How to create CombinedOutput Stadium LED

Författarlista

This example will create a stadium LED screen with two modes. Screen size is 1008X432PX with a frame rate of 60 fps.

 

 

Match mode with a CombinedOutput that has three parts: camera, scoreboard and banner.

result_match_mode

Into or full screen mode, where video is playing at the full screen.

result_fullscreen

Because the intro video will be shown on the main screen, it will be stretched.

So, either the video should support stretching, like abstractions (snowflakes, lights, plexus). Or be produced in the same format as a Main screen.

Preparation

ScreenController

Go to the settings and select *Main* ScreenController and change fps to 60.

sc_add_button

Press add button and add ScreenController for Scoreboard, set video format to custom and 240x332 at 30 fps.

Description

Main

1280x720 @60, camera and introduction videos

Scoreboard

240x332 @30, player picture and match information on the right side.

Banner

240x100 @30, ads (get event) and club logos.

Frame rate of the scoreboard and the banner are reduced to save resources because the content is mostly static.

Files, played on screen should generally match format with the ScreenController format.
