  • 1.  timecode and EDL

    Hello, I'm doing a show that the format is 1080i 59,94 and Non-Drop timecode. I have an evertz 5600 time code gen set for non-drop, but the switcher sees it as drop frame, indicated (I'm guessing) by the semi-colon between seconds and frames, The EDL displays a TC error and switches to internal. Is the error because of the mix between 59.94 and non-drop? I have recorders on board my cameras that is taking raw 4k video and need non-drop TC, and a 59.94 for a line cut. Can the internal TCG jam to the external?

    No you can not Mix Non-Drop with 59.94. That won't work as the timecode needs to match the frequency base.
