Scoreboard OCR

There are several ways how to send data from Scoreboard OCR to Tricaster:

1. Using XML output
2. Using CSV output. Still investigating
3. Using TXT output. Still investigating
4. Using Tricaster API. Still investigating
5. Using HTTP XML Feed output. Still investigating

1. Open your Tricaster Session
2. Make sure that you have activated File → Share Media Folders and Buffers. This option will create a windows share of the Tricaster Session “DataLink Watch” folder (it is located in the session folder, for example, D:\Sessions\Session_Name\Datalink Watch)
3. In Scoreboard OCR choose XML File output option, browse to your Network, select Tricaster computer and choose the “Datalink Watch” share. You can also use Map Network drive Windows feature to set up the Tricaster share as your network drive
4. You can enter any name for the XML File, it is not important
5. In Scoreboard OCR add field “Clock”
6. In Tricaster add your graphics Template (you can use LiveText to create new templates or use existing templates)
7. On your graphics template click on the wheel icon (bottom right of each template) to edit the template
8. Select and edit the tect field that you would like to use for clock value
9. In the Text field delete existing content and type “%root Clock%”
10. The Clock value will appear on Live/Preview windows (it will not appear in Template edit window)

Seems to be similar to XML, still investigating

This should make 1/10 of a second work, which is not supported by XML, TXT of CSV method, because these files are only read once a second by Tricaster
