This is a basic timer/stopwatch that can be controlled via OSC

Full Screen OSC-Controlled Timer

This is a simple python script that shows a white stopwatch on a black background that is OSC controller. Works great during shows on a Raspberry Pi or other lightweight micro-computer.

Installation

pip3 install python-osc
pip3 install netifaces
git clone https://github.com/steffeydev/fullscreen-osc-timer

You may need to update the interface name in the script if it is not eth0

Feel free to change input and output ports in script

Running

cd fullscreen-osc-timer
python3 timer.py

Note: the timer is based on a differential between the start time and the current time, so the count will never be more than 1 second off. However, this may cause strange jumps (+/- 1 sec) when starting and stopping; this is expeced and does not effect the accuracy of the timer.
