I've just started on the journey of triggers and so far I'm extremely impressed however recently have found a roadblock.
I'd like to see a trigger to start audio 30 seconds before the end of a 15minute sermon to allow a smooth transition into a song.
Other than setting the delay of 870,000 (14.5mins X 60secs X 1000mSec) if that's even possible, is there any other way to accomplish this?
The video components do have a countdown. Is there any way to use this?

Thanks, I have searched the forum for several hours. Unfortunately forums are only good when you know what to search for....i.e. the answer to the problem.
I'd appreciate a link to some of these posts so I can learn how to do what I'm after...

We have mixed live & pre-recorded content inter-dispersed. We are trying to get as much automated to reduce potential for errors, especially where there is back-to-back pre-recorded content.

I also cannot always be behind the controls, hence other volunteers may be controlling the workflow.

vMix is really easy to add overlays within 60secs of an input beings activated. I'd love to know how to set a trigger just before video content ends.

Doggy he knows the duration of his pre-recorded video so he can set and trigger his countdown according to it. This would not work for live, but for playback it's easy.

Sorry , didn't pay attention to the fixed length one

just if more of them (different length) you might have to add a (re)set the countdown and trigger it for each individual one in preparation (or manually) and needs an extra input ( title) to hold the countdown timer.

A trigger to on delay on the clip input also possible , believe limited to 30 seconds

Darn, why does vMix has many times more than one option ;-)
