With the requirement of the (paid) Mulppy application to view the 2020 versions (and possibly future versions) of UEFA's Refereeing Assistance Program, I have created a simple GUI in Python to view the clips and associated technical decision (and if applicable, UEFA's explanation of the decision). The video test functionality of the original application has not been included. Program files available from Dutch Referee. To use, download uefa_viewer.exe
and provide the file path to the Resource folder.
Python version used: Python 3.7
Use the package manager pip to install the below packages
pip install PySimpleGUI
pip install Pillow
pip install vlc
To allow wider use without the need for Python or package installations, an executable file for Windows machines is also provided, uefa_viewer.exe
. Used pysimplegui-exemaker to convert to executable.
Using the application is very similar to using previous versions of UEFA's Referee Assistance Programs. However, when the application is first launched, the user must specify the location of the Resource folder. Below is the file structure of the 2020-1 version. Hence the file path you must navigate to in the pop-up window will be ...\UEFA-2020-1\UEFA-2020-1\Resource
. For example C:/Users/jpowe/Desktop/UEFA-2020-1/UEFA-2020-1/Resource
.
