Hello,

I have been working on this problem for some time now but I cannot seem
to find a solution.

What I need to do is to find a date (with time) from some informations
.. 
I have a start date for an event, I have a timestamp for an encode start
time and I have a timestamp for when a clip starts ...

Now I want to find the RealTime date (with time) for the clip ... 
The code I have looks like this:

event = eventstart.Date()
enc = event + ' ' + str(encstart) + ' GMT'
tcpoint = event + ' ' + str(tc) + ' GMT'

(the reason for inserting the eventstart date in the enc string and the
tcpoint string is because I want to create 2 DateTime objects - but that
requires a date) ...

Now I want to say:
real_tc_time = DateTime(enc) + DateTime(tcpoint)

But ... I get an error saying that you cannot add 2 DateTime objects ??

So how could I do this calculation ?
