Every change you can see on air or in the control panel — new sports, new scorebug styles, and fixes. If your overlay looks different from last weekend, this is the place to check why.
Bigger releases get a full write-up on the blog.
Sending { "clock": { "running": false } } to the push API used to put the clock back to where the period started instead of stopping it where it was — so a peripheral that stopped the clock at 11:23 of a 15-minute quarter showed 15:00. It now stops at the time actually on the clock. Send currentTimeMs alongside it only if your device is the authority on the time.
Read more →The Peripheral Push API card now shows the scoreboard ID with a copy button next to it, so wiring up a game clock or Raspberry Pi no longer means digging the ID out of the browser address bar. The push token below it is now labelled as such, rather than sitting unlabelled next to its buttons.
Read more →YoloBox now has its own step-by-step guide, linked from the resolution picker: which canvas resolution to pick, how to resize the Web URL Overlay widget so the scorebug fills the frame, and what to do if your canvas is not one of the three presets. Previously this lived as a single entry in the OBS guide's troubleshooting list.
Read more →Handball joins the sport list with a Standard broadcast bar: team codes and scores, a continuous match clock across halves and extra time, timeouts, up to three independently-timed 2-minute exclusion penalties per team, and an empty-goal indicator.
Read more →A new MMA/UFC-inspired "Ultimate" style for Boxing: fighter plates with corner-colour bars, an optional ranking badge, a per-round progress tracker, and an uploadable event/association logo.
Hockey joins the sport list with three overlay styles — Scorebug, Broadcast Bar, and Network Style — plus penalties and power-play tracking, team timeouts with an on-overlay timeout clock, and an optional match banner (e.g. PLAYOFFS) on the broadcast-style bugs.
The Classic and Fox soccer scorebugs kept counting straight through 45:00/90:00 instead of stopping for stoppage time. All three non-World-Cup soccer styles (Classic, Fox, and 94 Classic) now stop the main clock at the half's regulation duration and show a live "+m:ss" indicator alongside it, matching the World Cup 2026 style.
"Copy YoloBox URL…" now copies a short link (scorelayer.live/xy7umnsg-style) with your chosen resolution baked in, instead of a long URL with query parameters — much quicker to type on YoloBox's on-screen keyboard.
Read more →"Copy YoloBox URL" now opens a quick picker for your canvas resolution (1280×720, 1920×1080, or 3840×2160) instead of requiring you to hand-edit the copied link — the right size is baked in automatically.
Read more →The scoreboard could render with a solid dark background instead of a transparent one on embeds that don’t fully honor page transparency (e.g. YoloBox’s Web URL Overlay). The overlay now forces a transparent background explicitly instead of relying on the renderer to composite it correctly.
A new Boxing sport with a red-corner/blue-corner scorebug: round counter with a per-bout total-rounds setting, a round clock, and controls for knockdowns, warnings, and point deductions on both corners, plus weight class and bout title.
Read more →Some broadcast conventions put the home team on the left, others on the right. A new swap button on the team setup card flips which side each team — name, colours, logo and all — appears on, on both the control panel and the live overlay. The "Home"/"Away" labels follow wherever the swap put them.
YoloBox's own "Web URL Overlay" feature has a known bug that crops a web overlay regardless of its content. The control panel now has a "Copy YoloBox URL" button (scoreboards/yolobox?token=…) that wraps the overlay in a fixed-size iframe — YoloLiv's own documented workaround for the bug — so YoloBox users no longer need to self-host anything.
Read more →PATCH /api/v1/scoreboards/{id}/push accepts a new flag field — true throws the penalty flag, false clears it — and it combines freely with a clock, score, or event update in the same push.
Read more →PATCH /api/v1/scoreboards/{id}/push accepts a new event section — { team, type: 'touchdown' | 'goal' } — for a device that just wants to report a scoring play. The server adds the points (touchdown +6, goal +1) and triggers the on-air scoring animation, so a physical button press is one API call with no local score tracking required.
Read more →GET /api/v1/scoreboards/{id}/state returns a board's current score, clock and sport, for a device resyncing after a reboot instead of guessing. PATCH .../push also accepts ?include=state to fold the same information straight into a push response.
Read more →The Peripheral Push API now has a proper reference at /docs/api — every field, example and error it can return, with the raw OpenAPI document at /api/v1/openapi.json for Postman, Insomnia and client codegen. The API itself is still a work in progress and will grow: expect new endpoints and fields, and check the reference for what is live today.
Read more →Hiding down & distance used to leave an empty white band behind. It now opens and closes from its centre line, and the clock and period close up into a centred pair when it goes. A penalty flag still brings the band back.
The API for scoring peripherals moved to /api/v1, accepts full team scores, validates what you send it, and tags updates with a sequence number so a late request can never overwrite a newer score.
The foul band was cutting the bug in half on free accounts. It now sits below the bug.
Preview widths were hardcoded per style, so some bugs were shown wider or narrower than they render on air. The preview now measures the bug itself.
A fourth basketball style, modelled on Amazon’s basketball coverage.
Read more →An overlay tab now reads "Overlay - <sport> - <team1> vs <team2>", so a row of OBS browser sources is finally telling them apart.
The Standard basketball scorebug is twice the size, and the ESPN one moved to bottom-centre.
The clean, centred look from the Paris games, with a foul band under the bug.
Read more →Basketball joins the lineup with quarters, fouls, team timeouts and three scorebug styles to pick from.
Read more →Also fixed the overlays shown in the examples gallery, which had drifted from the live ones.
Read more →Show a flag per player, on a scorebug sized for broadcast, with the setup fields grouped sensibly.
Read more →One side was placing them inconsistently.
A bottom-right football bug with team-colour panels, a wide landscape logo slot and a touchdown banner that counts the score up.
Read more →Holding the stepper no longer bounces the value while the update is in flight.
On soccer, the bug stays on screen through the countdown instead of being replaced by it.
Move to the second half and the clock picks up from 45:00 without a second click.
Read more →Switching scorebug style used to need an overlay reload. It now lands on air the moment you pick it, like a score does.
The score rolls up and the bug reacts when you add a goal.
Read more →The clock is aware of which half it is in when you add time, and the digits no longer shift the bug as they tick.
Put a custom label under the bug, set how many timeouts each team gets, and show a timeout on the bug itself. Built for Flagg-NM 2026.
Read more →End the game on the bug instead of leaving the clock at 0:00 in the fourth.
Invites used to cover the whole account. You can now scope someone to one board. Ideal if you have a volunteer for a single game.
Uploading a team logo no longer needs a subscription.
Point the overlay at kick-off time and it counts down to it, then hands over to the scorebug. Every sport has one.
Read more →The look of the 2026 tournament coverage, for soccer.
Read more →A modern broadcast bug and a throwback to USA ’94.
Read more →A step-by-step walkthrough of adding your overlay as a browser source, with the sizes to use.
Read more →Countdown clocks switch to tenths for the last ten seconds, the way broadcast clocks do.
Generate a push token on the control page and post scores from a stream deck, a macro pad or your own script.
Marketing pages and the control panel load noticeably quicker, and the overlay reconnects faster.
Set and game handling that survives a real match, plus a usable control layout.
Read more →A wide, low bug with the possession indicator built into the team panels.
Score a touchdown from the control panel and the overlay celebrates it.
Grouped cards, collapsible sections and a play-state card, instead of one long column of inputs.
Sets, games and points, with tiebreaks — and a scorebug shaped for tennis rather than a scoreline.
Read more →Down without distance, no ball-on, and two timeouts a side by default.
Read more →A three-dimensional bug with possession colour and a textured surface.
The Classic scorebug shows an arrow rather than a circle, Compact stopped tying possession to ball-on, soccer respects the hide-clock toggle, and pool labels a frame as "Frame" for snooker and carom.
Frame and rack scoring with a vertical bug that suits a table camera.
Read more →Hand the control panel to whoever is operating the stream, without sharing your login.
Throw a flag from the control panel, and see at a glance who has the ball.
Halves, added time and a scoreline built for soccer rather than adapted from football.
Read more →A transparent scoreboard overlay for OBS, Streamlabs and vMix, driven from a control panel in the browser: score, game clock, period, down and distance, ball-on and timeouts, updating on air as you press the buttons. American football at launch, with the Classic and Compact scorebugs.
