"Frame" text boxes
These text boxes display order numbers of the currently processed frames in the
primary and assistant channels.
"Frame" text boxes are used when browser window is in the "Play" mode.
There are 4 "Frame" text boxes aligned in the column. They corresponds to the

ports 1 and 3, used for the major video output operations. "Frame" text boxes 2
and 4 show order numbers of frames in the video output ports 2 and 4, used for
the auxiliary video output operations.
For example, auxiliary video output ports 2 and 4, and corresponding to them
auxiliary "Frame" text boxes 2 and 4, are used for "Capture image" operations.
"Frame" text boxes 2 and 4 show order number of the captured frames.
Displaying frame index and time info in the controller panel can be disabled.
To do that you have to uncheck a check box "Enable frame index and time info"
in the "Video" options dialog.
"Time" text boxes
These text boxes display relative time of the currently processed frames in the
primary and assistant channels.
"Time" text boxes are used when browser window is in the "Play" mode.
There are 4 "Time" text boxes aligned in the column. They corresponds to the
video ports 1, 2, 3, 4.
"Time" text boxes 1 and 3 show relative time for the frames processed in the
video output ports 1 and 3, used for the major video output operations. "Time"
text boxes 2 and 4 show relative time for the frames processed in the video
output ports 2 and 4, used for the auxiliary video output operations.
Relative time is calculated relative to the very start of playing a video with
the frame rate selected in the "Video"
options dialog. It is assumed that the order number of the very first frame is
0. For example for the frame rate 25 frames per second, frame number 24
corresponds to the moment of the time 1 second since the very start of playing
a video sequence.
Displaying frame index and time info in the controller panel can be disabled.
To do that you have to uncheck a check box "Enable frame index and time info"
in the "Video" options dialog.
