joave Posted October 29, 2010 Share Posted October 29, 2010 Does anyone know how to get timestamp offset? That is, sometimes we get video with burned-in timestamps that don't start at 0. They start at, say, 19:01:10. However the timestamp in ExpressScribe starts at 0. Does anyone know how to get an offset so the timestamp starts counting from 19:01:10?

Damian Lettie Posted October 31, 2010 Share Posted October 31, 2010 Does anyone know how to get an offset so the timestamp starts counting from 19:01:10? Select the dictation and click File -> "Dictation Information" and it's called "Time offset". (Must have Express Scribe v5.03 or later.) You may also need to change Options -> Display -> "Time mode".

joave Posted November 1, 2010 Author Share Posted November 1, 2010 Thank you, Guru. Is there a time limit to the offset? I see there's an entry in that window that says 45 minutes long. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damian Lettie Posted November 1, 2010 Share Posted November 1, 2010 I see there's an entry in that window that says 45 minutes long. Are you looking at the "Total duration" field? That's the duration of all the dictations that were selected when you opened the "Dictation Information" dialog, which won't effect the "Time offset" field.

joave Posted November 1, 2010 Author Share Posted November 1, 2010 Guru - thank you again. I now understand...i probably had a 45-minute file in the queue at the time. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
