a Sony Mini-DV camcorder. The resulting file is a .mov file. On a windows PC, the captured file was an .avi and there are several utilities that can capture the original recording date and time for each scene and either superimpose it on the .avi video in the corner of the screen, or output it as a subtitle script for DVD software like Adobe Encore. Does anything like this exist for .mov files? I've searched everywhere and can't find anything like this. On Windows, I used a utility called DVSubtitles, which seems to parse through the .avi file frame by frame, pulling out the original recording date and time as logged by the camcorder when the scene was originally filmed. You can actually see a frame counter zipping along as the software moves through the .avi file to pull the data. Can anyone point me to where I can learn to parse through .mov files to do the same thing? I started looking at Quicktime "atoms", but atoms seem to be descriptors for an entire .mov file; not a frame by frame metadata repository.
