Ontime is an application for managing event rundowns and running stage timers.
|
||||
|
||||
It allows a center application to be able to distribute event information in the local network. This
|
||||
minimises needs for using Media Server outputs or expensive video distribution while allowing easy
|
||||
integration in workflows including OBS and d3.
|
||||
A single, locally hosted central application distributes your event information over the local network.
|
||||
This enables the distribution of the data to a series of viewers and allows integration into video and control workflows, including OBS and d3.

||||

||||

||||
|
||||
## Using Ontime
|
||||
|
||||
Once installed and running, ontime starts a background server that is the heart of all processes.
|
||||
The app, is used to add / edit your running order in the event list, and running the timers using
|
||||
the Playback Control function.
|
||||
Once installed and running, Ontime starts a background server that is the heart of all processes.
|
||||
From the app, you can add / edit your running order and control the timer playback.
|
||||
|
||||
From here, any device in the same network with a browser is able to render the views as described.
|
||||
Any device with a browser in the same network can choose one of the supported views to render the available data.
|
||||
This is done by reaching the ontime server at the _default port 4001_ eg: `localhost:4001`
|
||||
or `192.168.1.3:4001`
|
||||
You can then use the ontime logo in the top right corner to select the desired view (event in the
|
||||
lower thirds view, where it is hidden).

||||

You can then use the Ontime logo in the top left corner to select the desired view.
|
||||
The logo will be initially hidden until there is mouse interaction.

|

There are several features planned in the roadmap. These will be implemented in a development

friendly order unless there is user demand to bump any of them.
|

- [ ] HTTP Server (vMix integration)
|

- [ ] Improvements in event interface

- [ ] Lower Third Manager
|

- [ ] Reach Schedule: way to speedup timer to meet a deadline
|
||||
Several features are planned in the roadmap, and we continuously adjust this to match how users interact with the app.
