I was wondering how I could add a running time and score in the upper corner of a soccer match I recorded.  It would be nice so that the coach can make notes of key things by the time on the video.

Thanks so much

How are you recording it?

If you can record the time as you go, great!

Score could be a text overlay.

No I cannot find an option on HG10 to put a running time there.

You are going to have to do it the hard way and do a lot of editing.  Find a video of a clock running and insert that as an overlay.  The best bet would be to take the original video , add the clock overlay and output it to a video file (mpg2 for DVD, best quality).  After it encodes, bring the mpg2 file int a new Video Wave Project and do your editing.  This probably would also be the time to add the scores, again as an overly or as text to the right part of the video.

Make sure you add the score to the internal track of the correct section of the video or it may end up in the wrong spot.

Thanks guys for your thoughts.  How about something simple like this.  Forget the scroe that could be easy to add.
