[Frame & Bit Rate] is 60 (30), the actual
number of frames per second is approximately 59.94
(29.97). However, the time code processing standard is 60
(30) frames. To make up for the frame number discrepancy,
the drop frame mode (Drop) drops the 00 frame and 01
frame every minute except for minutes that are multiples of
10.
On the other hand, the non-drop frame mode (Non Drop)
does not drop frames and ignores the discrepancy with the
actual time.
