Download the installer from the GitHub release page . The latest version at the time of writing was 1.0.0.1, the installer was in EXE format, and the file size was about 1.18MB. Flip Clock only supports Windows (64-bit).
Launch the downloaded installer. Click 'Next'.
The license agreement will be displayed. Click 'I Agree' to begin the installation.
When the installation is complete, click 'Finish'.
Launch OBS and click the “+” in the source window. “Flip Clock” will be added, so select it.
Click “OK”.
Then, Flip Clock appeared on the screen.
You can change the display of Flip Clock from the properties screen. By default, the time is displayed in 24-hour format with hours, minutes, and seconds.
Check 'AM/PM' to switch to the 12-hour format.
When you uncheck 'Show seconds', the seconds display disappears and the display switches to only hours and minutes.
You can switch to a stopwatch by changing 'Clock type' to 'Stopwatch'. The display shows hours, minutes, and seconds, and pressing the 'Start' button starts the measurement. The stopwatch has a simple function, and only starts and stops. It cannot measure split times or lap times.
You can use the timer function by changing 'Clock type' to 'Timer'.
Enter the number of minutes you want to measure in 'Timer value' and press 'Start' to begin measurement. For example, in the following case, you can measure 1 hour and 25 minutes by entering '85'. However, the timer only measures the set time and does not have an alarm function.
Flip Clock displays the time with a smooth animation of a flip clock, but the material itself has an aspect ratio of 16:9, and black areas are displayed around the flip clock.
If this black area is bothersome, you can crop it to hide it. Select 'Flip Clock' from the source and select 'Filter'.
Click the '+' in the Effect Filters and select 'Crop/Pad.'
Click “OK”.
Just enter '70' on the left, '270' on the top, '70' on the right, and '270' on the bottom.
When cropped, the black areas disappear, making it easier to incorporate into the layout of the streaming screen, as shown below.
