Hal (and everyone) In television and radio broadcasting we use a time code that is a Manchester-encoded 2000 bps (50 Hz countries) or 2400 bps (60 Hz countries) signal which has been low-pass filtered (~7.5 KHz) so that it can be directly recorded on an analogue audio track. "EBU" is the "European Broadcasting Union", who collaborated with the US "SMPTE" ("Society of Motion Picture and Television Engineers") to come up with a common standard. The subtle difference between EBU and SMPTE variants is that the latter is usually "drop-frame" so that a count of 29.97 Hz NTSC frames better keeps track of real time. Google "SMPTE time code" for thousands of pages that will tell you more than you ever wanted to know :-)
