Meeting Timer
A simple application to allow you to keep your meetings or webinars running on time.
It has two modes:
- Screen-share: a window that contains the timer that you can screen share on your video conferencing software. This mode is useful for meetings where everyone attending should see the timer.
- Webcam: a virtual webcam stream that you can use instead of your real webcam to display the timer. This mode is most-useful for webinars where you can share the timer with other presenters via your webcam which can be hidden from the regular participants by making it a webinar co-host.
Table: operating system (OS) support:
| Mode | Windows | MacOS | Linux |
|---|---|---|---|
| Screen-share | Yes | Yes | Yes |
| Webcam | No (1) | Maybe (2) | Yes |
- It currently doesn't support windows however If you are a developer and can work out how to connect it I am happy to accept your pull-request to submit the code.
- It is possible the Linux method might work for MacOS however I do not have access to a MacOS computer to test it out. If you do and successfully get it to work, please drop me a message (andrewjrobinson+mt at gmail.com).

TO-DO list
Some features that I would like to add:
- Allow customisation of display (font-size,
colours[done] etc.) - Allow full schedule of events to be specified ahead of time:
- Manual advance to next speaker
- Automatic advance
- Display runtime difference from schedule (i.e. how late/early are you)
- Display in configuration window (i.e. you only)
- Progress bar to display meeting progress on timer output
- Import schedule from spreadsheet (CSV) OR pasted from clipboard (TSV)
- Webcam Support:
- WindowsOS
- MacOS
-
Save configuration to file (JSON)[done] -
Settings dialog[done]
To be honest though, I may not get to implementing these since my main motiviation for creating this application (hosting a webinar) has passed (and this tool performed very well).
If you have other ideas please contact me so I can add them to the list and hopefully get time to implement them at some point.
If you have the skills/time to implement the Windows/Mac version of webcam mode please get in contact so we can work together to get it implemented.
