Changes for release 4.31.0-alpha03

4.31.0-alpha03: all three types of result scoreboards are available for testing (see below). Team scoreboards have not been changed yet to use the colors.

Changes for 4.31. releases*

  • New parameterized scoreboards. Colors can be changed in the styles/colors.css file (colors also change the attempt board and decision display) . The default values are same as the previous defaults.
    The ratio of team column to name column can be changed in styles/results.css for federations that use very long team names. The scoreboards can be zoomed in or out using the Ctrl+ and Ctrl- keys to accommodate more lines, or conversely to make text bigger.
    • displays/results show results only, with ranks. If the screen is VGA or narrower (old-style projectors) then only the total rank is kept.
    • displays/resultsLeaders same, but with the leaders of the current athlete's main category shown at the bottom
    • displays/resultsLeadersRanks same, but all the ranks in all the eligible categories are shown.
  • Improvement: Break triggered by marshal creates a "Marshal Issue" notification to the other TOs.
  • Fix: Password issues. In some circumstances, password access to the application would stop working, requiring the use of configuration variables to override.
  • Fix: When running a round-robin competition, the weight requested between rounds can be lower than that at the last clock start. The normal check is therefore disabled.

Highlights from recent stable releases

  • Improved management of ceremonies

    • Documented new and improved Breaks and Ceremonies procedures, including the Medal Ceremony process. Ceremonies take place without interfering with countdown timers.
    • New Medals spreadsheet for the announcer see Result Documents.
    • Selectable behavior for public vs warmup scoreboards. Warmup scoreboards do not switch during the medal ceremonies.
    • Additional protocol templates with predefined paper sizes. Also included a version with snatch, clean&jerk and total ranks.
  • Jury console now supports summoning the referees either individually or all together. The jury console now allows direct reversal/confirmation of lifts (#435, #427)

  • The Refereeing screen (typically used on phones or tablets) now displays notifications when a decision is expected or when the jury summons the referee.

  • It is now possible to build affordable physical devices to receive instructions from owlcms (decision expected, jury calls referee) using MQTT. Software and circuit schematics are available at this location.

  • Video Streaming: Support for Open Broadcaster Software (OBS) automated scene switching. Added documentation for all supported transitions.

  • It is now possible to choose and override the Excel templates for competitions cards, the start list, the starting weight sheet, the results (protocol), and the final package (attempts, sinclair, robi, team results, etc.)

  • It is now possible to Export and Import the database content (#449). This allows taking a snapshot of the database in the middle of a competition. It also allows bringing back a Heroku database for local use, and conversely, setting up a competition locally prior to loading on Heroku.

  • Explicit support for participation to multiple age groups (#433)

  • All resources in the local directory take precedence over the built-in ones (visual styles, templates, age group definitions, sounds, etc.)

  • Implemented the rules to prevent athletes from moving down their requested weight illegally. Moving down is denied if the athlete should already have attempted that weight according to the official lifting order. The exact checks resulting from applying the TCRR to that situation are spelled out in the documentation. (#418)

  • Violations of rules for timing of declarations (before initial 30 seconds), and for changes (before final warning) are now signaled as errors (#425, #426). Overriding is possible for officiating mistakes.
