    I would like to find or create a graphic containing a intermission countdown timer for use with live encoding sessions. Can anyone tell me where to find or how to do this?

    You could create a XAML file in Blend that uses a storyboard that counts down and add it as a file source (you will need to select All Files from the Add Source dialog to show the XAML files) or you could just create a bunch of static numbered images and add them as file sources.  Then just set the duration and have them jump to the next image.

    Thanks, Jamie. I guess I'll just have to write some code. I am sure that this must have already been done (many times no doubt) by someone, but have not yet been able to find anything.
