The module LTCMBS

module LTCMBS
Type Topic Plugin Version macOS Windows Linux iOS Targets
module Timecode MBS Tools Plugin 20.1 ✅ Yes ✅ Yes ✅ Yes ✅ Yes All
The central module for global LTC methods.

This plugin part can load libltc, a library to encode and decode linear timecode.

Linear (or Longitudinal) Timecode (LTC) is an encoding of timecode data as a Manchester-Biphase encoded audio signal.
The audio signal is commonly recorded on a VTR track or other storage media.

libltc facilitates decoding and encoding of LTC from/to timecode, including SMPTE date support.

Constants

Constant Value Description
LTC_FRAME_BIT_COUNT 80 The bit count for a raw 80 bit LTC frame

Encoder and LTCframe flags

Constant Value Description
LTC_BGF_DONT_TOUCH 4 Encoder init or re-init does not touch the BGF bits (initial values after initialization is zero)
LTC_NO_PARITY 8 Parity bit is left untouched when setting or in/decrementing the encoder frame-number
LTC_TC_CLOCK 2 The Timecode is wall-clock aka freerun. This also sets BGF1 (unless LTC_BGF_DONT_TOUCH is given)
LTC_USE_DATE 1 LTCFrame <> SMPTETimecode converter and LTCFrame increment/decrement use date, also set BGF2 to '1' when encoder is initialized or re-initialized (unless LTC_BGF_DONT_TOUCH is given)

TV Standards

Constant Value Description
LTC_TV_1125_60 2 30fps
LTC_TV_525_60 0 30fps
LTC_TV_625_50 1 25fps
LTC_TV_FILM_24 3 24fps
