RideMX Live Motocross Broadcasts

A one-camera motocross broadcast that looks and runs like a much bigger production.

RideMX streams Florida motocross races live to YouTube and Facebook. The track has no reliable internet, the racing runs all day, and the show has to look like RideMX — not like a webcam pointed at a field. EMAPAR designed and runs the whole chain, from the camera at the track to the graphics viewers see at home.

The brief.

Motocross is hard to stream. Tracks are out in the country with weak or no internet, a race day runs for hours with dozens of motos across many classes, and the gaps between motos are long. A plain camera feed loses viewers fast.

RideMX wanted a broadcast that holds up for a full day: steady video from the track, graphics that tell viewers which class is on the gate, replays of the moments worth seeing twice, and something better than dead air between motos.

The RideMX stinger — the branded wipe used for every scene change.

From the track to YouTube.

The camera operator is at the track; the production runs back at the office.

Camera at the track

A professional camera sends its feed over bonded cellular — several connections combined — using encrypted SRT, a protocol built to survive a shaky link.

Relay at the office

A small server receives the feed, records every event for later, and raises an alert if the camera drops.

Production

OBS adds the graphics, replays, break music, and sponsor cards, driven from a custom web dashboard.

Live everywhere

One production goes out to YouTube and Facebook at the same time.

A graphics package in RideMX’s own brand.

Every graphic is built from RideMX’s colors, fonts, and logo, so the broadcast feels like part of the brand rather than a generic overlay. The operator fires them from a dashboard — or from the controller at the track.

Instant replay, marked from the track.

The best moments in a moto happen fast. The camera operator presses one button to mark them, and the production saves the last several seconds of the broadcast as a clip.

  • Full-screen replays with a REPLAY tab over the clip.
  • Picture-in-picture replays over the live shot, so viewers never miss the racing.
  • Moto recaps that string the marked moments together after the checkered flag.
  • Transitions and labels built into the graphics package, so replays look intentional.

A controller built for one-handed use at the track.

The camera operator can’t sit at a computer, so EMAPAR built a handheld controller that does the producer’s job from the camera position. A joystick steps through classes and races, a button marks replays, and a small screen shows what is on air, the next race, and the state of the replay system.

It runs on a small single-board computer inside a custom 3D-printed housing and talks to the production dashboard over the internet connection at the track.

Proof for sponsors.

Sponsors want to know they were actually seen. The production logs every sponsor card and lower third as it airs, with a screenshot, and after each event builds a recap for each sponsor: when their placements ran and how the stream performed.

That turns “we’ll mention you on the stream” into something a sponsor can see and renew.

Not just motocross.

The same approach — reliable video, graphics in your brand, and a production that runs without fuss — works for church services, banquets and award nights, graduations, conferences, and community events.
