Using the Avid Calculator
The Avid Calculator helps you calculate video and film durations, and
convert timecode and film key numbers to different formats.
For example, you can:
• Convert drop-frame to non-drop-frame timecode values.
• Convert timecode durations between 30-fps and 25-fps projects.
• Convert a duration in video to the corresponding length in footage and
frames for measuring 35mm film.
To use the Avid Calculator:
1. Select Tools > Calculator.
The Avid Calculator opens.
