Free Scoreboard coming for laptops

[Silverhorse 228]

The HHEFL uses a computer program that I downloaded last year for our scoreboard. The site no longer exist (that I can find), but it was created by a Subbeteo enthusiast in an effort to create a unique scoreboard to do away with their cardboard scoreboards. The program was free off the internet, as the Subbeteo leagues share all ideas that they come up with and this one was really well done.

Lynn and I are currently working on trying to get it to down load on this site. It is 12.4 MB and if for some reason we can not get it to down load, then I will be willing to mail a copy to anyone that wants a copy.

The scoreboard is cool for several reasons, but mostly because it runs smooth, can be adjusted at any point in the game and can be customized including to put photos in the background such as a crowd, logo or football scene.

If we have any computer experts out there...I could use your help. I have a IBM Thinkpad that I currently run this program on and I would like to hook the screen up to a portable DVD player, so I can mount it up to my stadium and have a working score board. The problem I am having is in the output. The laptop has a S-video out port on the back of the computer. I have got all the necessary cables to hook it up to the DVD player, but I don't know how to turn the port on.

If anyone can help I would appreciate it.

As soon as we figure out how to download this program on to the forum, then Lynn will let everyone know...stay tuned
