I'm using Vegas 8.0a (Build 179)

Is there a way to get the Date/Time Stamp field to show in the Media Manager view of clips? I see it in the Project media window but I can't find the field to add to the Media Manager window.

I really want this field exposed in the media manager so I can properly sort and tag my clips.

Thank you very much to whomever can answer!

Hi Jim,

Interesting.

1] Date/Time Stamp appears within Project Media

2] The Date/Time Stamp information appears as "Recorded" information within Event Properties GENERAL

3] In Media Manager neither "Recorded" nor "Time/Stamp" make an appearance

4] However, there IS the "Original" date, but this reflects the actual date that the Media was placed on my hard drives.

5] I have a "Tape Name" filled within Project Media, when I ADD this as a column the column is not filled.

6] When I add a column "Timecode In" it gets filled

7] When I add a column "Timecode Out" it gets filled

8] When I add a column "Duration" it gets filled

9] I have EVEN manually ADDED my own Time/Date Stamp column - yes you CAN do this - it does NOT get filled.

10] Also from within: Event > Properties > General

a) Tape Name is there
b) Recorded is there
BUT ..
c) The Event is not Tagged, but it is! I can demonstrate this.

To me this implies some need for clarification. I read your same post on the "other" forum and your question remains sticking in my mind.

Thanks

Grazie

clarification - specifically in MEDIA MANAGER i want to see the date / time stamp so i can search on it and select clips recorded at specific times for tagging and adding to project.

thanks!
