Clip time countdown

[nmugnaini]

Hey hey
I have a problem with the clip time not counting down the correct duration time of my clip. Adding anything without a scrub-able timeline automatically defaults to 5 sec. If I make the duration longer or shorter the clip time window doesn't adjust to show the correct time; it looks like it speeds up or slows down based on a ratio of the set clip duration.
I hope this is a bug, let me know!
Cheers -Nick

Could you share a screenshot of the clip panel?

Clips without transport, like images, always show 5sec duration on time panel. It just tick faster or slower according to real clip duration, setted in the clip properties.

Can I ask why it's constrained to 5sec? Currently, how would you use the Clip Time window when everything is 5sec?

The constraint of 5 seconds makes countdowns over comms and other triggers/event very difficult. The notion that a second isn't actually a second is, in the video industry and in my opinion, truly a bug.

Just updated to v7.16.0 and this is still an issue. Duration time does not match actual countdown time.
When will this be fixed?
