TCP-50 Time Code Processor

The TCP-50 is a universal SMPTE/EBU longitudinal time code processor that provides a variety of needed time code functions to keep up with the changes and requirements of dealing with multi format longitudinal time code.

• Translates between 23.976/24/25/29.97 and 30-FPS frame rates. For example, SMPTE time code in at 29.97-FPS, EBU time code out at 25-FPS
• Substitute/replace input time code user bit data with manually entered user bit data on a "nibble-by-nibble" basis
• Introduce any amount of positive or negative time offset, from frames to hours, between the input time code and output time code
• Adjust phase relationship of the output time code with respect to the input time code or video
• Repair bad time code due to noise, dropouts, damaged/missing bits, etc. Bad LTC in, good LTC out
• Read and display time code and user bits
• Time code analyzer measures and keeps track of common time code errors
• Multiple "on-screen" menus provide quick and easy user setup of TCP-50 operation
• Add up to nine lines of twenty characters each of source ID information to the on-screen time code/user bit display
• Time Code Processor
