IM and DPX sequence TC

Post by boltown »

Hi! I have a sequence of 200 DPX files and I need to cange their timecode to 24 fps starting at 00:00:00:00. I don't know is how to tell imagemagick to add one frame to each timecode change 01,02,03,04.etc.

Code: Select all

convert '*.dpx' -define dpx:television.time.code=00:00:00:00 outfile%04d.dpx

any help will be very appreciated.
TIA, agustin

You need a script to update the time-code in each of your DPX frames. You can do this in bash or perhaps PerlMagick.
