Hello all,

I was curious if you might be able to help me determine a workaround for importing Event marks in FMV.  
I was hoping to be able to create and import a CSV file from some external event marks.  However it seems that the "Elapsed Time" is the primary field that links the events with the videos spatially and temporally.  So unless I have the exact start time within my external event file, to deduce the elapsed time of the event, I can't import these external events as bookmarks. I know I could go through a few files and get the start time of each video, and add that to my external event log, and deduce the Elapsed Time that way, but was looking for something a bit cleaner.
Can you think of a workaround within ESRI? 
Thanks for your time,
Ben

So I've determined that you can, but not without some editing.  The Bookmarks will link to the video based on the ElapsedTime field, and not the TimeStamp.  I actually calculated the Elapsed time of a number of logged events from the start of the file and added in the Local time for the TimeStamp field.
