Hi Scott, thank you for showcasing this Script. I have been enjoying your channel for a while now and appreciate the hard work you have put into your channel. Always keep going. Your video of the Script seems like you missed a lot. I do understand that it takes a tremendous amount of time and energy to make videos, so not a biggy.

I thought I would point out some items for you and those who uses the script.

The Caution / Warning Duration, this is meant to only take effect, if the Media Source properties has the playback set to ‘Loop’. This is because the media source will be switched off if playback ends, but if its on “loop” it will never stop playing, thus the duration feature. If there are issues then please report it on the Forum Discussion for the script and it can be looked into.

You don’t need to restart OBS when adding new sources, instead, all you need to do is click the ‘reload script’ icon. This will refresh and load all new sources for selection by the script. The reload icon is located on the script panel, next to ‘Add’ and ‘Remove’ script icon.

There are a ton of other really cool features the script offers that I really hoped you showcased ):

Such as the “Next Scene Feature” as it offers the ability to rotate sources and scenes in countdown mode when the timer expires. Please can you DM me in OBS Forums if you like to discuss the script and what it offers?

Keep up the good fight!

Wish you showed the product either in the begging so we know if it is something we want to add to our OBS or at the very least in the end. Great stuff though. Thanks for the info.

[avatardiego]

thanks for the tutorial! super useful and easy to follow! thanks! :P

[buzzly]

This is awesome, thank you. I am going to be using this for streaming pool (billiards) matches, and would love to use this as a shot clock. I'd love to display it as a colored bar rather than text... is this possible? Do you know a way to do that, if this one doesn't work?

Great stuff, thank you!

[masuleasy]

Good day, thanks for the informative content, my request is can you make a tutorial using own3d software

[balancedhealthldn]

Hi Scott - thanks for the tutorial - is there a way that the timer can be used for HIIT (exercise classes) ie - for a 9 minute duration of 40 seconds on and 20 seconds of rest? Thank you

Hello, I was touched by your advanced stopwatch. I want to use it well, but I can't, so I ask a question in poor English. I need to use the stopwatch function, but I want to print the playtime on the obs continuously. In other words, if you did it for 2 hours and 40 minutes until yesterday, the stopwatch should start from 2 hours and 40 minutes today. But I don't know how to set it up. When the time is arbitrarily modified in the ob text setting and the stopwatch is started, it is always initialized. Is there any way?
