Hi, is there any software on PC that allows to display in a video footage from Canon XL1 a shutter and iris that has been used?

I have found an answer by myself ;-)

DVMP Basic - view datacode/datecode, timecode, date/time, and exposure details in DV AVI files (http://www.dvmp.co.uk/dv-media-player.htm#buy)

Using that product you will most likely be able to see the tile and date, as well as the timecode, but I don't think you'll see any shutter or iris info. I'm not 100% certain, but I don't think Canon include these in their metadata for their DV cameras.

You might want to email Canon to find out for sure before buying the program.

Yes Bill, it does. I mean - it shows the iris, shutter and gain level as well.

It's true that some of the less expensive cameras seem to omit some of the metadata, but I haven't noticed a theme with any particular manufacturer.

There's also a HDV capable version of DVMP Pro due out soon.

Out now. It also has a couple of new tools for extracting recording date and time from HDV, MOD and AVCHD files.
