Timecode for Drones

[JP4DESIGNZ]

Has anyone ever tried to add timecode to their Mavic 3 footage, or any drone? Just wondering what my options are. I'm thinking of attaching a timecode box to the RC Pro and see if it works with the cached files:

Another route I'm thinking is adding it in post with this software:

Has anyone had any success with this?

I haven't tried it myself and not sure if it will work with the Mavic 3.

I suppose it will.

It works with other cameras.

Here's some chatter about it on the Forum.

If your referring to adding the date/time stamp to your video, try here. I have used this program for the last 20 years, you can add the date and or time, determine where on the image you want it displayed and other options. You can do one photo or a group of photos, and also videos.

You can also just turn on Video Captions in the Fly App and use the created sidecar .SRT files by turning video captions "on" in your video player.

If you use GoPro cameas Hero 12 and 13, the earlier modesl Hero 7-11, Max firmware can be updated with GoProLabs firmware to enable timecode sync via QRCode before take-off. I use FutureVideo's Multi-View HD Pro 2 software (Windows only) to review the videos of all angles simultaneously on a single screen (which automatically syncs them). As far as DJI video files, I am not sure if any of the drone videos captured have timecode sync'd to GPS, and if accessable. I also tried using GoPro GPS sync, but it's sort of flakey, and is not always providing the right timecode.
