Almost!

Great app but it’s missing 23.978 which is the most common frame rate for film making.

No Output Routing

Would be much more helpful if it could send MTC

Jam-synch Bmpcc4K

I’m only just discovering the benefits of time-code and, having realised that I can jam-synch my GH4, using the Panasonic app, I wondered if I could do the same with my BMPCC4K? Of course, I could buy a synch system, such as Tentacle, or Atomos, but I wanted to just use an app on my phone. This app was simple, free, and promised to do what I wanted. I already had a ‘lightning to 3.5mm jack’ adapter so I connected my iPhone 11, running the app (set to real-time) to my BMPCC4K. Initially, the 3.5mm mic socket was set to ‘mic level’ but when I reduced it to ‘line level’ the camera recognised the audio TC coming through and adjusted to sync. Once the ‘ext’ symbol showed, I disconnected the phone. The camera will probably drift a little over time but I’m happy to re-synch every time I use it.

Almost perfect for my needs

I was looking for a simple app that I could use to generate a Timecode signal from my phone to jam sync my master Timecode device with the current running time of day Timecode. This app does that for me, but the amount of supported frame rates is limited. The 30 fps option seems to output a non drop frame version, which wasn’t compatible with what I needed (29.97). If drop frame based frame rates would be added, it would be perfect for my needs
