Output format validation
To make sure that Scoreboard OCR uses time delimiters and does not output invalid match time, we have introduced format validation
| Validation format | Example output | Use case |
|---|---|---|
| Custom | Number | There is no validation, this is the default format. Use this for team score, fouls, etc |
| Time (mm:ss) | 5:13 | When capturing match time or penalty time, that never goes into 1/10 of a second |
| Time (mm:ss, ss.d) | 12:45, 45.9 | When capturing match time, that might display 1/10 of a second during the last minute of the match (usually basketball) |
| Time (hh:mm:ss.d) | 12:05:13.4 | When capturing athletics or swimming clock |
| 24sec shot clock (ss) | 19 | When capturing 24sec shot clock that does not go into 1/10 a second in basketball |
| 24sec shot clock (ss, s.d) | 4.9 | When capturing 24sec shot clock that goes into 1/10 a second in basketball (6 → 5 → 4.9 → 4.8) |
| 30sec shot clock (ss) | 29 | When capturing 30sec shot clock (NCAA basketball) |
| 30sec shot clock (ss, s.d) | 4.9 | When capturing 30sec shot clock that goes into 1/10 a second in basketball (6 → 5 → 4.9 → 4.8) |
| 45sec shot clock (ss) | 41 | When capturing 45sec shot clock |
| Period (1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, OT) | 2nd | When capturing the period number for basketball |
| Period Custom (1st…9th) | 5th | When capturing the period number for other sports |
| Symbols | Number | Recognize timeouts, fouls, serve directions, etc |
| Script | Any value | Create customized output |
Additional features
- Ignore Empty values - deals with a situation when someone/something covers the scoreboard during the match or scoreboard is powered off right after the match (very useful for match time and score)
