Adding a time stamp

How do I add a time stamp to video clips using the date and time the video was taken?

GreenRoom
What version of Premiere Elements are you using and on what computer operating system is it running.
Premiere Elements (any version) does not have a built in feature for "adding a time stamp".
What you can do is use the DVDate Plug-in for Premiere Elements for that task. Please see
http://dvdate.ru/
Please read details of the DVDate Plug-in in Item 0014 of my Premiere Elements 12 Daily Discovery blog post
ATR Premiere Elements Troubleshooting: Premiere Elements 12 Daily Discoveries
We will be looking forward to news of the outcome.
Thank you.

Adding date/time stamp to images

Hi all, we are working with multiples video sources with JMF. Now we need to add on each stream a date/time stamp and a name of the source camera.
Does someone knows how we can do it without manipulate each frame on each source ?
Thanks in advance and best regards.

Time stamp dropping seconds

I figure someone has had this problem before but didn't see it in the forum anywhere. I'm adding a time stamp to a file so I've used the "Get Time/Date in Seconds" and wired that to a "Convert to DBL". This then wires both into an indicator on the Front Panel and into the "Write to Measurement File" Express VI.
The indicator displays the time stamp just fine but in the file it puts it into scientific notation and cuts off the last 4 digits as well as any fractional seconds. The time stamp writes to the file every 5 seconds so it is important to have the rest of the time stamp included. I've tried using probes on the wires to see where things go weird but I get the same truncated value in the wire before and after the indicator. I thought it had something to do with the Express VI first since the indicator is fine but with it truncated in the wire it seems that the Express VI is indeed saving exactly what is handed to it...but then again the indicator...you can see I've been running in circles over this! Does anybody know the reason it is doing this and a possible solution?
Thanks a lot!
Solved!
Go to Solution.

I can't post the exact code because it is being developed for use outside our lab but I've recreated the basics of the problem. The array would be the collected data and except some filename details and things like that everything relevant to the time and saving is included. Also settings in the express VI are the same. Not sure if it will help out.

I have a psts on my mac and the time stamp hasnt changed since i added this to the mac even though they have been imported?

i have a psts on my mac and the time stamp hasnt changed since i added this to the mac even though they have been imported?
where is the data stored when i moves messages to the imported pst?
after serval months of rebuidling and creating new identites for Outlook for mac2010 any reasons why this is constantly happening?

I am not sure what you mean by this.
is it ok to delete outlook ID's copy/backup as running out of space?
If you mean you have several identities in the Office Identities folder then yes. You can delete whatever you don need\want except for your current.
Are you updated to the latest version of Office?
After the restore, navigate to ~/Documents/Microsoft User Data/Office 2011 Identities/your identity and delete the file called Database. Then rebuild.

Append two files with added time stamp

Hi experts,'
MY Requirement is I need to pick two files from two different FTP Locations and append them to file receiver FTP Location with Added timestamp.
How to achive this as with append we do not get option of adding time stamp.
Other thing is I want all the appended files should be there in Receiver folder means like if we get two files today they should be appended to one and shld be put in Receiver folder then two files for tomorrow and they shoud be appended as a separate file in Receiver Folder.
How to achive this??
Regards,
Nidhi

Hi Nidhi,
>>MY Requirement is I need to pick two files from two different FTP Locations and append them to file receiver FTP Location with Added timestamp
Use BPM and pick the two files
>>Other thing is I want all the appended files should be there in Receiver folder means like if we get two files today they should be appended to one and shld be put in Receiver folder then two files for tomorrow and they should be appended as a separate file in Receiver Folder.
Use variable substitution and create the directory and filename dynamically...
Use Dynamic configuration module in receiver adapter and do as specified in this blog:

Adding a Date/Time stamp to videos already created

We have someone using Elemets 8
They need to add in the date/time stamp to video's that are already created.
The camcorder we have does record this information but doesn't allow that information to be put onto the screen its a Canon HD HF200
We were told by Adobe support we can do this but they wanted $39 plus $39 an hour.
Anyone out there able to tell me how we can get this done for free

PrE lacks the TimeCode Effect (unless it has been added in PrE 10?), that both PrPro and Adobe After Effects has. However, even that Effect does not do date/time, just Runtime TimeCode, but with some display alternatives.
There are two programs called DVDate. One is/was freeware, and the other was inexpensive shareware. I do not have the two links handy, but believe that either will do what the user wishes.
I know that in the past, one valued contributor, Neale, has posted the links, and has also given the details of what each of the programs can, and cannot do. Maybe he'll drop by this thread, and fill in the blanks that I am leaving here.
Good luck,

Adding time stamp to table/array

Hi,
In my posted VI I am displaying some collected temperature data on a table. What I am having trouble with is getting the time data to work properly on the table. When I set the include time data to true, it reads out the time as 1904 etc. I'm not sure if it's possible for me to include a time stamp in my array because when I try to convert a time stamp to a double precision float, the output is still a cluster, and thus cannot be added to the array. I've also tried to convert the array to a string and concatenate the time stamp on, but the signals input for the table does not accept strings, and because I would eventually like to export this table to a spreadsheet in a file, I don't really want to link the strings to the indicator directly. I've tried to work with the instrument as well, but when I read time data from it it gives it back in the form of multiple numbers, such as 2008, 8, 28, 13, 30, 31.12 and I can't consolidate it to one number. Needless to say, I'm a little stumped and am open to suggestions on how to fix this problem, whether its a quick fix or a change in the way I'm trying to record the data.
Thanks in advance,
Mike

Automated Thermal Testing Table.vi ‏75 KB

Here are the sub VI's that I'm using. The inner while loop is designed so that the loop will halt immediately when stopped, and not have to finish its current iteration, as the iteration period is intended to be rather long. I may modify the program to have a programmable start/stop time later, but this is at least my temporary solution. The purpose of the decimate array function is to seperate out the channel label from the actual data so they can be placed as headers in the Excel function. The intent was likely not clear with the lack of the SubVI's. Overall, the display table on the front panel is no longer necessary, it was just for me to see how the table was working in the early stages of development.
The one issue I had with your suggestion is the fact that I the build waveform function only accepts a 1-D array for the waveform input, and with multiple and variable number of channels being used I'm not sure how I could easily manipulate the data I gather into multiple 1-d arrays.
As always the help is appreciated,
Mike

Adding time stamp to the field

Hi,
All
I need to pass the Current Date and Time Stamp to the Target Field
For Current Date there is a Standard Function Is There ,For Time stamp Is there any Standard Function is there or we Need to write write UDF ,if we need to write to UDF Please provid Java Code for that.
Marks is awardble
Thnx in advance
Regards
kumar

Hi,
Using this java code you can get both Date and Time...
import java.util.Date;
Date d = new Date();
return d.toString();
The format returned will be like this "Tue Dec 26 12:15:24 IST 2006"
To change the format, you can use get methods( getDate(), getHours() ) of Date class and concatenate them.

Adding time stamp while archiving the file in b2b

Hi
I want to add the time stamp when archiving the file when I am using file/ftp channel. can anybody tell me how can I do that. otherwise it is overwriting the exising file in archive directory.
Thanks
Sri

Hi Sri,
otherwise it is overwriting the exising file in archive directory.It might be happening because inbound files are not having unique name. You have two options -
1. Make sure that inbound files have unique name (you may add timestamp in inbound filename format)
2. Do not use the archive feature of Oracle B2B. Instead use a transport callout to write a copy of incoming document into desired directory with desired filename. To know more about callout offering of Oracle B2B, please refer -

Appending and add time stamp at a time........

Hi all,
i am working on a scenario...
it is file based..no mapping and bpm can be used.
I need to pick up file through xi and append it and put in the target with time stamp to it.
we can achieve this if mapping or bpm is allowed.....
But,in file processing we can use only one option at a time.....
I found a way:
scenario one: files will be appened and kept in a temparory folder
using another scenario we will pick up the appeneded file and add time stamp and keep in target structure...
but i dont think this is advisable...
please suggest me any other ways to achieve this...(can run operating system command be helpfull??)
thanks in advance..
Regards,
Kiran.

HI,
Yes you are right, Appending and adding Time Stamp will not be possible simultaneously.
Refer - this could help you
Dynamic Filename with TimeStamp
Dynamic Filename with TimeStamp
/people/william.li/blog/2006/04/18/dynamic-configuration-of-some-communication-channel-parameters-using-message-mapping
But some how you have to use mapping for it. Then if its allowed to use the mapping then as you have suggested, should have to go for two scenarios. No alternative,
Probably also you can try with Customized Adapter Module for this.

Changing time stamp format in the file receiver adapter file name

Hi all,
How can we change the standard date time stamp from
filename_yyyymmdd-hhmmss-mil
to
filename_yymmdd_hhmmss
i.e., I want "underscores" instead of "hyphens" and also I do not want the MilliSeconds.
I read in the forums that I have to use the combination of variable substitution and mapping functions to do this, but not sure how exactly.
Can the experts help me with this please?
Many thanks.

Hello Ramesh,
     You can make this possible using runtime filename creation using UDF.
Please go though the below steps.
Message mapping:
Create an UDF and include the piece of code that captures the Filename and Timestamp from source side via ASMA.
Modify them according to our requirement by adding the <Timestamp> at the end of <filename> with _.
Map the UDF to any of the top level node so that the modified filename will be available for the target communication channel
UDF Code is:
try {
String filename    = "";
String timestamp = "";
DynamicConfiguration conf1 = (DynamicConfiguration) container
    .getTransformationParameters()
    .get(StreamTransformationConstants.DYNAMIC_CONFIGURATION);
DynamicConfigurationKey key1 = DynamicConfigurationKey.create( "http:/"+"/sap.com/xi/XI/System/File","FileName");
DynamicConfigurationKey key2 = DynamicConfigurationKey.create( "http:/"+"/sap.com/xi/XI/System/File","SourceFileTimestamp");
filename = conf1.get(key1);
timestamp = conf1.get(key2);
filename = filenametimestamp".xml";
filename = filename.replaceAll( "-" ,"_" );
conf1.put(key1,filename);
return filename;
catch(Exception e)
     String exception = e.toString();
      return exception;
Click on Advanced tab and check the Option u201CSetAdapterSpecificMessageAttributesu201D in addition to that check the attribute that are required to be captured during run time. In our case File Name and Source File Time Stamp are required to be checked
In the receiver communication channel Mention u2018 * u2018as File Name Scheme.
Click on Advanced tab and check the Option u201CSetAdapterSpecificMessageAttributesu201D in addition to that check the attribute u201CFile Nameu201D which will carry the modified value in the UDF .
i hope this will help you.

Appending a creation date/time stamp to a filename using MS Command Language

I need to access the creation date and time of an existing file and then append that date/time to the filename using MS command language in a .bat file. The code executes on a Windows server. I'm looking at different options for doing
this. I know it can be done using MS Powershell scripting. Any other suggestions appreciated. Thanks
