Hi all,



the Powerdirector project file (.pds) is in XML. There you can see all the clips (segments) of your video, e.g.:



<CLIP ID="0" IDREF="3" TYPE="VIDEO" START="0" STOP="137970891" ...

<CLIP ID="1" IDREF="3" TYPE="VIDEO" START="137970891" STOP="239905854" ...

... and so on.



Does anyone know in which unit the "START" and "STOP" attributes are? They must correspond somehow to the seconds of the timeline, for example the first clip starts at second 0 in the timeline and ends at 00:00:13:47 (so it is 13 seconds and 47 frames long), which somehow seems to correspond to the STOP attribute value of "137970891" above.



In a similar way the second clip starts at 00:00:13:47 and ends at 00:00:23:58 in my timeline, again somehow corresponding to the STOP attribute value of "239905854" above.



However I can't figure out the unit, it does not seem to be frames, microseconds or miliseconds. It must be something very obvious which I'm missing. Does anyone know which units are used for these START / STOP attribute values?



Many thanks :



All the best,

Michael
