Parse an SMPTE timecode (HH:MM:SS:FF, or HH:MM:SS;FF for drop-frame) at a given frame rate
Parse an SMPTE timecode (HH:MM:SS:FF, or HH:MM:SS;FF for drop-frame) at a given frame rate into its components, total frame count and real-time seconds. Drop-frame is auto-detected from a ';' separator unless dropFrame is set. Out-of-range or non-existent drop-frame values are a clean 400.
