Hi everybody.
I need some help with the Title Countdown feature: I'd like to use it while streaming a rugby match, and I need the clock going on first half from 00:00 to 40:00, and on second half from 40:00 to 80:00.

I used this configuration for the first half: Duration = 00:40:00, start time = 00:00:00, display format = mm:ss, reverse = yes, and everything it's ok.

For the second half I tried with: Duration = 01:20:00, start time = 00:40:00, display format = mm:ss, reverse = yes. The clock is fine until 59:59, but then it goes to 00:00 again (instead of 60:00): how can I fix it?

Thank you in advance
Enrico

Instead of typing in 1:20:00 type 00:80:00 likewise for the soccer type 00:90:00

To be fair, in "Countdown Settings" it won't accept numbers above 59 minutes or seconds...

HOWEVER, the clock or timer WILL display the minutes numerically as 60 and above when you select "mm:ss" as the 'Display Format'.

Selecting "Reverse" will count up (changes 'Stop Time' to 'Start Time')
'Start Time' would normally be set at "00:00:00" (but could be set to whatever).
'Duration' is the Total duration and is what is added to your 'Start Time' (if your duration is 40 minutes and you start at 00:40:00, the clock will count up to 80 and stop)
(if your duration is 90 minutes and you start at "0" set the 'Duration' to 01:30:00 and the clock will count up to 90 and stop)
(if you are doing soccer/football you may want to adjust your duration to allow for 'injury time' or set up an additional clock to count that)


Hope that helps.
