Video Time Stamp Removal

Does anyone know if there is a way to remove time stamps from a Hi8 8mm Video Cassette Tape? Or from the digitized version of said tape?

Hi
If You have the original tape and Camera - You turn of the feature on the Camera
and import via an analog/digital converter (or if Your Camera has digital FireWire out)
If You got Your material digitized with date&time stamp. Sorry - only way is to
make this area fuzzy/unsharp = as bad as if it is as it is.
Alternative: If You use iMovie'08 or FinalCut Express or Pro You can enlarge the
picture slightly so that the time&date stamp goes out of the viewable area.
But still often a bad solution.
Not even Pro companies as ABC and shows like AFV can magically erase this.
Recommendation: Make a new digital copy but this time with the time&date stamp
turned off. Absolutely the most pro-approach.

Date and Time Stamp Removal?

Does anyone know how to digitally remove the date and time stamp on the face of the photo once the photos are loaded in Aperture, short of doing re-touch? Working in Aperture 3.

ebigglesworth,
I too am curious about Frank's mention of the date and time removal tool.
As an aside to your comment:
I'd rather just be able to tell aperture I don't want the time stamp on the image, to remove it some how digitally, if that makes sense. You'd think it could just be backed out in some fashion.
That's impossible. Your camera made it impossible. Your camera threw out some pixel data of the real picture in favor of replacing it with yellow, white, and black pixels (or whatever color your timestamp is). Basically, the original photo information is completely lost. All you can do is smudge things (in one way or another) and make the best of it. It will never look completely right unless you use a pixel editor (which Aperture is not) and painstakingly put color in, pixel-by-pixel.

Video time stamp

Anyone know if it's possible to put a time stamp when recording video with the iPhone 4?
I'd like to be able to see the date and time of when the video was recorded, sort of the same way as on a regular camcorder.
Thanks!!

Dv video time stamp with analog input

Hi,
I have a dv video which I want to time stamp with a analog input. For the video, which is dv brought into the computer with ieee1394, LabView calls up a C++ program which then stores the video. Simultaneously, in the program which calls up the C++, an analog signal is also stored (seperately). I know it sounds tricky as well as messy but this is the best we've been able to work out, given the uncorroperative nature of LabView with dv camera. Does anyone have suggections for time stamping these two signals so that I know exactly where in the video the analog signal occurs? The PCI board we use is the NI 6014, which I know is timestamp capable, but I dont know if it can stamp the video feed since it doesnt come in through the NI card.
All thanks in advance for any help!
Daniel

Daniel,
Does your DV camera have any sort of timing or triggering signals? Without these, it will be virtually impossible to correlate measurements. It is cetainly possible to accurately time an analog input with your DAQ card, but correlating these to the digital video would be extremely difficult. Is this video streaming in real time? Or are you reading it off of an already-recorded tape? If this video is streaming in real time, with an acquisition started in software, I would suggest attempting to start the software DV reading at the same time as your DAQ task. If you do have an external signal that can trigger the video acquisition, then I would suggest using that same signal to start your analog acquisition.
Hope this helps,

How to get time stamp on Videos?

Hi,
When I tape only one video per day I also get the time stamp of that video. When I tape more than one, it does not show the time anymore.
How do I get the time stamp then???

Thanks for your answer.
When I enter the movies for a particular day, *I only see the length of the movie (not the time it was taped)*... I did the reset but this also did not help... hmm
Actually, you were correct all along & I was wrong. I took 5 videos today. No "time" stamp. Just the length of movie taped and when I moved the wheel clockwise & counter clockwise the month, day & year show up but not the time. hmm......
I checked all my old videos that I removed from my iPod Nano & noticed that I typed the time the videos were taken along with the date within the suffix.

Can you remove a date and time stamp off a photo that has already been taken?

Can you remove a date and time stamp off a photo that has already been taken?

only with Photoshop or similar software that offer some clone/heal feature.

How do you date and time stamp pictures and videos using a EOS Rebel T3?

I am needing to utilize date and time stamping on videos and photos in my work. The pictures and videos must display time, a date, and reference number. I have gone through the cd, owner's manuel and software manuel and I am unclear if I can perform this function.

While this is a relatively common feature on point & shoot cameras -- where the photo is thought of as a snapshot to document a memory in a person's life, among DSLR cameras it's not very common (I don't actually know of a DSLR that does this though I don't doubt that it may exist). DSLR users are usually expecting a higher quality image -- so now the image is thought of more like art and less like a snapshot and the date/time in the corner distracts from the image. Also they tend to be more advanced users who would be able to modify the image themselves so they have little need for such a feature.
The camera does record the date & time... but it's in the EXIF data (information recorded into the image file but not displayed).
SO... there are programs that will just do this. You'll need to do a search (I found several but have never tried one so I can't vouch for them). I think there are Photoshop plug-ins that do this (assuming you have Photoshop). These programs allow you to define the info you want printed (including EXIF data such as date/time) and you get to pick the location, font, size, color, etc. and ultimately the location on the image where you'd like the info displayed. They then add the info visibly onto the image for you and most support "batch" use (e.g. drop a whole folder of images on it and they'll do them all.)

How to View Date time stamp on Video

I am importing AVHD video into i move 8 and want to have date and time stamp on the video
any ideas on how to set this up?
I am importing video from a card reader.

Three methods:
File>process multiple files>labels. Be sure to uncheck "same as source", or the originals will be overwritten. It is best to work on duplicate files, esp. while learning.
Use the horizontal or vertical type tool to add the information manually to each picture file
If the same information is to be applied to several pictures, e.g. a copyright notice, use of a brush made in PSE is very efficient

How to retrieve media start time stamp on video clips

Premiere Pro CS4 loses the time stamps on all my video clips in the project. Is there a way to retrieve that data.
This usually happens after a crash or freeze up and one has to revert to an auto-saved ppj file.

Thanks for replying.
Timestamp only means time information for media start.
The time information was there for media start on all the clips as they
were captured but when I had to restart the project and the clips were
imported into a different project they disappeared.
What is Scenalyzer?
Thanks

How do I remove date/time stamp?

Upon uploading the pictures into the Lightroom 'library' none of them appeared to have the date stamp that they did in camera. After a few minutes, the date stamp for each started to appear. Seeing that they first loaded without the date stamp leads me to believe that I should be able to remove it easily. How can I do this without the hassle of cloning/cropping/editing. Is there a way to remove it from the metadata perhaps?

Which data/time stamp are you talking about, and why do you want to remove it?
I mean, it can probably be done using exiftool, but usually people want to keep it/them (or correct if wrong..).
I mean #2, I think you can remove it from exports, e.g. using a plugin like Jeffrey Friedl's Metadata Wrangler (if Lr's coarse handling doesn't satisfy), or if Jeffrey's plugin won't do it, a plugin like Exportant would.
Or if you just want to remove it from display - then press the 'i' key, or adjust view options, or define a metadata viewing preset...

Remove the time stamp in a PDF document

So.... I'm hoping that there's a way to remove the time stamp from a PDF document I'm working on. I can't find it in preferences and a search has been less than fruitful. Any ideas?? Thanks!

If you use the redaction tool to redact white space and then apply the redaction, it will give you the option to remove all hidden information. That should do what you wish.

Remove the comment time stamp in a PDF document

Does anyone know what's the best way to remove the comment time stamp from a document?
thanks

Do you mean that you want to remove the timestamp of a particular comment? If so, there are two timestamps associated with a comment, the creation date and the modified date. The modified date is what's shown in the comments list in Acrobat/Reader and can be altered by a script, but the creation date will still be present though unseen and unmodifiable directly with a script. It's possible to export the comments to a data file (FDF/XFDF), edit the file to remove/replace any timestamp info, and re-import the comments into a copy of the file that doesn't have comments. So the best approach really depends on what it is you're trying to accomplish.

How to add a time stamp to a video edited in Photoshop CC?

Hello fine ppl of Adobe communities.
I was wondering how can you add a time stamp to a video when edited in PS CC, is it possible at all? I dont have premier but I do have PS and LR.
Appreciate any help.
thanks

If you use File > Place Embedded, you'll be able to resize and place (move, rotate, etc.) images as appropriate in your open document with the added bonus of having them added as Smart Objects. (Note that using Smart Objects can greatly increase the file size of your document. Just be aware.)
File > Place Embedded > resize and place (hold down Shift to constrain proportion as you resize) > confirm by clicking the checkmark or "commit" icon.
For layers that already exist, right-click the layer in the Layers panel > Convert to Smart Object.

How do you remove the date/time stamp from a photo before printing?

I have one group of photos in an event that have the date and time stamp on them. I don't know how to remove the date/time stamp before printing.

If you have your camera set to imprint the date/time on the photo you can not "remove it - it is a part of the photo - depending on the surounding photo you might be able to retouch it out

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,
Hunt
