Greetings everyone, I'm a new user of Vmix and I've been poking aroud the forum in search of answer unsuccessfully.

I am using a clock with this format: {0:mm:ss:f}
However the time showed is basically Vmix's uptime, is there a way to reset the clock to zero and make it start again?

Note: I cannot use the countdown because it does not support a format that allows to show tenths of seconds.

Any help would be greatly welcome!

Tenths of seconds (even hundredths) also work with countdown timers.

Find the code for countdowns here: https://www.vmix.com/kno...-clock-and-timer-options

I need to count in reverse mode though (count-up, not countdown, there's no indication on how to do that)
Basically I need a timer, that's why I wanted to use the clock with tenths of seconds.

I am aware of that, I started there and seeing no tenths of seconds format available I tried to use the clock.

I believe you might be better off with an external stopwatch then

There are many but here is a neat one with lots of options http://www.xnotestopwatch.com/

UTC could do it, but sync speed will be a problem:

Sorry, don't know if there is another way through vMix.

Workaround: Event timer on the production clocks, and create an input from it. You can't style it, though, and it won't stop running.
