Workaround for Frame-Accurate In and Out Points in the Depthkit Editor

[CoryAllen]

An often-requested feature for the Depthkit application is to be able to set frame-accurate In and Out Points in the Depthkit Editor interface. Until this feature is added, you can use the following workaround to set frame-accurate In and Out Points for your Depthkit captures.

1. If your Depthkit project is open, close it.
2. MAKE A BACKUP YOUR PROJECT JSON
3. If applicable, convert your desired timecodes to frames (multiply seconds by 30, and minutes by 1800, and add them all up for a new frame number)
4. Use a text/code editor to open the dkproject.json located in your Depthkit project bin.
5. Locate the recordings object. Within that, the locate take object you’d like to edit, and within that, locate the inTime and outTime objects.

6. Change the ticks value to the frame number you desire, and the corresponding timebase value to 30 (representing the FPS framerate of the capture footage)
7. Save the JSON, and re-open your Depthkit project. The In and Out points should now reflect the frame numbers you entered.
