Stage 4: Exporting Plays
Step 1: Export Plays from SkyCoach
Enter the event that you want to export the plays for. If each of the plays loads a picture, and you are able to watch the plays, then that means that the plays have been downloaded onto your iPad and are ready to be exported.
If the plays do NOT load (either the plays say "No Image Available" or the plays themselves do not play when selected), then you can connect your iPad to your SkyCoach network to download them again. If you continue to have issues with your plays not appearing, please contact our support line at (318)-629-5701.
At the bottom of the screen, select the up arrow icon. In the popup, there are two choices: SkyCoach Cloud, and Files for Hudl/Others.
Files for Hudl/Others
After choosing this option, a popup will appear explaining how many plays were exported. Make sure that this number matches the actual amount of plays that you recorded to ensure that there wasn't an issue with exporting them. The popup gives more information about what to do if this occurs, but if you still have trouble exporting the correct amount of plays, please contact our support at (318)-629-5701.
NOTE: The "Other" mentioned in the popup is the name of the angle that the plays were exported from. If you had multiple angles, it would display how many plays were from each angle; e.g., "10 Wide, 10 Tight, and 10 End Zone videos were exported..."
Step 2: Locate Exported Files
Once exported using the Files for Hudl/Others method, you can find the plays in the Files app of your iPad, then navigating to On My iPad >> SkyCoach >> export. There will be a folder for each angle that was recorded, as well as a CSV file for each angle that contains the data/tags that were marked for each play. Enter the folder for the first angle that you want to upload.
NOTE: Whenever you export plays using the Files for Hudl/Others option, the previous contents of the "export" folder will be overwritten. Once you have exported plays from an event, make sure to upload or make a copy of the files in a different location to ensure that you still have access to them without having to export them again once they're overwritten.
Step 3: Uploading/Moving Exported Files
To upload the clips to Hudl via iPad, the iPad must have iOS 13.1 or higher in order to have apps open side-by-side. You will also be using the browser form of Hudl (i.e., visiting the Hudl website through a browser app like Chrome or Safari), NOT the Hudl app.
The video linked here explains the process of exporting to Hudl via the iPad, but a written explanation has also been provided below:
You will want to swipe up from the bottom of your screen, hold down on your browser app, and drag it to the left side of the screen. Your iPad should now have both the browser and the files app open at the same time.
On the browser side, navigate to where Hudl lets you upload files. On the files side, choose "Select," then "Select All," then hold down on one of the plays until it shows an icon with the number of plays selected. Once the icon appears, drag and drop it onto the Hudl side, which should begin the upload process.
After the first angle's videos are uploaded, there will be an option on Hudl to add another angle. Select that button, then in the Files app, navigate to the next angle that you want to add, and follow the same process until all of the angles you want to add have been uploaded.
Once all of your video files have been uploaded, follow Hudl's intercut process. Once the videos have been merged, you can add the data you tagged to the plays by selecting the three dots in the bottom-right of the player screen, selecting "Import Data," selecting the "Choose File" button, then "Browse," then navigating back to the folder with your exported videos (On My iPad >> SkyCoach >> export), and selecting any of the angle data sheets (they should all have the same data on them, so it doesn't matter which angle you choose).
Once you choose a file, select the "Import Breakdown Data" button, and two columns will appear, which is comparing the normal values that Hudl has against the data in the sheet. Most of the values should match since SkyCoach uses the same names. For any columns that don't match, you can either map them to a different Hudl column, or you can select "Don't Import This Info." Once this is complete, select "Import Data Into Hudl."
