When I open a source file in ffmpeg, it can read the embedded timecode and
current framerate and put them in the stdout, looking perhaps something
like this
{{{
Input #0, mov,mp4,m4a,3gp,3g2,mj2, from 'infile.mov':
[...]
Duration: 00:00:30.53, start: 0.000000, bitrate: 186 kb/s
Stream #0:0[0x1](eng): Video: h264 (High) (avc1 / 0x31637661),
yuv420p(progressive), 480x270 [SAR 1:1 DAR 16:9], 37 kb/s, 30 fps, 30 tbr,
15360 tbn (default)
Metadata:
handler_name : VideoHandler
vendor_id : FFMP
encoder : Lavc57.16.101 libx264
timecode : 01:02:03:04
}}}
A user can then manually copy the "30 fps" and "01:02:03:04" from the
stdout in the console window and run ffmpeg a second time with a command
like
{{{
ffmpeg -i infile.mov -vf
"drawtext=timecode=\'01\:02\:03\:04\':timecode_rate=30:fontfile=\'arial.ttf\':fontcolor=white"
outfile.mov
}}}
but it would be great if the timecode and framerate could be passed from
whatever part is printing them to stdout into drawtext/timecode and
drawtext/timecode_rate, then drawtext could be used to burn in whatever
the current timecode is without any mucking around with copy/paste
commands or grep in bash etc
