TCTimer

If you need a reliable timing tool for your animations, Timecode Timer (TCTimer) might be just what you're looking for. This software effectively helps you perform timing by displaying the current timing values expressed in time, number of frames, and length of the tape. These values can be recorded to the Timing Log during start/stop operations.

Another great feature of TCTimer is the ability to manually capture timestamp markers during animation. These markers can be added to the Timing Log alongside the start and stop values.

The interface is user-friendly, with three key buttons in the center: Start, Reset, and Mark. The Start button is used to begin and end timing. The Reset button will stop and immediately restart the action, while the Mark button will record a specific moment of the animation in the Timing Log.

Selecting the desired timecode and film format is easy with TCTimer. There are two drop-down lists that allow you to make a selection, and the current timing and frame count will reset to zero automatically. There are three displays for showing timing values: the Time display shows the current time value in the selected timecode, the Frames display shows the current frame count, and the Format display indicates the current tape length.

Overall, TCTimer is a reliable and straightforward timing tool that could be very helpful for animators looking for precision timing. Its user-friendly interface and automatic reset functions make it easy to use.
