September 9th, 2026
Hi everybody, here is the update September 9 2026.
Large Scroll (Scroll Pro and up) are now divided by sections to allow the Animations and Player Cards to display properly

The standard animation has been improved to be smoother and a little fancier.

ActionShots are now automatically centered by ConnectedRoom Images API so they display properly on portrait screen and Scroll.

September 6th, 2026
Hi everybody, here is what changed in this weekโs update.
Fixed a bug causing game slots to be frozen after a game ends, preventing any game from being put into that slot.
Fixed a bug causing Calendar to be constantly desynchronised. The Calendar is now cached to CDN as well as pre-generated every 20 minutes for Todayโs games, 2 hours for Tomorrowโs games and 6 hours for Weekโs games. Navigating the Calendar will now be way faster.
Recent volume increase due to football seasons starting has caused a lot of strain on our servers. A new node has been deployed in Montreal to act as a distributed cache. It is now separated from main caching servers. It aims at accelerating the app, as well as giving breathing room to some of the other components, mainly the Scroll feed generation that kept producing black void due to capacity limit being constantly reached.
24,000+ videos have been deleted from our infrastructure and new ones are being generated in a better format to save on bandwidth, storage and allow us to launch more video animations in the near future. Thank you for your understanding on the missing videos. This is a long process and 10 rendering computers are currently running to render these thousands of video files.
Home Assistant integration does not require the Complete plan anymore. You now only need Standard to be able to sync your Home Assistant devices.

August 16th, 2026
Hi everybody, this update brings a lot of changes on how ConnectedRoom works behind the scene, as well as a entirely rebuilt Sports Data Platform.
Part of the massive platform update allowed us to add 200+ new leagues. In order to facilitate navigation, we grouped each league by sports & regions.

We also added a search bar for leagues and teams.
Our new data backend not only allowed us to gather more data, but also gave us many more ways of using it.
Historical data & projections are now possible, so Player Tracker will receive many updates, as well as new screens will be developed with ease.

While developing the new Player Tracker screen, we decided it would be a good idea to merge the Fantasy Tracker and Player Tracker together.
The Fantasy Tracker also got updated, and more features will be added for it as well in the upcoming weeks.

A new Scoreboard mode has been added allowing you to cycle between scoreboard types on a single screen.

In the Cycling Mode, you have the ability to add multiple slides. Each slide can be set to a different Scoreboard type and have a different duration in seconds.

We have switched data providers for baseball, and it is now 35% faster. It comes with one caveat:
Now that the speed is fast, runs are getting triggered before it can be detected as a homerun, so every score is now triggered as a run.
We understand that homerun triggers are very important, so a new Baseball mode is in development for next update: Accurate mode.
A run is detected, but nothing triggers yet
ConnectedRoom will wait and take its time to detect whether it is an homerun or a run
Accurate, but slower
A run is detected, it triggers immediately
ConnectedRoom does not wait for the run type to arrive, therefore Run actions are triggered no matter what.
Very fast, 35% faster than before, but only one trigger is possible.
Losing the distinction of scoring type in exchange of speed.
The new provider switch now allows to have access to historical data as well as very fast real-time player statistics.
Baseball is now supported in the Player Tracker and in Scroll Single Game Mode.
UFC also has a new data provider making it 15% faster.
There are about 12 bugs that have been fixed and more quality of life updates are coming for it.
New data provider for motorsports making NASCAR 15% faster, adding support for IndyCar and bringing F1 back.

With the football preseason starting, it was time to upgrade the football Actionview to a fresher look.

January 19th, 2026
Hi everybody, here is the update for January 19, 2026.
You now have the ability to track player stats of a single game on the Scroll (including the ones on scoreboards, except for SportsTicker). This mode has been developed to allow focusing on one game for when there is not a lot of activity happening in sports, especially when big championships are monopolizing the calendar, like the SuperBowl or Stanley Cup Final.

USL Championship has been added to ConnectedRoom

Game end Actions should now trigger correctly.
The clock for soccer should now display correctly.
Calendar will now keep in sync with datasources.
RSS Feeds should now stay up to date. More features for news are incoming, including custom RSS feeds.
Team logo should now display correctly on player cards.
This bug should be fixed by now. If it still happens to you, switch from Live to Test and back Live.
The Scroll keys are now stored in the cloud, making the pairing be done once and never asking again. This fix will be applied to all scoreboards soon.
Double triggering seems to be fixed. If it keeps happening, let me know.
Scoreboard audio playing twice after activating audio on a scoreboard should not happen again.
A bug preventing scoreboards to keep their states at server boot has been fixed.
Scroll activation is now 100% automatic and subscription should be added to your account at activation.
The Hoosiers are now synced correctly and videos have been generated for tonightโs game.
A bug preventing Philips Hue, GE Cync and Samsung SmartThings from connecting when using the PWA app on Android and iOS has been fixed.
Here is the list of the known issues still remaining to be fixed:
Announcers: announcers are saying things weirdly sometimes.
Announcers: American Football quarter starts are delayed by 3 minutes
Basketball: SEC is missing from division selection on the Scroll
Live Bracket: Live Bracket is all wrong
January 9th, 2026

Hi everybody. It has been quiet lately, but many silent updates have been deployed throughout the platform. New features are incoming now that the maintenance is over.
The Live Bracket has been fixed for NFL and NCAA Football.

A major bug caused data source to de-synchronize causing many issues with logos, audio and videos not populating, or even teams being tangled between different leagues, like Ole Misse VS Miami Dolphins (the matchup we all wanted to see). Audio tracks, data accuracy has been recovered for North American leagues. An in-depth review will be done for the entirety of the supported leagues soon.
1st Down, 3rd Down and Powerplay will not trigger anymore if you have Disable Automations enabled.
When triggering a 1st Down, 3rd Down or Powerplay manually using buttons, ConnectedRoom will lock the respecting trigger for the next 2 minutes to prevent double-triggering from the data feed.
ConnectedRoom OS can now pair to a Bluetooth speaker to be used for audio. ConnectedRoom OS will soon have a landing page with guides on how to download, format and install. It will have a public release next week.
When linking a Scroll to your account, you will automatically receive a free year of subscription. A new licensing system is now in-place. Same system will be able to be used for upcoming future ConnectedRoom products.
We also improved the customer experience, with automated tracking numbers, updates and guides.
Fantasy has been running badly, but major improvements have been done to ensure adequate syncing. Due to high volume and thousands of leagues being synced, it became evident that a partnership needs to be done to ensure this feature to be working correctly.
ESPN, Sleeper and Yahoo Sports should all be stable for now, until volume becomes too high again.
When upgrading the infrastructure, some of the integrations disconnected, especially Sonos, Yahoo Fantasy and GE Cync.
If you are facing these issues, you can navigate to Integrations โ Connect. Once it tells you it is connected, it is not. Click disconnect and re-connect your integration in order to re-establish the syncing.
A bug with sequential mode has been fixed to prevent looping cards and incredibly annoying black space / void being created. ConnectedRoom Scroll aims to be scrolling 24/7 with no black space or void. If you find that void is being displayed, let me know; the goal is to have 0 black space or void during the scrolling process. This is a priority to make it scroll endlessly without void.
A bug has been fixed to improve this issue. Improvement will continuously be done.
The frontend of Scoreboards has been completely segmented and optimized to be modular. With the continuous growth of features, the frontend assets had reach some limits for some brands of smart TVs and other less-powerful devices, causing scoreboards to blackout on these devices.
Modularization of all the frontend will mostly fix these issues. If you still have issues with getting a black screen while attempting to create a scoreboard on some of these devices, let me know.
Field goals has been delayed even more. Due to our partnership with a data provider, speed is always improving for all leagues. This caused side effects of Field Goals being way too quick. We delayed field goals on purpose by 10 seconds to even them out with the touchdowns.
Hockey data accuracy and triggering speed have been improved by 2 seconds. We are now reaching the expected pre-broadcast speed we always hoped for. You may need to re-adjust your delay slightly due to triggering speed becoming faster and faster.
You now have the ability to disable the bottom scrolling banner of the Scroll to go full screen.
Scroll shipping dates are now dynamic on the site. If you plan to purchase one, feel free to consult the delivery schedule on the site: https://connectedroom.io/scroll
Now that all these are fixed, features will start coming quickly. There are about 5 major features coming by March.
December 2nd, 2025
Hi everybody, here is the update for December 2, 2025. I am preparing many updates before the year ends, so stay tuned for more.
You can now fine-tune animations per trigger for better control of animations.

You can now disable specific animations.

You can customize the type and the duration of each animation. For example, if you want to shorten the duration of the animations for Basketball.

An update for commercial users has been deployed for Advertising Slides.
You can now add a pause between advertising slides by adjusting the Separation Duration on each slide. This allows you to let the ConnectedRoom Scoreboards display in-between promotional material.

November 21st, 2025
Hi everybody. Thank you for your continuous feedback; this helps improve ConnectedRoom with new features on a weekly basis.
Here are some of the requested features that have been implemented this week.
There are 2 new triggers for football with which you can trigger audio, videos & lights.
You can now automate things when there is a first down.

You can now automate things when there is a third down. Practical for defence audio and animations. Please note that Third Down is inverted, meaning that a third down from the possessing team will trigger the Action for the defending team.

A possession indicator has been added for Football.

When the current drive information becomes available, that indicator displays the current drive information.

Because ConnectedRoom has a lot of teams, especially for NCAA with full Division 1 and Division 2, it became hard to keep track of some important games.
You now have the ability to filter the leagues per divisions, group or conference on SportsTicker, SportsGrid and ConnectedRoom Scroll.


Player Tracker has been fixed and improved for it to me more intuitive.
Players that are currently playing will always be pinned at the top and will display a blinking โlive indicatorโ.
The players that are not playing will be darker and live stats are replaced by seasonal stats.

Keep the feedback coming and lets build the best possible product. Here is whatโs coming:
More customization for SportsTicker/Scroll
More triggers
Video animations for the new First Down/Third Down triggers
UFC Update
November 14th, 2025
Hi everybody, here is the update for November 14, 2025.
Since the launch of ConnectedRoom Scroll, 3 firmware updates have been deployed. You can now update your Scroll from within the app.

If you have any issues with your Scroll, feel free to contact us. We are available quickly to fix issues you may have.
You can now customize the brightness of your Scroll since version 0.6.9

You now have the ability to change units for weather, or disabling it completely.

The games you currently sync to are now delayed on the Scroll as well. In order to prevent spoilers, the game you sync with in the app will also delay on the Scroll.

SportsGrid has been improved for faster data and bug causing retriggering has been fixed.
Wifi should now reconnect on boot. Wifi connection now has more feedback instead of freezing on the setup screen.
Many bugs have been fixed for GE Cync integration. The experience should now be much smoother.

GE Cync will now restore to last state correctly.
Added support for GE Cync smart plugs.
Fix to make GE Cync stay on single color after the effect is completed.
Added support for Turn Off after effect.
Scroll/ConnectedRoom OS - Audio Support
Scroll/ConnectedRoom OS - Timezone customization
UFC major update
October 30th, 2025

Hi everybody, here is the update for October 30.
You can now track any player from any supported leagues, even outside of Fantasy.


The Fantasy Tracker should now update correctly.
A bug causing SportsTicker to freeze has been fixed.
Video Playback has been switched back to HLS.
Caching has been completely redesigned in an attempt to reduce heavy bandwidth. ConnectedRoom is serving millions of requests every day, and is serving terabytes of data for Scoreboards, Lights, Audio and Video features.
There is now an additional layer of cache that runs on the device itself before hitting our servers. It should also fix the running issues with Fantasy Tracker not updating due to caching.
An improvement has been done to improve triggering speed by about 3 to 5 seconds. Not only it should now trigger faster, but it should also be WAY MORE constant with less variation in triggering speed.
Field Goals are now delayed by a good 5 seconds on purpose in an attempt to even them with the touchdowns. We decreased the priority for the fallback data provider to allow the main data provider to take over, offering less variation in data speed.
ActionView will now work for late night games. A bug caused by timezone was preventing data to be mapped correctly between several data providers, causing ActionView to cease working for games past midnight EST.
GE Cync not resetting
GE Cync not respecting single color mode
NCAA Hockey teams mapping completely wrong
Low quality logos for many leagues
Fantrax support for fantasy hockey
CBS Football support for fantasy football
