cannon mv500i date capture on pc

Bugsie · 22-12-2007, 2:24 PM

Help please. I have a Cannon MV500i. On the screen and when watching on TV I can see the date ( for 5 seconds) of the filming. However, I cannot get the 5 second date to appear when I download it to my PC through the firewire. Any ideas please?

The date is metadata and unless you capture as analogue with the display on is usually not going to be displayed with firewire
I say Usually
Have a look
Time Code and Firewire
The Linked utility in that thread can enable you display date and timecode via firewire capture apparently
I guess unless there is a security or forensic reason nobody wants to see that on thier video , it is probably impossible to remove with editing
