Sorry, not really had much time to work on it.

At the moment it works out how long until the clock strikes midnight, then displays that as an overlay counter on the video output in HH:MM:SS format. Text position, font and colour are adjustable.

It has three stages you can configure, with different fonts/colours/positions for each one. For the final stage you can change it to display seconds only.

So you could start your night off with the clock running in the bottom corner, nice and discrete.

With 5 minutes left (time period adjustable), the clock could change slightly.

With 10 seconds left (time period adjustable), the clock can change again, and can change to displaying seconds only.

Input? After the event I could obviously make the target date/time adjustable, more options and so on, but I'm just concentrating on a quick simple stable solution for NYE this year.

That sounds like a great plugin to work with any vid from your area - ie.. I am in Japan. Would love to see it before tomorrow night.

Any way to get this thing...like today?? I am in Waikiki Hawaii and really would like to have something more than I can get from the simple 3D text app.

thanks

I've spent my night tonight working to get it to a basic usable state. I'll be uploading it in a minute, and I'll approve it straight away.

This plugin has been rushed to be ready for people to use tonight. I would strongly advise you set your clock appropriately and test heavily first. I'm not responsible for any aborted midnight countdowns.

That said, I've run a fair few tests without a problem.

There are 4 stages, each stage can individually have a manual X/Y position, or be centered on the screen. Each stage has an individual alpha control, font controls and colour selection.

Stages 1 and 2 have an option for 'time'. This defines the remaining time (in seconds) that triggers a jump to the next stage. Stage 3 to 4 is automatic (when the countdown reaches 0).

There are three extra options at the bottom. One drops hours off if zero, so 00:59:59 would become 59:59, but 01:59:59 would remain the same. Another does the same with the minutes, so 00:59 would become 59, but 01:59 would remain 01:59. The third option is a dirty preview which allows you to see all the content at once so you can position them etc.

I know it's not pretty, I know it's not megaflexible, but I really didn't have time I'm afraid. I might have time for a quick update to it later, so if anyone finds any show stopping bugs or a simple improvement then let me know.
