Data that changes or interacts with the user along a time dimension. QuickTime is designed to handle time-based data.
Industry:Software; Computer
A standardized indexing system for identifying specific portions of a audio file. Timecodes are often used for synchronizing or editing audio data. See also SMPTE timecode.
Industry:Software; Computer
A media structure of type 'tmcd' that is used to store timecode data.
Industry:Software; Computer
A movie track that stores external timing information, such as SMPTE timecodes.
Industry:Software; Computer
A set of values that defines the context for a time base. A time coordinate system consists of a time scale and a duration. Together, these values define the coordinate system in which a time value or a time base has meaning.
Industry:Software; Computer
A source of synchronous events for a thread. Timers generate one-shot or repeated events at a scheduled future time.
Industry:Software; Computer
The number of time units that pass per second in a time coordinate system. A time coordinate system that measures time in sixtieths of a second, for example, has a time scale of 60.
Industry:Software; Computer
In Mach, a scheduling policy in which a thread’s priority is raised and lowered to balance its resource consumption against other timesharing threads.
Industry:Software; Computer
The basic unit of measure for time in a time coordinate system. The value of the time unit for a time coordinate system is represented by the formula (1/time scale) seconds. A time coordinate system that has a time scale of 60 measures time in terms of sixtieths of a second.
