SMPTE Timecode Generator - possible?
Hello very helpful forum members again,
I have a Leitch broadcast studio clock (ADC-5012) and would very much like a timecode generator for it, but they are very expensive to buy and frankly overkill for one clock. I have no problem using a GPS receiver to get accurate time and could parse this through the Picaxe but I have no idea how to go about the timecode generation in both hardware and code (or indeed if this is possible with Picaxe).
I would welcome the thoughts of the far more knowledgeable chaps on this forum that make it the joy that it is. This could be a non starter.
The datasheet for the clock can be found here: http://catalogs.infocommiq.com/AVCat/images/documents/pdfs/ADC-5100_Series.pdf. It will take either EBU or SMPTE timecode.
Many thanks,
James.
