Purpose

 

To declare the FPS (Frames Per Second) for the incoming files, then passing them to the output connector alongside with the new FPS metadata.  

Some media formats don't provide FPS information (for example most enumerated sequences), or it can be wrong. This node declares FPS metadata for posterior use in other nodes and metadata exports.  

Note: This node does not actually modify any media file, it just declares the new metadata value for usage on posterior nodes supporting it.

 

Inputs

 

files: Any media files

 

Outputs

 

out: The input files alongside with the new metadata value.

Node specific properties

 

FPS: A combo box offering the supported video standards.

 

Overwrite: If deactivated, the new FPS metadata value will only be applied to media files lacking FPS metadata information, but if they already have it will not be overwritten. This is convenient to provide a default for new media appearing Watcher folders,  without knowing what kind of media files will appear in there in advance.
