Ms to timecode or FPS

FMOD Studio
1

is there a way to switch the ruler to FPS rather than MS (milliseconds) ?

Hi,

Unfortunately, there is no way to display time as FPS instead of MS/Beats in FMOD Studio - that said, could you provide some more info about your specific use-case(s) and the intentions behind the question? I may be able to provide an alternative, and/or list more information for an internal feature request.

we’re using a lot of imgui tools to make cinematic editors. So timelines are more utilized.

Thanks for the additional context.

I can definitely see the use for an FPS timecode metric, and I’ve noted your request on our internal feature/improvement tracker.

That said, you can effectively achieve frame subdivisions of 30fps in FMOD Studio by creating a tempo marker with the following time signature: “500 30/16”. Each of these frames at 30fps are subdivided four times, which provides timecodes to 60fps and 120fps with a little extra math.
