Hi,
I want to extract exact time stamp of a video file recorded from SONY HDR-PJ790 camera and video format of the camera file is ".m2ts". I wonder if i can grab gpstimestamp for each frame of the videofile and if i can get a precision higher than seconds (milliseconds is needed for synch purposes).
Thank you for your time

ps. i have a windows machine and i use exiftool through CMD

Typically Sony cameras store GPS only once every 2 seconds, and I don't think the time has sub-second precision.  Use -gps:all -ee.  ExifTool will report sub-seconds if they exist.

Edit: I should have added -a too
...where DIR is the name of a directory/folder containing the images.  On Mac/Linux/PowerShell, use single quotes (') instead of double quotes (") around arguments containing a dollar sign ($).

Thank you Phil, for answer and for exiftool.
