Hi folks.

What I am attempting to do is find a way to tweet the scoreboard values(text fields and Score) somewhat automatically.

I was able to take the status results from 127.0.0.1:8088/api and pull out the needed info using XSLT by copying and pasting the api status values and running the XSLT on the text. But it seems that without a proper xml filename, that using the xml externally will not work. There must be an actual "XML" file like data.xml. Does that exist in Vmix? Like 127.0.0.1:8088/api/status.xml?

Can anyone think of a better way to get the data from the scoreboards? Any suggestions on this journey is welcome!

I gave up on a text based solution because I found a way that I like much better.

Using a program called sharex, I tell sharex to tweet a screen capture of the scoreboard every 10 minutes or so. I don't have to do anything, it happens in the background...
