Hi there,

I'm doing a sports live stream (Rugby) that has many different graphics and metrics that are displayed on the on-screen graphics. For example, game timer, score, stats, player list, yellow cards etc.

These look great on screen as graphics, but I want to do an information graphic screen that shows the game details and stats for the commentators to see. These game details/info will be displayed to the commentators constantly without having to bring up the graphics live.

Previously I created a "Data screen" input which I output as a second screen to the commentators to see. Using scripts I link the game info to this data screen which worked and looked great and the commentators loved it. This input/screen was never broadcast live. (Checkout the attached image for what we previously used)


The problem I found was this was the second external monitor that output from the computer which drained system resources. Also I have to run a cable to a monitor for the commentators.

I was wondering if there was a web based page I could create that would grab info/stats from vMix in real time and show them on a web page? The web controller does a similar thing but the layout and info it displays isn’t right for what we need. It would have the advantage of not having to output another screen and anyone could view it on a device from the same network.

Is there a way to achieve this?

If you can pull the data from the game info for vmix you can do the same for a locally hosted php site (nginx) that does the same. You canalso combine with vmix api to add data from vmix itself.

Thanks for the reply! Are you able to go into a bit more detail for me. I'm not a web developer but know enough to get myself out of trouble. I've used the api to add a button into a custom web page to sends commands to vMix, similar to the web controller. I just can't work out how to retrieve information from vMix and put it into the browser.
