MCG | IPTV Suite 2026

At Lumen8, our IPTV network powers the concourse screens at the MCG – connecting fans and brands in real time. To ensure your content is across all screens we use the below five layouts.

PLEASE NOTE: You can allow elements to extend up to 50px beyond the content edge, this area cannot be filled entirely and is intended for minor creative extensions only.

Alpha and Luma keying

To allow live match footage to appear beneath your graphics, files must include alpha transparency (for static images) or be Luma Key ready (for video assets).

When using Luma Keying:

  • Any pure black (RGB 0,0,0) areas will key out, revealing the live feed beneath.
  • Avoid using perfect black in your design — instead, slightly lift the tone to maintain visibility.
  • Do not fade to black at the start or end of your animation.

An After Effects template is available to preview how your Luma Keying will appear in venue playback.

See below considerations to ensure your content displays effectively across stadium IPTV.

To ensure maximum brand exposure, ensure the logo is visible at all times.
Using the maximum pixel height for logos + text will ensure your message is legible.
Make your message memorable. Often the most memorable animations are the simplest.
