Hi everyone! I have been a happy owner of Dorico (3.5.12.1066) for a year or so. I use it mainly for composing and aurally transcribing film scores for my own personal enjoynment. I haven’t even really begun with Engraving mode yet. Mostly galley work so far.
Today I was revisiting my old transcription and wanted to attach a video (well, a black screen with audio) to it for comparison. In the clip there was a short pause before the audio starts so I set “Video Start Offset” to 00:00:00:08 and the framerate to match with the video file.
I added some markers and noticed that when moving one of them with Alt + arrows the timecode changes (as well as the position in relation to music which is the expected behaviour if I understood correctly). When changing the offset back to 00:00:00:00 the selected marker box moves without any effect in its timecode. I have understood that marker timecode should always be fixed in relation to the video.
I recreated this by opening two identical empty projects (4/4, some empty bars, tempo marking) with one having Video Star Offset as 00:00:00:08 and the other one with default 00:00:00:00. Again, moving any markers in the former project results in timecode changes (in steps of :08 in this case) but with the latter project the timecodes stay the same.
Am I missing something fundamental here and perhaps prepared the video attachment incorrectly?
