Hi, I'm looking for a way to create a countdown counter that can set in different ways such as 100 seconds or 300 seconds.
On the video I have to see the 3 digits or (200) or (300) and not the classic clock to understand ... can anyone help me?

countdown 200-0 ecc

probably better to use a script and format the display to your liking of the time using the DateTime.Now() or the stopwatch options to calculate

Hello. What difficult you have in order to run the script?
You must change the line
API.Function("SetText",Input:="9",SelectedName:="Headline.Text",Value:=ctime) in order to match to your needs.
Do you have in vmix a title input in input 9 position that have the field "Headline.Text"?
If no, you must change this in what you have. Also the line dim total as integer = 250 'Total # of seconds to count down means the time you need. If you need 300 seconds you will change the = 250 to = 300
And finally you can make a shortcut to run this script whenever you need it
