Hello everyone, Thank you, this has been very helpful! So I think I have two options:
- Wait until Matroska fully supports timecodes, which might take a while. - Or continue to use Quicktime, but with FFV1. Not as open and free, but supports timecode data. This would be a somewhat unusual way to go, I suppose. > On 3.
