Are the music rights included along with the package?
Hi Patrik
The package includes most of the shots seen in the promo but not the music nor the rights to use them.
HI
I just bought a time preset plug-in from your website, however, it seems can not be downloaded. can you help me and fix it ? My email is 315479854@qq.com
Hi! Thanks for your purchase. And Sure, I’ll contact you through the mail.
I just purchased the preset and need a little help
On the minute of the timer how do I remove the 0? For a 5 minute timer I don’t want the 0 in front of the 5. Currently is 05:00 I need it to be 5:00
Thanks
Hi Briyan
The “hide zeros” feature is available only in the digital clock preset for leading hours, but you can still achieve that on the the timer with a simple mask that subtracts the leading zeros.
Afternoon, I want to create a timer for a video and embed this as a animation or something visible for the duration of the video. I.E. my video will be 30sec long but i would want the timer to count up to 53 hours and 45 min whilst the video is running. Will your software give this to me ?
Hi Paul
Sure, It’s pretty simple:
using the Timer preset, set the “Speed” to Zero (which means manual animation), check the “Show Hour” box and uncheck the “Show mili-Second” box.
Now you can set the key frames of the hours and minutes to 0 in the beginning of the video and 5, 45 at the and video.
I recommend watching the full Tutorial to understand all of Time Presets capabilities.
Best Regards
Can you also count up to a specific time?
Of course, if the speed is set to 0 you can set keyframes for your specific time
