Match poster: frequently asked questions

Does the match poster show the score?

No. It is a pre-match announcement: teams, tournament, stage and time. The live score is run with the Esports score widget.

Can I show a countdown before the esports match?

Yes. You enter the match date and time, and the countdown layout counts down to the scheduled time.

Can I announce the match at the bottom of the screen?

Yes. The lower third layout fits the time, the match and the tournament on a single line, for the bottom of the screen.

Can I edit the poster from the Control Room?

The Control Room shows or hides the announcement. To change the teams, the tournament or the time, the "Edit" button opens the editor.
