Hi All,
Iam new to the forum and new to Vmix.

Looking to use Vmix to live stream video and score board for our local Swimming club.

We have an Ares21 connected to a Galatrica Score board. Would like to take the Score board data and over lay it onto a live video stream.
Does anyone know what S/W is available to convert the serial scoreboard data from the Ares21 into something I can feed into Vmix as an overlay?

Would also be interested if anyone knows the Serial format sent from the Ares21 – Event Number, Heat number, Names, Club, Lane number and times - this would help if I have to write some S/W to do the convertion.

Thanks
John

Some quick google search seem to give quit a bit of info regarding the Ares21 and various serial comunications (even a Tricaster LiveText data integration).. Seems multiple options are available (sending data to different type of scoreboards, or writing files).
Depending on the detailed goals and app can send data to a vMix title directly or read from a datasource to populata titles (like a ranking) after reading from serial or so.
Can always just read the serial data with some universal serial readers to see what data is being send ( often a good idea to check the corectness of "avalable" protocols used.

Would check first what the software used for the meet can deliver in terms of files and data

Thanks for the information.
Tricaster and Live text look very interesting but looking for a much simpler solution.

Ideally would like know more details on the file format from transmitted fromn the ARES21 so I can mybe program a simple serial data to Text parser.

Thanks
John
