The DATECODE is not an integral part of the picture. Camera makes it visible on
screen using 2 parts: there is a marker holding the date and time of the clip
start, and there is a calculatable timeline for every clip based on frame
count.
When you capture from tape, this data is still part of the DV file. At least,
this is true for both my Digital 8 (SONY DCR TRV820) and MiniDV (Canon HV10)
cameras and soft I use to capture (I've never used PP for capturing yet). There
are various tools to burn DATECODE as part of image or to make subtitles from
it. Look at http://www.skydiver.de/stef/datecode_en.htm

P.S. I'd greatly appreciate if somebody point my attention to some tool which
can generate subtitle file from my DV/DVCPRO-NTSC files. All tools mentioned on
the page above, either say this is not proper AVI file, or freeze with no
output.
Both QuickTime (version 6 only) and CatDV easily recognize the DATECODE, but
don't create subtitle files.
