Broadcast: graphics and venue screen

The open water desk has two video outputs:

  • Graphics (GC) — the transparent overlay placed over the broadcast video (in OBS): start list, race clock, finishes, results and podium;
  • Venue screen — the full screen for the audience, on a monitor or projector.

Both are driven by the Production desk — graphics and screen, in its own window. There is no serial scoreboard and no lanes: in open water, what makes the screen is each finish.
