Wishlist - Go-to-frame goes-to-time?

[metacynicv2]

I love the go-to-frame feature! Is a go-to-time option a possibility?

We (@briancash) are doing a lot of DV QC at the moment by using DV Analyzer and QCTools side by side. Being able to copy a timestamp from Dv Analyzer in order to jump to a frame in QCTools would speed up our workflow quite a lot. I just realised that we can use the frame number to achieve this, but I can see how having the timestamp feature could benefit other workflows.

DV Analyzer and QCTools side by side

Interesting... wondering if an UI with info from both tools could be doable.

I think it would be very interesting. @briancash was experimenting with the FCP 7 integration, and we found it very useful to a degree,but not so powerful without things like QCTools temporal difference filter. I wonder if it would be enough for DV Analyzer to be able to export a file that could be transformed to a QCTools xml.gz file - perhaps with the error timestamps listed as comments so that users could skip through each error easily?

re Workflow: checking the technicians notes is often part of the qc workflow and techs use timestamp not frame (in my experience). It would definitely cut down on some workflows to have the go-to-time option. The only playback software I'm aware of that has this feature is mpeg streamclip.

+1 on @kieranjol idea!!
