frame calculation when 00:00:00:00

[siongwai]

Hi,

I am comparing with another library (Timecode) on frame calculation.

I am using 00:00:00:00 as my starting timecode, then I return the total frame count.

dftt_Timecode is return 0 frame while Timecode is return as 1 frame

I think 00:00:00:00 is consider as 1 frame, but I am not very sure as I am new to video timecode world.

Hi,

Currently the DfttTimecode class is more like a 'pointer' to a certain moment of time, but not representing a period of time. So 'framecount' here actually means 'the cursor is at the xx frame on a timeline'.

Maybe you're finding a function which returns the frames included in a period of time. Or a cursor that occupies a certain width on a timeline.

This feature is on the roadmap of this library, named 'timerange'. I am currently working on it.

Best regards.
