European Youth Orienteering Championships — live sports broadcast from multiple locations
In beautiful Szczecin our OB van produced the live broadcast of orienteering — the three-day European Youth Orienteering Championships (EYOC 2024). We brought the signal together from several locations using the LiveU system, while the EVS system prepared the replays and highlights.

A competition held out in the field, across several locations at once
Orienteering is a sport that happens on the move and in dispersion — competitors follow a course by map through the streets and parks of the city, and the action spreads across several points at the same time. To show it in television quality, the signal had to be gathered from many locations simultaneously and brought together into a single broadcast feed.
The challenge was to keep the coverage continuous across the three days of competition — from the start, through the course, to the finish — so that online viewers always knew what was happening out on the course.

An OB van, the field signal over LiveU and EVS replays
We ran the production from our OB van, which was the on-site production hub. The signal from cameras set up in several locations was delivered to us by the LiveU system, so we could show the course from many points at the same time. The programme was mixed on a Ross Carbonite switcher.
Live replays and highlight summaries of the best moments were prepared by the EVS replay system — exactly as in a professional television production. It was all rounded off by a well-drilled, cheerful crew and smooth communication throughout the competition.

A complete, television-grade broadcast of a field competition
Viewers got a smooth, multi-camera orienteering broadcast from multiple locations, with replays of the best action and summaries of the finest moments. The European Championships in Szczecin were produced the television way — with the picture quality and pace you expect from a professional sports broadcast.
It is a good example that broadcasting a competition held out in the field is not one camera at the finish line — it is a multi-camera production: signal from many points, directing the sources, replays and reliable delivery throughout the whole event.

How much does a live sports competition broadcast cost?
The price depends on the scale: the number of cameras and locations, use of an OB van, a replay system, the number of broadcast days and the graphics. A single-day competition covered by a few cameras is priced differently from a multi-day event held across several locations. Describe your format — we prepare a quote within one business day.
How do you broadcast competitions held out in the field, across several locations?
We deliver the signal from cameras set up at different points to the OB van using the LiveU system. This lets us show several places on the course at once and bring everything together into a single, smooth broadcast feed — just as at the European Youth Orienteering Championships in Szczecin.
Do you prepare replays and highlights live?
Yes. We use an EVS replay system that prepares replays of the best action during the broadcast and, after the competition, a summary with the finest moments. It is the standard of professional sports production.
Do you produce broadcasts from an OB van?
Yes. Our production OB van is a mobile production hub with a switcher, a replay channel and a full crew. We bring it to wherever the competition takes place — a stadium, an arena or out in the field.
Do you handle multi-day sports events?
Yes. We produced the European Championships in Szczecin across three days of competition, keeping the pace and quality of coverage from the start to the finish. We handle both single competitions and multi-day events with replays and highlights on the fly.
Where can the competition broadcast be watched?
We deliver broadcasts on the platform chosen by the organiser — most often YouTube, but also closed platforms or social media. We prepare the signal so it reaches viewers in the highest quality.
Planning a competition or sports event broadcast?
We can take on the entire production — OB van, cameras, field signal over LiveU, EVS replays, graphics and delivery — or just the part you need. Tell us what you are organising and we will prepare a quote within one day.
