Yes -- mine also shows colons between all of them -- though as mitchell65 says, the final set of digits are shown as being slightly smaller than the preceding three sets...

The time code format for most video editing programs is: 00:00:00:00, HH:MM:SS:FF (Hours:Minutes:Seconds:Frames)....

Yes, I realise that. The point was whether the OP's reference to a length of .15 (without any other reference point) meant he was talking about .15 of a second or 15 frames...

Interesting...mine also shows colons between all of them

Very interesting, I've never paid that much attention to that last separator... It is not a colon, but a period... 
until something is changed in the project. When I opened VS, blank time-line, it shows a period. However when I placed a video in the time-line, and changed the project settings frame rate to something like 25fps, from my default of 29.97, it changes to a colon...

Aaahhh, now it makes sense. NOT!
And I'm still going with 15 frames!

Now I've cracked it. (I think) Set to PAL and the colon stays as a colon throughout. Set to NTSC and it changes to a stop throughout. Well that's what happens with my set up. Why you can't set the default transition to less that 1 second remains one of lifes many mysteries! Incidently I have a printed copy of the manual and all the pictures of the VS show Colon, Colon, stop.

Hi
Using VS 10 does the same as mitchell65 post above.
Colon for Pal
Dot for Ntsc.

I'm almost certain that the .15 referred to fps as I can't see how in VS you can set the duration to less than 1 second. If you put 15 in the third box that would indicate 15 seconds. You would need to show less than one second as something like .015 or :015 which you cannot do.
My printed manual on page 38 clearly states that 00:00:00:00 means hours:minutes:seconds:frames. 15 frames gives quite a good transition on a crossfade and at a 30fps video would equate to about half a second.

Yes, all that has already been determined. Our question was what did the OP want? 15 frames or .15 seconds?My printed manual on page 38 clearly states that 00:00:00:00 means hours:minutes:seconds:frames. 15 frames gives quite a good transition on a crossfade and at a 30fps video would aquate to half a second.
