apart from selecting it in the timecode display and hitting **cmd-c**? Or do you mean on the fly, while it's playing?

On the fly, or without having to use the mouse.

Can you explain in more detail what you're trying to accomplish? If the time code is changing anywhere from 24 to 60 times a second, what does copying it to the clipboard get you?

Trying to get timecode values out of FCP 7 Into Aegisub, where someone has already created some text objects in FCP7. I need the timings from them in Aegisub, and the only way I've managed to get them in is manually..
