OBS Scoreboard Help??

[Teedge]

Livestreaming 8Ball Pool - 4 x Cameras, 4 x Tables, 2 x Players per table.

I have 16 text files

Folder 1:
Player 1.txt, Player 2.txt, Player 3.txt and Player 4.txt
Score 1.txt, Score 2.txt, Score 3.txt and Score 4.txt

Folder 2:
Player 1.txt, Player 2.txt, Player 3.txt and Player 4.txt
Score 1.txt, Score 2.txt, Score 3.txt and Score 4.txt

These text files are automatically updated from a website.

Sometimes the website temporarily crashes or players are not updating their scores at times.

I'm wanting some type of scoreboard (or anything) that can read and edit each text file easily.

Currently I open each individual text file edit and save...


This might be going a bit far but if I could do this from a tablet (android) connected to the same wifi network as the pc running it.

That would be my absolute ideal situation.

So players / spectators can see the score on the tablet and have the ability to update.

Why not web overlay plus you have the benefit of having JSON which you can save. Just enter into a form and be done with it. Just enter whose playing and load the game then enter the data as it happens. It's pretty simple from there on you can click a player and enter it. You most likely want JSON for this. Browser source is your friend. Then you could have just a tablet entering data and it could run by itself even if you are away from the computer. In other words if the stream was loaded you could just enter data as it goes and the stream would update automatically no matter where you are in the world. Everyone could see the ongoing results.
