Streaming a game from your gym? The viewers should see the same clock as the players. With Shot Clock Pro the phone that runs the game also feeds the stream, so nobody has to type a score into a second program.
OBS: a browser source
- Open the clock on the gym screen and connect your phone as the remote.
- On the remote, open Settings and tap Copy OBS overlay link.
- In OBS, add a Browser source, paste the link and set the size to your canvas, for example 1920 × 1080.
The background is transparent. A bar sits in the bottom left corner with the shot clock in red digits. In game mode it also shows the score of both teams, the period and the game clock. With your club set up, its name or logo is shown next to the clock.
vMix: a JSON data source
On the remote, Settings shows a vMix data source link. In vMix, open Data Sources, add a JSON source and paste the link. You get one row of text fields: shot clock, game clock, period, score and team names, time-outs, team fouls with bonus, and possession. Link them to the fields of your own title, so the graphics stay in your style.
Safe to hand to the stream laptop
Both links only read. The overlay and the data source follow the remote but cannot start, stop or reset anything, so the person running the stream cannot touch the clock by accident.
The overlay and the vMix link are part of Shot Clock Pro, €12 a season or €25 once. Run the shot clock for free first: open the clock.
