Producer
The producer app runs stream graphics, sponsors and the as-run report. It reads the score and can never change it.
Join a match
- From anywhere with internet. Open the producer app, sign in with your NGL account (Google or email), then open a match from Your matches, or type the producer code (
PR-ABCD-EFGH) the match operator gives you. Codes work once; the seat lasts until the end of the match day. - On the scoring computer, or the gym Wi-Fi. With the scoring console or NGL Local running, the app shows This computer · NGL Local: press Join on this link. A laptop or iPad uses the producer link NGL Local prints (it carries the pairing code).
- The commissioner sees Live now (every match scored in the last 6 hours) and can join any of them.
Your NGL account must have the 18+ confirmation. If the app asks for it, confirm on nglgridball.com/account, then come back.
Put the graphics in OBS
Press OBS link above the Program monitor to copy the overlay link for this match, then in OBS add a Browser source, paste the link, and set it to 1920 × 1080. In the cloud the link looks like https://scoreboard.nglgridball.com/?overlay=1&live=match_…; with NGL Local it is http://localhost:8790/?overlay=1.
In the cloud, OBS and the venue display read the graphics straight from the cloud and do not report back, so the app shows Outputs: not reported. Check OBS itself. Cloud: connected means your graphics are being saved.
