This may be old hat, so if this has been answered, please share the solution.
How can I view the Recording Time in real time while using MuliCorder during a recording/production. This feature is available when not using MultiCorder.
Cheers!

Cheers! Hello. Unfortunatelly no, does not exist a setting for this in production clock but a solution is to modify this script to start a timer in a text input when multicorder is true/working https://forums.vmix.com/...ng-for-Dummies#post71124Code:
' Checking multicorder status from the API xml (127.0.0.1:8088/API)
' and display in a Title Input
dim ismultiCorder as string = ""
'lets keep checking
do while true
dim xml as string = API.XML()
dim x as new system.xml.xmldocument
x.loadxml(xml)
'are we multicorder?
ismultiCorder = (x.SelectSingleNode("//multiCorder").InnerText)
'put a response in a title and change color accordingly
if ismultiCorder = true
API.Function("StartCountdown", Input:="Timer Centre.gtzip")
else
API.Function("StopCountdown", Input:="Timer Centre.gtzip")
end if
sleep(500)
loop

While that is a type of solution, I have no idea where or how to implement that.

Here is a guide how to do this 1.Go to vmixSettingsScripting and press Add. Copy-paste the code from the forum in the windows it opens. In the name give a name you want but remember it because you will have to enter it in step 8. 2.Press Save and then close and then ok to go to vmix main ui 3. Add InputTitleGT Timer and select Timer Centre 4. In the new window that opens press the button Settings 5. In Duration set a time for maximum multicorder time. For example 10 hours. Check the button Reverse and now you will see that “Stop Time” changes to “Start Time” and press ok 6. Close the Title Editor windows to go back to main vmix ui 7.Now you have a new input with the timer you made. Go to SettingsShortcutsAdd and select the button you want that will start the script by pressing Find 8. In Function find and select ScriptStart. Now the shortcut window will say Value: Script Name. Inside this field write the name of your script and press ok 9. Back to vmix main ui. Now press the button shortcut you assign in step 7 10. Script will start to run. Now when you start to multicorder you will see that the input title “Timer Centre.gtzip” starts to count. If you stop your multicorder, the timer will stop.
