Default Display timecode counter via "video out Firewire"

Hi,

Is there a way to display my timecode counter via my Video out Firewire (using Mojo)?

I occasionally work with QTs without any timecode burned in and I need to display the TC counter to voiceover artists. Is it possible to get the "Big Counter" to show up through my Video Firewire out?

Pro tools 7.4 HD
192 interface
SYNC interface
Mojo

Any help is much appreciated!

Thanks
Peter

don't know about the firewire output, but if you have a 2nd monitor for the artist, then you can output big counter on that monitor instead of the main monitor. not what you asked, but a good workaround nevertheless...

Not possible with a mojo but with the video running on a DVI-out. But the sync has a TC-burn-in feature when you route the composit-signal through it. Check the sync i/o manual for how to set this up.

composite out of mojo to video in of Sync, video out of sync to TV video in.

Enable burn-in window in sync prefs

select generate TC, put PT online

you now have burn in on the display and not permanently in the movie.
