Automatic mode and advertising
A competition day without touching the scoreboard: introduction, race, results, then, when the track is resting, the overall standings from EVENT and the sponsors.
Example: the Coupe Hollywood on ECRAN-PUBLIC, with a made-up business, the “Café de l'Anneau”.
1. One view per moment
| Moment (panel, VIEWS) | View | States shown |
|---|---|---|
| Athlete introductions | Starford introductions (with photos) | Loaded |
| Race | Starford standings (a copy of the default view) | Loaded, In progress, Finished |
| Results | Starford results (the same, sorted by position) | Finished |
| Pause | Exemple-Pause (logo, time, message “Next race at 3:10 p.m.”) | — |
| Overall standings (EVENT) | Exemple-ClassementGeneral | — |
Then DURATIONS: Presentation (s) 15, Hold after the end (s) 5, Results (s) 20, Advertising after (min, 0: never) 5, Overall standings after 120 s, and Then the advertising.
2. The advertising
- An image
Copy “cafe-de-l-anneau.png” into the ads folder (Ads folder), then ADVERTISING → Image and choose it. Duration 10 s.
- A text
Text: the text editor opens. Write “Next races”, then the times, in colour; Save.
- A video
Video: a slow-motion replay of the start (mp4), played without sound; 20 s.
- The order
▲ ▼ for the order of the loop; untick an item to skip it without losing it.
The panel's Advertising button shows the loop right away; Automatic hands it back to the scenario.
Details for each kind: Advertising.
3. The day
| In FINISH | On the scoreboard (reason in the panel) |
|---|---|
| Pair P03 is loaded | Starford introductions, 15 s (“présentation”), then Starford standings, the start list (“course chargée”) |
| Start | Starford standings, the clock runs (“course en cours”) |
| Last finish | the race for 5 more seconds, then Starford results, 20 s (“résultats”) |
| The race becomes run | Exemple-Pause (“pause”) — or the introduction of the next pair, already loaded |
| Nothing for 2 min (ice resurfacing) | The overall standings, page by page (“classement général”) |
| One round of the races later | The advertising in a loop |
| The next pair is loaded | The introduction comes back on the very next frame |
During the intermission, a scenario button takes over (manual mode, “Manual: advertising”); do not forget Automatic before racing resumes.
