Guides

Overlays and scoreboards

Overlays are drawn onto the court's picture, so they appear on the court display, in recordings and on the stream. Each scene has its own.

In this guide

  1. Add a layer
  2. Scoreboard
  3. Timer
  4. Text and lower thirds
  5. Logos and sponsors (Broadcast)
  6. Edit live

Add a layer

In the "Overlays" tab choose "+ Add Layer..." and pick a type: "Text", "Scoreboard", "Timer", "Image", "Lower Third" or "Sponsors". Image and Sponsors are part of Broadcast; the rest are in every plan.

Scoreboard

Type the "Home Team" and "Away Team" names, then use "+1" and "-1" for each side. MAW Live holds the score itself, so every screen and every operator sees the same score. A referee runs the scoreboard of their assigned courts.

Timer

Choose "Clock", "Countdown" ("Countdown from (mm:ss)") or "Stopwatch", then "Start", "Stop" and "Reset". For a countdown, "At 00:00" chooses "Hold at 00:00" or "Count on (-00:01)".

Text and lower thirds

A text layer has a font size, "Bold", a color, an alignment and an optional "Background box". A lower third is a name and a title you bring in and out with "Show" and "Hide".

Logos and sponsors (Broadcast)

An "Image" layer shows your logo or a sponsor's: set its "Image Path" to a PNG, JPEG or GIF on the PC. "Sponsors" rotates a playlist of sponsor logos on the picture and the stream.

Edit live

Changes reach the picture within about a second ("Syncing..." shows while they do). On the preview:

  • Drag a layer to move it, and drag its handles to resize it. Layers snap to the edges; hold Alt to place one freely, and Shift to keep or free its shape.
  • With a layer selected, the arrow keys nudge it and Ctrl and an arrow resizes it.
