If you could give custom names to the timers it would be perfect.
If you have several timers, you quickly come to the following problem: What was timer 5b799ca6, time 6ad6b824 and timer ...... ?
It's funny you mention this. Someone posted on the GitHub repo asking for the same feature which I've just implemented in version 2.0.3. You should be able to download it now and try it out.

Not sure if I'm missing something, but I used the installer, and I'm not seeing the countdown appear in my docks. I do see the options in hotkeys, but I can't do anything with the plugin. Am I missing something? Thanks!

Suggestion: Make the date portion of the countdown to date entry enterable via a keyboard entry instead of just using the calendar dropdown. It appears the date cannot be updated via keyboard entry but the time is updateable. Thank you!

Hi, so I've tested this on my mac and you can enter the date without using the drop down by either highlighting the day, month or year and then either scrolling on the mouse or using the keyboard arrow keys. When entering the numbers manually you aren't allowed to enter a date before the current date so sometimes it wont let you change days or months first depending on the month. It felt unintuitive when I was trying to manually enter dates to I enabled the dropdown but that shouldn't prevent you from entering manually, just that if you try entering a number that is invalid or before the current date time it just wont let you enter it.

Thanks for your response. I didn't realize that the input area (correctly) validates that the date being entered is a future date.

Is it possible to add a feature where instead of setting the time manually, you set the end time manually (e.g set a date and/or time) so it acts like a countdown to a specific event at a specific time?

So if you select the date time option (Click on the d button) you get the option to set a date and time that you can countdown to. The UI will switch out the hours/minutes boxes for a date time field for the timer and a start and stop button. Is that what you're asking for?

Trying to install on RPi5 getting an error message "wrong architecture 'amd64' -- Run dpkg --add-architecture to add it and update afterwards"
I'm a bit of a noob on package installation on linux. Can you help?

Ok, got past the architecture, but now I get "failed to completely install all dependencies" run sudo apt-get install -f.
When I do, the plugin is removed, recovering 276 kb.
very lost here

Hi, so I'm not an expert at Linux but the premade scripts I use from the OBS templates plugin is set to build for PC x86 chips I think. I don't think it will build for the arm based chips of the raspberry pi. Have you been able to build any other plugins for OBS to run on the Pi?
