The minimum you are required to do is add the video source and turn on your broadcast. The score overlay, field camera, camera changes, etc etc. are all handled by the professionals. Again, at the regional level. I've heard Code Red uses a GoPro camera to stream a full-field view for multiple FiM districts since they don't have camera crews at some.

What do you mean the "Professionals"? At the events I'm going to there will be no professionals that I know of... I have been asked to run the Red Stick Rumble webcast and later in the year, possibly help out with a couple of Houston VEX league play events. As far as I know, there will be no professional web-casters there. I'm trying to learn how this works so I can make it work at these events. As of now, I run my own photography and video production business (www.LernerPhoto.smugmug.com). I have a good bit of experience with cameras, but this will be my first dabble into webcast production.

Thanks for the info on Code Red by the way. I have been trying to find out for some time on their webcast setup. I have heard many great things about it. I have also heard rumors about a "Code Red Box."

Anyway, thanks!
