Original timestamp and datestamp in subtitle of video

Postby animalfarm79 » 07 Nov 2021 10:05

Hello. I checked your forum and already found out how to insert the computer system date in the menu Tools / Preferences / All / Marquee / Tekst / [%d.%m.%Y %H%M%S], as a subtitle. But that’s not what I need. As a reseacher, I need the original recording metadata in every video replay, not the time and date of the current replay of the movie.

 I need (automatically) the timestamp and datestamp of “the recording metadata” as a marquee subtitle, when I replay every videofile. I need to see the original time and date in my video.

 I want to be able to take VLC-snapshots of every movie, with the original date- and timestamp included in every snapshot. When I take a snapshot at this moment, the marquee subtitle with date and time is not included in the snapshot...

Thank you for your support. Kind regards. Please give me a simple solution, because I am really not a IT-professional...

Hello, I'm looking for a way to display date/time metadata stamp when video replay, and I looked into VLC, but it looks like it will display only current date/time. I was wondering whether you found a solution to your issue. Could you please recommend how to solve this, please?
Thanks, R.
