AstrocatFreitag's stream countdown timer

stream-countdown-timer

A timer that counts the time until... actually nobody knows what this counts. But you should be able to download the thing and run it on your own web server and import it as a browser source in OBS or Xsplit or whatever.

If you don't want to host it yourself you're welcome to use the one I'm hosting at https://astrocatfreitag.com/code/stream-countdown-timer/countdown.html. If you download it from me tho you're stuck with my settings that work for my stream. Don't ask me to change it for your stream. You have the source available change it yourself. My version is also subject to random changes at any time or just not working for testing.

installation

Add as a browser source to OBS

look it up if you don't know how to do that

paste in my URL above or your own URL if you're hosting it yourself

as written this fits into OBS in an 850x245 box. FPS should be fine at 30.

erase the custom CSS because I wrote some custom CSS or write your own CSS

the custom css will hide the text

this is bad

you can also just download the files and edit to your liking and add the HTML file as a local file in the OBS browser source options.

as currently written, the countdown will fit in an 868x288 size box in OBS Chrome says the source is actually 864x326, this is the size I use

stream-countdown-timer's Issues

Cool idea, not sure what is going on

You couldn't code something out of the box? Why all the random crap. Great job.

zero pad minutes and seconds

add a leading zero to the minutes and seconds counters so they are consistently long and predictable to use within OBS

fix the CSS

fix the CSS so this actually fits in a reasonably sized box smaller than 1000x1000
