timer 3.0 is regarded as a rather praiseworthy plug-in for iMovie that provides you with all timing-related tools you have ever required.

Use it to time real-time events (e.g. footage of a sporting event, experiments, forensics), add-style time info to your movie, countdowns, or provide time base lines for your stop-motion videos. In short, any time-related information can be added with this plug-in.

Major Features:

1. Timer:
   • real-time timer (tied to the video signal)
   • real-time count-down
   • time dilation/compression from 1:10 to 10:1
   • pre-set to any start value (timer)
   • count-down to any stop value (count-down)
   • calculate time (you provide start and stop times, the plug crates all time values in-between)
   • 11 different timer formats available
2. Artistic:
   • place the time anywhere on the clip -using the mouse!
   • automatically scale time with mouse -no silly font size selection!
   • use any font (note that this is an effect, not a title plug-in!)
   • use any color for time display
   • optional panel behind timer for improved contrast
   • use any color for panel (if enabled)
   • 100 levels of transparency
3. Video timing (for real-time timer/count-down):
   • 30 fps (NTSC)
   • 25 fps (PAL)
4. Note to advanced video editors: Since iMovie does not pass any original DV timing info to the plug-in, this plug-in can only be used to newly time-stamp source, not re-establish lost timing code.
5. Use this plug-in for any time-related info displayed in a video, e.g.
   • time of day
   • time passage for stop-motion
   • clocking real-time events
   • style time info
   • establish time codes for videos
   • count-downs
