This is a list of everything we do in digital media.
NewTek DataLink™ is a TriCaster™ and VT[5]™ plug-in that dynamically updates titles and overlays from external text feeds. With DataLink™, any Title Template can access data across the network and, in real-time, display scores, times, prices or any other rapidly-changing information on screen.
With DataLink™ installed, ‘key’entries from a field means that this field will be replaced with a live feed from, for example, the Daktronics’ clock input. There are no limits to the number of different feeds on a page, and the entries can mix with other text.
All text properties, alignment and fonts in the template are preserved.
DataLink™ can read input from almost any database, shared file folders or xml files. DataLink™ instantly updates your TriCaster™ with accurate, immediate data and is already compatible with existing systems, including Daktronics® scoreboards, IDS™, OES™ and White Way™ feeds.
The flexibility of auto-updating extends to static data as well. DataLink™ monitors changes made within xml files, and can monitor changes within text files.
DataLink™ is compatible with nearly all databases accessible by ADO, which includes database servers that have support for connection strings.

Given all this flexibility, you still have the ability to customize DataLink™ to your own needs with NewTek’s freely-supplied Software Development Kit.
