Andrea/Andrew:
The 0030-Add-timecode-to-output-mov-mxf.patch works and introduces timecode in both mov and mxf and also in mp4 (instead it doesn't work in mkv). Thanks! I propose to put this patch in git.
It is a good idea but I tested it and it works and shows up in mediainfo BUT there is an error message that is a problem and I do not understand. Maybe Andrew can look at this as shown below where the new lines and error (codec open failed) is in BOLD as shown on the startup window.
I think this error come up even if you try ffmpeg cli on such file.... (it does not know what codec can correspond to timecode track - should it even be?) it look harmless but may be it is not? Can you try other players (including standalone/hw if you have some of them around) on this file?
