Installing the Desktop Client in your PC​

Results are uploaded using a small program that must be installed on your computer. We provide an installer for Windows 11. Simply follow the installer instructions.

For older Windows versions, such as Windows 10, you can still try the installer. You might encounter a warning that the program contains malware, but don’t worry, this is due to the absence of a digital signature and not because we are a real malware.

If you are using other operating systems, such as Linux or macOS, or if your older Windows installation fails, you can still use the client via manual installation.

Managing the Client​

Follow the next steps to upload files:

  1. Check Connection to Server:

    Open the O-Replay Desktop Client, click the "Check" button and wait until connection is established.

  2. Login to Event:

    Paste the Secret Key (check out how to get it here), then click the "Login" button and select the stage you want to upload data to.

  3. Upload data to Server:

    Choose the directory where you will export files to, then press "Run". The client will now monitor this folder for any XML or csv files. When you export start times or results from your timekeeping software, the client will read the file and it will upload the data to O-Replay. Files will be automatically deleted after successful uploads.

tip

The option "Split by class" makes a different connection to the server for each class. This option is recommended for low-speed or unstable connections (specially on big events).
