No timecode output #1

The timecode generator is generating the informations for the frame rate and for frame count but it's not outputting any timecode out from the machine. I've tried it with both another arduino UNO and with a software and there's no timecode output. Only framerate and framecount. How can I generate the timecode as well? Thanks!

This project is not finished, it was more a "proof of concept", I wanted to use it to build a midi/LTC box.
Anyway, the current implementation of the LTC generator output always the same frame (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linear_timecode), which is LTCFrame testFrame = {0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0xFC, 0xBF};

If you want to generate real information, the testFrame struct has to be updated when needed (that migght be easy to to do in the loop() function).
I can try to implement that.

Actually I didn't expected anyone to be interest in this project (that's why it's not finished), but I'm glad some one is :)
Can I ask how you want to use it ? (I can maybe help with it!)

I was looking for a way to generate LTC for a camera tally system that I've been playing with recently! I appreciate your reply I'm just starting with interrupts so it's not my best ...

I just push a commit to add the time code generation.
Now the LTC generator should output a valid LTC time code (at 30fps, 24 & 25 are easy to add, 29.95 is a little bit trickier but doable).

Tell me if it does what you need ;)

Thank you! I appreciate it a lot! I'll play with it shortly! All the best!

L.E: Also, if you have an email I can contact you, would be great as I have some questions and don't want to make this thread endless :)) :D
