Hi Marton,

The issue with the out of sync TC was reproducible on all tapes and decks that we tested. I don't have the exact number now, but a few dozens, less than 100. They all had between 7 and 17 frames out of sync. We were not
able to obtain anything more in sync than 7 frames.

The TC sync was tested by setting up the deck to "burn" the TC with the image while capturing the content with TC through ffmpeg. We then play the file in a player that supports timecodes and compare the burned-in TC with
the one captured in the metadata.

We used Decklink quad 2 and several Sony decks: J30, J3, JH3. We tested on multiple decks from each model and confirmed the issue was present + that Gyan's patch seemed to fix it. We have used several types of Betacam tapes and HDCAM tapes. I can not comment on whether this is the best solution,
but can confirm it works.

Let me know if you need more info.

Thanks,
ilinca

Ping.

Sorry, I need a bit more time to investigate.

OK, I did a couple of tests myself for HD and SD pal signals, and it seems to me if signal autodetection is used, so no format_code is specified then timecode is readily available in the first frame. I was using BlackMagic SDK 11.1 for testing by the way. Can you confirm the same behaviour with your setup?

So, were you able to reproduce the issue _with_  format_code specified?

I was able to reproduce the part where after starting the capture the decklink device records empty frames (with flag bmdFrameHasNoInputSource set) for a couple of frames.

I was not able to reproduce the part where the timecode was earlier or later available then the first frame of the useful video signal.

Ok, thanks. I'll get back when I have more info.

Gyan
