Hello Blaine. I am completely ignorant about what I am doing. I don't even know how to contact you, so thats why I'm using this "Leave a Comment" box.
I have been messing about with something I found on a forum, something you created I think.
I am trying to have a COUNTUP counter in the corner of my finished video.
I use ULEAD VideoStudio at the minute.
I hacked up some code that you created, and some other code I found elsewhere, to try to achieve what I want, ie, a COUNTUP counter, which counts just in whole numbers, just a running total in seconds only. But to be more precise, I would actually like it to count every 0.8 seconds.
The hacked up code does produce something like I want, but I want to make the size of the displayed counter bigger, and changing the font would be a a nice option to have. Is there an easy way to do that? Please don't use programming lingo as I have no idea what the code at the bottom of this message is, what language it is, or anything else about it. I just followed the instructions to make it work. I hope that isn't too vague. Thanks. Neill
BlankClip(length=60*60*30, width=320, height=240, fps=24, color=$000000)
function ShowTime(float totalSeconds)
{
i = Int(totalSeconds)
return String(totalseconds, "%08.2f")
}
ScriptClip("Subtitle(ShowTime(67.0 + current_frame / FrameRate()))")
There is a newer more flexible Home Built Steadycam Design that has quite a few more usability options than the classic $14.
They also have a tutorial and some sample footage.
