Streaming Settings

Section titled “Streaming Settings”

If the selected court has Mismatch Streaming equipment installed, additional options appear:

  1. Stream Mode: Toggle between Livestream (stream live + record) or Record-Only (no live stream)

  2. Livestream Type: Select Lite or Full based on your needs (see Streaming Tiers)

  3. Auto-Start/Auto-Stop:

    • Enable to automatically start/stop the stream at scheduled times
    • When auto-start is enabled, system begins initialization 10 minutes before start time. Actual stream starts approximately 5 minutes before scheduled time
    • Important: Manual start at exact scheduled time will take ~5 minutes due to initialization
    • Maximum stream duration is 4 hours. After that the stream will automatically stop regardless the state of the auto-stop option (enabled or not).

  4. YouTube Configuration: (Only displayed in Livestream stream mode)

    • Select one of the two YouTube integration methods:
      • Use the organisation’s YouTube channel: Automatically creates and manages YouTube events (see YouTube Integration)
      • Use stream key URI: Manually enter the stream key from a scheduled YouTube event
    • To stream to a second YouTube channel simultaneously, click “Add extra stream key URI” and paste the stream key from the second YouTube event

  5. Stream Event Tracking: Game event tracking determines how the system detects key moments during the game (quarter starts/ends, timeouts, breaks) to optimize camera positioning and automatically display graphics at break times. Choose from three tracking modes:

    • AUTO: The system automatically detects game state and events. Best for games with full scoreboard integration. Requires complete game data (score and shot clock) to function properly - if your game won’t use a shot clock or if scoreboard data is unreliable, choose Manual or Disabled mode instead.
    • MANUAL: You control the game state manually using the mobile Mismatch Streaming App. Select this when you want full control or when playing without standard timing equipment.
    • DISABLED: No automatic event detection. The stream continues with standard camera coverage throughout, without context-aware graphics or positioning adjustments.

  6. Audio Settings: Select Ambient (camera microphone) or Commentary (external microphone)

  7. Video Advertising: Upload promotional videos to play during the stream

    • Click “Upload MP4 Video” to add advertisement videos
    • Only MP4 file formats with audio are supported
    • Videos are saved to the event and available to play during the stream
    • Access and play ads from the stream control panel during timeouts, halftime, or breaks
    • Keep ads short (15-30 seconds) for better engagement

  8. Sponsor Logos:

    • Use the court diagram to add sponsor or partner logos at five court positions
    • Click the corresponding icon at any position to upload a logo (PNG files with transparent background recommended)
    • You can move, scale, rotate and remove an uploaded logo

  9. Load Recent Setups: Reuse streaming configurations from previous games

    • Click “Load Recent Setups” to view streaming settings from your last six games
    • Select a previous setup to apply the same configuration (YouTube settings, video ads, sponsor logos, etc.)
    • You can modify any loaded settings before creating the event
