TOOL 04
Starting soon screen with timer
A full-screen scene for your countdown, with music that fades out in the last seconds and the credit line in a lower-third. Be right back and ending versions too.
The preview is silent and runs the timer. The real URL plays the music.
Set it up in OBS
- Choose the scene. Starting soon, Be right back or Ending.
- Set the timer. Minutes, or a clock time. BRB can count up instead.
- Copy the URL into OBS. Add a Browser source at 1920 by 1080 and tick “Control audio via OBS”.
