Broadcast Cue Screen

TX clock, production state, camera cues, graphics prompts and director messages to talent — in a clean display built for live streaming and broadcast teams.

Display screens are designed for landscape — rotate your phone or use a larger screen for the full layout.

The problem

Live streaming and broadcast productions need talent to know when they're live, what camera to look at, when a VT is running, and what's coming next. Professional broadcast tally and cue systems are expensive and complex — overkill for smaller productions, live streamers, and hybrid events.

How ShowPrompt solves it

ShowPrompt's broadcast display puts TX clock, on-air state (Live / VT / Break / OOV), camera indicators, graphics cues and director messages on any screen in your production environment — controlled from the same laptop running the rest of your show.

Features

What's included

🕐

TX clock

Transmission clock showing elapsed on-air time. Accurate, large and always visible to talent and floor managers.

📡

On-air state display

Clear LIVE / VT / BREAK / OOV / STANDBY state displayed prominently. Talent and crew always know the current production state.

🎥

Camera indicators

Tell talent which camera is active or what shot is next — helping them look at the right place during live broadcasts.

🎨

Graphics cues

Push graphics cue prompts to talent — lower thirds, name straps, titles — so they're prepared for on-screen graphics.

💬

Director messages

Send text messages from the director or producer directly to the talent's screen in real time.

Local network, no internet

Runs on your local production network. Reliable even without internet access at the venue.

FAQ

Questions about Broadcast

Is this a tally light replacement?
ShowPrompt's broadcast display shows production state and camera indicators on a screen. It is a software display tool, not a hardware tally light system. For productions that need a physical tally light, ShowPrompt complements rather than replaces hardware tally.
Can it work alongside a vision mixer or streaming software?
ShowPrompt runs independently on its own laptop or alongside your streaming software. It's controlled manually by a producer or director — it doesn't auto-sync with OBS, vMix or hardware switchers.
Can the talent control their own screen?
No — the display is read-only for talent. The controller (operated by the director or show caller) pushes all information to the display.
Is this suitable for corporate live streaming?
Yes. ShowPrompt is popular for corporate live events, hybrid conferences, and live-streamed presentations where talent needs clear on-air cuing.
