Ahum,can't resist.

Saying that scoreboards are the most important thing for almost everyone sounds a bit like a stretch IMO and to base this on sports like soccer and basketball shortsighted.

There are so many sports where complecity and time one has to update elements are way more dificult than that and yet vMix makes it possible from achieve life updates to on screen results.
Imagine a few hundred performers who do their performance one after the other within one minute from each other includig a performaner data ,timer , get a score on their performance during said performance ( faults ) and a ranking result the moment an individual's performance ends for example . Possible with what vMix has to offer and not by manually editing the title.

we have options to greate own titles with data fields
we can manually change data in those fields
BUT we can also update that data from various sources to make it more specific or easyer even automate (calculate) lot of things.

So the special module will still need to be created for most of us who don't cover "popular" sports or other datarich events in general.

But one can with vMix !

Before I discoverd vMix I stumbled on casparcg and was impressed with the data controlers (clients) many created to get data in titels ( or scoreboards). When I stumbled on vMix I discovered this could be done with vmix too be it from same computer , second computer and more. in short titles ( scoreboards) can be udated with shortcuts ( for values for example) , manually , selecting from a list but most important all the same things can be controlled externally using custom controllers sending the needed data (see API)

The problem is not in vMix but IMO the small amount of such examples and uses found here and initially the differenc between updating flash titles versus xaml titles and its effects possible (animations)

Vmix just can not cover all sort of sports or type of events and its specifics but it lets you create your own which IMO is the biggest asset vMix has apart fromm the main thing being the video side of things.

just my opinion


ps example of soccer clients for casparcg

ps2 your graphics look cool

Understand the pricing (most common popular sports ? ;-) ), but not regarding the vMix one in relation to the scoreboard clients. no idea how american football works either.


There are in fact are various examples of such clients (casparcg has one on their main site with sourcecode to give you an idea)

in its most basic form one can create a form with some buttons in it to send data ( or score) to a title (yes loaded on second laptop in same network or second monitor) sending a httprequest with appropriate API code (same as shortcuts)

Titles (templates)are one thing getting the wanted data into them is the other or where one can make ones life easyer

Just saying currently vMix makes it possible for any form of data one needs to get on screen in a userspecific fashion.

example directly from excel

@elgarf
I made graphic for this and thats exactly what I was thinking and suggest to vMix. Something like you did just with timer and timer settings

Are you good in programming? Can you make this kind of a module that I draw earlier? Can we make some partnership on this project?

@Siroki

I can make almost everything from your mockup, except "Scoreboard design" list, it's because vMix reads in/out animations only for first loading of title, so if I load another title dynamically, it's in/out animations doesn't happens.

This limitations are because my vMixWpfScoreboardLoader is just an advanced title.

Btw what's difference between soccer, basketball, tennis scoreboards, can it be controlled by one type of scoreboard controller?

This looks great. Can you make a download file so everyone can use it?
Do you have some video of live game so we can see how does it look like live?
I see that you have teamlists too, very nice

This is what I manage to do with XAML, standard transition, shortcuts and my own graphics:

I have one for soccer already, can you use this and try



gray->short team names
blue -> score 0-0
black-> timer

Nice job!!!
Looks very nice and this is what I was thinking and suggest for vMix

I made the hole soccer pack and deal with scoreboard over shortcuts but I will try this.
Maybe vMix will consider this and try to make something like this to be a standard edition in next versions

:)

I am working on this as we speak, i am able to

- add/delete inputs for any title/sports.
- turn on/off any images (Sponsors, Station ID, etc..)
- add/change logo's, text fields, scores, start/stop/pause/reset clock timers etc...

- Not good on the graphic design of scoreboards...
- Not familiar with the different scoring for different sports.
- Will develop each sport.. 1 at a time

- What i lack is the graphic design side of things and the knowledge of the scoring for each sport.
- Would need input / feedback on what users want and need for features...

1) Scoreboard Controller Template Design/functions
2) Scoreboard Design Template Design/functions

Love the idea of this - we do a lot of baseball coverage and defining shortcuts for balls, strikes, pitch counts, bases, errors etc takes a lot of setting up and maintenance. A complete score controller would make life a lot easier for anyone to manage.
