7thSense Design Delta Media Server Guide to Installing Adrielec
Why install Adrielec for Delta Media server? Delta can use Adrielec hardware to chase LTC Timecode. “Time Code assigns to each video frame (picture) a unique number, having the format Hours:Minutes:Second:Frames. This number may then be used for editing and/or control purposes.” http://www.adrielec.com/docs/userman.pdf
