The timecode can be displayed in the following formats: (hours:minutes:seconds.milliseconds), (hours:minutes:seconds.frames), (hours:minutes:seconds.frames) and (milliseconds). It can be used to access points in time (by clicking on it and entering a value in "hh:mm:ss:ms" format). To change the display format, right click on it and select a format from the menu. The SMPTE timecode formats PAL and NTSC only indicate the way time values are converted to frame numbers; this is independent of the actual video standard of the associated video(s).
The sliders available when the tab is selected allow you to control the playback rate and the volume.
