Countdown Issues #7

Open levin23 opened 7 years ago

levin23 commented 7 years ago

I've followed all the steps for the countdown plugin, but I can't get the variable in the live text to change. It just remains at the default value. I saved the variable as "cdown" and put the command as Countdown!cdown and even tried countdown!cdown. The live text was on a video or image zone while the event handler and timeout were on a audio only zone. The number set for the default value never decremented.

Hello, I am new on this. I followed the instructions for creating Countdown zone in BrightAuthor 4.7 , I am experiencing the same problem as reported by levin23 - the initial value doesn't change. Looking at the code it seems the original value for the 'event time' id not processed as a time value. I entered as 12:00:00 , 120000, 2019-09-01, 20190901.... no change whatsoever. Can anyone share any hints on this please ? thank you
