So this is the instructions for the scoreboard: https://github.com/MLB-LED-Scoreboard/mlb-led-scoreboard/wiki

First and foremost, thank you to Tommy Farley’s MLB LED Scoreboard Project for the inspiration + most of the code base. My brother and I have been wanting a CFB equivalent of this forever, so we decided to build our own using a Raspberry Pi Zero and a 32 * 64 LED Matrix. Here is a link to the video demo. If you just so happen to have the same equipment, great! Here is our GitHub repository with the code + instructions on making your own. We’re also looking to sell these in the future (once the semiconductor shortage has hopefully settled down)— if you’re interested please let us know! As always, feedback from you all is great appreciated on how we can make this better.

About $200 in parts, runs out of a Pi.

I help maintain the MLB LED scoreboard project and we don't recommend anything less than 5A for a single matrix, and you're running 6 of them. In fact, the tutorial you linked suggests that you are way underpowering your matrices: https://learn.adafruit.com/32x16-32x32-rgb-led-matrix/powering

quick paste of an old how to file i made however heres the github link gh

I bought the RGB matrix and Raspberry Pi and assembled it. Just followed the process here to get the software running - https://github.com/MLB-LED-Scoreboard/mlb-led-scoreboard

You can look at the code/follow steps to build one yourself here: https://github.com/MLB-LED-Scoreboard/mlb-led-scoreboard. It's pretty straight forward if you have a technical background but if not it might take you a bit to get up to speed with the raspberry pi.

It supports a bunch of different matrix sizes, requires no assembly, and is free, so developers of software like the MLB LED scoreboard don't have to set up and maintain physical hardware to maintain the project. Consumers of those types of projects get the same benefits so you can run the emulated version without needing to pick up a soldering iron.

If you subscribe to MLB.TV, there are command line tools like mlbv that will let you sign in and download the game as a video file. You can do it anytime with the archive game for the rest of the season, so you don’t have to worry about recording it live. https://github.com/kmac/mlbv

Guys, my weird linux mlb.tv setup that lets me watch (my legal paid subscription) in whatever media player I want (I use mpv) isn't working today because of the weird resumed game thing. Now I have to watch on the mlb website and it's fucking awful.

Usually I'd recommend Kodi but that's obviously not an option on Roku. If you really want to watch on Roku but avoid the MLB app right now, you could run a Python program like mlbv to download the game to a network share or stream it to a port: https://github.com/kmac/mlbv/issues/22#issuecomment-425649277

There's a Python program called mlbv that should allow you to log in and access older games: https://github.com/kmac/mlbv

Or a tool like mlbv which lets you download archive games, so you can watch them in any media player on your network: https://github.com/kmac/mlbv

Also, if you are on a PC, you could install Kodi and the unofficial MLB.TV addon to get the ad-free streams that way. There are also utilities like mlbv (https://github.com/kmac/mlbv) which can download games to a file and/or play them through VLC.
