I have used Vmix for football and basketball games with live scoreboards and video replays. Last year I was part of a MMA event that was streamed live to a PPV site. I used Vmix to do the live editing and stream the event. There were four cameras, two stationary and two manned. We had two TV monitors as well as two video feeds going to two giant projection screens. The event was recorded to hard drive via Vmix and the final output was fed to a DVR for backup. This was the first time I done anything like this and it was the first time I used Vmix but it went really well.

Here is a link to a few sections of one of the fights.

Looks very good.
Quick question - what do you use for the graphics - Flash I presume.
And for the video feeds going to the projectors, how do you do that ... VLC??

The graphics were still photo shop files that I used in After Effects to do the animation and make into a video file with an alpha channel. I used a VGA to S-video/Composite video converter which went into a video & audio distribution amplifier with four outputs. The two monitors and the two projectors all received video from the distribution amplifier.

Very impressive! Is it possible to get the official time from the referee laptop and display it on the output?

I don't understand your question. I am not sure what you are asking for. Is it the time left in each round you are asking if it could be put on the output?
