Clément, I've tried the command
*ffmpeg -i STD_0022.MOV -timecode 15:14:13:00 -acodec copy -vcodec copy
std_0022_tc.mov*
but I don't think I have any success. The timecode doesn't show up in QT 7.x
nor in FCP.
I don't have ffprobe and I currently don't have the tools to compile it,
since I understand there's no binary available for download. In the
meantime, I've called the resulting MOV file with *ffmpeg -i* and this is
the result:

I can't see the timecode here, either.

Thanks for your help
