Broadcast

One URL runs the whole show.

Every other overlay makes the operator wire scenes by hand before anything looks like a broadcast. Attempt ships one browser source per platform that directs itself off the meet: it calls the lifter, ticks the minute, reveals the referees’ cards one seat at a time, stamps the verdict with what it did to the placings, and puts the tower up between flights. Below is that overlay, running on a simulated meet. Nothing here is a video.

Ask to run a meet

The Broadcast tab lives in MeetOS beside the platform console — URLs, theme, and a live preview. Watch a meet run to see what feeds it.

Or take one piece at a time

Every widget has a URL of its own, at the same position on the same 1920 × 1080 canvas — so a light board on its own corner of the stream lines up pixel for pixel with the self-directed overlay you would otherwise have used.

  • Lower third

    ?scene=lower-third

    The name, the bar, the card so far, and what it is worth.

  • Lights and clock

    ?scene=lights + ?scene=clock

    Cards as they land, and the minute, drift-free.

  • Full leaderboard

    ?scene=standings

    The full table for one scoring group, ten rows a page.

  • Up next

    ?scene=up-next

    Now, on deck, in the hole — and the three after.

Add it to OBS

Four steps, no software to install, nothing to keep running on the laptop but the browser source itself. The overlay polls the meet once a second and keeps the last frame it had if the venue’s wifi drops — an error never reaches the stream.

  1. Add a Browser Source

    In OBS, add a Browser Source to the scene your camera is in. Put it above the camera layer.

  2. Paste the platform URL

    /meets/<slug>/broadcast/<platform> — one per platform. The Broadcast tab in MeetOS copies it for you.

  3. Set it to 1920 × 1080

    Width 1920, height 1080, and leave the background alone: the page is transparent, so your camera shows through it.

  4. Point it at one widget, or all of them

    ?scene= takes lower-third, lights, clock, verdict, up-next, standings or bug. Leave it off and the overlay directs itself. ?units=lb prints pounds under the kilos.
