Terminology: #

Boards: Their main purpose is to simplify the management of your entries. They have a URL that can be used within OBS or XSplit to show your cool stuff.

Entries: Each entry consists out of four parts:

  • Trigger: A shortcut that decides when the entry should be shown
  • Source: The image, sound, or video which either can be stored locally or linked from the web
  • Effect: The way how your entry gets displayed
  • Animation: Defining what animation will be used by showing and hiding your entry.
