Adding date/time info when capturing from a DV tape
Video cameras usually have a date/time stamping feature. If this feature is turned on when you record your video to a DV tape, the date/time stamp is automatically imprinted on the video frames. In VideoStudio, you can display this date/time stamp as titles by using the DV Quick Scan and Capture Wizard.
