When an overlay is set to Manual Mode, you control exactly when graphics appear on your live stream. Click any graphic in the Control Room to show it on screen, then click it again to hide it. The graphics available depend on your sport and the theme assigned to your competition.

​

Manual Mode gives you precise control over graphic timing - you decide when each element appears and disappears during the broadcast.

​

To show a graphic, first open the Control Room for your overlay by selecting Control Room from the overlay's Actions menu. Once inside, click any graphic to show it on the live stream - it will appear on your broadcast output immediately. To hide the same graphic later, simply click it again, and it will disappear from your broadcast output right away.

​

The specific graphics available in your Control Room vary by sport and configuration. Common controls include:

​

* Scoreboard

​

* Player graphics

​

* Statistics

​

* Lower thirds

​

* Event graphics

​

* Custom graphics

​

Manual Mode requires you to click each graphic to show it, whereas Auto Mode displays graphics automatically when match events are logged. To check or change your overlay's control mode, go to Overlay Settings by selecting Settings from the overlay's Actions menu - the Control Mode setting there shows whether you're in Manual Mode or Auto Mode.

If your overlay is set as a Controller Overlay, showing graphics in this Control Room will display them on all overlays assigned under this controller. This lets you control graphics on multiple overlays simultaneously from one Control Room.
