Can we display date and time in a movie

I am filming a production process and would love to be able to display time of day as the video is playing.
I can see this info while editing, but I don't know if iMovie'11 will let me display this info onto the movie itself? I need to pass these clips to someone who doesn't have any editing tools, but they will be interested to review the events on the tape relative to the time of day that they occurred.
It would be cool if iMovie had a title effect that 1) displays time and date info, 2) let's the user edit the format of the displayed date and time, and finally, 3) lets the user move this title information to a location in the tape that won't obstruct the critical elements of the movie.

Thanks Appleman 1958!
This helps, but to your point, it doesn't show seconds, and it doesn't show frames (for the video purists out there).
Limited to no more detail than minute data, it is not too useful for me, but I could see this being fun in a fast motion shot.
Also nice for capturing day and time of day information for a vacation video.
For my application, all activity took place in 5 hours, and I would need to see down to the second (and ideally the frame) when specific actions took place.
It would be awesome if Apple would let us
1) edit displayed information (lets say for example turn off date, but show hours minutes seconds and frames)
2) edit the font & font size
3) allow flexible placement of the information window. The default location may be where major action is.
Again, thanks for pointing out this title!

  • Displaying Date and Time in portal desktop

    Hi
    I have been looking around for any info or guideline to display the <b>date and time</b> in the portal desktop. I could not find anything very helpfull. In visual admin you can swap lastname and firtsname and vice versa. Thou there is nothing about displaying date and time.
    Is it possible to display it and how?
    Thank you for any information

    I have checked the box "display date and time on the Menu Bar" and it does not work.  Using OS X Yosemite 10.10.2  Anybody have a fix?

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a test, not a solution. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    Step 1
    The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is localized to your user account.
    Enable guest logins* and log in as Guest. Don't use the Safari-only “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac.”
    While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your documents or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this behavior; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin.
    Test while logged in as Guest. Same problem?
    After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it.
    *Note: If you’ve activated “Find My Mac” or FileVault, then you can’t enable the Guest account. The “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac” is not the same. Create a new account in which to test, and delete it, including its home folder, after testing.
    Step 2
    The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
    Please take this step regardless of the results of Step 1.
    Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you turn on the computer, and again when you log in.
    Note: If FileVault is enabled in OS X 10.9 or earlier, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
    Safe mode is much slower to start up and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal startup may also be somewhat slow.
    The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
    Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
    After testing, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of Steps 1 and 2.

    Your question is certainly lacking some information.
    If you want a constantly updating date/time - then JavaScript is your best bet, and Google would find you examples like [url http://www.webestools.com/scripts_tutorials-code-source-7-display-date-and-time-in-javascript-real-time-clock-javascript-date-time.html]this
    If you meant something else, then it's back to you to explain.

  • Display date and Time in Oracle Application Express Page

    Hi
    I have a requirement of showing the date and time in the top left corner of the page which should be updated at all times . The format is DD-MON-YYYY HH24:MI:SS.
    I am able to display the date but not the time . Also the time should be updating on its own to the last second.
    Another requirement is that on selecting a particular value from the drop down the table values displayed should be filtered
    Thanks in advance for helping me out
    you can also send in the responses to [email protected]
    Regards
    Jude Franco

    Hello,
    I am able to display the date but not the time Probably due to your NLS settings not displaying the time component for dates. However you can manually specify the output format like this -
    jes@DBTEST> select to_char(sysdate, 'HH24:MI:SS DD-MON-YYYY') as TS from dual;
    TS
    10:47:45 10-DEC-2008
    Another requirement is that on selecting a particular value from the drop down the table values displayed should be filtered Really need more details on that (remember assume that we know nothing about your requirements other than what you tell us). However at a high-level you need to include the drop down value in the query predicate used for your report, for example -
    select
      e.ename,
      e.sal
    from
      emp e
    where
      e.deptno = NVL(:P1_DEPTNO, e.deptno)Would use the value from the P1_DEPTNO select list (presumably displaying department names) and use it to filter the result. The NVL is there so that if no dept is selected then the query by default shows all the records.
    Hope this helps,
    John.

  • How can i change date and time after importing a file

    hello
    i'm importing AVI files first in iMovie because Final doesn't support (other question i put in) but when i see the scenes form 1993 they have the date 2004.
    i believe 2004 is the date i put them on the computer.
    Now i looked in the help files Final Cut Pro but cant find anything to adjust the date and time.
    it works well in iMovie using the help files:
    Right-click the clip you wish to edit and click Adjust Clip Date and Time from the menu that appears. Or click on Archive and than adjust date and time
    But as i said i cant import the files in FCP have to import them to  iMovie files adjust the date and than import to Final Cut Pro but than de changes i made to the date and time  are gone and in FCP 2004 is again the date of the file!!!
    Question how can i Change in Final Cut Pro the date and time in a same way as iMovie does?
    Jemajoro

    OK, I think I understand what you are saying but it still does not look like it is doing it as you describe.
    Here is another screen shot.
    Note that all clips in "2007 August" event have the date of Aug x, 2007.
    Yet, the event "2007 August" still shows up under the 2012 "folder" (is that the right terminology?).
    The newest clip in this event is Aug 31, 2007 so shouldn't it be categorized as 2007 and not 2012?
    I think you know this but I am using the following feature:
    Go to the sprocket icon under the events.
    Select "Group events by date" and then by "group events by year and month"
    Thanks again for all the help

  • Can't set date and time automatically thru Airport Extreme

    We have an Airport Extreme that serves as the router for our home network. No computer using the Airport (wirelessly or via ethernet) can set it's date and time automatically. If I bypass the Airport and hook a computer directly to the ISP's modem via ethernet, date and time works fine. The Airport is up to date (v7.4.2) This has been a problem for quite a while now and it doesn't matter what OS is used (current is 10.6). I don't have any firewalls set up that I know of.
    Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated.

    +No computer using the Airport (wirelessly or via ethernet) can set it's date and time automatically.+
    It's done with AirPort Utility, not your computer.

  • Automatically displaying date and time in a date/time field on form initialize

    Good day all;
    I am trying to have the current date and time automatically be generated in a “date/time” field when the form is opened.
    I went through the forum and found an entry from Srini “ xfa.host.messageBox("" + Date());” . Of course this brought up a system message box with the date and time.
    I then tried “DateTimeField1.rawValue = (“”+date())… This also gave me a system message box with the date and time…
    Please let me know where I am going wrong
    Chomp

    Found the answer... And yes... in was in the "help" section... What can I say I was making it a lot more crazy than I needed to.
    You can use a date/time field to automatically show the current date by using the Runtime Property option in the Value tab of the Object palette.
    When using a current date field, the date updates to reflect the system’s current date each time a user opens the form.
    1.
    In the Library palette, click the Standard category and drag a Date/Time Field object onto the form design.
    2.
    In the Object palette, click the Value tab and select Calculated - Read Only from the Type list.
    3.
    Select the Runtime Property option.
    4.
    View the form in the Preview PDF tab.

  • System Preferences can't set date and time and other odd behaviour

    I have a 2008 Macbook Air, which is beginning to show signs of age, but now appears to have taken on a terminal problem.  I can't set the date and time in the system preferences, even when connected to the internet - the pane just comes up as faded out and I am unable to do anything. The problem started after I accidentally allowed the battery to run down without having shut down the computer and it automatically assumed a date of 1 Jan 2001. I am unable to perform any updates on the machine until the issue is resolved, according to software update.
    Other strange things that have happened are that the trackpad no longer responds to the 'tap to click' function or 'two finger' click. In system preferences, I cannot edit energy saver, network (advanced) or account settings - attempting to do so brings up more faded panels or an error message after failure to load.
    Has anyone seen similiar behaviour on their mac or have suggestions as how I might resolve the problem?
    Thanks!

    If this is recent, what has changed since the last time D&T worked correctly?
    I see that your Question has languished for some period of time without response. You have posted your issue in Using Apple Support Communities whose topic is 'How to use this forum software's interface, features and/or how to find what you wish'. It is a relatively low traffic and inappropriate forum for your problem. I will ask our Hosts to move it to " Using iPhone " where it may get a more rapid response from your fellow users.

  • Can't set date and time, stuck on that screen. Also don't have ANY apps at all.

    Whats up Apple? My Apple TV is only a few months old. Can't set the date and time and now have ZERO apps. All that shows is the "Computer" and "Settings" after staring at that spinning wheel for an hour and finally clicking menu.

    Assuming this is not the first time you have used your Apple TV
    You might try restarting the Apple TV by removing ALL the cables for 30 seconds.
    Also try restarting the router.
    If the problem persists, try a restore, you may want to try the previous procedures several times before doing this.
    If restoring from the Apple TV doesn't help, try restoring from iTunes using a USB cable.
    If this is a new Apple TV, it may also be that your network router is not allowing access to the timeserver, check that your router allows access over port 123.

  • Can't change date and time

    Just purchased an Envy 7640. I got it set up correctly to run wirelessly, and can print from all my machines. However, I can't change the date and time. I got into Settings>Preferences>Date and confirm the date and click Done, then go into Time, and change the time, and again click Done. However, it never actually changes, and I see a "Date/Time Not Set" on the main screen.

    Hello @JeffK_1969, 
    Welcome to the HP forums.
    I understand that your Envy 7640 is not accepting the date and time.
    I would like to help.
    Reset the printer
    Press the Power button to turn on the printer.
    With the power on, disconnect the power cord from the rear of the printer.
    Wait 60 seconds.
    Reconnect the power cord to rear of the printer.
    Press the Power button to turn on the printer.
    Then try to set the date and time again.
    If it still will not accept teh date and time, I would call technical support,
