[vlc] Displaying date/time stamp

[Frank DiRocco]

RS,

If the time is recorded in a separate video channel, you may need to  
enable that channel. To look at the available video tracks open the  
MPG with VLC. Leave it playing or stop it (doesn't matter). Navigate  
the menu Video -> Video Track, there is a slight chance it is  
available as a subtitle track in the next menu (some Sony handcams).

If not that, you will probably will have to google search, notice how  
I copy and pasted your own words and appended "time stamp"

just ignore the second link from nabble which is this thread  
immortalized :)
