Found In Egroup: Graphics \ view thread
Hey Everyone, Trying to find a way to send a trigger from a switcher (via Ross Talk) to Take Next (or maybe a different command) in an Xpression group, and to continue to loop that group. Basically doing sports with a sponsored replay. There are only 4 sponsors and they live in a group on the ...

Hey Wajahat Ali, I appreciate the reply. Unfortunately I want to go the other direction. The data already lives in Datalinq (it is already on the network via a UDP port), and I just want to display it using Dashboard, if possible. It is data that is already being generated from a scoreboard. ...

Does anyone know of a way to use Dashboard (or some other program) to display Clock and Score data for visual reference on our monitor wall? We already have the data available on our network via UDP, which is how it feeds Datalinq on all of our Xpression computers. I am just wondering if there is ...

Thanks for the reply Garner. I'm still fairly new to scripting, so I want to make sure I am understanding it correctly. In the following script, the only part i need to change would be the "Group 1" text, correct? For example, if the group was named "Sponsor Rotation", then the script would need ...

Hey Everyone, I have a group of 3 pages that loop. No issue with the loop portion. However, the powers that be now want a sponsor page to go up to play first, then the group loops. Is there a way to only play the first page once, then the rest of the group (pages 2-4) loops continuously? Thanks! ...

Hey Garrett, Luckily it hasn't come to that. Just a few logos that have caused some issues. Easily fixed prior to the game, but this method will help long-term. ------------------------------ Kurt ------------------------------

Thanks! That all seems to be working great. One last question: is it possible to make the logo path change after is is on-air? Or do I need to take it offline first, change the dropdown, and put it on-air again? For example, if the primary logo is selected, but I change it to the secondary one ...

Thanks Red! Would there be an easy way to make those selectable? For example, in my scenario the folder will always be either "Logo" or "AltLogo". Is it possible to make those two options the only options so that someone can't accidentally map to the wrong location by misspelling "AltLogo"? -- ...

For an out of town score, I utilize datalink keys to select the correct game. So each game in the RSS is ID'd by the game number, and pulls the correct ...

I have not scripted yet. Definitely open to learning if it will help. I was trying to avoid bringing them in as materials so that I could dynamically add to the images folder or make changes as needed without needing to re-bring in each new image. Thanks again! ------------------------------ ...
