Has anyone made a scorecard for Australian football. One that has points and goals and can update the total when you update the points and goals, being 6 points added to the total when a goal is kicked?

Do you have an example graphic to show how everything would be organised?

See if any of the following templates would be suitable if modified slighty:

Any of them would be fine. All we need is
Home (Goals) (points) Total
Away (Goals) (points) Total

But total = (goals x 6) + points
And a count up timer
The thing I haven't worked out yet is how to make the Total update when you hotkey the goals or points.

Total update is easy to hotkey using flash overlay if scoring is fixed like in basketball
- 1 point for free throws
- 2 points regular shot
- 3 for 3-point shot
You will only need 3 hotkeys to add points +1, +2 and +3

I'm not familiar with Australian Football and how the scoring/points works.
If you can explain how the scoring works, maybe we can find a solution for your scorecard.

GOAL +6
POINTS = ???

@ dvcom
I'm not clear on the goals/points thing either.
Are there 2 scores for each team, goals and points (i.e. 4 variables total)?
Or is there just the score as per the vMix templates (2 variables)?
When using Shortcut keys, use the Set Text function and use "+=1" in the value field to increase by 1 or "+=6" to increase the value by 6 etc. You'll need a hot key for each variable and/or value change.

Being Australian, I can shed some light on the points system of Aussie Rules/AFL. It can be confusing for those who don't know. The scoreboards usually look like this:

(example)
GOALS | BEHINDS | TOTAL
20 | 6 | 126

There would be two of the above, 1 for home, 1 for away (6 number boxes in total).

So goals are worth 6 points each (these are the posts in the middle), if they kick and it goes in the posts either side it is a 'behind' which is 1 point each. So in the above example, that team's total is:
20 goals (at 6 points each, totalling 120) plus 6 behinds, with a grand total of 126 points.

So you could control this by using shortcut keys. So when you initiate a shortcut key that adds 1 extra goal, you can use the advanced tab to also trigger a different key that adds 6 to the total and etc for the behinds as well.

There currently isn't a scoreboard in vMix that supports this (you would need 6 boxes in total). If you know how to edit the XML file, you could create this yourself.

Is there a universal symbol for GOAL and BEHINDS that Australian football fans can understand when watching at the scoreboard?
Like "G" for goals or some graphics and "B" for behinds. I will incorporate it in the scoreboard design because I'm making one now :)

I will share it here and It will be in XAML format :)

There are no symbols for the goals and points. it would just have the name then goals as zero and the points as zero then the total as zero. there also has to be a count up clock.

What kind of scoreboard is running at the event. We can probably supply an interface to directly drive your scoreboard from the scoreboard data.

Here is the final scoreboard design. Refer to vmixsupport's post above on how to shortcut key this. Download link at the bottom.

The sportscast system could interface direct to the scoreboard in your stadium and feed your graphic below. This would then feed a dynamically changing PNG file or a XAML animation. An example of this is at www.youtube.com/asa18gold . The scoreboard in this feed was directly connected to the scoreboard and then fed to VMix.

Here is the LiveCG control panel with your image https://www.dropbox.com/...b1vob52us03u6/LiveCG.png

All we need is the make and model of the scoreboard controller running at the stadium.

For Football we use real people as scorers and they sit in the room with us. In most cases the vision mixer person will do the scoring or its running to a 1 metre x 4 metre full colour scoreboard with logo graphics between quarters. We run a cricket scoring package that gives a xml feed and this has been developed into a page that can be viewed on a web browser.

All our scoreboards take a vision input, HDMI or DVI, most times we run straight off the second screen of a computer.

sportzcast, The scoring system at most Aussie Rules Grounds is a couple of kids hanging black tin squares with white numbers on them, on hooks on a large board ten feet above the ground. Only the major leagues have any kind of electronic scoring system! :-)
