Timecode vs. content scene detection

Postby Peru » Tue Oct 13, 2009 1:42 pm

I read this, but I'm a little still confused about the difference between scene detection with and without timecode:

Does timecode split it at a change of date only, whereas without timecode it splits it when it detects that the camera was stopped and then started recording again? :???:

By timecode creates a new clip everytime there is a break in the timecode.
By scene detection creates a new clip when the program assumes the scene has changed.

By "timecode" do you mean "date"?
Please bear with me... I can be a little thick, sometimes. :-s

Timecode is date and time. Basically every time you pause or stop the camera, that is a change in timecode and it will be interpreted as a break and create a new file.

Scene detection is just programming that attempts to analyze the picture content and "guess" when a scene changes. Not the same thing at all...
