Okay so a few people want Milliseconds rather than Frames so.... I'll make a custom preset soon! I'm away for a few days but i'll get it done when I'm home and release it (free) on Ko-fi! Stay tuned!

DUDE !!! Just today I was searching for EXACTLY this....!!!!??? You're the GOAT man......!!!!!

We love you Alex. Wow where would I be with DR without you. I been looking for timer for ages. It's about time. See what I did there 😂

Thank you for being so straight forward!

how about 10ths and 100s of a second instead of frames after the decimal? Hard to imagine any scenario where the viewer cares to count frames, and they'd pretty much always expect the decimal to be an actual decimal

Exactly what I needed for a project where I needed a clock like you would see on the news in the corner. Had to crank the Start Offset pretty hard but it's doing the trick. Thanks for the tutorial!

Got straight into it without any BS. I thank you for your service. :)

not for this video but in general alex you are a f amazing underated f youtuber, like holy shit i open the video i get exaclty what im here for nothing less nothing more, you cover everthing needed fast simple clear neat holy shit, honestly thank u so much i only discovered this channel recenetrly and i wish i had money to donate you well deserve more than just likes and views

Are you a teacher away from video editing as your teaching flow is so well paced. You voice also compliments your "go lucky" style and from a Brummie as well, Amazing!

Oh wow. Actually have a project coming up that this would be PERFECT for. Thanks so much!!

Thanks Alex! Great job including both directions TImer and Countdown! Very useful!

thanks you for all

YOU ARE THE GREATEST !!!!!!! Perfect and simple, just perfect.

this is absolutely useful, i used to dump a chroma based layer for counters, now i can create better timers, thanks!

Oh man, I've been doing it the hard way all this time! [changing the write on settings instead of the Modifiers tab]. Thanks, Alex! And that reverso trick, brilliant! :D

Thank you for the countdown. As soon as you started I was wondering how to do that. Quick and easy!

Bouncing around fonts - solved! You = LEGEND!!!

This video helped me a lot. It has everything I've been looking for about timers. Thank you! :D

U DA MAN MrAlexTech

thank you so much. I was wondering how to make a video of my dog waiting for a treat, speeding it up, to keep people from dying of boredom!!! ❤

Thank You Alex, Your video are really easy and interesting and more important they works.

Thorough, funny, two thumbs up...thanks Alex!!

Thank you coming from using Capcut so this is so helpful especially the countdown which is what I use.

Expressions are so good. I think you should do some more vids on those. If you can find a way to not bore or confuse people! 😐

Thank you for the Awesome Tutorials Alex

Thank you, the whole video I'm asking "what about count down" haha. Thanks for your videos, they are very helpful.

Thanks Alex. Needed this for a video I was editing right now! Great timing!

Great video Alex. I’ve used a simple timer once before, but the additional tips will be very useful indeed. I’m going to use it to remaster one of my GoPro videos where my dad was doing laps of a race circuit on his motorbike by adding the lap times to the screen 👍🏼😁

Another great and quick davinci tip, thank you for sharing!

Alex, many thanks for this but PLEASE do make a video about the Transparent GIF exports with Alpha Channel, so it would have clear / empty background for it to be used with another projects and platforms... many thanks again!

Thanks Alex. VERY easy to understand. Well done 🙂

THAT is so Cool😃 Thnx Allot!!!👊

Thanks Alex. Brilliant video as always! Very useful! 👍🏻

Is there a way to replace the frames counter with something like milliseconds?

Thank you for all the useful tutorials, Alex!

😇 The timer feature is cool!

Good to know, amazing and useful. Thanks Alex for sharing.

Thank you!

very helpful video! 😀

Alex always good tips, thanks! From your fã from Brazil, see ya!

Thank you very much 🙏

3rd time watching this is 3 months, 3 thumbs up 👍👍👍

Very well done as usual Alex and something I have been wanting to be able to do. Thanks!

your video is excellent!

Excellent. Thank you. Also, very useful and a nice exploration of possible variations.

needed that 1! thank you

Muchas gracias.

Thank you Alex.

This is great! Thanks for posting this

Thank you

Wonderful explanation!

Thanks Alot Mr. Alex 🌹

right what I needed to create some fake CCTV footage! thank you!

Excellent tutorial as always! Great job, Alex!

Really cool - cheers, Alex 🙏🏻🤟

Hey Alex! Requesting generic counters with automatic adjusting by changing clip-length - maked from Fusion-composition 😊🤘🤘

Thanks. As mentioned, what about milliseconds instead of frames?

Good video Alex

How to make the frames to go from 0 to 99 as 100th/s or 10th etc. frames don't have use anywhere else but video editing, timing a bike run doesn't make sense if the least significant value is frames.

Great video, only I have two questions. First, can you change the frames to decimals? I feel this should be possible with expressions. I haven't figured out how though. And second. Take for example the mountain bike run you used, but you don't want to show the full two minutes. you just want the start, a section in the middle and the finish. But the timer to still be accurate. I feel this can be done with cutting a compound clip, I just haven't tried it yet.

could you: how to import external subtitles (.srt) and what the time codes should look to be imported correctly?

3:20 when I click on modifiers there is nothing there, why is this?

Hey Alex Thanks for all your great tutorials. Instead of time code, you cannot change the time code to show distance. I am wondering if it can be changed so that you can see how many meters you have driven? I have some drone footage and would like to be able to show how far I have flown.

great vid! What if i wanted to start the countdown timer from a certain number - such as 24 hours. How would i do this? thanks

uff, easy as ABC -)))

Useful video, but I don't know why I don't have NiseSegaSonic font in my Davinci Resolve.

BMD should give us the official fonts library like adobe gives to their customers. at least for studio users :-/

You mountain bike??? Cool! Do you post any mtb videos anywhere?

Why do milisec only go up to 24 everytime before it goes up a second ?? how can i change it ?

This video is Clutch

ty this was so helpful I never knew how to make a timer lol

Yooo, didn't know that !!!

Can’t seem to find anyone explaining how to put a beeping countdown noise on the timer :(

The reverse timer does not work. Following the directions, both the video and the timer runs backwards, which is weird. What I need do have is a backwards running timer inside my video :(

Thank you for all the useful tutorials. Can you tell me how to make count only minutes and seconds but like football . Lets say 1 hour and half to show it like 90 minutes. How can i do that?

Is there a way to display the chapter names on screen? Like a baked in subtitle?

How to make an analog timer, the one with a clock face?

Whenever i change the font, it starts shaking

Hi Alex, How do I do this with showing 10th's of a second (and not frames).... Need to show a car's 0 to 60 time...... Thanks for your concise video btw, it always helps. I copied more of your videos into my DR Howto YT Playlist than any other creator....

Was magic mentioned? It should have been.

What I've always been wanting to create is for long duration time-lapses, where I can enter the start date/time and the end date/time and it creates a date/time throughout the time-lapse. Any ideas?

Off Topic: Is it possible to use a GPX file to animate a moving point along a path?

How can i reverse the magic timer?

Hi, when I'm in fusion and select the modifier, I don't get the option to remove hrs,mins, etc.

will this work for a time skip? like in time travel films?

And if i want a timer ( countdown ) ? -)

Great video and very helpful. 👍 I'm still looking for a way to display the real timecode, let's say my footage is 20 minutes long and I use a part of the clip from 10:30 to 11:30, I want to display this time without typing it manually. Can this be done? I think I just didn't find it...

I don't get new compound clip when I right click I only get this

Egg-sellent!

hi, for a person who want to start learn video edit now, you offer premiere pro or davinci? which one has more project or more options for doing projects? especially freelancing projects. what is your choice for me? do you offer learn premiere pro + afe or davincii + afe or only davincii enough. thanks.

theres nothing in modifiers....

Totally unrelated question, but I’m trying to create an efficient workflow where I’m editing footage (11 long-form interviews) in a language I don’t speak. I transcribed and translated everything in English on a separate platform and imported each interview with the subtitles into individual timelines. I’m currently creating in/out points in timelines to find the right dialogue, going back to the source clip viewer, then inserting on my master timeline so that I preserve the subtitles. I feel like there must be a more efficient way to do this, but I haven’t figured it out. Any chance you know anything about this? Thanks!!

Is it possible to export alpha channel videos with transparent backgrounds like After Effects can? Would be great if Davinci could do that so then I could export a timer and then overlay it to live video such as in a broadcast scenario.

Ok

You have already made a video upon timer in i guess 16 version 😂

you are delivering again, right on "time". Thanks Alex
