  Clock filter that doesn’t reset at 60th minute

  Posted by Charles Simonson on May 22, 2012 at 5:14 pm

  I am in need of a Clock filter to overlay during a local soccer team’s matches. I have tried Mattias’ free Clock plugin, which works great until the 60th minute, at which point it resets to zero (I only want to show minutes and seconds). For soccer, I would need the clock to continue on past the 90th minute, sometimes as far as the 130th minute just to be safe. Is there anyway to modify his script so that I can achieve this? Or is there another plugin out there that I should be using instead? Preferably free, as this is a volunteer project.

  Thank you for any support and assistance you can provide.

  Might want to give this a go

  I think it can go past 60 mins – not free but pretty cheap and you can try before you buy.

  Hopefully it will work for you.

  best wishes

  Thanks guys. But with the help of the plugin’s author Mattias, I was able to rewrite the script to suit my needs. All I had to do was change the line:

  numtostring(Integer(tm%3600000/60000)+100, minutes, 0)

  to:

  numtostring(Integer(tm%7200000/60000)+100, minutes, 0)

  Very simple to do and is free! Many thanks go out to Mattias.
