Timecode Reading

[Selur]

E.g. Original Frame Rate 29.98 - 00:05:43:28
New Frame Rate 23.98 (when using Hybrid) - 00:05:44:04

Because ':28' can't exist in the new frame rate, some sort of conversion is happening that leads to an incorrect frame rate.

I'm confused.
When converting telecined 29.97fps content to 23.976fps via ivtc, the playback length of the clip does not change.
Since frame rate and frame count get changed in the same way.
I do not understand how a different the timecode could lead to an incorrect frame rate.
This timecode should only indicate the offset to another file and it should not have anything to do with the frame rate.
=> did you mean 'incorrect time stamp' instead of ' incorrect frame rate' ?

00:05:43:28 usually indicates 5min 43seconds and 28 frames. 343*29.98 +28 = 10.311 frames.
So assuming you are converting telecined 29.98fps content to 23.976fps by adjusting the frame count and the frame rate in the same way (ike ivtc does), the 28 frames would need to be adjusted.
When changing from 29.98fps to 23.976fps the 28 frames need to be converted to 28*23.976/29.98=22
So you would end up with 00:05:43:22 instead of 00:05:43:28.

Main problem I have with this is I'm totally unsure how to add this to the gui without overcomplicating this with tons of controls and at the same time be sure that this is applied only when needed.
=> Sorry, but I'm not going to implement this. I leave it to the user to adjust such time codes. Especially since the tiemcode usually indicates the offset to another file and Hybrid has no way of knowing whether the other file was changed like the current file will be changed by Hybrid.
